摘要
Pseudophilotes fatma (oberthr, 1890)是马格里布地区特有的一种古北极蝴蝶,其特征是分布高度受限,处于“濒危”保护状态。最近在阿尔及利亚东北部巴特纳省进行的实地观察记录了新发现的法特玛虫,标志着该虫在消失71年后重新被发现。我们更新了该物种的全球分布图,并强调了保护行动的紧迫性,以确保其持久性。一种lecotype被指定为Lycæna bavius var. fatma oberthr, 1890。
Rediscovery of the Endangered Pseudophilotes fatma (Oberthür, 1890) (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) in Algeria after 71 years, with an update on its distribution and designation of a lectotype.
Pseudophilotes fatma (Oberthür, 1890) is a Palearctic butterfly species endemic to the Maghreb region, characterised by a highly restricted distribution and "Endangered" conservation status. Recent field observations in Batna Province, northeastern Algeria, have documented new localities for P. fatma, marking its rediscovery after a 71-year absence. We updated the global distribution map for this species and highlight the urgent need for conservation actions to ensure its persistence. A lectotype is designated for Lycæna bavius var. fatma Oberthür, 1890.
期刊介绍:
Zootaxa is a peer-reviewed international journal for rapid publication of high quality papers on any aspect of systematic zoology, with a preference for large taxonomic works such as monographs and revisions. Zootaxa considers papers on all animal taxa, both living and fossil, and especially encourages descriptions of new taxa. All types of taxonomic papers are considered, including theories and methods of systematics and phylogeny, taxonomic monographs, revisions and reviews, catalogues/checklists, biographies and bibliographies, identification guides, analysis of characters, phylogenetic relationships and zoogeographical patterns of distribution, descriptions of taxa, and nomenclature. Open access publishing option is strongly encouraged for authors with research grants and other funds. For those without grants/funds, all accepted manuscripts will be published but access is secured for subscribers only.
