However, the p-distance (number of base differences per site from between sequences) is 17 %, and the +K 2 P +interspecific distance between them is 19.2 %, enough to separate them as independent species. Considering the partial +COI +(658 pb), the p-distance is 16.3 %, and the +K 2 P +interspecific distance between them is 18.6 %. As previously discussed, earlier studies have found that the interspecific distance for +Collembola +species usually ranges from 16.35 % to 24.55 %. ( +Porco et al. 2012 +; +Yu et al. 2016 +; +Sun et al. 2018 +). + + + + +Etymology. + + +The species honors Dr. Eduard Handschin (1894–1962), who described the genus + +Mastigoceras + +and its single species, + +M. camponoti + +. + + + + +Distribution and habitat. + + + +Mastigoceras + +is only found in +Brazil +, with previous records from the Amazon and Atlantic forests and the Caatinga biomes ( +Cassagnau 1963 +; +Cassagnau and Oliveira 1992 +; +Mendonça et al. 2009 +; +Bellini 2014 +; +Cipola et al. 2019 +; +Zeppelini et al. 2024 +). +Handschin’s (1924) +original description does not list the municipality where the type material was sampled, mentioning only “ south of Minas ” (southern region of +Minas Gerais state +). Thus, it is unclear if his specimens of + +Mastigoceras + +were previously sampled from the Cerrado biome. The record of + +Mastigoceras handschini + +sp. nov. +from a transitional zone between the Caatinga and Cerrado biomes represents the second record of the genus from the northeastern region of +Brazil +, with + +M. camponoti + +having been previously recorded from the state of +Ceará +( +Bellini 2014 +; +Zeppelini et al. 2024 +). + + +The new species was found at “ Cachoeira do Urubu-Rei ” (Urubu-Rei waterfall), located in the rural region of Pedro II municipality, +Piauí state +, +Brazil +. The region has minimum of 23.1 ° C and maximum temperatures of 29.3 ° C, with a hot and humid tropical rainy climate classified as “ As ” according to the Köppen-Geiger system ( +Kottek et al. 2006 +). The collection site is located at an altitude of +603 m +above sea level and is covered by riparian forest vegetation following a perennial watercourse, featuring evergreen broadleaf plants, bryophytes, and pteridophytes. Unlike the type material of + +M. camponoti + +, which was sampled from ant nests, specimens of + +Mastigoceras handschini + +sp. nov. +were sampled above the leaf litter using pitfall traps and entomological aspirators (Fig. +8 +). + + + + + + +Environmental characteristics of Urubu-Rei waterfall and its surroundings, where specimens of + +Mastigoceras handschini + +sp. nov. +were collected +A +pitfall traps covered by plastic plates used to collect the specimens from the leaf litter +B +riparian forest vegetation, with the presence of evergreen broadleaf plants +C +sampling site, highlighting the rocky floor and vegetation adapted to the site’s humid conditions +D +view of Urubu-Rei waterfall. + + + + + +Remarks. + + +We could revise +one female +specimen of + +M. camponoti + +from the southern region of +Minas Gerais state +, Mariana municipality, but the quality of the slide prevented us from redescribing it this time and draw further comparisons between the species. Even so, we could confirm its dorsal macrochaetotaxy is mostly the same of + +Mastigoceras handschini + +sp. nov. +, with the exception of the anterior collar on +Th +. II. The morphology of this specimen matches +Mari-Mutt’s 1980 a +observation of + +M. camponoti + +, who stated +Mastigocerini +has nine or ten +mac +in the collarette ( +Mari-Mutt 1980 a +, pg. 457). Our revised specimen has ten anterior +mac +on the collar plus +a 2 +and +a 5 +more posteriorly ¸ totaling 12 +mac +on +Th +. II +a +series. We could observe in + +M. camponoti + +the distribution of body scales, also present on head (only a few were observed), as noted by +Mari-Mutt (1978) +, and on anterior and medial regions of +Th +. II (tergum densely covered by scales). Other features which would be useful to compare the species like ventral tube, manubrial plate and trochanteral organ chaetotaxy could not be clearly analyzed due to the slide quality. + + + +Mastigoceras handschini + +sp. nov. +is remarkably similar to + +M. camponoti + +in color pattern, size of antennae and overall chaetotaxy. However, it differs from the latter species especially by: scales absent on dorsal head, +Th +. II anterior and medial regions, and +Abd +. IV (vs. present in + +M. camponoti + +), +Th +.
