title: Identification of two new species of Mecistocephalus (Chilopoda, Geophilomorpha, Mecistocephalidae) from southern China and the re-description of Mecistocephalus smithii Pocock, 1895

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Pan, Yang-Yang, Fan, Jia-Bo, You, Chun-Xue, Jiang, Chao (2024): Identification of two new species of Mecistocephalus (Chilopoda, Geophilomorpha, Mecistocephalidae) from southern China and the re-description of Mecistocephalus smithii Pocock, 1895. ZooKeys 1218: 1-23, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1218.130709AbstractMecistocephalus Newport, 1843 is the most diverse genus in the family Mecistocephalidae; however, only two species have been recorded in mainland China to date. Therefore, taxonomic research on Chinese Mecistocephalus needs further research. In this study, the species diversity of Mecistocephalus in southern China was investigated using the mitochondrial marker COI integrated with morphological evidence. Species delimitation using Automatic Barcode Gap Discovery, Poisson Tree Processes, and phylogenetic and morphological analyses revealed ten species, including two newly described species, M. chuensis Jiang & You, sp. nov. and M. huangi Jiang & You, sp. nov. Furthermore, based on newly collected specimens, the presence of the little-known species M. smithii Pocock, 1895 was confirmed in China and thoroughly re-described.

title: A phylogenetic study of Micarea melaeniza and similar-looking species (Pilocarpaceae) unveils hidden diversity and clarifies species boundaries and reproduction modes

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Kantelinen, Annina, Svensson, Måns, Malíček, Jiří, Vondrák, Jan, Thor, Göran, Palice, Zdeněk, Svoboda, Stanislav, Myllys, Leena (2024): A phylogenetic study of Micarea melaeniza and similar-looking species (Pilocarpaceae) unveils hidden diversity and clarifies species boundaries and reproduction modes. MycoKeys 106: 327-353, DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.106.123484AbstractMicarea (Ascomycota, Pilocarpaceae) is a large cosmopolitan genus of crustose lichens. We investigated molecular systematics and taxonomy of the poorly known Micarea melaeniza group focussing on M. melaeniza, M. nigella and M. osloensis. A total of 54 new sequences were generated and using Bayesian and maximum likelihood analysis of two markers (nuITS and mtSSU), we discovered two previously unrecognized phylogenetic lineages, one of which is described here as Micarea eurasiatica Kantelinen & G. Thor, sp. nov., morphologically characterized by pycnidia that are sessile to emergent, cylindrically shaped, with greenish-black K + olive green, wall pigmentation and containing large mesoconidia up to 6 µm in length. The species is known from Japan and Finland. In addition, we show that the reproduction biology of M. osloensis has been poorly understood and that the species often occurs as an anamorph with stipitate pycnidia. We present a species synopsis and notes on pigments. Our research supports previous results of asexuality being an important reproductive strategy of species growing on dead wood.

These new species are E. coyolarensis n. sp., E. erwini n. sp. and E. siona n. sp. The species group danubiana is re-diagnosed, by establishing that the male hypandrium is of one sclerite, rather than three, as it had been previously diagnosed. Among the amendments proposed, the species group zelayensis now includes only E. zelayensis García Aldrete and exclude E. reyesi García Aldrete, González Obando & Carrejo and E. guentherbuchi González Obando, García Aldrete & Carrejo, as had been previously established. Species group guentherbuchi is diagnosed and includes E. guentherbuchi and E. nasa González-Obando, García Aldrete & Carrejo. Euplocania coyolarensis n. sp., is described from Nicaragua, and includes as part of the species group danubiana. Species group D is also re-diagnosed and named group erwini, including the other two species described here.

Zootaxa 5115 (3): 301-341, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5115.3.1AbstractWe revise the systematics of Hemidactylus giganteus —an Indian endemic leaf-toed gecko based on recent collections from the type locality and other localities in peninsular India. We provide a comprehensive redescription of H. giganteus sensu stricto and describe three new allied species from the Karnataka and Telangana states in India. We analysed the phylogenetic relationships between the three new species, H. raya sp. nov., H. saxicolus sp. nov., and H. aemulus sp. nov., and found them to be nested within the H. giganteus sensu lato branch. The pairwise genetic divergence between these new cryptic taxa from H. giganteus sensu stricto ranged from 5.88% to 10.95% for the Cyt b gene. The new species also differ from H. giganteus sensu stricto based on number of femoral pores on each thigh and poreless scales separating them (18–23 femoral pores and seven or eight poreless scales versus 17 femoral pores and seven poreless scales in H. raya sp. nov., 26 or 27 femoral pores and nine poreless scales in H. saxicolus sp. nov., and 22–25 femoral pores and nine to ten poreless scales in H. aemulus sp. nov.), corroborated by linear discriminant analysis based on 29 morphometric and meristic characters. Our species delimitation analysis shows the presence of three additional putative new species awaiting formal description within the H. giganteus sensu lato branch.

title: A new species and a new record of Cirratulidae (Annelida, Cirratulida) from Loki’s Castle vent field

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Grosse, Maël, Kongsrud, Jon Anders, Alvestad, Tom, Eilertsen, Mari Heggernes, Budaeva, Nataliya (2025): A new species and a new record of Cirratulidae (Annelida, Cirratulida) from Loki’s Castle vent field. European Journal of Taxonomy 987: 1-25, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2025.987.2855, URL: https://europeanjournaloftaxonomy.eu/index.php/ejt/article/download/2855/12979Abstract. Deep-sea research is a very active field in which environments such as hydrothermal vents are of particular interest because they host a unique and often endemic fauna. In this paper, we describe a new species of the genus Caulleriella Chamberlin, 1919 (Annelida, Cirratulidae Ryckholt, 1851) and report the presence of Raricirrus arcticus Buzhinskaja & Smirnov, 2017 at Loki’s Castle vent field (LCVF), which is the first detailed report of this species since the original description. Both species are illustrated and similarities with closely related species are discussed. We provide genetic data for COI, 16S and 28S for both species. Phylogenetic analyses confirm the identity of each species and the monophyly of each genus. Caulleriella jormungandri sp. nov., in addition to being common at LCVF, is recorded from stations without any known chemosynthesis-based environments, suggesting this species to be a part of the background fauna. Raricirrus arcticus was originally described from a cold seep, and with the new records from the Loki’s Castle hydrothermal vent, it is considered to be a specialist of chemosynthesis-based ecosystems and the geographic distribution of the species is vastly expanded from the Laptev Sea to the Nordic Seas.

MycoKeys 114: 29-48, DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.114.138647AbstractErioscyphella is found across various regions and is part of the family Lachnaceae (Helotiales). It is distinguished by its white to orange disc-shaped apothecia, white to brown receptacles, and granulated hairs that contain amorphous or resinous material. These hairs lack swelling apices and crystals. Additionally, this genus is unique for its long ascospores. In the present study, we collected eight specimens from southwestern China. Morphological and phylogenetic analyses based on the combined LSU, ITS, mtSSU and RPB 2 dataset showed that our specimens represent four new species of Erioscyphella, including E. ailaoensis, E. baimana, E. gelangheica and E. tengyueica. Here, we provide complete morphological descriptions with illustrations and sequence data essential for future taxonomic and evolutionary research.
