Popis: | Bayesian and parsimony phylogenetic analyses of combined and partitioned datasets of molecular (partial sequences of 28S, wg, COI, and CAD) and morphological (51 characters of adults) data for exemplar taxa of five outgroup and 76 ingroup abacetine carabids resulted in a monophyletic Loxandrina Erwin & Sims, 1984 that is split into Australian and American clades. The genusLoxandrusLeConte, 1853 as previously delimited is not monophyletic relative to numerous genus-level taxa in Abacetini Chaudoir, 1873 and is restricted to a subgenus of North American species. A reclassification and nomenclatural changes for the subtribe that are consistent with the phylogeny are provided. Three genera are removed from Loxandrina:AulacopodusBritton, 1940 moved to Pterostichini Bonelli, 1810;CosmodiscusSloane, 1907 andTiferoniaDarlington, 1962 moved to Abacetina. Based on the phylogenetic relationships and nomenclatural priority only four genera are recognized in Loxandrina:CerabiliaLaporte, 1867,ZeoderaLaporte, 1867,PediomorphusChaudoir, 1878, andOxycrepisReiche, 1843. All other previously recognized genera are treated as subgenera. The classification change created eight secondary homonyms that are resolved by the proposal of the following:Oxycrepis gebi, replacement name forO. balli(Straneo, 1993);O. amatona, replacement name forO. matoana(Straneo, 1993);O. xiproma, replacement name forO. proxima(Straneo, 1993);O. rasutulis, replacement name forO. suturalis(Straneo, 1993);O. laevinota, replacement name forO. laevicollis(Bates, 1871);O. arvulap, replacement name forO. parvula(Straneo, 1951);O. noaffine, replacement name forO. affinis(Straneo, 1991);O. alutona, replacement name forO. notula(Tschitschérine, 1901). An overview of the morphological characteristics and diagnostic features of Loxandrina taxa is provided. A key and habitus images are provided for identification of genera and subgenera. The possible historical biogeography of the group is discussed in light of their phylogenetic relationships and past geological events. |
