Abstract

Halictophagidae is a strepsipteran family that parasitizes Orthoptera, Diptera, Blattodea and Hemiptera. To date, only 2 genera and 12 species have been recorded in China. In this study, we describe Coriophagus tigrilepus sp. nov., based on a male specimen collected from Hainan Province. This discovery represents the first record of both the genus Coriophagus and the subfamily Coriophaginae in China. The new species characterized by unique maxillary palpi, the absence of apical expansion on the forefemur, a slender R2 in the hindwing and a slender aedeagus with a short apical hook. Additionally, we provide an updated checklist of Halictophagidae species documented in China and present a revised key to all Coriophagus species worldwide.

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.
