Label Information

Type material of 42 species from 15 genera of Membracidae is housed at the Entomology Division of the Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo of La Plata National University, collected mainly in Argentina (21) but also in Uruguay (8), Bolivia (3), Brazil (10), Ecuador (1) and Venezuela (1). The types listed herein correspond to species described by G. S. de Andrade (3 spp.), C. Berg (12 spp.), F. W. Goding (1 sp.), A. M. Marino de Remes Lenicov (25 spp), and S. H. McKamey (1 sp.).

Los colémbolos son hexápodos entognatos (0,2–10 mm) que habitan en ambientes acuáticos y terrestres. Fueron examinados y listados los tipos de 81 especies depositadas en el Museo de La Plata (División Entomología), Argentina. Ellas están distribuidas en  cuarenta y seis géneros y dieciséis familias. La mayoría de los ejemplares tipo, pertenecen a localidades argentinas y fueron descritas por Eduardo Rapoport, Judith Najt y Dora Cutini de Izarra. Se brinda información acerca de los ejemplares tipo, datos de recolección, referencias bibliográficas, citas en otras localidades de Argentina y su nombre válido. La distribución biogeográfica y presencia en ecoregiones argentinas de las especies, fue detallada para mostrar la importancia de la colección como material de referencia en el país.

Original Species

Type material of 11 species from seven genera of Cercopoidea is housed at the Entomology Division of the Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo, Universidad Nacional de La Plata. The types listed herein correspond to species described by C. Berg (10 spp.) and Lallemand (1 sp.). The collection contains 24 type specimens. Lectotype and paralectotypes of Deois (Deois) knoblauchii (Berg), Kanaima katzensteinii (Berg), Mahanarva (Ipiranga) aguirrei (Berg), Tomaspis argentina Berg [= Deois terrea (Germar)], T. perezii Berg [= Deois terrea (Germar)] and T. platensis Berg are designated. Comparison of their original descriptions with the label information supports the existence of 2 holotypes, 6 lectotypes, 10 paralectotypes and 6 syntypes. The following information is given for each species: original species names, taxonomic catalogue, bibliographic references, type category, number of specimens, gender, Museo de La Plata code numbers, and transcription of data from labels (country, province, locality, date of collection, collector’s name, and hosts). Information about subsequent nomenclatural changes with corresponding references, the state of preservation of the specimens in each series and pictures of each species are also provided.

Annotated Catalogue

The type material of 45 Pridolian–Devonian brachiopod species, described in southern Belgium and northern France (1870–1945) and curated at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences (Brussels), is re-investigated and illustrated in order to facilitate future taxonomic revision; such a catalogue should allow a better assessment of the brachiopod diversity during the considered time span. Furthermore, 28 other Silurian–Devonian species originally described in Belgium (1850–1950), but housed in other Belgian or foreign institutions, are also discussed. For taxonomical purposes, the lectotypes of several species are selected; the latter were described by Asselberghs (Stropheodonta couviniensis, Plethorhyncha percostata var. gdoumontensis, Athyris dorlodoti, Retzia gdoumontensis, Dielasma maillieuxi), Béclard (Orthis dorsoplicata, Orthis musischura, Rhynchonella parvula (non R. parvula Eudes-Deslongchamps)), de Ryckholt (Lingula amayana), Dewalque (Crania corneti), and Maillieux (Discina (Discina) forrierensis, Pholidostrophia extensa, Anoplia theorassensis, Schuchertella durbutensis, Streptorhynchus rahiri, Pentamerus loei). Re-investigation of the ambocoeliid Spirifer pentameroides Stainier highlighted the homonymy between Diazoma Dürkoop, 1970 (Brachiopoda) and Diazoma Lamarck, 1816 (Tunicata); the former genus must be rejected and replaced by a valid synonym, namely Kelusia Mamedov, 1978.

The Malacology Collection of the Museo de La Plata contains more 13,000 lots from various regions of Argentina and other South American countries. The Collection also includes 511 type lots. Among the oldest type specimens are a large series of marine gastropod from Patagonia which were studied by Fernando Lahille in 1895. He was one of the first’s naturalists of the Museo de La Plata, and there between 1893 and 1899, he made several studies in zoology. During that time, he described three species and forty varieties of Volutidae. Herein, we compare Lahille’s type specimens, label data, number, and specimen information to the original descriptions and illustrations of these taxa. Each taxon has been photographed in multiple views. This historic type material is entirely composed of shells. This work is the first of a series of photographic catalogues of type material from the Malacology Collection of the Invertebrate Division of Museo de La Plata.

AbstractThe bee species described and identified by Léon Provancher are reviewed. From 1882–1896, Provancher published accounts of 179 bee species from North America, which represent 145 currently recognised species. He proposed 67 new names, 21 of which are here considered valid; five species epithets proposed by Provancher were junior homonyms.The following are considered new junior synonyms of Provancher species:Andrena macrocephalaCockerell underAndrena nigripesProvancher;Pseudopanurgus nebrascensis(Crawford) underPseudopanurgus aestivalis(Provancher);Lasioglossum timberlakeiMcGinley underLasioglossum californicum(Provancher);Osmia kenoyeriCockerell underOsmia tarsataProvancher. Additional new synonymies made here include:Halictus distinguendusDalla Torre underLasioglossum coriaceum(Smith);Osmia parvaProvancher underOsmia atriventrisCresson;Stelis plena(Provancher) underStelis lateralisCresson;Coelioxys tristisProvancher underCoelioxys sodalisCresson;Diadasia tricinctaProvancher underEucera actuosa(Cresson).Lectotypes for 60 of Provancher's bee species are here designated, but type material for eight other species were not found. The taxonomic placement ofCalliopsis quadrilineataProvancher,Calliopsis interruptaProvancher,Hoplitis alboscopata(Provancher),Hoplitis imperfecta(Provancher), andDiadasia albovestitaProvancher within the bee fauna of North America remain unclear, and are here declarednomina oblita.
