Remarks on the genus Lipotactes Brunner v. W., 1898 (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Lipotactinae) from China

Abstract

The paper is a supplement of the genus Lipotactes Brunner v. W., 1898 (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Lipotactinae) from China. We rechecked the specimens and distributions, provided the illustrations of important morphological characters of six species distributed in China, one of which, Lipotactes vietnamicus Gorochov, 1993 is firstly recorded from China, and the female of Lipotactes truncatus Shi & Li, 2009 is firstly described.

“…Ingrisch (1995) erected the subfamily and provided the most thorough treatment on the biology and acoustics of this group to date. Since then, a few additions to this subfamily were published, but Lipotactinae is still poorly known with very few references to them beyond the original descriptions (Gorochov, 1993(Gorochov, , 1996(Gorochov, , 1998Chang et al, 2005;Shi & Li, 2009;Feng et al, 2017).…”

New species and records of the genus Lipotactes (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Lipotactinae) from Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand

“…Discussion.-This species was described in detail by Gorochov (1996) and was also reported from China by Feng et al (2017). Some images are given for comparison with the new species described below.…”

“…The species occurrence in Vietnam and Cambodia has been mainly studied by Gorochov (1993Gorochov ( , 1996Gorochov ( , 1998, with additional data by Ingrisch (1995) and Helfert and Sänger (2009). Species from China have recently been reviewed by Feng et al (2017), while Wang and Shi (2020) estimated the effect of global warming on the potential distribution based on the present distribution information and climate data.…”
