The taxonomic complexity of Sorex species is largely due to their morphological similarity. The different approaches used in taxonomic studies have both advantages and disadvantages. In this study, Sorex volnuchini, Sorex raddei and Sorex satunini specimens were compared using morphological features (molar teeth), mechanical potential (bite force), linear morphometric and geometric morphometric analysis. No pigmentation was detected in the hypoconic region of the first upper molar in the samples of S. volnuchini. In contrast, the pigmentation in the hypoconic region showed variability in the samples of S. raddei and S. satunini. In linear morphometric analyses, the linear measurement results of craniodental and mandibular characters for S. raddei and S. satunini overlapped many characters. However, regarding linear measurements, S. volnuchini was separated from these species (p < 0.01). Based on both linear morphometrics and centroid size (geometric morphometrics), it was determined that S. volnuchini was smaller than other the Sorex species, and similarly, it was also determined that S. volnuchini had a lower bite force (mechanical potential) than other Sorex species. There was no correlation between bite force and centroid size (CS) within the species. However, pairwise comparisons determined a statistically significant difference among the species. The Jackknifed classification rate was over 92 % in linear morphometric analysis. As a result of geometric morphometric analysis, the order of the centroid size for the skull (ventral and dorsal) and the mandible was Neomys milleri > S. raddei > S. satunini > Sorex volncuhini. No significant difference was found between S. raddei and S. satunini in centroid size for only dorsal skull. Allometric growth, which varies in shape with size, was not observed in the skull (ventral and dorsal) and mandible. N. milleri, S. raddei, S. satunini and S. volnuchini differed according to the Procrustes and Mahalanobis distance (p < 0.05). Three dendrograms of morphological (ventral and dorsal skull, mandible) proximity showed a similar topology.
种类分类的复杂性主要是由于它们形态上的相似性。分类学研究中使用的不同方法既有优点也有缺点。本研究对volnuchini Sorex、raddei Sorex和satunini Sorex标本进行形态学特征(臼齿)、力学势(咬合力)、线性形态计量学和几何形态计量学分析。第1上磨牙下锥区未见色素沉着。相比之下,下锥区色素沉着在拉氏和萨图尼样品中表现出差异。在线性形态计量学分析中,拉氏牙颌特征与沙氏牙颌特征的线性测量结果有很多重叠。然而,在线性测量中,volnuchini从这些物种中分离出来(p < 0.01)。基于线性形态测量和质心大小(几何形态测量),确定了S. volnuchini比其他Sorex物种小,同样,也确定了S. volnuchini比其他Sorex物种具有更低的咬合力(机械势)。咬合力与质心大小(CS)之间没有相关性。然而,两两比较确定了物种之间的统计学显著差异。线性形态计量学分析Jackknifed分类率达92%以上。经几何形态计量学分析,颅骨(腹侧和背侧)和下颌骨的形心大小顺序为Neomys milleri >; S. raddei >; S. satunini > Sorex volncuhini。在背颅骨的质心大小上,雷氏鼠与沙氏鼠无显著差异。在颅骨(腹侧和背侧)和下颌骨未观察到形状随大小变化的异速生长。milleri、S. raddei、S. satunini和S. volnuchini在Procrustes和Mahalanobis距离上存在差异(p < 0.05)。三个形态学上的树突图(颅腹和背侧,下颌骨)接近显示出相似的拓扑结构。

Species is the cornerstone of biology because it serves as the basis for all other branches of this science, being the “elementary particle” of biota and the fundamental unit of biological classification. The accuracy of species attribution, as an indicator of the source data quality, directly affects the validity of experimental and analytical studies. Errors in taxonomic identification not only distort the biodiversity signification, but can also impede a clear understanding of evolutionary, ecological and physiological signals and traits. To improve the reliability of species identification and more accurately define species boundaries in the Baikal-endemic genus Codonobdella, we integrated DNA barcoding data into a bioinformatic pipeline and then applied reflexive search for subtleties in distinguishing phylogenetic species detected by molecular delimitation. As a result, the type species of the genus split up into three phylogenetic species, corresponding to the then-current diagnosis of Codonobdella truncata. However, species specific genetic, morphological, parasitological and distribution features allowed us to discover new species, Codonobdella rufulus sp. nov. and Codonobdella tenebris sp. nov.; to refine the description of C. truncata; and to derive traditional classification keys supplemented by DNA barcodes. Overall, our study reinforces the idea on “cryptic species” as a temporary status for understudied species.
物种是生物学的基石,因为它是这门科学所有其他分支的基础,是生物群的“基本粒子”和生物分类的基本单位。物种归属的准确性作为源数据质量的一个指标,直接影响实验和分析研究的有效性。分类鉴定的错误不仅扭曲了生物多样性的意义,而且阻碍了对进化、生态和生理信号和性状的清晰认识。为了提高物种鉴定的可靠性,更准确地确定贝加尔湖特有属Codonobdella的物种边界,我们将DNA条形码数据整合到生物信息学管道中,然后利用反射搜索来区分分子划界检测到的系统发育物种。结果,该属的模式种分裂为三个系统发育种,对应于当时对Codonobdella truncata的诊断。然而,物种特有的遗传、形态、寄生虫学和分布特征使我们发现了新物种:Codonobdella rufulus sp. 11和Codonobdella tenebris sp. 11;完善对竹的描述;并得到以DNA条形码为补充的传统分类密钥。总的来说,我们的研究强化了“隐种”作为未充分研究物种的临时状态的观点。

Pararhagadochir is a genus of Embioptera comprising 19 valid species distributed in the Neotropical region. Ten species occur in Brazil. The information described in this work was made possible through expeditions dedicated to collecting Pararhagadochir colonies containing females and immatures, which were fundamental for this study. Additionally, sporadic collections were carried out in various municipalities, complementing the understanding of the studied species. In this study, the male of the species Pararhagadochir castaneus Salvatierra, 2020 (only known for the holotype) is redescribed, and for the first time data on female and nymphal stages, biological data, and intraspecific variations are presented. A new species Pararhagadochir Davis, 1940 from several localities of Tocantins is described and illustrated here. Finally, we provide an updated key and a distribution map with new records for the Brazilian species.
Pararhagadochir是Embioptera的一个属,包括19种,分布在新热带地区。巴西有10种。这项工作中描述的信息是通过专门收集含有雌性和未成熟的Pararhagadochir群落的探险而成为可能的,这是本研究的基础。此外,在各个城市进行了零星收集,补充了对所研究物种的了解。在本研究中,对Pararhagadochir castaneus Salvatierra, 2020(仅以完整型为人所知)的雄性进行了重新描述,并首次介绍了雌性和雌雄阶段、生物学数据和种内变异的数据。本文描述了托坎廷斯几个地区的一个新种Pararhagadochir Davis, 1940。最后,我们提供了一个更新的密钥和巴西种的新记录分布图。

The species status of Hyla arborea and H. orientalis is well supported by genetic data, however, there is still a lack of studies that could differentiate between these taxa based on other characteristics. During the mating season in the period 2021–2024, we measured a total of 196 tree frogs (144 male and 52 female) from six sites – three within the range of H. arborea and three within the range of H. orienatalis in Bulgaria. All frogs were anesthetised, measured, photographed and released at the site of capture after they were fully recovered. We assessed eight morphometric traits and corresponding indices, and used statistical comparisons to examine species- and population-level variation. While some indices showed significant differences, results did not support clear-cut morphological separation between species. Notably, one population (Zaychino), genetically identified as H. orientalis, grouped morphometrically with H. arborea. Our results suggest that interspecific morphological differences are subtle and may be more influenced by local environmental adaptation or historical introgression. Although not sufficient for a direct species identification in the field, the results contribute towards a better understanding of the morphological differences between these two congeneric species.
在遗传资料的支持下,木门和东方门的物种地位得到了很好的证明,但目前还缺乏基于其他特征来区分这两个分类群的研究。在2021-2024年的交配季节,我们在保加利亚的6个地点共测量了196只树蛙(雄性144只,雌性52只),其中3只在树蛙分布范围内,3只在东方树蛙分布范围内。所有的青蛙都被麻醉,测量,拍照,并在它们完全恢复后在捕获地点释放。我们评估了8个形态特征和相应的指标,并使用统计比较来检验物种和种群水平的变异。虽然有些指标存在显著差异,但结果并不支持物种间明确的形态分离。值得注意的是,有一个种群(Zaychino)在遗传上被鉴定为东方鼠,在形态上与树鼠归为一类。我们的研究结果表明,种间形态差异是微妙的,可能更多地受到当地环境适应或历史渗入的影响。虽然这些结果不足以在野外进行直接的物种鉴定,但有助于更好地了解这两个同属物种之间的形态差异。

Using an integrated taxonomic approach based on a robust data set including external morphology, cranial anatomy, hemipenial morphology, scale microstructure, and molecular data, we describe a new species of gecko of the genus Phyllopezus from mountains in the northeastern Brazilian Atlantic Forest. The species is currently known to occur in Serra da Jiboia, municipality of Elísio Medrado, Bahia state, and Serra de Itabaiana, municipality of Areia Branca, Sergipe state. The new species is genetically related and more morphologically similar to Phyllopezus diamantino and Phyllopezus selmae, sharing all diagnostic characteristics for both these species, but distinguished from their congeners by meristic and morphometric characters. The new species is the first Phyllodactylidae to have its hemipenial morphology described and together with the cranial anatomy and the description of the microstructures of the dorsal scales provided here, it encourages the use of new approaches for the description of the cryptic species present in this species complex.
基于外部形态学、颅骨解剖学、半半球形态学、鳞片微观结构和分子数据,采用综合分类方法对巴西大西洋森林东北部山区的一种新壁虎进行了描述。目前已知该物种出现在巴伊亚州Elísio Medrado市Serra da Jiboia和塞尔希佩州Areia Branca市Serra de Itabaiana。该新种与毛竹(Phyllopezus diamantino)和毛竹(Phyllopezus selmae)有遗传亲缘关系,在形态上更相似,具有这两个物种的所有诊断特征,但在分生和形态特征上与它们的同系物有所区别。这一新物种是第一个被描述的半头形态的种,加上颅骨解剖和背部鳞片微观结构的描述,它鼓励使用新的方法来描述这个物种复合体中存在的隐物种。

Among the eight Japanese species of the genus Gekko, natural hybridization was reported in four pairs at various frequencies. A recent behavioral study suggested that the species-specific courtship calls of the males act as premating isolation for some species of these geckos; however, others lack species-specific calls, which results in hybridizations. No comprehensive study has been conducted to identify a general pattern in the development of isolating barriers in this group. We examined the hybridization status between eight pairs of seven species using population genetic analyses based on microsatellite markers and allozyme data. We then examined the changes in the frequency of hybrids and the proportion of F1 hybrids against the total number of hybrids along with increasing genetic distances in a phylogenetic framework. The contribution of the courtship call type as a determinant of the presence/absence of hybridization was evaluated by statistical modeling. The results of the genetic analyses revealed hybridizations between two pairs of three species, each having a species-specific call, in addition to previously reported species pairs. Statistical analyses indicated that the frequency of hybrids between species was negatively correlated with genetic distance, and the proportion of F1 hybrids increased with genetic distance. The results suggest the progressive development of postmating isolation with genetic divergence in this group. The contribution of call type to the presence/absence of hybridization was not fully supported, in part, because of the hybridizations of one of the species exhibiting species-specific calls. A possible reason for the exceptional hybridizations between the species with species-specific calls is discussed.
在日本8种壁虎属植物中,有4对不同频率的自然杂交。最近的一项行为研究表明,雄性的求偶叫声对某些种类的壁虎来说是一种提前交配的隔离;然而,其他的缺乏物种特有的叫声,这导致杂交。目前还没有进行全面的研究来确定这一群体中隔离障碍发展的一般模式。利用微卫星标记和同工酶数据对7个品种的8对杂交情况进行了群体遗传分析。然后,我们在系统发育框架中研究了随着遗传距离的增加,杂种频率和F1杂种占杂种总数的比例的变化。通过统计建模评估了求偶叫声类型作为杂交存在与否的决定因素的贡献。遗传分析的结果显示,除了先前报道的物种对外,三种物种的两对杂交,每对都有一种特定的叫声。统计分析表明,种间杂交频率与遗传距离呈负相关,F1杂交比例随遗传距离的增加而增加。结果表明,该群体在遗传分化的情况下逐渐发展为交配后分离。叫声类型对杂交存在与否的贡献没有得到充分的支持,部分原因是其中一个物种的杂交表现出物种特有的叫声。讨论了具有物种特异性叫声的物种之间异常杂交的可能原因。

Halictophagidae is a strepsipteran family that parasitizes Orthoptera, Diptera, Blattodea and Hemiptera. To date, only 2 genera and 12 species have been recorded in China. In this study, we describe Coriophagus tigrilepus sp. nov., based on a male specimen collected from Hainan Province. This discovery represents the first record of both the genus Coriophagus and the subfamily Coriophaginae in China. The new species characterized by unique maxillary palpi, the absence of apical expansion on the forefemur, a slender R2 in the hindwing and a slender aedeagus with a short apical hook. Additionally, we provide an updated checklist of Halictophagidae species documented in China and present a revised key to all Coriophagus species worldwide.

Leptopis is a South-American genus with two subgenera and seven valid species: Leptopsis (Leptopsis) Desutter-Grandcolas, 1996, including Leptopsis (Leptopsis) nauta Desutter-Grandcolas, 1992, Leptopsis (Leptopsis) zumun Desutter-Grandcolas, 1992, Leptopsis (Leptopsis) saussurei Desutter-Grandcolas, 1992, Leptopsis (Leptopsis) ecuadori Gorochov, 2006, and Leptopsis (Leptopsis) ucayali Gorochov, 2011; and Leptopsis (Aberracla) Gorochov, 2011, including Leptopsis (Aberracla) chopardi Desutter-Grandcolas, 1992, and Leptopsis (Aberracla) morona Gorochov, 2011. In this work, we describe two new species, Leptopsis (Leptopsis) vader sp. nov. and Leptopsis (Leptopsis) silens sp. nov, recorded in the state of Pará, Brazil, the first record of the genus in the country, and predict and discuss the distribution of the genus through Species Distribution Models (SDMs). These two new species are easily distinguished from the others by the shape of the phallic complex sclerites, specifically the pseudepiphallic sclerite A. Additionally, the females exhibit differences in copulatory papillae among species for which these structures are known. We also propose synonymizing Mellomima Desutter-Grandcolas, 2020 under Leptopsis (Aberracla), lowering the rank from genus to subgenus, and moving Mellomima guyanensis Desutter-Grandcolas, 2020 to the subgenus Leptopsis (Aberracla), under the combination Leptopsis (Aberracla) guyanensis comb. nov. The SDMs for the genus Leptopsis showed a reasonable fit despite the genus's current limited distribution. The model indicated a wide distribution across central and northern Amazonia, with the greatest coverage in the eastern region. High-suitability areas were also identified in countries where the genus has not yet been recorded, such as Venezuela, Guyana, and Suriname. Furthermore, the model predicted high-suitability regions outside Amazonian domains, particularly in northern Colombia and Venezuela. The bioclimatic variables that contributed most to the models and probably influence the genus distribution were the precipitation of the wettest quarter and isothermality.
Leptopsis (Leptopsis)是南美洲的一个属,有两个亚属和七个有效种:Leptopsis (Leptopsis) Desutter-Grandcolas, 1996,包括Leptopsis (Leptopsis) nauta Desutter-Grandcolas, 1992, Leptopsis (Leptopsis) zumun Desutter-Grandcolas, 1992, Leptopsis (Leptopsis) saussurei Desutter-Grandcolas, ecuadori Gorochov, 2006,和Leptopsis (Leptopsis) ucayali Gorochov, 2011;和Leptopsis (Aberracla) Gorochov, 2011,包括Leptopsis (Aberracla) chopardi Desutter-Grandcolas, 1992和Leptopsis (Aberracla) morona Gorochov, 2011。本文描述了在巴西par州首次记录到的Leptopsis (Leptopsis) vader sp. nov和Leptopsis (Leptopsis) silens sp. nov两个新种,并通过物种分布模型(SDMs)对该属的分布进行了预测和讨论。这两个新物种很容易通过生殖器复合硬膜的形状与其他物种区分开来,特别是假阴茎硬膜a。此外,雌性在这些结构已知的物种之间表现出交配乳头的差异。我们还建议将Mellomima Desutter-Grandcolas, 2020同义命名为Leptopsis (Aberracla),将属级降为亚属,并将Mellomima guyanensis Desutter-Grandcolas, 2020移至Leptopsis (Aberracla)组合下的Leptopsis (Aberracla) guyanensis梳子下的Leptopsis (Aberracla)亚属。11 . Leptopsis属的SDMs显示出合理的拟合,尽管该属目前的分布有限。该模型表明,亚马逊河流域中部和北部分布广泛,东部地区覆盖范围最大。在委内瑞拉、圭亚那和苏里南等尚未记录该属的国家也确定了高适宜性地区。此外,该模型还预测了亚马逊地区以外的高适宜性地区,特别是哥伦比亚北部和委内瑞拉。对模式贡献最大并可能影响属分布的生物气候变量是最湿季降水和等温线。
