“…Identification. The specimens were identified based on the keys and descriptions by Werner (1929) and Liu et al (2020), and the morphology of male genitalia was compared with the holotype and paratype specimens preserved in SMTD (Fig. 3A).…”

“…The group of Hierodula with a reddish thorax and including a long pronotum like H. chinensis has several species in Asia (Liu et al 2020(Liu et al , 2021; all have similar external morphology. Therefore, the Hierodula species with a reddish thorax, which is rapidly being reported in many parts of Japan, should not be identified as H. chinensis based on the limited characters of thorax color and forecoxal spines.…”

“…They were packed in entomological envelopes individually and taken to a laboratory of Gifu University. The specimens were compared with the holotype and paratype specimens of H. chinensis and the descriptions by Liu et al (2020). The male genitalia were dissected according to Battiston et al (2010).…”

“…Hierodula Burmeiser, 1838 is the largest genus in Mantodea, containing approximately 110 species (Zhu et al 2012). More than half of the species in this genus are distributed in the oriental realm (Patel and Singh 2016;Liu et al 2020). Hierodula is suggested to be paraphyletic with respect to the other genera and needs revision (Schwarz and Roy 2019), but this taxonomic problem has not been unsolved yet.…”

We report on a new distribution record of Hierodula chinensis Werner, 1929 from Gifu Prefecture, Honshu, Japan. This species is distributed in China and recently recorded from Korea. This is the first formal record of this species from Japan. Our comparison of the morphological characters of Japanese specimens with those of type specimens revealed that H. chinensis from Japan has dimorphic male genitalia and retains morphological diversity.

Hierodulinae is a species-rich mantid subfamily, with some species bearing a notable leaf-like pronotum. However, the evolutionary pattern and taxonomic significance of the leaf-like pronotum are largely unknown. Here, we present a phylogenomic analysis of the Hierodulinae genera Rhombodera Burmeister, 1838, and Hierodula Burmeister, 1838 based on mitochondrial genomes. We also describe a new species, namely Rhombodera hyalina sp. nov. from Guangxi, China. Our phylogenetic result, together with the evidence from male genitalia, suggests the division of the Oriental Hierodula and Rhombodera complex into three clades. We find a complex pattern on the evolution of the leaf-like pronotum, which is present in at least five lineages, respectively, of the above three clades.

This article aims to present a phylogenetic evaluation of Mantidae based on a mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) data set. The mitogenome of 10 Mantidae species were sequenced using next-generation sequencing. The length of nine the complete mitogenomes ranged from 15,371 bp in Tenodera aridifolia to 16,063 bp in Hierodula longa. Mantidae mitogenomes have 37 genes and control region with two exceptions: five trnR copies in Statilia maculata, and H. zhangi was incomplete missing trnI, trnQ, trnM and a portion of the control region. There was a large noncoding region (LNC) between trnM and nad2 in H. chinensis, H. longa, H. maculata and Titanodula sp. Most of proteincoding genes (PCGs) used the typical start ATN codon and TAA/TAG stop codons. All tRNAs fold into the typical clover-leaf secondary structure except trnS1 which lacks a dihydrouracil (DHU) arm. Nucleotide diversity and Ka/Ks analysis of 13 PCGs showed that atp8 had the highest variability and fastest evolutionary rate. Phylogenetic relationships among 42 Mantidae species were reconstructed using the 13 PCGs and two rRNA genes using Bayesian Inference (BI) and Maximum Likelihood (ML) methods. Of the seven mantid subfamilies included in this analysis, only four had multiple exemplars, and of those only Mantinae and Vatinae formed monophyletic groups in BI and ML trees. Consistent with previous studies, the monophyly of the Hierudulinae and Tenoderinae were not been
