title: Appearances often deceive in racerunners: integrative approach reveals two new species of Eremias (Squamata: Lacertidae) from Pakistan

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Masroor, Rafaqat, Khan, Muazzam Ali, Nadeem, Muhammad Sajid, Amir, Shabir Ali, Khisroon, Muhammad, Jablonski, Daniel (2022): Appearances often deceive in racerunners: integrative approach reveals two new species of Eremias (Squamata: Lacertidae) from Pakistan. Zootaxa 5175 (1): 55-87, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5175.1.3AbstractBased on newly provided morphological and previously published genetic data, we describe two new distinctive sympatric lacertid lizards of the genus Eremias (subgenus Aspidorhinus) from the arid mountains of northwestern Balochistan Province, Pakistan. The new species, Eremias killasaifullahi sp. nov. and Eremias rafiqi sp. nov. are distinguished from all other species of the subgenus Aspidorhinus (E. afghanistanica, E. fahimii, E. isfahanica, E. kopetdaghica, E. lalezharica, E. montana, E. nikolskii, E. papenfussi, E. persica, E. regeli, E. roborowskii, E. strauchi, E. suphani, and E. velox) by unique morphological characters and genetic differentiation. In the molecular phylogeny of Aspidorhinus, both new taxa are well-supported lineages differentiated from other species of this subgenus by uncorrected p distances from 8.5% to 21.6%, respectively. Both new species belong to E. persica complex where E. rafiqi sp. nov. is partly similar in dorsal color pattern to E. persica but can be distinguished from this species by unique meristic and morphometric characters. Eremias rafiqi sp. nov. is found in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and eastern Iran. Eremias killasaifullahi sp. nov. can be differentiated from E. persica by its distant distribution, dorsal color and pattern, smaller size, and less number of gulars and ventral scales. Eremias killasaifullahi sp. nov. is only known from the type locality and represents the local microendemism, along with other endemic species of reptiles reported from this part of Pakistan. We, however, expect that E. killasaifullahi sp. nov. could have a broader range in northwestern Pakistan and southeastern Afghanistan, which should be an object of following investigations. Our data show that remote areas between Hindu Kush Mountains and Indus River need attention as they most probably represent possible sources of genetic and species diversity in the region.

title: Ultrastructure of four Surirella taxa (Bacillariophyceae) from Qinghai Province, northwest China, with reference to the characteristics of portulae

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Long, Ji-Yan, Liu, Bing, Rioual, Patrick, Yang, Bin, Zhou, Min (2023): Ultrastructure of four Surirella taxa (Bacillariophyceae) from Qinghai Province, northwest China, with reference to the characteristics of portulae. Phytotaxa 592 (2): 163-177, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.592.2.11, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1094/PDIS-04-22-0755-PDNAbstractDuring our investigations on the freshwater diatoms from Qinghai Province, China, four sympatric Surirella taxa belonging to the group Pinnatae were analysed. Based on morphological observations derived from light and scanning electron microscopy, three of these four taxa were identified as: S. minuta, S. lacrimula, and S. brebissonii var. kuetzingii. The fourth taxon is described as Surirella liubingii sp. nov., a new species with a unique combination of characteristics. These include the distribution pattern of its costa-stria bundles (CSBs) alternating with its over-fibula costae (OFCs), which is formed by the distinctly elevated CSBs on the valve face, mostly composed of three costae, and OFCs with a remarkedly lower position. Other characteristics include the presence of robust fibulae extending to the valve midline, the presence of only one portula between two adjacent fibulae, and a “pseudoseptum” extending internally from the valve margin. From the observations on these four Surirella taxa, we described and discussed two types of fibula (one in which the fibula nearly reaches the valve midline and one with short fibula) and two types of portula morphology (one with only one portula between two adjacent fibulae and the other with 2–4 portulae between two adjacent fibulae).

title: Hirudinea from the Apolobamba in the Bolivian Andes, Including Three New Species of Helobdella (Clitellata: Hirudinea)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article SIDDALL, MARK E. (2001): Hirudinea from the Apolobamba in the Bolivian Andes, Including Three New Species of Helobdella (Clitellata: Hirudinea). American Museum Novitates 3341: 1-15, DOI: 10.1206/0003-0082(2001)341&lt;0001:HFTAIT&gt;2.0.CO;2, URL: http://www.bioone.org/doi/abs/10.1206/0003-0082%282001%29341%3C0001%3AHFTAIT%3E2.0.CO%3B2ABSTRACTFour species of leeches were found in the Apolobamba Range of the Bolivian Andes. Collections were made from 4100 m down to 2820 m —among the highest collecting localities ever for leeches. There were three new species in the genus Helobdella including Helobdella ringueleti, Helobdella nununununojensis, and Helobdella sorojchi, as well as one representative of Cylicobdella coccinea. One of the new species exhibited an attitude of parental care unique among glossiphoniids in that the brood was enclosed within two halves of the folded parent. None of these species is known to be sanguivorous.

It is the fourth species to be assigned to the genus and the second species described from the Western North Atlantic. The species can be distinguished from Booralana tricarinata Camp and Heard, 1988 and the other species by the sub-triangular pleotelson and the uropodal exopod of mature males being far longer than endopod, with both rami extending well beyond the posterior margin of the pleotelson. Additionally, pleopods 3 and 4 lack a prominent angle at midpoint of ramus.

title: THREE NEW ANNUAL FISHES OF THE GENUS Austrolebias FROM THE LAGUNA DOS PATOS SYSTEM, SOUTHERN BRAZIL, AND A REDESCRIPTION OF A. adloffi (AHL) (CYPRINODONTIFORMES: RIVULIDAE)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article M Costa, Wilson J. E., Cheffe, Morevy M. (2001): THREE NEW ANNUAL FISHES OF THE GENUS Austrolebias FROM THE LAGUNA DOS PATOS SYSTEM, SOUTHERN BRAZIL, AND A REDESCRIPTION OF A. adloffi (AHL) (CYPRINODONTIFORMES: RIVULIDAE). Comun. Mus. Ciênc. Tecnol. PUCRS, Sér. Zool. 14 (2): 179-200, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.10138519ABSTRACTThe clade herein denominated as the Auslrolebias adloffi species-group is supported by an apomorphic male color pattern of male (dark gray to black vertical stripes on a bright gray ground color on body side) and a derived juvenile and female color pattern (a pair of black blotehes, vertically arranged, on the posterior portion of caudal peduncle). It comprises A. adloffi, herein redescribed, and three new species herein described, all from southern Brazil. Austrolebias charrua sp. n., from the coastal plains adjacent to lagoa Mirim, is diagnosed by the higher counts of supraorbital neuromasts and longitudinal series scales. Austrolebias minuano sp. n., from the plains close to the southern tip of laguna dos Patos, is diagnosed by a deeper body and high number of second pharyngobranchial teeth. Austrolebias nigrofasciatus sp. n., from the inner drainages between laguna dos Patos and lagoa Mirim, is diagnosed by having fewer anal-ﬁn rays and two unique color patterns in male. Austrolebias adlofﬁ, from the lower rio Jacuí-Guaíba basin, is deﬁned by the higher number of anal-ﬁn rays of female and relative position of dorsal and anal-ﬁn origin of female.

title: Resolution of the Eremophila tietkensii (Scrophulariaceae) species complex based on congruence between morphological and molecular pattern analyses

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Curtis, Amy L., Grierson, Pauline F., Batley, Jacqueline, Naaykens, Jeremy, Fowler, Rachael M., Severn-Ellis, Anita, Thiele, Kevin R. (2022): Resolution of the Eremophila tietkensii (Scrophulariaceae) species complex based on congruence between morphological and molecular pattern analyses. Australian Systematic Botany 35 (1): 1-18, DOI: 10.1071/SB21005, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/sb21005ABSTRACTEremophila R.Br. comprises at least 238 species endemic to Australia, with many more having not yet been formally described. Three putative new taxa, namely, E. sp. Hamersley Range (K. Walker KW 136), E. sp. Calvert Range (A. A. Burbidge 738) and E. sp. Rudall River (P. G. Wilson 10512), were segregated from a broadly defined E. tietkensii F.Muell. & Tate by J. Hurter at the Western Australian Herbarium in 2012. Both E. sp. Hamersley Range and E. sp. Rudall River are listed as being of conservation concern in Western Australia, the former occurring in the Pilbara region in areas of prospective interest for mining development. We sought to determine whether these phrase-named entities should be formally described as new species, using multivariate analyses of morphometric and molecular data derived from specimens in the Western Australia Herbarium. Eremophila sp. Rudall River could not be adequately separated from E. tietkensii by either morphological or molecular data, and is here included within that species. By contrast, E. sp. Hamersley Range and E. sp. Calvert Range are clearly morphologically and genetically distinct. We thus describe them here as the new species E. naaykensii A.L.Curtis & K.R.Thiele and E. hurteri A.L.Curtis & K.R.Thiele. The recognition of these taxa will help inform their conservation prioritisation and subsequent management.

Within the genus the proportion between body length and wing and the body shape of both sexes are of great taxonomic importance. Here we describe two new Anax species: Anax insulanus sp. nov., from the Solomon Islands and A. tonga sp. nov., from Tonga. To distinguish both species from a very similar sympatric congener we compare the S3 Index which is defined as the relative length and width at its narrowest point of abdominal segment 3. Anax fumosus celebense Lieftinck, 1942 is raised to species level. Diagnostic characters of male and female (if available) are illustrated. A key is presented for the identification of the males of the 14 species of Anax known to occur in the Australian, the Oceanian and the south of the Indomalayan Biogeographical Realms.
