In this study, a comprehensive revision of <i>Zasphinctus</i> in the Afrotropical region is presented, through a combination of morphological examination under the light microscope and three-dimensional (3D) cyber-taxonomy based on microtomography (micro-CT). Micro-CT based 3D surface models of all species were used for virtual morphological visualisation and examination. The 3D models were virtually visualised, rotated, scaled, and dissected in order to obtain the best shape data for whole specimens or individual body parts. This approach offered a greatly improved character evaluation, allowing the development of an updated taxonomic species delimitation system for the genus.

Nevertheless, their diversity is underestimated and knowledge about the distribution of the approximately 300 formally described species is limited. Factors that contribute to this include their small size and frequent misidentification by non-specialists. Recent deep-sea explorations have resulted in the collection of numerous specimens through effective methods such as epibenthic sledges. However, this is a costly, labor-intensive, and destructive methodology. In contrast, Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures (ARMS) offer a novel, non-destructive approach, by providing a substrate for benthic organism colonization. This study is the first to describe Solenogastres collected using ARMS, demonstrating that they are an effective tool for biodiversity assessment and characterizing rare marine invertebrates. Following an integrative taxonomic approach, two new solenogaster species are described: <i>Dondersiatweedtae</i> Farris, Olson & Kocot, <b>sp. nov.</b> (Dondersiidae) and <i>Eleutheromeniabullescens</i> Cobo, <b>sp. nov.</b> (Pruvotinidae). The diagnosis of the family Dondersiidae is amended and the necessity of reassessing the validity of the current diagnostic characters for Pruvotinidae, and its classification is emphasized. The two newly described species exhibit distinct external characteristics; <i>D.tweedtae</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> has a striking pink color with a bright yellow dorsal keel and <i>E.bullescens</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> has a unique, discontinuous dorsal keel with nearly spherical protrusions. The presence of cnidocytes in the digestive systems of both species indicate that they feed on cnidarians. It is hypothesized that, like in some nudibranchs, their coloration and body features reflect defensive adaptations related to their diet. This study shows that while habitus alone is typically insufficient for accurate identification in solenogasters, it can sometimes simplify the process.

Their morphology varies and has adapted throughout their coevolutionary history with hosts. Bat flies are often associated with specific bat species and can establish distinct infracommunities. Interaction networks have been used to better understand these associations, revealing interaction modules between bats and their parasites. The Magdalena River basin is the largest in Colombia, encompassing a wide variety of climatic and ecological conditions, with up to 98 bat species reported. We conducted field trips to capture bats and bat flies in different locations along the basin and reviewed literature records and biological collections to gather additional data on interactions between bats and bat flies in this region. We found a high diversity of bats and bat flies in the Magdalena River basin, revealing a medium specialization and modularity in these interactions. We identified bat fly infracommunities and negative associations between certain bat fly species, suggesting competition for resources within hosts. The specialization is similar to that reported in degraded and fragmented habitats where the availability of shelters decreases, favoring the overcrowding of bats, forming multi-species colonies. In conclusion, our study provides important information on the interactions between bats and bat flies in the Magdalena River basin, expanding knowledge about the diversity and structure of these communities in inter-Andean landscapes.</p>","PeriodicalId":24051,"journal":{"name":"ZooKeys","volume":"1221 ","pages":"377-400"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11707520/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142956011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
