title: Two new species of freshwater crabs of the genus Potamiscus Alcock, 1909 (Brachyura: Potamidae) from Nagaland, northeastern India

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Pati, Sameer Kumar (2021): Two new species of freshwater crabs of the genus Potamiscus Alcock, 1909 (Brachyura: Potamidae) from Nagaland, northeastern India. Nauplius (e 2021006) 29: 1-14, DOI: 10.1590/2358-2936e2021006, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/2358-2936e2021006ABSTRACTTwo new species of freshwater crabs of the potamid genus Potamiscus Alcock, 1909 are described from Nagaland State of northeastern India. Potamiscus chizami sp. nov. and Potamiscus mima sp. nov. most resemble two Indian congeners [Potamiscus palelensis Mitra and Waikhom, 2019 and Potamiscus tumidulus (Alcock, 1909)] and a species from Myanmar (Potamiscus whitteni Ng, Hla Htoo and Win Mar, 2020) due to the similar terminal segment of the male first gonopod.Both new species can be distinguished from Po.palelensis by their stouter ambulatory legs, from Po. tumidulus by their more-slender male first gonopod, and from Po. whitteni by their strongly concave lateral margins of the male telson and the straight tip of the male first gonopod. Characters of the carapace, male pleon, male gonopods, and female vulvae are employed to differentiate Po. chizami sp. nov. from Po. mima sp. nov.

title: Discovery of the males of Lasioglossum (Eickwortia) hienae and L. (E.) alexanderi, with new distributional records for the species (Apoidea, Halictidae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Hinojosa-Díaz, Ismael A., Martínez Cervantes, Ana Celeste, Gibbs, Jason (2025): Discovery of the males of Lasioglossum (Eickwortia) hienae and L. (E.) alexanderi, with new distributional records for the species (Apoidea, Halictidae). ZooKeys 1228: 53-67, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1228.136718AbstractWithin the diverse genus Lasioglossum, the subgenus Eickwortia as currently understood, encompasses three characteristic species from mountainous areas in Mexico and Central America. Prior to this work only Lasioglossum (Eickwortia) nycteris had descriptions for both male and female. Here we describe and illustrate the previously unknown males of L. (E.) hienae and L. (E.) alexanderi, providing new distributional data for both species, and an updated species identification key for the group.

title: Morphological and molecular evidence for Gothus teemo gen. et sp. nov., a new xanthid crab (Crustacea, Brachyura, Xanthoidea) from coral reefs in the South China Sea, with a review of the taxonomy of Actaeodes consobrinus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1867)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Yuan, Zi-Ming, Jiang, Wei, Sha, Zhong-Li (2024): Morphological and molecular evidence for Gothus teemo gen. et sp. nov., a new xanthid crab (Crustacea, Brachyura, Xanthoidea) from coral reefs in the South China Sea, with a review of the taxonomy of Actaeodes consobrinus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1867). Zoosystematics and Evolution 100 (3): 965-987, DOI: 10.3897/zse.100.117859AbstractA new genus and species within the family Xanthidae MacLeay, 1838, are described from coral reefs in the South China Sea. The new genus, Gothus, with its type species G. teemo sp. nov., is distinguishable from allied genera by characteristics of the carapace, chelipeds, and male pleon. Based on morphological evidence, we tentatively place this genus within the subfamily Euxanthinae Alcock, 1898. However, molecular systematic analysis based on COI, 12 S, 16 S, and H 3 indicates that it does not form a stable monophyletic group with any related subfamily. Another species, Actaeodes consobrinus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1873), is also reclassified into this new genus, based on both morphological and molecular evidence.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Ohtsuka, Susumu, Boxshall, Geoffrey A., Torigoe, Kenji (2000): A new genus and species of the family Mantridae (Copepoda: Cyclopoida) infesting the bivalve Pseudochama retroversa from the Seto Inland Sea, western Japan. Journal of Natural History 34 (10): 1967-1976, DOI: 10.1080/00222930050144800, URL: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00222930050144800Chamicola nagasawai n. gen., n. sp., belonging to the bivalve-infesting cyclopoid family Mantridae, is described from the Seto Inland Sea, western Japan. This is the fi rst recorded occurrence in the Paci fi c Ocean of the family, which previously accommodated only two genera, Mantra and Nearchinotodelphys. The parasite was found in the mantle cavity of Pseudochama retroversa (Lischke) (Family Chamidae), but did not infect Chama japonica (Lamarck). The prevalence and intensity of C. nagasawai in P. retroversa ranged from 11.3 to 25.0%, and from 1.0 to 2.6, respectively. Considering the host a ffi nity and distribution of ancestral and derived character states, the new genus seems to be more closely related to Mantra than to Nearchinotodelphys.

title: Circumscription of the Ganaspis brasiliensis (Ihering, 1905) species complex (Hymenoptera, Figitidae), and the description of two new species parasitizing the spotted wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, 1931 (Diptera, Drosophilidae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Sosa-Calvo, Jeffrey, Forshage, Mattias, Buffington, Matthew L. (2024): Circumscription of the Ganaspis brasiliensis (Ihering, 1905) species complex (Hymenoptera, Figitidae), and the description of two new species parasitizing the spotted wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, 1931 (Diptera, Drosophilidae). Journal of Hymenoptera Research 97: 441-470, DOI: 10.3897/jhr.97.118567AbstractBased on host specificity and distribution data, it has been hypothesized that Ganaspis brasiliensis (Ihering, 1905), a natural enemy of the horticultural pest spotted-wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, 1931 (SWD), was composed of multiple, cryptic species. Parasitoid wasps assigned to the species name Ganaspis brasiliensis and Ganaspis cf. brasiliensis were investigated using a molecular dataset of ultra-conserved elements (UCEs) and morphology. We report strong evidence for the presence of cryptic species based on the combination of UCE data (1,379 UCE loci), host specificity, ovipositor morphology, and distribution data. We describe these new cryptic species as: Ganaspis lupini sp. nov., and Ganaspis kimorum sp. nov. Ganaspis lupini was formerly recognized as Ganaspis brasiliensis G 3, and Ganaspis kimorum as Ganaspis brasiliensis G 1. These two new species appear to be restricted to the temperate climates, whereas Ganaspis brasiliensis (formerly recognized as Ganaspis brasiliensis G 5) has a more pan-tropical distribution. We investigated the characterization of the ovipositor clip of these species, and hypothesize that G. kimorum, which has a reduced ovipositor clip, has an advantage in ovipositing into fresh fruit, still on the host plant, while attacking SWD; as a corollary, G. brasiliensis and G. lupini, which both have a larger ovipositor clip, are better adapted to attacking hosts in softer, rotting fruit on the ground. As Ganaspis kimorum was authorized for release as a biological control agent against SWD under the name Ganaspis brasiliensis G 1, the results here have direct impact on the field of biological control.

title: Processuridia, a new genus for two new species from China and Indochina (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae: Lithosiini)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Huang, Si-Yao, Volynkin, Anton V., Zhu, Li-Juan, Xu, Yong-Qiang, Wang, Min, Fan, Xiao- Ling, Da, Wa (2022): Processuridia, a new genus for two new species from China and Indochina (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae: Lithosiini). Zootaxa 5104 (1): 40-48, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5104.1.2AbstractA new Nudariina genus, Processuridia S.-Y. Huang & Volynkin gen. n. is erected for two new species described herein: Processuridia thangka S.-Y. Huang & Volynkin sp. n. from southeastern Xizang, southwestern China and P. oreas Volynkin & S.-Y. Huang sp. n. from southeastern Yunnan, southwestern China and Mt. Fansipan, northern Vietnam, with P. thangka sp. n. as the type species of the genus. Based on molecular phylogenetic analysis, the new genus is found to be sister to the clade (Asuridia Hampson + Disasuridia Fang), but it can be easily distinguished from both genera by the unique wing pattern and genitalia features. Adults and genitalia of the aforementioned taxa are illustrated.

title: A New Subspecies of Solanum scabrum Miller Found in Uganda

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Olet, Eunice Apio, Heun, Manfred, Lye, Kåre A. (2006): A New Subspecies of Solanum scabrum Miller Found in Uganda. Novon: A Journal for Botanical Nomenclature 16 (4): 508-511, DOI: 10.3417/1055-3177(2006)16[508:ansoss]2.0.co;2, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.3417/1055-3177(2006)16[508:ansoss]2.0.co;2ABSTRACT. Solanum scabrum Miller has been reported almost exclusively from cultivation as a vegetable for human consumption. However, molecular and morphological data indicate that a wild taxon exists in Uganda. This wild taxon was previously identified as the poisonous S. nigrum L., but local people use its leaves as food. This taxon is here described as a new subspecies, S. scabrum Miller subsp. laevis Olet. Morphological descriptions and a key to separate the two subspecies of S. scabrum are given.

Zootaxa 5493 (1): 36-54, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5493.1.2, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5360.3.8AbstractA taxonomic study on bdelloid rotifers collected from terrestrial habitats such as mosses and leaf litter at two different locations in Korea resulted in three new species, Habrotrocha changhoi n. sp., H. microcornis n. sp. and Philodina undulata n. sp. Habrotrocha changhoi n. sp. is easily distinguished from its congeners by five small dorsal humps on preanal pseudosegment. The most significant diagnostic characteristic of Habrotrocha microcornis n. sp. is the tiny spurs with very wide interspace, which is about 4–5 times as wide as spur base width. Habrotrocha changhoi n. sp. and H. microcornis n. sp. are the first new Habrotrocha species from Korea. The most prominent characteristics that distinguish Philodina undulata n. sp. from its congeners are the first trunk pseudosegment expanded anteriorly in feeding as well as the plump trunk that has wavy lateral margins and abruptly tapers to rump in feeding. Here these three new species are described in detail and illustrated. In addition, the partial sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (CO1) for these three new species are provided here.

title: A new species of Lethrinops (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) from a Lake Malawi satellite lake, believed to be extinct in the wild

(2023): A new species of Lethrinops (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) from a Lake Malawi satellite lake, believed to be extinct in the wild. Zootaxa 5318 (4): 515-530, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5318.4.5, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5318.4.5AbstractA new species of cichlid fish, Lethrinops chilingali is described from specimens collected from Lake Chilingali, near Nkhotakota, Malawi. It is assigned to the genus Lethrinops based on the form of the lower jaw dental arcade and by the absence of traits diagnostic of the phenotypically similar Ctenopharynx, Taeniolethrinops and Tramitichromis. It also lacks the enlarged cephalic lateral line canal pores found in species of Alticorpus and Aulonocara. The presence of a broken horizontal stripe on the flanks of females and immature/non-territorial males of Lethrinops chilingali distinguishes them from all congeners, including Lethrinops lethrinus, in which the stripe is typically continuous. Lethrinops chilingali also has a relatively shorter snout, shorter lachrymal bone and less ventrally positioned mouth than Lethrinops lethrinus. It appears likely that Lethrinops chilingali is now extinct in the wild, as this narrow endemic species has not been positively recorded in the natural environment since 2009. Breeding populations remain in captivity.

The splay-footed cricket genus Comicus is confirmed to be genetically distinct from all Stenopelmatidae. We add two specimens to our previously published phylogenetic tree for New World Stenopelmatus Jerusalem cricket species and report the first multilocus DNA recovery for S. ater from Costa Rica. Male internal genitalia may be of systematic value in Jerusalem crickets, but we believe they should be analyzed when in their unfolded, “physiologically functional” configuration, where morphological characters can be seen in more detail when compared to their preserved, folded state. We describe Stenopelmatus nuevoguatemalae n. sp. from Guatemala.

Atkinsoniella piscioscillum Jiang & Yang, sp. nov. is similar to A. yani Yang, Meng & Li, 2017 in appearance, but can be distinguished by the color of the legs, the characteristic of the two longitudinal red stripes on the corium, and the morphology of the male genitalia. Atkinsoniella hippocampus Jiang & Yang, sp. nov. is similar to nine Atkinsoniella species, but can be differentiated by the characteristics of aedeagus and subgenital plate. All type specimens of the two new species are deposited at the Institute of Entomology, Guizhou University, Guiyang, China (GUGC).
