Abstract

One new genus (Quatuordillo) and two new species (Quatuordillo caecus and Buddelundia eberhardi) are described from subterranean habitats in Western Australia. Both species show troglomorphic traits, such as body depigmentation, reduction or absence of eyes, and elongation of appendages. Buddelundia eberhardi is the only troglobiont in the genus, which up to date includes 26 species from Australia. Armadillo brevicauda Dollfus, 1898 from Flores Island, Indonesia, is transferred to Buddelundia. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:35F61AC8-F76D-49E8-A8D8-278B58C2FE31

西澳大利亚地下犰狳科新种(甲壳纲，等足纲，蛇足纲)

在西澳大利亚的地下生境中描述了一个新属(Quatuordillo)和两个新种(Quatuordillo caecus和Buddelundia eberhardi)。这两个物种都表现出troglomerorphic的特征，如身体色素沉着，眼睛减少或没有，附属物伸长。Buddelundia eberhardi是该属中唯一的穴居生物，迄今为止包括来自澳大利亚的26种。1898年印度尼西亚弗洛雷斯岛的犰狳(Armadillo brevicauda Dollfus)被转移到Buddelundia。http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:35F61AC8-F76D-49E8-A8D8-278B58C2FE31

期刊介绍： Tropical Zoology is an international zoological journal publishing original papers in the field of systematics, biogeography, phylogeny, ecology and conservation of all terrestrial and aquatic animal Phyla from tropical and subtropical areas. Only papers with new information, high quality and broad interest are considered. Single species description and checklists are not normally accepted. Review papers are welcome. The journal is owned by the Istituto di Ricerca sugli Ecosistemi Terrestri of the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Florence, Italy (CNR-IRET) who performs research into the structure and functioning of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, focusing in particular on anthropogenic pressure and global change. The knowledge amassed forms the scientific basis for identifying the most appropriate protective and corrective interventions, and provides support for the bodies entrusted with formulating policies for environmental protection and recovery.
