Udearuckdescheli sp. n. from Crete and its phylogenetic relationships (Pyraloidea, Crambidae, Spilomelinae)

摘要

DNA barcode data reveal a distinct group of Udea specimens collected on Crete and previously misidentified as Udeafulvalis (H????bner, 1809) and Udealanguidalisab.veneralis (Staudinger, 1870). Morphological examination of the specimens corroborates their status as a distinct species which is described as Udearuckdeschelisp. n. Images of the adults and the genitalia of both sexes, as well as the DNA barcode sequences are presented. A phylogenetic analysis using molecular (COI, wingless) and morphological data indicates that the new species belongs to the Udeanumeralis (H????bner, 1796) species group and is sister to the Udeafimbriatralis (Duponchel, 1833) species complex.
