ABSTRACT

@#We described a new species of cockroach, Periplaneta gajajimana sp. nov., which was collected in Gajajima, Kagoshima-gun Toshimamura, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan, on November 2012. The new species is characterized by its reddish brown to blackish brown body, smooth surface pronotum, well developed compound eyes, dark brown head apex, dark reddish brown front face and small white ocelli connected to the antennal sockets. In male, the tegmen tip reach the abdomen end or are slightly shorter, while in the female, it does not reach the abdominal end and exposes the abdomen beyond the 7th abdominal plate. We confirmed the validity of this new species by breeding the specimens in our laboratory to demonstrate that the features of the progeny were maintained for several generations. For comparison and easy identification of this new species, the key to species identification of the genus Periplaneta that had been reported in Japan to date are also presented.

ABSTRACT

The beetle family Throscidae is documented from Peru for the first time, based on specimens collected in the regions of Cajamarca, Junín, Loreto and Madre de Dios. Aulonothroscus tambopata new species is described from Madre de Dios. Also, three additional species of Aulonothroscus are reported from Peru for the first time - A. alvarengai Cobos new country record, A. freudi Cobos new country record, and A. oculatissimus Cobos new country record. A key separating these four species is given. This report is part of the "Beetles of Peru" project.


Se documenta por primera vez la familia de escarabajos Throscidae para el Perú, a partir de ejemplares recolectados en las regiones de Cajamarca, Junín, Loreto y Madre de Dios. Aulonothroscus tambopata sp. nov. se describe a partir de ejemplares recolectados en Madre de Dios. Igualmente, se reporta por primera vez para el Perú tres especies adicionales del género Aulonothroscus - A. alvarengai Cobos registro nuevo del país, A. freudi Cobos registro nuevo del país, A. oculatissimus Cobos registro nuevo del país y se presenta una clave que separa las cuatro especies. Este artículo forma parte del proyecto "Escarabajos del Perú.

ABSTRACT

A new species of Xenurobrycon isdescribed from tributaries of the rio Tapajós, Pará, Brazil. It is diagnosed from all congeners by the dark color of the posterior half of both caudal-fin lobes, the presence of infraorbitals one, two, and three, the presence of a set of lamellar processes on eighth principal caudal-fin ray of mature males, the presence of bony hooks similar in size or decreasing posteriorly on last unbranched and first 9-12 branched anal-fin rays of mature males, the presence of only conical teeth on both jaws, the lack of the adipose fin and the presence of 15-18 predorsal scales. The description of the new species increases the number of species in Xenurobrycon to six. An updated key to the species of the genus is provided.


Uma espécie nova de Xenurobrycon édescrita de tributários do rio Tapajós, Pará, Brasil. Esta é diagnosticada de todas as congêneres pela coloração escura da metade posterior de ambos os lobos da nadadeira caudal, pela presença dos infraorbitais um, dois e três, pela presença de um conjunto de processos laminares no oitavo raio principal do lobo inferior da nadadeira caudal em machos maduros, pela presença de ganchos no último raio indiviso e primeiros 9-12 raios ramificados da nadadeira anal em machos maduros, estes com tamanho similar ou diminuindo de tamanho posteriormente, pela presença de apenas dentes cônicos nas maxilas, pela ausência de nadadeira adiposa e pela presença de 15-18 escamas pré-dorsais. A descrição da espécie novaaumenta o número de espécies em Xenurobrycon para seis. Uma chave atualizada para as espécies do gênero é fornecida.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACTHere we describe seven new species of Limnophora from Ecuador: Limnophora bifasciatasp. nov. from Napo, Quito; Limnophora equatoriensissp. nov. from Zamora-Chinchipe, Zamora; Limnophora femurosetalissp. nov. from Zamora-Chinchipe, Zamora; Limnophora lamasisp. nov. from Zamora-Chinchipe, Zamora; Limnophora longivittatasp. nov. from Napo, Quito; Limnophora penaisp. nov. from Azuay, Cuenca and Limnophora polletisp. nov. from Napo, Quito. We provide an identification key for the ten recognized species of Limnophora from Ecuador, including L. marginata Stein, 1904, L. pica(Macquart, 1851) and L. saeva (Wiedemann, 1830). We also redescribed Limnophora marginata Stein, 1904, and designated designed lectotype male and paralectotypes males and females of the species.

ABSTRACT

The Anthomyiidae (Diptera) are known from about 1,100 species mostly occurring in temperate to arctic areas in the northern hemisphere. Few species have been reported from the Australasian and Oceanian Regions. New Caledonia, located in Melanesia, in the southwest Pacific Ocean, is well known for its high diversity, endemism and large number of unknown species. Specimens of Anthomyia Meigen from New Caledonia were found at the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle (Paris) collection. The species was identified as A. medialis Colless, and represents the first record of Anthomyiidae from the island. A key to the Anthomyia species occurring in these regions is presented, as well as illustrations of the male terminalia of A. medialis.


São conhecidas cerca de 1.100 espécies de Anthomyiidae (Diptera) ocorrendo principalmente em áreas temperadas e árticas no hemisfério norte. Poucas espécies têm sido relatadas nas regiões da Australásia e Oceania. Nova Caledônia, localizada na Melanésia, no sudoeste do Oceano Pacífico, é bem conhecida por sua alta diversidade, endemismo e grande número de espécies desconhecidas. Espécimes de Anthomyia Meigen da Nova Caledônia foram encontrados na coleção do "Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle" (Paris). A espécie foi identificada como A. medialis Colless, sendo este o primeiro registro de Anthomyiidae da ilha. Chave de identificação para as espécies de Anthomyia ocorrentes nessas regiões é apresentada, bem como ilustrações da terminália masculina de A. medialis.
