In contrast to Subias (2004) we consider Allobelba Kunst, 1961 and Neobelba Bulanova-Zachvatkina, 1967 as separate genera, not subgenera of Metabelba. We consider the subgenus Metabelba (Parametabel-ba) Mihelcic, 1964, to be a nomen nudum and propose a new subgenus—Metabelba {Pateribelba) n. subg., with type species Metabelba (Pateribelba) sphagni Strenzke, 1950—to replace it. Pateribelba n. subg. includes species of Metabelba without the propodolateral apophysis. Together with the type species, the following named species (new combinations) belong to this subgenus: Metabelba (Pateribelba) italica (Sellnick, 1931); M. (P.) romandiolae (Sellnick, 1943); M. (P.) platynotus Grandjean, 1954; M. (P.) ericius Kunst, 1957; M. (P.) rhodopeia Kunst, 1961; M. (P.) filippovi Bulano-va-Zachvatkina, 1965; M. (P.) flagelliseta Bulanova-Zachvatkina, 1965; M. (P.) monilipeda Bulanova-Zachvatkina, 1965; M. (P.)pseudoitalica Bulanova-Zachvatkina, 1965; M. (P.)petraitalica Kulijev, 1967, M. (P.) glabriseta Mahunka, 1982 and M. (P.) machadoi Perez-Inigo, 1986. A new species Metabelba (Pateribelba) denscanis n. sp. is described and illustrated; it is characterized mainly by the presence of a notogastral cornicle in the adult. It was found in Central Bohemia (Czech Republic), Upper Silesia (Poland) and South Tyrol (Italy). Metabelba romandiolae and M. sphagni are redescribed and illustrated. Metabelba gladiator Mihelcic, 1963 is considered to be junior synonym of M. romandiolae. Metabelba lanceolata van der Hammen, 1952 is considered to be a junior synonym of M. sphagni. We also provide a ten-ative diagnostic key of theknown species of Metabelba (Pateribelba) n. subg., based on detailed study of available species and a review of literature data.

Of these, 20 are found to be junior synonyms of well-known shallow-water species. One species, however, Cancer raihoae Curtiss, 1938, is a possible senior synonym of Portunus hawaiiensis Stephenson, 1968 (Portu-nidae).

In this paper we verified the presence of both species inFrench Guiana and provided a new record, Martiodrilus (Botaria) helleri (Michaelsen, 1918). Furthermore, two new species were described: Martiodrilus (Botaria) dewynteri sp. nov. and Martiodrilus (Maipure) gaucheri sp. nov. The subgeneric division of the genus Martiodrilus is briefly discussed.

    查看更多>>摘要：Dasypus novemcinctus, Linnaeus, 1758 (Dasypodidae) occurs from, Southern United States to South America (Reis et al. 2006). They have fossorial terrestrial habits, and the majority of the species construct burrow and excavate the soil to obtain food (Carter & Encarnacao 1983). They are essentially solitary except during the brief mating period. Many armadillos of this species are run over and killed on highways (Fischer 1997) and they are also extensively hunted, but they are not listed as endangered due to their large distribution.
