title: Bazzania calypogeoides (Marchantiophyta) - a peculiar new taxon from Eastern Hengduan (China)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Bakalin, Vadim, Maltseva, Yulia, Klimova, Ksenia, Ma, Wen Zhang (2024): Bazzania calypogeoides (Marchantiophyta) - a peculiar new taxon from Eastern Hengduan (China). Phytotaxa 645 (3): 214-231, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.645.3.2, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.645.3.2AbstractBazzania calypogeoides is described from several localities on the eastern edge of the Hengduan mountain system in Sino-Himalaya. The species is characterized by shallowly emarginate underleaves, strongly convex leaves, curved to the ventral side and with a very short sinus resulting in two unequal lobes. The position of the species was assessed using morphological and molecular genetic analyses. A morphologically similar species, B. wooroonooran, is known from Australasia and eastern Melanesia, but differs in several features. A description of the species, illustrations and discussions on the ecology and geography of the new taxon are provided.

title: Austinixa bragantina Coelho, 2005: a junior synonym of A. aidae (Righi, 1967) (Brachyura: Pinnotheridae) supported by integrative morphological and molecular data

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Almeida, Alexandre O., Araújo-Silva, Catarina L., Lucatelli, Debora, Bezerra, Luis Ernesto A., Balbino, Felipe C., Tamburus, Ana F., Mantelatto, Fernando L. (2023): Austinixa bragantina Coelho, 2005: a junior synonym of A. aidae (Righi, 1967) (Brachyura: Pinnotheridae) supported by integrative morphological and molecular data. Zootaxa 5227 (2): 229-250, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5227.2.4AbstractAustinixa bragantina Coelho, 2005, described from Ilha Canela, Bragança, state of Pará, Brazil, is established as a junior synonym of A. aidae (Righi, 1967) based on morphological (gross morphology and scanning electron microscopy) and molecular (16S rRNA mitochondrial marker) evidence. The phylogenetic tree was obtained through the Maximum Likelihood method aiming to contextualize A. bragantina among related species. We provide a redescription, an updated synonymy, and remarks on the intra-specific morphological variability of A. aidae to clarify some taxonomic inconsistencies previously reported. Austinixa hardyi Heard & Manning, 1997, a species of uncertain taxonomic status, was confirmed genetically to also be a synonym of A. aidae.

title: Phylogeny and taxonomic revision of Hygrophorus robustus (Hygrophoraceae, Agaricales) from southwestern China

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Huang, Hong-Yan, Wang, Ran, Zhang, Wen-Hao, Yu, Fu-Qiang, Tang, Li-Ping (2024): Phylogeny and taxonomic revision of Hygrophorus robustus (Hygrophoraceae, Agaricales) from southwestern China. Phytotaxa 664 (3): 181-190, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.664.3.3, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.664.3.3AbstractHygrophorus robustus was originally described from Yunnan province, China. This taxon is characterized by its robust basidiomata, salmon buff lamellae, tapered toward the base of the stipe, the odor of Tricholoma matsutake, the absence of cystidia and clamp connections, and a symbiotic association with Castanopsis delavayi. In this study, the phylogenetic position of this taxon is inferred by molecular phylogenetic analysis based on DNA sequences of internal transcribed spacer (ITS). The ITS result showed that it is nested within the genus Tricholoma and is affiliated with the North American T. grave. The morphological anatomy of this species also shows that its characteristics fit the concept of the genus Tricholoma, such as regular lamellar trama. Thus, H. robustus should be taxonomically transferred to Tricholoma, and the name of the new combination should be T. robustum. However, this name was used in the genus as Tricholoma robustum (Alb. & Schwein.) Ricken. Thus, we propose a new name T. aurantiophyllum for H. robustus.

title: Erstnachweis von Calophya rhois (Hemiptera, Psylloidea) aus der Schweiz - ein Blattfloh vom Perückenstrauch Cotinus coggygria (Sapindales, Anacardiaceae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Burckhardt, Daniel (2019): Erstnachweis von Calophya rhois (Hemiptera, Psylloidea) aus der Schweiz - ein Blattfloh vom Perückenstrauch Cotinus coggygria (Sapindales, Anacardiaceae). Entomo Helvetica 12: 43-48, DOI: 10.5169/seals-985859Abstract: First record of Calophya rhois (Hemiptera, Psylloidea) from Switzerland – a psyllid associated with smoke bush Cotinus coggygria (Sapindales, Anacardiaceae). − Calophya rhois is a psyllid associated with smoke bush and is widely distributed in Southern Europe occurring also in the Caucasus and China. In Central Europe, where the host is not native but is often planted in parks and gardens, the psyllid can also be found occasionally. Here C. rhois is reported for the first time from Switzerland based on collections made in Basel in 2018. Evidence is discussed that this constitutes a recent introduction, along with the host. It seems less likely that the species was previously overlooked or is expanding its distributional range favoured by climate warming.Zusammenfassung: Calophya rhois ist eine Blattfloh-Art, die sich auf dem Perückenstrauch entwickelt. Sie ist in Südeuropa weit verbreitet und kommt auch im Kaukasus und in China vor. In Mitteleuropa, wo der Wirt nicht heimisch ist, sondern häufig in Parks und Gärten angepflanzt ist, kann dieser Blattfloh gelegentlich auch gefunden werden. Hier wird C. rhois zum ersten Mal aus der Schweiz gemeldet, basierend auf Material, das 2018 in Basel gesammelt wurde. Umstände werden diskutiert, die darauf hindeuten, dass es sich hier um eine relativ neue Einschleppung zusammen mit der Wirtspflanze handelt. Es scheint weniger wahrscheinlich, dass die Art bisher übersehen wurde oder durch die Klimaerwärmung begünstigt ihr Verbreitungsgebiet ausdehnen konnte.

title: The phylogenetic affinities of Pellaea connectens, a rare endemic Chinese fern

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Wang, Wan, Yang, Wenli, Mao, Xingxing, Zhao, Ranran, Dou, Ping, Zhang, Gangmin (2015): The phylogenetic affinities of Pellaea connectens, a rare endemic Chinese fern. Phytotaxa 220 (1): 30-42, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.220.1.2, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.220.1.2AbstractUsing DNA sequences from five chloroplast makers (rbcL / trnL–trnF / rps4 / rps4–trnS / trnG–trnR), we addressed the phylogenetic affinities of Pellaea connectens, a rare endemic Chinese cheilanthoid fern belonging to Pteridaceae. Our results confirmed that the species was a member of the newly segregated genus Argyrochosma, which was formerly considered as native to America, showing that the treatment of Pellaea connectens by Ching nor Tryon & Lugardon was supported. Moreover, its morphology, distribution, ecology, co-existing species, as well voucher specimens were also presented in this paper.

title: A new endemic species of Macropsychanthus (Leguminosae: Papilionoideae) from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Fonseca-Cortés, Andrés, Cardoso, Domingos Benício Oliveira Silva, Snak, Cristiane, Queiroz, Luciano Paganucci De (2023): A new endemic species of Macropsychanthus (Leguminosae: Papilionoideae) from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Phytotaxa 620 (3): 225-234, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.620.3.3, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.620.3.3AbstractThe Brazilian Atlantic Forest is a world’s remarkable biodiversity hotspot, seriously endangered by urbanization, industrialization, and agricultural expansion. More than a thousand species of legumes (Leguminosae) occur in the Atlantic Forest, with a record of 443 endemic species. Here, we describe Macropsychanthus ruschii, a new species narrowly endemic from a pristine Atlantic Forest area in the Espírito Santo state, eastern Brazil. This species is uniquely characterized by its inflorescences up to 15 cm and uncommon pink petals. A molecular phylogenetic analysis of nuclear ribosomal (ETS and ITS) and plastid (trnK/matK) DNA sequence data strongly resolves the new species within a clade that exclusively diversified in the Atlantic Forest. This result reinforces the importance of focusing more efforts to conserve and promote biodiversity research in this taxonomically and evolutionarily rich Brazilian phytogeographic domain.

Se describe la porción proximal de una ulna izquierda de un pterosaurio. El ejemplar procede de la Formación Candeleros (Cenomaniano), Grupo Neuquén, en Cabo Alarcón, provincia de Neuquén, Argentina. El análisis de este nuevo ejemplar permite la reinterpretación de una tibia de pterosaurio previamente descrita, hallada en la localidad de Los Catutos, Neuquén (MOZ 2280 P) como un proximal de ulna. El nuevo material pertenece a un pterosaurio de tamaño medio, considerablemente más grande que los pterosaurios previamente registrados de esta unidad geológica. El análisis de la correlación entre la longitud de la ulna-longitud del pié en pterosaurios pterodactyloideos bien conocidos muestra que la nueva ulna se corresponde bien con el tamaño inferido para el productor de Pteraichnus isp. registrado en la misma formación.Palabras clave.

title: A subspecies of marbled newt (Triturus marmoratus) in the Iberian Peninsula newly resolved from congruent nuclear and mitochondrial DNA data

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Arntzen, Jan W. (2024): A subspecies of marbled newt (Triturus marmoratus) in the Iberian Peninsula newly resolved from congruent nuclear and mitochondrial DNA data. Contributions to Zoology 93: 252-267, DOI: 10.1163/18759866-BJA10060, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/18759866-bja10060AbstractThe herpetofauna of the Iberian Peninsula is relatively well-researched, yet detailed studies, at least in part relying on molecular genetic data, continue to reveal taxa new to science, mostly species and subspecies. Newts of the genus Triturus are one such group with undiscovered yet taxonomically relevant variation, as shown by the recent description of new (sub)species of pygmy newts (T. pygmaeus, T. rudolfi). The marbled newt, Triturus marmoratus, shows an equally deep and geographically coherent spatial-genetic diversification. It is here shown that a northern and a southern group are characterized by different mitochondrial DNA profiles and are also differentiated in morphometry and colouration pattern. With no firm evidence for selection against intermediate genotypes, the southern group is described at the subspecies level, as T. marmoratus harmannis ssp. nov. The subspecies’ contact zone is situated at ca. 41.5 northern latitude and stretches from the Atlantic coast near Porto, Portugal to the northeast of Madrid, Spain.

title: Validation of Icelus crassus Andriashev (Cottiformes: Cottidae), described from the Sea of Okhotsk

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Chernova, Natalia, Kai, Yoshiaki, Zorina, Anna (2025): Validation of Icelus crassus Andriashev (Cottiformes: Cottidae), described from the Sea of Okhotsk.

Although both species belong to the “ I. bicornis ” (sensu Nelson 1984) species group, having suborbital spines and additional rows of scales on the body absent (excluding dorsal-row and lateral-line scales), and fine marginal serrations on the dorsal-row scales rather than sharp single spines, I. crassus differs from the type series of I. ochotensis in the absence of parietal spines (vs. present), supraorbital cirri present as expanding, distally branched laminae (vs. simple barbels), dorsal scale row incomplete anteriorly (vs. complete, reaching head); and lateral-line scales serrated below each sensory canal pore (vs. embedded in skin below each pore, usually with no more than 1–2 spinules). Meristic characters of I. crassus, similar to other species of the “ I. bicornis ” group, include 38–41 vertebrae, IX 18–20 dorsal-fin rays, 15 or 16 anal-fin rays, 17–19 pectoral-fin rays, 41–43 lateral-line scales, 25–31 dorsal-line scales, and 10–17 axillary scales. The urogenital papilla is cylindrical (not spatulate), with a short, claw-like terminal appendage. The holotype is found in ZIN collection, No. 21900, adult male TL 106 mm. Icelus crassus has been recorded in the Sea of Okhotsk and Sea of Japan (Strait of Tartary) 97–327 m depth; near bottom, water temperatures range from -0.7°C to 2.15°C.

title: Mastiglanis durantoni from French Guyana, a second species in the genus (Siluriformes: Heptapteridae), with a CT scan survey of phylogenetically-relevant characters

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Pinna, Mário De, Keith, Philippe (2019): Mastiglanis durantoni from French Guyana, a second species in the genus (Siluriformes: Heptapteridae), with a CT scan survey of phylogenetically-relevant characters. Cybium 43 (2): 125-135, DOI: 10.26028/cybium/2019-423-002, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.26028/cybium/2019-423-002Abstract. – A new species of the heptapterid genus Mastiglanis, M. durantoni, is described from three adjacent localities in the upper reaches of the Maroni River in French Guyana. The new species is distinguished from the only other known species in the genus, M. asopos, by several qualitative and quantitative characteristics, such as the slender caudal peduncle (caudal peduncle depth 4.3-5.3% of SL vs. 5.6-6.3%); the upper jaw protruding markedly beyond lower, resulting in long snout (36.5-42.0% of HL vs. 23.4-33.6%); the head depressed (head depth 34.0-44.4% of HL vs. 44.4-53.0%); the procurrent caudal fin rays 12 dorsally and ventrally (vs. 14-17); the dorsal margin of adipose fin concave (vs. variably convex, straight or gently sinusoidal); the occipital process deeply notched, distally V-shaped (vs. distal margin of occipital process variably-shaped, with notch, when present, not deep and forming an obtuse angle); the mesethmoid cornu widest at its midlength (vs. gradually narrower from base to tip). Characters of taxonomic and phylogenetic relevance are observed and illustrated with CT-scan imaging technique. The narrowly endemic and outlying geographical distribution of the new species contrasts with the extremely wide range of M. asopos and suggests a history of peripheral isolation and differentiation. In conformity with that interpretation, the new species has some autapomorphic specializations, while none is currently known for M. asopos.
