ZooKeys 1255: 1-25, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1255.164170AbstractTwo new subterranean species of the genus Acherontiella Absolon, 1913 from Iran are described, illustrated, and morphologically differentiated from similar species. Acherontiella nezamdoosti sp. nov. has larger distribution range covering caves of North Khorasan, Razavi Khorasan, and Tehran provinces, while A. palaciosi sp. nov. is probably restricted to Moghan Cave in Razavi Khorasan province. Both new species are characterized by absence of eyes, PAO, empodium, furca, and retinaculum. Acherontiella nezamdoosti sp. nov. is distinguished from other species by having two small anal spines, Th II – III with setae m 1, m 4, and m 5, and four thickened anterior setae on the labrum. Acherontiella palaciosi sp. nov. is characterized by bearing two medial setae in the anterior row of the labrum thickened into spines and apically dentate, and by the absence of setae m 3 on Th I and p 3 on Th II – III. An updated key and a table summarizing diagnostic characters of world species of the genus Acherontiella are provided.

Three species, Macrogyrodactylus clarii Gussev, 1961; M. congolensis (Prudhoe, 1957) and M. karibae Douëllou et Chishawa, 1995, are primarily known to parasitise the African sharptooth catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell) in various African countries. From November 2017 to September 2019, a total of 184 individuals of C. gariepinus were collected from selected localities in southern Africa and their skin, fins and gills were surveyed for monogeneans. Three species of Macrogyrodactylus (M. clarii, M. congolensis and M. karibae) were found parasitising C. gariepinus from five localities in South Africa and Zambia. Overall prevalence was 50% to 100% with intensities of up to 109 parasites per host individual. New locality records in southern Africa, morphological observations and additional molecular data on the complete Internal Transcriber Spacer (ITS-1-5.8S-ITS-2) regions of the rDNA gene for the three gyrodactylid species are presented in this study.

Contributions to Zoology 90 (1): 1-20, DOI: 10.1163/18759866-BJA10007, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/18759866-bja10007AbstractAnthropogenic environmental change is leading to changes in distribution for many organisms. While this is frequently discussed for prominent organisms of high conservation value, the same is true for the many cryptic species that rarely figure in debates on the human impact. One such cryptic taxon is the European Ptomaphagus sericatus (Chaudoir, 1845) and related forms. During a citizen science expedition in the Vondelpark, Amsterdam, the Netherlands, we obtained two forms of this species complex. We placed the examination of these specimens in the context of a re-analysis of the species group, and, using DNA barcoding and genital study on material collected thoughout Europe, found that the P. sericatus species complex consists of three distinct, partly sympatric species, one of which was previously undescribed. On the basis of collection data, at least two species, P. medius and P. thebeatles sp. n., show signs of having recently undergone (possibly anthropogenic) range changes, with P. medius even reaching North America. We describe P. thebeatles sp. n.; we raise two subspecies, viz. P.sericatus sericatus (Chaudoir, 1854) and P. sericatus medius (Rey, 1889) to the level of species, and designate a neotype for the former; we identify P. dacicus Jeannel, 1934 and P. pyrenaeus Jeannel, 1934 as junior synonyms of P. sericatus, and P. compressitarsus (Rey, 1889) as a junior synonym of P. subvillosus Goeze, 1777; we identify P. septentrionalis Jeannel, 1934 and P. miser (Rey, 1889) as junior synonyms of P. medius; we designate lectotypes for P. medius and P. miser.
