title: The Lanternfly genus Pyrops in Vietnam: A new species from Central Vietnam, taxonomic changes, checklist, identification key (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Fulgoridae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Constant, Jérôme, Pham, Hong Thai (2022): The Lanternfly genus Pyrops in Vietnam: A new species from Central Vietnam, taxonomic changes, checklist, identification key (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Fulgoridae). European Journal of Taxonomy 813 (1): 123-154, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2022.813.1741, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5852/ejt.2022.813.1741Abstract. A new species of the genus Pyrops Spinola, 1839 (Fulgoridae), P. buomvoi sp. nov., is described from Ca Na, Ninh Thuan Province in Central Vietnam. It is attributed to the candelaria group and compared with the other species of the genus. Pyrops lathburii (Kirby, 1818) is proposed as a senior synonym of P. astarte (Distant, 1914), transferred back to the candelaria group from the pyrrhorhynchus group, and recorded from Laos for the first time. The candelaria and pyrorhynchus groups are defined and commented on. Intraspecific variation in the colour of the hind wings is recorded for the first time in Pyrops condorinus (Lallemand, 1960). A checklist of the 12 Vietnamese species of Pyrops and an illustrated key which can also be used for Laos, Cambodia and Southern Continental China, are given. Pyrops buomvoi sp. nov. is the first new species of Pyrops discovered in Indochina for more than 50 years. Intraspecific colour variation in the species of Pyrops is briefly discussed.

(Tripyloididae) and Linhystera filiformis sp. nov. (Xyalidae) from an intertidal beach of the Yellow China Sea. Zootaxa 5507 (3): 456-466, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5507.3.4, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5507.3.4AbstractTwo new free-living nematode species, Ingenia major sp. nov. and Linhystera filiformis sp. nov., are described from the Yellow China Sea. Ingenia major sp. nov. is characterized by a large body size, six outer labial setae articulated, buccal cavity barrel-shaped with three teeth, amphidial fovea small and unispiral, spicules thin and almost straight with a pair of ventro-laterally directed teeth hooked distally, gubernaculum kidney-shaped with triangular cuticularized projection, tail conical and with swollen-terminus. Relationship between Ingenia and Bathylaimus is discussed, and Ingenia communis Gagarin & Thanh, 2007 is transferred as Bathylaimus communis comb. n. based on the buccal cavity shape. Linhystera filiformis sp. nov. is characterized by filiform body, buccal cavity minute and slit-like, six outer labial setae and four cephalic setae in the same circle and with the same length, amphidial fovea relatively small and circular, spicules short and sickle-shaped, gubernaculum boat-shaped, tail filiform with three terminal setae. An identification key for valid species of Linhystera is also given.

title: Incipient insular differentiation of Carex firmula (Cyperaceae, former genus Uncinia) in the Juan Fernández archipelago (Chile)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Ridley, Rhonda, Jimenez-Mejias, Pedro (2022): Incipient insular differentiation of Carex firmula (Cyperaceae, former genus Uncinia) in the Juan Fernández archipelago (Chile). Phytotaxa 533 (5): 267-286, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.533.5.3AbstractA morphological and molecular study was carried out on two species of Carex from the former genus Uncinia from mainland South America and Juan Fernández Islands: C. firmula (Kük) J.R. Starr and C. subsacculata (G.A.Wheeler & Goetgh.) J.R.Starr. Both species share the particular character of having articulated pistillate scales that leave behind on the spike rachis a saccate stipe-like appendage after falling. We detected within C. firmula morphological differences between mainland South American specimens and Juan Fernández specimens, mainly regarding flower density and utricle size. On the contrary, the molecular analysis showed no molecular differentiation between the two groups of populations. Whereas, strong molecular and morphological support were found for C. subsacculata. As such, we recommend that the populations of C. firmula found on Juan Fernández and those found in the mainland should be recognised as different subspecies: island Carex firmula subsp. firmula and mainland C. firmula subsp. tenuis (Poepp. ex Kunth) R.Ridley & Jim. -Mejías. We discuss that the morphological differences may be a result of isolation in an oceanic island environment and have effect on seed dispersal. Taxonomic descriptions, images of diagnostic characters and a key are included.

Zootaxa 5424 (1): 80-98, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5424.1.4, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5424.1.4AbstractOligobregma represents the most speciose genus of Scalibregmatidae with 17 valid species. Most of them occur at great depths and are found living on soft bottoms. Here, we present the descriptions of O. nonatoi sp. nov., O. cruzae sp. nov., and O. bakkeni sp. nov., sampled from the Brazilian continental shelf and slope, and a key to all species of Oligobregma. O. nonatoi sp. nov. differs from its congeners by the presence of a triangular prostomium with short rounded horns, acicular spines on notopodia of chaetigers 1–4 and on neuropodia of chaetigers 1–3. Oligobregma cruzae sp. nov. can be distinguished by the presence of a quadrangular prostomium with two short, rounded horns, acicular spines on chaetigers 1–4, and lyrate chaetae from chaetiger 5. Finally, O. bakkeni sp. nov. is unique among its congeners by the presence of acicular spines with rounded tips. This is the first record of this genus along the Brazilian coast and the specimens were collected on Espírito Santo, Campos and Santos sedimentary basins, both located in Brazilian southeast region. The sampling campaigns were carried out in scientific expeditions related to two research projects: “Santos Project – Santos Basin Environmental Characterization” and “Ambes Project – Espírito Santo Basin Assessment Project”, both coordinated by CENPES/PETROBRAS.

Adansonia (3) 45 (5): 73-81, DOI: 10.5252/adansonia2023v45a5ABSTRACTBased on several field surveys and on the study of original material, we have identified three new species of Orobanche L. s.s. (Orobanchaceae) new to the flora of Tunisia. Orobanche alba Willd., O. calendulae Pomel, and O. gracilis Sm. are reported as new for the country, and the occurrence of O. rapum-genistae Thuill. is confirmed. The lectotypification of O. rapum-genistae is here proposed with a specimen housed in Genève (G). The geographical distribution of the four taxa in Tunisia is given, and details of habitats and hosts are provided. Altogether, the genus Orobanche in Tunisia now includes 18 species; a dichotomous key is proposed to facilitate the identification of these taxa.

Three distinctive new species of the augochlorine bee genus Caenaugochlora Michener (Halictinae: Augochlorini) are described and figured as Caenaugochlora (Caenaugochlora) leoi Engel, new species, from Costa Rica, C. (C.) hestia Engel, new species, from Panama, and C. (C.) gonzalezi Engel, new species, from Colombia. The new species are distinguished from among their congeners and the diversity of Caenaugochlora tabulated. In addition, a third subgenus is established within the genus and a revised key to the subgenera proposed. Metaugochlora Engel, new subgenus, is based on two species described earlier from the Andes of Ecuador and that exhibit traits intermediate between Caenaugochlora s.str. and Ctenaugochlora Eickwort. It is possible that these groups would be more suitably treated as individual genera in the future and as our knowledge of the total diversity is refined.

Additionally, the genus Rhadinobracon is newly reported from the Oriental region with the description of two new species from India, R. levigatus Ranjith and R. nitidus Ranjith. A taxonomic key to separate Pseudorhadinobracon from Rhadinobracon is provided. The generic diagnosis of Rhadinobracon is revised along with a taxonomic key to the extant species.
