Although the monophyly of Iguanodontia is well supported, their internal relationships have sparked heated debate due to several phylogenetic paradigm shifts. Late Jurassic basally branching iguanodontians in particular are not well understood in terms of their systematic affinities and evolutionary relevance. Their fossil record in Europe is meager compared with North America, with only a few species currently recognized. Two taxa are currently known from the Upper Jurassic of England, the basally branching styracosternan <i>Cumnoria prestwichii</i> and the putative dryosaurid <i>Callovosaurus leedsi.</i> In the Upper Jurassic of Portugal, the styracosternan <i>Draconyx loureiroi </i>and the dryosaurid<i> Eousdryosaurus nanohallucis</i> are presently the only described basally branching iguanodontians. Here we report <b>a new species</b> of early diverging iguanodontian from the Upper Jurassic Lourinhã Formation of western-central Portugal. The new species is clearly distinguished from all other coeval taxa by an exclusive combination of characters that include a tibia with a cnemial crest that is directed craniolaterally and a fibular condyle that is angled at 90° with respect to the proximal epiphysis, a fibula with symmetrical proximal margins, and a reduced metatarsal I. The phylogenetic relationships of the Lourinhã iguanodontian were explored using maximum parsimony and Bayesian inference. The two analyses recover the Lourinhã iguanodontian as an indeterminate dryomorphan, with more precise affinities precluded due to the current available material. Body size is estimated between 3 and 4 meters for the holotype specimen, adding to the diversity of small ornithopods already recognized in the paleoichnological record of the Lourinhã Formation.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv6meiXDggnf591pRDKzNF9S5f5OmcyEs3Jmk39PBq7h5STcbaeB-qQfWkonPBZV0y7j8RnWSlf0dKeAhFV1f9cVMqHL9uNhGLWALRHT4vOf8__y7I-OnmFJU3WYDZJndXH5lNw0zMWvbdmR2nnd4TYZLJY-iuMrVcX0xcDi0qA2S4qawtO886T53edTK2/s4096/Hesperonyx_martinhotomasorum-novataxa_2024-Rotatori_Ferrari_Sequero__paleoArt_Victor_Carvalho.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2458" data-original-width="4096" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv6meiXDggnf591pRDKzNF9S5f5OmcyEs3Jmk39PBq7h5STcbaeB-qQfWkonPBZV0y7j8RnWSlf0dKeAhFV1f9cVMqHL9uNhGLWALRHT4vOf8__y7I-OnmFJU3WYDZJndXH5lNw0zMWvbdmR2nnd4TYZLJY-iuMrVcX0xcDi0qA2S4qawtO886T53edTK2/w400-h240/Hesperonyx_martinhotomasorum-novataxa_2024-Rotatori_Ferrari_Sequero__paleoArt_Victor_Carvalho.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Hesperonyx martinhotomasorum <br /></span></i></b><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="text-align: center;">reconstruction by Victor Carvalho</span></div></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Filippo Maria Rotatori, Lucrezia Ferrari, Cristina Sequero, Bruno Camilo, Octávio Mateus and Miguel Moreno-Azanza. 2024.

The botanical explorations in richness areas for <i>Dahlia </i>still provide taxonomic novelties. The aims of this communication are to describe the new species<i> D. gypsicola</i>, and compare it morphologically and ecologically with <i>D. calzadana</i>, providing a distribution map, illustrations, an identification key for <i>Dahlia </i>of the Cañada-Mixteca biocultural region in Oaxaca, Mexico, and a species accumulation analysis.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><br /></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b>Methods: </b>Our study was based on field exploration, herbarium material revision, and analysis of living collections. The conservation status was determined based on range size, and criteria and categories of the IUCN Red List. To measure the sampling effort, a predictive species richness analysis was calculated considering 41 taxa of <i>Dahlia </i>and 2297 herbarium records collected between 1791-2021.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><br /></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b>Key results:</b> <i>Dahlia gypsicola </i>is a member of <i>Dahlia </i>section <i>Dahlia</i>, morphologically related to<i> D. calzadana</i>. It differs by the herbaceous habit, semi-succulent leaves and stems, smaller petioles and capitulum, more capitula per synflorescence, and fewer disk florets per capitulum. Moreover, both species are allopatric and do not share ecological preferences and phenology. The category of Critically Endangered (CR B1a) is proposed for <i>D. gypsicola</i>, and Endangered (EN B1a) for<i> D. calzadana. </i>The species prediction richness shows that the number of known <i>Dahlia </i>species is almost complete: the inventory is approaching 95% and the predicted number of species is close to 43.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><br /></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b>Conclusions: </b>A complete knowledge of the diversity in <i>Dahlia </i>could enhance plant breeding programs with economic and cultural impacts, because the possibilities of generating new cultivars are many.

They are small and threadlike, slow moving, lacking pigmentation, and rarely encountered due to their obscure underground way of life. One family, the Siphonorhinidae, encompasses four genera and 12 species in a fragmentary distribution in California, southern Africa, Madagascar, the Malay Archipelago, and Indo-Burma. The family is represented in the Western Hemisphere by a single genus, <i>Illacme </i>Cook & Loomis, 1928 from California, with its closest known relative, <i>Nematozonium filum </i>Verhoeff, 1939, from southern Africa. <b>A new species</b> of this family is documented from soil microhabitats in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, <i><b>Illacme socal</b></i> Marek & Shear, <b>sp. nov. </b>Based on this discovery and the recent documentation of other endogean millipede species, we show that these grossly understudied subterranean fauna represent the next frontier of discovery. However, they are threatened by encroaching human settlement and habitat loss, and conservation of this species and other subterranean fauna is of high importance.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Key words: </b>Colobognatha, <i>Illacme plenipes</i>, interstitial, Myriapoda, <i>Siphonorhinus</i>, super-elongation</div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div><b>Class </b>Diplopoda de Blainville in Gervais, 1844</div><div><b>Subclass </b>Chilognatha Latreille, 1802/1803</div><div><b>Infraclass </b>Helminthomorpha Pocock, 1887</div><div><b>Subterclass </b>Colobognatha Brandt, 1834</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Order </b>Siphonophorida Hoffman, 1980</div><div><b>Family </b>Siphonorhinidae Cook, 1895</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Genus </b><i>Illacme </i>Cook & Loomis, 1928</div><div><br /></div><div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdO1x0WRyfsmV8dgHPnm5AalqrVVV1DR-Uc2_kOEUAKhwI9GYz1Yo4XMyq_2kvvob_ByeBXXIOTgAbL7nNuv5-pFilWF5KJ8QFPh9G92sdCmnI0Fa-T3QIVeiQU9JoHhD_HkcigMBPHpPV1sbIr-ex1c3wU3tP_wtGskuMIs5H-fEazjFOeuKq8EhVCw2s/s1972/%EF%BB%BF%20Illacme_socal-novataxa_2023-Marek_Shear.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1972" data-original-width="1962" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdO1x0WRyfsmV8dgHPnm5AalqrVVV1DR-Uc2_kOEUAKhwI9GYz1Yo4XMyq_2kvvob_ByeBXXIOTgAbL7nNuv5-pFilWF5KJ8QFPh9G92sdCmnI0Fa-T3QIVeiQU9JoHhD_HkcigMBPHpPV1sbIr-ex1c3wU3tP_wtGskuMIs5H-fEazjFOeuKq8EhVCw2s/w398-h400/%EF%BB%BF%20Illacme_socal-novataxa_2023-Marek_Shear.jpg" width="398" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Habitat of<b><i><span style="font-size: medium;"> Illacme socal</span></i> sp. nov. </b>Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park, Orange County, California<br /> A California live oak woodland habitat surrounded by chaparral shrubland B close up of oak woodland habitat<br />C type locality beneath oak canopy D an<b><i><span style="font-size: medium;"> I. socal</span></i></b> <b>sp. nov.</b> individual (center) encountered beneath the humus layer and embedded within the underlying soil matrix.</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiURyVgt3c3xVpHpkECad2sdPl9_tjZ22MFyCIZIQf1KPfAWafSJZ1uAtJcRKK0PAFbaiBc8x8wYTz3eB2sn_1nvw_ne3PZbLHlfhuz0H6z1RJFqQwXpnPQB5KHMX2yLmtUrwv69QXOZoxuMWoqwCmsIFfXDs3qfL4koRD16jSIbha3mmoPoPwS4b5Pi3L5/s850/%EF%BB%BF%20Illacme_socal-novataxa_2023-Marek_Shear.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="850" data-original-width="800" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiURyVgt3c3xVpHpkECad2sdPl9_tjZ22MFyCIZIQf1KPfAWafSJZ1uAtJcRKK0PAFbaiBc8x8wYTz3eB2sn_1nvw_ne3PZbLHlfhuz0H6z1RJFqQwXpnPQB5KHMX2yLmtUrwv69QXOZoxuMWoqwCmsIFfXDs3qfL4koRD16jSIbha3mmoPoPwS4b5Pi3L5/w376-h400/%EF%BB%BF%20Illacme_socal-novataxa_2023-Marek_Shear.jpg" width="376" /></a></div><br /><div><i><br /></i></div><div><b><i> Illacme socal </i></b>Marek & Shear,<b> sp. nov.</b></div><div> Vernacular name: Los Angeles Thread Millipede </div><div> </div><div><b>Diagnosis: </b>Adult males of<i> I. socal </i>sp. nov. are distinct from <i>I. plenipes </i>and <i>I. tobini </i>based on the combination of: Metazonites slightly wider than prozonites, with faintly enlarged paranota (Suppl. material 5: fig.

Combining these endemic taxa with data on geology and climate, we propose the ‘South East Africa Montane Archipelago’ (SEAMA) as a distinct ecoregion of global biological importance. The ecoregion encompasses 30 granitic inselbergs reaching > 1000 m above sea level, hosting the largest (Mt Mabu) and smallest (Mt Lico) mid-elevation rainforests in southern Africa, as well as biologically unique montane grasslands. Endemic taxa include 127 plants, 45 vertebrates (amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals) and 45 invertebrate species (butterflies, freshwater crabs), and two endemic genera of plants and reptiles. Existing dated phylogenies of endemic animal lineages suggests this endemism arose from divergence events coinciding with repeated isolation of these mountains from the pan-African forests, together with the mountains’ great age and relative climatic stability. Since 2000, the SEAMA has lost 18% of its primary humid forest cover (up to 43% in some sites)—one of the highest deforestation rates in Africa. Urgently rectifying this situation, while addressing the resource needs of local communities, is a global priority for biodiversity conservation.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4SVO6qBhlFbsaisv_k9pwN8sdetQb5f6ZuT2IuTP3fFTZrer49qXLWU2MKx1IRjHQ4-KlEZoKcbaWKv4yI6-HjzAvAqaUvv6-5IoSQhQJyKE8gRI7NWdlEbPDEg3IYk52-rOuSKC1ezNV2AkjcjHjxIud_PcKfKyEUJFJPJzVGOPd_0gZnHW8UD_eYIBX/s2006/SEAMA_Africa_Montane_Archipelago.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1966" data-original-width="2006" height="393" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4SVO6qBhlFbsaisv_k9pwN8sdetQb5f6ZuT2IuTP3fFTZrer49qXLWU2MKx1IRjHQ4-KlEZoKcbaWKv4yI6-HjzAvAqaUvv6-5IoSQhQJyKE8gRI7NWdlEbPDEg3IYk52-rOuSKC1ezNV2AkjcjHjxIud_PcKfKyEUJFJPJzVGOPd_0gZnHW8UD_eYIBX/w400-h393/SEAMA_Africa_Montane_Archipelago.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Location and extent of the<span style="font-size: medium;"> South East Africa Montane Archipelago (SEAMA)</span> showing core sites in red, and an outline boundary of the convex hull of the ecoregion (created using QGIS version 3.28.12 LTR https://qgis.org/en/site/).</td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div style="text-align: center;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7rFcMX2IjZJ7hTYupb4A_q5htrpBSKg6VOu6wcqd5mKOIYPpmV85NuydROd061QEHN1wGNcaXC-jMOV-v8WSKuESO-wAFm4ZR7MM-0ztarZvbt3Zzlest7OjCmIC7kYxopbi7kdCjmdThpgQ6Fmvfxo-lNfiugPEwLqLs_UAMJw-HaLrPzeeGRBPO-HWK/s2349/SEAMA_Africa_Montane_Archipelago.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2349" data-original-width="1770" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7rFcMX2IjZJ7hTYupb4A_q5htrpBSKg6VOu6wcqd5mKOIYPpmV85NuydROd061QEHN1wGNcaXC-jMOV-v8WSKuESO-wAFm4ZR7MM-0ztarZvbt3Zzlest7OjCmIC7kYxopbi7kdCjmdThpgQ6Fmvfxo-lNfiugPEwLqLs_UAMJw-HaLrPzeeGRBPO-HWK/w301-h400/SEAMA_Africa_Montane_Archipelago.jpg" width="301" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Examples of SEAMA endemics.

Syzygium crystalliferum is similar to S. purpuriflorum by having sessile leaves, cordate base, terminal inflorescence, large flowers and free perianth lobes. However, it is unique in pustules in dried leaves and inflorescence, and having chartaceous-coriaceous leaf texture, coarser secondary leaf venation, individual flowers borne on a distinct pedicel, shorter hypanthium, smaller calyx lobes, and red fruit turning deep purple when ripe. Preliminary assessment of conservation status following IUCN guidelines assign <i>S. crystalliferum </i>as Critically Endangered (CR). This discovery makes the first addition to Philippine <i>Syzygium </i>in over 70 years since Elmer D. Merrill's last taxonomic work on the genus.

Here we describe an unusual new nereidid species found at methane seeps off the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. Specimens of<i> </i><b><i>Pectinereis strickrotti </i>gen. nov., sp. nov.</b> had been observed dating back to 2009 swimming just above the seafloor at ~1,000 m depth but were not successfully captured until 2018. Male epitokes were collected as well as a fragment of an infaunal female found in a pushcore sample. The specimens were all confirmed as the same species based on mitochondrial COI. Phylogenetic analyses, including one based on available whole mitochondrial genomes for nereidids, revealed no close relative, allowing for the placement of the new species in its own genus within the subfamily Nereidinae. This was supported by the unusual non-reproductive and epitokous morphology, including parapodial cirrostyles as pectinate gills, hooked aciculae, elfin-shoe-shaped ventral cirrophores, and elongate, fusiform dorsal ligules emerging sub-medially to enlarged cirrophores. Additionally, the gill-bearing subfamily Dendronereidinae, generally regarded as a junior synonym of Gymnonereidinae, is reviewed and it is here reinstated and as a monogeneric taxon.</div><div><br /></div><div><div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzKZzBDgLNceHG0NS9GwbW7blj_4C32sq83pih774HUtPZC0EHTjF6R96JLNDU08hr-dSn9Ezie2fvzTg0rZADp_sJwb4wuYV8z1zGfG42HAluzGAoXyCED1ucNtM3uEZL4FNxGb4aNmOcHdTzjC3gdJ_c7HYjeEler1PoyPa3rgBqZaLGWE8Ln66SqSVE/s1058/Pectinereis_strickrotti-novataxa_2024-Villalobos-Guerrero_Huc_Tilic_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1058" data-original-width="894" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzKZzBDgLNceHG0NS9GwbW7blj_4C32sq83pih774HUtPZC0EHTjF6R96JLNDU08hr-dSn9Ezie2fvzTg0rZADp_sJwb4wuYV8z1zGfG42HAluzGAoXyCED1ucNtM3uEZL4FNxGb4aNmOcHdTzjC3gdJ_c7HYjeEler1PoyPa3rgBqZaLGWE8Ln66SqSVE/w338-h400/Pectinereis_strickrotti-novataxa_2024-Villalobos-Guerrero_Huc_Tilic_.jpg" width="338" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span style="font-size: medium;"> Pectinereis strickrotti </span></i>gen. nov., sp. nov.</b> male anatomy.<br />A, B, D-F.

However, the aquatic macroinvertebrate diversity in this specialized habitat remains poorly explored. Here, we study obligatorily bromeliadicolous species of the diving beetle genus <i>Copelatus </i>Erichson, 1832. We review the known species<i> Copelatus bromeliarum </i>Scott, 1912 (Trinidad and Venezuela) and <i>Copelatus bimaculatus</i> Resende & Vanin, 1991 (Brazil). We describe <b>three new species:<i> Copelatus espinhasso </i>sp. nov. </b>(Brazil),<i> </i><b><i>Copelatus florae</i> sp. nov.</b> (Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Panama) including its larva, and<i> </i><b><i>Copelatus panguana </i>sp. nov. </b>(Peru). Based on their male genital morphology, these species form a distinct clade within the genus. Other shared characters such as compact drop-shaped habitus, shortened appendages, and reduction of natatory setae on legs are interpreted as adaptations for what we call the ‘hygrofloric’ lifestyle. We document the thin water layer between leaf axils as the preferred habitat of both <i>Copelatus </i>adults and larvae, and not necessarily the central tank.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Neotropical forest canopy, tank bromeliads, specialized Coleoptera, diving beetles, new species</div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2p6ZI8W5dKW6UWQeRX7XQtO1PaP5r3te7_obFGFEw5kTUEBwoIYQRxBlCerq-0lk4XzVpC8TQaRqI4NBeDvRPQ8Vokr6U8rClpx9Z3noZ2hlq8gRMnjqnuufYVGxwMBrTq-OweRrxUwVcOpShgaW6DdnDUP9i66MtbAkfLPHAuiRxG1ZAJ3tgMQInPOKc/s1286/Copelatus_florae-novataxa_2024-Hajek_Alarie_Benetti_.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1286" data-original-width="896" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2p6ZI8W5dKW6UWQeRX7XQtO1PaP5r3te7_obFGFEw5kTUEBwoIYQRxBlCerq-0lk4XzVpC8TQaRqI4NBeDvRPQ8Vokr6U8rClpx9Z3noZ2hlq8gRMnjqnuufYVGxwMBrTq-OweRrxUwVcOpShgaW6DdnDUP9i66MtbAkfLPHAuiRxG1ZAJ3tgMQInPOKc/w279-h400/Copelatus_florae-novataxa_2024-Hajek_Alarie_Benetti_.jpg" width="279" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Habitat of <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Copelatus florae </span></i></b>in Alto de Piedra, Panama.<br />A, general view of the pasture with solitary trees.

Of raft spiders, genus <i>Dolomedes </i>Latreille, 1804, literature only reports two species on Madagascar. Our single expedition to humid forests of eastern and northern Madagascar, however, yielded a series of <i>Dolomedes </i>exemplars representing both sexes of five morphospecies. To avoid only using morphological diagnostics, we devised and tested an integrative taxonomic model for <i>Dolomedes </i>based on the unified species concept. The model first determines morphospecies within a morphometrics framework, then tests their validity via species delimitation using COI. It then incorporates habitat preferences, geological barriers, and dispersal related traits to form hypotheses about gene flow limitations. Our results reveal<b> four new </b><i>Dolomedes </i><b>species </b>that we describe from both sexes as<b> <i>Dolomedes gregoric </i>sp. nov., <i>D. bedjanic </i>sp. nov.,<i> D. hydatostella </i>sp. nov., </b>and <b><i>D. rotundus</i> sp. nov. </b>The range of D. kalanoro Silva & Griswold, 2013, now also known from both sexes, is expanded to eastern Madagascar. By increasing the known raft spider diversity from one valid species to five, our results merely scratch the surface of the true <i>Dolomedes </i>species diversity on Madagascar. Our integrative taxonomic model provides the framework for future revisions of raft spiders anywhere.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"> </div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvN5VwLhjQpYENpMbYmlUXan_r39bf9HbOCO0rcdu6VJ0FhTajAoTqlp2_cFoh9WIqTWAU5rVaH63Ne5mVSkjW5bF2XvWFUUixKsw9ccBdu8JokNS8Hll6yVLUqdidKaLewNBqEgx1boX5vhEciwCz1JneVNfkq-ad1moR30C5gag1fD_7rB6Rc7-xTTqB/s1222/Dolomedes_gregoric_D_bedjanic_D_hydatostella_D_rotundus-novataxa_2024-Yu_Kuntner.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="740" data-original-width="1222" height="243" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvN5VwLhjQpYENpMbYmlUXan_r39bf9HbOCO0rcdu6VJ0FhTajAoTqlp2_cFoh9WIqTWAU5rVaH63Ne5mVSkjW5bF2XvWFUUixKsw9ccBdu8JokNS8Hll6yVLUqdidKaLewNBqEgx1boX5vhEciwCz1JneVNfkq-ad1moR30C5gag1fD_7rB6Rc7-xTTqB/w400-h243/Dolomedes_gregoric_D_bedjanic_D_hydatostella_D_rotundus-novataxa_2024-Yu_Kuntner.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Dolomedes species collected from humid forests in the east and the north of Madagascar, showing the habitus coloration and variation.<br /> (A and B) Dark morph<i><span style="font-size: medium;"> D. kalanoro</span></i> Silva & Griswold, 2013: (A) A female (KPARA00184) on a rock in a river; (B) a male (KPARA00185) at a river bank.
