The African endemic species “ Nychiodes” tyttha Prout, 1915 (Lepidoptera, Geometridae, Ennominae) belongs to the genus Aphilopota Warren, 1899
An extensive examination of the external and internal morphological characters of the genus Nychiodes shows that “Nychiodes” tyttha Prout, 1915 is incorrectly placed in this genus. The systematic position of this species was investigated by using a multigene analysis, including one mitochondrial and up to nine protein-coding nuclear gene regions, and morphological characters. These results support a re-classification of this species as Aphilopota tyttha, comb. nov. A re-description supported by illustrations of morphological characters for A. tyttha is provided.
期刊介绍:
Nota Lepidopterologica is the scientific, peer-reviewed journal of the Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica (SEL). It publishes original contributions to the study of mainly but not exclusively Palaearctic Lepidoptera, especially on taxonomy, morphology/anatomy, phylogenetics, biogeography, ecology, behaviour, and conservation, but also on any other aspects of lepidopterology.
All articles are published in English, with the possibility of having the summary written in other languages. All submitted manuscripts are subject to peer-review by the leading specialists for the respective topic. The journal is published in open access high-resolution PDF, semantically enriched HTML and machine-readable XML versions.
All papers can be freely copied, downloaded, printed and distributed at no charge. Authors and readers are thus encouraged to post the pdf files of published papers on homepages or elsewhere to expedite distribution. Publication is free for the SEL members and there is no charge for color.
