title: Lophiobrycon weitzmani, a new genus and species of glandulocaudine fish (Characiformes: Characidae) from the rio Grande drainage, upper rio Paraná system, southeastern Brazil

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Castro, Ricardo M. C., Ribeiro, Alexandre C., Benine, Ricardo C., Melo, Alex L. A. (2003): Lophiobrycon weitzmani, a new genus and species of glandulocaudine fish (Characiformes: Characidae) from the rio Grande drainage, upper rio Paraná system, southeastern Brazil. Neotropical Ichthyology 1 (1): 11-19, DOI: 10.1590/S1679-62252003000100002, URL: http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S1679-62252003000100002&lng=en&tlng=enA new genus and species of glandulocaudine, Lophiobrycon weitzmani, is described based on specimens collected in headwater tributary streams of the rio Grande, upper rio Paraná system, State of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil. The inclusion of the new species in the phylogeny of the subfamily Glandulocaudinae proposed by Weitzman & Menezes (1998), reveals a sister group relationship between the new genus and the monophyletic group composed of Glandulocauda and Mimagoniates that currently form the tribe Glandulocaudini. The new species can be readily distinguished from all other species of the tribe by the autapomorphic presence in adult male individuals (with more than 23.9 mm standard length) of an adipose-fin whose base extends for almost the entire distance between the posterior terminus of the base of the dorsal fin and the base of the upper lobe of the caudal fin and averages approximately 25% standard length, along with the presence of globular expansions formed by the lepidotrichia and hypertrophied soft tissue in the middle portions of the first and second pectoral-fin rays. The diagnosis of the tribe Glandulocaudini is modified to accommodate the new genus.Um novo gênero e espécie de glandulocaudine, Lophiobrycon weitzmani, é descrito com base em exemplares coletados em riachos de cabeceira da drenagem do rio Grande, sistema do alto rio Paraná, Estado de Minas Gerais, sudeste do Brasil. A inclusão desta nova espécie na filogenia da subfamília Glandulocaudinae, proposta por Weitzman & Menezes (1998), revela uma relação de grupos irmãos entre o novo gênero e o grupo monofilético formado por Glandulocauda e Mimagoniates, atualmente compondo a tribo Glandulocaudini. A nova espécie pode ser facilmente distinguida das demais da tribo pela posse autapomórfica, nos machos adultos (com mais de 23,9 mm de comprimento padrão), de uma nadadeira adiposa com a base estendendo-se por praticamente a totalidade da distância entre a terminação posterior da base da nadadeira dorsal e base do lobo caudal superior, equivalendo em média a aproximadamente 25% do comprimento padrão, juntamente com a presença de expansões globulares, formadas por lepidotríquios e tecido mole hipertrofiado, na porção média do primeiro e segundo raios da nadadeira peitoral. A diagnose da tribo Glandulocaudini é modificada para acomodar o novo gênero.

Zoosystema 45 (6): 163-175, DOI: 10.5252/zoosystema2023v45a6ABSTRACTThe genus Brazilozoros Kukalova-Peck & Peck, 1993 (Zoraptera, Spiralizoridae) currently includes three species distributed in the Neotropical region. Here we describe a new species, B. kukalovae n. sp., from French Guiana. It is related to B. weidneri (New, 1978) but differs by the morphology of the male genitalia and the sensilla basiconica on 10th abdominal tergite. We also present a molecular phylogenetic reconstruction that confirms the position of the new species in Brazilozoros and the inclusion of Brazilozoros in the Spiralizoridae Kočárek, Horká & Kundrata, 2020. The study provides further evidence for the high level of cryptic diversity in the Zoraptera.

title: Rediscovery of synanthropic silverfish Ctenolepisma calvum (Ritter, 1910) (Insecta: Zygentoma: Lepismatidae: Ctenolepismatinae) from Kerala, India and assignation of European C. calvum to a new species

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Rafael, Sheeba Raphel, Andrew, Rafael Molero-Baltanás, Joyce, Andrew Mitchell, Jose, Joyce (2025): Rediscovery of synanthropic silverfish Ctenolepisma calvum (Ritter, 1910) (Insecta: Zygentoma: Lepismatidae: Ctenolepismatinae) from Kerala, India and assignation of European C. calvum to a new species. Zoosystema 47 (21): 425-443, DOI: 10.5252/zoosystema2025v47a21, URL: https://sciencepress.mnhn.fr/sites/default/files/articles/pdf/zoosystema2025v47a21.pdfABSTRACTCtenolepisma calvum (Ritter, 1910) (Zygentoma: Lepismatidae: Ctenolepismatinae) was first described with two pairs of styli by Ritter on the basis of specimens from Sri Lanka found in houses. Recent records of synanthropic populations of Ctenolepisma Escherich, 1905 with similar habitus were attributed to this species and redescribed as bearing only one pair of styli, interpreting Ritter’s reference to the number of styli as erroneous. However, a species of silverfish from Kerala, India, has been found that matches Ritter’s description of C. calvum in terms of morphological characters and is genetically different from the lineages of European Ctenolepisma previously attributed to C. calvum. Thus, the specimens from Europe studied by Molero-Baltanás et al. (2024a) as C. calvum are assigned to a new species, C. phantasma Molero-Baltanás, Raphel, Mitchell & Jose, n. sp. Ctenolepisma calvum is the tenth species in the genus Ctenolepisma reported from India. A detailed morphological redescription of this species is presented in this paper, together with its differences from C. phantasma Molero-Baltanás, Raphel, Mitchell & Jose, n. sp. recorded in Europe and Japan, and molecular sequences of the authentic C. calvum.

title: Two new species of Branchinotogluma (Polynoidae: Annelida) from chemosynthesis-based ecosystems in Japan

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Jimi, Naoto, Chen, Chong, Fujiwara, Yoshihiro (2022): Two new species of Branchinotogluma (Polynoidae: Annelida) from chemosynthesis-based ecosystems in Japan. Zootaxa 5138 (1): 17-30, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5138.1.2AbstractThe widely distributed polychaete family Polynoidae Kinberg, 1856 is found across all oceans and from shallow to deep waters, including deep-sea hydrothermal vents and hydrocarbon seeps. Taxa inhabiting chemosynthesis-based ecosystems are often endemic to those specific habitats commonly targeted by deep-sea mining, and understanding their species diversity is essential for shaping conservation plans. Here, we report two previously undescribed scale-worms in the genus Branchinotogluma Pettibone, 1985 from the Off Hatsushima hydrocarbon seep of Sagami Bay and the Nikko Seamount hydrothermal vent on the Izu-Ogasawara Arc, and describe them as B. nikkoensis sp. nov. and B. sagamiensis sp. nov. Branchinotogluma nikkoensis sp. nov. is distinguished from the known species by the following characters: i) ventral segmental lamellae near ventral bases of neuropodia present on segments 13–17, ii) dorsal tentacular cirri being longer than ventral tentacular cirri, iii) absence of dorsal tubercles. Branchinotogluma sagamiensis sp. nov. can be differentiated from other congeners by i) 20 segments, ii) dorsal tentacular cirri being longer than ventral tentacular cirri, iii) ventral segmental lamellae near ventral bases of neuropodia present on segments 13–18, and iv) thin median antennae. The two new species are distinct in both morphology and four gene sequences from the only two species previously known from Japan including Branchinotogluma japonicus (Miura & Hashimoto, 1991) and B. elytropapillata Zhang, Chen & Qiu, 2018, originally described from Kaikata Seamount vent on the Izu-Ogasawara Arc and Okinawa Trough, respectively

(Pomacentridae) from the Eocene (49 Ma) Pesciara deposits of the Bolca locality, Italy, is described. † Chiarachromis gen. nov. is characterized by a unique combination of vertebral (11+14=25) and unpaired fin-ray counts (D X, 11; A II, 7; C 7, I, 7-6,I, 6), long pelvic fins, and the possession of three supraneurals. With exceptional preservation of the fin shape and the body form, this damselfish raises questions about the role of body shape, especially fin height, in the early evolution of reef fishes, and offers new insights into the rapid development of modern, predator-prey interactions in the early evolution of reef fishes.

Royal Society Open Science (231368) 11 (3): 1-23, DOI: 10.1098/rsos.231368, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rsos.231368Killer whales (Orcinus orca) are currently recognized as a single ecologically and morphologically diverse, globally distributed species. Multiple morphotypes or ecotypes have been described, often associated with feeding specialization, and several studies have suggested taxonomic revision to include multiple subspecies or species in the genus. We review the ecological, morphological and genetic data for the well-studied ‘resident’ and Bigg’s (aka ‘transient’) ecotypes in the eastern North Pacific and use quantitative taxonomic guidelines and standards to determine whether the taxonomic status of these killer whale ecotypes should be revised. Our review and new analyses indicate that species-level status is justified in both cases, and we conclude that eastern North Pacific Bigg’s killer whales should be recognized as Orcinus rectipinnus (Cope in Scammon, 1869) and resident killer whales should be recognized as Orcinus ater (Cope in Scammon, 1869).Subject Category:

Steccherinum tenuissimum is characterized by an annual growth habit, resupinate basidiomata with an odontioid hymenial surface, a dimitic hyphal system with clamped generative hyphae, strongly encrusted cystidia and basidiospores measuring 3–5 × 2–3.5 μm. Steccherinum xanthum is characterized by odontioid basidiomata and a monomitic hyphal system with generative hyphae bearing clamp connections and covering by crystals, colourless, thin-walled, smooth, IKI–, CB –and has basidiospores measuring 2.7–5.5 × 1.8–4.0 μm. Sequences of the ITS and nLSU nrRNA gene regions of the studied samples were generated, and phylogenetic analyses were performed with maximum likelihood, maximum parsimony and Bayesian inference methods. The phylogenetic analyses based on molecular data of ITS + nLSU sequences showed that two new Steccherinum species felled into the residual polyporoid clade. Further investigation was obtained for more representative taxa in Steccherinum based on ITS + nLSU sequences, which demonstrated that S. tenuissimum and S. xanthum were sister to S. robustius with high support (100% BP, 100% BS and 1.00 BPP).
