description: MARITIMONAUTINI TRIBE NOV.
(FIGS 1B1, 5A–C, 8B; TABLES 1–3)
Zoobank registration: urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: C6FA3FDB-7C33-4AE0-9AB8-5C4BBDD4C19E.
Diagnosis: S3/4 deep, V-shaped, completely traversing sternum (or deep at margins, faint in the middle); outer margins of S4 raised and thickened; third maxilliped ischium lacking vertical suture (or if present, faint); anterolateral margin of carapace posterior to epibranchial tooth either smooth or granulated, but lacking teeth; G1 TA short (TA length 0.25 × SA length), slim, either not widened in midsection (or dorsal fold slightly higher than ventral fold), tapering evenly to pointed tip (Fig. 5A, B).
Etymology: Maritimonautini is derived from the genus-level name Maritimonautes.
Type genus: Maritimonautes gen. nov., gender masculine.
Genus included: Maritimonautes.
Distribution: Maritimonautes is found mainly in the low-lying eastern coastal region of Africa (an area of about 200–300 km wide inland from the coast as far as the Rift Valley) including Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania (from the east coast of Africa to the north coast of Lake Malawi, including Tanzania plus Zanzibar and Pemba Islands), Mozambique and South Africa (Fig. 8C).
Remarks: The molecular phylogeny presented here (Fig. 1) agrees with the phylogenies of Daniels & Klaus (2018) and Wood et al. (2019), each of which recovered the species assigned here to Mauritonautini as a well-supported clade that forms a distinct lineage (Fig. 1B1) at the base of the large and diverse clade of Potamonautinae (Fig. 1B). Mauritonautini (Fig. 1B1) split from the other lineages (Fig. 1B 2, B3) in this subfamily over 27 Mya during the Oligocene-Miocene.

Diagnosis: Anterolateral margin denticulated between exorbital, epibranchial teeth. Cheliped carpus inner margin with two large subequal pointed teeth; cheliped carpus outer margin with two or three teeth; anterolateral margin of carapace behind epibranchial tooth with several small teeth; carpi, propodi of P2–5 with spines on their margins; margins of meri of P2–5 either smooth or sparsley setose; G1 TA slim tapering, not widened by raised lobes (Fig. 4A–C).
Type species: Erimetopus brazzae A. Milne-Edwards, 1886, by original designation.
Species included: Erimetopus brazzae (A. Milne- Edwards, 1886) and Erimetopus vandenbrandeni (Balss, 1936).
Distribution: Erimetopus brazzae and E.vandenbrandeni are endemic to the Lower and Middle CongoRiverBasinintheRepublicoftheCongoandtheD.R. Congo (Cumberlidge, 1999; Cumberlidge & Reed, 2004; Fig. 9A).
Remarks: Erimetopus is revised and redescribed here. Erimetopus accommodates two species of unusual freshwater crabs from the Lower Congo Basin in Central Africa (Cumberlidge & Reed, 2004). Bott (1955) established Potamonautes (Erimetopus) with Erimetopus spinosus Rathbun, 1894 as the type species for two species, Potamonautes (Erimetopus) brazzae brazzae and Potamonautes (Erimetopus) brazzae frontospinulosa. Cumberlidge & Reed (2004) recognized Erimetopus as a valid genus with two species, E. brazzae and E. vandenbrandeni. The phylogenies of Daniels et al. (2015: fig. 2), Daniels & Klaus (2018: fig 1) and Wood et al. (2019: Fig. 1) all recovered E. brazzae as a welldefined lineage sister to Longipotamonautes ballayi. The lineage represented by Longipotamonautes (Bott, 1955) is sister to the branch for Occidensonautes ecorssei from West Africa (Fig. 1B 2).

Scarabaeus (Scarabaeolus) vansoni Ferreira 1958 new synonym
We have compared photographs of both the type specimens of Scarabaeus (Scarabaeolus) lucidulus (Boheman, 1860), housed in the NHRS (type locality: Lake Ngami, N. Botswana), with the holotype of Scarabaeus (Scarabaeolus) vansoni Ferreira 1958, housed in the TMSA (type locality: Mangetti, Ovamboland, N. Namibia) (Fig. 1), and are of the opinion that they are synonymous. The type of S. (S.) lucidulus is female thus aedeagi could not be compared. However punctation of the prothoracic disc is similar in both type specimens and the interstriae are similarly lacking in punctation.

description: Scarabaeus (Scarabaeolus) flavicornis (Boheman 1860)
The recorded range of this species is from Lamberts Bay [32° 5’S 18°19’E] in the south (South Africa) to Liuwa plains [14°38’S 22°37’E] in the north (Zambia). Interstriae of specimens from the farm Florida [28° 09’ S 21°40’E] in the Northern Cape are strongly shagreened along the edge of the striae, giving them a dull appearance (Fig. 12). In contrast, specimens from the Liuwa Plains are very smooth and relatively shiny (Fig. 12). We believe that this is merely a cline as a specimen seen from Karibib [21°56’S 15°51’E] (Namibia) shows intermediate sculpture (Fig. 12). There is very little difference between aedeagi from Zambian and Northern Cape specimens.

This species is only included in Scarabaeolus on the presence of the second mesotibial spur (Mostert & Holm 1982). Forgie et al (2005) proposed to move it to Scarabaeus (Scarabaeus) as it consistently falls outside their “ Scarabaeolus clades”.

Remarks. Rhamphomyia (H.) flava (R. (H.) flava group) is broadly distributed across a temperate zone of Europe, including the North-Western and Central regions of the European part of Russia. Our data suggest that the eastern border of the distribution of this species is limited by the Urals (Chelyabinskaya Province). Records of this species from the Caucasus (Kustov et al. 2009: 124; Gladun 2012: 111) require confirmation.

Rhamphomyia

description: Rhamphomyia (Holoclera Schiner)
Holoclera Schiner, 1860: 53 (as genus). Type species: Holoclera pulchra Egger, 1860: 346 (by subsequent monotypy of Egger, 1860) [= R. nigripennis (Fabricius)].
Diagnosis. Small to mid-sized, slender species (wing length from 2.5 to 6.5 mm), with body varying from yellow to black. Male eyes holoptic or narrowly dichoptic, female frons relatively narrow; postpedicel at least twice as long as broad, stylus shorter than postpedicel; labrum usually longer than head height. Thorax with bare prosternum; presutural intra-alar seta absent (R. (H.) nigripennis group) or present (R. (H.) flava group), acrostichal setae absent or present. Legs slender, never pennate in female; fore femur with specialised, rather spine-like anterior setae (R. (H.) nigripennis group) or with simple setae (R. (H.) flava group); hind tibia without long seta in posteroapical comb (R. (H.) nigripennis group) or bearing long seta (R. (H.) flava group). Wing with axillary angle slightly acute to slightly obtuse; cell dm small and narrow (R. (H.) nigripennis group) or more truncate (R. (H.) flava group). Male abdominal tergite 8 often slightly modified: either partially fused with sternite 8 or desclerotized medially. Female with thorax brown to black (R. (H.) nigripennis group) or extensively yellow (R. (H.) flava group).
Remarks. There are some species of Empis which resemble very much species of R. (Holoclera). For example, the Empis subgenus Rhadinempis Collin, with only a single known species, Empis bazini Collin, is strikingly similar to species of the R. (H.) nigripennis group (Barták & Kubík 2012). Empis shebalinensis Shamshev described from Altay is very similar to species of the R. (H.) nigripennis group as well (Shamshev 2019).In addition, some Holoclera - like species of Rhamphomyia with unclear systematic position (R. atrata group) are present in the Nearctic Region (Sinclair, pers. comm.) and in the Russian Far East (Shamshev, unpublished data). This may suggest that the current concept of R. (Holoclera) requires a more precise analysis including the mentioned taxa.
Rhamphomyia (Holoclera) is divided into two groups of species: R. flava group and R. nigripennis group (Barták 1982; Barták & Kubík 2012). The biology is poorly known, with adults visiting flowers, and they have never been observed hunting prey (Barták & Kubík 2012). We refer to Chvála & Wagner (1989) for full lists of synonyms.

description: Rhamphomyia (Holoclera) variabilis (Fallén)
Empis variabilis Fallén, 1816: 29. Type locality: “ Scania ” [= Skåne] (Sweden).
Material examined. RUSSIA. Leningradskaya Prov.: Rakovichi, Luga env., 10,22. vii.1897, Pleske (2 ♂); Luga, 23.viii.1953, AAS (1 ♂); Vyborgskiy Distr., Gulf of Finland, Bolshoy Berezovy Is., 5.viii.1981, Kandybina (1 ♂). UKRAINE. Kiev, Puscha, 23.viii.1911, Yu. Wagner (1 ♂).
Distribution. Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia (north-west and centre of European part), Sweden, Ukraine.
Remarks. It seems that R. (H.) variabilis (R. (H.) flava group) is rare in the Eastern Palaearctic because only a few specimens have been taken over the past 120 years from Leningradskaya and Moskovskaya Provinces of Russia and from the environs of Kiev of Ukraine. Barták & Syrovátka (1983) recorded R. (H.) variabilis from Kabardino-Balkaria, but later this species was not found among extensive material collected from the Caucasus. This is the first record of this species from Ukraine.

description: brasiliensis group
Description. Antenna weakly clavate (Fig. 36) (unknown in N. brasiliensis); posterior fork of CuP+1A ending at hindwing margin beyond level of radial sector which originates well distad of cubital fork; wings marked (except N. amazonas); midlegs and hindlegs as long or longer than forelegs, setae opposing pretarsal claws on forelegs not hooked (Fig. 29); midleg not swollen; midleg tarsomeres 1-4 not flattened ventrally; foreleg tarsomeres 2 and 3 (Fig. 28) less than one-half length of distal tarsomere; female gonapophysis without gonapophysis-like process extending from lateral margin of lateral gonapophysis; posterior gonapophysis greatly expanded (Fig. 55).
Discussion. The three species comprising this group have the foreleg no longer than the hindleg and the ventral setae on the distal tarsomere are not hooked apically. Also, two species have dark spots on the forewing. The female posterior gonapophysis are greatly expanded. The highly modified male genitalia of N. amazonas are unique in the genus. The discovery of larvae and genome analysis of the species may remove this group from Navasoleon.

description: tarsalis group
Description. Foreleg tarsomere 1 longer than disal tarsomere, 3 about as long as distal tarsomere; midleg and hindleg tarsomeres 1–4 weakly flattened ventrally; midtibia swollen; lateral gonapophysis of female with additional gonapophysis-like structure.
Discussion. This appears to be a monotypic group since only N. tarsalis has the tarsomeres I–IV of midleg and hindleg weakly flattened ventrally and possesses an unidentified gonapophysis-like process near the ventral margin of the lateral gonapophysis extending below the vulva (Fig. 62). The swollen midtibia is also unique.

description: leptocerus group
Description. Antenna clavate or filamentous; foreleg longer than other legs; posterior fork of forewing vein CuP+1A reaches hind margin of forewing at level of radial sector; wings unmarked; foreleg tarsomere 1 at least twice as long as distal tarsomere, 2 slightly shorter or longer than distal tarsomere; midtibia not swollen; female terminalia without gonapophysis-like process extending from lateral margin of lateral gonapophysis, posterior gonapophysis longer than broad, weakly to moderately swollen.
Discussion. This group may be subdivided in the future since it contains some morphologically diverse species. The larvae of N. lithophilus and N. venezolanus are quite distinct morphologically. The antenna can be filamentous (N. lotti) or weakly clavate (N. lithophilus).

Navasoleon bosqui

description: Navasoleon bosqui (Navás)
Gymnocnemia bosqui Navás 1922: 258.
Type data. Female, Santiago del Estero, Argentina. E. Wagner (? MNHN).
Taxonomy. Stange 1967: 58 (in Navasoleon).
Distribution. Argentina.
Discussion. The type of this species has not been found and the original description is inadequate to identify the species. It is probably a synonym of Navasoleon leptocerus (Navás) but for the present it should be considered a nomen dubium.

description: GENUS MELANOSTOMA Schiner
Plesia Macquart 1850: 460. Type-species: Plesia fasciata Macquart, 1850, original designation [Preoccupied by Jurine, 1807]
MELANOSTOMA Schiner 1860: 213. Type-species: Musca mellina Linnaeus, 1758, original designation.
Most authors (cf. Hull 1949a: 332) have overlooked Macquart's designation of fasciata as the type of his genus, and have used the name Plesia as if based on the other included species, anale Macquart. Plesia anale is related to Chrysogaster (subfamily Eristalinae, tribe Brachyopini) and will be designated the type of a new genus. Fortunately, the name Plesia is preoccupied and, therefore, will not supplant the well-known name Melanostoma.
fasciatum Macquart, 1850: 461 (Plesia fasciata). apertum Hutton, 1901: 42.
? scalare, Miller, 1950, not Fabricius, misidentitication.
Melanostoma apertum Hutton was described from a unique female from Christchurch, which Hutton stated to have "unfortunately, lost the antennae." Miller (1921: 308) examined the holotype, noting that part of the antennae remained, and wrote "owing to the length of the existing 2nd joint [of the antenna], it is doubtful if this species belongs to Melanostoma." Of the second antennal segment, Miller wrote the "2nd joint elongate, reaching toward the facial prominence." The holotype is now without a head, so it is impossible to verify Miller's statements. However, the holotype otherwise is in fair condition and is a melanistic specimen of the common fasciatum.
Miller (1950: 96, 144) listed a species, scalare, as separate from fasciatum and as introduced from Europe. I can not confirm this as I have seen no specimens of scalare and suspect Miller may have confused the female of fasciatum with scalare. True scalare from Europe is a much larger species, but the females of the two have almost identical color patterns.
