A New Species

A new Panaeolus species was collected on a lawn at the Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Southwest China and subjected to morphological and molecular analyses. Both macro- and micro-morphological features of the new species were described and compared with morphologically similar species in Panaeolus. The pileus has a distinctive reddish brown patch at the center. Phylogenetic analysis of nrITS data showed a distinct placement of the new species among the closest Panaeolus species, i.e. Panaeolus cyanescens (Berk & Broome) Sacc., Panaeolus cambodginiensis Ola’h & R. Heim, Panaeolus bisporus (Malençon & Bertault) Ew. Gerhardt and Panaeolus cyanescens var. bisporus (Malençon & Bertault) G. Moreno & Esteve-Rav. Both morphological features and phylogenetic data supported naming our taxon as a distinct new species in Panaeolus. Color photographs of basidiomata and micromorphological structures, a full description of the new species, and an updated phylogenetic tree to show the placement of the new species are provided.

A New Species

A new species, Diaphanes pectinealis Li & Liang, from Gaoligong Mountains of Yunnan, Southwest China, is described. Individuals of this species are characterized mainly by the long and strongly pectinate antennae in males and the greatly developed and sclerotized incurved lobe along the dorsal inner margin of male parameres. The characters of the new species challenge the traditional generic diagnoses of Diaphanes and the limits between Diaphanes and its similar genus Pyrocoelia, and reinforce the necessity of a taxonomic revision on these two genera. The types are deposited in Kunming Institute of Zoology, Kunming, and Institute of Zoology, Beijing, the Chinese Academy of Sciences. A checklist of known Chinese Diaphanes species is provided.

A New Species

A new scincid lizard, Plestiodon takarai sp. nov., is described from the Senkaku Group, Ryukyu Archipelago, Japan. The Plestiodon lizards in this island group have previously been identified as P. elegans because they all exhibit a patch of enlarged and irregularly arranged scales on the posterior surface of their femurs. However, detailed molecular analyses revealed that the Senkaku population, although closely related to P. elegans and other species in the P. latiscutatus species group, is substantially diverged from all other recognized species. Furthermore, although the Senkaku population largely exhibits the characteristic morphological features of this species group, it can be differentiated from all recognized species by the scutellation and hatchling tail coloration. The biogeographical and conservation implications of these findings are briefly discussed.

<em>Anthaxia</em> (<em>Anthaxia</em>) <em>patsyae</em> n. sp. from south-western Iran is herein described and illustrated. It is compared with its most similar species, <em>Anthaxia</em> (<em>Anthaxia</em>) <em>mi­das</em> Kiesenwetter, 1857. The unmistakable pattern of its pronotal sculpture, together with other morphological features, suggest to include this new species in the <em>Anthaxia</em> (<em>Anthaxia</em>) <em>salicis</em> (Fabricius, 1776) “species-group”.

Based on the materials deposited in the Marine Biological Museum of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Qingdao, the present paper reports ten turrid species belonging to six genera of subfamilies Clavatulinae and Cochlespirinae, including two new species, i.e., Comitas parvifusiformis sp. nov. and Leucosyrinx mai sp. nov., and three species newly recorded from China seas, i.e., Makiyamaia coreanica (Adams and Reeve, 1850), Turricula sumatrana (Thiele, 1925) and Nihonia santosi Shuto, 1969. Comitas parvifusiformis sp. nov. was collected from South China Sea in the depth of 42-75 m, which differs from the similar species C. fusiformis (Hutton, 1877) by the stronger spiral sculpture; Leucosyrinx mai sp. nov. is a deep sea species, collected from Nansha Islands in the depth of 1241 m, which can be distinguished from the close species L. julia Thiele, 1925 by the spire whorls sharply carinated at the middle of each whorl.
