Redescription of Tipula octomaculata Savchenko, with notes on related Holarctic species (Diptera, Tipulidae)
2007
Tipula (Pterelachisus) octomaculata Savchenko, 1964 (Diptera, Tipulidae) has hitherto been known only from the type locality in north-western Russia, and no material besides the holotype male has been available for study. In this article we report T. octomaculata for the first time from Finland, redescribe the species and compare its morphological characters with those of related Nearctic species (T. trivittata Say, T. angulata Loew, T. entomophthorae Alexander). The Finnish finding locality in Ks: Taivalkoski, North boreal ecoregion, is briefly discussed.
A new species of the genusCrassicaudaLeiper et Atkinson, 1914 (Nematoda: Spiruroidea) from the penis ofGlobicephala melas(Traill, 1809) (Cetacea: Glo…
1990
The examination of a male long-finned pilot whale (Globicephala melas) stranded at Cullera (Spanish Mediterranean coast) resulted in the finding of nematodes of the genus Crassicauda parasitising the penis. Pathologies associated with these worms were observed and are described here. The morphometric and morphological study of these helminths revealed that they represent a new species, Crassicauda carbonelli n. sp., which differs from other species of the genus Crassicauda in body size, cephalic morphology and spicule size in the males. Crassicauda sp. described by Dollfus (1968) must be ascribed to C. carbonelli n. sp. The taxonomy, morphometric variability of the eggs, site in the hosts, …
Contribution to the identification of Dianthus rupicola (Caryophyllaceae) subspecies using morphological and molecular approaches
2017
The systematic relationships between the five different subspecies actually recognized within Dianthus rupicola (subsp. aeolicus , subsp. bocchorianus , subsp. hermaensis, subsp. lopadusanus and subsp. rupicola ), were assessed by means of morphometric and molecular analysis. Our results highlighted the molecular differences between the five subspecies of D. rupicola and a morphological differentiation of four groups being D. rupicola subsp. aeolicus and D. rupicola subsp. rupicola partly overlapping. At the present state of knowledge, a subspecific status seems the most appropriate for all the recognized subspecies of D. rupicola . The names D. aeolicus , D. bisignanii var. virescens , D. …
Strongyloides mascomaisp. n. (Strongyloididae) un nouveau Nématode parasite deRana pereziSeoane, 1885 (Amphibia : Ranidae) de l’est de l’Espagne
1989
SUMMARY. Description and differentiation of the parasite stage of Strongyloides mascomai sp. n. (Nematoda: Strongyloididae), an cloacal parasite of Rana perezi Seoane, 1885 in the east of Iberian Peninsula (Spain). The new species is charac-terized for its large length of the oesophagus, the morphology of its stoma and the moderate spiralation of the ovaries of the female parasite.
Nomenclatural notes on the Polycarpon tetraphyllum aggregate (Caryophyllaceae)
2015
Nomenclatural notes on the aggregate Polycarpon tetraphyllum (Caryophyllaceae) are discussed. The names Hagaea alsinifolia, H. polycarpoides, Poycarpon colomense, P. diphyllum, and P. floribundum are typified, respectively, on an iconography by Boccone (lectotype), and specimens preserved in PAL (neotype), JE (lectotype), MA (Herbarium Cavanilles, lectotype), and COI (Herbarium Willkomm, lectotype). For the nomenclatural purposes, the names P. bivonae (nom. nov. pro P. polycarpoides), P. herniarioides (holotype in K), P. peploides (nom. superfl. et nom. illeg. according to the Arts. 52.1 and 52.2 of the ICN), P. polycarpoides subsp. catalaunicum (holotype in BC), and P. rotundifolium (holot…
Verrucoccum (Dothideomycetes, Dictyosporiaceae), a new genus of lichenicolous fungi on Lobaria s. lat. for the Dothidea hymeniicola species complex
2021
Two lichenicolous fungi, one growing on the thallus of Lobaria pulmonaria in the United Kingdom (Scotland) and the other in apothecia of Lobaria linita and L. oregana in northwestern North America (Alaska and British Columbia) and northeast Asia (Russian Far East, Khabarovsk Krai), show similarities to the species originally described as Dothidea hymeniicola (later transferred to Polycoccum s. lat and Endococcus) from a Lobaria s. lat. species in Central America. Critical morphological comparison showed that, despite the superficial resemblance between Alaskan, Canadian, Russian, and Scottish collections and the holotype of Dothidea hymeniicola, they can be distinguished by detailed microsc…
CRYPTIC SPECIES RELATED TO DALDINIA CONCENTRICA AND D. ESCHSCHOLZII, WITH NOTES ON D. BAKERI
2004
Daldinia macaronesica (from the Canary Islands and Madeira), D. palmensis (from the Canary Islands), D. martinii and D. raimundi (from Sicily), and D. vanderguchtiae (from Jersey, Channel Islands) spp. nov., are described, based on new combinations of teleomorphic and anamorphic characters. They all resemble the pantropical D. eschscholzii and/or the European D. concentrica with regard to teleomorphic characters and secondary metabolite profiles generated by analytical HPLC. The status of the newly described taxa was established by SEM of ascospores and microscopic studies of their anamorphs in comparison with various materials of the aforementioned known species. HPLC and SEM studies on th…
On Adcatomus ciudadus Karsch 1880, a remarkable spider species from Lima, with comments on South American Sparassidae (Arachnida, Araneae)
2008
The ♂-holotype of Adcatomus ciudadus Karsch 1880 was located in the Zoologisches Museum der Humboldt-Universitat Berlin and recognized as a representative of the spider family Sparassidae. A redescription of the holotype is given and the systematic position of the species is discussed. A review on taxonomic work on South American Sparassidae is also given. Der ♂-Holotyp von Adcatomus ciudadus Karsch 1880 wurde im Zoologischen Museum der Humboldt-Universitat Berlin ausfindig gemacht und als Vertreter der Spinnenfamilie Sparassidae identifiziert. Der Holotyp wird beschrieben und seine systematische Stellung diskutiert. Es wird ein zusammenfassender Ruckblick auf taxonomische Arbeiten uber sud…
An inventory of the names of vascular plants endemic to Italy, their loci classici and types
2015
The census of the loci classici of 1,400 Italian endemic vascular plants (i.e. not thriving elsewhere with the exception of Corsica and Malta) is here presented and described. The effective place of publication of accepted names, basionyms and homotypic synonyms were identified and critically verified. This often resulted in some change in authorship attribution and, in seven cases, in validation problems (Asperula cynanchica var. lactea var. nov., A. lactea comb. nov., Biscutella laevigata subsp. raffaelliana subsp. nov., Ferulago nodosa subsp. geniculata comb. & stat. nov., Limonium tineoi comb. nov., L. usticanum sp. nov., Noccaea torreana comb. nov.). The geographic information on t…
Redescription of Bedotella armata from Biscay Bay, northern Spain, the type species of Bedotella Stechow, 1913 (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa, Lafoeidae), with …
2007
The circalittoral and bathyal genus Bedotella, comprising a unique known species endemic to the North European Atlantic (Lusitanian Province), Bedotella armata (Pictet, C. & M. Bedot, 1900) is redescribed based on a specimen from the Bay of Biscay, North Spain. As the holotype of the species, originally described as Campanularia armata, is sterile and incomplete, the present re-description includes new data concerning its morphometry, including gonothecae, and cnidom, as well as all the literature. The diagnostic characters of Bedotella armata are the presence of globular nematothecae, the campanuliform hydrothecae, and flabelliform, gigantic gonothecae. We corroborate the hypotheses of aff…
