Abstract

Based on collaborative work of a French-Ethiopian team, we investigated the diversity and distribution of Ethiopian trechine beetles (Carabidae, Trechini), in the sub-alpine and afro-alpine ecosystems. Four new genera, three new subgenera and eighteen new species are described from Ethiopian Highland environments: Trechus (Abyssinotus) subgen. nov. (type species: salomon sp. nov.) and Trechus (Abyssinotus) sabae sp. nov. (Mount Choke, Amhara), Trechus (s. str.) lalibelae sp. nov. (Abuna Yusef Mountains, Amhara), T. (s. str.) habeshaicus sp. nov. (Menz-Guassa Plateau, Amhara), Trechus (s. str.) kosso sp. nov. (Bale Mountains, Oromia), Deuveopsis gen. nov. (type species: lobeliae sp. nov.) (Mount Choke, Amhara), Deuveopsis (Abayopsis) subgen. nov. (type species: basilewskianus Geginat, 2008) (Mount Choke, Amhara), Aethiopsis gen. nov. (type species: chioriae sp. nov.) (Abuna Yusef Mountains, Amhara), Aethiopsis abunaensis sp. nov. (Abuna Yusef Mountains, Amhara), Aethiopsis wolloi sp. nov. (Abuna Yusef Mountains, Amhara), Aethiopsis lastaensis sp. nov. (Abuna Yusef Mountains, Amhara), Aethiopsis meneliki sp. nov. (Delanta Mountains, Amhara), Aethiopsis delantae sp. nov. (Delanta Mountains, Amhara), Aethiopsis guassaensis sp. nov. (Menz-Guassa Plateau, Amhara), Afrotrechus gen. nov. (type species: afroalpinus sp. nov.) (Mount Choke, Amhara), Afrotrechus abyssinicus sp. nov. (Mount Choke, Amhara), Afrotrechus (Abyssiniopsis) subgen. nov. (type species: amharicus (Ortuño and Novoa, 2011) comb. nov.) (Mount Choke, Amhara), Afrotrechus (Abyssiniopsis) bunae sp. nov. (Belleta Forest, Oromia), Nilotrechus gen. nov. (type species: reebae sp. nov.) (Mount Choke, Amhara), Nilotrechus niloticus sp. nov. (Mount Choke, Amhara). New data and informations are provided for previously described species: Trechus (A.) dimorphicus Pawlowski, 2001 comb. nov., Trechus (A.) chokensis Pawlowski, 2001 comb. nov., Trechus (A.) gigas Pawlowski, 2001 comb.nov., and Trechus (s. str.) bipartitus Raffray, 1885, sublaevis Raffray, 1885 and aethiopicus Alluaud, 1918. The putative phylogenetic affinities of the different genera are discussed. Considerations about microspeciation and endemism on Mount Choke are proposed.

埃塞俄比亚山地地面甲虫的生物多样性研究:非洲高山和亚高山Trechini的分类研究(鞘翅目:步甲科:Trechinae)

基于法国-埃塞俄比亚团队的合作工作，我们调查了亚高山和非洲高山生态系统中埃塞俄比亚锥虫(Carabidae, Trechini)的多样性和分布。描述了埃塞俄比亚高原环境中4个新属、3个新亚属和18个新种:深沟蝗亚属。11 .(模式种:salomon sp. 11 .)、Trechus (abyssintus) sabae sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉斯克鲁姆山)、Trechus (s. str.) lalibelae sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉斯纳尤瑟夫山)、T. (s. str.) habeshaicus sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉斯门兹-瓜萨高原)、Trechus (s. str.) kosso sp. 11 .(奥罗米亚贝尔山)、Deuveopsis gen. 11 .(模式种:lobeliae sp. 11 .)(阿姆哈拉斯克鲁姆山)、Deuveopsis (Abayopsis)亚属。11月(模式种:basilewskianus Geginat, 2008) (Mount Choke, Amhara)， Aethiopsis gen. 11月(模式种:chioriae sp. 11 .)(阿姆哈拉的Abuna Yusef山脉)、Aethiopsis abunaensis sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉的Abuna Yusef山脉)、Aethiopsis wolloi sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉的Abuna Yusef山脉)、Aethiopsis lastaensis sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉的Abuna Yusef山脉)、Aethiopsis meneliki sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉的Delanta山脉)、Aethiopsis delantae sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉的Delanta山脉)、Aethiopsis guassaensis sp. 11 .(阿姆哈拉的Menz-Guassa高原)、Afrotrechus gen. 11 .(模式种:afroalpinus sp. 11) (Mount Choke, Amhara)， Afrotrechus abyssinicus sp. 11 (Mount Choke, Amhara)， Afrotrechus (Abyssiniopsis)亚属。11 .(类型种:amharicus (Ortuño and Novoa, 2011)梳子。11月)(阿姆哈拉斯克鲁山)，Afrotrechus (Abyssiniopsis) bunae sp. 11月(奥罗米亚Belleta森林)，Nilotrechus gen. 11月(模式种:reebae sp. 11月)(阿姆哈拉斯克鲁山)，Nilotrechus niloticus sp. 11月(阿姆哈拉斯克鲁山)。为以前描述的物种提供了新的数据和信息:Trechus (A.) dimorphicus Pawlowski, 2001 comb。11 .中华绒螟(A.)， 200111月，崔克斯(A.)，波洛夫斯基，2001梳。11月。和Trechus (s.str .) bipartitus Raffray, 1885, subblaevis Raffray, 1885和aethiopicus Alluaud, 1918。讨论了不同属的系统发育亲缘关系。对呛山的微种形成和特有现象提出了考虑。
