title: Revision of Iphione Kinberg, 1856 (Annelida, Aphroditiformia, Iphionidae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Salazar-Vallejo, Sergio I., Piotrowski, Christina N., Paulay, Gustav (2024): Revision of Iphione Kinberg, 1856 (Annelida, Aphroditiformia, Iphionidae). Zootaxa 5548 (1): 1-84, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5548.1.1, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5548.1.1AbstractThe only revision of Iphione was made by Pettibone in 1986, who recognized four species including two newly described in that work: I. muricata (Savigny in Lamarck, 1818) (type species), I. ovata Kinberg, 1856, I. treadwelli Pettibone, 1986, and I. henshawi Pettibone, 1986. She included I. fimbriata de Quatrefages, 1866, I. glabra de Quatrefages, 1866, and I. fustis Hoagland, 1920 within I. muricata, and I. spinosa Kinberg, 1856 and I. hirotai Izuka, 1912 in I. ovata. Three other species were later added to the genus: I. reticulata Amoureux, Rullier & Fishelson, 1978 from the Red Sea, I. coriolis Hanley & Burke, 1991 from the Coral Sea, and I. malifera Piotrowski, 2014 from the Philippines. A recent contribution showed that I. ovata ranges from the Red Sea to the Eastern Pacific and includes I. spinosa and I. reticulata. Our objectives were to revise the genus, evaluating all species and describing new ones by assessing the relevance of morphological features, assisted in part with COI sequence data. We studied the morphology of type and non-type material from 18 institutions and sequenced 52 specimens representing 11 species. We found that the size and position of eyes, the size relationships between cephalic appendages, and the number of rows of macrotubercles in elytra vary with body size. The most relevant diagnostic features for species delineation, confirmed by genetic species delineation, are the type and size relationships of macrotubercles, the presence of fimbriae, the development of the basal tubercle of dorsal cirrophores, the type of neurochaetae (falcate versus acicular), and their tips (uni- vs bidentate; or simple vs hooded). We clarified the type species of the genus as I. ovata, and recognized 17 species, nine previously described and eight new. Our main results include: 1) the restriction of I. muricata; 2) the reinstatement of I. fimbriata including I. fustis; 3) redescriptions of I. coriolis, I. henshawi and I. treadwelli; and 4) the description of eight new species: I. ankeri sp. nov. from Guam, I. corbari sp. nov. from the Saya de Malha Bank, I. harrisae sp. nov. from French Polynesia, I. hourdezi sp. nov. from New Caledonia, I. hyndmani sp. nov. from Hong Kong, I. readi sp. nov. from the Red Sea (including many earlier records of I. muricata), I. richeri sp. nov. from New Caledonia, and I. wilsoni sp. nov. from Australia. Descriptions the eight newly described species include only one based upon a single specimen. Keys are included for the genera in the family, and species of Iphione.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Haran, Julien, Benoit, Laure, Procheş, Şerban, Kergoat, Gael J. (2022): Ebenacobius Haran, a new southern African genus of flower weevils (Coleoptera: Curculioninae: Derelomini) associated with dicotyledonous plants. European Journal of Taxonomy 818 (1): 1-54, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2022.818.1771, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5852/ejt.2022.818.1771Abstract. A new genus of derelomine flower weevil (Curculionidae: Derelomini sensu Franz 2006), Ebenacobius Haran gen. nov., is described to accommodate a clade of species morphologically and phylogenetically distinct from other genera in this tribe. This genus can be diagnosed as follows: protibiae armed with an apical mucro, claws free, eye convexity exceeding the contour of head in dorsal view and forehead with a median furrow. In total, 19 species are recognized in this genus; 14 species are described as new (E. curvisetis Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. duplicatus Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. grobbelaarae Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. hessei Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. hippopotamorum Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. kuscheli Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. mulanjensis Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. oberprieleri Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. rectirostris Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. san Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. pedi Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. thoracicus Haran gen. et sp. nov.; E. tsonga Haran gen. et sp. nov. and E. xhosa Haran gen. et sp. nov.), five species of Derelomus Schoenherr (D. atratus Hesse; D. costalis Fåhraeus; D. incognitus Hesse; D. rhodesianus Hesse; D. turneri Marshall) are hereby transferred to Ebenacobius gen. nov. and one species name is placed in synonymy (Derelomus rugosicollis Hesse, 1929 = Derelomus costalis Fåhraeus, 1844 syn. nov.). Members of Ebenacobius gen. nov. seem to develop in inflorescences of dicot plants, with larval stages of at least two species recovered from the flowers of Euclea species (Ebenaceae). A key to the continental African genera of Derelomini and to species of Ebenacobius gen. nov. is provided.

Twenty-one species of bats were detected (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum, Rhinolophus hipposideros, Myotis bechsteinii, Myotis daubentonii, Myotis emarginatus, Myotis myotis, Myotis mystacinus, Myotis nattereri, Myotis oxygnathus, Pipistrellus kuhlii, Pipistrellus nathusii, Pipistrellus pipistrellus, Pipistrellus pygmaeus, Nyctalus leisleri, Hypsugo savii, Eptesicus nilssonii, Eptesicus serotinus, Barbastella barbastellus, Plecotus auritus, Plecotus macrobullaris, Tadarida teniotis). Species diversity is higher in this area than in other Alpine protected areas of a similar size.Records of E. nilssonii, P. pygmaeus and P. macrobullaris in the study area contribute to the knowledge of the distribution of these species in Piedmont and more generally in Italy. In particular, thanks to records of E. nilssonii, its geographic range could be extended to the western part of the Alps whereas it previously seemed to be only present in the Central-Eastern Alps.

title: Five new species and numerous locality records of Spirobolida millipedes from Madagascar (Diplopoda, Spirobolida, Pachybolidae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Wesener, Thomas (2024): Five new species and numerous locality records of Spirobolida millipedes from Madagascar (Diplopoda, Spirobolida, Pachybolidae). Zootaxa 5529 (3): 461-486, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5529.3.3, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5529.3.3AbstractBased mainly on the results of generalized American biodiversity inventory programmes, several samples of Malagasy Spirobolida millipedes became available to study. Based on this material, five new species of Spirobolida are described from Madagascar: four potential microendemic species, Aphistogoniulus amberivery sp. nov. from the Amberivery forest, A. manombo sp. nov., from the lowland rainforest of Manombo, Spiromimus endemicus sp. nov. from the Montagne des Français, and a species from the littoral forest of Tampolo, tentatively placed in the genus Eucarlia Brölemann, 1913, E. tampolo sp. nov. . A fifth species appears to be more widespread and is a morphologically unusual species of the genus Alluviobolus Wesener, 2009, A. omega sp. nov. . Aphistogoniulus manombo sp. nov. was previously described as a population of A. jeekeli Decker & Wesener, 2011. One of the most enigmatic Malagasy millipede species, Spirobolus olympiacus Karsch, 1881, is redescribed based on topotypic material as Colossobolus olympiacus (Karsch, 1881) new combination. Additional locality data is provided for 14 other Spirobolida species, of which 11 are listed on the IUCN Red List: Aphistogoniulus aridus Wesener, 2009, A. diabolicus Wesener, 2009, A. erythrocephalus (Pocock, 1893), A. hova (de Saussure & Zehntner, 1897), Colossobolus semicyclus Wesener, 2009, Spiromimus albipes Wesener & Enghoff, 2009, S. litoralis Wesener & Enghoff, 2009, S. simplex Wesener & Enghoff, 2009, S. triaureus Wesener & Enghoff, 2009, S. univirgatus deSaussure & Zehntner, 1901, Flagellobolus pauliani Wesener, 2009, Dactylobolus bivirgatus (Karsch, 1881), Madabolus maximus Wesener & Enghoff, 2008 and Hylekobolus rufus Wesener, 2009. Fourteen new genetic barcoding COI sequences are provided for nine species: Hylekobolus rufus, Colossobolus semicyclus, Aphistogoniulus amberivery sp. nov., A. aridus, A. diabolicus, A. erythrocephalus, A. hova, Spiromimus univirgatus and S. scapularis Wesener & Enghoff, 2009.
