Abstract

A new genus, Riberazantaena gen. nov., is erected to accommodate Protozantaena grebennikovi Perkins, 2009 and Riberazantaena latissima sp. nov. from the South Pare Mountains in Tanzania. Both species are apparently endemic to Eastern Arc mountain forests, adults living terrestrially in damp leaf litter. Protozantaena Perkins, 1997 is redefined in light of the description of the new genus, and a revised key to genera of Parhydraenini is provided.

摘要

建立了一个新属，Riberazantaena 属。nov.，以容纳坦桑尼亚 South Pare 山脉的 Protozantaena grebennikovi Perkins, 2009 和 Riberazantaena latissima sp. nov.。这两个物种显然是东非弧形山脉森林的特有种，成虫生活在潮湿的落叶层中。根据新属的描述，重新定义了 Protozantaena Perkins, 1997，并提供了 Parhydraenini 属的修订关键。
