Twenty-four new species of Polycentropus (Trichoptera, Polycentropodidae) from Brazil.

Project description:Twenty-four new species of the caddisfly genus Polycentropus (Insecta: Trichoptera: Polycentropodidae) occurring in Brazil are diagnosed, described, and the male genitalia of each are illustrated. Eighteen of the new species are placed in the Polycentropus jorgenseni species complex of the Polycentropus gertschi group of New World Polycentropussensu lato. Furthermore, 6 new species within the Polycentropus gertschi group (Polycentropus ancistrussp. n., Polycentropus boraceiasp. n., Polycentropus cariocasp. n., Polycentropus froehlichisp. n., Polycentropus galharadasp. n., and Polycentropus graciosasp. n.) are placed in an informal diagnostic cluster of species with Polycentropus urubici Holzenthal and Almeida. Ten of the other Polycentropus gertschi group species form a second cluster of diagnostically similar species, the Polycentropus soniae cluster (Polycentropus caaetesp. n., Polycentropus carolaesp. n., Polycentropus cheliceratussp. n., Polycentropus fluminensissp. n., Polycentropus itatiaiasp. n., Polycentropus minerosp. n., Polycentropus santateresaesp. n., Polycentropus soniaesp. n., Polycentropus tripuisp. n., and Polycentropus virginiaesp. n.). Two of the remaining 8 new species are included in the Polycentropus jorgenseni species complex (Polycentropus cipoensissp. n. and Polycentropus verruculussp. n.), while the remaining 6 are unique and cannot be placed in one of the groups at this time (Polycentropus acinaciformissp. n., Polycentropus amphirhamphussp. n., Polycentropus cachoeirasp. n., Polycentropus inusitatussp. n., Polycentropus paprockiisp. n. and Polycentropus rosalysaesp. n.).

New species of caddisflies (Trichoptera, Ecnomidae, Polycentropodidae, Psychomyiidae) from Mekong tributaries, Laos.

Project description:Four new species of caddisflies are added to the fauna of Mekong River, Laos. Described and illustrated are Ecnomus petchanaae sp. nov. and E. boonsawaengae sp. nov. (Ecnomidae), Polyplectropus proukaewi sp. nov. (Polycentropodidae), and Psychomyia srichanai sp. nov. (Psychomyiidae) from tributaries of the Mekong River, Laos. Ecnomus petchanaae sp. nov. can be distinguished by the characters of the superior appendages, which are slender and club-shaped in lateral view. In E. boonsawaengae sp. nov., the inferior appendages are tubular with a concave incision subapically and truncated apex. Polyplectropus proukaewi sp. nov. has the distal process of the dorsal branch of the inferior appendage close to the base of the inferior appendages and the length of the process is half of inferior appendages. Psychomyia srichanai sp. nov. can be distinguished by the structure of the dorsal branches of the harpagones and apical sclerite. The outer branches of the harpago in the latter species are bifurcated and bent 90° degrees outward, and the inner dorsal branches of harpago are curved outward. The apical sclerite is indiscernible.

New <i>Cernotina</i> caddisflies from the Ecuadorian Amazon (Trichoptera: Polycentropodidae).

Project description:Two new species of the caddisfly genus Cernotina Ross, 1938 (Polycentropodidae) are described from the lowland Amazon basin of Ecuador, Cernotina tiputini, new species, and Cernotina waorani, new species. These represent the first new species described from this region. We also record from Ecuador for the first time Cernotina hastilis Flint, previously known from Tobago, and present new Ecuadorian locality records for C. cygnea Flint, and C. lobisomem Santos & Nessimian. The homology of the intermediate appendage of the male genitalia of this genus is established. The region surveyed is under severe environmental threat from logging, mining, and crude oil extraction, making the description of the biodiversity of the region imperative.

Three new species of caddisflies (Trichoptera, Hydroptilidae, Polycentropodidae, Leptoceridae) from Khon Phapheng Waterfall, the Mekong River, Laos.

Project description:The Mekong River is a hotspot area for freshwater biodiversity, but caddisfly diversity is largely understudied. Three new species of caddisflies from three different families are described and illustrated from Khon Phapheng Waterfall, the Mekong River, Laos; Orthotrichiachoengthongi Malicky & Laudee, sp. nov. (Hydroptilidae), Pseudoneureclipsiskhonphaphengensis Malicky & Thamsenanupap, sp. nov. (Polycentropodidae), and Setodeskarrilai Malicky & Laudee, sp. nov. Orthotrichiachoengthongi Malicky & Laudee, sp. nov. can be differentiated from the most similar OrthotrichiatritonMalicky 2008 by the specific shape of segment X which is long and tubular, pointed apically and curved inward then immediately upward in dorsal view. Pseudoneureclipsiskhonphaphengensis Malicky & Thamsenanupap, sp. nov. differs from the similar P.kaineus Malicky & Bunlue in Malicky et al. 2004 by the shape of the inferior appendages that are usually broad, almost circular in lateral view. Setodeskarrilai Malicky & Laudee, sp. nov. is mainly different to S.omphale Malicky & Changthong in Malicky et al. 2004 by the distal part of segment X which has a brush-like process.

Complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of the caddisfly <i>Neucentropus mandjuricus</i> (Trichoptera: Polycentropodidae).

Project description:We have sequenced and annotated the complete mitogenome of Neucentropus mandjuricus Martynov, 1907, a monotypic genus of Polycentropodidae with controversial taxonomic status. The complete mitogenome of N. mandjuricus is 15,020 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a non-coding control region. The maximum-likelihood and Bayesian's inference trees based on 13 protein-coding genes of 23 trichopteran species show that N. mandjuricus clusters together with the other polycentropodid Plectrocnemia sp. with high support value. This study provides a basis for further study on mitogenome and phylogenetics of the Polycentropodidae.

Distribution of two rare taxa of caddisflies (Trichoptera: Rhyacophilidae, Polycentropodidae) from the Republic of Kosovo.

Project description:BackgroundThe knowledge about distribution, ecology and species composition of caddisflies of the Balkan Peninsula is still not complete. The ongoing investigations of the last years highlight this area as an important hotspot of caddisfly diversity. Polycentropus ierapetra slovenica has been considered a narrow range endemic of Slovenia and surrounding areas. Rhyacophila aurata, a species known from many parts of Europe, according to the current knowledge, is absent from a large part of the Balkan Peninsula.New informationIn this paper, we present records of these two rare taxa of Trichoptera from the Republic of Kosovo with exact distribution data, based on sampling carried out randomly during 2014 and 2017. Polycentropus ierapetra slovenica was found in several streams in Bjeshkët e Nemuna Mountains and Karadak Mountains. Rhyacophila aurata was found during this investigation at a single locality in Bjeshkët e Nemuna Mountains.The unexpected finding of these two taxa in Kosovo greatly enlarges their known distribution area and makes a contribution towards the better knowledge of distributional patterns of these rare taxa of caddisflies in this part of Europe.
