Abstract
A morphological review of the mantid genus Deroplatys Westwood, 1893 is presented. The type specimens of Deroplatys desiccata Westwood, 1839, D. trigonodera Westwood, 1889 and D. rhombica De Haan, 1842 are illustrated. The holotype of D. angustata Westwood, 1841 has been rediscovered in the NHM collection and the description of the external morphology and male genitalia are provided. Deroplatys horrifica Westwood, 1889 is now a new synonym of D. lobata (Guérin-Méneville, 1838). Three new species namely Deroplatys kinabaluensis sp. nov., Deroplatys nebula sp. nov. and Deroplatys xuzhengfai sp. nov. are described and illustrated. New identification keys were generated for both sexes. The distribution of the genus Deroplatys species is discussed and mapped.
Revision of the genus Deroplatys Westwood, 1839 (Mantodea: Deroplatyidae) with the description of three new species 螳螂科：Deroplatyidae 修订 Deroplatys Westwood 属，1839 年，描述三个新种
本文对螳螂属 Deroplatys Westwood, 1893 进行了形态学回顾。D. trigonodera Westwood, 1889 和 D. rhombica De Haan, 1842 的模式标本。angustata Westwood, 1841 的主模式已在国家卫生研究院的藏品中被重新发现，并提供了外部形态和雄性生殖器的描述。Deroplatys horrifica Westwood, 1889 现在是 D. lobata (Guérin-Méneville, 1838) 的新异名。描述了三个新种，即 Deroplatys kinabaluensis sp.并为雌雄两性生成了新的识别钥匙。讨论并绘制了Deroplatys属物种的分布图。
期刊介绍：
Zootaxa is a peer-reviewed international journal for rapid publication of high quality papers on any aspect of systematic zoology, with a preference for large taxonomic works such as monographs and revisions. Zootaxa considers papers on all animal taxa, both living and fossil, and especially encourages descriptions of new taxa. All types of taxonomic papers are considered, including theories and methods of systematics and phylogeny, taxonomic monographs, revisions and reviews, catalogues/checklists, biographies and bibliographies, identification guides, analysis of characters, phylogenetic relationships and zoogeographical patterns of distribution, descriptions of taxa, and nomenclature. Open access publishing option is strongly encouraged for authors with research grants and other funds. For those without grants/funds, all accepted manuscripts will be published but access is secured for subscribers only.
