- ArticleBrumley C.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 24;4728(4):zootaxa.4728.4.12.The aim of this paper is to provide a checklist for Australian collected aphids present in the Australian National Insect Collection. Host plants for each species are provided, alongside Australian State and territory distribution. Six species are documented for the first time in Australia: Aphis forbesi, Micromyzella filicis, Trichosiphonaphis polygoni, Wahlgreniella nervata, Reticulaphis distylii and Reticulaphis inflata. A total of 137 new host plant associations are documented, spread across 51 species of aphids. A list of the remaining species previously published as present in Australia is also included.
- ArticleSchröder NM, Anjos-Santos D, Rippel CG, Pessacq P.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 24;4728(4):zootaxa.4728.4.4.The larva of Peristicta aeneoviridis Calvert, 1909 is described for the first time, based on material from Misiones Province, Argentina. It differs from the rest of the larvae described for the genus in the shape and coloration of caudal lamellae, femur setae, lacinia teeth and coloration patterns. Additions to the description of the larva of P. forceps Hagen in Selys, 1860 are included.
- ArticleWalther F, Hausdorf B.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 23;4728(3):zootaxa.4728.3.11.Diplommatina Benson, 1849 (Caenogastropoda: Diplommatinidae) is a species-rich genus of terrestrial microsnails with a constriction near the beginning of the last whorl (Kobelt 1902). It includes several hundred species in eastern and southern continental Asia, Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia and the Philippines. Although known for more than a century from the Himalayas and other mountain ranges in India, the first Diplommatina from Nepal were reported not before 1997 (Kuznetsov Schileyko 1997). A recent revision reported 16 species of the genus from Nepal (Budha et al. 2017).
- ArticleContarini M, Olmi M, Capradossi L, Guglielmino A.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 24;4728(4):zootaxa.4728.4.6.Embolemus villemantae sp. nov. (Hymenoptera: Embolemidae) is described from New Caledonia. The key to the males of the Australasian species of Embolemus is modified to include the new species.
- ArticleZhang S, Zhang S, Chen H.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 23;4728(3):zootaxa.4728.3.8.During an investigation carried out by the Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOCAS), two living buccinid specimens were collected from a deep-sea methane seep area in the South China Sea. Observations of the shell, gross anatomy and radular morphology reveal that they represent an undescribed species of the genus Enigmaticolus. In this paper, we describe and illustrate this species as Enigmaticolus inflatus sp. nov. The new species is by general shell shape most similar to Enigmaticolus marshalli Fraussen Stahlschmidt, 2016 from Kermadec Ridge, New Zealand, but can be distinguished from it by having an inflated shell with reduced spiral sculpture, and by the absence of axial sculpture. Phylogenetic analysis using 636 bp of the cytochrome oxidase c subunit I (COI) gene also supports its systematic placement within Enigmaticolus.
- ArticleEscalona HE, Lawrence JF, Ślipiński A.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 24;4728(4):zootaxa.4728.4.11.The genus Omma Newman (type species Omma stanleyi Newman) is revised and redefined based on extant species, with examination of additional fossil species. As a result, only the species O. stanleyi Newman is retained in Omma and a new genus, Beutelius gen. nov. (type species Omma mastersi MacLeay), is described to accommodate the remaining Australian species: B. mastersi (MacLeay), comb. nov., B. sagitta (Neboiss), comb. nov. and B. rutherfordi (Lawrence), comb. nov. A new species, Beutelius reidi sp. nov., is described from Melville Range Nature Reserve in New South Wales, Australia. Diagnoses and new records for extant Ommatinae, including the male of B. sagitta and female of B. mastersi, are provided, as well as a key to extant genera and species.

- ArticleOliver PM, Hartman R, Turner CD, Wilde TA, Austin CC, Richards SJ.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 23;4728(3):zootaxa.4728.3.3.Systematic investigations of vertebrate faunas from the islands of Melanesia are revealing high levels of endemism, dynamic biogeographic histories, and in some cases surprisingly long evolutionary histories of insularity. The bent-toed geckos in the Cyrtodactylus sermowaiensis Group mainly occur in northern New Guinea and nearby islands, however a further isolated population occurs on Manus Island in the Admiralty Archipelago approximately 300 km to the north of New Guinea. Here we first present a review of the genetic diversity, morphological variation and distribution of Cyrtodactylus sermowaiensis from northern New Guinea. Genetic structure and distributional records within Cyrtodactylus sermowaiensis broadly overlap with underlying Terranes in northern New Guinea, suggesting divergence on former islands that have been obscured by the infill and uplift of sedimentary basins since the late Pleistocene. Based on a combination of genetic and morphological differentiation we then describe the population from Manus Island as a new species, Cyrtodactylus crustulus sp. nov. This new species emphasises the high biological endemism and conservation significance of the Admiralty Islands, and especially Manus Island.
- ArticleRuta R.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 23;4728(3):zootaxa.4728.3.2.Daploeuros reichertae sp. nov. is described from New South Wales, Australia. The species is the smallest member of the genus, easy to distinguish on the basis of the morphology of the male copulatory organs. A short supplementary description of the female of Daploeuros tasmanicus Watts and a key to identify the species of Daploeuros are provided.

- ArticleShimose T, Suzuki N, Iwatsuki Y.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 24;4728(4):zootaxa.4728.4.5.Platyinius amoenus Snyder 1911 has long been considered a junior synonym of Pristipomoides argyrogrammicus (Valenciennes 1832), however, the two are discernible as distinct species from color patterns and counts of gill rakers based on examination of their type materials and non-type specimens. Furthermore, genetic differences based on molecular analysis among the two species (mtDNA, COI gene) strongly support the validity of both species. Pristipomoides amoenus can be readily distinguished from P. argyrogrammicus in having no white margin to the dorsal, anal, and caudal fins, silvery blue spots continuing inside dorso-lateral yellow blotches, and presence of modally10 (vs. modally 12) lower gill rakers. Both species were collected sympatrically around Ishigaki Island, Okinawa, Japan.
- ArticleXu QH.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 23;4728(3):zootaxa.4728.3.7.The final stadium larva of Megalestes heros Needham, 1930 is redescribed and illustrated in detail. It is characterized by having a long and cylindrical body, a very long prementum with two end hooks of unequal size on lateral lobe, parallel wing sheaths, long and slender legs, female ovipositor short reaching the basal third of S10, and based on a distinct abdominal color pattern. The major diagnostic characters of the larvae of the genus Megalestes are as follows: (1) body smooth and slender, with long abdomen and leaf-shaped caudal gills; (2) antenna filiform, seven-segmented,third segment longest; (3) median cleft present in median lobe of prementum; lateral lobe with two end hooks of unequal size, the inner one being longer and larger than the outer, movable hook without setae; (4) wing sheaths parallel to each other.
- ArticleZheng M, Song D.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 24;4728(4):zootaxa.4728.4.8.The genus Deuterixys Mason, 1981 (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Microgastrinae) is revised for China, with three new species described: D. jilinensis Zheng Song, sp. nov., D. longitarsus Zheng Song, sp. nov. and D. shennongensis Zheng Song, sp. nov. A key to the Old World species of Deuterixys is presented.
- ArticleBohn H.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 23;4728(3):zootaxa.4728.3.1.The present paper is a continuation of the revision of the genus Dziriblatta started with definition and description of the nine subgenera of the genus (Bohn 2019). In that first part of the revision usually only one species of each subgenus was described; the remaining species should be treated in following papers of which this contribution is the first dealing with the species of the subgenera Pauciscleroblatta (6 species) and Monoscleroblatta (4 species). Five species are new to science: Dziriblatta (Pauciscleroblatta) cyprica, spec. nov., Dz. (P.) habbachii, spec. nov., Dz. (P.) stenoptera, spec. nov., Dz. (P.) multiporosa, spec. nov., and Dz. (Monoscleroblatta) aglandulosa, spec. nov. The descriptions are illustrated by numerous figures and determination keys allow the discrimination of the species. The geographical distribution of the species is shown on several maps. The species of Pauciscleroblatta are distributed in Algeria, Tunisia, Israel, West Bank, Syria (Golan) and Cyprus, those of Monoscleroblatta are restricted to northwestern Morocco.
- ArticleRosso A, Martino ED, Gerovasileiou V.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 24;4728(4):zootaxa.4728.4.1.The genus Setosella included to date six species. After revision, only four of these species were retained, i.e. S. vulnerata, S. cavernicola, S. folini and S. spiralis. The remaining two species were tentatively placed in Woodipora, W.? antilleana n. comb., and Andreella, A.? fragilis n. comb. On the other hand, scanning electron microscopy examination of Mediterranean material, revealed the presence of three new species previously included in species complexes: S. cyclopensis n. sp. from the open-shelf, S. rossanae n. sp. from submarine caves, and S. alfioi n. sp. from deep-waters. The diagnosis of the genus was amended to include the occurrence of kenozooids in S. cyclopensis n. sp. and S. cavernicola, and of free-living ring-shaped and scorpioid colonies in S. folini and S. alfioi n. sp. All the seven species now in Setosella have present-day representatives; the geographic distribution of the genus is restricted to the NE Atlantic and adjacent seas; its stratigrafic distribution is rejuvenated to the late Tortonian-early Messinian of southern Italy and insular Greece, with only three species occasionally and discontinuously reported. All species are able to produce numerous, subsequent intramural buds and morphological differences seem to be consistently associated with exploitation of particular habitats and substrata.
- ArticleZheng M, Qi M, Li H.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 23;4728(3):zootaxa.4728.3.6.The specimens of Roeslerstammiidae deposited in the Insect Collection of Nankai University have been reviewed. A total of five species are involved. Three new species are described from Southwest China, Agriothera quadrativalva sp. nov., A. microtricha sp. nov. and Telethera declivimarginata sp. nov. Agriothera elaeocarpophaga Moriuti, 1978 is recorded from mainland China for the first time. Photographs of adults and genitalia are given, along with a key to Chinese species.
- ArticleFrolov AV, Akhmetova LA, Král D.Zootaxa. 2020 Jan 23;4728(3):zootaxa.4728.3.9.The subgenus Bodilus Mulsant Rey, 1870 of the genus Aphodius Helwig, 1798 sensu lato comprises 30 species in the Palearctic fauna (Frolov 2001, 2002, Dellacasa et al. 2016 [treated as genus Bodilus]). Frolov (2001) reviewed the species of this subgenus from Russia and adjacent countries and suggested that the monotypic subgenus Paramelinopterus Rakovič, 1984 shares the main diagnostic characters of Bodilus. Frolov (2001) was unable, however, to examine the type species of Paramelinopterus, A. longipennis Rakovič, 1984, at that time. Král (2016) suggested that A. (Bodilus) inylchekensis Frolov, 2001 is a junior synonym of A. longipennis. Recently we have re-examined all the types as well as the additional material accumulated in the museums and can confirm that A. inylchekensis is a distinct species, but A. insperatus Petrovitz, 1967 and A. longipennis cannot be reliably separated by the morphological characters. In the present contribution we illustrate the major diagnostic characters of the species based on the type specimens and also provide a distribution map of the known localities of the species.
