Longinos Navas's Odonata species from China: Notes on three synonymies in Platycnemididae, including the synonymy of Pseudocopera tokyoensis (Asahina, 1948)

摘要

Based on the study of the relevant type specimens and other material, the following synonymies in Platycnemididae are established: Pseudocopera tokyoensis (Asahina, 1948) is a junior synonym of Pseudocopera rubripes (Navas, 1934) (comb. nov.), Platy-cnemis foliosa Navas, 1932 is a junior synonym of Platycnemis phyllopoda Djakonov, 1926, and Platycnemis pierrati Navas, 1935, is a junior synonym of Copera marginipes (Rambur, 1842). The present taxonomic status of the 30 new Odonata species and one variety described by Longinos Navas from China is presented in a table and briefly discussed, pointing out a few poorly known, or dubious taxa in need of further study.
