Gymnetron vulpes

description: Gymnetron vulpes Lucas
Gymnetron vulpes Lucas, 1849: 459; Brisout 1862: 659; Reitter 1908: 17.
This taxon was described from a single specimen collected at Milah (Constantine province, Algeria) and is now housed in the general collection of the MNHN. It corresponds exactly to the original description and illustration and is labelled as follows "756 [handwritten under a blue round label] / Gymnetron vulpes, Lucas [handwritten white rectangular label] / Museum Paris, Algérie, coll. H. Lucas 78-49 [typewritten grey rectangular label] / TYPE [typewritten red rectangular label]". It is a male and here designated as the lectotype of Gymnetron vulpes Lucas, 1849 (des. Caldara). Lucas (1849) referred to the fact that, according to the opinion of Roussel, this species is also common in the environs of Alger, where the larva develops on Celsia cretica L. (syn. of Verbascum creticum (L.) Cav.). Brisout (1862) believed erroneously that this specimen was only a teneral individual of G. p i l o s u m and therefore synonymised these two taxa. In fact, it is a junior synonym of the species called Gymnetron marmota Fairmaire, 1883 by Reitter (1908), presently placed in Mecinus (Caldara 2001). Moreover, the specimens collected on Celsia cretica actually belong to R. tetra (Fabricius, 1792).

Torrenticola baueri Bader & Sepasgozarian, 1987, n. syn.
Material examined. NHMB 120-131, Torrenticola baueri, Elburs, 2280 m, 26.5.75, Ba-J/ 16 12/16 /2.
Remarks. In the original description, Bader & Sepasgozarian (1987) compared T. baueri with T. anomala, a taxonomically distant species, but were not aware of the close similarity of the former to T. barsica. In the type series, the following details and measurements were observed: Male: dorsal shield L/W 553/422; frontal plate L/W128/59, shoulder plate L/W 184/75; ventral shield L/W 706/500; gnathosomal bay L 145, Cx-I L 278, median L 132, Cx-II+III median L 97; genital field L/W 156/131; distance genital field – excretory pore 103, distance genital field – caudal idiosoma margin 173; dL: P-1, 37; P-2, 115; P-3, 66; P-4, 108, P-5, 20; L P-2/P-4 ratio 1.07. Female: dorsal shield L/W 700/544; frontal plate L/W 141/66, shoulder plate L/W 192/81; ventral shield L/W 875/663; Cx-I L 322, Cx-II+III median L 34; genital field L/W 184/ 175, ratio 1.05; distance genital field – excretory pore 175, distance genital field – caudal idiosoma margin 320; gnathosoma L 347; dL: P-1, 39; P-2, 125; P-3, 72; P-4, 117, P-5, 23; L P-2/P-4 ratio1.07. These measurements lie within the variability range of Torrenticola barsica (see Cicolani & Di Sabatino 1990). Therefore, Torrenticola baueri is synonymized here with T. barsica.

Monatractides sepasi Bader, 1988, n. syn.
Material examined. NHMB 209, Torrenticola sepasi, Holotype Ƥ, Iran-Chalus, 27.5.1975 J-Ba 16.
Remarks. In the original description Bader (1988) compared Monatractides sepasi only with M. stadleri (Walter, 1924). The absence of knob-shaped protrusions at the margin of the gnathosomal bay can be recognized in the holotype, clearly separating these two species. The following details and measurements of the re-examined holotype were observed: Female: ventral shield L/W 812/650, Cx-I L 253, median L 119, Cx-II+III median L 40, genital field L/W 166/159; distance genital field – excretory pore 194, distance genital field – caudal idiosoma margin 344. These measurements are in close agreement with those given by Bader in the original description. The length of the median suture Cx-II+III is 40 (Bader mentioned that the median suture Cx/II+III is not measurable, probably because he measured the ‘netto’ distance between the posteriormost unification point of the suture lines Cx-I+II and the anteriormost margin of the sclerification surrounding the genital field).
In view of its small dimensions, a rather short medial suture line of Cx-II+III in the males, a relatively long P-1 (16.0–17.2 % of total length, data taken from the original description), distal margins of P-2 and P-3 without denticles, and absence of an elongated ventral seta on P-4, the specimen shows a general conformity with Monatractides lusitanicus (Lundblad, 1941), a species described from the Iberian peninsula, and later reported from Italy, Balkan, Turkey and Iran (Pešić 2004). The measurements given in the original description lie within the variability range of Monatractides lusitanicus (see Di Sabatino et al. 1992). Thus, M. sepasi should be considered a junior synonym of M. lusitanicus.
It is possible that M. lusitanicus represents a complex of very similar species. Di Sabatino et al. (2003) described Monatractides fridericianus Di Sabatino & Gerecke, 2003 from N Greece might be a product of a local radiation of lusitanicus -like Monatractides. The arising question of genetic isolation and the taxonomic position of Iranian lusitanicus -like Monatractides can be addressed only by the application of molecular methods.

Oltre un nome tanto ingannevole: Capo Verde tra fonti storiche e poesia contemporanea

description: The Portuguese arrival at the Cape Verde archipelago and the subsequent settlement of the islands gave rise to a unique experiment in cultural fusion in the history of maritime exploration. The challenges faced by the initial settlers, both voluntary European colonists and forcibly displaced African slaves, are reflected in the rich cultural expressions of the Cape Verdean people. This article begins its examination by focusing on poetic production, engaging in a dialogue with one of its primary sources of inspiration: the history of the formation and development of the Cape Verdean nation. Through a series of more or less explicit references, it becomes apparent that national poetry often serves as a cathartic attempt to rewrite the country’s history, reappropriating it and ascribing new meaning to a past marked by slavery, famine, and forced migration. The poetry of the 20th century is analyzed in a reflective interplay with historical documents from the 15th and 16th centuries, aiming to elucidate the full philological scope of a specific rewriting process: the redefinition of Cape Verdean identity beyond the confines of the centuries-old colonial narrative.

Material examined. Monatractides persicus, type series (see Pešić & Saboori 2004), the Museum of Natural History of Podgorica (Montenegro).
Remarks. In the original description Pešić & Saboori (2004) mentioned that Monatractides persicus fits well the measurement variability range given for M. stadleri, but differs from the later species in the presence of knob-shaped protrusions at the margin of the gnathosomal bay. The examination of populations of Monatractides stadleri from a wide area shows that more or less pronounced knob-shaped protrusions at the margin of the gnathosomal bay are characteristic for this species. Thus, M. persicus should be considered a junior synonym of M. stadleri.

Gymnetron pilosum Gyllenhal var. brondelii Brisout, 1862: 659;
Gymnetron hispidum Brullé subsp. brondelii Brisout; Mimeur 1949: 112.
Brisout described the variety brondelii from specimens collected in Algeria (without a more precise locality) and thought it to differ from typical G. p i l o s u m only in its smaller size. Although described as an infrasubspecific entity, it was considered as a subspecies of G. h i s p i d u m by Mimeur (1949) and therefore is deemed to carry this rank, according to Art. 45.6.4.1 (ICZN 1999). Unfortunately no syntypes of this taxon were found at the MNHN, including in the Brisout collection, nor in any other museum, and, in order to fix its identity and taxonomic status, it is therefore necessary to designate a neotype for it, in accord with the conditions of Art. 75 of the ICZN (1999). A male with handwritten rectangular labels reading "Philipville, Algérie, ex Bonnaire / pilosum v. Brondeli -H. Bris -/ G. hispidulum [sic] Brullé", placed in the Hoffmann collection (MNHN), is here designated as the neotype of Gymnetron pilosum var. brondelii Brisout, 1862 (des. Caldara). This specimen corresponds to our taxon B as well as to all other similar specimens from North Africa.

Material examined. Holotype: male (idiosoma preserved in Koenike’s medium, palp, I-L and gnathosoma dissected and slide-mounted in Hoyer’s medium), Iran, Kerman Province, Jiroft city area, Gholgholoo spring, June 2009, leg. Asadi.
Diagnosis (female unknown). Dorsal integument lineated; muscle attachments sclerotized, prefr, postfr, postoc and Dgl–3 fused in a large plate (Fig. 2A); all other dorsalia free, not fused to neighbouring platelets; D-4 closely adjacent to each other and slightly fused at the median line. Coxal field (Fig. 2B): with extended borders of secondary sclerotization, posteromedian margin of Cx-I+II irregularly rounded, medial margin of Cx-III + IV rounded. Palp (Figs. 3A–B): ventral margins of P-2/3 straight or weakly concave; P-4 ventral margin 3: 1: 2, with fine denticles near insertions of ventral hairs and strong sword inserting proximally from proximoventral hair; excretory pore sclerotized; Vgl-1 fused to Vgl-2; genital field: with four pairs of Ac, anteriorly rounded, with a secondary sclerite border, posterior margin medially indented. I-L (Fig. 3C–D): I- L-5: S-1 ending in a fine, pointed tip; claw with two clawlets (Fig. 3E).
Description. Male: Idiosoma L/W 622/465; coxal field L 363; Cx-III W 358; Cx-I+II mL 130; lL Cx-I+II 209. Genital field (Fig. 2B): L/W 137/157; L Ac 22-33.

Callianassa (Scallasis) tonkinae Grebenjuk, 1975: 302 –303, fig. 3.

Trypaea tonkinae.— Sakai 2011a: 411.—? Sakai 2011b: 1119.

Not Callianassa tonkinae— Sakai 2002: 503–506, figs 24, 25 = S. andamaniensis (Sakai, 2010).
Type locality. Gulf of Tonkin.
Diagnosis. Pleomere 6 1.3 times as long as wide. Telson 0.7 times as long as wide; greatest width 1.3 times posterior width. Maxilliped 3 ischium-merus 3.2 times as long as wide; merus free distal margin transverse, rounded. Female major cheliped ischium lower margin with 4 small spines; merus lower margin with bifid proximal spine; palm 1.2 times as long as carpus.
Distribution. Known with certainty only from the type locality.
Remarks. Placement of Callianassa (Scallasis) tonkinae in Scallasis relies on Grebenjuk’s (1975) figures of the maxilliped 3, pereopod 3 and telson, and to a lesser extent the major cheliped and uropod. The proximal bifid meral spine on the female major cheliped is similar to that seen in male S. caledonica and S. inermis n. sp. The structure of the eyestalk appears unique in Scallasis in the terminal location of the cornea and the lack of a distomesial projection. No dorsal plate, facial spiniform setae or margin tooth were figured on the uropod – we assume they were overlooked.
Dworschak (2007) suggested that Callianassa tonkinae was a junior synonym of Callianassa amboinae. Sakai (2010) referred the material identified as Callianassa tonkinae from the Andaman Sea by Sakai (2002) to a new taxon Trypaea andamaniensis. Sakai (2011b) identified specimens from the Red Sea, 53 m, and Vietnam, 46 m as “ Trypaea ” tonkinae. The Red Sea is far west of other records of this genus but we were unable to examine this material. Grebenyuk’s types are apparently lost; they were not found in the Zoological Museum of the Moscow State University where Grebenyuk worked (I. Marin, pers. comm. 26 Jan 2020).

Material examined. — HOLOTYPE: male, JAMAICA, 4,000 feet, Hardwar Gap, 6.VII.1966, Howden & Berger col. (CNCI, type nº 7,550).
Comments. — Azevedo (1999c) described the genitalia of this species for the first time and made diagnosis based on the paratype, but there are some differences between this specimen and the the holotype analyzed here. In the holotype, the ventral ramus of aedeagus is horizontal, the dorsal lobe of dorsal body of aedeagus is more angled and the median lobe clypeus is tridentate, whereas in the paratype the ventral ramus of aedeagus is vertical and the median lobe clypeus is subtrapezoidal

See Błażewicz-Paszkowycz (2007).
Remarks
Błażewicz-Paszkowycz (2007) revised the family in a large monograph, which described five new genera and 13 new species, as well as grouped species sharing a set of unique characters in seven ‘morpho-groups’ within Typhlotanais, e.g. ‘ greenwichensis ’ group, ‘mixtus’ group, ‘ spinicauda ’ group, ‘ cornutus ’ group, ‘plicatus’ group, ‘eximius’ group, and ‘ trispinosus ’ group. Characters of each ‘morpho-group’ are mentioned when comparing to new species described herein. It is assumed that the ‘morpho-groups’ may constitute new genera, but this must be further analyzed with a phylogenetic study. However, some typhlotanaids were neither classified under any previously established genera nor included in the morpho-groups created.
According to Błażewicz-Paszkowycz (2007), Typhlotanais sensu stricto comprises only the type species T. aequiremis (Lilljeborg, 1864) and all other species temporarily classified as Typhlotanais sensu lato, showing large variation in characters as the pereonite-1 ratio (length to width), the number of setae on cheliped carpus dorsal margin setation, the form of mandible molar process form, and the shape of pereopods 1–3 basis shape. Typhlotanais is the most speciose genus of the family with 48 described species and a recent unpublished morphological phylogeny encompassing the family Typhlotanaidae suggests it is a polyphyletic group (Segadilha 2019) that badly needs a revision.
