“…It also supports Stebnicka's (2001a) division of New Zealand Saprosites into two groups, and suggestions that the species-group (1) inhabiting forested areas of North and South Islands represents the oldest core of the New Zealand fauna. It is most likely that continentally isolated forests retained old relicts dating back to the Gondwana period when these forests were continuous along the southern coastal margin of the megacontinent.…”

“…Nine valid species were recognised, divided a priori into two groups on the basis of their morphological similarities and differences. As Stebnicka (2001a) hypothesised, each group probably evolved in New Zealand from a different ancestral colonising species. Species-group (1) has close congeners in South America, while species-group (2) is most closely allied to Australian forms.…”

species-group (1). The discovery of additional New Zealand species apparently belonging to speciesgroup (1) permitted a test of the monophyly of the species-groups of Saprosites. I infer the phylogenetic relationships among New Zealand and South American species from a cladistic analysis of their morphological characters.Abstract A new Aphodiinae (Eupariini) species: Saprosites kaimai sp. nov. is described from North Island. This description increases the number of New Zealand members of Saprosites Redtenbacher to 10 recognised species. A cladistic analysis of the relationships among New Zealand and Neotropical species-groups of Saprosites is presented.

The euparine genus Cnematoplatys Schmidt, with seven species, is reviewed, including one species, C. yorkensis described as new. The generic diagnosis is revised, a lectotype of the type species, C. benardi Schmidt, is designated, a key to the species is provided and pertinent morphological details are illustrated. All data on taxonomy and available data on distribution are given, and a cladistic analysis is included to test the monophyly of the genus.

Abstract. The larval morphology of Aphodius (Plagiogonus) nanus Fairmaire, I860 and A. (P.) arenarius (Olivier, 1789) are described and redescribed, respectively. The common characters of both species, and the specific diagnostic characters are provided and discussed. The most important morphological characters of the larvae of Plagiogonus Mulsant, 1842 are the longitudinal align ment of the anterior setae of the stipes, the spatulate form of the posterior-lateral setae of the glossae of the hypopharynx, the slight development of the anal lobe slit, the form of the epitorma of the epipharynx, the slight sclerotization of the pternotormae and the relative length of second antennal segment. A key to the larvae of both species of Plagiogonus is presented along with life history data and the preferred food of these species. This study shows that A. arenarius and A. nanus feeding habits are closer to saprophagy than to coprophagy.
