title: Taxonomic revision of the genus Penia Laporte (Coleoptera, Elateridae, Dendrometrinae) from Taiwan

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Arimoto, Kôichi (2023): Taxonomic revision of the genus Penia Laporte (Coleoptera, Elateridae, Dendrometrinae) from Taiwan. Zootaxa 5375 (3): 301-335, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5375.3.1, URL: https://mapress.com/zt/article/download/zootaxa.5375.3.1/52332AbstractThe genus Penia Laporte, 1838 (tribe Dimini Candèze, 1863, subfamily Dendrometrinae Gistel, 1848) has three known endemic species from Taiwan. However, little is still known about these species and their important features, including genitalia. Here, the taxonomy of Taiwanese Penia is revised and eight species are confirmed: Penia alishanensis sp. nov., P. babai Kishii, 1994, P. elongata sp. nov., P. inopinata sp. nov., P. pulla sp. nov., P. smetanai Schimmel, 1996, P. takasago Kishii, 1997, and P. tsou sp. nov. The paratype of P. takasago is a different species and the species is described as P. inopinata. Three species have elongated bodies (P. alishanensis, P. elongata, and P. smetanai), whereas the other five have broad bodies. The eight species are distinguished from each other by the sizes of the eyes and apical maxillary palpomeres, the lengths of antennae and elytra, the relative length of the basal antennomeres, the degree of development of the mesosternal process between mesocoxae, and the shapes of the pronotum, hypomeron, scutellar shield and abdominal ventrite V. A key to all species in Taiwan is provided.

The genus Synnevrus is restored from synonymy. Synnevrus arabicus (Gadallah & Edmardash, 2023), Synnevrus barrei (Radoszkowski, 1893), and Synnevrus ohli Schmid-Egger, 2011, are transferred from Nysson to Synnevrus. Synnevrus barrei and S. ohli are recorded for the first time for the fauna of Oman and Saudi Arabia.

Four new genera are proposed to accommodate species with unique characters, namely Cuspicera gen. nov. for two species, C. luxoria spec. nov. (typus generis) and C. alata sp. nov., Kaindiagraecia gen. nov. for K. bilobata sp. nov., Glennagraecia gen. nov. for G. curvata sp. nov. and Angustocera gen. nov. for A. plana sp. nov. All data are based on specimens found in historical museum collections in Europe and North America.

These species are described and illustrated herein, with identification keys based on external morphology and male genitalia provided. Particular attention is paid to similarities and dissimilarities between N. chalcotechna and N. tristrigella.

Zootaxa 5314 (1): 1-62, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5314.1.1, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1094/PDIS-04-22-0755-PDNAbstractHere we provide an illustrated and annotated checklist of brachyuran crabs associated with shallow water marine habitats (nearshore rubble and subtidal) in Barbados, West Indies (13.1939°N, 59.5432°W). Twenty-one (21) survey sites in nearshore rubble and shallow subtidal habitats were surveyed between October 2018 to September 2021. Nearshore rubble habitats were surveyed at low tide during the day and night periods. Shallow nearshore subtidal habitats were surveyed every 9–12 days from February to October 2019 using crab traps placed ~ 4 m deep on sandy and rocky bottoms. A total of 1,640 specimens were recorded, belonging to nine (9) superfamilies, 14 families, 34 genera, and 44 species. The genera Charybdis De Haan, 1833, Pitho Bell, 1835, Thoe Bell, 1835, and Uhlias Stimpson, 1871 are here reported for the first time for Barbados. Thirteen (13) species are first records for Barbados, thus extending their geographic range. The most abundant and widespread species collected was Mithraculus coryphe Herbst, 1801, which accounted for 35% (N = 570) of the specimens, occurring in both nearshore rubble and subtidal habitats.

title: Blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) of the Baja California Peninsula

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Stotelmyre, Lyle Magee (2024): Blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) of the Baja California Peninsula. Zootaxa 5468 (2): 308-330, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5468.2.4, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5468.2.4AbstractThe blow fly fauna of the Baja California peninsula, Mexico has been sparsely documented. This study incorporates and lists recent and historical records of blow flies from collecting trips throughout the peninsula, visits to major southern California museums for historical collection records, and a literature search. Seven genera and 16 species are reported from the two peninsular Mexican States, Baja California, and Baja California Sur. Three species are recorded that are not included in the 2020 Catalog of Mexican Calliphoridae by Jaume-Schinkel, & Ibanez-Bernal (2020), they are: Calliphora livida, Calliphora terraenovae, and Calliphora vomitoria. One blow fly species, Cochliomyia hominivorax (the primary Screw-Worm Fly) is not included here but is found in museum collections. Once present in Baja, it is considered eradicated from continental North America as far south as the Panama Canal by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) however, it is occasionally reintroduced (Skoda et al. 2018) and is still present in some Caribbean islands. It is noteworthy that all calliphorid species from this mountainous desert peninsula are also found in the State of California, USA which supports 11 genera and 47 species in this family (Whitworth 2006) primarily because of its more varied climate and terrain. The Baja peninsula can be considered a southern extension of the State of California, with reduced species representation due to reduced climate and terrain variation, so no separate identification keys are necessary. Forensic entomologists and taxonomists can use the blow fly keys for North America by Whitworth, 2006, and 2017 for this region. The latest key by Jones, Whitworth, and Marshall (2019) is revolutionary and much welcome in taxonomy in that it is an online computeraided key that has actual macro-photos of species identification characters and is intended to be used with a computer screen next to your microscope for identifications in place of printed material.

title: Review of the genus Scolopostethus Fieber, 1860 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Rhyparochromidae) from Central Asia with description of a new species

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Neimorovets, Vladimir V. (2024): Review of the genus Scolopostethus Fieber, 1860 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Rhyparochromidae) from Central Asia with description of a new species. Zootaxa 5477 (4): 401-435, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5477.4.1, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5477.4.1AbstractPrior to this study, five species of the genus Scolopostethus Fieber, 1860 were documented from Central Asia. Thorough examination of the collection retained at the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (St. Petersburg), resulted in the description of a new species from this region, S. ferganensis sp. n. Earlier distributional records of S. affinis (Schilling, 1829) from Central Asia were demonstrated to be the result of misidentifications. An illustrated key, diagnoses, and data on distribution are provided for all five species of the genus Scolopostethus found in Central Asia.
