Abstract
ABSTRACT The New Zealand psyllid fauna is characterised by a large number of endemic Triozidae. These species have been subject to changes in generic placement through their taxonomic history. Powellia Maskell, 1879, has been considered by various authors as either a valid genus, or as a synonym of the cosmopolitan genus Trioza Foerster, 1848, including by Maskell himself. In this note, we review the taxonomic history of the species within this taxon, and discuss the morphological, genetic and ecological evidence for the recognition of Powellia Maskell, 1879, as a valid genus. Consequently, we establish the following New combinations: P. alseuosmiae (Tuthill, 1952), P. australis (Tuthill, 1952), P. compressa (Tuthill, 1952), P. crinita (Tuthill, 1952), P. dacrydii (Tuthill, 1952), P. dentiforceps (Dumbleton, 1967), P. discariae (Tuthill, 1952), P. flavida (Tuthill, 1952), P. gourlayi (Tuthill, 1952), P. hebicola (Tuthill, 1952), P. latiforceps (Tuthill, 1952), P. obscura (Tuthill, 1952), P. parvipennis (Tuthill, 1952), P. schefflericola (Tuthill, 1952), P. scobina (Tuthill, 1952), P. subvexa (Tuthill, 1952), all from Trioza. A further two species, T. adventicia Tuthill, 1952 and T. curta (Ferris & Klyver, 1932) are retained in Trioza.
期刊介绍:
The invertebrate diversity of New Zealand is of great interest worldwide because of its geographic isolation and geological history. The New Zealand Entomologist plays an important role in disseminating information on field-based, experimental, and theoretical research.
The New Zealand Entomologist publishes original research papers, review papers and short communications. We welcome submissions in all aspects of science regarding insects and arthropods in a New Zealand or Australasian setting. The journal’s subject matter encompasses taxonomy, phylogenetics, biogeography, biological control and pest management, conservation, ecology and natural history.
The journal is the official publication of the Entomological Society of New Zealand. Papers published or submitted elsewhere for publication will not be considered, but publication of an abstract or summary elsewhere (e.g. conference proceedings) does not preclude full publication in the New Zealand Entomologist. Accepted papers become copyright of the Entomological Society of New Zealand. The journal is published in English, but we also welcome publication of abstracts in Maori.
