Abstract:

The genus Avicularia Lamarck, 1818 is revised and all species are rediagnosed. The type species, described as Aranea avicularia Linnaeus, 1758, is the oldest mygalomorph species described and its taxonomic history is extensive and confusing. Cladistic analyses using both equal and implied weights were carried out with a matrix of 46 taxa from seven theraphosid subfamilies, and 71 morphological and ecological characters. The optimal cladogram found with Piwe and concavity = 6 suggests Avicularia and Aviculariinae are monophyletic. Subfamily Aviculariinae includes Avicularia Lamarck, 1818, Typho

The paper presents comparison of main diagnostic characters of all recognizable species of genera Euophrys C.L.

All that purports to illustrate the current state of classification suggests progress and improvements. Discussed postulates include adding color macrophotograps of live specimens to the routine tools of research, and routine use of precisely documented palps and internal structures of epigyne. Implementation of the above will require change of research protoco

Abstract:

Alpheus praecox Herrick, 1888, previously regarded as nomen nudum, nomen dubium or a possible senior synonym of Synalpheus brevicarpus (Herrick, 1891), is shown to be a senior synonym of Synalpheus pectiniger Coutière, 1909. However, because A. praecox has not been used as a valid name since 1899, whereas S. pectiniger on the other hand appeared as valid species in at least 29 publications signed by numerous authors, A. praecox is herewith designated nomen oblitum, with S. pectiniger becoming nomen protectum.

Abstract:

The earthworm fauna of tropical Africa is clearly understudied. This is mainly due to the lack of local earthworm researchers. Nigeria is an exception in this regard with an excellent earthworm researcher A.O. Segun and his successor S.O. Owa describing some 30 earthworm species belonging to the family Eudrilidae. Recently, Aladesida & Ova (2015) published descriptions of four new earthworm genera and species; Adodrilus stephana (Megascolecidae), Ekitidrilus alabataensis, Paranematogenia eyinwaensis (Ocnerodrilidae), and Imekodrilus hexagastricus (Moniligastridae).

Abstract:

Aphonopelma braunshausenii Tesmoingt, 1996 is regarded as a nomen dubium due to the lack of a deposited holotype, an inadequate description which gives no stable taxonomic features to differentiate it from any other species and the absence of an exact type locality. The instability of some morphological characters which were given weight for species delineation in many earlier works is discussed and illustrated.

In 1935, von Huene identified the partial skeleton of a fossil reptile from the Kimmeridgian of Milne Land, Greenland, as part of a plesiosaur. This specimen was used as the holotype of Cryptoclidus (Apractoclidus) aldingeri, but was interpreted erroneously. The specimen is here reinterpreted and described as the pectoral region and posterior portion of the neck. The specimen is not diagnostic past the level of family, and is regarded as Cryptoclididae indet – the species aldingeri thereforebecomes a nomen dubium.

Plagiotaphrus is a monophyletic genus which formerly included three species, P. sulcifer Attems 1914 (the type species), P. improvisus (Attems 1934) and P. longius Attems 1928. Plagiotaphrus longius is a nomen dubium and is here excluded from the genus. A key to the species based on gonopod morphology is also presented. The distribution of Plagiotaphrus is disjunct. Given that several localities in Africa have not been surveyed it is likely that Plagiotaphrus species occur in more localities.

Abstract:

The scolecodont genera Nereidavus Grinnell, 1877, and Protarabellites Stauffer, 1933, have been used for several different fossil polychaete taxa over the years. Nereidavus is here considered a nomen dubium, as the holotype of the type species is lost and the original information is insufficient for identification. Protarabellites is reevaluated and constitutes, besides Ramphoprion, a second genus in the family Ramphoprionidae. The “paratype” of N. varians (named Ramphoprion sp. in this paper), and the holotype of P. humilis are redescribed.

In this paper the primary types of Centris described by Amédée Lepeletier de Saint-Fargeau in 1841 deposited at Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, France and Hope Entomological Collection, Oxford University Museum of Natural History, United Kingdom were studied. To stabilize the application of some names, lectotypes were designated for C. bimaculata, C. collaris, C. decolorata, C. denudans, C. dorsata, C. ferruginea, C. fuscata, C. maculata (= C. decolorata), C. obsoleta, C. picea, C. poecila, C. trigonoides, C. violacea and C. vittata.

Abstract:

A new species of Eutardigrada, Platicrista ramsayi sp. nov., is described from moss samples collected at high altitude on Volcán Chiles in the Ecuadorian Andes. This species differs from all others previously described in the genus by having only oblique cuticular bars on the first three pairs of legs. Platicrista affine (Mihel…i…, 1951) is formally designated as a nomen dubium. An amendment to the diagnostic characters for Platicrista itaquasconoide is proposed. A key to the species of the genus is presented.

Abstract:

The genus Austrothrips is considered a nomen dubium because the types are lost and the type species description is uninformative. Austrothrips flavitibia Moulton is transferred to the genus Teuchothrips and Austrothrips vanuaensis Moulton is transferred to the genus Solomonthrips. The gall-inducing Austrothrips cochinchinensis Karny is transferred to Ocnothrips as a senior synonym of the type species, O. indicus. The host of cochinchinensis is recognised as a vine-like shrub, Getonia floribunda, that is widespread between western India and southeast China.

Abstract:

The genus Segestria Latreille, 1804 includes 21 species distributed mainly in the Palearctic region. Only two species have been described from South America: Segestria ruficeps Guérin, 1832 (known from Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina) and Segestria pusilla Nicolet, 1849 (known only from Chile). A study of the female genitalia shows that S. ruficeps is a junior synonym of the Paleartcic species Segestria florentina (Rossi 1790), which is redescribed and illustrated. S. pusilla is transferred to the genus Ariadna as a nomen dubium.

The taxonomy and nomenclature of the included species (viz. S. detectus, S. luteivittus, and S. penedetectus) are reviewed. Spartidelphax luteivittus is a nomen dubium, whose type material is inadequate to provide diagnostic features contrasting with S. detectus and S. penedetectus.

Abstract:

Beginning about 80 years ago, the recognition of morphological varieties of mosquitoes was gradually replaced by the recognition of subspecies. As an examination of revisionary and detailed taxonomic studies of mosquitoes clearly shows, subspecies are untenable concepts which have been synonymized with nominotypical forms or recognized as distinct species. Thus, from our perspective, subspecies is not a functional or practical taxonomic rank. Consequently, in this study we critically assessed the taxonomic status of the 120 nominal taxa distinguished as subspecies before now to determine wheth

New collections identified by nrITS sequence analyses extend the distribution of P. dianae to Denmark, European Russia, and the Asian part of Turkey and of P. punctatus to Sweden. The application of these names is discussed; both belong in the P. plautus complex, and data on European and North American taxa in this complex are summarised and compared with P. dianae and P. punctatus. Pluteus aestivus is considered a nomen dubium.

Abstract Although the presence of mosasaurids in the Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) Baculites limestone of the Cotentin peninsula, in the western part of Normandy (France), was reported as early as 1873 by Henri-Emile Sauvage, this occurrence has largely been overlooked by subsequent authors. In this paper we review Sauvage’s original material (an isolated tooth – the type of Mosasaurus platyodon) and describe an additional, hitherto unpublished, tooth crown also from the Baculites Limestone of the Cotentin and refer both to the globidensine mosasaur Prognathodon.

No living Opilioacarus species have been described from Europe for more than a century since the first finding and species description in the early twentieth century. Using the material deposited in Museo Civico di Storia Naturale of Verona, Italy, it was possible to identify and describe a new Opilioacarus species and review the genus diagnosis, using the shape of setae d and setation of the preanal segment. The new species is also briefly compared with the other Opilioacarus species; Opilioacarus italicus (With, 1904) is considered a nomen dubium.
