In the present study we report the presence of Polygenis (Polygenis) roberti beebei (Fox, 1947) for the first time in Argentina (23 degrees 56'S, 64 degrees 28'W, Jujuy Province). A new host record (the rodent Oryzomys russatus) and morphological details are also presented. Although the Argentinean specimens fit descriptions and illustrations given previously, the only studied male differs from the specimens collected from other localities in the characteristics of its aedeagus. Collections of further material and morphological studies are needed in order to analyse the taxonomic status of the specimens from Argentina.
在本研究中,我们首次报告了在阿根廷(胡胡伊省,南纬23°56′,西经64°28′)发现了罗氏多基因属(Polygenis)的罗伯蒂贝氏多基因属(Polygenis (Polygenis) roberti beebei (Fox, 1947))。还介绍了一个新的宿主记录(啮齿动物稻鼠(Oryzomys russatus))和形态细节。尽管阿根廷的标本符合先前给出的描述和图示,但唯一研究过的雄性标本在其阳茎特征上与从其他地区采集的标本不同。需要收集更多材料并进行形态学研究,以便分析来自阿根廷的标本的分类地位。
