Distance of collected specimens in this study is 800 km far away from the previous reports of this species in Iran in the coastal plain of Fars and Kerman provinces as well as the lower Mesopotamian plain in Khuzestan. Our specimens were collected during night on loose sand among scattered low desert shrubs. New updated distribution map for the species is presented which extends the distribution of this lizard into eastern and southeastern Iran. Morphometrics and morphological characters of the collected specimens along with notes on ecological aspects of the study area are provided.展开更多

This species is assigned to the variegotum-group of the subgenus Simulium, and is closely related to S. (S.)jingfui Cai and An, 2008, S. (S.) taiwanicum Takaoka, 1979, S. (S.) hackeri Edwards 1928, S. (S.) chamlongi Takaoka and Suzuki, 1984. However it is clearly differentiated from them by the structure of cibarium, genital fork, genital plate, paraproct and cercus of the female. All the specimens are kept in the Medical Entomology Collection Gallery, Academy of Military Medical Sciences, Beijing.展开更多

The name Pronous minutus (S. Saito,1939) is synonymized with Pronoides brunneus Schenkel,1936. The male of H. taepaikensis is illustrated for the first time. Composition of the fauna is briefly discussed; 41% of the recorded species have their ranges confined to the SE Palaearctics. By its species diversity,the reserve's fauna is the second largest local fauna eastward of the Urals. An expected spider diversity of this reserve is likely to be over 400 species.展开更多
