这项研究的重点是Merodon属中的avidus-nigritarsis谱系,探索形态学,遗传,以及该谱系中两个相关组件的分布方面:克拉维普斯和普鲁尼物种组。遵循综合分类学方法,以确保全面的物种识别和验证,使用成人形态学,机翼几何形态计量学,和mtDNACOI基因的遗传分析。在Clavipes小组中,确定了七个物种,包括三个新物种:M.aenigmaticusVujić,Radenković&Likov,sp.11月。,M.latensVujić,Radenković&Likov,sp.11月。,和M.rufofemeorisVujić,Radenković&Likov,sp.11月。在普鲁尼集团,我们的修订揭示了一个新物种,M.aequalisVujić,Radenković&Likov,sp.11月。,以及对MerodonobcurusGilCollado的重新验证,1929年,统计。rev.MerodonpallidusMacquart,1842年被重新描述。诊断,物种识别键,并提供分布图,和SyrphusclavipesFabricius的新类型,1781年和Merodonquadrinotatus(麻袋,1931)被指定。此外,提出了以下新的同义词:M.clavipesalbussyn.11月。,M.clavipesatersyn.11月。,M.clavipesnigersyn.11月。,还有M.splendenssyn.11月。是M.clavipes和M.veloxarmeniacussyn的初级同义词。11月。和M.veloxanathemasyn。11月。是M.veloxx的初级同义词。
This study focuses on the avidus-nigritarsis lineage within the genus Merodon, exploring morphological, genetic, and distributional aspects of two related assemblies within this lineage: the clavipes and pruni species groups. An integrative taxonomic approach was followed to ensure comprehensive species identification and validation, using adult morphology, wing geometric morphometrics, and genetic analysis of the mtDNA COI gene. In the clavipes group, seven species were identified, including three new species: M.aenigmaticus Vujić, Radenković & Likov, sp. nov., M.latens Vujić, Radenković & Likov, sp. nov., and M.rufofemoris Vujić, Radenković & Likov, sp. nov. In the pruni group, our revision revealed a new species, M.aequalis Vujić, Radenković & Likov, sp. nov., and the revalidation of Merodonobscurus Gil Collado, 1929, stat. rev. Merodonpallidus Macquart, 1842 is redescribed. Diagnoses, identification keys to species, and distribution maps are provided, and neotypes for Syrphusclavipes Fabricius, 1781 and Merodonquadrinotatus (Sack, 1931) are designated. Additionally, the following new synonyms are proposed: M.clavipesalbus syn. nov., M.clavipesater syn. nov., M.clavipesniger syn. nov., and M.splendens syn. nov. are junior synonyms of M.clavipes; and M.veloxarmeniacus syn. nov. and M.veloxanathema syn. nov. are junior synonyms of M.velox.
