Since no other specimens labelled as + +Trichotaphe phaeothina + +were traced in the collection, we conclude that the three above specimens represent the type series of + +Trichotaphe phaeothina +. + +The external characters (segment 2 of labial palpus with triangular dorsal tuft of hairs) and female genitalia (distinct sclerotization of ductus bursae that extends to corpus bursae, and presence of accessory bursa) justify the assignment of the species to + +Dichomeris +. + +Therefore, we herewith transfer this species to the latter genus. The species is distinct in having a brown forewing with black spots along the apex and the costal margin is suffused with yellow. It slightly resembles + +D. craspedotis + +, but in the latter the costal margin of the forewing is strongly convex at base (not convex in + +D. phaeothina + +), the apex of the forewing is brown (spotted with black in + +D. phaeothina + +), and black spot at 3/4 of costal margin is absent (present in + +D. phaeothina + +). The female genitalia with short apophyses anteriores in combination with entirely sclerotized ductus bursae are characteristic. + +Dichomeris dysnotata +( +Janse, 1954 +) + +from +South Africa +remotely resembles + +D. phaeothina + +, but differs from it by the broader ductus bursae and the rounded rather than ovate corpus bursae. + + +Female genitalia +(described here for the first time, +Fig. 14d +).

The genital capsule is however closest to + +A. levis + +( +Fig. 12 +) which differs from the new species in the smaller size (ca. two-thirds the size), the shallower medial emargination of the uncus, the shorter (ca. half the length) and broader (about twice the width) valves, the broader, shorter saccus and the phallus which is almost half the length. Photographs have been examined of another male specimen and a potential female from Dzanga-Sangha National Park, +CAR +in the collection of the late Philippe Annoyer (M. Libert, pers. comm.). This female specimen is similar in appearance to the female of + +A. levis + +sharing an all brown-upperside and a grey (rather than brown as in + +A. irumu + +) underside but the dark brown discal markings are well-defined on both wings (like the male of the new species) and the antemarginal white band on the hindwing upperside is absent. + + + + +Remarks. +The +holotype +and +paratype +of the new species were both captured on the same night at a MV light trap at Mbeli camp ( +Fig. 38 +), within a small clearing in the forest. The specimens were attracted to the light during a very heavy downpour together with numerous other butterfly species belonging to various families, presumably all of the individuals having been disturbed by the strong winds and rain. Numerous other butterflies were collected at light traps throughout the time in the field, of which several were unique to this sampling technique. + + + + + +Derivatio nominis +. + +The new species is named after the Sangha River which flows through the region where the only known records of the species originate. + + + + +Distribution. +The new species is so far only known with certainty from +three male +specimens captured in PNNN and Dzanga-Sangha National Park, +CAR +, and it is potentially endemic to the Sangha-Congo interfluvial zone. + + + + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/59/2E/87/592E8799FFDBFFC0FF4CF9E4B8E95206.xml b/data/59/2E/87/592E8799FFDBFFC0FF4CF9E4B8E95206.xml new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..fe58457d460 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/59/2E/87/592E8799FFDBFFC0FF4CF9E4B8E95206.xml @@ -0,0 +1,516 @@ + + + +Descriptions of three new species of Lycaenidae (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) from Parc National de Nouabalé-Ndoki, Republic of Congo with additional notes on little-known species + + + +Author + +Takano, Hitoshi + +text + + +Zootaxa + + +2024 + +2024-08-19 + + +5496 + + +2 + + +214 +230 + + + + +http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5496.2.4 + +journal article +10.11646/zootaxa.5496.2.4 +1175-5326 +13346625 +D690291D-7BD2-43D1-95E8-81B3F82D988A + + + + + + + +Neurellipes smithi + +sp. nov. + + + + + + +( +Figs 19–22 +, +26 +) + + + + + + +Holotype + +♂ +( +ANHRT +): + + + +“ +REPUBLIC OF CONGO +352m +/ Sangha Prov., Nouabalé-Ndoki / National Park, Ndoki formation / (secondary forest) / +02°12’47.7”N +, +16°23’45.8”E +/ +29.ix–01.x.2022 +General Coll. / Dérozier, V., Fouka, B., / Kirk-Spriggs, A., Takano, H. / +ANHRT +:2022.14 // ANHRTUK / 00260669” + + + +Paratypes + +( +13♂♂ +2♀♀ +): + + + + +REPUBLIC OF CONGO + +: same data as holotype ( +2♂♂ +ANHRT +) + +; + +Mbeli +camp, +Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park +, + +372m + +, +02°14’23.8”N +, +16°23’52.1”E +, + +1–10.x.2022 + +, leg. +V.

Upperside: ground colour of head, thorax and abdomen black.Antennae black, with white scaling ventrally at the base of each segment. Frons with a narrow row of white scales running adjacent to the eye. Palps longer than diameter of eye with white scaling. Abdominal segments with dark greyish-brown scaling along posterior margin of segments giving the abdomen a slightly banded appearance. Ground colour of both wings dark brown; terminal line black; cilia greyish-brown. Forewing costa gently arcuate, rounded at apex; outer margin gently arcuate. Discal marking ovoid, longitudinally elongate, pale-orange in colour, occupying the dorsal half of space 1 and distally to within +3 mm +of the outer margin, space +2 in +its entirety except for a +2 mm +outer margin, and the base of space 3. Hindwing arcuate, with three +1 mm +long, greyish-brown ‘tails’ protruding from the outer margin along veins 1a, 2 and 3. Ground colour slightly paler dorsally, from space 7 to 8. The cell, spaces 1–2 and the inner margin with long light-brown ciliate scales. Discal marking pale orange, in the form of a submarginal band running broadly parallel with the marginal band from the dorsal half of space 1a to the ventral half of space 4. Marginal band formed of black spots boldly surrounded proximally and laterally with pale orange and a thin white fascia parallel to the outer margin distally; spots in space 1 conjoined, the proximal margin strongly emarginate medially. Both discal and marginal bands strongly bisected with heavy black scaling along the veins. Underside. Head and thorax covered in greyish-white scales. Legs dark brown with a dusting of white scales, with a concentration of white scales at the base of each tarsal segment. Abdomen with dense cream ciliate scales. Ground colour of both wings pale brownish-grey with white bilineate bands and fasciae; discal triangle with pale-orange marking from upperside weakly showing through; terminal line dark brown. Forewing basal band with two lines converging dorsally, filled with darker brown scales and in space 1 deep charcoal. Discal band defined with dark brown on the inner edges. Postdiscal band indented, defined with dark brown forming spots on its inner edge. Antemarginal and Submarginal lines indistinct, broadening towards ventral margin; the space in between filled with dark brown scaling from space 3 to ventral margin. Marginal line fine, indistinct and interrupted at veins. Hindwing with basal and discal bands irrorated internally with darker scales. Postmedial band indented, defined with dark brown forming spots on its inner edge. Antemarginal fascia arcuate, diffuse. Marginal fascia mirroring upperside, but the black spots replaced with the ground colour and the orange replaced with white except for in spaces 1 and 2; these two spots with a ring of iridescent green scaling. + +Male genitalia. Uncus robust, indented with a broad concavity medially. Subuncus long and fine, almost rightangled medially with hooked apices. Valve rectangular, the distal margin finely serrate with two sharp projections ventro-distally, the ventral projection longer than the dorsal one. Saccus long, its margins evenly arcuate in ventral view. Aedeagus almost three times as long as valve, distally narrower and tapered at apex. +Female. Similar to male but paler and fringe longer. Outer margin of forewing more arcuate. Hindwing upperside marginal band extending to space 6 becoming paler and more indistinct towards the costa. + + + +Diagnosis. +The new species is very similar in appearance to the sympatric + +Neurellipes ngoko ngoko +( +Stempffer, 1962 +) + +( +Figs 15–18 +), but in both sexes of the latter, the upperside markings are a darker reddish-orange, and the hindwing discal marking is larger often extending into space 5 and reaching the cell in spaces 2 and 3 combined with limited fine black scaling along the veins giving the appearance of a continuous patch. The underside ground colour of + +N. ngoko + +is a darker brownish-grey, and the dark brown spots in the postdiscal bands are much better defined. Markings are however variable in both species and the development of the upperside orange markings can be heavily reduced ( +Figs 15, 19 +) or strongly expressed ( +Figs 17, 21 +). In the male genitalia, the general configuration is very similar but in + +N. ngoko + +( +Fig. 25 +), the capsule is larger, the ventro-distal projections of the valve are nearly twice as long, and the concavity between them is broader. Although the upperside markings and colouration are different, + +N. rufomarginata +( +Bethune-Baker, 1910 +) + +( +Fig. 24 +) shares a similar genital ground plan but differs in the shorter valves, finer ventro-distal projections of the valve and a narrower concavity between them ( +Fig. 27 +). Intraspecific PWDs of the new species were 0.0–0.2% (n=5) and diverged interspecifically from + +N. ngoko + +by 2.5–3.5% (n=6). + + + + +Remarks. +A long series of + +Neurellipes + +specimens with the elongate orange oval marking on the forewing was captured, in part due to the deployment of Malaise traps in suitable habitats (Takano +et al. +2024). Malaise traps accounted for 32 of the +54 specimens +of + +N. ngoko + +, and five of the +16 specimens +of + +N. smithi + + +sp. nov. + +collected at PNNN. + +Neurellipes ngoko + +was described from Ouesso, +ROC +and is not known from anywhere east of the +Congo +River ( +Libert 2010 +), whilst its allopatric sibling + +N. rufomarginata + +, distributed in north-eastern +DRC +, is separated by some +800 km +(its most westerly record being Kisangani). There is however a short series of specimens (n=11) from Kwokoro, +DRC +( +Fig. 23 +) in the ANHRT collections somewhat intermediate between + +N. ngoko + +and a + +N. rufomarginata + +specimen from Epulu, +DRC +figured on Plate XXIV of +Libert’s (2010) +revision. Although the genitalia and the deeper orange colouration of the wing markings are similar to true + +N. ngoko + +, the wing patterns are consistently more reduced and less well-defined; this population may yet constitute an undescribed taxon but without barcode data, its identity is not dealt with any further herein and merely highlighted as being a group that requires further investigations. The male specimens of + +N. ngoko + +from PNNN also show a high degree of variability with some males ( +Fig. 17 +) displaying phenotypes very similar to + +N. ngoko fontainei +Libert, 2010 + +from Sankuru, +DRC +. Based on the series collected at PNNN, it is possible that + +ssp. +fontainei + +is merely a form of nominotypical + +N. ngoko + +, but since the distribution is disjunct (ca. +800 km +apart), the two taxa are maintained as being separate for the time being until further material becomes available in between these populations. + + + + + +Derivatio nominis +. + +It is with great pleasure that I dedicate this new species to Richard Smith, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, ANHRT, for his outstanding and ongoing contribution to African entomology and biogeography through the institution he founded. + + + + +Distribution. +The new species is known only from PNNN but may be more widely distributed in the Sangha-Congo interfluvial region. + + + + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/59/2E/87/592E8799FFDFFFCDFF4CFB56BA1E51EA.xml b/data/59/2E/87/592E8799FFDFFFCDFF4CFB56BA1E51EA.xml new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..b949315d671 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/59/2E/87/592E8799FFDFFFCDFF4CFB56BA1E51EA.xml @@ -0,0 +1,440 @@ + + + +Descriptions of three new species of Lycaenidae (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) from Parc National de Nouabalé-Ndoki, Republic of Congo with additional notes on little-known species + + + +Author + +Takano, Hitoshi + +text + + +Zootaxa + + +2024 + +2024-08-19 + + +5496 + + +2 + + +214 +230 + + + + +http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5496.2.4 + +journal article +10.11646/zootaxa.5496.2.4 +1175-5326 +13346625 +D690291D-7BD2-43D1-95E8-81B3F82D988A + + + + + + + +Falcuna nouabaleensis + +sp. nov. + + + + + + +( +Figs 4–6, 8 +, +40 +) + + + + + + +Holotype + +♂ +( +ANHRT +): + + + +“ + +REPUBLIC OF CONGO + +372m + +/ +Sangha Prov. +, +Nouabalé-Ndoki +/ +National Park +, +Mbeli +camp/( + +Gilbertiodendron + +forest) / +02°14’23.8”N +, +16°23’52.1”E +/ + +1–10.x.2022 + +General Coll. / Dérozier, V., Fouka, B., / Kirk-Spriggs, A., Takano, H. / +ANHRT +:2022.14 // ANHRTUK / 00260603” + + + + +Paratypes + +( +5♂♂ +3♀♀ +): + + + + +REPUBLIC OF CONGO + +: same data as holotype ( +2♂♂ +1♀ +ANHRT +) + +; + +same data but + +14–20.ii.2023 + +, leg. +N.

Valve oblong, apex recurved towards dorsum, with a small digitate process on the dorsal margin. Aedeagus long, slightly longer than valve, sinuate, tapering gradually from base to apex. +Female. Similar to male but larger, the forewing outer margin is more convex and the creamy-white basal area is much more extensive on both wings. + + + +Diagnosis. +The new species is similar in appearance to + +F. lybia +( +Staudinger, 1892 +) + +( +Figs 1–3 +), a peculiar member of the genus distinguished by a single discoidal spot on the hindwing underside, somewhat reminiscent of the white + +Liptena +Westwood, [1851] + +in the + +L. opaca + +group of +Libert (2021) +. The genitalia are also distinctive, the slender construction of the subuncal lobes being strongly excurved anterio-ventrally and lacking projections from the inner surface ( +Stempffer & Bennett 1963 +). + +Falcuna nouabaleensis + + +sp. nov. + +can most readily be separated from + +F. lybia + +based on the presence of subapical and apical white spots on the forewing and hindwing undersides respectively, the broader hindwing border, and the larger discoidal spot of the hindwing in the latter. The ground plan of the genital capsule is similar but in + +F. lybia + +( +Fig. 7 +), it is generally larger, the subuncal lobes are cranially shorter and more robust, and caudally more excurved, the valve is more elongate, its dorsal margin straighter and the recurved apex broader. Intraspecific barcode PWDs of the new species were 0.0% (n=3) and diverged from a + +F. lybia + +sample on GenBank (MCZ:RE08J104) by 1.6%. This is a greater divergence than that observed between GenBank sequences of + +F. margarita +( +Suffert, 1904 +) + +and + +F. orientalis +( +Bethune-Baker, 1906 +) + +which was 1.1%. + + + + + +Derivatio nominis +. + +The new species is named after its +type +locality, Parc National de Nouabalé-Ndoki in northern +Republic of Congo +. + + + + +Distribution. +The new species is only known from the short series collected at the type locality. Its sister species, + +F. lybia + +was described by +Staudinger (1892) +from a small series of both sexes collected in +Gabon +by Albert Mocquerys (see +Fig. 1 +for +paralectotype +in MfN), and is known from +Cameroon +(a long series in ABRI), as well as from Etoumbi, Kellé and Ketta in +ROC +( + +Bampton +et al +. 1991 + +). These +ROC +records are based on specimens collected by T.H.E. Jackson in the National Museum of +Kenya +but since they have not been examined, it is not known to which species they belong. Despite the close proximity of Ketta to PNNN, it may be possible to speculate that all these specimens belong to + +F. lybia + +; +Lycaenidae +and in particular the +Liptenini +were a speciality of Jackson’s ( +Carcasson & Clench 1969 +) and had the underside lacked the white subapical and apical spots on his specimens, he most likely would have noticed such differences in these distinctive insects.

Head ( +Fig. 9A +). Head and antenna dark brown, maxillary palpus pale yellow. Eye bridge three facets wide. Face with 5–6 setae. Maxillary palpus with three segments, basal segment with two setae, with an indistinct sensory fossa; 2nd segment with six setae; 3rd segment long with five setae ( +Fig. 9D +). Fourth antennal flagellomere +0.11 mm +long, length/width = 1.93, neck much longer +0.05 mm +, body with mostly short setae and with a row of distinctly elongated setae near the neck ( +Fig. 9C +). Thorax. Mostly brown. Posterior pronotum with one seta, and scutellum with two long bristles. Wing ( +Fig. 9A +). Length = +1.68mm +. R +1 +/R = 0.46. c/w = 0.58. Membrane without macrotrichia.

The specimen from Europe belongs to BOLD: ACC1760 with a nearest neighbour distance of 2.09%. The specimen from +China +corresponds with the Korean and Canadian species and is represented by BOLD: ACD6259 with a nearest neighbor distance of 3.38%. These materials are morphologically identical to the European ones (based only on figures observed in the available literature) but resulted genetically different.

The following combination of morphological characters defines this species amongst Atlantic congeners: (1) posterior half of carapace sparsely dentate ( +Fig. 4a +); (2) post-cervical groove with distinct dentate cincture ( +Fig. 4a +); (3) pleura of third to fifth pleonites with medial teeth ( +Fig. 4b +); and (4) third pereiopod propodus lacking rows of long setae on dorsal and ventral margins ( +Fig. 4c +). Morphologically, the species appears to be most similar to the eastern Mediterranean + +O. minoica + +, from which it can be distinguished by a suite of morphological characters, as outlined in +Chevaldonné & Pretus (2021 +: table 2). + + + +FIGURE 4 +. + +Odontozona addaia +Pretus, 1990 + +from Sal, Cabo Verde; female (pocl 3.5 mm, RMNH.CRUS.D.59338); a) carapace, lateral; b) pleon, lateral; c) third pereiopod, mesial; d) same, chela, lateral. + + + +The present +four specimens +from +Cabo Verde +exhibit a small amount of variation in carapacial dentition, as follows: cervical cincture with 5–6 teeth; post-cervical cincture with 8–13 teeth, sometimes medially interrupted; branchiostegal cincture with 5–10 teeth; area between cervical and post-cervical groove with 1–3 teeth, usually in two fields; posterior area with a dispersed field of 1–5 teeth; post-orbital area with 2–3 teeth; hepatic area with 3–4 teeth; and the pterygostomial angle with 1–4 small teeth ventrally, angle with 0–1 teeth + 1–2 teeth placed dorsally to the angle. Other variation observed was in the rostral formula (6/2–3), the number of teeth (7–8) in the serration of the uropodal exopod, and the number of teeth (8–10) on the dorsal transverse cincture on the sixth pleonite. + + +Colour pattern. +The colour pattern of the specimens from +Cabo Verde +, when observed underwater ( +Fig. 5d +), closely match that of the specimens from Marseille ( +Chevaldonné & Pretus, 2021 +: fig. 2), with distinctive red banding of the pleon and orange-tinted pereiopods. The colour after the shrimps’ capture ( +Fig. 5e, f +) is similar, with the colour of the pereiopods being more washed-out. + + + + +Distribution and ecology. +The species was previously known from two locations in the Mediterranean Sea, a near-shore cave at a depth of +5 m +, close to Port Addaia, +Menorca +, +Balearic Islands +, +Spain +( +Pretus 1990 +), and two caves at depths of +15–20 m +in the Calanques near Marseille, +France +( +Chevaldonné & Pretus, 2021 +), about +380 km +from the +type +locality. The present discovery of the species in +Sal +( +Cabo Verde +), +3700 km +(as the crow flies, but not the shrimp swims) from the +type +locality, considerably extends the previously known geographical range of the species into oceanic Atlantic waters. The habitat, in which the present specimens were found, is essentially the same as in the Mediterranean locations, and it is to be expected that over time the species will be recorded in other caves in-between these disjunct locations. + + + + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/A7/39/41/A7394179B521FFD9FF56FA90C46AFB13.xml b/data/A7/39/41/A7394179B521FFD9FF56FA90C46AFB13.xml new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..4dc6f5814ee --- /dev/null +++ b/data/A7/39/41/A7394179B521FFD9FF56FA90C46AFB13.xml @@ -0,0 +1,915 @@ + + + +Revision of the genus Bryodemina Hull (Diptera, Bombyliidae, Lomatiinae) with descriptions of two new Neotropical species + + + +Author + +Lamas, Carlos J.
