Polystichum pseudodeltodon

description: Polystichum pseudodeltodon Tagawa (1937: 159). Figure 3.
Type:— Taiwan Island: Taito (Taitung), inter Kiriyama et Tippon-zan, 4 Oct. 1934, M. Tagawa 1069 (KYO).
Polystichum pseudodeltodon has long been identified as P. deltodon (Baker 1880: 494) Diels (1899: 191) even in the recent works (e.g., Knapp 2011, Hsu et al. 2019). However, P. deltodon does not occur in Taiwan but only in Central and southern China (Zhang & Barrington 2013) and Japan (Ebihara 2016). Polystichum pseudodeltodon has pinnae with rounded auricles and hardly toothed pinna margins, whereas P. deltodon has pinnae with acute auricles and toothed pinna margins (Tagawa 1937, Zhang & Barrington 2013).
Polystichum pseudodeltodon is endemic to Taiwan (Zhang & Barrington 2013). Morphologically it is quite variable (Knapp 2011) and more studies are needed.

description: Sarcopromusca Townsend, 1927
Sarcopromusca Townsend, 1927: 209. Type species: Sarcopromusca arcuata Townsend, 1927 [= Orthellia pruna Shannon & Del Ponte, 1926].
Diagnosis. Colouration metallic black with dense silver pruinosity, except for the fifth abdominal tergite which is strikingly golden; wing without maculae, at most the membrane tinged with brown. Female with proclinate fronto-orbital seta; parafrons setulose on upper half; interfrontal seta absent. Acrostichals 0+1. Postsutural dorsocentrals 3. Posthumeral present, postsutural intra-alars 1; intrapostalar present. Prosternum setulose. Katepisternals 1+3. Meron setulose. Posterior suprasquamal ridge setulose. Wing with the apical portion of stem-vein setulose dorsally and ventrally; R1 bare; Rs node and R4+5 setulose dorsally and ventrally; M bent forward towards R4+5. Lower calypter enlarged posteriorly, extending under base of scutellum. Subcostal sclerite bare. Mid tibia with a strong submedian seta on ventral to posteroventral surface. Calcar strong.
Comments. Nihei (2005) gave a key to distinguish the two species – S. sarcophagina (Wulp) and S. pruna (Shannon & Del Ponte), and drew attention to doubts about their distribution because of past misidentifications.
Distribution (2 species). Neotropical.

Polystichum pseudostenophyllum

description: Polystichum pseudostenophyllum Tagawa (1934: 92). Figure 4.
Type:— Taiwan Island: Taityu: in monte Noko-goe, 1933, J. Ohwi 3228 (KYO).
Polystichum pseudostenophyllum is often treated as a synonym of P. stenophyllum (Franchet 1887: 117) Christ (1905: 27) (e.g., Kung et al. 2001, Zhang & Barrington 2013) and rarely recognized (Knapp 2011, Hsu et al. 2019). The two species are morphologically distinguishable with P. pseudostenophyllum having firm coriaceous laminae 7–10 times longer than wide, pinna margins with obvious and spreading teeth, sori mostly on one side of the midrib, and indusia ca. 1 mm in diam.; and P. stenophyllum having coriaceous laminae 12–15 times longer than wide, pinna margins indistinctly serrate, sori on both sides of the midrib, and indusia <0.5 mm in diam. (Knapp 2011). In addition, P. pseudostenophyllum can have lobed pinnae and the pinnae are long aristate and with rounded auricles, while P. stenophyllum never has lobed pinnae and the pinnae are short aristate and with acute auricles.
Polystichum pseudostenophyllum is currently known to be endemic to Taiwan, but it might as well occur in Mainland China. Polystichum stenophyllum occurs in both Mainland China and Taiwan (Knapp 2011, Hsu et al. 2019), the Himalaya (Bhutan, India, N Myanmar, and Nepal), and Japan (Zhang & Barrington 2013, Ebihara 2016).

urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 714C3E34-8FCB-451E-8A19-10F61A1DF016
Figs 1, 9, 18
Diagnosis
Chimarra jejyorum sp. nov. is closely related to C. gattolliati sp. nov. The two species can be distinguished by the shape of the inferior appendages, as discussed in the diagnosis of C. gattolliati sp. nov. or, due to the size of the phallic apparatus, by the phallotheca, split shortly after the base in C. jejyorum sp. nov. (Fig. 9D), after mid-length in C. gattolliati sp. nov. (Fig. 7D).
Etymology
From the Malagasy ‘jejy’ (a traditional musical instrument). It is a reference to the name of the Mountain Marojejy, in translation: where there are many guitars.

Type:— Taiwan Island: Arishan, Hasegawa-kei, April 1914, T. Ito & B. Hayata s.n. (TAIF-1998!, TI).
Polystichum subapiciflorum is often treated as a synonym of P. biaristatum (Blume 1828: 164) T. Moore (1858: 86) (e. g., Knapp 2011, Zhang & Barrington 2013, Hsu et al. 2019). However, P. subapiciflorum (Knapp 4182, P!) has rounded pinnule apex and medial sori, whereas P. biaristatum has acute pinnule apex and sori slightly closer to the midrib. Polystichum biaristatum occurs in SE and S Asia but neither in Taiwan nor Mainland China.

Figs 10, 17
Diagnosis
The closest species to C. hamatra sp. nov. is C. makiorum sp. nov. The tergum X of these two species are relatively small (as in C. jejyorum sp. nov. and in C. gattolliati sp. nov.) but, their inferior appendages are roughly rectangular and not triangular or L-shaped as in all the other species of the group. Moreover, these appendages have a distinct and heavily sclerotized supplementary branch on the distal edge. This branch is inserted at mid-height in C. hamatra sp. nov. (Fig. 10A), whereas almost apically in C. makiorum sp. nov. (Fig. 11A).
Etymology
The name is a Malagasy adjective that means ‘uncommon’.
Type material
Holotype
MADAGASCAR: ♂, mounted on three slides, tributary of the Sahatandra River, near Moramanga, 18°56′27″ S, 48°29′12″ E, 800 m, 28 Apr. 1998, leg. J.-M. Elouard.
Description
SIZE. Forewing 7.1 mm, hind wing 5.6 mm.
TERGUM X. Lateral lobe reduced; dorsal branch straight (lateral view), relatively short with, at midlength, a small lateral bump bearing two sensillae; ventral branch short and thin.

description: Polystichum subobliquum Tagawa (1935: 138). Figure 6.
Type:— Taiwan Island: Taito (Taitung): between Kiriyama et Tippon-zan, about 2000 m, 4 Oct. 1934, M. Tagawa 1092 (KYO).
Polystichum subobliquum is often treated as a synonym of P. obliquum (D. Don 1825: 3) T. Moore (1858: 87) (e.g., Knapp 2011, Zhang & Barrington 2013, Hsu et al. 2019). However, P. subobliquum (Knapp 3625, 4178, P!) has lower pinnae that are not reflexed and sori close to pinna margins, but P. obliquum has lower pinnae often reflexed and sori closer to the midrib. Therefore, here we reinstate this species. It is endemic to Taiwan. Our unpublished molecular data supports the separation of the two species.

Diagnosis. This species can be recognized by the following characteristics: frontal vitta reddish yellow, face and parafacial black to pale yellow; gena and postgena pale yellow; palpi spatulate and white; postpedicel rounded apically, about 2 times as long as wide; thorax black with grey dusting; legs yellow, only mid and hind coxae black; fore femur with a row of posterodorsal setae, with numerous hairs anteriorly and ventrally; abdominal tergites black and greyish dusted; posterior lobes on male sternite V basally wide, with one row of spinules on inside margin (Fig. 49); male surstyli simple and slender (Figs 50, 51).
Body length (♂ ♀). 6.0–6.2 mm.
Distribution. Europe, Russia (European territory, West and East Siberia, Far East) (Ozerov, 2017) and Japan (Honshu).
Remarks. This species is easily distinguished from M. haemorrhoidalis Meigen by having posterior lobes on sternite V which are basally stout, and by the shape of surstyli.

Remarks. This attenuated species does not belong to Pseudopallene on account of its general habitus, the absence of palp buds and lanceolate oviger spines. The combination of widely spaced lateral processes and body spination also distinguish this species from Cordylochele and Meridionale. The species is further distinguished from Meridionale by the shape of the oviger claw and from Cordychele by the non-globose chelae palms.

Pseudopallene glutus Pushkin, 1975: 1402 –1404
Remarks. In combination with its overall habitus and the absence of palp buds this specimen is incompatible with Pseudopallene and it does not share the distinctive oviger claw or chela shape with Meridionale. It is closest to Cordylochele but differs in the longer and more widely-spaced lateral processes, in the shape of the oviger claw and in the shape of the chelae. The Sub-Antarctic collection site, the shape of the proboscis and the longer tarsus distinguish this species from all of the above genera.
In some respects P. glutus bridges Cordylochele and Austropallene Hodgson, 1915 s.str. The proboscis is very much Austropallene -like and the collection locality is more in keeping with the geographic range of that genus. However the possession of a terminal oviger claw and probably the absence of cephalic horns immediately separate this species from Austropallene.
Distribution Only known from the Sub-Antarctic (45° 47' S, 49° 44' W).

Material examined: 12 specimens (CNAP–ICML PO-37-103): 1 specimen, Caleta E1B2, 16°49.797’N, 99°54.062’W, May 25 2006, 12 m, coarse sand. 2 specimens, Palmitas E2B1, 16°42.420’N, 99°54.733’W, May 25 2006, 10.5 m, coarse sand. 3 specimens, Palmitas E2B2, 16°42.420’N, 99°54.733’W, May 25 2006, 10.5 m, coarse sand. 4 specimens, Jardín E3B1, 16°49.436’N, 99°54.981’W, May 26 2006, 12 m, coarse sand. 2 specimens, Jardín E3B2, 16°49.436’N, 99°54.981’W, May 26 2006, 12 m, coarse sand.
Comparative material examined. Erinaceusyllis cryptica, 3 specimens (MNCN 16.01 /11457) Spain: Cala Mal Paso Cuevas da Almanzora, Almería, Mediterranean Sea. Sphaerosyllis bilobata, 6 specimens (MNCN 16.01 / 6152) Cuba: Punta del Francés, Isla de Pinos, Canarreos Archipelago, Caribbean Sea, 1 m.
Remarks. Erynaceusyllis bidentata is characterized by having compound bidentate chaetae with long blades, the median antenna inserted in anterior position and bidentate aciculae. Similar compound bidentate chaetae are present in Erinaceusyllis bilobata (Perkins 1981) and in Erinaceusyllis cryptica (Ben-Eliahu 1977); however, these species do not have the subdistal enlargement observed in the chaetae of E. bidentata, and both have acuminate and unidentate aciculae and the median antenna inserted in the posterior part of the prostomium. The specimens herein examined agree well with the original description of E. bidentata. Only a small difference was observed in the simple chaetae since they appear to be bidentate although they were originally described as unidentate. However, since the subdistal tooth is very small and difficult to detect, this character was not considered taxonomically important enough to make a difference for its taxonomic identification.
Habitat. Shallow depth, medium to coarse sand, mixed bottoms (sand, algae, detritus, dead coral).
Distribution. Eastern Africa (Mozambique), Western Australia and Southern Mexican Pacific (Acapulco Bay).

Spaziphora tomkovichi Ozerov, 2011. Type-locality: Chukotka, Anadyr’Distr., Meynipyl’gino, lake-morene [Russia].
Material examined. Hokkaido, 2 ♂, 1 ♀, Kushiro Marsh, Kushiro, 4. viii. 1993, leg. M. Iwasa.
Diagnosis. Spaziphora tomkovichi Ozerov (Fig. 52) can be recognized by the following characteristics: anterior part of frons, face, parafacial, and gena whitish; postpedicel yellowish, with slightly angular upper corner (Fig. 53); palpi spatulate and white (Fig. 54); thorax black with grey dusting; legs yellow; abdomen slender, grey dusted, and subshiny; male sternite V ventrally with two distinct spur-like tubercles (Figs 55, 56); male surstyli stout and apically pointed, closing each other (Fig. 56).
Body length (♂ ♀). 7.3–8.0 mm.
Distribution. Russia (the Far East) (Ozerov & Krivosheina, 2014) and Japan (Hokkaido). New to Japan.
Remarks. Currently, the genus Spaziphora comprises three species in the world (Ozerov, 2011). Spaziphora tomkovichi is easily distinguished from other known congeneric species by having two distinct ventral spure-like tubercles on male sternite V.

Remarks. The specimens herein examined presented some differences with the original description of the species. The trepan has approximately the same number of teeth, but the arrangement is somewhat different since it has 15 teeth both in the dorsal and ventral parts, while in the original description of M. dentalia it is stated that it has 9 to 11 dorsal teeth and between 16 and 19 ventral teeth. In addition, in the specimens from Acapulco Bay, the proventricle is shorter (extending through 8 segments), with a lower number of muscular cell rows (around 26). The remaining characters agree well with the species originally described, so that, considering the difficulties and subjectivity involved in the distinction of the teeth of the trepan, we decided to consider that all the examined specimens belong to M. dentalia.
Habitat. Subtidal, living between hydroids, bryozoans and tunicates in coarse sand.
Distribution. Japan, North Carolina (USA), Gulf of Mexico and Southern Mexican Pacific (Acapulco Bay).

description: Genus Levantiniella Carella et al., 2016
Synonymy: Levantinella Szitenberg et al., 2013
Definition: Tetillidae with small shallow porocalyx-like structures, with spined microxeas, without auxiliary megascleres, and without cortex (Szitenberg et al. 2013).
Diagnosis: Globular sponges attached directly to the substrate, without root spicule tufts. Surface hispid, sometimes entirely covered by sand and debris. Porocalyx-like small, rounded structures, sometimes unconspicuous due to sand coverage; oscules inconspicuous. Skeleton composed of bundles of oxeas, anatriaenes, protriaenes, and sometimes prodiaenes spirally arranged, rising from the central zone outwards and protruding the sponge surface. No cortical specialization visible in cross section. Hispidation caused chiefly by the strong fascicles of large oxeas that protrude the surface. Megascleres are large oxeas, protriaenes, and prodiaenes; microscleres are microxeas and sigmaspires. Species distributed in shallow waters of Southeastern Mediterranean Sea (Vacelet et al. 2007).
Remarks. The only species of this genus was placed in Cinachyrella on the basis of the absence of cortex and presence of porocalices (Vacelet et al. 2007). However, the revision of the paratype MNHN-DJV 97and several other specimens, which served to describe the new species, proved they have not true porocalices (as they have been defined by Boury-Esnault & Rützler 1997), but shallow open cavities. This characteristic, plus the secondary structure of the V4 region of 18S allowed retrieving a monophyletic clade separated from Cinachyrella in the parsimony phylogeny (Carella et al. 2016). Moreover, the molecular phylogeny based on several molecular markers (COI M1-M6, 18S and 28S D3-D5) also recovered a monophyletic group for Cinachyrella levantinensis, clearly separated from Cinachyrella (Szitenberg et al. 2013; Carella et al. 2016). All these morphological and molecular characteristics allowed us to include the species previously considered as C. levantinensis in the new genus Levantiniella.

Diagnosis
By most of its characters, C. saha sp. nov. is closely related to C. moramanga sp. nov. The remarkable structure of the phallic apparatus of this latter prevents any confusion between the two species. Moreover, C. saha sp. nov. is characterized by the laterally deflected dorsal lamina of the phallotheca. This deflection makes the distal part of the apparatus wider than the median part (dorsal view).
Etymology
From the Malagasy ‘saha’ (= valley), referring to the name of the type-river, used as a noun in apposition.
