Abstract
ABSTRACT The genus Austrotinodes Schmid, 1955 has about 70 species described, being largely distributed in the Neotropics and with a few species from the southern USA and Australia. In Brazil, 27 species have been recorded, mainly in the Southeast Region. Herein, we describe and illustrate a new species of Austrotinodes from Rio de Janeiro State. Austrotinodes morumbeca sp. nov. is recognized mainly by the intermediate appendages, which have the apical half smoothly curved dorsally and with about 10 stout spines mesoventrally, plus a single apical spine. We also provide a commented checklist and distributional map of Austrotinodes species from Rio de Janeiro, raising the number of species known for the state to nine. This work helps to reduce the ‘Wallacean’ and ‘Linnean’ shortfalls by filling knowledge gaps about Austrotinodes in the state of Rio de Janeiro and in the Atlantic Forest. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:1BC209F3-7EAE-4EBB-BDBA-DD353D95D68C.
期刊介绍:
There is still a far from complete understanding of the complex ecosystems in the Neotropics, although they have been studied since the first expeditions of the old world naturalists Marcgrave, Humboldt, Spix, Darwin, Bates and Müller. The aims and scope of the Journal are, besides taxonomic and zoogeographic surveys, analyses of animal communities and their relationship with biotic and abiotic environmental conditions. This includes the fauna of both terrestrial and fresh water ecosystems in the Neotropics. Contributions that represent original research and mini-reviews are welcome.
Manuscripts presenting just checklists and new geographic records are not considered for publication.
If manuscripts do not meet the requirements of the journal, the editors reserve the right to reject manuscripts on submission or to ask for revisions prior to formal peer review.
