Abstract

Chile has six species of Mecoptera, among which is Anabittacus iridipennis Kimmins, 1929. The genus Anabittacus Kimmins, 1929 (family Bittacidae) is monotypic and highly endemic to the southern part of the country. Here, we report two new localities for the rare A. iridipennis in southern Chile, specifically in the Los Ríos Region. Our new data extend the northern geographical limits of this species from the locality type. We provide a detailed diagnosis of this species and notes about the biology and the habitat of this enigmatic species.

智利特有种 Anabittacus iridipennis Kimmins, 1929（Mecoptera, Bittacidae）的分布范围扩展和北部界限，以及最新分布情况和生物学说明

智利有六种甲壳动物，其中包括 Anabittacus iridipennis Kimmins, 1929。Anabittacus Kimmins, 1929属（Bittacidae科）为单型，是智利南部的高度特有种。在此，我们报告了智利南部，特别是洛斯里奥斯大区罕见的 A. iridipennis 的两个新地点。我们的新数据从地点类型上扩展了该物种的北部地理界限。我们对这一物种进行了详细的诊断，并对这一神秘物种的生物学和栖息地进行了说明。

期刊介绍： Check List is a peer-reviewed online journal, devoted to publishing biodiversity data related to species’ geographic distribution. Thus, our primary mission if to fill the so-called Wallacean shortfall (Lomolino 2004) and to improve our knowledge of how life is distributed on the planet in order to better preserve it. These data are essential for studies on biogeography and provide a baseline for the conservation of biodiversity. The first step to undertaking effective conservation action is to maintain records of the distribution of species. Therefore, the journal was created from the need publish basic data on species distribution of any taxon in a timely and open manner, which are often neglected by traditional journals. Check List is a bimonthly peer-reviewed online journal, and will consider for publication: -distribution summaries of a supraspecific taxon in a broad geographic area (e.g., hemisphere, country, biome), as a review of the distribution of a taxon in the given area. -annotated list of species, of a given taxon in a strict geographic area, with comments and illustrations on the identifications, based on original data. -notes on the geographic distribution, reporting new records of one or more species while providing a complete overview on the known distribution of the treated taxa. -book reviews on books related to biodiversity, biogeography, niche modeling, or any associated field that uses species distribution as its primary data source. -opinions on relevant subjects for the journal’s mission and scope
