New species, new locality records and descriptions of calling songs of Phaneropterinae from Sabah

1. The paper describes two new species of katydids from the subfamily Phaneropterinae found in Sabah, Borneo: Tapiena dimidia sp. nov. from Maliau Basin and Tapiena munae sp. nov. from Sinipung Hill near Long Pasia and Meligan.  Additionally, it records new locality records for several species, including Elbenia (Elbenia) paradigitata, Stictophaula multa, Holochlora falcata, and Psyrana (Psyrana) nr. imitativa. The study also provides the first descriptions of the calling songs of four Phaneropterinae species, contributing to the taxonomy and bioacoustics of these insects.

The Malayan Nature Journal- 81st Anniversary Special Issue 2021

We review the distribution and life history of this rare and elusive birdwing, endemic to Borneo, known only from ten isolated localities and one major cluster of sites – Mt Kinabalu. We judge ‘Vulnerable’ as a fair recent assessment for this species in the Red Data List of IUCN (Böhm, 2018).We review what is known of the evolutionary relationships of Troides species and outline the work underway to place andromache in this context through work at Wageningen University in the Netherlands, partly by profiling 100-year-old DNA from museum specimens.We discuss the risk factors of forest clearance, increasing forest patchiness, drying out and regional temperature rise due to global warming on the future of this species.We describe our nascent methodology for breeding free-flying birdwings which will stay close to village homestays because of the provision of abundant food sources for larvae and adults. The aim is to create a new income stream for the homestay owners through ecotourism.We discuss the promotional and fund-raising strategies we are employing to aid the conservation of this noble butterfly, and the promise of raising conservation awareness generally, through art.

A new species of marine cave copepod, Peltidium penyu (Copepoda: Harpacticoida: Peltidiidae) from the Turtle Tomb, Sipadan Island, Sabah, Malaysia

From access licence JKM/MBS.1000-2/2/1 JLD.1 (223): A new species of harpacticoid copepod, Peltidium penyu, is described from a marine cave (Turtle Tomb) in Sabah, Malaysia. The Malaysian Peltidium is characterised by a combination of the following characters: the skeletal pattern of chitin struts; the armaments of the maxilliped; and the construction of the maxilla. The new species seems to be related to P. exiguum, sharing the characteristics of skeletal pattern of chitin struts and armature formula of P1-P5, but differs from the Arafuran species based on segmentation of antennule, as well as the construction and armament of the maxilla and maxilliped.

Taxonomy and phylogeny of Pleurocordyceps (Polycephalomycetaceae, Hypocreales) associated with ants and cicadas from Malaysia, including a new species and new records

From access licence JKM/MBS.1000-2/2 JLD.20 (146) and JKM/MBS.1000-2/2 JLD.21 (137): The study describes a new species, Pleurocordyceps cornusynnemata sp. nov. (BORH/F03651) from an ant, and two new records of P. aurantiaca (BORH/F03651), and P. nipponica (UTHM-CEF003.1) from Diptera and cicada nymph, respectively. These findings expand the knowledge of the geographic distribution of Pleurocordyceps and provide the first baseline data for the genus in Malaysia, thereby improving understanding of the diversity and evolutionary relationships within Polycephalomycetaceae.
