The diplurans have been little studied and the number of individuals known in
the world so far reflects well this reality. Currently there are little more of 840 species
described in the the world. There are 37 species described for Brazil, 16 belonging to
Japygidae, restricted, mainly, for the south region. This work aims to contribute with
taxonomic knowledge of Japygidae (Diplura), through descriptions, drawings and a map
with geographic registers of the species collected in three cities of the Central
Amazonia. A guide, emphasizing the Japygidae, was elaborated to facilitate futures
studies with the group. About 60 individuals were analyzed and four species and a new
genus (Aculeojapyx gen.n.) were described as new. We described two new species for
the genera Aculeojapyx, (Aculeojapyx sp. n. I e Aculeojapyx sp. n. II), a new species for
Austrjapyx Silvestri 1948 (Austrjapyx sp. n. I), extending the distribution to north
Brazil, and a new species for Mixojapyx Silvestri 1933 (Mixojapyx sp. n. I), registered
for the first time in Brazil. |
