title: A new species of the genus Dolichoderus Lund, 1831 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) from a Late Eocene European amber

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Dubovikoff, D. A., Zharkov, D. M. (2022): A new species of the genus Dolichoderus Lund, 1831 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) from a Late Eocene European amber. Caucasian Entomological Bulletin (Caucas. entomol. bull.) 18 (1): 147-152, DOI: 10.23885/181433262022181-147152, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.23885/181433262022181-147152Abstract. A new species of ants, Dolichoderus jonasi sp. n., from a Late Eocene amber (Rovno and presumably Baltic ambers) of Europe is described from three workers and one male. The new species differs from all known fossil and recent species of the genus by the following set of characters: the presence of thorns on the pronotum, a head tapering to the back with pronounced occipital angles, a dimpled (with numerous pits) sculpture on the head and thorax, the presence of a ridge on the posterior edge of the main surface of the propodeum with a row of large setae, the presence of large straight setae on the body arranged in rows, high and somewhat narrowed to the apex petiole scale. The described species cannot be assigned to any of species groups (complexes) in the genus. The phylogenetic relationships of the new species with other species of the genus are discussed. Based on the studied morphological features, the species is closest to representatives of the debilis complex, widespread in South and Central America. However, it has significant differences and should be considered as the separate jonasi complex. We used computer microtomography methods to study structures inaccessible for optical microscopes and accurate measurements, which made it possible to characterize all diagnostic characters of the new species. Reconstructions of a worker and a male using 3D modeling are presented. The discovery of D. jonasi sp. n. in European Late Eocene amber is another possible evidence of relations between the faunas of Europe and the Americas in the past.

title: Gelidiella papillosa sp. nov. (Gelidiellaceae, Rhodophyta) from Veracruz, Mexico, in the context of the worldwide distribution of G. acerosa

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Resendiz, María Luisa Núñez, Sentíes, Abel, Dreckmann, Kurt M., Hernández, Oscar E., Vilchis, Martha Isabel (2023): Gelidiella papillosa sp. nov. (Gelidiellaceae, Rhodophyta) from Veracruz, Mexico, in the context of the worldwide distribution of G. acerosa. Botanica Marina (Warsaw, Poland) 66 (6): 521-533, DOI: 10.1515/bot-2023-0033, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1515/bot-2023-0033Abstract: Gelidiella acerosa is a widely distributed species, with type locality in Yemen, whose morphology has been characterized by decumbent axes from which numerous abundantly branched erect axes emerge, pectinate, alternate or radial. Recent phylogenetic studies have revealed the presence of genetically independent groups throughout its distribution range. However, these groups cannot be described as independent since there are no sequences from the type locality that allow us to establish the genetic group to which the true G. acerosa belongs, generating a complex of cryptic species. In the present study, from COI-5 P and rbc L sequence data, we detected six genetically differentiated groups, one of which is represented only by specimens from the Western Atlantic region. Given the allopatric pattern, it is possible to describe the Atlantic group as an independent species of the cryptic complex in the Indo-Pacific. Gelidiella papillosa sp. nov. shares several morphological features with other specimens previously identified as G. acerosa in other countries, like the appearance of the thallus, branching patterns, the presence of multiple superficial hairs on the*Corresponding author:María Luisa Núñez Resendiz, Departamento de Hidrobiología, Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana–Iztapalapa, México, A.

title: A new species of hedgehog-lizard of the genus Echinosaura (Squamata: Gymnophthalmidae) from Colombia and Panama with a reevaluation of the conservation status of the genus

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Vásquez-Restrepo, Juan D., Daza, Juan M. (2025): A new species of hedgehog-lizard of the genus Echinosaura (Squamata: Gymnophthalmidae) from Colombia and Panama with a reevaluation of the conservation status of the genus. Zootaxa 5583 (1): 128-142, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5583.1.7, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5583.1.7AbstractThe gymnophthalmid semi-aquatic lizards of the genus Echinosaura have been subject to taxonomic scrutiny in recent years. Here, we combine previously available and new morphological and phylogenetic evidence to describe a new species formerly known under the name E. palmeri. Our results are consistent with previous phylogenetic hypotheses and recover an overlooked evolutionary lineage which is both morphologically and genetically different from the other ones currently recognized within the genus. This species is diagnosable based on external and hemipenial morphology and is phylogenetically related to E. centralis, E. palmeri, and E. panamensis. The new species inhabits the northern portion of the Pacific region in Colombia and the Darien zone between Colombia and Panama. We also re-evaluate and propose a new IUCN extinction risk categorization for the nine species in the genus, assessing three uncategorized species, removing two species from a threatened category, and including a previously considered Least Concern species into a threatened status.

title: Redescription of Chrysosphaerella baikalensis (Chrysophyceae, Chromulinales) with new data on the ultrastructure of its stomatocysts

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Bessudova, Anna, Firsova, Alena D., Likhoshway, Yelena V. (2024): Redescription of Chrysosphaerella baikalensis (Chrysophyceae, Chromulinales) with new data on the ultrastructure of its stomatocysts. Phytotaxa 669 (1): 67-74, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.669.1.7, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.669.1.7AbstractAn amended description of the ultrastructure of plate and spine scales is provided, along with the first description of the stomatocyst Chrysosphaerella baikalensis from Lake Baikal. C. baikalensis exhibits four types of plate scales: small and large elliptical, large rounded, and large subcircular scales. The spines can grow up to 47 μm in length. The stomatocysts of C. baikalensis are spherical or slightly oblate, with a small, regular pore surrounded by a flat pseudoanulus, lacking a collar. Based on their surface ornamentation, two forms of stomatocysts are distinguished, Forma A covered with densely arranged short needle-like outgrowths and Forma B having a smooth to psilate surface. We associate the first form with the immature stage. In this article, we report the growth of C. baikalensis in Lake Baikal during June, in the open water period, at a water temperature of 3.9–4.5 °C. During this period, whole cells and stomatocysts covered with plate scales were observed. Individual spines and plate scales were found at temperatures up to 11.5 ℃.

title: Integrative taxonomic evidence for a new species of genus Gracixalus (Anura, Rhacophoridae) from Mao'er Mountain, Guangxi, China

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Wu, Xiangjian, Pan, Yuanqiang, Chen, Ju, Ye, Jianping, Yu, Guohua, Zou, Tongxiang (2025): Integrative taxonomic evidence for a new species of genus Gracixalus (Anura, Rhacophoridae) from Mao'er Mountain, Guangxi, China. Zoosystematics and Evolution 101 (4): 2039-2053, DOI: 10.3897/zse.101.161448AbstractIt has been shown that the taxonomy of Gracixalus jinxiuensis species complex is very confusing. In this study, we tested for the taxonomy of Gracixalus species from Mao’er Mountain, Guangxi, China, which was once recorded as G. jinxiuensis, based on molecular, morphological, and bioacoustics evidence. Phylogenetic analyses based on mitochondrial 16 S rRNA sequences indicated that the samples from Mao’er Mountain form a distinct lineage closely related to G. jinxiuensis, G. huaping, and G. weii, and they were assigned into an independent operational taxonomic unit by analysis of species delimitation. Morphologically, the lineage from Mao’er Mountain can be distinguished from known congeners by a combination of the following characters: SVL 27.5–33.2 mm in males and 38.1‒39.7 mm in females; dorsal surface beige to brown, rough with a few tubercles on dorsum; internal vocal sac; linea masculina absent; nuptial pads present on fingers I and II; tibiotarsal articulation reaching center of eye; heels overlapping when legs at right angle to body; and white tubercles on temporal region, edge of upper and lower jaw, flank, and dorsal surface of limbs. In addition, bioacoustics analyses showed that the advertisement calls of the population from Mao’er Mountain also differ from advertisement calls of other Gracixalus species. Therefore, we officially described the lineage from Mao’er Mountain as a new species and named it as Gracixalus liusanjieae sp. nov. herein. Including the new species described in this study, now the genus Gracixalus contains 23 species, 12 of which are distributed in China with six known in Guangxi.

Zootaxa 5175 (2): 285-292, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5175.2.6AbstractAlthough the genus Rineloricaria is widely distributed in the Neotropical region, its species usually occupy single drainages with high habitat fidelity. Rineloricaria species show evident sexual dimorphism with hypertrophied odontodes in sexually mature males. Here, we describe a new species of Rineloricaria present in the Rio Paraiba do Sul basin and coastal rivers in Rio de Janeiro State. The new species has extreme sexual dimorphism making possible to differentiate it from all congeners. The new species can also be separated from other sympatric species by morphometric characteristics and dermal plates pattern.

PhytoKeys 255: 41-50, DOI: 10.3897/phytokeys.255.148471AbstractMorphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses clearly revealed that Chimonobambusa damingshanensis should be a member of the genus Sinosasa, rather than Chimonobambusa, and is a distinct species close to Sinosasa huapingensis and S. mingyueshanensis. Morphologically, it differs from all the other known Sinosasa species by internodes initially with white pubescent, culm leaf auricles absent and triangularly subulate sheath blades, characteristics that are unusual in this genus. And this morphological distinction warrants recognition of Ch. damingshanensis as a new combination of Sinosasa.

Alpine Entomology 8: 153-160, DOI: 10.3897/alpento.8.138225AbstractAnthophora onosmarum is a poorly known bee species described from the Caucasus (Georgia). New fieldwork has revealed that the species is present in Bulgaria and Greece, and is also widespread across Turkey, predominantly on the Anatolian plateau. New behavioural data shows that A. onosmarum is likely narrowly oligolectic on the plant genus Onosma (Boraginaceae), and is capable of buzzing flowers to release pollen. This finding illustrates the growing trend of overlooked bee species with more Caucasian, Anatolian, or even Middle Eastern distributions occurring in under-surveyed mountainous parts of the Southern Balkans.

The new species is characterized by the following combination of characters: VI-I, 9 dorsal-fin rays; I, 9 anal-fin rays; 17 pectoral-fin rays; 45–48 lateral and 14–15 transverse scale rows; 4 + 8 or 9 (9) gill rakers of first gill arch; partially scaled prepelvic region; a pale blotch between fourth and fifth spines of first dorsal fin; second and third spines of first dorsal fin elongated, filamentous with orange bands in males; fourth spine of first dorsal fin longer than first in males; first dorsal fin trapezoid and dorsal-fin spines non-filamentous in females; 2 or 3 transverse rows of yellow blotches anteriorly and longitudinal yellow blotches posteriorly on caudal-fin membrane. Comparative molecular analysis reveals that the new species demonstrates significant genetic divergence (9.1–10.6%) in the mitochondrial COI gene from its closest congener, T. latruncularius. The new species exhibits a distinctive ecological association with the snapping shrimp Alpheus randalli, inhabiting sandy bottoms at depths of 18 m. Tomiyamichthys hyacinthinus sp. nov. is currently known only from southern Japan.
