Based on detailed light and scanning electron microscopy observations and comparison with similar larger-celled Stauroneis species worldwide, the taxon is described as new: Stauroneis fuegiana Casa & Van de Vijver sp. nov. Stauroneis fuegiana can be distinguished based on the slightly raised marginal crest, the typical broadly lanceolate valve outline with subrostrate apices, the almost rectangular central area and its valve dimensions.Comments are made on its taxonomic position and how the new taxon can be distinguished from other larger-celled Stauroneis species. Brief notes on the ecology and distribution are added.Key-words: Stauroneis, Tierra del Fuego, peatbogs, morphology, new species

title: New Species of Anoura (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) from Colombia, with Systematic Remarks and Notes on the Distribution of the A. geoffroyi Complex

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Hugo Mantilla-Meluk, Robert J. Baker (2010): New Species of Anoura (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) from Colombia, with Systematic Remarks and Notes on the Distribution of the A. geoffroyi Complex. Occasional Papers of the Museum 292: 1-22, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.15777715ABSTRACTA new species of nectar-feeding tailless bat in the genus Anoura (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) is described from the highlands of the Colombian Andes and the independent mountain system of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. Complete zygomatic arches, a relatively wide uropatagium, and wide first upper molars with poorly developed paracones are proposed as synapomorphies of the new species and A. geoffroyi geoffroyi. However, the two taxa are allopatrically distributed, and the new species is morphologically distinguished from A. g. geoffroyi by a smaller skull and body size, more massive and squared molars with wider hypoconal basins, smaller P4 that are not laterally compressed, reduced anterobasal cusps, and medial internal cusps that are enlarged. Based on morphological analysis the distributional ranges of A. geoffroyi subspecies were interpreted as follows: A. g. lasiopyga is restricted to Central America from Costa Rica north to Mexico; A. g. peruana is restricted to the mid to high elevations of the Andean system from Bolivia to Colombia; and A. g. geoffroyi is restricted to the mid and low elevations of eastern versant of the Andes from Brazil to northern South America, including the island of Trinidad. Further, the morphological affinities between A. g. apolinari and members of the A. geoffroyi complex support its current recognition as a junior synonym of A. g. peruana. Based on the morphological distinction observed between A. g. peruana and A. g. geoffroyi, including the absence of complete zygomatic arches, a more delicate rostrum, less massive molars, and overall darker coat coloration, as well as the ecological differentiation of the areas inhabited by these two taxa, we recommend the elevation of A. peruana to specific level.Key words: Anoura, bats, Colombia, new species

Eichleriella yunnanensis is characterized by the buff to clay-pink hymenial surface, a monomitic hyphal system with thin- to thick walled generative hyphae having the clamp connections, and thin-walled, subglobose to subclavate basidia with longitudinally septate, and thin-walled, curved-cylindrical to allantoid basidiospores. The phylogenetic tree inferred from ITS+nLSU sequences revealed that the new species was nested into the family Auriculariaceae within the order Auriculariales, in which it was closely related to the species E. discolor and E. xinpingensis. On the basis of ITS sequences indicated that the new species was nested into the genus Eichleriella, and also grouped with the clade comprising E. discolor and E. xinpingensis.

The species is known only from the type series, as many other records from areas outside the type locality have turned out to represent distinct species. We provide an expanded morphological description of the species based on topotypic material and other samples that were assigned using genetic data. Cnemaspis gracilis is now known with certainty from three localities in the vicinity of Palakkad, Palakkad District, Kerala, and Valparai town, Coimbatore district, Tamil Nadu, besides from an introduced population in the Timber Market, Kolhapur city, Kolhapur district, Maharashtra, India. The species is 7.6–15.8 % divergent on the ND2 gene from described members of the gracilis clade and can be diagnosed by a combination of morphological characters including body size, number of paravertebral tubercles between limb insertions, number of dorsal tubercle rows, number of ventral scale rows across the belly, number of femoral and precloacal pores and poreless scales separating these series in males, and the presence of a single central black ocellus on the neck and a smaller one on the occiput. The assignment of extant populations to the species, a detailed morphological description and genetic data will allow the description of many more species from within this diverse clade of diurnal geckos.

A detailed comparison between the newly discovered orchid and other members of the genus, Liparis, was conducted. The new plant is characterized by the combination of the following features: a long rachis with 45 to 55 flowers; white sepals, petals and column; a greenish lip with a purplish center; strongly recurved and revolute dorsal sepals and petals; strongly recurved, oblong lateral sepals; a cordate lip that is strongly deflexed below the middle, with a two-lobed apex and a two-lobed callus at the base; an arcuate column with a lamella extending along the center almost to the stigma, and with a pair of broad wings toward the apex. These features distinguish the new orchid from all other known species of Liparis. We proceeded to a phylogenetic analysis to ascertain the systematic position of this enigmatic species. Molecular analyses based on nuclear ribosomal ITS and plastid mat K DNA sequence data supports the recognition of L. wenshanensis as a distinct species.

It is the first fossil larva that can be attributed to Elmidae with certainty. A generic assignation is not possible, because the larva is strongly compressed, and the most important characters are not visible or poorly preserved. The larva is described morphologically and illustrated by photographs and line drawings. A larva of a holometabolous insect from Baltic amber, which was published recently as a member of Elmidae by Zippel et al. (2022), possesses no structural characters that would clearly suggest placement in this family. A photograph of the hitherto unknown larva of the extant Grouvellinus rioloides from Kyrgyzstan is included for comparison.

title: Fossil record of a Characiform in the Monte Hermoso Formation (lower Pliocene), Buenos Aires, Argentina. Palaeobiogeographical implications

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Bogan, Sergio, Agnolin, Federico, Mirande, Juan Marcos (2021): Fossil record of a Characiform in the Monte Hermoso Formation (lower Pliocene), Buenos Aires, Argentina. Palaeobiogeographical implications. Comptes Rendus Palevol 20 (4): 49-55, DOI: 10.5852/cr-palevol2021v20a4, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5852/cr-palevol2021v20a4ABSTRACTThe fossil record of fishes from the Farola de Monte Hermoso locality (lower Pliocene) in the southern Buenos Aires province, Argentina, shows an unusual composition. The locality at the southern boundary of the Brazilian Ichthyogeographic Realm. However, its fossil record is composed of fossil fishes that are not necessarily related to Brazilian lineages, namely indeterminate siluriforms, trichomycterid catfishes, and percomorphaceans. The aim of the present contribution is to describe and report for the first time isolated specimens belonging to Characidae fishes. In the Pampean region the fossil record of characids is restricted to Oligosarcus Günther, 1864 sp. from the late-middle Pleistocene. The present finding fills a temporal gap between the Paleogene and Quaternary reports and indicates that Brazilian fish lineages were present in the area by early Pliocene times, and may constitute an indirect evidence of the evolution of the basins in the southern Pampean Area.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Lacerda, Mauro B. S., Aragão, Paulo R. L., Vieira, Fabiana S., Sales, Marcos A. F., Liparini, Alexandre (2023): On the first Baryonychinae (Theropoda, Spinosauridae) teeth from South America. Zootaxa 5264 (4): 526-544, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5264.4.4, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1094/PDIS-04-22-0755-PDNAbstractWe report the first occurrence in South America of spinosaurid specimens belonging to the clade Baryonychinae. The material comprises three tooth crowns recovered from the Lower Cretaceous (Berriasian–Valanginian) of the Feliz Deserto Formation, State of Sergipe, northeast Brazil. The three specimens have the typical conidont condition, displaying a fluted morphology, veined enamel texture and carinae extending to the cervix region, conditions similar to those shared among spinosaurid theropods. Furthermore, a notable feature is the presence of a serrated carinae composed of 6–7 diminutive denticles per millimetre, a key feature shared by baryonychine spinosaurids. Phylogenetic and multivariate analyses performed on dentition-based and crown-based datasets of theropod taxa confirm the relationship of the three tooth crowns described here with the well-supported spinosaurid clade. Our results retrieve the taxa which comprise the “classically” baryonychine clade as individual branches within a polytomy which includes the three tooth crowns and a subclade of spinosaurines (Spinosaurus + Angaturama / Irritator). Additionally, the discriminant and cluster analyses suggest that the materials are more similar to Suchomimus than to Baryonyx morphometrically, but clearly bearing similarities with baryonychines (sharing a similar morphospace). These new findings paleogeographically expand the occurrence of this clade to western Gondwana, and comprise one of the oldest spinosaurid records worldwide, which brings implications on hypotheses for the emergence and evolution of the clade. Furthermore, these new records indicate the presence of more than one spinosaurid taxon in the Lower Cretaceous deltaic paleoenvironment of the Feliz Deserto Formation.
