Abstract

The new genus Callivelia is proposed to hold three Neotropical species previously held within Paravelia: type-species Callivelia conata (Hungerford), Callivelia taipiensis (Cheesman) and Callivelia bipunctata (Rodrigues, Moreira, Nieser, Chen Melo). Paravelia virtutis (Drake Harris) 1935 is synonymized under Callivelia taipiensis (Cheesman) 1926. In addition, a new species, C. anomala, is described from the Amazon Basin of Brazil. Additional distributional records are provided for the three previously described species treated, including the first country record for C. bipunctata in Paraguay. A key to the species of Callivelia is provided, accompanied by color habitus photographs for all three species, and additional photographs of key generic characters.

摘要

现提出新属 Callivelia，以包含 Paravelia 属中三个先前的新热带物种：模式种 Callivelia conata (Hungerford)、Callivelia taipiensis (Cheesman) 和 Callivelia bipunctata (Rodrigues, Moreira, Nieser, Chen Melo)。Paravelia virtutis (Drake Harris) 1935 被归入 Callivelia taipiensis (Cheesman) 1926 之下。此外，还描述了一个来自巴西亚马逊流域的新物种，C. anomala。对所处理的三个先前描述的物种提供了更多的分布记录，包括 C. bipunctata 在巴拉圭的第一个国家记录。提供了 Callivelia 物种的关键特征，附有三个物种的彩色生活照，以及其他重要属特征的照片。
