Based on morphological and karyological investigations, the genus complex Archiloa sensu Karling (1966) is revised. The group contains seven genera, two of which are here described as new: Archiloa de Beauchamp, 1910, Archilopsis Meixner, 1938, Mesoda Marcus, 1949, Monocelopsis Ax, 1951, Archilina Ax, 1959, Inaloa gen. n., and Tajikina gen. n. The genus Pistrix Marcus, 1951 is synonymized with Mesoda Marcus, 1949. Eleven species are transferred to other genera. Seven new Archilina species are described from the Mediterranean: A. brachycirrus, A. deceptoria, A. etrusca, A. palestinica, A. selenifera, A. biselenifera, and A. caliban. Two distinct “morphs” are recognized within A. endostyla Ax, 1959. The genus Archilina now contains 12 species, 8 of which... |

The current classification system for the Monocelididae which is based on the character "presence or absence of an accessory prostatoid organ" divides the family into two subfamilies, namely the Minoninae and the Monocelididinae. However, other characters relating to the structure of the male copulatory bulb and to karyotypes do not support this division. Monocelidid male copulatory bulbs can be either of the simplex or the duplex-type, and if this character is mapped onto the current classification, then both subfamilies contain species with either type of copulatory bulb. We therefore decided to construct an independent phylogeny for the Monocelididae using nucleotide-sequence data of the gene coding for the 26/28S rDNA. Distance and parsimony-based... |

Mechanisms of karyotype evolution in the Monocelididae (<i>Turbellaria Proseriata</i>). Within the Proseriata (Turbellaria: Seriata), the family Monocelididae displays several interesting patterns of chromosomal evolution. A basic set of n = 3 -made up or one large metacentric, one medium-sized metacentric and one small clearly heterobrachial chromosome -has been detected. It is widely distributed in species pertaining to both the subfamilies in which the Monocelididae are subdivided. From this basic set, other complements -either with n = 3 or n > 3 -would be originated.Several karyological mechanisms or common occurrence within the family (translocations, small chromosome rearrangements involving the centromere, genome growth) have been... |
