Revision of Godartiana Forster (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae), with the description of a new species from northeastern Brazil

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A revision of Godartiana Forster, 1964 (Satyrinae: Euptychiina) is provided, including the description of a new species, G. amadoi Paluch, Zacca & Freitas sp. nov. from Bahia and Pernambuco, northeastern Brazil. Two genera, Cercyeuptychia L. Emmel, 1971 syn. nov. and Praefaunula Forster, 1964 syn. nov., are herein synonymised with Godartiana, based on morphological and molecular data from mitochondrial gene Cytochrome C Oxidase I and the nuclear genes GAPDH and RpS5. A new taxonomic arrangement is proposed for Godartiana, increasing to five the number of species known in this genus and also synonymising Euptychia liturata Butler, 1867 syn. nov. and E. vesper Butler, 1867 syn. nov. with G. armilla (Butler, 1867) comb. nov. The female genitalia of all species of Godartiana are described and illustrated, information is given on host plants and biology, and the previously unknown immature stages of G. muscosa are described and illustrated.

Taxonomic revision and cladistic analysis of the genusSophistaPlötz, 1879 (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae) with description of a new species from north-east Brazil

A new species of Sophista Pl€ otz, 1879 from north-east Brazil (Bahia) is described: Sophista spectrum Siewert, Zacca, Mielke & Casagrande sp. nov. Thracides aristoteles Westwood, 1852 is designated as lectotype. The following taxonomic arrangements are proposed: Sophista plinius Pl€ otz, 1882 stat. rest. [previously treated as a subspecies of Sophista aristoteles (Westwood, 1852)] and Sophista matto Evans, 1953 stat. nov. (originally described as a subspecies of Sophista latifasciata . Photos and illustrations of all taxa are provided, including the first description of the females of four species of Sophista. A catalogue, diagnosis, geographical distribution map, and a dichotomous key to the species of Sophista are also provided. The monophyly of Sophista was evaluated using a cladistics analysis based on morphological characters of the adults, and was recovered and supported by eight non-ambiguous synapomorphies.ADDITIONAL KEYWORDS: Carcharodini -Cladistic -Pyrginae -Taxonomy. same study, recognized four taxa of Sophista and, since then, no additional information has been provided to elucidate the true taxonomic status of the species of the genus. Here, we revise the taxonomy of Sophista and describe a new species from north-east Brazil. The monophyly of the genus was tested with the new and revalidated taxa. Detailed illustrations of the adults and male and female genitalia, diagnoses, taxonomic commentaries, host plants, distribution information, and a dichotomous identification key to the species of the genus are provided. MATERIAL AND METHODSWe examined more than 110 specimens from the following institutions: DZUP, Colecão Entomol ogica Pe.

“…To investigate dispersal patterns across the South American dry diagonal, we kept this area separate. We used distributional maps and observations, not always with primary geographic coordinates, from taxonomic revisions (Bristow 1981, 1982, 1991, Casagrande 2002, Furtado and Campos-Neto 2004, Penz 2008, 2009a, b, Garzón-Orduña and Penz 2009, Penz et al 2017), and also published butterfly inventories in Mesoamerica (DeVries 1983, 1994, Janzen and Hallwachs 2009, Basset et al 2015), Amazonia (Pereira Martins et al 2017), Cerrado (Pinheiro and Emery 2006, Emery et al 2006, Silva et al 2012, Pereira Martins et al 2017, Dickens et al 2019), Caatinga (Zacca and Bravo 2012), and the Atlantic Forest (Santos et al 2011, 2018, Pérez et al 2017, Melo et al 2019, Soldati et al 2019). We call this the presence/absence biogeographical dataset.…”

Regional species diversity is ultimately explained by speciation, extinction, and dispersal. Here we estimate dispersal and speciation rates in Neotropical rainforest biomes to propose an explanation for the distribution and diversity of extant butterfly species. We focus on the tribe Brassolini (owl butterflies and allies): a Neotropical group that comprises 17 genera and 108 species, most of them endemic to rainforest biomes. We infer a total-evidence species tree using the multispecies coalescent framework. By applying biogeographical stochastic mapping, we infer ancestral ranges and estimate rates of dispersal and cladogenesis at the scale of millions of years. We suggest that speciation in Mesoamerica and the northwestern flank of the Andes have only increased within the past 2 million years. In contrast, speciation in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest has been constant throughout the past 10 million years. The disparate species diversification dynamics may be partly explained by the geological and environmental history of each bioregion. Importantly, the dispersal rates into the Atlantic Forest and Mesoamerica plus NW Andes increased simultaneously in the middle-Miocene, suggesting that lineages from such regions have had comparable times for speciation despite their decoupled diversification dynamics. Diversification of extant Amazonian lineages, on the other hand, has episodically increased since the late Miocene, including a rise in speciation rate during the Pleistocene. Altogether, our results reveal a mosaic of biome-specific evolutionary histories within the Neotropics, where species have diversified rapidly (cradles: e.g., Mesoamerica), have accumulated gradually (museums: e.g., Atlantic Forest), or have alternately diversified and accumulated (e.g., Amazonia).
