title: Ordovician Petraster Billings, 1858 (Asteroidea: Echinodermata) and early asteroid skeletal differentiation

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Blake, Daniel B., Lefebvre, Bertrand (2024): Ordovician Petraster Billings, 1858 (Asteroidea: Echinodermata) and early asteroid skeletal differentiation. Comptes Rendus Palevol 23 (17): 217-239, DOI: 10.5852/cr-palevol2024v23a17, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5852/cr-palevol2024v23a17ABSTRACTA large and taxonomically diverse collection of Ordovician Asterozoa from France and Morocco enables new insights into the early evolution of the subphylum. Available specimens of both Asteroidea and Stenuroidea are comparatively few, the collection dominated by Ophiuroidea and to a lesser extent, Somasteroidea. Nearly all the asteroid specimens are assigned to Petraster Billings, 1858; P. caidramiensis n. sp. is differentiated based on the complexity of the extraxial skeleton. The genus Petraster is reviewed. Another asteroid fragment, Euaxosida sp. A, is too incomplete to assign below the ordinal level. Among species of Petraster, the extraxial skeleton suggests homoplastic emergence of ossicular series definition whereas evolution of ambulacral axial-adaxial series expressions was conservative. The stemward asteroid axial/adaxial configuration is considered largely a plesiomorphic derivative of the somasteroid condition. Ossicular details of all series, however, differ among Petraster species. Euaxosida sp. A also offers oral-surface expressions suggestive of a transitional status. Differences among ossicular series expressions exemplify concerns surrounding interpretation of early asterozoan phylogeny and taxonomy.

title: Delimitation of the widely distributed Palearctic Stenodema species (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Miridae): insights from molecular and morphological data

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Namyatova, Anna A., Dzhelali, Polina A., Konstantinov, Fedor V. (2024): Delimitation of the widely distributed Palearctic Stenodema species (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Miridae): insights from molecular and morphological data. ZooKeys 1209: 245-294, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1209.124766AbstractSpecies delimitation presents a significant challenge in biology, particularly in systematics. Here, an integrative approach is employed to assess the species boundaries of widely distributed Palearctic Stenodema species. Due to their diversity, wide distribution, and the absence of comprehensive morphological and molecular data for most species, revising Stenodema is both daunting and time-consuming. Our study focuses on detailed examinations of male and female genitalia, coupled with phylogenetic analyses based on two mitochondrial markers (cytochrome c oxidase subunit I and 16 S rRNA) and species delimitation analyses. Eight species with wide distributions are reviewed, Stenodema trispinosa Reuter, 1904 is synonymized with S. pilosa (Jakovlev, 1889), and a lectotype for Stenodema turanica Reuter, 1904 is designated. Morphological and molecular data effectively distinguish all species, revealing distinct clades and relationships. Notably, S. calcarata and S. pilosa form a well-supported clade, while S. virens and S. turanica share a lineage with Nearctic species. Stenodema rubrinervis and S. sibirica are morphologically similar and form a distinct clade in all phylogenies. Species delimitation analyses confirm the separation of all studied species, and genetic distances suggest the potential existence of cryptic species within S. calcarata and S. pilosa. This study highlights the advantages of integrative taxonomy in delimiting species with intricate and relatively recent phylogeographic histories.

(ochoai species group) from Lecanomerus niger (Harpalini); E. tripodus sp. nov. (ochoai species group) from Notolestus sulcipennis (Pterostichini); E. vepreculus sp. nov. (leytei species group) from Coleolissus papua (Harpalini); and E. walteri sp. nov. (myzus species group) from Chlaenius ophonoides (Chlaeniini). Keys to the world genera of Podapolipidae and to the Australian species of Eutarsopolipus are provided. We further reviewed the world distribution of Eutarsopolipus species groups and postulated that the Australian representatives could be classified into two distinct faunas: a putatively Gondwanan fauna represented mainly by the ochoai species group and a more recent Laurasian fauna represented by just a few species in the myzus and acanthomus species groups.

title: Genomic-Phenomic Reciprocal Illumination: Desyopone hereon gen. et sp. nov., an Exceptional Aneuretine-like Fossil Ant from Ethiopian Amber (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Ponerinae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Boudinot, Brendon E., Richter, Adrian K., Hammel, Jörg U., Szwedo, Jacek, Bojarski, Błażej, Perrichot, Vincent (2022): Genomic-Phenomic Reciprocal Illumination: Desyopone hereon gen. et sp. nov., an Exceptional Aneuretine-like Fossil Ant from Ethiopian Amber (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Ponerinae). Insects 73 (796): 1-19, DOI: 10.3390/insects13090796, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/insects13090796Abstract: Fossils are critical for understanding the evolutionary diversification, turnover, and morphological disparification of extant lineages. While fossils cannot be sequenced, phenome-scale data may be generated using micro-computed tomography (µ- CT), thus revealing hidden structures and internal anatomy, when preserved. Here, we adduce the male caste of a new fossil ant species from Miocene Ethiopian amber that resembles members of the Aneuretinae, matching the operational definition of the subfamily. Through the use of synchrotron radiation for µ- CT, we critically test the aneuretine-identity hypothesis. Our results indicate that the new fossils do not belong to the Aneuretinae, but rather the Ponerini (Ponerinae). Informed by recent phylogenomic studies, we were able to place the fossils close to the extant genus Cryptopone based on logical character analysis, with the two uniquely sharing absence of the subpetiolar process among all ponerine genera. Consequently, we: (1) revise the male-based key to the global ant subfamilies; (2) revise the definitions of Aneuretinae, Ponerinae, Platythyreini, and Ponerini; (3) discuss the evolution of ant mandibles; and (4) describe the fossils as † Desyopone hereon gen. et sp. nov. Our study highlights the value of males for ant systematics and the tremendous potential of phenomic imaging technologies for the study of ant evolution.

Zootaxa 5093 (3): 251-295, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5093.3.1AbstractHere we present a survey of the Trogolaphysa fauna of the Brazilian Amazon, including five new species: T. amazoccidentalensis sp. nov., T. nigrocephala sp. nov., T. nigrolineata sp. nov., T. pseudomaculata sp. nov., and T. quinquedentomucronata sp. nov. The new species resemble each other in having 3 macrochaetae in the p3 complex (except for T. amazoccidentalensis sp. nov. with 5) on the second thoracic segment, but differ from each other in color pattern, head chaetotaxy, empodial complex morphology, and number of mucronal teeth. In addition to describing the new species, we describe for the first time diagnostic chaetotaxy features on the antennae, femurs I– III and tibiotarsus. We also provide a description of the dorsal chaetotaxy of the first instar of T. nigrolineata sp. nov., including a comparison with T. jataca (Wray) and T. paracarpenteri Soto-Adames. An identification key to the Brazilian species of Trogolaphysa is provided. This is the first record of nominal species of Trogolaphysa for Northern Brazil and now the number of species endemic to Brazil increases from 8 to 13.

title: Stromatolinea, a new diatrypaceous fungal genus (Ascomycota, Sordariomycetes, Xylariales, Diatrypaceae) from China

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Habib, Kamran, Zhou, Xin, Zeng, Wenyu, Zhang, Xu, Hu, Hongmin, Wu, Qianzhen, Liu, Lili, Lin, Yan, Shen, Xiangchun, Kang, Jichuan, Li, Qirui (2024): Stromatolinea, a new diatrypaceous fungal genus (Ascomycota, Sordariomycetes, Xylariales, Diatrypaceae) from China. MycoKeys 108: 197-225, DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.108.126712AbstractMolecular phylogeny and morphological characteristics of collections of diatrypaceous fungi from Guizhou Province, China, lead to the establishment of a new genus, Stromatolinea, and the identification of four new species and two new combinations. The taxa were found growing on the dead culms of Phyllostachys bamboo. The new genus is distinguished by its well-developed, discrete linear stromata with yellow interior tissue and allantoid subhyaline ascospores. The newly described species are Stromatolinea grisea, S. guizhouensis, S. hydei, and S. xishuiensis. Additionally, two new combinations, Stromatolinea linearis and S. phaselina, are proposed based on comparative analysis and morphology. Phylogenetic analyses were conducted using ITS and TUB 2 sequences. The study includes comprehensive morphological descriptions, illustrations, and a phylogenetic tree depicting the placement of the new taxa.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Periasamy, Rengaiyan, Kurian, Palayil John, Ingole, Baban (2025): Deep-sea corals from the seamounts of Central and Southwest Indian Ridges. Zootaxa 5620 (2): 278-294, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5620.2.4, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5620.2.4AbstractDeep-sea coral biodiversity and abundance have been used to indicate the overall health of the deep-sea benthic ecosystem and its capacity for supporting life. The growing interest in the mineral-rich environments of the Indian Ocean Ridge system brings the necessity of a more complete understanding of the deep-sea benthic ecosystems. Baseline studies conducted in potential mineral exploration areas have identified seven deep-sea coral species in the Central Indian Ridge (CIR) and the Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR). In the present study, these species, including one Crypthelia, were identified, with the other six representing significant range extensions. The hydrozoan Pseudocrypthelia apoma Cairns, 2015, is recorded for the first time in the Indian Ocean, and five anthozoans are reported as new records for this region. Among these, three belong to the class Hexacorallia: Caryophyllia ephyala (Alcock, 1891), Trochocyathus patelliformis (Cairns, 1999), and Deltocyathus cameratus (Cairns, 1999). The other two species are the Octocorallia Callozostron mirabile (Wright, 1885) and Faxiella delicatula (Thomson & Rennett 1931). These species were sampled on seamounts formed by ultramafic mantle and basalts near polymetallic sulfide areas of CIR and SWIR. These findings contribute to the knowledge of deep-sea coral diversity from the CIR and abyssal SWIR.

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Lukhtanov, Vladimir A., Makhov, Ilya A., Gagarina, Anastasia V., Romanovich, Anna E. (2025): Taxonomy of the West Palaearctic butterfly genus Palaeophilotes Forster, 1938 (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) based on combined analysis of COI barcodes and multilocus nuclear markers. Zootaxa 5584 (4): 570-580, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5584.4.8, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5584.4.8AbstractBased on molecular phylogenetic analysis of all relevant taxa, we propose to consider the species previously classified as members of Pseudophilotes, Palaeophilotes, Rubrapterus, and Inderskia as belonging to a single genus, the valid name of which is Palaeophilotes. This genus can be divided into two subgenera: Rubrapterus with species P. bavius and P. fatma, and Palaeophilotes sensu stricto. The latter subgenus includes four lineages and nine species: (1) the P. abencerragus lineage (single species P. abencerragus), (2) P. barbagiae lineage (single species P. barbagiae), (3) P. panope lineage (P. panope and P. triphysina), and (4) P. baton lineage (P. panoptes, P. baton, P. vicrama, P. jacuticus and P. sinaicus). The name Borisinia Korb, 2013, syn. nov. is shown to be an objective synonym of Palaeophilotes Forster, 1938. The previously proposed synonymy of P. svetlana and P. marina with P. panope is supported by the identity of their DNA-barcodes. Palaeophilotes panope is reported for the Kazakhstan part of the Altai mountains for the first time. Palaeophilotes jacuticus is confirmed for the Lake Baikal region in Siberia.

(2025): Sansevieria bangalalana sp. nov. (Asparagales, Asparagaceae), close to extinction in the wild, and five other narrowly endemic and threatened species of Sansevieria from Tanzania previously unknown to science. European Journal of Taxonomy 1026: 65-106, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2025.1026.3113, URL: https://europeanjournaloftaxonomy.eu/index.php/ejt/article/download/3113/13881Abstract. Six new species of Sansevieria are described from several regions of Tanzania, a country believed to harbour the highest diversity of Sansevieria species globally. Among these, Sansevieria bangalalana sp. nov. and S. chlorantha sp. nov. occur in the North Pare Mountains region in northeastern Tanzania. Our data indicates that both species are close to extinction now. They have only been found in two and one location, respectively. Sansevieria bangalalana has a unique combination of flower and leaf features that sets it apart from all other species in the genus. Sansevieria embere sp. nov. is solely occurring in a pocket of succulent vegetation within the city limits of Arusha, where our data indicates that it is critically endangered, too. This species and S. chlorantha have unbranched elongate inflorescences (subgenus Sansevieria), while S. bangalalana and the other three species have capitate inflorescences (subgenus Capitulatus). Of the latter, S. muhaensis sp. nov. was found in a restricted area close to the city limits of Kigoma in W Tanzania, where it is critically endangered as well according to our data. Sansevieria rukwana sp. nov. and S. sumbawangana sp. nov. occur in the wider Lake Rukwa Region of SW Tanzania. Their threat status is EN according to our data. The factors most threatening these plants altogether are construction works of roads and houses, and agricultural expansion.
