AbstractEnneastigma is a small genus of myopinine anthomyiids which comprises five species in the Mediterranean subregion (E. compressum Stein, E. rarum sp. n., E. rufitibia sp. n., E. triplex Loew, E. triseriatum Stein) and two species in SE Palearctic part of China (E. pilosiventrosum Fan & Chen, E. shanghaiensis Fan & Chen). All species appear to be univoltine and only active during the cooler parts of the season. The larvae may all be coprophagous. The Mediterranean species are revised with keys to males and females and illustrated descriptions of males, females and eggs. One lectotype is designated. A cladistic analysis was conducted which also included the Chinese species. This resulted in a single, most parsimonious phylogeny. The resulting area cladogram was used to assess the alternative methods for estimating ancestral areas as proposed recently by K. Bremer and F. Ronquist. It is concluded that the best results are obtained by using a refined Ronquist analysis.

A New Species

A new species of Chone (Sabellidae) from the coast of Ustica Island (Mediterranean Sea, north of Sicily) is described. The species, named Chone usticensis sp. nov., is similar to another Mediterranean species, C. filicaudata, in having a long pygidial filiform appendage, but is distinct from this species especially in the peristomium, collar, and in thoracic paleate chaetae shape. A discussion on the presence of the radiolar appendages within the genus Chone is also given.

Three New Species

The European and Mediterranean species of the Acalyptris platani and A. staticis groups are revised, with respectively four and six species. Three new species are described: A. pistaciae Van Nieukerken sp. n. (from Greece, Cyprus and Turkey, on Pistacia) in the platani group, A. limoniastri Van Nieukerken sp. n. (from Algeria and Tunisia, associated with Limoniastrum) and A. lesbia Van Nieukerken & Hull sp. n. (from Greece: Lesvos, on Limonium gmelini) in the staticis group. Lectotypes are selected for A. minimella (Rebel, 1924) and A. staticis (Walsingham, 1908). The European species of the A. platani group are leafminers on Anacardiaceae, Platanaceae and Loranthaceae, the species of the A. staticis group feed on Plumbaginaceae, except A. pyrenaica A. & Z. Laštůvka, for which the host is unknown, but likely to belong to another family. Immatures are described for five species, final instar larvae and pupal exuviae for all species in the A. platani group and for A. lesbia. Larvae and pupae of the latter species differ markedly from the A. platani group. Recorded parasitoids are listed. CO1 barcodes are provided for seven species. The groups are phylogenetically not very close; the monophyly of Acalyptris and the phylogeny on the basis of CO1 (mt-DNA) sequences are discussed.
