title: A new subtropical species of goby of the genus Luciogobius (Gobiidae) from southwestern Japan

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Koreeda, Reo, Maeda, Ken, Motomura, Hiroyuki (2023): A new subtropical species of goby of the genus Luciogobius (Gobiidae) from southwestern Japan. Zootaxa 5361 (3): 390-408, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5361.3.5, URL: https://www.mapress.com/zt/article/download/zootaxa.5361.3.5/52197AbstractLuciogobius griseus n. sp., belonging to the Luciogobius platycephalus complex, is described on the basis of 40 specimens from the Nansei Islands, southwestern Japan (subtropical area). The new species is generally found in intertidal gravel sediments subjected to freshwater runoff from springs on coastal lines or river mouths and is characterized by the following combination of characters: total second dorsal-fin rays 9–12 (modally 11); total anal-fin rays usually 12–14 (modally 13); pectoral-fin rays 12–15 (modally 13); vertebrae 17 or 18 + 23 or 24 = 40–42 (18 + 23 = 41); uppermost 2–4 (2–3) rays on pectoral fin free; 8–12 pectoral-fin rays branched (uppermost free rays and sometimes lowermost ray unbranched); pectoral-fin membrane not strongly concave anteriorly (except for free rays); pelvic fins united, forming a disk; head relatively short, 13.9–20.8% of standard length (SL); relatively short pre-pelvic fin, length 14.4–22.1% of SL; relatively long pre-dorsal fin, length 68.9–72.9% of SL; relatively long pre-anal fin, length 63.5–67.7% of SL; relatively short pelvic fin, length 2.8–4.7% of SL; distance between posterior end of pelvic fin and anus relatively long, 32.0–36.4% of SL (aforementioned morphometrics each distinguishing L. griseus n. sp. from other species in the L. platycephalus complex); and fresh specimens with greenish dark brown or gray body. A key to the L. platycephalus complex is provided, together with limited descriptions and remarks on the other two members of the complex.

Faunitaxys (London, England) 13 (29): 1-8, DOI: 10.57800/faunitaxys-13(29), URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15933344Abstract. – The Ochodaeidae fauna of Israel is reviewed, with three valid species recognized: Ochodaeus (Ochodaeus) berytensis Petrovitz, 1965, O. (O.) gigas Marseul, 1878, and O. (Diplochodaeus) alleonis Fairmaire, 1884. Previous records of O. cornifrons Solsky, 1876 and O. inscutellaris Pic, 1900 are now considered misidentifications: the former is restricted to Central Asian mountains, while the latter was recently synonymized with O. alleonis (Huchet & Hillert, 2025). A revised species list is presented, along with an identification key and updated distribution map. Preliminary observations indicate that these species exhibit contrasting diel activity patterns, from strict nocturnality to predominant diurnality. This study provides a revised taxonomic and distributional framework for the Israeli Ochodaeidae and serves as a basis for further taxonomic and ecological research on this taxon in the region.Huchet J.-B., 2025. – The Ochodaeidae of Israel: A taxonomic review with key to species and updated distribution (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea).

title: Diversity of Portanini (Insecta: Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) from Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, Southeastern Brazil, with descriptions of two new species

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Anselmini, Luiza Silva, Prando, Jádila Santos, Takiya, Daniela Maeda (2022): Diversity of Portanini (Insecta: Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) from Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, Southeastern Brazil, with descriptions of two new species. Zootaxa 5174 (5): 583-595, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5174.5.6AbstractA survey of Portanini (Insecta: Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) from Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, Southeastern Brazil was conducted. This survey resulted in an increase of the known diversity of Portanini from one to four species in the area. Portanus youngi Linnavuori, 1959 is newly recorded from Minas Gerais State and Itatiaia and Resende municipalities (Rio de Janeiro State), while Portanus felixi Carvalho, 2012 is newly recorded from the municipality of Itatiaia (Rio de Janeiro State). In addition, two new species of Portanini are described: Portanus cornutus sp. nov. and Portanus spherae sp. nov. from Rio de Janeiro State. The former can be distinguished from other Portanus species by four short longitudinal white stripes on posterior margin of crown and pygofer lobe long and with ventrally curved processes. The latter can be distinguished from other Portanus species by a pair of long posteroventral spiniform processes on pygofer; aedeagus with long preatrium, robust atrium, long dorsal apodemes, and shaft directed dorsally; and internal female sternite VIII sclerotized.

Phytotaxa 536 (1): 53-71, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.536.1.3AbstractMuscari vanensis (Asparagaceae) is described and illustrated from East Anatolia, Turkey. This species is distributed in slopes of stony rocky areas facing south of Lake Van (B 5 Van Province). Muscari vanensis an endemic confined to East Anatolia, is related to mainly with M. botryoides and M. armeniacum. Diagnostic morphological characters have been discussed and compared with those of closely related taxa. At the first glance, the new species is easily separated from its relatives in its dwarf appearance and patent leaves, shorter scape, densely globose-oblong raceme, globose urceolate and swollen fertile flowers. Additionally, karyological, molecular and palynological data were used to support this diagnostic characters and to strengthen the taxonomic background of the new species.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Bass, Amber, Needham, Karen, Bennett, Andrew M. R. (2022): First record of Vespa crabro Linnaeus (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) in western North America with a review of recorded species of Vespa Linnaeus in Canada. Zootaxa 5154 (3): 305-318, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5154.3.4AbstractVespa crabro Linnaeus is newly reported as an adventive species in British Columbia, Canada which is the first record of this invasive species in western North America. The specimen of V. crabro was identified using morphological diagnostic keys and by comparison to authoritatively identified specimens. DNA barcoding provided support that the British Columbia specimen is conspecific with sequenced specimens of V. crabro. It is not possible to be certain of the origin of the specimen, but the DNA barcode was identical to sequence from specimens of V. crabro from South Korea. DNA barcoding was also performed on morphologically identified specimens of Vespa simillima and Vespa soror collected previously in British Columbia and the sequences were closest to V. simillima and V. soror Genbank sequences, respectively. There is no evidence that any of these species have established populations in the province. We provide diagnostic morphological characters to distinguish Canadian Vespa species from each other including Vespa mandarinia which has recently established populations in British Columbia and Washington State, USA. The potential detrimental impacts of each species are discussed.

This isolated species is described in a detailed morphological scenario that includes all Recent congeneric species. The detailed anatomy of two Recent species, M. zebra and M. cervinetta, were described in a previous paper. The remaining one, M. cervus, is included herein. Brief taxonomical comments on all these species is also included. The new species can be distinguished from other Western Atlantic species by its larger size, proportionally heavier and more solid shell, more rounded and wider outline, longer posterior tapered ending and slightly inflated base; anatomically it has some exclusivities, such as the mantle papillae mostly bearing 3–5 distal aligned projections, osphradium with a shorter branch, modifications in some odontophore muscles, penis with a clear glandular region, and a sac-like bursa copulatrix with a long duct. Based on the comparative analysis, the genus Macrocypraea can be defined by the wide distance between the osphradium and gill; a twofold buccal muscle (mc); a radular ventral tensor muscle (pair m11) surrounding radular sac; and a bursa copulatrix located at middle level of the pallial oviduct.

Zootaxa 5647 (5): 461-468, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5647.5.4, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5647.5.4AbstractThe whereabouts of the types of the six species of Sri Lankan cypriniform fishes described by Pieter Bleeker in 1863 have long remained unknown. These specimens are now reported from the collection of the Naturalis Biodiversity Centre in Leiden, the Netherlands. Here we provide meristic and morphometric data on (as well as photographs of) the type specimens in this collection. These include the three syntypes of Garra ceylonensis, the holotype of Systomus pleurotaenia, the holotype of Devario micronema, one of the three syntypes of Devario lineolatus, and the three syntypes of Schistura notostigma. The five syntypes of Plesiopuntius bimaculatus, though present, are in a very poor state. Devario lineolatus (Bleeker), for which the replacement name D. monticola has previously been proposed, is a junior subjective synonym of D. malabaricus (Jerdon). Devario micronema is the species that occurs in the lowlands of south-western Sri Lanka. An examination of the three syntypes of Schistura notostigma shows it to be distinct from S. madhavai and S. scripta.
