Abstract

. The Udea species (currently six) present in the Afrotropical realm are revised based on adults. Phlyctaenia epicoena Meyrick, 1937 syn. nov. is found to be identical with U. ferrugalis (Hübner, 1796). Udea delineatalis (Walker in Melliss 1875) and U. hageni Viette, 1952 are redescribed. In addition, five species of Udea are described as new to science: U. kirinyaga Mally sp. nov. from Mount Kenya in Kenya, U. nicholsae Mally sp. nov., U. meruensis Mally sp. nov. and U. momella Mally sp. nov., all three from Mount Meru in Tanzania, and U. namaquana Karisch & Mally sp. nov. from South Africa. A phylogenetic analysis based on morphological data and mitochondrial COI as well as the nuclear wingless gene, where available, places the new species in the U. ferrugalis species group, which also comprises U. ferrugalis as well as U. delineatalis from the oceanic island of St. Helena. Another island endemic, Udea hageni from Tristan da Cunha, is found to be a member of the U. numeralis group, as sister to U. numeralis. An additional synapomorphic character of the genitalia is recognised for the U. ferrugalis group. Udea infuscalis (Zeller, 1852) and U. melanostictalis (Hampson in Poulton 1916) are misplaced in Udea and transferred to Pyraustinae, as Lirabotys infuscaliscomb. nov. and Achyra melanostictaliscomb. nov., respectively. Adults, tympanic organs, and genitalia of both sexes, where available, are illustrated. A checklist summarises the now eight Afrotropical Udea species.

1845年在法国杜蓬切尔发现的非洲热带卢旺达海茅属Revision，附U. ferrugalis (h bner, 1796)组五新种记述(鳞翅目，Crambidae, Spilomelinae)

。在非洲热带地区存在的乌迪亚物种(目前有6种)是根据成虫进行修订的。Phlyctaenia epicoena Meyrick, 1937 syn11 .发现与U. ferrugalis (h bner, 1796)相同。重新描述了Udea delineatalis (Walker in Melliss 1875)和U. hageni Viette, 1952。此外，乌地亚的五个物种被描述为科学上的新物种:来自肯尼亚肯尼亚山的U. kirinyaga Mally sp. 11，来自坦桑尼亚梅鲁山的U. nicholsae Mally sp. 11, U. meruensis Mally sp. 11和U. momella Mally sp. 11，以及来自南非的U. namaquana Karisch & Mally sp. 11。基于形态学数据和线粒体COI以及核无翅基因的系统发育分析，将新物种定位于U. ferrugalis物种群，该物种群还包括U. ferrugalis和U. delineatalis，来自圣赫勒拿岛的海洋岛屿。来自特里斯坦-达库尼亚岛的另一个岛的地方病乌迪亚·哈格尼被发现是美国numeralis组的成员，是美国numeralis的姐妹。另一种生殖的突触性特征被认为是为U. ferrugalis组。Udea infuscalis (Zeller, 1852)和U. melanotictalis (Hampson in Poulton, 1916)在Udea中被放错位置，并被转移到Pyraustinae，称为Lirabotys infuscaliscomb。11月11日和黑颌飞虱。11月,分别。成人，鼓室器官和两性生殖器，如有可用的，说明。一份清单总结了现在的8种非洲热带乌地亚物种。

期刊介绍： Nota Lepidopterologica is the scientific, peer-reviewed journal of the Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica (SEL). It publishes original contributions to the study of mainly but not exclusively Palaearctic Lepidoptera, especially on taxonomy, morphology/anatomy, phylogenetics, biogeography, ecology, behaviour, and conservation, but also on any other aspects of lepidopterology. All articles are published in English, with the possibility of having the summary written in other languages. All submitted manuscripts are subject to peer-review by the leading specialists for the respective topic. The journal is published in open access high-resolution PDF, semantically enriched HTML and machine-readable XML versions. All papers can be freely copied, downloaded, printed and distributed at no charge. Authors and readers are thus encouraged to post the pdf files of published papers on homepages or elsewhere to expedite distribution. Publication is free for the SEL members and there is no charge for color.
