Three New Species

This paper includes a key to the Palaearctic species groups of Botanophila, characteristics of each species group (key and characteristics compiled by Michael Ackland), and keys to the species of Botanophila from China. This paper also provides the characters of the genus Botanophila and describes three new species, namely B. densispinula sp. nov., B. platysurstyla sp. nov. and B. subspinulibasis sp. nov.; Botanophila nigrifrontata (Fan & Zheng) is synonymized with B. melametopa (Fan); and B. zhuoniensis (Jin) and B. nigribella (Deng) are redescribed. The type specimens of the new species are deposited in the Institute of Entomology, Shenyang Normal University.

Three new species-groups are established for eastern Palaearctic species of the genus Anthobium Leach, 1819: Gracilipalpe-group containing A. gracilipalpe (Champion, 1920) (Uttaranchal, Nepal), A. daliense sp.n. (China: Yunnan, Diancang Shan) and A. nivale sp.n. (China: Yunnan, Gaoligong Shan). Morchella-group containing A. morchella sp.n. (China: Yunnan, Baima Shan), A. hydraenoides sp.n. (China: Yunnan, Meili Xue Shan) and A. puetzi sp.n. (China: Sichuan, Daxue Shan, Qionglai Shan). Nigrum-Group containing A. nigrum (Cameron, 1924) (Himalaya), A. anishchenkoi sp.n. (China: Gansu, Dalijia Shan), A. conjunctum sp.n. (China: Yunnan, Diancang Shan), A. densepunctatum sp.n. (China: Yunnan, Meili Xue Shan) and A. ivani sp.n. (Nepal: Bagmati; Bhutan). The species groups are defined, briefly discussed and a key to the species included in each group is given. Lectotypes are designated for Eudeliphrum gracilipalpe Champion, 1920 and Lathrimaeum nigrum Cameron, 1924. Species in each species-group are described/redescribed, illustrated and their geographical distribution is mapped. Members of the genus Anthobium are recorded for the first time from China and Bhutan, and Anthobium gracilipalpe is recorded for the first time from Nepal.

Three New Species

We provide diagnostics for eight species groups of Oriental Pseudopostega Kozlov (Lepidoptera: Opostegidae) and a pictorial key for their identification. We designate three new species groups, P. frigida and P. strigulata groups, and the P. auritella group for two Palaearctic species, and rename the P. nigrimaculella group as the P. matrona group. We assign P. euryntis (Meyrick), P. zelopa (Meyrick), and P. subviolaceae (Meyrick), three formerly unplaced species, to species groups based on re-examination of male and female genitalia. We list 22 currently known Oriental Pseudopostega species, and synonymize Pseudopostega spilodes (Meyrick), syn. nov., with P. machaerias (Meyrick). One new Mediterranean species with affiliations to the Oriental fauna, P. matrona Karsholt & Remeikis, sp. nov., is described. The new species is illustrated with photographs of the adults and male genitalia. Additionally, we provide a distribution map of the P. matrona group, now extralimital to the Oriental region.

Three New Species

The genus Ornebius Guérin-Méneville, 1844 was divided into five species groups based on the structure of the male genitalia. Three new species of Ornebius were described from the Chinese provinces of Hainan, Guangxi and Guangdong. Type specimens are deposited at the Museum of Flora and Fauna of Shaanxi Normal University, Xi’an, China (SNNU).

Three new species-group are established for eastern Palaearctic species of the genus Anthobium Leach, 1819: the consanguineum-group containing A. consanguineum Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Yunnan: Gaoligong Shan, Diancang Shan) and A. jaegeri Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (Central Nepal: Kali Gandaki Valley); the crassum-group containing A. crassum Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n.

(China: Sichuan: Gongga Shan), and A. farkaci Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Sichuan, Sabde); the reflexum-group containing A. reflexum (Reitter, 1891) (Middle Asia), A.deplanatum Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Sichuan: Erlang Shan), A. gaoligongshanense Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Yunnan: Gaoligong Shan), and A. kashmiricum (Cameron, 1941) (India: Kashmir). The species groups are defined, briefly discussed, and a key to the species included in each group is given. A lectotype is designated for Lathrimaeum reflexum Reitter, 1891. The subgenus Prionothorax Luze, 1905 is synonymized with the nominal subgenus of Anthobium. An additional species of the fusculum group is described: A. transversale Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Sichuan: Gongga Shan). The species of each species-group are (re-)described, illustrated, and their geographical distributions are mapped. Anthobium reflexum is recorded from Kyrgyzstan for the first time.

Three new species of Anaulacomera are described, Anaulacomera (Anaulacomera) mariellae sp. n. and Anaulacomera (Anallomes) arlindoi sp. n., belonging respectively to the Inermis and Lanceolata species group, and Anaulacomera angelinae sp. n., placed as incertae sedis. The individuals were collected at the Iguaçu National Park and adjacent small fragments of Atlantic Forest, in southwestern Paraná state, Brazil. The description was based on external morphology of males. We also present distribution maps for the species of the Inermis and the Lanceolata species groups.

A New Species

Ten species of which six are new, of the genus Drosophila are described and figured: D. cancellata, sp. nov., D. enigma Mall., D. lativittata Mall., D. opaca, sp. nov., D. maculosa, sp. nov., D. levis, sp. nov., D. serrata Mall., D. takahashii Sturt., D. dispar, sp. nov., and D. versicolor, sp. nov. Laboratory cultures of these have been set up from single females fertilized in the wild, allowing descriptions of eggs, larvae, pupae, and certain internal structures and external anatomy of the adults. These species have been assigned to subgenera and species group and their geographical distribution is recorded, together with the known Queensland distribution of D. busckii Coq., D. melanogaster Meig., D. simulans Sturt., D. ananassae Dol., D. hydei Sturt., D. repleta Woll., D. immigrans Sturt., and D. spinofemora Patt. & Wheel. These 18 species are keyed. The taxonomy of the subgenus Pholadoris is discussed, and three new species groups established, namely, coracina, maculosa, and levis. A new species group within the subgenus Sophophora, namely, dispar, is established.
