description: 16. P. ornatus (Perris, 1857)
Figs 69–72.
MATERIAL. Kyrgyzstan, Western Tien Shan Mts., Torkent Village on the northern shore of the Toktogul Reservoir, the bank of the Torkent River, 41.841° N, 73.161° E, 11.VII.2023, signals of two males recorded at 25 °C.
SIGNALS. The male calling signal is a phrase lasting for 17–20 s and consisting of two parts (Figs 69–70). The first part has a duration of about 7 s. It consists of several syllables, each beginning with a sequence of low-amplitude pulses partially merged with each other and following with a period of 8–9 ms, and ending with one or two high-amplitude pulses (Fig. 71, the first half of the oscillogram). The second part of a phrase is a sequence of high-amplitude syllables, following with a period of about 0.7 s at the beginning and up to 1.5 s at the end of the sequence (Figs 71–72). At the beginning of the sequence between the main syllables there are sometimes additional short syllables or separate pulses. The pulse repetition period in main syllables averages 45–80 ms.
REMARKS. In contrast to some other leafhopper genera, signals of two studied species of Phlepsius Fieber, 1866 are completely dissimilar in the temporal pattern.

Subjects: Biodiversity
Taxonomy

description: 1. Batriscenellus admonitor species group
Diagnosis. Abdominal tergite V with long setae dense at posteromedian margin, completely covering basomedian excavation of tergite VI, lacking lateral setiferous patches; with tuft of specialized setae at posteromedian margin of tergite VI (Kurbatov, 1990: 73–74, fig. 2-a).
Remarks. Males of this group are similar to those of the B. fragilis group by sharing a median excavation of tergite VI which is covered by the apicomedian fringe of setae of tergite V. They can be easily separated by the lack of a pair of lateral setiferous patches on tergite V in the B. admonitor group, which are present on members of the B. fragilis group. Adults of the B. admonitor group may be readily separated from those of other groups by the distinctive setae at posteromedian margin of tergite VI.
This group includes only B. admonitor Kurbatov, which is endemic to the Russian Far East (Kurbatov, 1990: 73; Löbl & Besuchet, 2002: 276.).

description: 2. Batriscenellus auritus species group
Diagnosis. This group is basically defined by the males having an excavation on abdominal tergite IV, like most species of Batrisiella.
Remarks. Adults of this group are distinctive by the excavation on male tergite IV.
The group includes three species previously placed in Batrisiella and two new species. Btriscenellus auritus is scattered from North Korea southward down to East China; B. satoi and B. subalpicolus are alpine species that are restricted in Southwest China; the two new species described below are known only from East China.

Description. Male. Reddish brown (Fig. 4), length 1.81–1.93. Head wider than long, HL 0.42–0.43, HW 0.43– 0.44, coarsely punctate, median carina distinct, eyes with about 30 facets; antennae long (Fig. 9). Pronotum about as long as wide, PL 0.43–0.44, PW 0.45–0.46, disc with rough punctations. Elytra wider than long, EL 0.61–0.63, EW 0.73–0.74. Abdomen wider than long, AL 0.41–0.43, AW 0.62–0.63; tergite IV (Figs. 14–15) larger than V– VII combined, excavation located near base, lateral setiferous patches large, partially covering margins lateral to the excavation, width between discal carinae 0.26; tergite V with big median excavation. Length of aedeagus (Figs. 17, 23) 0.30.
Female. Similar to male in size, length 1.92–1.99, HL 0.43–0.44, HW 0.43–0.44, PL 0.44–0.45, PW 0.44–0.46, EL 0.56–0.57, EW 0.71–0.72, AL 0.49–0.53, AW 0.66–0.67. Eyes with about 22 facets. Abdominal tergites simple. Width of female genitalia (Fig. 29) 0.28.
Remarks. This species is most closely allied to B. chinensis and shares with it a number of characters (see remarks under B. chinensis). The parallel sides of the excavation on tergite IV, the lack of small patches mesal to the sides of that excavation, the much wider median impression of tergite V and the forms of the male and female genitalia readily separate this species from B. chinensis.
Distribution. East China (Zhejiang)
Etymology. The species is named after its beautiful appearance.

Female. Similar to male in size, length 1.88–1.98, HL 0.40–0.41, HW 0.41–0.45, PL 0.44–0.47, PW 0.43–0.45, EL 0.53–0.57, EW 0.71–0.72, AL 0.51–0.53, AW 0.68–0.70. Eyes with about 15 facets. Metafemora not thickened, lacking sensory setae. Abdominal tergites simple. Width of female genitalia (Fig. 31) 0.26.
Remarks. This species is most closely allied to B. uenoi from Japan by sharing the modified metafemora and simple abdominal tergites of the male. They may be easily separated by the much shorter antennae, the much more thickened male metafemora, and the forms of the male and female genitalia of the new species.
Distribution. East China (Zhejiang).
Etymology. The species is named after the strongly thickened male femora.

Distribution. China (Beijing, Gansu, Hebei, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Jilin, Liaoning, Qinghai, Shaanxi, Shandong, Shanghai, Shanxi, Yunnan), North Korea, Russian (Far East), South Korea,
Remarks. Originally described as C. atraphaxidis var. asiatica, it was later elevated by Gressitt & Kimoto (1961) to a valid species, C. asiatica. Recently some authors have treated it as one of the four valid subspecies of C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis (Medvedev, 1961; Regalin & Medvedev, 2010).
According to Medvedev (1961), C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis varies greatly in the pronotal color pattern: the number of the spots usually one to seven, isolated completely or connected somehow, occasionally totally diappearing. The subspecies of this species are distinguished mainly by the pronotal color patterns.
C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis asiatica differs from other subspecies by the following character states: body much narrower; pronotum with a single big, black marking, and punctured on each basal side; each elytron with a basal oblique band and a transverse band at apical one-third.
This subspecies occurs in the north of China and occasionally in the south of China.

Distribution. China (Xinjiang), Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Russia (West Siberia).
Remarks. As already noted, the subspecies of C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis are distinguished mainly by the pronotal color patterns. C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis atraphaxidis is diagnosed by the following character states: body usually narrowed anteriorly and posteriorly, length 6.7– 11 mm; pronotal spots usually isolated with each other.
C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis punctata is similar to the nominal subspecies in the elytral color pattern. But the body is almost cylindrical and smaller (length 5.3–9.7 mm), the pronotal spots is usually connected with each other.
C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis punctata differs from C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis asiatica by the following character states: pronotal marking smaller; humeral spot isolated with the spot at basal one-third of each elytron. In China, C. (Clytraria) atraphaxidis punctata is less widespread, occurring only in Xinjiang.

Distribution. Afghanistan, China (Xinjiang), Europe, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia (West Siberia), Tajikistan, Turkey.
Remarks. This species can be identified by having a black pronotum with broader margins, sparsely punctured elytra, and apical-broadened median lobe.
After identified a large series of specimens collected from China, we found that some earlier records were misidentifications and are now found to be C. (s. str.) arida. C. (s. str.) laeviuscula (Fig. 12 F) shares a similar color pattern with one form of C. (s. str.) arida (Fig.13 B): each elytron with a large humeral spot and a transverse band at apical two-fifths, but they can be distinguished from one another by different forms of the median lobe and the broader lateral margins of the pronotum.

Remarks. C. (s. str.) rubrimaculata is close to C. (s. str.) tsinensis, based on the general body form and color patterns, as well as the similar form of two ventral depressions on the apex of the median lobe, but the former species has setose inner and intero-lateral margins along the depressions (Fig. 10 F), while the latter has setae only along the outer margins of the depressions (Fig. 11 F). Also, C. tsinensis has a red spot on the frons, which differs from other species.

Aspidostemon

description: Aspidostemon Rohwer & H.G. Richt.
Typus: Aspidostemon perrieri (Danguy) Rohwer
Diagnostic characters. – Opposite leaves, trimerous flowers with 3 or 6 two-locular stamens, staminodia of whorl III enlarged and conspicuous. Fruits enclosed in receptacle with scars of fallen tepals on top.
Distribution. – Endemic to Madagascar.
Number of species. – 28.
Recent literature. – ROHWER & RICHTER (1987), VAN DER WERFF (2006).
Notes. – Aspidostemon can be recognized in the field by its opposite leaves frequently with acuminate tips and inconspicuous, immersed or slightly raised venation. The bark of Aspidostemon is distinctive and has been referred to as platanoid (VAN DER WERFF, 2006), it was described by René Capuron on the labels of several of his collections “rhytidome caduc par plaques [exfoliating in large plates]”. Opposite leaves occur also in a few species of Beilschmiedia and Ocotea; see the discussion under those genera. Sterile specimens cannot be identified with confidence except for one or two vegetatively distinct species.

Beilschmiedia

description: Beilschmiedia Nees
Typus: Beilschmiedia roxburghiana Nees
Diagnostic characters. – Flowers trimerous with nine bilocular stamens (rarely with dimerous flowers; see notes) and fruits seated on the pedicel, the tepals deciduous or persisting as small bracts at the base of the fruits.
Distribution. – Pantropical.
Number of species in Madagascar. – 9 (all endemic).
Recent literature. – VAN DER WERFF (2003).
Notes. – The Beilschmiedia species in Madagascar can be divided in three groups on vegetative and floral characters. The first group has alternate leaves and small flowers with erect tepals; the second one has alternate leaves and larger flowers with spreading tepals and the third group has opposite leaves and flowers with erect tepals. Some specimens have the vegetative characters of the third group but dimerous flowers (with 4 tepals and 6 stamens instead of 6 tepals and 9 stamens) characteristic of Potameia and thus combine characters of Beilschmiedia and Potameia. An analysis of cuticular features (NISHIDA & VAN DER WERFF, 2007) has shown that these specimens all have cuticles characteristic of the third group of Beilschmiedia and therefore they are placed in Beilschmiedia.

description: Cassytha Osbeck
Typus: Cassytha filiformis L.
Diagnostic characters. – Herbaceous, parasitic vine without leaves.
Distribution. – Pantropical.
Number of species in Madagascar. – 1 (native, non-endemic).
Recent literature. – WEBER (1981).
Notes. – All species of Cassytha are leafless, herbaceous and parasitic vines. Largely because of their habit they have been placed in a separate family, Cassythaceae but phylogenetic studies (ROHWER, 2000; CHANDERBALI et al. 2001) have shown that Cassytha is nested within Lauraceae.
