Abstract

Species of the mythicomyiid genus Platypygus are mainly known from Eurasia, but are also found in Africa and North America, with only one species recorded from China. In this study, we describe two new species from China, Platypygus cangyuanensis sp. nov. and Platypygus wenkaii sp. nov. The DNA barcode sequences of both new species were generated. Species validity was supported by morphological characters, phylogenetic analyses, and genetic distance of COI barcodes. A key to all Chinese species of Platypygus is provided.

文章题目中国低鸭嘴兽二新种记述（双翅目：绵蝇科：绵蝇科）

鸭嘴兽属（mythicomyiid genus Platypygus）的种类主要来自欧亚大陆，但在非洲和北美也有发现，只有一种来自中国。本文描述了两种来自中国的新种——沧源鸭嘴兽（Platypygus沧源鸭嘴兽）和文凯鸭嘴兽（Platypygus wenkaii sp.十一月），并生成了这两个新种的DNA条形码序列。COI条形码的形态特征、系统发育分析和遗传距离支持物种有效性。提供了所有中国鸭嘴兽种的钥匙。

期刊介绍： Zoologischer Anzeiger - A Journal of Comparative Zoology is devoted to comparative zoology with a special emphasis on morphology, systematics, biogeography, and evolutionary biology targeting all metazoans, both modern and extinct. We also consider taxonomic submissions addressing a broader systematic and/or evolutionary context. The overall aim of the journal is to contribute to our understanding of the organismic world from an evolutionary perspective. The journal Zoologischer Anzeiger invites suggestions for special issues. Interested parties may contact one of the editors.
