title: Nerocila species (Crustacea, Isopoda, Cymothoidae) from Indian marine fishes

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Trilles, Jean-Paul, Rameshkumar, Ganapathy, Ravichandran, Samuthirapandian (2013): Nerocila species (Crustacea, Isopoda, Cymothoidae) from Indian marine fishes. Parasitology Research (1273) 112 (3): 1273-1286, DOI: 10.1007/s00436-012-3263-5, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00436-012-3263-5Abstract Eleven Nerocila species are recorded from 22 marine fishes belonging to 15 families. Three, Nerocila arres, Nerocila depressa, and Nerocila loveni, are new for the Indian fauna. N. arres and Nerocila sigani, previously synonymized, are redescribed and their individuality is restored. Nerocila exocoeti, until now inadequately identified, is described and distinctly characterized. A neotype is designated. New hosts were identified for N. depressa, N. loveni, Nerocila phaiopleura, Nerocila serra, and Nerocila sundaica. Host–parasite relationships were considered. The parasitologic indexes were calculated. The site of attachment of the parasites on their hosts was also observed. A checklist of the nominal Nerocila species until now reported from Indian marine fishes was compiled.

title: Morphological and phylogenetic analyses reveal two new species and a new record of Apiospora (Amphisphaeriales, Apiosporaceae) in China

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Liu, Rongyu, Li, Duhua, Zhang, Zhaoxue, Liu, Shubin, Liu, Xinye, Wang, Yixin, Zhao, Heng, Liu, Xiaoyong, Zhang, Xiuguo, Xia, Jiwen, Wang, Yujiao (2023): Morphological and phylogenetic analyses reveal two new species and a new record of Apiospora (Amphisphaeriales, Apiosporaceae) in China.

title: Arthrocatenales, a new order of extremophilic fungi in the Dothideomycetes

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Piątek, Marcin, Stryjak-Bogacka, Monika, Czachura, Paweł (2024): Arthrocatenales, a new order of extremophilic fungi in the Dothideomycetes. MycoKeys 108: 47-74, DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.108.128033AbstractThe widely treated order Capnodiales is one of the most important orders in the class Dothideomycetes. Recently, the order Capnodiales s. lat. was reassessed and split into seven orders (Capnodiales s. str., Cladosporiales, Comminutisporales, Mycosphaerellales, Neophaeothecales, Phaeothecales and Racodiales) based on multi-locus phylogeny, morphology and life strategies. In this study, two Arthrocatena strains isolated from sooty mould communities on the leaves of Tilia cordata and needles of Pinus nigra in southern Poland were analyzed. Multi-locus phylogenetic analyses (ITS-LSU-SSU- rpb 2 - tef 1) along with morphological examination showed that they belong to Capnobotryella antalyensis, which represents a sister taxon to Arthrocatena tenebrosa. Capnobotryella antalyensis is a rock-inhabiting fungus described from Turkey. The following new combination is proposed: Arthrocatena antalyensis. Phylogenetic analyses also showed that Arthrocatena and related genus Hyphoconis, both known previously only from rocks, form a sister lineage to orders Cladosporiales and Comminutisporales. The new order Arthrocatenales and new family Arthrocatenaceae are proposed to this clade. Representatives of this order are extremophilic fungi that live on rocks and in sooty mould communities.

title: Two new species of Stylochaeton (Araceae: Aroideae) from South Africa

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Struwig, Madeleen, Le Roux, Precious T., Siebert, Stefan J., Van Wyk, Abraham E. (2023): Two new species of Stylochaeton (Araceae: Aroideae) from South Africa. Phytotaxa 620 (1): 1-17, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.620.1.1, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.620.1.1AbstractWe are describing here Stylochaeton glaucophyllum and S. sekhukhuniense, two new species from northeastern South Africa. Both species have a restricted distribution and are endemic to the Sekhukhuneland Centre of Plant Endemism, Limpopo and Mpumalanga Provinces, South Africa. The new species occur sympatrically with S. natalense, but never with one another. Stylochaeton glaucophyllum prefers norite and pyroxenite hills and mountains, whereas S. sekhukhuniense is associated with similar rock types in low-lying rocky areas. Both new species have the base of the spadix and infructescence partly below-ground and are mainly associated with open savannah. Stylochaeton glaucophyllum can be distinguished from S. sekhukhuniense in having greenish blue leaves with linear lobes while S. sekhukhuniense has green leaves with elliptic lobes. The leaves of S. glaucophyllum are longer (112–332 mm) than those of S. sekhukhuniense (44–180 mm). The petiolar sheath of S. sekhukhuniense extends into two slender, curling ligulae which are absent in S. glaucophyllum. Also included here is a key to the seven currently accepted species of Stylochaeton in southern Africa (South Africa, Eswatini, Zimbabwe and Mozambique).

title: Revision of the Oligocene pamphiliid genus and species Tapholyda caplani (Cockerell, 1933)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Jouault, Corentin, Wei, Mei-cai, Niu, Geng-yun, Nel, André (2022): Revision of the Oligocene pamphiliid genus and species Tapholyda caplani (Cockerell, 1933). Palaeoentomology 5 (2): 173-182, DOI: 10.11646/palaeoentomology.5.2.11, URL: http://zoobank.org/6076081c-ed86-488d-b12e-597d60fca502AbstractThe position of the enigmatic Oligocene pamphiliid genus and species Tapholyda caplani (Cockerell, 1933) is revised based on new specimens from the late Oligocene of the Creede Formation (Colorado, USA). The study of the wing venation and body characters indicate affinities with the fossil subfamily Juralydinae. The species is transferred to the latter accordingly. We revise the diagnoses of the Juralydinae and Tapholyda caplani. We designate a lectotype for the species and provide an interpretative drawing of its forewing venation. The placement of Tapholyda caplani in the Juralydinae extends the temporal range of the subfamily to the Oligocene.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Yan, Xiao-Ni, Zhang, Chu-Long (2024): Three new endophytic Apiospora species (Apiosporaceae, Amphisphaeriales) from China. MycoKeys 105: 295-316, DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.105.122583AbstractApiospora species are widely distributed fungi with diverse lifestyles, primarily functioning as plant pathogens, as well as exhibiting saprophytic and endophytic behaviors. This study reports the discovery of three new species of Apiospora, namely A. gongcheniae, A. paragongcheniae, and A. neogongcheniae, isolated from healthy Poaceae plants in China. These novel species were identified through a multi-gene phylogenetic analysis. The phylogenetic analysis of the combined ITS, LSU, tef 1, and tub 2 sequence data revealed that the three new species formed a robustly supported clade with A. garethjonesii, A. neogarethjonesii, A. setostroma, A. subrosea, A. mytilomorpha, and A. neobambusae. Detailed descriptions of the newly discovered species are provided and compared with closely related species to enhance our understanding of the genus Apiospora.

Parahemeroscopus gen. nov. has the mixed characters of the hemeroscopid genera Hemeroscopus Pritykina, 1977 and Abrohemeroscopus Ren, Liu & Cheng, 2003, and probably represents a transitional dragonfly from Abrohemeroscopus to Hemeroscopus. The new finding not only adds to the diversity of the Hemeroscopidae Pritykina, 1977, but also provides clues for revealing the early evolution of the hemeroscopid dragonflies.
