title: New record of endoparasitic Pseudempleurosoma haywardi (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae) in sillaginid fishes from Thailand, with updates on host range, zoogeography, and morphological variation

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Niyom, Nussaba, Wiroonpan, Pichit, Purivirojkul, Watchariya (2023): New record of endoparasitic Pseudempleurosoma haywardi (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae) in sillaginid fishes from Thailand, with updates on host range, zoogeography, and morphological variation. Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 71: 317-330, DOI: 10.26107/RBZ-2023-0024Abstract. Pseudempleurosoma haywardi has unique morphological characteristics that are specially adapted for living inside fish hosts, especially the digestive tract. The infective situations, morphological features, and phylogenetic relationships of P. haywardi in sillaginid fishes collected from the Gulf of Thailand were investigated during February 2016 – February 2023. Of all 629 sillaginid fish individuals (six species) examined, ten Sillago aeolus and six S. sihama were infected by P. haywardi. The overall prevalence of the infection was 2.5%, while the mean intensity was 1.3 monogeneans/infected fish. The general morphology of P. haywardi fitted the original description, except the details of male copulatory organ (MCO); in addition, most measurement characteristics revealed a size difference between our material and those of previous studies. The molecular study based on 28S rRNA confirmed that the specimens found from our investigation were P. haywardi. Our phylogram topology revealed two major clades of the dactylogyrid lineage, and a monophyly of dactylogyrid endoparasitic fauna was demonstrated. Our study represented the first record of the endoparasitic monogenean P. haywardi in Thailand. Despite the low infection rate found in this study, fundamental information on P. haywardi, such as its host range, distribution areas, and morphological variants, was acquired.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article De Souza, Carlos A. F., Voigt, Kerstin, Gurgel, Luciana Sartori, Cordeiro, Thalline R. L., Oliveira, Rafael J. V., Lima, Diogo X., Santiago, André L. C. M. De A. (2018): A new species of Mucor (Mucoromycotina, Mucorales) isolated from an enclave of Upland Atlantic Forest in the semi-arid region of Brazil. Phytotaxa 351 (1): 53-62, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.351.1.4, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.351.1.4AbstractDuring a survey of Mucorales in fragments of an Atlantic Upland Forest inserted in the semiarid region of Pernambuco, Brazil, a specimen of Mucor was isolated from soil samples. The specimen was characterized based on morphological, physiological and molecular data (ITS and LSU rDNA regions). The isolate produces intensely branched sporangiophores commonly with between one and several septa with mostly applanate columellae. The sporangiophores were smooth-walled and varied in shape and size, while some were subglobose. The best growth was at 25°C but there was also good growth at 30°C. Based on the evidence of the analyzed datasets a new species of Mucor is proposed. A detailed description of the new specimen of Mucor from the Brazilian semi-arid region are provided.

The new taxon is morphologically similar to S. parviflora but is larger than sympatric S. parviflora specimens. Serapias ausoniae is characterized by larger floral elements, in particular, the bract is longer (~ 5.0 cm) and wider (~ 1.5 cm) and the dimensions of epichile, hypochile, petals and sepals are on average 40–50% larger than S. parviflora. Karyological analyses showed that the new taxon is a tetraploid (2 n = 72), whereas sympatric and allopatric S. parviflora specimens are diploids (2 n = 36). Moreover, genetic analyses suggest that the new taxon is of autopolyploid origin.

title: A new Maastrichtian hyposaurine dyrosaurid (Crocodylomorpha) from Namibe province, Angola

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Maréchal, Arthur, Rotatori, Filippo Maria, Merella, Marco, Puértolas-Pascual, Eduardo, Sequero, Cristina, Pereira, Ricardo, Nsungani, Pedro, Mateus, Octávio (2025): A new Maastrichtian hyposaurine dyrosaurid (Crocodylomorpha) from Namibe province, Angola. Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 204 (4): 1-19, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlaf092, URL: https://doi.org/10.1093/zoolinnean/zlaf092ABSTRACTDyrosauridae are one of the few clades of large marine vertebrates that survived the Cretaceous/Palaeogene (K–Pg) extinction event. The early diversification of this clade, dated to the Cretaceous, is still poorly understood. We describe a new specimen of Dyrosauridae from the Late Cretaceous of Bentiaba, Angola, represented by a posterior portion of the skull, a left ectopterygoid fragment, and a tooth. Comparative morphological analysis reveals a unique combination of characters distinguishing it from known dyrosaurid taxa but due to the fragmentary nature of the specimen and the absence of key diagnostic features, we assign it to Hyposaurinae indet.. Phylogenetic relationships were tested through maximum parsimony and Bayesian inference, using the SFBD model with time-binning criteria for the K–Pg boundary. Both of our phylogenetic analyses recover this new specimen as Hyposaurinae, which is consistent with our comparative study. Evolutionary rates accelerated during the latest stages of the Cretaceous, although the fossil bias prevents the ability to appreciate their impact on cladogenetic events. We estimated diversification,fossilization, and extinction rates, and we did not find evidence of radiation after the K–Pg in this clade. Biogeographically, this discovery supports hypotheses of longirostrine crocodyliform dispersal in Africa leading to hyposaurine diversification during the Maastrichtian.

title: Ceratopteris baguangensis (Pteridaceae), a new species of Ceratopteris from Guangdong, China

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Li, Zixiang, Xia, Zengqiang, Lin, Lin, He, Chunmei, Luo, Lin, Xing, Fuwu, Wang, Faguo (2024): Ceratopteris baguangensis (Pteridaceae), a new species of Ceratopteris from Guangdong, China. Phytotaxa 658 (2): 216-226, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.658.2.8, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.658.2.8AbstractA new species of fern, Ceratopteris baguangensis was recently discovered in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. Detailed morphological descriptions and photographs of the habitat are shown. C. baguangensis is similar to C. thalictroides and C. oblongiloba in the morphology of the fertile fronds but is distinct from them in the lobes of the sterile fronds. Furthermore, the chloroplast genome of C. baguangensis was sequenced and characterized. The annotated results revealed that the chloroplast genome had a conserved quadripartite structure, with a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) separating the large single copy (LSC) region and the small single copy (SSC) region, resulting in a total length of 149,755 base pairs (bp). The genome encodes a total of 120 unique genes, including 76 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Molecular evidence indicated that the C. baguangensis formed a distinct lineage and was sister to C. oblongiloba. Given the current population size of C. baguangensis in Baguang Heritiera littoralia Wetland Park, it is suggested C. baguangensis should be categorized as an Endangered (EN) species according to the criteria of IUCN. This study further enriches the diversity of the genus Ceratopteris and will help to elucidate their phylogenetic relationships.

title: Als Larvenhabitate von Orthetrum coerulescens (Odonata: Libellulidae) im Hinblick auf sporadische Sommertrockenheit optimierte Flachmoorgräben

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Wildermuth, Hansruedi (2020): Als Larvenhabitate von Orthetrum coerulescens (Odonata: Libellulidae) im Hinblick auf sporadische Sommertrockenheit optimierte Flachmoorgräben. Entomo Helvetica 13: 107-116, DOI: 10.5169/seals-985888Abstract: Larval habitats of Orthetrum coerulescens (Fabricius, 1798) optimized in fenland ditches by counteracting sporadic aestival desiccation (Odonata: Libellulidae). − In 1981–82, 1.5 ha of overgrown fenland were cleared in a nature reserve on the eastern Swiss plateau. The drainage ditches at the site were rebuilt, thus converting the fenland back into a traditional litter meadow. In order to retain water, six controllable weirs were installed, slowing desiccation of the ditches during hot periods with low or no precipitation. Maintenance of ditches was staggered in both space and time. During systematic success monitoring from 2006 to 2019, a total of 26 species of Odonata were recorded, eleven of which were either permanently or temporally indigenous. The study focused specifically on the keeled skimmer Orthetrum coerulescens. Up to 150 territorial males were located simultaneously at the ditches and successful reproductions were recorded every year. Due to water retention by the weirs, the ditches did not dry out even during long, dry summer periods. In extreme cases, larvae survived in the moist layer of the peat mud.Zusammenfassung: Ein 1,5 ha grosses, ehemals verbuschtes Flachmoor wurde 1981/82 gerodet und durch die Wiederherstellung des 370 m langen Drainagesystems in seinen früheren Zustand als Streuwiese überführt. Um das Trockenfallen der Gräben während trocken-heisser Sommerperioden zu verzögern, wurden regulierbare Stauwehre eingebaut. Der Unterhalt der Gräben erfolgte je nach Bedarf, räumlich und zeitlich gestaffelt. Bei den von 2006 bis 2009 jährlich systematisch durchgeführten Erfolgskontrollen wurden an den Gräben insgesamt 26 Libellenarten nachgewiesen, 11 davon zumindest zeitweise bodenständig. Im Fokus stand der Kleine Blaupfeil Orthetrum coerulescens. Maximal hielten sich bis rund 150 territoriale Männchen gleichzeitig an den Gräben auf. Es gab jährlich Nachweise für eine erfolgreiche Entwicklung. Dank des Wasserrückstaus trockneten die Gewässer selbst in längeren niederschlagsfreien Sommerperioden nicht vollständig aus. Im Extremfall konnten die Larven in der feuchten Schicht aus Torfschlamm überleben.

Phytotaxa 710 (3): 283-289, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.710.3.5, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5360.3.8AbstractGastrodia motuoensis, a new species of mycoheterotrophic orchid from Southeast Xizang, China, is described and illustrated. Morphologically the new species allies with G. theana, G. sikkimensis, G. albida, and G. nipponica in their dwarf stature, not widely opening flowers, and lateral wings of the column, but it is distinct in its larger petals, lip with shortly caudate apex, a pair of lamellae on disc, and the stigma positioned at the middle of the column. Results of molecular phylogenetics based on plastid protein-coding sequences reveal that the new species is sister to G. crispa + G. flexistyla with high support, all of which belong to a recently diverged clade inside the genus Gastrodia. The discovery of G. motuoensis, together with several other Gastrodia species described in recent years, highlights potentially underrecognized diversity of these cryptic mycoheterotrophs.
