Abstract
ABSTRACT: Macromotettixoides angustivertex Zha & Peng sp. nov. and M. hainanensis (Liang) (= Hyboella hainanensis Liang), collected from Hainan Island, PR China, are described, photographed and compared with their allies. Based on the morphological characters of the two species, generic characteristics of the genus Macromotettixoides are updated. Pseudomacromotettix taiwanensis Zheng, Li & Lin, syn. nov. is synonymized with M. taiwanensis (Liang) (= Hyboella taiwanensis Liang), and the monotypic Pseudomacromotettix Zheng, Li & Lin, syn. gen. is synonymized with Macromotettixoides Zheng, Wei & Jiang. We also give ecological information for the two described species.
期刊介绍:
Contributions are accepted on any of the aspects of systematics and taxonomy of insects. This includes: taxonomic revisions, phylogenetics, biogeography and faunistics, and descriptive morphology of insects. Taxonomic papers describing single species are acceptable if such a study is sufficiently justified, however, comprehensive studies that provide a comparative, integrated study of insect systematics and taxonomy will get priority.
