ABSTRACT

The taxonomy of the East Asian endemic subgenus Nialoe (s. lat.) Tanaka, 1958 (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Pterostichus) is still insufficient at both the specific and subgeneric levels, and the discovery of new species and revision of the subgeneric classification are ongoing. This study describes Pterostichus (Nialoe) hekosanensis sp. nov. from central Honshu, Japan. The new species is similar to P. daihizanus Ishida, 1968; P. ohbayashii Ishida, 1968; and P. ryoheii Morita, 2012, but can be readily distinguished from them by distinct characters. In addition, the subgenus Nialoe in the last version of the Palaearctic Catalogue, which is widely accepted by experts, is reviewed from a phylogenetic perspective and a revised list reflecting the phylogenetic relationships is presented.

摘要

东亚特有亚属Nialoe (s. lat.) Tanaka, 1958 (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Pterostichus ) 的分类在特异和亚属水平上仍然不足，新种的发现和亚属分类的修订正在进行中. 这项研究描述了Pterostichus ( Nialoe ) hekosanensis sp。十一月 来自日本本州中部。新种与P. daihizanus Ishida, 1968相似；P. ohbayashii Ishida，1968；和P. ryoheii Morita, 2012，但可以很容易地通过不同的字符与它们区分开来。此外，亚属Nialoe 在被专家广泛接受的最新版本的古北界目录中，从系统发育的角度进行了审查，并提出了反映系统发育关系的修订列表。
