Systematics, zoogeography and bionomics of high Andean pedaliodines, Part 3: Revisional notes on the generic status and a new subspecies of Pedaliodes puma (THIEME) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae)
نویسنده
چکیده
The generic status of Pedaliodes puma Thieme (Nymphalidae, Satyrinae), recently transferred to Panyapedaliodes FORSTER, is discussed and reinstated. The splitting of Pedaliodes by FORSTER (1964) into several smaller genera based solely on adult morphology, the male genitalia and wing underside colour pattern in particular, is considered as not sufficiently justified. A new subspecies, P. puma ernsti, is described from the valley of Kosñipata (Cuzco, Peru). Geographic and altitudinal distribution patterns of P. puma are discussed.

متن کاملNOTES ON THE SYSTEMATICS OF THE GENUS PRAEPRONOPHILA FORSTER WITH THE DESCRIPTION OF TWO NEW SUBSPECIES OF P. PERPERNA (HEWITSON) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae)
The taxonomy of the genus Praepronophila Forster is briefly revised. The genus includes three species: P. emma, P. petronius and P. perperna. The relationships between P. petronius and P. perperna are evaluated. It is demonstrated that they are allopatric, not sympatric or parapatric along an altitudinal gradient as previously suggested. The two taxa are closely related morphologically, and the...
