A New Species

Two new camaenid land snails are reported from Central China. The new genus, represented by Sinochloritislii Wu & Chen, gen. & sp. nov., the type of the genus from Sichuan, is close to Yakuchloritis Habe, Nipponochloritis Habe, Neochloritis Minato and Trichochloritis Pilsbry, but is well characterized by the smooth adult shell, highly developed epiphallic papilla, absence of penial caecum, and the presence of an epiphallus-binding muscle that binds the proximal epiphallus to the distal penis. A new species Bradybaenalinjun Wu & Chen, sp. nov. is described from Hubei Province and is characterized by having two shell bands, a spoon-shaped love dart and the proportionally shortest mucous glands among Chinese congeners.

A New Species

This report provides a description of Primula sunhangii from the Shennongjia Forestry District, Hubei Province in Central China, which is categorized as a new species of the primrose family. Primula sunhangii is morphologically similar to P. involucrata Wall. ex Duby in terms of its simple umbel, efarinose, and prolonged bracts. However, P. sunhangii is distinguished by its glabrous sepal, short petiole (compare with blade) and cylindrical calyx and capsule. Molecular phylogenetic analysis based on nuclear and cpDNA genes demonstrates that P. sunhangii and P. involucrata are closely related. Combining genetic and morphological data, the recognition of P. sunhangii as a unique new species is supported.

Trichosanthes sunhangii D.G.Zhang, Z.M.Li, Qun Liu & T.Deng, a new species of Cucurbitaceae, is described and illustrated. It was collected in Shennongjia Forestry District, Hubei province, east-central China. T. sunhangii is morphologically similar to T. kirilowii Maxim. and T. rosthornii Harms, but can be easily distinguished from them by its bracts, tendrils and fruits. Phylogenetic analyses based on three DNA barcode markers (ITS, matK and rpl20-rps12) indicated that two accessions of T. sunhangii were grouped together (PP=1.00, BP=100 and LP=100) in Sect. Foliobracteola.

A new genus (Mirigryllus He gen. nov.) with a new species (M. nigrus He sp. nov.) is reported from Zhejiang, China. The morphology and calling songs of the new species are provided. The features that different from tribe Modicogryllini spp. include long and thin posterior epiphallic lobes, ectoparameron transparent. Two genes, COI and 18S, of 11 Modicogryllini species were sequenced, and phylogenetic tree was reconstructed. The results support the validation of the new species. The type specimens are deposited in Museum of Biology, East China Normal University (ECNU).

A New Species

Here we describe Oxytropis shennongjiaensis, a new species of Fabaceae from Central China (Hubei Province). Morphologically, O. shennongjiaensis is closely similar to O. sitaipaiensis, O. melanocalyx and O. kansuensis, but differs in stem characters, with less conspicuous internodes; persistent herbaceous stipules; pale yellow to white corolla; and stipitate legumes, 3–5 mm with a long beak. Phylogenetic analysis, based on the internal transcribed spacers (ITS) and two chloroplast markers (trnL–F and psbA–trnH), also identified O. shennongjiaensis as a new species, which is consistent with our morphological analyses. Considering the morphological data and phylogenetic data presented here, we believe that this evidence satisfies the required diagnostic criteria to identify O. shennongjiaensis as a new species.

The present Axioidea-material was collected by the R/V “Hakuhou-maru”, University of Tokyo, in 2005 and the R/V “Nagasaki-maru”, University of Nagasaki, during biological surveys in the East China Sea in 2004-2005. The material collected during these cruises comprises three families, four genera including one new genus, and four species including three new species. These taxa are: Axiidae Huxley, 1879 with Acanthaxius Sakai & De Saint Laurent, 1989, A. gotoensis sp. nov., and Batyaxius gen. nov., B. sugurui sp. nov.; Calocarididae Ortmann, 1891 with Ambiaxius Sakai & De Saint Laurent, 1989, A. alcocki (McArdle, 1900); and Eiconaxiidae Sakai & Ohta, 2005 with Eiconaxius Bate, 1888, E. kumejimaensis sp. nov.

A new Hadenini genus and species, Irene gen. n. litanga sp. n. (Figs 1–4, 13, 15), are described from China. This is the third paper since 2013 dealing with members of the Polia-complex in the Himalayan region and particularly the mountainous areas of Central China (Saldaitis et al., 2013, 2016). The discovery of a new genus within the Polia genera group again demonstrates the fascinating and surprising diversity of the region. The clarification of the relationship between the genera-subgenera and species belonging to Polia genera group, (e. g. Polia Ochsenheimer, 1816, Kollariana Hacker & Kautt, 1996 [1997], Haderonia Staudinger, 1895, Tricheurois Hampson, 1905, Pachetra Guenée, 1841 and Ctenoceratoda Varga, 1992) remains unclear and disputable, especially in the diverse Himalayan-Sino-Tibetan region. Hopefully our studies will stimulate further exploration and promote the realization of a comprehensive review of this interesting complex.

A new species of the Indonemoura fujianensis complex of in the genus Indonemoura Baumann 1975 (Plecoptera: Nemouridae), I. wangae sp. nov. is described from the Shennongjia National Natural Reserve, Hubei Province of Central China. This new taxon is compared with other related members of the I. fujianensis complex. The female of I. auriformis Li & Yang, 2008 is positively associated based on mating pairs recently collected. In the original description, the female of this was erroneously associated and is considered now as an unidentified Indonemoura female herein.
