Abstract

Four new species of trumpet leaf-miner moths (Tischeriidae) are described from the Neotropics: Coptotriche serjaniphaga Remeikis Stonis, sp. nov., feeding on Serjania Mill. (Sapindaceae), Astrotischeria mystica Dikus Stonis, sp. nov., feeding on Verbesina L. (Asteraceae), A. yungasi Dikus Stonis, sp. nov., feeding on Oyedaea DC. (Asteraceae), and A. parapallens Dikus Stonis, sp. nov., feeding on Baccharis L. (Asteraceae). Records on Sapindaceae-feeding Tischeriidae are very rare and Serjania is a novel host-plant genus for Tischeriidae. It is hypothesized that Serjania, a diverse genus in the tropical and subtropical Americas, may be a host for many undiscovered species of specialized stenophagous Tischeriidae. The new species are illustrated with photographs of the adults, male and, if available, female genitalia, and the leaf mines. We briefly discuss the importance of new species descriptions as a part of biodiversity assessment.

摘要

从新热带界描述了四种新的喇叭叶潜蛾（Tischeriidae）：以Serjania Mill.（无患子科）为食的Coptotriche serjaniphaga Remeikis Stonis，新种；以Verbesina L.（菊科）为食的Astrotischeria mystica Dikus Stonis，新种；以Oyedaea DC.（菊科）为食的A. yungasi Dikus Stonis，新种；以及以Baccharis L.（菊科）为食的A. parapallens Dikus Stonis，新种。关于以无患子科为食的潜蛾科记录非常罕见，Serjania是潜蛾科的一个新寄主植物属。据推测，Serjania在热带和亚热带美洲是一个多样化的属，可能是许多未被发现的专食性窄食性潜蛾科物种的寄主。新物种通过成虫、雄性（如有）和雌性生殖器以及叶潜的照片进行了展示。我们简要讨论了新物种描述作为生物多样性评估一部分的重要性。
