Taxonavigation

Ordo: Orthoptera
Familia: Tetrigidae
Genus: Phyllotettix

Name

Phyllotettix (compressus) complex nov. – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

Composition and distribution

(Figs 1, 2). The complex includes two very similar species, P. compressus and P. foliatus, which are endemic to Jamaica. The complex may include more undescribed species, but may also represent a single variable species whose variation has not been correctly assessed yet.

Diagnosis

(Figs 1, 3). The tip of the pronotum does not reach behind the hind knees. Pronotum rectangular/rhomboid in shape. In lateral view, the anterior margin of the pronotum may be more or less undulated, while the posterior margin of the pronotal crest is excised or convex. The posterior tip of the pronotum is sharp.

Figure 2. Biogeography of the Caribbean Jumping Leaves (Cladonotinae, Choriphyllini). Biogeographic data of the tribe Choriphyllini is scarce. The distribution map of the six species belonging to this leaf-like tribe has the distribution of three species missing, as no localities are known.

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)[1] drawing of the holotype. The capital sinus is marked in red and pointed out in grey.
