Zootecus undetermined

description: ? Zootecus sp.
(Fig. 21)
Locality: Wadi Darbat, Dhofar, Oman.
Stratum typicum: Paludal biomicritic limestones of the Zalumah Formation.
Age: Late Priabonian.
Material: This species is only represented by the single cast, NMBE 5018987.
Measurements: Figured cast specimen: H = 7.29 mm.
Remark: This species has an elongated, turreted cylindrical shell, the cast shows six whorls, at least. The magnified detail shows some faint axial riblets on the upper whorl. The preservation of this species is too poor to justify a description, although this is for sure a new species. At the moment, the shell form and size give rise to the hypothesis that this is probably an ancestral species to the little radiation of the genus Zootecus WESTERLUND, 1887 in the area. The three Modern species are all larger, but at least the upper teleoconch whorls are also striped (Figs. 22–24).
It should be stressed that Zootecus insularis (EHRENBERG, 1831) has a wide distribution ranging from the Cape Verde Islands to Northwest India (Kashmir). Today, it is the most common pulmonate snail species in southern Arabia. The other two species are local endemics, with Z. lucidissimus (PALADILHE, 1873) living in the mountains of southern Yemen and the Dhofar area, Oman, while Z. contiguus (REEVE, 1849) is endemic to Abd al-Kuri, the westernmost island of the Soqotran Archipelago (Neubert 2003; Fig. 24).

Trochozonites arabica

description: Trochozonites arabica sp. nov.
(Fig. 25)
Type specimens: Holotype NMBE 5018988. Type locality: Wadi Darbat, Dhofar, Oman.
Stratum typicum: Paludal biomicritic limestones of the Zalumah Formation.
Age: Late Priabonian.
Material: This species is only represented by the holotype specimen.
Etymology: arabica for its presence on the Arabian Peninsula.
Diagnosis: Broad conical shell with strong opisthocline ribs.
Description: Shell broad conical; protoconch blunt, consisting of ca. 2 whorls without any obvious sculpture; last teleoconch whorl rapidly increasing, with a sharp peripheral keel; whorls only slightly rounded, suture simple and shallow; teleoconch whorls covered by strong opisthocline ribs; lower part of the shell (below the periphery) smooth; aperture depressed oval, peristome (probably) simple, sharp; form of umbilicus not clearly discernible, however, it seems to be quite narrow.
Measurements: Holotype (Fig. 25): H = 5.04 mm; W = 5.27 mm; Wh> 5.
Remarks: The specific opisthocline ribs discriminate this shell from all cerastid shells, which have orthocline ribs. The shell form immediately recalls the shells of the afrotropical helicarionid genus Trochozonites PFEFFER, 1883. To facilitate comparison, the figure of Trochozonites plumaticostata PILSBRY, 1919 from the Congo Basin is here provided (Fig. 26). In his diagnosis of the species, Pilsbry (1919: 251) explicitly describes the "oblique, rather widely spaced, retractive, undulating riblets", which is close to what can be seen in T. arabica sp. nov. Nonetheless, the affiliation to such a badly understood genus remains with some doubts, because important character sets like the protoconch sculpture and microrelief are not preserved.

Oxyethira undetermined

description: Oxyethira sp.
Diagnoses of larvae of most species of Oxyethira have not been published.
Material studied. ALGERIA, Blida, Hammam Melouane, Badour Wadi (S8) (36°28’43”N, 3°04’07”E), 410 m a.s.l.: 22.iv.2011, 1 larva; 22.iii.2013, 1 larva (CSK04).
Comment. The genus is currently represented in Algeria by two species: Oxyethira unidentata McLachlan 1884 and Oxyethira falcata Morton 1893. The specimens were collected in a single moderately flowing site (S8) (Fig. 2). The species of the larvae cannot be identified; therefore, rearing or molecular sequencing should be performed to identify the species.

description: Family HYDROPSYCHIDAE Curtis 1835
Hydropsychidae appears to be a relatively well-diversified group in Algeria. Genera and species occupy a wide range of habitats from brooks to large rivers (Illies 1953). Three genera of this family are present in El Harrach Wadi: Cheumatopsyche Wallengren 1891, Diplectrona Westwood 1839, and Hydropsyche F.J. Pictet 1834.

Material studied. ALGERIA, Blida, Hammam Melouane, Badour Wadi (S8) (36°28’43”N, 3°04’07”E), 410 m a.s.l.: 22.ii.2013, 3 larvae (CSK09). Maktaa Lazreg, El Aach Wadi (S4) (36°28’17”N, 3°00’30”E), 200 m a.s.l.: 07.vi.2013, 2 larvae (CSK10).
Comment. Thirteen Diplectrona species occur in the European part of the West Palearctic Region but none of these are known in the Maghreb (Morse 2021, personal communication). We collected larvae of this genus in only two moderately flowing sites (Fig. 2) between 200 and 410 m a.s.l. We need adults to identify the Algerian species.

Hydropsyche ouederoum Botosaneanu 1975 was synonymized with this species by Dakki (1978), but the synonymy was questioned by Botosaneanu (1999). Although Arab (2004), Bemmousset et al. (2021), and Sekhi et al. (2016) reported this species from Algeria, no taxonomical study was done. More study is needed to resolve this synonymy question. The larva of this species has been described and diagnosed by Bemmoussat et al. (2021) and Dakki & Tachet (1987).

Hydropsyche incognita

description: Hydropsyche incognita Pitsch 1993a
Hydropsyche incognita was first described from Germany (Pitsch 1993a). It is a known species with a large distribution in many European countries (Serafin & Cios 2005) but a new species for Algeria and for the Maghreb. It was recorded at two sites of the El Harrach Wadi. The larva of this species has been described and diagnosed by Fischer & Neu (2002), Múrria et al. (2010), Neu & Tobias (2004), Statzner & Mondy (2009), Vieira-Lanero (2000), Waringer & Graf (2011), and Zamora et al. (2017).
Characteristic features of the larva of H. incognita are dark brown body color, a straight anterior edge of the frontoclypeal apotome, and a light oral spot and a clear dark Y-shaped patch in the central area of the frontcypeus. Hydropsyche incognita also has a submentum with its lateral lobes elongate and its anterior margin with a small protuberance. Posteroprosternites are darkly pigmented. Abdominal segment VII has gills.
Although it is likely our larvae belong to H. incognita, we would like to see the identification confirmed by catching adults as well.

description: The rapid evolution of the space sector, marked by the constant emergence of new businesses, models, and technologies, creates a complex landscape for education and training. EU-TaSK serves as a knowledge taxonomy to navigate the diverse space education sector. Focused on upstream, midstream, downstream, and supporting areas, EU-TaSK provides a unified vocabulary and structure for collecting, analysing, and sharing space education information. EU-TaSK is built on the knowledge domains and knowledge areas identified in the analysis of 140 space-related degrees across Europe, and aligned with SpaceCRAFT, EO Taxonomy, Copernicus, and PwC space value chain. EU-TaSK is alsomapped to ESCO, and we identify that space systems engineering, and other space-related engineering knowledge areas are currently missing from ESCO.

REMARK
The Fort Ternan collection includes two or three taxa that can be assigned to Paradoxurinae. Exactly how the material is to be assigned between these putative taxa is a complicated issue. There is great morphological variability despite the small sample, and most specimens are isolated teeth. Comparisons with other taxa are also difficult, because these are either separated by a large temporal gap, or by considerable geographic distance, or both. Hence, some of the identifications below may be subject to revision in the future, as more material of small middle Miocene carnivorans becomes available.

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — KNM-FT 3373, right m1.
DESCRIPTION
KNM-FT 3373 (Fig. 4 J-L)
This m1 is smaller than the m1s of the preceding taxa. It has paraconid, protoconid, and metaconid that are subequal in height, with the paraconid being the largest in occlusal view and protoconid and metaconid nearly equal to each other. The three trigonid cusps are located close together and there is no central valley, only narrow notches between the cusps. The talonid is initially broad but tapers distally obliquely, such that the buccal side is straight and longer than the lingual side, resulting in the hypoconid being located somewhat distal to the entoconid. These two cusps are nearly equal in height, but the hypoconid is larger. There is no hypoconulid in evidence.
Measurements. Lm1 6.1; Wm1 3.5; Ltm1 3.6.
DISCUSSION
There is little to go on in the taxonomic identification of this tooth. Structurally it differs considerably from the two taxa discussed above. The closest similarity appears to be with Legetetia nandii (cf. Schmidt-Kittler [1987: figs 17d-f, 18eg]). Without suggesting specific phylogenetic affinity, the overall structure of the trigonid, as well as the asymmetric form of the talonid, are reminiscent of Genetta and the tooth is therefore tentatively placed in Viverrinae.

DESCRIPTION
This specimen is of gigantic size (lingual root to apex length c. 171 mm). It is nearly complete, except for some loss of enamel of the crown. The buccal margin is strongly curved, whereas the lingual margin is nearly straight.
DISCUSSION
The size of this specimen excludes identification to all but the very largest hyaenodonts, such as the hyainailourines Hyainailouros or Megistotherium.

description: Tragidion auripenne Casey
(Figs 2 A–B, 7F)
Tragidion auripenne Casey, 1893: 586; Casey, 1912: 322; Casey, 1924: 264; Linsley, 1962:115; Hovore and Giesbert, 1976:352. Type locality: southwestern Utah, USA.
Material examined: six specimens, including one lectotype and two paralectotypes at USNM
Diagnosis. This species is most similar to T. densiventre Casey, with the five costae on each elytron and antennae annulated with orange. However, it can be differentiated from T. densiventre by the shape of the elytra, which is more parallel-sided; the narrower dark basal band of the elytra; less impressed elytral costae which do not curve inward toward the suture; the black integument of the head, legs and ventral surface, and the bright orange elytra. In T. densiventre males, the form of the elytra tapers toward the apex; the basal dark band of the elytra is broad; the costae are deeply impressed and curve inward toward the suture; the color of the elytra is more of an infuscated orange; the head, legs and ventral surface are red-brown.
The new lectotype designation herein for T. auripenne is to assign a single specimen of this species as the sole name-bearing taxon to stabilize future nomenclature. There are three specimens labeled as T. auripenne LeConte in the USNM, none of which are designated as a type. Therefore, a representative was selected, and a label stating “ LECTOTYPE Tragidion auripenne Casey Ian Swift, 2008 ” was affixed to that specimen.
Typical T. auripenne is apparently quite rare. Material matching the type consists only of six specimens. Most of these are from the Four Corners region of the southwestern USA.
Distribution (Fig. 7 F). This species occurs throughout the Four Corners region of the southwestern USA on the Colorado Plateau in southern Utah and Colorado, northern Arizona and northwestern New Mexico. Based on specimen data, it occurs in various xeric habitats.
Ecology. Little is known of the ecology of this species. Most specimens have been taken on Fall-flowering asteraceous shrubs.

(Figs. 2 C–D, 6B)
Tragidion bicolor Bates, 1885:324. Type locality: Guanajuato, Mexico.
Tragidion cyanovestis Chemsak and Linsley, 1979:268. Type locality: Zamorano, Honduras. New synonymy.
Material examined: 23 specimens, including the type of T. cyanovestis at CASC, and the type of T. bicolor at BMNH.
Diagnosis. The male of this species resembles T. coquus. Both species have lightly-impressed elytral costae, almost even with the elytral surface, long, thin, entirely black antennae, and a narrow body form. T. bicolor can be separated from T. coquus by bright metallic blue reflections of the pubescence on the ventral surface in both sexes; the narrower metafemora; the densely pubescent metatibiae with bright metallic blue reflections; the more finely, densely punctate head and antennal scape; and the form of the elytra, which narrows to about % the apex, and becomes somewhat explanate at the apical ½. The female of this species is similar to the female of T. dichromaticum. For a discussion of the differences between the sexes, see the account of T. dichromaticum.
The type of T. bicolor matches very closely with that of T. cyanovestis. Chemsak and Linsley (1979) provided no diagnosis or other means of separating T. cyanovestis from other species of Tragidion, most notably T. bicolor. Chemsak examined and photographed the type of T. bicolor at the BMNH only after his description of T. cyanovestis and later acknowledged the synonymy (J. Chemsak, pers. comm.).
Distribution (Fig. 6 B). Southern Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras.
Ecology. The larval host, adult habits, and full geographical distribution of this species are unknown. Most specimens have been collected advantageously on vegetation.

Tragidion carinatum Thomson, 1860:204; Bates, 1885:324. Type locality: Mexico.
Material examined: a 35 mm color slide of the type from the MNHN, in addition to the two specimens listed below.
Diagnosis. This species was described from a single female specimen from Mexico. The male is undescribed, which confounds proper identification of this species. For a discussion of the relationships between this species and T. deceptum, see the diagnosis section of T. deceptum species account.
Discussion. Two specimens, one from “ 6 mi S of Zapotitlan, Puebla, Mexico, 5500’, X-6-1975 (J. Powell, J.A. Chemsak, colls.)” (EMEC) and another simply labeled as “Mex” with no collector or date (EMEC), represent either a potentially undescribed species, or possibly the male of T. carinatum. Neither of these species were collected in association with a female of T. carinatum, and we feel it is ill-advised to describe these specimens in the absence of more data. Given this taxonomic uncertainty, a brief characterization of this population from southern Mexico is presented here in anticipation of more material being collected from this region in the future.
Description. Similar in overall appearance to T. deceptum, but differing in the following aspects: ventral surface and head densely clothed in long, black pubescence, with bright metallic blue reflections; only antennomeres 4–6 annulated in orange, the remaining antennomeres (3 and 7–11) entirely black, pubescence of antennae with bright metallic blue reflections; large overall size (28–31 mm); deeply impressed elytral costae, which terminate at the apex or nearly so; black basal elytral marking with long, black, erect hairs with bright metallic blue reflections; metatarsi sinuate in lateral view, densely clothed in erect pubescence with bright metallic blue reflections, becoming more dense apically; strongly produced bilobed prosternal process, with each lobe broadly rounded and projecting sublaterally.
Diagnosis. The male of Tragidion deceptum differs from the specimens described above in the following manner: ventral surface and head moderately clothed in short black pubescence without metallic reflections; antennomeres 3–11 entirely annulated in orange; elytral costae moderately impressed, terminating % to apex; black basal elytral marking lacking long erect hairs with metallic blue reflections; metatarsi straight, not sinuate in lateral view, moderately clothed in short, black, erect pubescence without metallic reflections; prosternal process not produced, not bilobed, at most, weakly emarginate.
Distribution (Fig. 6 C). Mexico.
Ecology. The ecology of this species is entirely unknown.

(Figs 3 D–E, 7E)
Tragidion densiventre Casey, 1912:322 Tragidion auripenne: Linsley, 1962:115
Material examined: 57 specimens, including the type at USNM.
Diagnosis. Linsley (1962) considered this species to be conspecific with T. auripenne. However, males of these two species are morphologically distinct. The integument of the head, legs, and scape of T. densiventre is red-brown, the elytra are tawny-tan in color with very deeply impressed elytral costae that curve slightly inward toward the suture, the basal black band of the elytra is broad and exceeds the scutellum by 2 × its length, the antennal tubercles are large and pronounced, and it is larger in size. Females of T. densivente are similar to females of T. auripenne. Tragidion densiventr e females can be distinguished by costae that curve inward toward the suture, and elytra that are red-orange (contrasted to yellow-orange in T. auripenne).
Distribution (Fig. 7 E). The southern portions of the states of Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas, USA, and in northern Sonora and Chihuahua Mexico.
Ecology. This species is predominantly found in xeric lowland desert habitats. Adults have been reared from Prosopis glandulosa and Acacia greggii. Adults aggregate on sap of Baccharis sarothroides, as well as on the flowers of the larval host plants. The biology of the larvae is unknown. Cope (1984) reported on the larval hosts of T. auripenne, however, this material now likely represents T. densiventre.
