Abstract
Eccritotarsini, the largest tribe of Bryocorinae with 115 genera and more than 625 species worldwide, is most diverse in the New World, where most of its genera and species occur. Among these genera, Neella, Neoneella, Adneella, Paraneella, Proneella, and the recently described Egerocoris and Thomasomiris have been recognized as part of the ‘Neella–Neoneella complex’ by previous authors. In this contribution, the monophyly of the complex is tested and a phylogenetic analysis is carried out based on morphological characters. As a result, the genera Neella, Neoneella, Proneella, and Adneella are diagnosed and redescribed, the new genera Globicephalomirisgen. nov., Laterocavocorisgen. nov., Lelenagen. nov., Naellegen. nov., and Puncticollusgen. nov. are delimited and described, and the following new combinations are proposed: A. cuneatacomb. nov., A. decarloicomb. nov., A. explanatacomb. nov., A. frumentariacomb. nov., A. nigronotatacomb. nov., G. carmelitanacomb. nov., G. oaxacanacomb. nov., G. pallescenscomb. nov., G. veracruzanacomb. nov., Laterocavocoris lutescenscomb. nov., Lelena cinnamomeacomb. nov., Lelena guianacomb. nov., Lelena unicolorcomb. nov., Naelle ecuatorianacomb. nov., Naelle itacoaiensiscomb. nov., Puncticollus anduzeeicomb. nov., and Puncticollus rondoniacomb. nov. Several novel characters, mainly from male genitalia, are included in the generic diagnosis and descriptions.
期刊介绍:
The Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society publishes papers on systematic and evolutionary zoology and comparative, functional and other studies where relevant to these areas. Studies of extinct as well as living animals are included. Reviews are also published; these may be invited by the Editorial Board, but uninvited reviews may also be considered. The Zoological Journal also has a wide circulation amongst zoologists and although narrowly specialized papers are not excluded, potential authors should bear that readership in mind.
