We describe a new genus Alaskacladius gen. nov., based on the adult stages collected from Alaska, USA, and British Columbia, Canada. Molecular and morphological assessment of adult specimens supports the presence of a new genus. Alaskacladius gen. nov., is related to the genera Doithrix Sther & Sublette, 1983; Georthocladius Strenzke, 1941; Parachaetocladius Wlker, 1959; and Pseudorthocladius Goetghebuer, 1932. Based on the molecular analysis result and intergeneric K2P distance obtained from Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI) genes, Alaskacladius is closest and forms a sister group with Doithrix.
我们描述了一个新的属阿拉斯加蝇蝇属(Alaskacladius gen. nov.),基于在美国阿拉斯加和加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚采集的成虫阶段。对成虫标本的分子和形态评估支持一个新属的存在。阿拉斯加蝇蝇属(Alaskacladius gen. nov.)与 Doithrix Sther & Sublette, 1983、Georthocladius Strenzke, 1941、Parachaetocladius Wlker, 1959 和 Pseudorthocladius Goetghebuer, 1932 等属有关。基于分子分析结果和从细胞色素氧化酶 I(COI)基因获得的种间 K2P 距离,阿拉斯加蝇蝇属与 Doithrix 最接近,形成姐妹群。
