Two new species of Diphya Nicolet, 1849 (Araneae, Tetragnathidae) from Southwest China.

ABSTRACT: Two new species of tetragnathid spiders from Guizhou and Sichuang provinces of China are described: Diphyaguiyang J. Zhang & H. Yu, sp. nov. (♂♀) and Diphyaweimiani J. Zhang & H. Yu, sp. nov. (♀). Detailed descriptions, diagnoses, and photographs are provided for these two species, as well as a key and a distribution map for Chinese Diphya species. DNA barcodes (a partial fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene, COI) of both new species were obtained for species delimitation, matching of different sexes, and future use in molecular studies.

Taxonomic notes on two sibling species of Metellina from Asia (Araneae, Tetragnathidae).

Project description:Two sibling species, Metellina orientalis (Spassky, 1932) and M. kirgisica (Bakhvalov, 1974), occurring in the Middle East and Central Asia are redescribed and their distributions mapped. The previously unknown male of M. kirgisica is described for the first time. Stridulatory files on male chelicera of Metellina are also documented for the first time. The occurrence of M. kirgisica in Azerbaijan and Tajikistan and the presence of M. orientalis in Turkey are confirmed.

Two New Species of Sidera (Hymenochaetales, Basidiomycota) from Southwest China.

Project description:Two new wood-inhabiting fungi, Sidera salmonea sp. Nov. and S. tibetica sp. Nov. in the order Hymenochaetales from southwest China, are described and illustrated based on molecular and morphological evidence. They were found on gymnosperm wood that is rotten and charred. The characteristics of S. salmonea include annual, resupinate basidioma, salmon pores with distinctly white margins, angular pores (7-9 per mm), a dimitic hyphal system, and lunate basidiospores that are 3-3.5 × 0.9-1.1 μm. The characteristics of S. tibetica include annual, resupinate basidioma with a white to cream fresh pore surface that becomes cream to honey-yellow and shiny when dry, round pores (7-8 per mm), a dimitic hyphal system, and lunate basidiospores that measure 2.9-3.1 × 1-1.1 μm. A phylogenetic analysis based on the combined 2-locus dataset (5.8S + nuclear large subunit RNA (nLSU)) shows that the two species are members of the genus Sidera, and they are morphologically compared with related species, respectively. This paper provides a key to the identification of 16 accepted species of Sidera that are found throughout the world.

Two new species of Rhizoplaca (Lecanoraceae) from Southwest China.

Project description:In this study, two new species, Rhizoplacaadpressa Y. Y. Zhang & Li S. Wang and R.auriculata Y. Y. Zhang, Li S. Wang & Printzen, are described from Southwest China, based on their morphology, phylogeny and chemistry. In phylogeny, the two new species are monophyletic, and sister to each other within Rhizoplacachrysoleuca-complex. Rhizoplacaadpressa is characterized by its placodioid and closely adnate thallus, pale green and heavily pruinose upper surface, narrow (ca. 1 mm) and white free margin on the lower surface of marginal squamules, the absence of a lower cortex, and its basally non-constricted apothecia with orange discs that turn reddish-brown at maturity. Rhizoplacaauriculata is characterized by its squamulose to placodioid thallus, yellowish green and marginally pruinose squamules, wide (1-3 mm) and bluish-black free margin on the lower surface of marginal squamules, the absence of a lower cortex, and its basally constricted apothecia with persistently orange discs. Rhizoplacaadpressa and R.auriculata share the same secondary metabolites of usnic and placodiolic acids.
