Abstract

This paper provides miscellaneous taxonomic updates for diurnal velvet ants in the USA. Six valid species of Dasymutilla Ashmead, 1899, one valid species of Ephuta Say, 1836 and six valid species of Pseudomethoca Ashmead, 1896 are regarded. Two new species are described: Pseudomethoca peremptrix sp. nov. and P. sonorae sp. nov. The female formerly associated with Dasymutilla zelaya (Blake, 1871) is recognized as a color variant of D. vestita (Lepeletier, 1845). Sixteen new synonymies are proposed: Dasymutilla chisos Mickel, 1928, syn. nov. under D. gloriosa (Saussure, 1868); D. cotulla Mickel, 1928, syn. nov., D. homole Mickel, 1928, syn. nov. and D. vandala Mickel, 1928, syn. nov. under D. vestita (Lepeletier, 1845); D. dorippa Mickel, 1928, syn. nov. under D. flammifera Mickel, 1928; D. ocydrome Mickel, 1928, syn. nov. under D. connectens (Cameron, 1895); Mutilla phaon Fox, 1899, syn. nov. under D. pseudopappus (Cockerell, 1895); M. zelaya Blake, 1871, syn. nov. under D. gorgon (Blake, 1871); Ephuta tentativa Schuster, 1951, syn. nov. under E. scrupea Say, 1836; P. dentifrontalis Bradley in Mickel, 1924, syn. nov. under P. athamas (Fox, 1899); P. albicoma Mickel, 1924, syn. nov., P. contumeliosa Mickel, 1935, syn. nov., P. manca Mickel, 1924, syn. nov. and P. oculissima Mickel, 1924, syn. nov. under P. contumax (Cresson, 1865); M. aeetis Fox, 1899, syn. nov. under P. sanbornii (Blake, 1871); and P. (Nomiaephagus) vanduzei Bradley, 1916, syn. nov. under P. wickhami (Cockerell & Casad, 1895).

摘要

本文提供了美国日行性毛角蚁的分类学更新资料。共涉及 6 种有效种的 Dasymutilla Ashmead, 1899，1 种有效种的 Ephuta Say, 1836 和 6 种有效种的 Pseudomethoca Ashmead, 1896。描述了 2 个新种：Pseudomethoca peremptrix sp. nov. 和 P. sonorae sp. nov. 以前与 Dasymutilla zelaya (Blake, 1871) 相关联的雌性被认为是 D. vestita (Lepeletier, 1845) 的颜色变体。提出了 16 个新的同物异名：Dasymutilla chisos Mickel, 1928，syn. nov. 归入 D. gloriosa (Saussure, 1868)；D. cotulla Mickel, 1928，syn. nov.，D. homole Mickel, 1928，syn. nov. 和 D. vandala Mickel, 1928，syn. nov. 归入 D. vestita (Lepeletier, 1845)；D. dorippa Mickel, 1928，syn. nov. 归入 D. flammifera Mickel, 1928；D. ocydrome Mickel, 1928，syn. nov. 归入 D. connectens (Cameron, 1895)；Mutilla phaon Fox, 1899，syn. nov. 归入 D. pseudopappus (Cockerell, 1895)；M. zelaya Blake, 1871，syn. nov. 归入 D. gorgon (Blake, 1871)；Ephuta tentativa Schuster, 1951，syn. nov. 归入 E. scrupea Say, 1836；P. dentifrontalis Bradley in Mickel, 1924，syn. nov. 归入 P. athamas (Fox, 1899)；P. albicoma Mickel, 1924，syn. nov.，P. contumeliosa Mickel, 1935，syn. nov.，P. manca Mickel, 1924，syn. nov. 和 P. oculissima Mickel, 1924，syn. nov. 归入 P. contumax (Cresson, 1865)；M. aeetis Fox, 1899，syn. nov. 归入 P. sanbornii (Blake, 1871)；和 P. (Nomiaephagus) vanduzei Bradley, 1916，syn. nov. 归入 P. wickhami (Cockerell & Casad, 1895)。
