Close relationship between the genera Sinhomidia and Homidia (Collembola, Entomobryidae) revealed by adult and first instar characters, with description of a new Sinhomidia species.

ABSTRACT: A third species of the genus Sinhomidia is described from South China: S. uniseta sp. nov. This new species can be distinguished from the two other species of the genus by the following characters: colour pattern, single labial chaeta M, chaetotaxy on terga and ventral tube, unguis with three inner teeth, and 15 clypeal ciliated chaetae. Also, the chaetotaxy of the first instar of Sinhomidia is described for the first time in the present paper, and confirms the close relationship between Sinhomidia and Homidia. A key to species of Sinhomidia is provided.

New species of Homidia (Collembola, Entomobryidae) from eastern China with description of the first instar larvae.

Project description:Morphology of the first instar larvae of Collembola has considerably taxonomical and phylogenetic significance. We describe the first instar larvae for the first time in Homidia. External morphology of first instar larvae and adults of Homidia jordanai sp. n. is described based on observations under light and scanning electron microscopes. Most organs of adults bear considerably more setae than the first instar larvae; in addition, first instar larval Homidia lack labial seta R, seta on tenaculum, mucronal spine, and dental spines. The new species is characterized by weakly pigmented body, long antennae subequal to body in length, 1+1 inner macrochaetae on Abd. III, few inner macrochaetae on posterior Abd. IV, and spiny and short seta pi on dental base. Differences between new species and other two similar ones, taxonomical significance of the first instar larvae and the position of Homidia are also discussed.

First and second instar larvae and adults of a new Homidia species (Collembola, Entomobryidae) recorded from Xizang Autonomous Region with three new records.

Project description:Three new recorded species of genus Homidia were collected from Xizang Autonomous Region, China, in the present paper. Among them, a new species, Homidiabreviseta Pan, sp. nov., is included in the present paper. This new species can be identified by having a single uninterrupted dark band on central thoracic segment III; 14 macrochaetae on abdominal segment I and seven on the posterior central abdominal segment IV (half segment); and very short bothriotricha on abdominal segments II-IV. It can be easily discriminated from similar species of Homidia by its colour pattern, chaetotaxy of the labium, and abdominal segments I and IV. The chaetotaxy of the first and second instar larvae of this new species and a key to four species of genus Homidia from Xizang are also provided.

Coecobryasirindhornae sp. n., the most highly troglomorphic Collembola in Southeast Asia (Collembola, Entomobryidae).

Project description:The most highly troglomorphic Collembola of Southeast Asia, Coecobryasirindhornae sp. n., is described from a cave in Satun province, Thai Peninsula. It is characterised by its large size, extremely elongated antennae, relatively long legs and furca, reduced macrochaetotaxy, very long and slender claw, pointed tenent hair, four sublobal hairs on outer maxillary lobe, and the absence of eyes and pigmentation. A checklist of Thai Coecobrya species and a key to the troglomorphic species of Thailand are provided. Troglomorphy and conservation of cave habitats in the area are discussed.

Investigation on the true identity of Entomobryanigriventris Stach, 1929 (Collembola, Entomobryidae) with the description of a new species.

Project description:The present paper gives a detailed and illustrated redescription of Entomobryanigriventris Stach, 1929, and the description of a new species collected from open sand steppe habitat in Hungary. Based on the colour pattern, E.arenaria Winkler, Flórián & Dányi, sp. nov. is close to E.violaceolineata Stach, 1963 but differs from it by the morphology of the labral papillae and the dorsal macrochaetotaxy of the head, Th II, and Abd II-IV. The new species is also characterised by dark ventral body colouration in adult specimens. In this regard, an overview of European Entomobrya species in which the dark ventral side may occur is also provided.

Two new species of Sinella from Guangdong Province, China (Collembola: Entomobryidae).

Project description:Two new blind species of Sinella are described from Guangdong Province, China. Sinella colubra sp. n. possesses minute smooth postlabial chaetae, long mucronal spine, and 4+4(5) lateral mac on Abd. IV, and can be distinguished from two closely related species by the postlabial chaetae and the dorsal macrochaetotaxy. Sinella zhangi sp. n. is also described and can be diagnosed by having minute labial chaeta r and postlabial chaetae X and X4, 5+5 mac on Abd. I, 4+4 central mac on Abd. II, and 4+4 central and 5+5 lateral mac on Abd. IV.

Two new species of Entomobryidae (Collembola) of Taibai Mountain from China.

Project description:Taibai Mountain is the highest peak of Qinling Mountain Ridge, a climate and geographical demarcation of the southern and northern China. Collembolan species of family Entomobryidae are reported from this region for the first time in this paper. Two new species, Homidia taibaiensis sp. n. and Sinella triseta sp. n. of Entomobryinae are described. Illustrations and differences with similar species are provided.

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Homidia socia (Collembola: Entomobryidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of Homidia socia was assembled from the Illumina sequencing data. The circularized genome spans 14,793?bp with a high A?+?T content of 75.1% and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes. The most common start and stop codon for 13 PCGs are ATT and TAA, respectively. A phylogeny of 16 collembolan species clustered this species within Entomobryidae.

New blind species and new records of Sinella from Nanjing, China (Collembola, Entomobryidae).

Project description:Two new blind species of Sinella are described from Nanjing, China. Sinella quinseta sp. n. from Purple Mountain possesses unique 5+5 central macrochaetae on Abd. II, and can be distinguished from other species of the genus by the postlabial chaetae and the dorsal chaetotaxy. Sinella qixiaensis sp. n. from Qixia Mountain is characterized by the paddle-like S-chaetae of Ant. III organ and the smooth straight chaetae on the manubrium and base of dens; it differs from two closely related species by the smooth manubrial chaetae, the labial chaetae, the Ant. III organ, and the macrochaetae on Abd. II. Sinella fuyanensis Chen & Christiansen and Sinella quinocula Chen & Christiansen were also newly recorded from Nanjing.

The first chromosome-level genome assembly of Entomobrya proxima Folsom, 1924 (Collembola: Entomobryidae).

Project description:The Entomobryoidea, the largest superfamily of Collembola, encompasses over 2,000 species in the world. However, the lack of high-quality genomes hinders our understanding of the evolution and ecology of this group. This study presents a chromosome-level genome of Entomobrya proxima by combining PacBio long reads, Illumina short reads, and Hi-C data. The genome has a size of 362.37 Mb, with a scaffold N50 size of 57.67 Mb, and 97.12% (351.95 Mb) of the assembly is located on six chromosomes. The BUSCO analysis of our assembly indicates a completeness of 96.1% (n = 1,013), including 946 (93.4%) single-copy BUSCOs and 27 (2.7%) duplicated BUSCOs. We identified that the genome contains 22.16% (80.06 Mb) repeat elements and 20,988 predicted protein-coding genes. Gene family evolution analysis of E. proxima identified 177 gene families that underwent significant expansions, which were primarily associated with detoxification and metabolism. Moreover, our inter-genomic synteny analysis showed strong chromosomal synteny between E. proxima and Sinella curviseta. Our study provides valuable genomic information for comprehending the evolution and ecology of Collembola.

Project description:This paper describes Pseudosinella altamirensis sp. nov. from the Altamira Caves, municipal district of Santillana del Mar (Cantabria, Spain), and five other caves near the coast of Cantabria (northern Spain). Its taxonomic position is discussed and differences and similarities among morphologically and geographically close species are highlighted. The new species can be identified by its five eyes, the basal and small inner paired teeth on the claw, and the length of the uncrenulated part of the distal dens.
