title: New taxonomic data on Zodariinae (Araneae: Zodariidae) of Azerbaijan, Iran Afghanistan and Pakistan

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Zamani, Alireza, Marusik, Yuri M. (2022): New taxonomic data on Zodariinae (Araneae: Zodariidae) of Azerbaijan, Iran Afghanistan and Pakistan. Zootaxa 5155 (3): 423-438, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5155.3.7AbstractNew taxonomic considerations on several species of the zodariid spider subfamily Zodariinae Thorell, 1881 occurring in Azerbaijan, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan are presented. Three species, Trygetus cyrus sp. n. (♀; Fars, south-central Iran), T. nakhchivanicus sp. n. (♂; Nakhchivan, Azerbaijan) and Zodarion sharurensis sp. n. (♂ ♀; Nakhchivan, Azerbaijan) are described as new, and the hitherto unknown male of Trygetus susianus Zamani & Marusik, 2021 is described based on topotype material from Khuzestan, southwestern Iran. Indozodion Ovtchinnikov, 2006 stat. rev. is rediagnosed and removed from the synonymy of Tropizodium Jocqué & Churchill, 2005, and here considered to comprise I. inayatullahi Ovtchinnikov, 2006 comb. rev. (type species) and I. lindbergi (Roewer, 1960) comb. n. (ex. Zodarion Walckenaer, 1826); the latter species, previously known only from Afghanistan, is redescribed and reported from Pakistan. One of the paratypes of I. lindbergi, reported as a subadult female in the original description, is found to be an adult female of Parazodarion raddei (Simon, 1889). An error in a previous publication (attributing figures of Acanthinozodium elburzicum Zamani & Marusik, 2021 to P. raddei) is also corrected here.

As well, a key is provided for identifying Gryllidae subfamilies in the Neotropical region. The status of Hemigryllinae stat. rev. is restored as a subfamily, which only includes Hemigryllus, previously considered a tribe within Eneopterinae until now. Hemigryllinae stat. rev. and Hemigryllus are also redescribed, including an updated key for the species. The status of Hemigryllus ortonii is discussed, with a historical review of known records, which may belong to different species, while Hemigryllus kriechbaumeri stat. rev. is revalidated as the type species of the genus. Two new species are described: Hemigryllus gorochovi sp. nov. and Hemigryllus ankeri sp. nov. Additional specimens are also recorded for Hemigryllus woronovi and Hemigryllus columbi, with a precise locality for the latter being reported for the first time. Finally, the placement of Hemigryllinae stat. rev. within Gryllidae is discussed, as well as its adaptations for digging and swimming for its species.

title: New and additional records of Anacroneuria Klapálek (Plecoptera: Insecta) from Tocantins state, Brazil

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Rippel, Mellis Layra Soares, Salles, Frederico Falcão, Fernandes, André Silva, Krolow, Tiago Kütter (2023): New and additional records of Anacroneuria Klapálek (Plecoptera: Insecta) from Tocantins state, Brazil. Zootaxa 5339 (4): 377-389, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5339.4.4, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5339.4.4AbstractIn this study we provide an updated list of Plecoptera based on recent collections covering areas from northern to southeastern Tocantins state, Brazil. It is the first work focused on the geographical distribution of the order in this region. Herein, we register Anacroneuria atrifrons Klapálek, 1922, Anacroneuria jaciara Bispo & Neves, 2005, Anacroneuria manauensis Ribeiro-Ferreira, 2001, and Anacroneuria terere Righi-Cavallaro & Lecci, 2010 for the first time to Tocantins with notes and illustrations of diagnostic features for these four species. Our work raises the number of stoneflies known from Tocantins to 13 species. Despite this increase in the number of species, we highlight the importance of expanding field collection efforts in different locations of the state, especially in the west and south regions, as well as increasing collection effort in each location, aiming for a better comprehension of this fauna.

title: Integrating museum collections and molecules reveals genus-level synonymy and new species in red devil spiders (Araneae, Dysderidae) from the Middle East and Central Asia

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Bellvert, Adrià, Dimitrov, Dragomir, Zamani, Alireza, Arnedo, Miquel A. (2024): Integrating museum collections and molecules reveals genus-level synonymy and new species in red devil spiders (Araneae, Dysderidae) from the Middle East and Central Asia. European Journal of Taxonomy 921 (210): 210-235, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2024.921.2429, URL: https://europeanjournaloftaxonomy.eu/index.php/ejt/article/download/2429/10759Abstract. This paper reviews little-known species of the dysderid spider genera Dysdera Latreille, 1804, and Dysderella Dunin, 1992 based on specimens collected in the Caucasus, Middle East, and Central Asia. After combining molecular phylogeny of five mitochondrial and three nuclear genes with morphological evidence, Dysderella is proposed as a junior synonym of Dysdera. In addition, three species are described as new to science: D. jaegeri Bellvert & Dimitrov sp. nov., D. naouelae Bellvert & Dimitrov sp. nov., and D. kourosh Bellvert, Zamani & Dimitrov sp. nov. Four combinations are proposed: Dysdera caspica Dunin, 1990 comb. rev., Dysdera transcaspica Dunin & Fet, 1985 comb. rev., Dysdera elburzica (Zamani, Marusik & Szűts, 2023) comb. nov. and Dysdera sancticedri (Brignoli, 1978) comb. nov. (ex. Dasumia Thorell, 1875). Furthermore, we report a first record of D. festai Caporiacco, 1929 in Turkey and its male cheliceral polymorphism. Our results illustrate the deficiencies that undermine the current taxonomy of this genus. For example, many species are described based on only one or few specimens or limited locality data. The advancements in DNA sequencing technologies applied to museum specimens reduce the need for fieldwork collection and export of fresh specimens. This highlights the significance of museum collections for improving research in this field.

A comprehensive examination of 260 specimens from India —including type material and additional specimens from institutional and private collections—confirms the presence of eight species in the country. This includes two new species, Cyphochilus kukriana Sreedevi, Sahoo & Sabatinelli, sp. nov. and C. pentaphysia Sreedevi, Sahoo & Sabatinelli, sp. nov., and the first Indian record of C. tenzingyatsoi Sabatinelli, 2020. The following synonymy is proposed: Cyphochilus niveosquamosus (Blanchard, 1851) = C. oberthueri Brenske, 1903. Based on the original descriptions and type localities, C. manipurensis Nonfried, 1893 and C. waterhousei Brenske, 1903 are also considered potentially referable to C. niveosquamosus. A systematic account, including detailed illustrations of the habitus and aedeagus for all species, along with an updated checklist of Indian Cyphochilus, is provided.

Zootaxa 5604 (3): 329-349, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5604.3.6, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5604.3.6AbstractThis study examines Paradoxosomatidae Daday, 1889 millipedes in Gujarat, India, focusing on taxonomic diversity, distribution patterns, and behaviours. It highlights a new species, Chondromorpha lakroda sp. nov., along with five known species. The study observed intriguing behaviours such as swarming, and escape mechanisms, indicating adaptive strategies for predator protection and resource acquisition. The discovery of C. lakroda sp. nov. in sandy loam soil near the river Sabarmati highlighted unique characteristics contributing to their survival and defensive capabilities. This study enhances our understanding of paradoxosomatid species distributions in Gujarat and emphasizes the ecological significance of millipedes as ancient soil invertebrates. Further research should thoroughly explore their diversity and ecological contributions in terrestrial ecosystems.

Zootaxa 5189 (1): 204-221, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5189.1.19AbstractChelidoperca barazeri Lee, Lee, Matsunuma & Chen, 2019 is redescribed based on two sub-adult types and 12 additional non-types specimens collected from the type locality and southwestern Taiwan, respectively. The identification of the additional specimens were supported by morphological and/or molecular approaches. C. barazeri is characterized by the following combination of characters: three scale rows between lateral line and base of 6th dorsal-fin spine; pored lateral-line scales 34‒37, modally 36; modally 2+7 developed gill rakers on the upper and lower limb; soft dorsal fin with series of large yellow spots; and the anal-fin with a yellow margin. C. barazeri is most similar to C. tosaensis and can be distinguished from C. tosaensis by: relatively less pored lateral line scales, 34‒37 (vs. 37‒43, modally 39); analfin without series of spot; penultimate and the last dorsal- and anal-fin rays in adult not elongated (vs. well elongated in adults); presence of a faint and discontinuous stripe formed by clusters of melanophores along the mid-lateral body when preserved (vs. without or very indistinct). Furthermore, six species of Chelidoperca are confirmed occurring in the Taiwanese water by literature reviews. A key to Chelidoperca from the Taiwanese water is provided.

title: Revision of the South American genera Andinocopris new genus and Homocopris Burmeister, 1846 (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae: Homocoprini new tribe)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Génier, François, Darling, James D. G. (2024): Revision of the South American genera Andinocopris new genus and Homocopris Burmeister, 1846 (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae: Homocoprini new tribe). European Journal of Taxonomy 925: 220-267, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2024.925.2465, URL: https://europeanjournaloftaxonomy.eu/index.php/ejt/article/download/2465/10955Abstract. Although initially described as a subgenus of Copris Geoffroy, 1762, Homocopris had long been treated as a junior synonym of Dichotomius Hope, 1838 (Martínez 1951) until it was reclassified as a distinct genus (Vaz-de-Mello et al. 2010). Herein, we revisit the taxonomy of Homocopris. In doing so: we describe two new species previously considered to represent the Brazilian population of Homocopris torulosus (Eschscholtz, 1822); revalidate Pinotus punctatissimus from synonymy under Homocopris torulosus and place it in Homocopris as had previously been done only informally (González et al. 2015; Rebolledo et al. 2017); recognize two new synonymies; and describe a new genus, Andinocopris gen. nov., which includes two former members of Homocopris. Presently, Homocopris includes four species: H. torulosus, H. punctatissimus (Curtis, 1845) comb. nov., H. grossiorum sp. nov. and H. williami sp. nov. Andinocopris includes A. achamas (Harold, 1867) gen. et comb. nov. and A. buckleyi (Waterhouse, 1891) gen. et comb. nov. Pinotus simulator Luederwaldt, 1936 is here considered a new junior synonym of Andinocopris buckleyi. An identification key to members of both genera is provided as well as images of diagnostic characters for all species. Finally, we discuss the placement of Andinocopris and Homocopris within Scarabaeinae and propose a new tribe, Homocoprini tribe nov., to include both genera.
