Abstract

Species of the genus Helopelius Reitter, 1922 (type species: Stenomax aeneipennis Allard, 1876) were known from Rhodes and North Africa. We found that two species described from Rhodes belong to the genus Stenohelops Reitter, 1922, and Helopelius can be interpreted as a subgenus within latter, guided by the article 23.2 of ICZN. The following synonyms are proposed: Helopelius, stat. n. (from genus to subgenus) = Stenomaleis Español, 1957, syn. n.; Stenohelops Reitter, 1922 = Gunarellus Reitter, 1922, syn. n.; Stenohelops (Helopelius) aeneipennis (Allard, 1876) = Helopelius disgregus Reitter, 1922, syn. n., = Gunarus gayirbegi Nabozhenko Keskin, 2009, syn. n. As a result, the following species are transferred from the former genus Helopelius to the genus Stenohelops: Stenohelops (Helopelius) nodifer (Kraatz, 1880), comb. n.; Stenohelops (Helopelius) otini (Antoine, 1949), comb. n.; Stenohelops (Helopelius) subsinuatus (Antoine, 1951), comb. n.; Stenohelops (Helopelius) verrucosus (Vauloger de Beaupré, 1900), comb. n.; Stenohelops (Helopelius) zaianus (Antoine, 1949), comb. n. Thus, the subgenus Helopelius contains 11 species from three isolated geographical exclaves: Western Mediterranean, Eastern Mediterranean and China. Lectotypes of Stenomax aeneipennis Allard, 1876, Helops gratus J. Frivaldszky, 1894 and Cylindrinotus (Helopelius) disgregus Reitter, 1922 are designated. Data on fossil species of the genus and the allied extinct taxa, as well as on bionomics of extant species of the subgenus Helopelius are presented. The check-list for extant and extinct species of Stenohelops is given.

摘要

已知属 Helopelius Reitter, 1922（模式种：stenomax aeneipennis Allard, 1876）分布于罗得岛和北非。我们发现，从罗得岛描述的两个物种属于属 Stenhelops Reitter, 1922，根据 ICZN 第 23.2 条，Helopelius 可被解释为后者的一个亚属。以下为同义词建议：Helopelius，stat. n.（从属到亚属）=stenomaleis Español, 1957，syn. n.；stenohelops Reitter, 1922=Gunarellus Reitter, 1922，syn. n.；stenohelops（Helopelius）aeneipennis（Allard, 1876）=Helopelius disgregus Reitter, 1922，syn. n.，=Gunarus gayirbegi Nabozhenko Keskin, 2009，syn. n.。因此，以下物种从以前的属 Helopelius 转移到属 stenhelops：stenohelops（Helopelius）nodifer（Kraatz, 1880），组合名；stenohelops（Helopelius）otini（Antoine, 1949），组合名；stenohelops（Helopelius）subsinuatus（Antoine, 1951），组合名；stenohelops（Helopelius）verrucosus（Vauloger de Beaupré, 1900），组合名；stenohelops（Helopelius）zaianus（Antoine, 1949），组合名。因此，亚属 Helopelius 包含来自三个孤立地理飞地的 11 个物种：西地中海、东地中海和中国。指定 stenomax aeneipennis Allard, 1876、Helops gratus J. Frivaldszky, 1894 和 Cylindrinotus（Helopelius）disgregus Reitter, 1922 的模式标本。介绍了属的化石种和相关灭绝类群以及现存亚属 Helopelius 种的生态学数据。给出了 stenhelops 现存和灭绝种的清单。
