A New Species

The North American leafhopper genus Erasmoneura Young was described as a subgenus of Erythroneura Fitch by Young (1952) to comprise the informal Erythroneura vulnerata Fitch species group previously recognized by Beamer (1938, 1946). Erasmoneura was recently elevated to generic status (Dietrich & Dmitriev, 2006) and revised (Dmitriev & Dietrich, 2007). In this paper, the male of Erasmoneura bipentagona (Beamer), previously known only from the female holotype and placed in the genus based on external similarity and features of wing venation (Young, 1952; Dietrich & Dmitriev, 2006; Dmitriev & Dietrich, 2007, see also the note for the species below), and a new species are described. A key for identification of all 13 species of the genus is provided. The key is based mainly on male genitalia characters. Although individual species have a characteristic color pattern, details and intensity may be highly variable both inter- and intraspecifically.

A New Species

A new species of Hyphessobrycon Durbin from the Paraná do Urariá system in Central Amazon region, Amazonas state, Brazil, is described. The new species is allocated into the Hyphessobrycon heterorhabdus species-group due to its color pattern, composed by a well-defined, horizontally elongated humeral blotch continuous with a conspicuous midlateral dark stripe that becomes blurred towards the caudal peduncle, and can be distinguished from all other species of the group by possessing humeral blotch and continuous midlateral stripe broad, occupying vertical height equivalent of two scale rows. A tricolored pattern composed dorsally by a red or reddish longitudinal stripe, a middle iridescent, golden or silvery longitudinal stripe, and ventrally by a variably-developed longitudinal dark stripe is identified as a putative additional character shared by the species of the Hyphessobrycon heterorhabdus species-group. The presence of bony hooks in all fins in mature males of some species of the Hyphessobrycon heterorhabdus species-group is also discussed.

A new species of the recently erected genus Tortopsis is described from males and females imagos collected in Macaé river, Rio de Janeiro State. Tortopsis canum sp. nov. can be recognized by the color pattern of the head and pronotum, strongly shaded with black in both sexes, male genitalia with parastyli long and straight and female parastyli receptor “C” shaped, with receptors large, occupying nearly all extension of sternum VIII. This new species represents the first record of the genus Tortopsis in Brazil.

Kribiodorum is a small genus of non-biting midges, currently composed of only five nominal species, one Nearctic, two African and two Oriental. The objective of this study is to provide the first report of this genus to the Neotropical region and to describe a new species, based on male and female from southern Amazonas state, Brazil. Kribiodorum amazonicum sp. n. is easily distinguished from the congeneric species by the color pattern of the wings and legs and by the morphology of the genitalia.

Macrosaldula bogdashana Luo et Vinokurov sp. n. is described from Bogda Shan Range, Northwestern China. The new species is most similar in size and vestiture to M. oblonga oblonga (Stål, 1858) but differs in the color pattern of forewings (Fig. 1-3) and male genitalia structure (Figs. 11–14). M. bogdashana is also similar to M. tadzhika (Kiritshenko, 1912) in the same vestiture, but can be distinguished from the latter by the shorter body (see Table), shape of pale spots on corium (Figs. 6–9), and the male genitalia structure (Figs. 15–18).

ABSTRACT During the Mosaico do Apuí expedition in 2006, a new species of Ancistrus was found in the rio Sucunduri, a large tributary of the rio Madeira basin in south Amazonas State. The new species has a unique color pattern for the genus and is distinguished by the presence of alternate light and dark vertical bars on the trunk. Other Ancistrini genera have species with a similar color pattern, but the new species is clearly distinguished by a lack of plates on the snout and presence of fleshy tentacles on the snout as in all Ancistrus representatives. We also provide comments on the taxonomic status of the A. bolivianus, A. heterorhynchus and A. marcapatae.

A New Species

Psallus (Psallus) jungaricus Vinokurov et Luo, sp. n., is described from northern Xinjiang (Western China, basin of theEerqisi River and Jungarian Alatau). The new species can be distinguished by the absence of a red pattern on the dorsum,and only the abdominal tergite VII in the female with small red spots. It is similar to the Euro-Siberian Psallus haematodes(Gmelin, 1790) and the Middle Eastern P. galilaeus Linnavuori 1965, and also pale specimens of the south Euro-AnatolienPsallus anaemicus Seidenstücker, 1966 in having a pale cuneus; but it differs from these species in the color pattern of the dorsum and the structure of the male genitalia.
