A new species of Docosia Winnertz from Central Europe, with DNA barcoding based on four gene markers (Diptera, Mycetophilidae)

چکیده
A new species of Docosia Winnertz, Docosia dentata sp. n., is described and illustrated, based on a single male specimen collected in Muránska planina National Park in Central Slovakia. DNA sequences (COI, COII, CytB, and ITS2) are included and compared for 13 species of Docosia. There was found only little congruence between the molecular results and previous scarce data about interspecific relationships based on morphology. The COI and CytB gene markers showed the highest interspecific gene distances while ITS2 showed the lowest ones. An updated key to the 23 Central European species of Docosia is also presented.

Replacement for a preoccupied Docosia Winnertz (Diptera: Mycetophilidae) name.
In our recent paper on Palaearctic Docosia Winnertz, 1863, a new species was described under the name Docosia turkmenica Kurina & Ševčík, 2012. The material originated from the Kopet Dag Mountains (Big Bakhcha River) in southwest Turkmenistan and was named for its occurrence in the country (Kurina & Ševčík 2012). Unfortunately, the authors were not aware of a previous paper by Zaitzev (2011) de...

BACKGROUND Fungus gnats (Sciaroidea) are a globally species rich group of lower Diptera. In Europe, Fennoscandian peninsula in particular holds a notable diversity, ca. 1000 species, of which 10 % are still unnamed. Fungus gnats are predominantly terrestrial insects, but some species dwell in wetland habitats. NEW INFORMATION Eight new fungus gnat species, belonging to the families Keroplatid...
