Name

Choriphyllum saussurei Bolívar, 1887 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

  • Choriphyllum saussurei Bolívar, 1887: 203–204 (original description, type locality Cuba, and holotype drawing); Bolívar 1888[1]: 146 (listed in the catalogue); Gundlach 1891[2]: 347 (new records and habitat observation, “He encontrado esta especie en la Isla de Pinos y en Trinidad, en la Montaña debajo de hojarasca.”). Taxonomic and nomenclatural history.
  • Phyllonotus saussurei Bol.; Hancock 1902a[3]: 45–46 (included in the key, re-description provided).
  • Choriphyllum saussurei Bolívar; Hancock 1907[4]: 13 (listed in the catalogue, redrawn after Bolívar 1887[5]); Kirby 1910[6]: 6 (listed in the catalogue); Paris. 1994[1993]: 248 (status of the syntypes); Yong and Perez-Gelabert 2014a[7]: 406 (listed in the checklist); Yong and Perez-Gelabert 2014b[8]: 131–132 (listed in the catalogue); Hollier 2016[9]: 27 (status of the syntypes in MHNG); Silva et al. 2019[10]: 3, 5, 6, 9 (information on syntypes, included in the key, photographs of the type specimens).

Type locality

Cuba, without a specified location (Bolívar 1887[5]; 1888[1]).

Type specimens

Syntype. ♀ Cuba • Gundlach leg.; MNHNC.; Syntypes. Cuba • 2♀ M. H. de Saussure leg. MHNG. Syntypes from the MHNG on the OSF, http://orthoptera.speciesfile.org/Common/basic/Taxa.aspx?TaxonNameID=1100632.

Other specimens

Cuba • 1 ♂; Sierra del Grillo; Apr 1969; P. Alayo leg.; IES.
Cuba • 1 ♀; Mayabeque Province, Jaruco Municipality, Escaleras de Jaruco; 9 Apr 1979; J. de la Cruz leg.; IES.
Cuba • 1 ♀; Isla de la Juventud Especial Municipality, Isla de Pinos, Punta del Este; 19 May 1974; L. F. de Armas leg.; IES.

Distribution

(Fig. 2). The Cuban Wavy Dancing Leaf inhabits Cuba (Trinidad, Sierra del Grillo and Escaleras de Jaruco) and Isla de Pinos (Gundlach 1891[2], this study) where it can be found mostly in the mountains, where it dwells in the leaf litter (Gundlach 1891[2]). This species is endemic from west-central Cuba.

Diagnosis

(Figs 1, 3).Choriphyllum saussurei can be differentiated from its congeners by: (1) the caudal tip of the pronotum which reaches the tips of the hind knees, but not beyond (reaches behind the hind knees in C. (sagrai)), (2) the shape of the caudal tip of the pronotum which is excised at an angle (excised vertically in C. bahamense) and (3) the low, concave, sharply sloped caudal margin of the crest with a strong undulation (in C. (sagrai) the crest is higher, convex and sharply sloped and, in C. bahamense, it is higher, concave and moderately sloped).

Measurements

See Table 1.

Figure 3. Annotated schematic pictorial key to genera and species of Choriphyllini. Specimens are not to scale; for size comparison see Fig. 1. The red line shows the position of the highest point of the pronotal crest. The blue arrow points to the anterior margin of the pronotum; the green arrow points to the posterior pronotal tip; and the purple arrow points to the caudal margin of the pronotal crest. Shown are silhouettes of the type specimens of each species. For C. sagrai, shown is the silhouette of Serville’s (1838)[11] drawing of the holotype. The capital sinus is marked in red and pointed out in grey.
