“…Therefore, we assume that they are typical cool-adapted insects. The cool-adapted preference of Sinopanorpa species is similar to that of Cerapanorpa, which has been reported as a cold-adapted genus of Panorpidae Hua 2019, 2021;Gao et al 2020Gao et al , 2022. The cool-adapted preference makes the genus Sinopanorpa an ideal model to investigate the speciation and phylogeographic pattern of cold-adapted insects.…”

The scorpionfly genus Sinopanorpa Cai & Hua, 2008 is endemic to the mountain regions of central China, currently consisting of four species: Sinopanorpa tincta (Navás, 1931), S. digitiformis Huang & Hua, 2008, S. nangongshana Cai & Hua, 2008, and S. baokangensis Wang, 2021. Here, the genus is taxonomically reviewed, with descriptions of two new species: Sinopanorpa minshanicolasp. nov. from the Minshan Mountains and Sinopanorpa shennongjiaicasp. nov. from the Shennongjia Mountains, increasing the species number of the genus to six. An updated key to species of Sinopanorpa is provided.

“…Adult photographs were taken with a Nikon D7000 digital camera, and other images were taken using a Scientific Digital micrography system (ZEISS SteREO Discovery V20) equipped with an auto-montage imaging system (AxioCam IC). Morphological terminology follows Gao and Hua (2019) and Gao et al (2020).…”

1. Pleistocene climate changes played a significant role in the speciation of temperate insects. Cold-adapted species responding to past climatic events, however, remain rarely investigated in most groups of insects.2. We assessed the evolutionary history and speciation of the cold-adapted scorpionfly Cerapanorpa brevicornis (Hua and Li), endemic to the Qinling-Bashan Mountains and adjacent regions (QBMARs), based on one nuclear and three mitochondrial DNA gene markers.3. Two distinctly divergent lineages were found in C. brevicornis dating back to 0.56 Ma, approximately coinciding with the extra-long interglaciation (0.48-0.62 Ma) during the middle Pleistocene. Lineage I is widely distributed in the QBMARs, and Lineage II is confined to the 'sky islands' of the eastern Bashan Mountains (EBMs). The patch of 'alpine archipelagos' in the EBMs seems to function as interglacial microrefugia. In contrast, interglacial macrorefugia are located in the Qinling Mountains.4. These findings may highlight the essential role of postglacial warming in the speciation and generation of neo-endemic species through range contraction in cold-adapted species and may provide new insights into the mechanisms underlying the high endemism and species richness in the QBMARs.5. This study suggests that Lineage II can be treated as a good species acting as an indicator of climate change, and the 'sky islands' of the EBMs might be a high-priority region for alpine biodiversity conservation under global warming.

“…Panorpidae is the largest family of Mecoptera, accounting for 500 species in one extinct and eight extant genera, living mainly in the Northern Hemisphere (Wang & Hua, 2021). In this family, new taxa are regularly described (Bicha & Schiff, 2019;Gao et al, 2020;Wang & Gong, 2021). The biology of many species is well studied, but this does not apply to all regions and countries.…”

The study of the insect distribution in geographical areas is relevant since it is important in terms of understanding the global trend of biodiversity decline. The paper presents the results of a study on the distribution of six species of Panorpidae (Mecoptera), carried out in 2008, 2009, 2011, 2015, 2017–2020. One part of data was collected by the authors. Other material was provided by colleagues from 11 regions in Russia. In European Russia, six species of Panorpa are reliably known, namely Panorpa alpina, P. cognata, P. communis, P. germanica, P. hybrida, and P. vulgaris. The most common and frequently encountered species are P. communis (in 21 regions), P. hybrida (in 12 regions), P. vulgaris (in 11 regions), and P. cognata (in 11 regions). It is assumed that all studied species can be found in other regions of European Russia as a result of further investigations. Among the studied species, P. alpina and P. germanica are the rarest species, recorded from two and one regions, respectively. Panorpa vulgaris was found for the first time in Russia.
