Redescription of the Brazilian stick insect Pseudophasma cambridgei Kirby (Phasmatodea: Pseudophasmatidae), with first description of the female and egg

Abstract: The stick insect Pseudophasma cambridgei Kirby, 1904 was described from a single male collected in the region of Santarém, state of Pará, Brazil. Based on specimens recently collected near the type locality, the species is redescribed here, including the first description of the female and egg. In addition, Pseudophasma septemtrionalis Toledo Piza, 1977 is synonymised with P. cambridgei, and morphological features of the genus Pseudophasma are discussed.

“…This number of species is expected to be underestimated, representing less than half of the diversity of the Brazilian Phasmatodea (Zompro 2012) as a consequence of a small number of researchers studying stick insects in Brazil. The state of art of this group in the country was recently reviewed by Madeira-Ott et al (2020) and new initiatives have been raising efforts in order to broaden the knowledge of the Brazilian Phasmatodea, especially regarding taxonomy, morphology and biology (Chiquetto-Machado 2018;Heleodoro andRafael 2019, 2020;Chiquetto-Machado et al 2020Crispino et al 2020;Chiquetto-Machado and Cancello 2021;Ghirotto 2021;Heleodoro 2022).…”

“…In the 21 st century, and especially in the last five years, the study of Phasmatodea has been intensified in Brazil with the publication of works addressing mainly taxonomic and morphological aspects (see e.g. Chiquetto-Machado and Albertoni, 2017;Chiquetto-Machado, 2018;Rafael, 2019, 2020;Crispino et al, 2020). Madeira-Ott et al (2020) detailed the state of knowledge about Brazilian stick insects, synthesizing the main researches that have been carried out on the group in the country and drawing attention to aspects on which there is still very little study, such as the biology and bionomy of Brazilian species.…”

“…Após as suas obras, a fauna brasileira voltou a ser abordada somente em contribuições esporádicas, já no século XXI, restritas a um catálogo de material tipo depositado em coleções brasileiras (Zompro & Domenico 2005), um levantamento de espécies da Serra do Espinhaço, Minas Gerais (Araujo & Garraffoni 2012), e algumas descrições ou redescrições isoladas (Zompro & Adis 2001;Kumagai & Fonseca 2009;Lima et al 2013). Esse cenário, porém, parece estar começando a mudar, como sugerido pela recente publicação de um número razoável de contribuições ao conhecimento da fauna brasileira de Phasmatodea, incluindo descrições e redescrições de espécies (Chiquetto- Machado & Albertoni 2017;Heleodoro et al 2017a,b;Chiquetto-Machado 2018;Chiquetto-Machado et al 2018;Heleodoro & Rafael 2018, 2019) e a inclusão de alguns táxons brasileiros como parte de duas revisões taxonômicas mais abrangentes (Hennemann et al 2016;2018).…”

“…As descrições e caracteres filogenéticos relacionados à morfologia externa seguem, de forma geral, a terminologia comumente utilizada em Phasmatodea (como, por exemplo, em Gottardo & Vallotto 2014, Hennemann et al 2016, 2018e Chiquetto-Machado 2018. Optouse, no entanto, por não se utilizar o termo "póculo" (em inglês, "poculum"), que normalmente se refere apenas à região posterior distintamente côncava da placa subgenital do macho (como utilizado por Gottardo & Vallotto op.…”
