Their classification has been controversial for many years . Due to the similarities of their overall appearance , many workers regarded P punctatissimus as a synonym of P argenteus Even though a few authors recognized the differences between them ,there has been great confusion on the nomenclature . Morpholoically , these two species have obvious differences in some aspects , in particular, the number of gill rakers and vertebrae, the lateral line branches in the head, the fin formula , etc.. As these differences comprised sufficient differentiation of these two species, Pampus punctatissimus (Temminck et Schlegel, 1845) was recognized as a species distinct from P argenteus (Euphrasen, 1788). A redescription of it is given in the present study.展开更多
The Holarctic erigonid genus Zornella has been surveyed. Four species are recognized in this genus, two Palaearctic: Z.cultrigera(L.Koch,11879) & Z.orientalis sp.nov., and two Nearctic: Z.armata(Banks, 1906) &...The Holarctic erigonid genus Zornella has been surveyed. Four species are recognized in this genus, two Palaearctic: Z.cultrigera(L.Koch,11879) & Z.orientalis sp.nov., and two Nearctic: Z.armata(Banks, 1906) & Z.cryptodon Chamberlin,1920.It is demonstrated that neither nearctic species is conspecific with Z.cultrigera as was thought by Holm and other authors. Z.orientalis sp.nov. is described from northeastern Siberia. All of the species are illustrated and their distributions mapped.展开更多
