Abstract

ABSTRACT A neotype is designated for Sicus indicus Kröber, 1940, the original type material of which is lost. This species is accepted as valid (rev. stat.) and is redescribed and illustrated from material collected in the Kashmir Valley of the Western Himalayas of India. Sicus indicus is distinguished from other Sicus Scopoli, 1763 species primarily by the shape and configuration of the female theca, and also by the long ventral setulae on the hind femur which are otherwise only shared with the very dissimilar S. ferrugineus (Linnaeus, 1761). Two other species with very similar-looking thecae in the female, i.e. S. abdominalis Kröber, 1915 and S. ogumae (Matsumara, 1916), are distinguished by differences in colouration, dusting and setulation, the latter particularly with respect to the small sclerite at the inner hind edge of the hind coxa. Sicus indicus is the only species of the genus definitely recorded from India to date, and is confined to the Himalayan region.

indicus的新种命名与重新描述Kröber, 1940(双翅目:蠓科)

摘要:为Sicus indicus Kröber, 1940年指定了一种新模式，其原始模式材料已经丢失。这个物种被认为是有效的(rev. stat.)，并从印度西喜马拉雅山脉克什米尔山谷收集的材料中重新描述和说明。Sicus indicus与其他Sicus Scopoli(1763年的物种)的区别主要在于雌性卵膜的形状和结构，以及后股骨上的长腹侧刚毛，而这些只与非常不同的S. ferrugineus共享(Linnaeus, 1761)。另外两种具有非常相似雌茎的物种，即S. abdominalis Kröber(1915)和S. ogumae (Matsumara, 1916)，其区别在于颜色、绒毛和固定的差异，后者特别是在后髋内侧后边缘的小巩膜。Sicus indicus是迄今为止印度唯一确定记录的属物种，并且仅限于喜马拉雅地区。
