Savigniorrhipis topographicus new species is described from the Azores. The synapomorphies of Savigniorrhipis are discussed along with the affinities of the genus within the Savignia-group. Given the extremely restricted and increasingly disturbed habitat, S. topographicus new species should be classified as Critically Endangered and its single forest habitat at Topo (São Jorge Island) should increase its current protection level to a strict nature reserve.
新物种萨维尼奥里皮斯地形种是在亚速尔群岛发现并被描述的。文中讨论了萨维尼奥里皮斯的共衍征,以及该属在萨维尼亚类群中的亲缘关系。鉴于其栖息地极度受限且日益受到干扰,萨维尼奥里皮斯地形种应被列为极度濒危物种,其位于托波(圣若热岛)的单一森林栖息地应将当前的保护级别提升至严格自然保护区。
