我国六种新蚤雄性阉割描记及关于单齿新蚤的商榷(蚤目:多毛蚤科)

CASTRATED MALES IN GENUS NEOPSYLLA FROM CHINA AND A DISCUSSION ABOUT NEOPSYLLA MONODENTATIFORMIS (SIPHONAPTERA: HYSTRICHOPSYLLIDAE)

在所收藏的蚤类标本中,查出新蚤属6种、亚种25例雄性阉割畸形,其中阿巴盖新蚤Neopsyllaabagattut3例,二齿新蚤N. bidentatiformis9例,类新蚤N. compar 1例,近代新蚤东方亚种N.pleskei ortentalis 4例,鞍新蚤N. sellaris 7例,特新蚤指名亚种N. s. specialis 1例。这些标本获自黑龙江、吉林、内蒙古、宁夏、甘肃、河北和云南。本文对畸形蚤形态进行了描述。分析关于单齿新蚤Neopsylla monodentattformis Huang et Xie,1987的原始描述和形态特征图,认为其载名模式可能系二齿新蚤畸形标本,那么其种名将成为国际动物命名法规拒绝的名称。

This paper reports 25 cases of male fleas castrated from Heilongjiang, Jilin, Nei Mon-gol, Ningxia, Gansu, Hebei and Yunnan Provinces, China. They belong to 6 species (or sub-species) in genus Neopsylla: N. abagaitui (3 cases), N. bidentatiformis (9 cases), N. compar (1 case), N. pleskei orientalis (4 cases), N. sellaris (7 cases) and N. s. specialis (1 case). The morphology of teratogenic fleas are described.Taxonomic position about Neopsylla monodentatiformis Huang et Xie, 1987 (SSichuan J. Zool. 7(1): 5-7) are also discussed. It will be possible that the name Neopsylla monodentati-formis might be treated as an excluded name by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature because the name-bearing type based probably on teratological specimens in N. bidcn-tatiformis.
