“…The discovery of this new species, which is restricted to mountain tops in the Cantillana Mountain Range in Central Chile, highlights the importance of this site in terms of its unique biodiversity. Cantillana harbours several taxa endemic to the Mediterranean region of Chile Teiller 2009, Romero-Gárate andTeillier 2014) and several new species of insects, lizards and amphibians have been described over the recent years (Vaz-de-Mello and Halffter 2006;Núñez 2007;Zúñiga-Reinoso and Cid-Arcos 2013;Charrier et al 2015) in the area. Rock communities have been rarely studied in Chile (García 2010).…”

A new species, Leucheria cantillanensissp. nov., endemic to the coastal mountain range of Central Chile, is described. By using both nDNA and cpDNA, phylogenetic relationships of the new species were investigated. This new species belongs to the acaulescent/subacaulescent clade of Leucheria, which is congruent with the morphology of the species. A detailed description, distribution map, insights about its habitat, conservation status, and illustrations are provided. An updated key for acaulescent/subacaulescent species of Leucheria from Central Chile is also given.

“…nov. y que morfológicamente es cercana a la especie C. paulseni y en ningún caso cercana a C. laticollissensu stricto. En la descripción, se detallan tanto las característica morfológicas externas como del aedeagus, rasgos ampliamente utilizado para diferenciar las especies de Callyntra (ver Flores & Vidal, 2000a;2000b;Zúñiga-Reinoso & Cid-Arcos, 2013;Aceituno & Guerrero, 2014).…”

“…La distribución del género en Chile, abarca desde 32° a los 39° latitud sur, y las especies se pueden encontrar en ambas cordilleras y terrazas costeras (Flores & Vidal, 2000a;2000b). A pesar de ser un grupo taxonómicamente antiguo y bien estudiado (ver Flores & Vidal, 2000a), recientemente se han descrito nuevas especies, como es el caso de C. hibrida (Zúñiga-Reinoso & Cid-Arcos, 2013), C. zambranoi y C. rufocastanea (Aceituno & Guerrero, 2014), C. pehuenche (Zúñiga-Reinoso & Cid-Arcos, 2015), teniendo en la actualidad 21 especies descritas (ver Flores & Vidal, 2000 a y b; Zúñiga-Reinoso & Cid-Arcos, 2013; Aceituno & Guerrero, 2014). Recientemente, se capturaron y revisaron ejemplares provenientes de la costa de la región V y VI de Chile, que tradicionalmente eran asignadas a Callyntra laticollis Philippi & Philippi, 1864 (Flores & Vidal, 2000a), pero que morfológicamente difi ere del material tipo de la especies.…”

Callyntra Solier, 1836, es un género endémico de Chile y Argentina que contiene 21 especies descritas hasta la fecha. Mediante recolecciones y revisión de material proveniente de la costa de las Regiones V y VI, se encontró con especímenes asignados a C. laticollis, pero que morfológicamente diferían de la especie asignada y del resto de las especies del género. Por lo tanto, en este artículo se describe C. inconsiderata sp. nov y se discute sobre su relación con otras especies de Callyntra, su variabilidad morfológica, dimorfi smo sexual y conservación.

“…Interestingly, S. nitidus is not the only beetle whose whole species distribution is restricted to this mountain. Cerro Poqui is also inhabited by other endemic insects, such as Callyntra hibrida (Zúñiga‐Reinoso & Arcos‐Cid, 2013), Protoanthicus poqui (Guerrero & Diéguez, 2018) and Licinoma poqui (Guerrero & Vidal, 2019). Multiple species from this area are currently threatened by habitat loss and potentially by the insect trade due to opportunistic overexploitation (Branch et al ., 2013), and those yet to be assessed might even be critically endangered, since they comply with geographic range thresholds of 10 km 2 , the estimated surface area of Cerro Poqui – increasing its importance as a privately owned protected area (Table 1).…”

1. Rediscovery should be a celebratory event, but caution must be taken when making it public. Collectible species previously thought to be extinct are generally rare, which continuously increases the commercial value every time an individual is collected until extinction. 2. This is the case with the recently rediscovered saproxylic beetle Sclerostomulus nitidus (Benesh, 1955), rediscovered in 2012, whose only known global population inhabits one sole mountain, Cerro Poqui, Chile. 3. We sampled 146 dead logs per year and found that abundance per log of Sclerostomulus nitidus decreased by 93% in a 5-year period (2013-2018) and estimated the probability of finding at least one individual is likely to approach zero by 2030 following a linear trend. 4. Sclerostomulus nitidus is listed as Critically Endangered by Chilean Law due to restricted geographic range, but we propose a need for new IUCN Red Listing resulting from our observations of ongoing population size reduction and the projected probabilities of finding an individual. 5. While in the field, we witnessed ongoing collection and so present evidence of online trade of Sclerostomulus nitidus. Therefore, to complement the study of the ecology of S. nitidus, we suggest a focus on unifying national and international policies regarding traded or trafficked species. 6. National policy might be up to speed, but international legislation regarding trading of wildlife, such as CITES, are outdated. Making national and international policy compatible would open possibilities for serious discussions with courier services regarding transparency and monitoring processes used to stop unfettered trading or trafficking to which recently rediscovered species are most vulnerable.
