摘要
新热带属 Ebenia Macquart,1846 年,是 Dufouriini(Dexiinae)科的成员,在目前的工作之前,包括四个种,即 E. claripennis Macquart 1846、E. fumata (Wulp, 1891)、E. neofumata Santis & Nihei, 2022 和 E. trichopoda (Wulp, 1891)。本次分类学修订产生了一个新的属同义:Comyops Wulp, 1891 syn.以下两个新的组合就是由此产生的:和 E. striaticollis (Wulp, 1891) comb.此外,最初描述为 Homodexia spinosa Bigot,1889 的本种被从其目前在 Thelairodes Wulp,1891 中的位置移到 Ebenia 中,作为 Ebenia spinosa (Bigot, 1889) comb.为最后一个种提出了一个新的特异异名:spinosa 的初级异名。claripennis、E. neofumata 和 E. nigripennis 的雄性顶生叶以及 E. spinosa 的雌性顶生叶。nigripennis 和 M. trichopoda 的固定模式。nigripennis 和 M. trichopoda 的模式标本。最后,提供了 Ebenia 属的最新诊断和六个已知种的检索表。
Revision of the Neotropical Obscure Genus Ebenia Macquart 1846 (Diptera, Tachinidae, Dufouriini).
The Neotropical genus Ebenia Macquart, 1846, is a member of the tribe Dufouriini (Dexiinae), and before the current work, comprised four species, viz. E. claripennis Macquart 1846, E. fumata (Wulp, 1891), E. neofumata Santis & Nihei, 2022 and E. trichopoda (Wulp, 1891). The present taxonomic revision results in a new generic synonymy: Comyops Wulp, 1891 syn. nov. of Ebenia. The following two new combinations result from this act: E. nigripennis (Wulp, 1891) comb. nov. and E. striaticollis (Wulp, 1891) comb. nov. both originally described in Comyops. In addition, the species originally described as Homodexia spinosa Bigot, 1889 is moved from its current placement in Thelairodes Wulp, 1891 to Ebenia as Ebenia spinosa (Bigot, 1889) comb. nov. A new specific synonymy is proposed for this last species: Morinia trichopoda Wulp, 1891, previously treated as a valid species of Ebenia, becomes a junior synonym of E. spinosa. All valid species are redescribed and photographed with the first description and illustration of the male terminalia for E. claripennis, E. neofumata and E. nigripennis and female terminalia for E. spinosa. Additionally, lectotype fixations are made for E. nigripennis and M. trichopoda. Finally, an updated diagnosis for the genus Ebenia and a key to the six known species are provided.
期刊介绍:
Neotropical Entomology is a bimonthly journal, edited by the Sociedade Entomológica do Brasil (Entomological Society of Brazil) that publishes original articles produced by Brazilian and international experts in several subspecialties of entomology. These include bionomics, systematics, morphology, physiology, behavior, ecology, biological control, crop protection and acarology.
