title: SH0884752.10FU

description: UNITE provides a unified way for delimiting, identifying, communicating, and working with DNA-based Species Hypotheses (SH). All fungal ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are clustered to approximately the species level by applying a set of dynamic distance values (<0.5 - 3.0%). All species hypotheses are given a unique, stable name in the form of a DOI, and their taxonomic and ecological annotations are verified through distributed, web-based third-party annotation efforts. SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification as far as possible (phylum, class, order, etc.) by taking into account identifications for all sequences in the SH. An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These sequences are released (https://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and next-generation sequencing analysis pipelines. The system and the data are updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows.

title: <i>Marphysa cinari</i>, a new species of Eunicidae (Polychaeta) from the coasts of Turkey (eastern Mediterranean) and re-descriptions of <i>Marphysa kinbergi</i> McIntosh, 1910 and <i>Marphysa disjuncta</i> Hartman, 1961

description: The present study describes a new polychaete species belonging to the family Eunicidae, <i>Marphysa cinari</i> sp. nov., collected from the Sea of Marmara and the Aegean Sea (eastern Mediterranean), and re-describes <i>M</i><i>arphysa</i><i>disjuncta</i> Hartman, 1961 and <i>M</i><i>arphysa</i><i>kinbergi</i> McIntosh, 1910. The new species is mainly characterized by having unidentate subacicular hooks with a terminal hood and compound falciger chaetae on posterior parapodia. The shape of unidentate hooks of <i>M.</i><i>cinari</i> is a very important character for distinguishing this species from other species. Atlantic species <i>M.</i><i>kinbergi</i> and Pacific species <i>M.</i><i>disjuncta</i> are very close species and the present paper deals with the differences and similarities between them and the new taxon.http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:E8503032-81D3-4B4D-AAA0-9164E05E613F

title: A confuciusornithiform (Aves, Pygostylia)-like tarsometatarsus from the Early Cretaceous of Siberia and a discussion of the evolution of avian hind limb musculature

description: ABSTRACTWe describe a new isolated tarsometatarsus from the Early Cretaceous (Barremian-Aptian) Ilek Formation Shestakovo-3 locality in western Siberia. The new specimen represents a new taxon, <i>Evgenavis nobilis</i>, gen. et sp. nov., significantly increasing the Mesozoic avifauna from Russia. The specimen shares morphologies with a number of basal ornithothoracine taxa, but shows most similarity to the basal pygostylian <i>Confuciusornis sanctus</i>, the oldest known beaked bird and most common taxon from the Yixian Formation. <i>Evgenavis</i> may represent the first record of Confuciusornithiformes outside of the Jehol Group and its equivalent deposits. However, this is not supported by cladistic analysis, which weakly resolves the new species and <i>Mystiornis</i> both within the diverse Enantiornithes, indicating that additional material is required to assess the systematic position of <i>Evgenavis nobilis</i> (Aves incertae sedis). The three-dimensional preservation of the specimen allows for a partial reconstruction of the pedal musculature, revealing a primitive stage in the evolution of the neornithine condition.SUPPLEMENTAL DATA—Supplemental materials are available for this article for free at http://www.tandfonline.com/UJVP.

title: A new species of small-bodied sparassodont (Mammalia, Metatheria) from the middle Miocene locality of Quebrada Honda, Bolivia

description: ABSTRACTThe Sparassodonta (Mammalia, Metatheria) are a group of carnivorous mammals that dominated the macropredatory guild of South America during the Cenozoic. Here, we describe a new sparassodont based on a single specimen from the middle Miocene Quebrada Honda local fauna of southern Bolivia. This specimen (UF 27881) does not clearly correspond to any major sparassodont group (e.g., Hathliacynidae, Borhyaenidae, etc.) and represents a morphotype previously unknown among the Sparassodonta. UF 27881 is distinguished from other sparassodonts by its short, broad, borhyaenid-like rostrum and small size, among other features. However, we decline to coin a new name for UF 27881 due to the fragmentary nature of this specimen and the absence of most of its dentition. This specimen suggests that the appearance of the Sparassocynidae and several hypercarnivorous didelphid taxa (including <i>Thylophorops</i>, <i>Thylatheridium</i>, <i>Lutreolina</i>, and <i>Hyperdidelphys</i>) represent an evolutionary response to the decline in small, predatory sparassodont taxa during the late Cenozoic. This study documents new morphological diversity among the Sparassodonta and highlights the value of fossils from traditionally undersampled parts of South America.SUPPLEMENTAL DATA—Supplemental materials are available for this article for free at http://www.tandfonline.com/UJVP.

title: A new crocodyliform from the middle Cretaceous Galula Formation, southwestern Tanzania

description: ABSTRACTA new taxon of peirosaurid crocodyliform, <i>Rukwasuchus yajabalijekundu</i>, gen. et sp. nov., is described on the basis of a well-preserved partial skull from the middle Cretaceous Galula Formation exposed in southwestern Tanzania. The skull is distinguished from those of other crocodyliforms by the presence of a mediolaterally narrow, elongate, and septate internal narial fenestra (choana) located anteriorly on the pterygoid; a markedly depressed posterior border of the parietal, excluding the supraoccipital from the dorsal cranial table; and a ventrally directed descending process of the postorbital with a well-developed posteroventral process. The lateral surface of the braincase is exquisitely preserved and includes a well-developed laterosphenoid bridge dividing the foramina for the three primary branches of the trigeminal nerve. In overall morphology, the holotype skull and isolated teeth compare closely with <i>Hamadasuchus rebouli</i> from the middle Cretaceous Kem Kem Beds of Morocco. Reevaluation of the problematic putative African peirosaurid taxa <i>Stolokrosuchus lapparenti</i> and <i>Trematochampsa taqueti</i> reveal a number of derived cranial characters shared with Peirosauridae and <i>Araripesuchus</i>. A close relationship between <i>Rukwasuchus</i> and other African members of Peirosauridae is supported by a parsimony analysis of Crocodyliformes. As the only known sub-Saharan peirosaurid from Africa, <i>Rukwasuchus</i> represents the only link between middle Cretaceous southern vertebrate faunas and much more abundant, taxonomically diverse, and potentially penecontemporaneous faunas from northern Africa.SUPPLEMENTAL DATA—Supplemental materials are available for this article for free at http://www.tandfonline.com/UJVP.

title: A new capitosauroid temnospondyl from the Middle Triassic upper Fremouw Formation of Antarctica

description: ABSTRACTWe describe a new capitosauroid temnospondyl, <i>Antarctosuchus polyodon</i>, gen. et sp. nov., on the basis of a large and relatively complete skull from the upper Fremouw Formation of Antarctica. The new species is characterized by its possession of numerous, extremely small maxillary, palatine, and ectopterygoid teeth, a dental pattern that suggests specialization on small prey items, possibly invertebrates. The taxon is also characterized by a parachoanal tooth row that extends far posterior to the choana and occipital condyles set close to the midline. A combination of features, including a flat skull and low occiput together with well-developed sensory canals, suggests an aquatic lifestyle. We address the phylogenetic relationships of <i>Antarctosuchus</i> by adding it to a recent cladistic analysis of Capitosauria. The revised data set includes 27 taxa and 53 characters. The results of this analysis place <i>Antarctosuchus</i> within a clade of derived Triassic stereospondyls as the sister taxon to <i>Paracyclotosaurus crookshanki</i> from the Triassic Denwai Formation of India. To date, the upper Fremouw Formation has yielded two endemic temnospondyl species (viz., <i>Kryostega collinsoni</i> and <i>Antarctosuchus polyodon</i>), although indeterminate remains referred to benthosuchids and a cranial fragment assigned to <i>Parotosuchus</i> sp. have also been noted. In contrast to the broadly distributed therapsid taxa recognized from the Middle Triassic of Antarctica (e.g., <i>Cynognathus</i>, <i>Diademodon</i>), the temnospondyl fauna suggests more limited interchange with other coeval southern Pangean basins (e.g., Karoo, Luangwa, Ruhuhu, Waterberg).SUPPLEMENTAL DATA—Supplemental materials are available for this article for free at http://www.tandfonline.com/UJVP.
