Abstract |
Megabranchiella gen. nov. (Ephemeroptera: Baetidae) is established as a new baetid mayfly genus from
northern Thailand. Two new species, Megabranchiella scutulata sp. nov. and Megabranchiella longusa
sp. nov., are described. This genus is distinguished from other Baetidae by abdominal segment I, bearing
a pair of enlarged, ventrally oriented single gills, covering abdominal sternites II–V; other gills have
normal size and are dorsolaterally oriented. The two new species Megabranchiella longusa sp. nov. and
Megabranchiella scutulata sp. nov. can be differentiated by the setation of femur dorsal margin and the
shape of abdominal gill I. This mayfly genus was found in flowing water with cobble microhabitats in
headwater streams of northern Thailand. |
