Ross, Bertoncini, Athila, Garcia, Lucas Canes, Silva, Jodir Pereira Da, Sampaio, Claudio L. S. (2023): Generic reassignment of Centropristis fuscula Poey, 1861 (Teleostei: Serranidae), with re-description of the species and comments on its geographical range and sexual system. Zootaxa 5346 (1): 51-73, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5346.1.3, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5346.1.3AbstractCentropristes fusculus Poey, 1861 historically has variously and somewhat perplexingly been assigned to Centropristis Cuvier, 1829, Prionodes Jenyns, 1840, and Serranus Cuvier, 1816. Here, we provide evidence from comparisons of morphology, ecology, and sexual systems for its inclusion in Serranus and redescribe the species based on the holotype and 60 specimens from Brazil, the Caribbean, the United States, and Uruguay. Serranus fusculus is a simultaneous hermaphrodite, a sexual system that is relevant to its generic placement. The inclusion of Serranus fusculus in the genus Serranus increases to 33 the number of currently valid Serranus species, of which two are found in the Western Indian Ocean, six in the eastern Pacific and 25 in the Atlantic Ocean (15 restricted to the western Atlantic and 10 to the eastern and Central Atlantic). An identification key to western Atlantic species of the genus is provided.

title: The first recognition of the enigmatic fossil shark genus Megalolamna (Lamniformes, Otodontidae) from the lower Miocene of Europe and M. serotinus (Probst, 1879) as the newly designated type species for the genus

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Pollerspöck, Jürgen, Shimada, Kenshu (2024): The first recognition of the enigmatic fossil shark genus Megalolamna (Lamniformes, Otodontidae) from the lower Miocene of Europe and M. serotinus (Probst, 1879) as the newly designated type species for the genus. Zitteliana 98: 1-9, DOI: 10.3897/zitteliana.98.e131387AbstractMegalolamna is an elusive extinct shark genus (Lamniformes: Otodontidae) previously known from the upper Oligocene – Miocene of the USA, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Japan. Here, we document the first occurrence of Megalolamna from Miocene marine deposits in Europe, specifically from Austria, France, Germany, and Italy. Although the taxon is regarded as a monospecific genus, this study reveals that the species name serotinus has the priority over any previously used names for the taxon and thus redescribes it as Megalolamna serotinus (Probst), comb. nov. This study is also significant because it demonstrates the existence of Megalolamna in the Mediterranean and Paratethys seas during the Miocene. Megalolamna inhabited the tropical – mid-latitudinal zones with spotty but wide geographic distribution.

title: Caracterización de Frankliniella simplex Priesner 1924 (Thysanoptera: Thripidae): Un problema con los caracteres de los tipos.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Retana-Salazar, Axel P. (2014): Caracterización de Frankliniella simplex Priesner 1924 (Thysanoptera: Thripidae): Un problema con los caracteres de los tipos. Arquivos Entomolóxicos 10: 3-10, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.11372591Resumen: Se presenta la revisión del estatus taxonómico de la especie Frankliniella simplex Priesner 1924. De la revisión de literatura acerca de esta especie se evidencia que hay inconsistencias en los caracteres diagnósticos. El estudio de la descripción original muestra que no hay total concordancia con los caracteres utilizados en las claves para la identificación de las especies, lo que puede causar serios problemas de identificación del material depositado en los museos. La revisión del material tipo evidencia que hay una mezcla de diferentes morfologías que posiblemente ha sido la razón de la confusión en los caracteres presentes en las claves de identificación. Esta revisión pretende evidenciar el problema y aclarar cuáles son los caracteres de los tipos que deben considerarse como válidos en la definición de esta especie después de 89 años de haber sido descrita.Palabras clave: Frankliniella simplex, Thysanoptera, Thripidae, caracteres, diagnosis, nuevo material, México.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Mauriès, Jean-Paul, Geoffroy, Jean-Jacques (2000): Nouvelle description, classification, répartition et variations morphologiques interpopulations d’un diplopode troglobie du sud-est du Brésil (Diplopoda, Polydesmida, Chelodesmidae). Zoosystema 22 (1): 153-168, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.5399263ABSTRACTRedescription, classification, distribution and morphological variations between populations of a cave-dwelling millipede from south-east Brazil (Diplopoda, Polydesmida, Chelodesmidae).The cave-dwelling polydesmid millipede Alocodesmus yporangae Schubart, 1946, from southeastern Brazil, is redescribed and its systematic position is discussed. A new monospecific genus Leodesmus Mauriès & Geoffroy is created [type species: Alocodesmus yporangae Schubart, 1946; Leodesmus yporangae n. comb.] and placed in the tribe Cornalatini (Chelodesmidae, Chelodesminae). Leodesmus can be distinguished from the other Cornalatini by a no monoliform habitus, and from the genus Obiricodesmus by the slide-shaped prefemoral process of the gonopods. Three morphological “forms” are formally recognized: “type”, “acutus” and “alambari”. Their geographical distributions are discussed according to a hypothesis of allopatric and peripatric processes of speciation.

title: Skeleton of Early Miocene Bathyergoides neotertiarius Stromer, 1923 (Rodentia, Mammalia) from Namibia: behavioural implication

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Costa, Laura Bento Da, Senut, Brigitte (2022): Skeleton of Early Miocene Bathyergoides neotertiarius Stromer, 1923 (Rodentia, Mammalia) from Namibia: behavioural implication. Geodiversitas 44 (10): 291-322, DOI: 10.5252/geodiversitas2022v44a10, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5252/geodiversitas2022v44a10ABSTRACTEssentially known from dental remains, the species Bathyergoides neotertiarius Stromer, 1923 (Bathyergidae, Rodentia) is widely recorded in Lower Miocene sites, notably in the localities of Elisabethfeld, Grillental and Langental (Namib Desert, Namibia). On the basis of dental morphology, this species belongs to the Bathyergidae, an extant family represented by the mole rats, which developed a fossorial, predominantly subterranean lifestyle. The discovery of a skeleton in connexion at the locality of GT Carrière (Grillental) permits description for the first time of the postcranials of Bathyergoides neotertiarius. Comparisons with extant rodent species suggest a similar behaviour to the Miocene ones, showing burrowing adaptations using principally the skull/mandible/incisor complex, evidenced by an accentuated robustness of these structures. The results of the postcranial analysis confirm the previous hypothesis, showing a robust anterior limb, probably used for the extraction of material during digging. However, a difference is seen in the robustness of the hind limb, being gracile in GT 50’06, but showing a prominent m. popliteus process, which suggests an important stabilization of the knee joint and an internal rotation of the lower limb allowing postural control in the burrows. The presence of a long tail distinguishes the Lower Miocene species from the extant subterranean rodents which exhibit short tails and recalls the morphology seen in modern semi-fossorial scratch-diggers such as Cricetomys gambianus Waterhouse, 1840. Thus, the specimen GT 50’06 shows clear fossorial adaptations, with a morphology close to the chisel-tooth diggers but exhibiting characteristics useful for a scratch-digging strategy.MOTS CLÉSRodentia,Bathyergidae,Namibie,Grillental,Miocène inférieur,morphologie dentaire,morphologiepostcrânienne,fouissage.

title: PareUZebyella sediminis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel marine bacterium in the family FlaVObaCTeriaCeae, isolated from a tidal flat sediment

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Huang, Zhaobin, Wei, Xiaomei, Lai, Qiliang, Chen, Shiyong, Yuan, Jianjun (2021): PareUZebyella sediminis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel marine bacterium in the family FlaVObaCTeriaCeae, isolated from a tidal flat sediment. International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (004606) 71 (1): 1-9, DOI: 10.1099/ijsem.0.004606, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.004606AbstractTwo marine bacterial strains, designated S2-4-21 T and MT2-5-19, were isolated from two tidal flat sediments of cordgrass Spartina alterniflora and adjacent oyster culture field in Quanzhou bay, China, respectively. Both strains were Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, non-flagellated, non-motile, aerobic, had NaCl requirements, and contained carotenoid and flexirubin pigments. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (99.8%), average nucleotide identity value (99.4%) and average amino acid identity (99.3%) between strain S2-4-21 T and strain MT2-5-19 strongly supported that they belonged to a single species. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain S2-4-21 T and strain MT2-5-19 formed a monophyletic branch affiliated to the family Flavobacteriaceae, sharing similarities of 94.6% with Euzebyella marina CY 01 T and E. saccharophila 7SM30 T, and of 94.1 and 92.8% with E. algicola MEBiC 12267 T and Pseudozobellia thermophile DSM 19858 T, respectively. Phylogenomic analysis based on the whole genome sequences supported that the two strains formed a distinct monophyletic clade within Flavobacteriaceae members, which was phylogenetically different from the clades of Euzebyella and Pseudozobellia. The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone MK-6. The major fatty acids (&gt;10%) consisted of C 15: 0 iso, C 16: 0, summed feature 9 (C 17: 1 iso ω 9 c /C 16: 0 10-methyl) and C 17: 0 iso 3-OH. The polar lipid profiles of strain S2-4-21 T and strain MT2-5-19 are identical, including phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified aminolipids, and four unidentified lipids. The genomic size was 4.9–5.0 Mb with genomic DNA G+C content of 41.5 mol%. Based on the above characteristics, strains S2-4-21 T and MT2-5-19 represented a novel species of a novel genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae. Thus, Pareuzebyella sediminis gen. nov. sp. nov. is proposed with type strain S2-4-21 T (= MCCC 1 K03818 T = KCTC 72152 T), and another strain MT2-5-19 (= KCTC 72539= MCCC 1 K03874).

title: A 100 - million-year-old ensiferan with unusual mouthparts and comments on the evolution of raptorial appendages within Polyneoptera

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Haug, Joachim T., Hörnig, Marie K., Kiesmüller, Christine, Pazinato, Paula G., Baranov, Viktor, Haug, Carolin (2022): A 100 - million-year-old ensiferan with unusual mouthparts and comments on the evolution of raptorial appendages within Polyneoptera. Geodiversitas 44 (4): 57-73, DOI: 10.5252/geodiversitas2022v44a4ABSTRACTMyanmar amber is known to provide fossils of the group Insecta with surprising morphologies. Here we present fossils of the new species Gryllobencain patrickmuelleri n. gen., n. sp. from Myanmar amber that possess an overall “orthopteroid” morphology, hence resemble crickets. Unlike in most crickets, thorax appendages 1 and 2 (“legs”) are large and prominent, even in comparison to thorax appendage 3. Furthermore, thorax appendages 1 and 2 are able to fold against themselves and are armed with prominent spine-like setae, indicating that these legs were originally used for grasping prey. Most prominent is a large spine on the tibia of both appendages distantly reminding of the tibial spur or claw of praying mantises. Comparable prey-catching apparatuses have evolved repeatedly in the group Polyneoptera: gladiators (Mantophasmatodea), three ingroups of bush-crickets (Saginae, Austrosaginae, Listroscelidinae) as well as one species of fossil mantises (Santanmantis axelrodi Grimaldi, 2003) appear to have used thorax appendages 1 and 2 for prey catching. The new fossils do not seem to be closely related to any of these groups. They differ especially by prominent cerci equipped with numerous, probably mechano-sensorial setae. In the other five groups, the cerci are significantly smaller, often indistinct. The fossils furthermore have prominent maxillae with sickle-shaped proximal parts and well-armed large palps, indicating that the maxillae played an important role in processing the prey. While the thorax appendages hence represent a case of clear convergent evolution, the uniqueness of the feeding apparatus leads us to recognise the fossils as a highly specialised new species.

Commensalism associated with bivalves has been relatively rare in the genus Leucothoe and the present new species represents the sixth species of bivalve-associated commensal in the genus. According to the molecular phylogenetic analyses based on the partial sequence of the 18S gene, this new species was recovered as sister to Leucothoe akaisen. There were ~1.5% and ~9.4% differences between these two species in the 18S and COI sequences, respectively, and seven species-specific indels in the former. Morphologically, the new species can be distinguished from Le. akaisen by the distally dentate lateral surface of male gnathopod 2 carpus and straight or weakly concave, oblique posterodistal margin of pereopods 6, 7 bases.
