title: Faunal composition, diversity, and distribution of ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) of Dhofar Governorate, Oman, with updated list of the Omani species and remarks on zoogeography

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Sharaf, Mostafa R., Wetterer, James K., Mohamed, Amr A., Aldawood, Abdulrahman S. (2022): Faunal composition, diversity, and distribution of ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) of Dhofar Governorate, Oman, with updated list of the Omani species and remarks on zoogeography. European Journal of Taxonomy 838 (1): 1-106, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2022.838.1925, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5852/ejt.2022.838.1925Abstract. The Sultanate of Oman is a country on the southeastern corner of the Arabian Peninsula, near the intersection of the Afrotropical, Palaearctic, and Indomalayan biogeographic realms. We surveyed ants at 18 sites between 16 and 22 November 2017 using beating sheets, hand picking, Malaise traps, sifting trays, sweeping net, and light traps on the coastal plains and monsoon slopes of Dhofar Governorate in southwest Oman, an area that is relatively verdant due to its exposure to monsoons between June and September. We collected 37 ant species, including 11 species recorded for the first time from Oman: Camponotus diplopunctatus Emery, 1915, Cardiocondyla minutior Forel, 1899, Cardiocondyla wroughtonii (Forel, 1890), Carebara arabica (Collingwood & van Harten, 2001), Leptanilla islamica Baroni Urbani, 1977, Monomorium clavicorne André, 1881, Monomorium floricola (Jerdon, 1851), Monomorium sahlbergi Emery, 1898, Strumigenys membranifera Emery, 1869, Anochetus sedilloti Emery, 1884, and Hypoponera ragusai (Emery, 1894). In total, 130 ant species are now known from Oman, including 53 from Dhofar. The known ants of Dhofar are primarily of Afrotropical origin (23 species, 43%), followed by Palearctic (20 species, 38%), and Indomalayan (4 species, 8%), and a single species from both the Malagasy and Neotropical Regions (1%). Five species (9%) are apparently endemic to Dhofar, Lepisiota dhofara Collingwood & Agosti, 1996, Lepisiota elbazi Sharaf & Hita Garcia, 2020, Crematogaster jacindae Sharaf & Hita Garcia, 2019, Meranoplus mosalahi Sharaf, 2019, and Nesomyrmex micheleae Sharaf, 2020. The zoogeography of the Omani ant fauna reflects a clear dominance of faunal elements from the Palearctic Region (68 species, 53%) followed by Afrotropical faunal elements (45 species, 34%), and five species that are broadly spread throughout both the Palearctic and the Afrotropical Regions (4%). There are nine species (6%) from the Indomalayan Region, two species from the Neotropical Region (2%), T. melanocephalum, C. emeryi, and a single species Ph. megacephala (1%) from the Malagasy Region. The number of endemic species (15 species, 12%) is relatively low compared to the large geographical area of Oman and the broad diversity of habitats that characterizes the country.

title: Introducing one new genus and two new species of Psathyrellaceae (Basidiomycota, Agaricales), with notes on Candolleomyces and Ephemerocybe

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Yang, Kun L., Lin, Jia Y., Li, Guang-Mei, Yang, Zhu L. (2025): Introducing one new genus and two new species of Psathyrellaceae (Basidiomycota, Agaricales), with notes on Candolleomyces and Ephemerocybe. Phytotaxa 702 (1): 1-28, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.702.1.1, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.702.1.1AbstractDuring an investigation on psathyrelloid fungi conducted from 2023 to 2024 in the Pearl River Delta in South China, 49 collections were gathered and studied through morphological observations and phylogenetic analyses. Among these collections, eight are identified as a new species of a new genus, namely Cantonopsathyra serendipita, characterized by terrestrial psathyrelloid basidiomata with a slightly rugose pileus, basidiospores with an irregularly wrinkled surface, and the rare presence of pleurocystidia and clamp connections; two are identified as a new species of Parasola, namely Pa. haizhuensis, characterized by lignicolous psathyrelloid basidiomata with an undulate pileus margin; while the remaining 39 could only be identified to the generic level of Candolleomyces. Species delimitation within Candolleomyces is found to be challenging, because the following problems often occur in the hypothetical species on our ITS phylogeny: (1) with an ITS sequence more than 99% similar to that of another species; (2) issued by a very short branch from the backbone; (3) unsupported by statistical values; (4) not a monophyletic group; and (5) with inaccurate sequences. A four-locus (ITS, nrLSU, tef-1α, and β-tub) phylogenetic analysis with limited samples of Candolleomyces appears to alleviate most of these problems by providing clearer partitions; however, four-locus data for previously proposed species remain largely unavailable for comparison. Based on the recent scale of species delimitation in Candolleomyces, more than ten new species of Candolleomyces appear to exist in our collections; however, due to the aforementioned issues, they are not formally proposed in this study. We recommend that new species of Candolleomyces proposed in the future should be provided with four-locus data of ITS, nrLSU, tef-1α, and β-tub. Supplementary sequencing for unprovided loci from type materials of previously proposed Candolleomyces species, particularly those proposed in recent years, is also highly encouraged. The recently proposed genus Tulosesus is illegitimate due to its circumscription including the type of an earlier legitimate genus, Ephemerocybe, and corresponding new combinations for transfer are made. Another genus, Lacrymaria Pat. 1887, is also illegitimate due to the homonymy with an earlier protist genus, Lacrymaria Ehrenberg 1830, but may be worth conserving; therefore, it is not treated here.

title: Annotated catalogue of Pakistani Acrididae (Orthoptera: Caelifera: Acridoidea)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Sultana, Riffat, Song, Hojun (2024): Annotated catalogue of Pakistani Acrididae (Orthoptera: Caelifera: Acridoidea). Zootaxa 5486 (1): 1-47, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5486.1.1, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5486.1.1AbstractAn annotated catalogue of Acrididae (Orthoptera: Caelifera) of Pakistan and its two adjacent territories is presented. A total of 169 species (including subspecies) belonged to 66 genera and 29 tribes with 14 subfamilies are reported from this region. Oedipodinae (56) was the most species-rich subfamily, followed by Gomphocerinae (30), Acridinae (15), Calliptaminae with (12), Eyprepocnemidinae (12) Oxyinae (9), Hemiacridinae (10), Cyrtacanthacridinae (8), Catantopinae (7), Tropidopolinae and Teratodinae each with (3), Spathosterninae (2) and Coptacrinae, and Melanoplinae are represented by a single species. Pakistan harbors about 51.76% of the Acridomorpha species recorded for subtropical Asia, including 13.61% of the Caelifera, are endemic. Since the first checklist was published in 1990, which listed 39 species, hundreds of additional specimens from the region have been collected and databased, new species have been described, and the taxonomic status of some species has changed. Due to a lack of long-term studies for most localities, several species that were new at the time of collection are meanwhile described from other areas of Southeastern Asia. Specimen data from insect collections, databases, scientific literature, and unpublished records were compared to the original checklist. Our list includes three endemic species, 11 rare species, seven first-time reports, including five expected and 18 dubious records. Additionally, there are a few species from protected areas, although no consistent analysis has yet been done on species restricted to protected areas in Pakistan. A detailed account of subfamilies, endemic and rare species, and those anticipated to occur in Pakistan is also presented. This checklist provides baseline data for researchers and the public, strengthening the pest framework for management.
