title: Description of two new species of freshwater leeches of the genus Helobdella (Hirudinea, Glossiphoniidae) from Mexico, with a redescription of Helobdella socimulcensis (Caballero, 1931)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Torres-Carrera, Gerardo, Duarte-De Lima, Lucas, Oceguera-Figueroa, Alejandro (2025): Description of two new species of freshwater leeches of the genus Helobdella (Hirudinea, Glossiphoniidae) from Mexico, with a redescription of Helobdella socimulcensis (Caballero, 1931). ZooKeys 1261: 141-164, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1261.162279AbstractFreshwater leeches of the genus Helobdella Blanchard, 1896 (Annelida: Clitellata) are widely distributed in the New World, with most of the species occurring in the neotropics and a single species native to Europe. Species of the genus are characterized by the presence of an eversible proboscis, dorsoventrally flattened body, presence of a single pair of eyespots, and a preference for feeding on the hemolymph of aquatic invertebrates. In this study, two new species of Helobdella are described based on specimens collected in Mexico, Helobdella papilloprocta sp. nov. and Helobdella gulloae sp. nov. These specimens were preliminarily identified as H. socimulcensis (Caballero, 1931), but detailed morphological and molecular analyses confirmed their status as separate species. In addition, a neotype for Helobdella socimulcensis is designated, and a redescription of the species is provided based on specimens from the type locality: Xochimilco, Mexico City, Mexico. Finally, H. austinensis in Nuevo León and H. europaea in Morelos, Mexico are reported for the first time, representing new records for the country. In total, ten species of Helobdella are known from Mexico.

title: A new genus and two new species of freshwater mussels (Bivalvia, Unionidae) from Sichuan, China: Overlooked cryptic endemism in the upper Yangtze River Basin

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Chen, Hui, Xiang, Hong-Quan, Dai, Yu-Ting, Chen, Zhong-Guang, He, Yue-Ming, Guo, Ge, Wu, Xiao-Ping, Huang, Xiao-Chen (2025): A new genus and two new species of freshwater mussels (Bivalvia, Unionidae) from Sichuan, China: Overlooked cryptic endemism in the upper Yangtze River Basin. Zoosystematics and Evolution 101 (4): 1459-1470, DOI: 10.3897/zse.101.161018AbstractFreshwater mussels are ecologically vital but understudied in China’s Sichuan Basin, a biodiversity hotspot with significant gaps in documented diversity. Here, we conducted an investigation into the Unionidae species in Dazhou, Sichuan Province, China, and discovered two species of Unionidae that had never been recorded before. This paper confirmed through mitochondrial phylogenomic analyses that they represent new species belonging to the genera Pseudocuneopsis Huang, Dai & Wu, 2022: Pseudocuneopsis perflora H. Chen, H.-Q. Xiang, Y.-M. He, X.-C. Huang & X.-P. Wu, sp. nov. and a new genus and species: Tongchuania mingiana H. Chen, H.-Q. Xiang, Y.-M. He, X.-C. Huang & X.-P. Wu, gen. et sp. nov. Additionally, the shell morphology and soft-body anatomical characteristics of the two new species was described. These discoveries not only expand the known diversity of Unionidae in the upper Yangtze River Basin but also highlight the Sichuan Basin as a potential center of cryptic endemism. Our findings underscore the importance of combining molecular and morphological methods for uncovering hidden diversity in understudied regions and provide critical data for the conservation of China’s imperiled freshwater mussel fauna.

title: Three new species and a new record of Conocybe section Pilosellae (Bolbitiaceae, Agaricales) from Jilin Province, China

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Song, Han-bing, Bau, Tolgor (2025): Three new species and a new record of Conocybe section Pilosellae (Bolbitiaceae, Agaricales) from Jilin Province, China. MycoKeys 114: 67-94, DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.114.140056AbstractThis study is based on the phylogenetic framework of Conocybe section Pilosellae and incorporates materials from Jilin Province. A systematic phylogenetic tree was constructed using maximum likelihood and Bayesian analyses of internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) and nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA (nrLSU), and translation elongation factor 1 - alpha (tef 1 - α) sequences. As a result, three new species were discovered in Jilin Province: Conocybe verna, which emerges in broad-leaved forests during spring; C. angulispora, characterized by angular and submitriform or slightly hexagonal basidiospores; and C. rubrocyanea, with basidiomata displaying a reddish hue when fresh and a bluish hue when dry. Additionally, a new record for China, C. hexagonospora was identified, characterized by the lack of distinct pubescence on the pileus and slightly hexagonal basidiospores, increasing the total number of species within sect. Pilosellae to 22. Key for sect. Pilosellae is provided, accompanied by morphological descriptions and line drawings for the new species and a new record for China.

title: Three new species of Vaccinium L. (Ericaceae) from Mindanao Island, Philippines

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Tamayo, Maverick N., Amoroso, Victor B., Coritico, Fulgent P., Penneys, Darin S., Callado, John Rey C., Horner, John D., Fritsch, Peter W. (2024): Three new species of Vaccinium L. (Ericaceae) from Mindanao Island, Philippines. Phytotaxa 647 (1): 19-33, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.647.1.2, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.647.1.2AbstractThree new species of Vaccinium endemic to the island of Mindanao, Philippines are here described and illustrated. Vaccinium fallax most closely resembles V. myrtoides, but differs by having smaller leaves, caducous bracts, shorter pedicels, a broadly obconical hypanthium, broadly triangular calyx lobes, and a deep pink and broadly urceolate corolla. It grows on exposed areas and among sulfur vents at and near the summit of Mt. Apo. Vaccinium gamay most closely resembles V. gitingense, but differs in having shorter inflorescences, early caducous inflorescence bracts, shorter pedicels, presence of clavate glands on the hypanthium, and an absence of anther spurs. It grows on exposed areas in the ultramafic forest of Mt. Hamiguitan. It is one of only two Philippine Vaccinium species possessing distinctly callose-thickened calyx lobes, the other being V. gitingense. Vaccinium vomicum most closely resembles V. carmesinum, but differs by having smaller leaves, presence of glands on the extreme end of the leaf blade base, presence of clavate glands on the hypanthium, shorter stamens, and presence of stalked glands on the dentate apex of the tubules. It grows in the mossy rainforest of Mt. Kitanglad, and it is the only Philippine species of Vaccinium with glands on the extreme end of its leaf blade base. Following IUCN guidelines, we propose a conservation status of Critically Endangered for V. fallax, Endangered for V. gamay, and Data Deficient for V. vomicum. With these discoveries, the number of Vaccinium species in Mindanao Islands increases to 22 and in the Philippines to 44. Furthermore, the Mindanao Islands can now be considered the center of Vaccinium diversity in the Philippines.

All species were recorded feeding on Guadua weberbaueri Pilger (Poaceae: Bambusoideae: Bambuseae). One larva of each species was collected in nature at Finca Las Piedras, a biological research station located in the Amazonian lowlands of Madre de Dios, Peru. Larvae were reared to adulthood in an onsite laboratory using leaves from G. weberbaueri. We present measurements, descriptions, durations, and photographs of recorded larval instars and pupae, illustrations of larval head capsules, and details of the host plant.

title: On Cytheridella whitmani sp. nov. (Crustacea, Ostracoda) from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, USA), with a reappraisal of the taxonomy of the genus

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Martens, Koen, Almeida, Nadiny Martins de, Shribak, Michael, Higuti, Janet, Schön, Isa (2025): On Cytheridella whitmani sp. nov. (Crustacea, Ostracoda) from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, USA), with a reappraisal of the taxonomy of the genus. ZooKeys 1224: 317-348, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1224.135458AbstractCytheridella whitmani Martens, sp. nov. is described from lakes on Cape Cod (MA, USA). The species differs from its congeners mainly by the shape of the female carapace and by the morphology of the hemipenis, especially of the distal lobe and the copulatory process. The literature on the genus is reviewed and the synonymy of the fossil Cytheridella boldii Purper, 1974 with the type species C. ilosvayi Daday, 1905, both described from South America, is confirmed. The status of Cytheridella americana (Furtos, 1936) is reverted to that of “ uncertain species ”. Beside the type species and the new species, the genus currently includes only three further species from Africa: C. monodi Klie, 1936, C. damasi Klie, 1944 (with synonym C. chariessa Rome, 1977), and C. tepida Victor, 1987. The morphology of the new species is discussed in comparison with the congeneric species, especially regarding the valve ornamentation, the structure and function of the third thoracopod, the hemipenis and the caudal ramus. It is suggested that C. whitmani is a recent invasive species in the lakes of the Cape Cod peninsula. Its occurrence at northern latitudes is unexpected, as its congeneric species are consistently (sub-) tropical.

title: Description and bioacoustics of three new Eurycorypha (Orthoptera, Tettigonioidea) species from Tanzania and Ghana, with notes on their biology

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Hemp, Claudia, Massa, Bruno, Heller, Klaus-Gerhard (2025): Description and bioacoustics of three new Eurycorypha (Orthoptera, Tettigonioidea) species from Tanzania and Ghana, with notes on their biology. Journal of Orthoptera Research 34 (2): 187-200, DOI: 10.3897/jor.34.137613AbstractThree new species of Eurycorypha Stål, 1873 are described, originating from Tanzania and Ghana. E. willschi from Ghana is widespread throughout central and west Africa, while the two species from Tanzania, E. spicula and E. paraspicula, are restricted to specific mountain ranges within the Eastern Arc Mountains. Two of the species were reared from nymphs, providing valuable data on their nymphal development and diet. The male songs represent amplitude patterns previously unknown in the bioacoustically hyperdiverse genus Eurycorypha. In the two species with known duets, the females were found to respond shortly after the male songs, while in E. willschi, they responded only after one of the two elements of the male song. How habitat drives speciation even in fully alate species is discussed, reflecting the extent and isolation of certain habitats. The wing shape of Eurycorypha species also appears influential; rounder, less flight-active species tend to be more restricted than elongate species in expansive habitats.

title: Searching for Mediterranean bath sponges (Demospongiae: Dictyoceratida: Spongiidae) in the Northeast Atlantic reveals a new species: an integrative taxonomic approach

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Grenier, Marie, Simmler, Charlotte, Chevaldonné, Pierre, Callizot, Noëlle, Pérez, Thierry (2024): Searching for Mediterranean bath sponges (Demospongiae: Dictyoceratida: Spongiidae) in the Northeast Atlantic reveals a new species: an integrative taxonomic approach. Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 202: 1-23, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlad166ABSTRACTBath sponges, included in the Spongiidae (Demospongiae: Dictyoceratida), are distributed across the oceans of the world, with a greater abundance in temperate, subtropical, and tropical zones. Their harvest started during ancient times in the Mediterranean Sea, which shed light on the whole family. Most of the Mediterranean Spongiidae have been reported repeatedly from the Northeast Atlantic, notably along the Iberian peninsula. The aim of this study was to clarify the taxonomic status of these sponges after a recent sampling effort in the French Pays Basque and the Spanish Cantabria, complemented by several Mediterranean Sea stations, including the Strait of Gibraltar. An integrative taxonomic approach was adopted for the first time on a set of Spongiidae samples from the Northeast Atlantic, assessing the congruence of analyses of: (i) the morphology of the spongin skeleton; (ii) two different parts of the genome (mitochondrial and nuclear); and (iii) metabolomic fingerprints, to delimit the frontiers between species better. A new bath sponge species is described herein, and significant advances and changes are proposed for the systematics of the family.

ZooKeys 1207: 151-165, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1207.119398AbstractThe present contribution is devoted to the review of some species of Mordellidae belonging to the Italian fauna described by Mariano Zuccarello Patti and Mario Enrico Franciscolo. New taxonomic combinations are proposed: Mediimorda argyropleura (Franciscolo, 1942), comb. nov., Mordella quomoi Franciscolo, 1942, comb. rev., and Mordellokoiles grandii Franciscolo, 1942, stat. nov. Mediimorda argyropleura, Mordella quomoi and Mordellokoiles grandii are considered species that are not part of the Italian fauna. In addition, given the impossibility of identifying the species based on its original description and the destruction of type material, Mordella aradasiana Patti, 1840 is treated as nomen dubium.
