New systematic assignments in Gonyleptoidea (Arachnida, Opiliones, Laniatores)
As part of an ongoing revision of the family Gonyleptidae, we have identified many species that are synonyms of previously described species or misplaced in this family. This article summarizes these findings, adding previously unavailable information or correcting imprecise observations to justify the presented taxonomic changes. THE FOLLOWING NEW FAMILIAL OR SUBFAMILIAL ASSIGNMENTS ARE PROPOS...
متن کاملSexually dimorphic tegumental gland openings in Laniatores (Arachnida, Opiliones), with new data on 23 species.
Sexually dimorphic glands often release sexual pheromones both in vertebrates and invertebrates. Species of Laniatores (Arachnida, Opiliones) seem to depend on chemical communication but few studies have addressed this topic. In this study, we review the literature for the Phalangida and present new data for 23 species of Laniatores. In 16 taxa, we found previously undescribed sexually dimorphi...

متن کاملReproductive morphology of three species of neotropical harvestmen (Opiliones, Laniatores, Gonyleptoidea).
Illustrations of penis morphology are essential components of species descriptions for harvestmen belonging to the suborder Laniatores. Male genitalia are important sources of taxonomic characters and are generally assumed to exhibit relatively little intraspecific variation. In contrast, descriptions of female reproductive morphology are rarely included in taxonomic descriptions of laniatorean...
متن کاملSurvey of cuticular structures on leg IV of cosmetid harvestmen (Opiliones: Laniatores: Gonyleptoidea)
The legs of laniatorean harvestmen feature a considerable diversity of setae, glandular openings, sensory structures, and tubercles. In this study, we compared the morphology of cuticular structures occurring on leg IV of 12 species of cosmetid harvestmen and six species of other gonyleptoidean harvestmen representing the families Agoristenidae, Gonyleptidae (three subfamilies), and Stygnidae. ...
