Abstract
Eunanus Ohaus, 1909 has so far been known exclusively from Argentina and Paraguay, with only two described species: E. murinus Ohaus, 1909 and E. podtiaguini Gutiérrez, 1951. Here, the genus is revised and redefined, and two new species are described from Brazil: Eunanus kozlovisp. nov., from Mato Grosso do Sul state, and Eunanus valmorbidaisp. nov., from Rio Grande do Sul state. Furthermore, Leucothyreus beckeri (Martínez, 1964) is transferred to the genus under the new combination Eunanus beckeri (Martínez, 1964) comb. nov. The lectotype of E. murinus Ohaus, 1909 is designated, and an identification key to all the species and a distribution map are provided.
期刊介绍:
Austral Entomology is a scientific journal of entomology for the Southern Hemisphere. It publishes Original Articles that are peer-reviewed research papers from the study of the behaviour, biology, biosystematics, conservation biology, ecology, evolution, forensic and medical entomology, molecular biology, public health, urban entomology, physiology and the use and control of insects, arachnids and myriapods. The journal also publishes Reviews on research and theory or commentaries on current areas of research, innovation or rapid development likely to be of broad interest – these may be submitted or invited. Book Reviews will also be considered provided the works are of global significance. Manuscripts from authors in the Northern Hemisphere are encouraged provided that the research has relevance to or broad readership within the Southern Hemisphere. All submissions are peer-reviewed by at least two referees expert in the field of the submitted paper. Special issues are encouraged; please contact the Chief Editor for further information.
