| Summary: | Aprionus borri sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: F17CA9EB-9D1F-47A1-9861-FC7054FAA837 Fig. 19 Diagnosis Among Aprionus with toothed gonostyli, Aprionus borri sp. nov. is the only species whose tegminal fingers are reduced to a single pair that forms the lateral and apical margins of the tegmen (↓, Fig. 19A). Etymology Borr, husband of Bestla, is Odin’s father. Material examined Holotype SWEDEN: ♂, Öland, Mörbylånga, Gamla Skogsby, 56.61° N, 16.51° E, mixed broadleaf forest, Malaise trap, M. and C. Jaschhof leg., 27 Jun.–30 Jul. 2014 (NHRS, no. CEC159). Paratypes SWEDEN (4 paratypes in NHRS, 5 in DEI): 1 ♂, same data as the holotype (no. CEC 160); 1 ♂, same data, but 9 Jun.–14 Jul. 2015 (no. CEC 308); 1 ♂, same data, but 15 Jul.–17 Aug. 2015 (no. CEC 167); 1 ♂, Öland, Mörbylånga, Stora Dalby forest NR, 56.47° N, 16.45° E, mixed broadleaf forest with much dead ash, MT, MCJ leg., 9 Jul.–8 Aug. 2015 (no. CEC 163); 2 ♂♂, Öland, Mörbylånga, Västerstad elmforest NR, 56.42° N, 16.42° E, mature elm forest, MT, MCJ leg. with the SMTP (trap 3002, collecting event 3055), 10 Jul.–5 Aug. 2014 (nos CEC 161– CEC 162); 1 ♂, Öland, Borgholm, Lindreservat NR, 57.31° N, 17.04° E, mixed deciduous forest, MT, MCJ leg., 11 Jun.–21 Jul. 2015 (no. CEC 307); 1 ♂, Öland Borgholm, Horns kungsgård NR, 57.20° N, 16.93° E, mixed forest of birch, alder and willow trees at lakeside, MT, MCJ leg., 21 Jul.–22 Aug. 2015 (no. CEC 168); 1 ♂, Öland, Borgholm, Skepparsäng NR, 57.31° N, 17.04° E, mixed coniferous/ broadleaf forest, MT, MCJ leg., 11 Jun.–21 Jul. 2015 (no. CEC 166). Differential diagnosis At a cursory glance, the tegmen of Aprionus borri sp. nov. seems to lack finger-like processes, especially in those slide-mounts where the finger apices intersect and then appear like they would form a closed, rounded margin apically. Aprionus with apically entire, fingerless tegmina (and toothed gonostyli) are A. ferulae Mamaev, 1998, a little-known species from Turkmenistan; A. reduncus Jaschhof, 2009, a species rarely collected in Fennoscandia; and ... |
