Abstract

Four species of Onychiurinae are reported from the Nilgiris, Western Ghats, southern India, including two new species, Thalassaphorura udagaiensis sp. nov. and Protaphorura sholai sp. nov., and two new records for India: Protaphorura fimata (Gisin, 1952) and Orthonychiurus folsomi (Schffer, 1900). Thalassaphorura udagaiensis sp. nov. can be separated easily from the similar species T. encarpata by the presence of 10/011/221110 dorsal S-chaetae and shorter anal spines. Protaphorura sholai sp. nov. is the most similar to the species P. microtica, P. subarctica and P. levantina as having the same number of ventral pseudocelli and parapseudocelli on abdomen; it can be easily distinguished by the position of head chaeta p2 in relation to p1 and p3, shorter M and Sp chaetae on Abd V and longer anal spines. We also sequenced the mitochondrial barcode region of cytochrome oxidase I (658 base pairs) to confirm the species status.

摘要

本文报道了来自印度南部西高止山脉尼勒尔吉里的 4 种 Onychiurinae，包括 2 个新种，即 Udagaiensis 新种和 Sholai 新种，以及印度的 2 个新记录种：Fimata（Gisin，1952）和 Folsomi（Schffer，1900）。Thalassaphorura udagaiensis sp. nov. 与相似种 T. encarpata 可以通过存在 10/011/221110 个背 S-刚毛和更短的肛刺来轻松区分。Protaphorura sholai sp. nov. 与 P. microtica、P. subarctica 和 P. levantina 最为相似，因为它们在腹部具有相同数量的腹假刚毛和副假刚毛；它可以通过头部刚毛 p2 相对于 p1 和 p3 的位置、Abd V 上 M 和 Sp 刚毛更短以及肛刺更长来轻松区分。我们还对细胞色素氧化酶 I 的线粒体条码区（658 个碱基对）进行了测序，以确认物种地位。
