摘要
德国小蠊(Linnaeus, 1767)是小蠊目小蠊科的一员,是一种重要的全球性卫生害虫。1903年,小蠊属(Blattella Caudell)及其近缘属(Episymploce Bey-Bienko, 1950年;Symploce Hebard, 1916年;Jacobsonina Hebard, 1929年)中的几个种表现出与德国小蠊相似的外部形态特征。通过形态学鉴定和分子分析相结合,鉴定出1个新种:Jacobsonina uncata Cai, Yao & Che, sp. 11 .并将asahinai Mizukubo, 1981降为德国小蠊的亚种。分子数据的应用,特别是细胞色素氧化酶c亚基I (COI),已被证明是一种简单有效的方法来区分德国小蠊与其形态相似的亲戚。
On the species status of Blattella germanica and Blattella asahinai (Blattodea, Blattellidae), and other morphologically similar species.
Blattella germanica (Linnaeus, 1767), a member of the Blattellidae family within the order Blattodea, is a significant global sanitary pest. Several species within the genus Blattella Caudell, 1903 and its closely related genera (Episymploce Bey-Bienko, 1950; Symploce Hebard, 1916; and Jacobsonina Hebard, 1929) exhibit external morphological traits similar to those of B. germanica. By integrating morphological identification and molecular analyses, one new species was identified: Jacobsonina uncata Cai, Yao & Che, sp. nov. Additionally, Blattella asahinai Mizukubo, 1981 was downgraded to a subspecies of B. germanica. The application of molecular data, specifically cytochrome oxidase c subunit I (COI), has proven to be a straightforward and effective method for distinguishing B. germanica from its morphologically similar relatives.
