Review and Revision of the Century-Old Types of Cardiodactylus Crickets (Grylloidea, Eneopterinae, Lebinthini)
Review and revision of the century-old types of Cardiodactylus crickets (Grylloidea, Eneopterinae, Lebinthini) Tony ROBILLARD Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Institut de Systématique, Évolution, Biodiversité, ISYEB, UMR 7205, CNRS MNHN UPMC EPHE, case postale 50, 57 rue Cuvier, F-75231 Paris cedex 05 (France) [email protected] Robillard T. 2014. — Review and revision of the century-old types of Cardiodactylus crickets (Grylloidea, Eneopterinae, Lebinthini). Zoosystema 36 (1): 101-125. http://dx.doi.org/10.5252/ z2014n1a7 ABSTRACT In this study I review and revise the nine species of Cardiodactylus Saussure, 1878 crickets described before 1915, based on detailed analysis of the type specimens studied in several institutions, together with a critical review of the original descriptions. Seven species are thus confirmed or re-established as valid species (C. novaeguineae (Hann, 1842), C. canotus Saussure, 1878, C. gaimardi (Serville, 1838), C. haani Saussure, 1878, C. guttulus (Matsumura, 1913), C. pictus Saussure, 1878 and C. rufidulusSaussure, 1878), then assigned to a species group and redescribed by combining information from old type KEY WORDS series and newer material; two species are considered as nomen dubium (new Insecta, status or confirmation of previous hypotheses: C. praecipuus (Walker, 1869) Orthoptera, and C. philippinensis Bolívar, 1913); and two species described recently are Grylloidea, Eneopterinae, synonymised with older species (C. boharti Otte, 2007 under C. guttulus, Lebinthini. C. tathimani Otte, 2007 under C. rufidulus). ZOOSYSTEMA • 2014 • 36 (1) © Publications Scientifiques du Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Paris. www.zoosystema.com 101 Robillard T.

GOROCHOV Review of the subfamily Pteroplistinae (Orthoptera Gryllidae) Abstract - The Indo-Malayan subfamily Pteroplistinae is shortly characterized and partly re- vised. All known genera of Pteroplistinae are considered. Four new genera (Kerinciola gen. n., Tembelingiola gen. n., Changiola gen. n., Pangrangiola gen. n.) and eight new species (Ptero- plistes lagrecai sp. n., P. borneoensis sp. n., P. sumatranus sp. n., K. sonora sp. n., T. plana sp. n., Ch. subita sp. n., Pangrangiola bona sp. n., P. propria sp. n.) are described. Some oth- er new data and redescriptions are given. Riassunto - Revisione della sottofamiglia Pteroplistinae (Orthoptera Gryllidae). L’autore, dopo avere brevemente presentato e parzialmente revisionato i caratteri della sotto- famiglia Indo-Malese Pteroplistinae, prende in considerazione tutti i generi conosciuti. Quindi, descrive quattro generi nuovi (Kerinciola gen. n., Tembelingiola gen. n., Changiola gen. n., Pangrangiola gen. n.) ed otto specie nuove (Pteroplistes lagrecai sp. n., P. borneoensis sp. n., P. sumatranus sp. n., K. sonora sp. n., T. plana sp. n., Ch. subita sp. n., Pangrangiola bona sp. n., P. propria sp. n.). Inoltre, per altre specie fornisce un descrizione più dettagliata e nuo- vi dati distributivi. Key words: Pteroplistinae, taxonomy, new taxa, Indo-Malayan region. INTRODUCTION The subfamily Pteroplistinae was established by Chopard (1936, 1951) for two genera: the recent Pteroplistes Brunner de Wattenwyl, with 3 Indo-Malayan species [Gryl- lus platyxyphus Haan, 1842 (Java), Pteroplistus acinaceus Saussure, 1877 (Malacca), P. platycleis Bolivar, 1900 (India)], and the enigmatic fossil genus Trichogryllus Chopard (Eocene Baltic amber), which probably belongs to another subfamily (Gorochov, 1995). -

Six species are described, including three new species and a new combination. A key to species of the genus is given. Key words: Orthoptera, Gryllidae, Trigonidiinae, Svistella, taxonomy, new species Introduction The genus Svistella was proposed by Gorochov (1987) with Paratrigonidium bifasciatum Shiraki, 1913 as its type species, and at the same time, Anaxipha rufonotata Chopard, 1932 transferred to the genus Svistella. In this paper, six species have been recognized, of which three species—S. tympanalis sp. nov., S. anhuiensis sp. nov. and S. fallax sp. nov.—are described as new to science. Anaxipha dubia Liu et Yin (1993) was transferred to the genus Svistella. All type specimens are deposited in East China Normal University, Biology of History Museum, HSNU and Shanghai Entomological Museum, CAS (Shanghai, China).

In total, 2324 Orthoptera were collected by fogging, of which 87 .3o/o were nymphs. Imagines were sorted to 49 morphospecies, ofwhich 47 (96ok) were new to science.Almost 500/owere singlerons, and only three species, all belonging to the omnivorous subfamily Mogoplistinae (gents Ornebius), occurred with more than I 0 adult individuals. Orthoptera seemedto be randomly distributed in the canopy without showing any host-tree-specific adaptation. This is also indicated by the re-foggings, in which Orthoptera colonized the trees, according to the relative proportions ofsubfamilies and feeding guilds occurring in the canopy. No pioneer or climu speciescould be distinguished. ln the stem eclectors787 specimenswere caught, ofwhich 98.20lowere nymphs, mostly first and second instar, indicating migration into the canopy after egg development in the soil or lower forest strata. In contrast to the numerous nymphs of hemimetabolous taxa, lessmobile arthropods, mainly larvaeof holometabolous groups, were almost completely lacking in the canopy. This is probably due to the high predation pressureof the ants which influence communiry composirion. Arepted 9 July 2001.

Owing to this diversity, crickets prove an interesting model to test evolutionary hypotheses about New Caledonia and its fauna. -
Laying the Foundations of Evolutionary and Systematic Studies in Crickets (Insecta, Orthoptera): a Multilocus Phylogenetic Analysis

We propose the first phylogenetic hypothesis for the evolu- tion of crickets sensu lato, based on analysis of 205 species, representing 88% of the subfamilies and 71% tribes currently listed in the database Orthoptera Species File (OSF). We reconstructed parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenies using fragments of 18S, 28SA, 28SD, H3, 12S, 16S, and cytb (~3600 bp). Our results support the monophyly of the cricket clade, and its subdivision into two clades: mole crickets and ant-loving crickets on the one hand, and all the other crickets on the other (i.e. crickets sensu stricto). Crickets sensu stricto form seven monophyletic clades, which support part of the OSF fami- lies, “subfamily groups”, or subfamilies: the mole crickets (OSF Gryllotalpidae), the scaly crickets (OSF Mogoplistidae), and the true crickets (OSF Gryllidae) are recovered as monophyletic. -
