Abstract

Paraindopamphantus gen. nov., containing one species, I. bruneiensis sp. nov., is reported from Brunei, as the first member of the subfamily Pamphantinae from South East Asia and the second from the Oriental Region. The strikingly myrmecomorphic P. bruneiensis, collected only from Bukit Sulang, nr Lamunin in Brunei in the canopy of Shorea johorensis Foxw. (Dipterocarpaceae) tree by insecticide fogging is described and illustrated. The genus is placed in tribe Indopamphantini, that at present contains only other genus Indopamphantus Malipatil recorded from the Western Ghats of India. The significance of the habitus and myrmecomorphy of this species, in relation to Indopamphantus makutaensis Malipatil, is discussed. A key to the two genera of Indopamphantini is provided.

摘要

新属拟蚁虻属（Paraindopamphantus）包含一个物种——文莱拟蚁虻（I. bruneiensis sp. nov.），该物种来自文莱，是东南亚拟蚁虻亚科的首个成员，也是东洋区的第二个成员。文中描述并展示了形态极为拟蚁的文莱拟蚁虻，它仅在文莱拉穆宁附近的苏朗山，通过杀虫剂喷雾法，从羯布罗香（Shorea johorensis Foxw.，龙脑香科）树冠层采集到。该属被置于印度蚁虻族（Indopamphantini），目前该族仅包含另一个属——印度蚁虻属（Indopamphantus Malipatil），其记录于印度西高止山脉。文中还讨论了该物种的体型和拟蚁形态与马氏印度蚁虻（Indopamphantus makutaensis Malipatil）相关的重要性。此外，还提供了印度蚁虻族两个属的检索表。
