Abstract
Four new genera of the subtribe Puranina, Purapurana gen. nov., Philipurana gen. nov., Metapurana gen. nov., and Indopurana gen. nov., are described. Purana Distant, 1905 is redescribed accordingly. Many species so far in Purana are transferred to the new genera to have new combinations. Metapurana vesperalba (Boulard, 2009) comb. nov., syn. nov. is synonymized with Metapurana parvituberculata (Kos and Gogala, 2000) comb. nov. Paratanna Lee, 2012 is transferred to Leptosemiina Lee, 2013.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity (previous title was Journal of Korean Nature) is an official journal of National Science Museum of Korea (NSMK) and Korea National Arboretum (KNA). The scope of journal is wide and multidisciplinary that publishes original research papers, review articles, as well as conceptual, technical and methodological papers on all aspects of biological diversity-its description, analysis and conservation, and its application by humankind. This wide and multidisciplinary journal aims to provide both scientists and practitioners in conservation theory, policy and management with comprehensive and applicable information. However, papers should not be submitted that deal with microorganisms, except in invited paper. Articles that are focused on the social and economical aspects of biodiversity will be normally not accepted.
