title: Description of a new species of Prostheceraeus Schmarda, 1859 and redescription of a poorly known species, Phrikoceros sagamianus (Kato, 1937) comb. n., with inference of their phylogenetic positions within Pseudocerotoidea (Platyhelminthes: Polycladida: Cotylea)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Tsuyuki, Aoi, Kohtsuka, Hisanori, Okuno, Junji (2025): Description of a new species of Prostheceraeus Schmarda, 1859 and redescription of a poorly known species, Phrikoceros sagamianus (Kato, 1937) comb. n., with inference of their phylogenetic positions within Pseudocerotoidea (Platyhelminthes: Polycladida: Cotylea). Journal of Natural History 59 (5 - 8): 303-330, DOI: 10.1080/00222933.2024.2439032, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.28302561ABSTRACTThe superfamily Pseudocerotoidea Lang encompasses Euryleptidae Stimpson, Pseudocerotidae Lang, and Stylostomidae Dittman. These families include conspicuous, flamboyant marine flatworms with a worldwide distribution. Here, we describe a new euryleptid species belonging to Prostheceraeus Schmarda, 1859, based on specimens collected by dredging at depths of 100–180 m off Misaki, Japan. The new species, Prostheceraeus fragum sp. n., is distinguished by its unique dorsal colouration in that oval red maculae are radially distributed along the translucent cream body periphery. Additionally, based on newly collected topotypic specimens, we transfer the poorly known pseudocerotid species Pseudoceros sagamianus Kato, 1937, to the genus Phrikoceros Newman and Cannon, 1996. These specimens possess (1) a pharynx with shallow, simple folds, (2) a deeply ruffled body margin, and (3) ear-like pseudotentacles with folds. Our molecular phylogeny, based on partial 18S and 28S rDNA sequences, yielded two key findings: (1) Pr. fragum sp. n. nested within the clade containing all other Prostheceraeus species, and (2) Phrikoceros sagamianus comb. n. formed a clade with all other Phrikoceros and Monobiceros species, distinct from the Pseudoceros clade. These results support the generic affiliations established through our morphological examinations. Furthermore, based on the resulting phylogenetic trees, we discuss the systematics of Euryleptidae in relation to Stylostomidae.

title: Morphology, taxonomy, distribution and relationships of the Afrotropical genus Isomerocera (Diptera: Stratiomyidae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Mason, F., Rozkošný, R. (2015): Morphology, taxonomy, distribution and relationships of the Afrotropical genus Isomerocera (Diptera: Stratiomyidae). African Invertebrates 56 (1): 75, DOI: 10.5733/afin.056.0108, URL: http://www.bioone.org/doi/10.5733/afin.056.0108ABSTRACTThe external morphology of Isomerocera Enderlein, an Afrotropical genus of Stratiomyidae, is discussed and illustrated with special regard to specific structures on the antenna, surface cover, and male and female terminalia. The species of Isomerocera are re-examined, based on 524 specimens (including four types) from 15 institutions, and two species were distinguished. The rare species I. heteraspis James, 1949 is characterised by some unusual autapomorphic characters. The common I. quadrilineata varies remarkably in colour characters, and the extent and density of hair patches. Isomerocera maculiventris (Macquart, 1850) is considered to be a junior synonym of I. quadrilineata (Fabricius, 1787) as is I. natalensis (Gerstaecker, 1857). Isomerocera quadrilineata var. melecta, as originally described by Speiser (1908), is identical with the nominal form. Generic characters are compared with the related genus Ptilocera from the Oriental and Australasian regions. Distribution data are summarised on the basis of the reliable published records and/or extensive material that we examined and collected in Angola, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo (Kinshasa), Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Liberia, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Republic of the Congo (Brazzaville), Sierra Leone, South Africa, Tanzania, Togo, Uganda and Zimbabwe. I. heteraspis is known only from two localities in Burundi and Uganda. The known distribution of I. quadrilineata essentially covers the vast area of savannahs and the zone of lowland tropical moist broadleaf forests in Africa.KEY WORDS: Sub-Saharan Africa, morphology, revision, variation, relationships, Isomerocera, comparison with Ptilocera.

title: Four new species of Cryptothecia (Arthoniaceae, Ascomycota) and Myriostigma (Arthoniaceae, Ascomycota) from China, based on morphology and molecular phylogeny

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Xue, Junxia, Yang, Zihao, Li, Ruotong, Zhang, Lulu (2025): Four new species of Cryptothecia (Arthoniaceae, Ascomycota) and Myriostigma (Arthoniaceae, Ascomycota) from China, based on morphology and molecular phylogeny. MycoKeys 114: 367-383, DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.114.139180AbstractIn this study, morphological and molecular phylogenetic approaches were used to investigate the species diversity of Cryptothecia and Myriostigma from southern China. We found four new species of Cryptothecia and Myriostigma (C. disjecta, C. sorediatum, M. melanovillosa and M. visus-blotch). Cryptothecia disjecta is distinguished by verrucose pseudisidia that are loosely scattered on the thallus, the upper parts of which are white or have darker dots. Cryptothecia sorediatum is distinguished by I – medulla and thalli having globose soralia. Myriostigma melanovillosa is distinguished by thalli with black or purple dots and hyaline to pale yellow ascospores (63–71 × 26–33 µm). Myriostigma visus-blotch is distinguished by hyaline ascospores and ascigerous areas, which have many irregular small patches that are scattered or clustered together radially elongated. In addition, a phylogenetic tree based on mtSSU, RPB 2 and nuLSU illustrates the phylogenetic placement of the proposed four new taxa. Detailed descriptions of the morphological, ecological and chemical characteristics and illustrations of each species are provided. Two updated keys for all known Chinese Cryptothecia and Myriostigma species are also provided.

From over 12,000 fishes examined, 33 named species of trypanorhynchs were recovered as well as three species of tentacularioids which are described but not named. Host-parasite and parasite-host lists are provided, including more than 100 new host records. Lacistorhynchoid and tentacularioid taxa predominated with fewer otobothrioid and gymnorhynchoids. Five species, Callitetrarhynchus gracilis, Floriceps minacanthus, Pseudotobothrium dipsacum, Pseudolacistorhynchus heroniensis and Ps. shipleyi, were particularly common and exhibited low host specificity. Limited data suggested a higher diversity of larval trypanorhynchs in larger piscivorous fish families. Several fish families surveyed extensively (Blenniidae, Chaetodontidae, Gobiidae, Kyphosidae and Scaridae) yielded no trypanorhynch larvae. The overall similarity between the fauna of the Great Barrier Reef and New Caledonia was 45%. Where available, information on the adult stages in elasmobranchs has been included.

title: Two remarkable new species of the Australian moth genus Gallaba Walker (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae, Notodontinae) from the highlands of Tasmania

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article MCQUILLAN, PETER B., CHEN, JINGYI, FOUNTAIN-JONES, NICHOLAS M. (2024): Two remarkable new species of the Australian moth genus Gallaba Walker (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae, Notodontinae) from the highlands of Tasmania. Zootaxa 5543 (3): 368-382, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5543.3.4, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5543.3.4AbstractThe distinctive notodontine moth genus Gallaba Walker, 1865 is confined to eastern and southern Australia where multiple species inhabit forests, woodlands and heathlands from sea level to montane forests of at least 1650m. The continental island of Tasmania supports four Gallaba species (including these two new endemics) at the current global southern limit of Notodontidae. Two distinctive new species are described from montane and subalpine Tasmania: Gallaba constellata sp. nov. and Gallaba kirkpatricki sp. nov. Both exhibit distinctive phenotypes including extraordinarily long rami in the male antennae, but their phylogenetic relationships to the rest of the genus must await a full revision of Gallaba and allied genera. We find no evidence for earlier claims that G. duplicata Walker, 1865 occurs in Tasmania. It was likely confused with the phenotypically similar Hobartina amblyiodes (Turner, 1931) and we remove it from the Tasmanian checklist. Biological information about Gallaba is very limited, but we have discovered that the larva of Gallaba kirkpatricki sp. nov. feeds on the pandaniform tall shrub Richea pandanifolia (Ericaceae: Epacridoideae). The Ericaceae is a novel hostplant family for Australian Notodontinae, although it is sparingly used by notodontines in tropical Asia. The mesic habitat and foodplants of these species are vulnerable to fire risk in montane areas which has been increasing rapidly in frequency and extent in recent years due to drying of the environment caused by climate change.

title: Two new species of mealybugs (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Pseudococcidae) from Japan

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Tanaka, Hirotaka, Sasaki, Daisuke, Choi, Jinyeong, Husnik, Filip, Kamitani, Satoshi (2022): Two new species of mealybugs (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Pseudococcidae) from Japan. Zootaxa 5168 (3): 306-318, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5168.3.3AbstractTwo new mealybug species (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Pseudococcidae), namely, Dysmicoccus kunaw Tanaka sp. nov. and Phenacoccus miruku Tanaka & Choi sp. nov., collected in Japan, are described based on the morphological characteristics of the adult females. Dysmicoccus kunaw resembles D. trispinosus (Hall 1923) and D. furcillosus Williams 2004, but differs from them in having two conical cerarian setae in each anal lobe cerarius, a considerable number of dorsal multilocular pores on the abdominal segments, and two types of oral collar tubular ducts on the venter. Phenacoccus miruku is similar to P. sisymbriifolium Granara de Willink 2007 and P. similis Granara de Willink 1983, but differs by lacking quinqelocular pores anterior to the mouthparts and translucent pores on the hind tibiae, and in the shape of the circulus. A molecular phylogenetic analysis was used to investigate the phylogenetic placements of the two new species. Keys to the species of Dysmicoccus Ferris and Phenacoccus Cockerell found in Japan are provided.
