对瓦努阿图群岛的进一步研究提高了我们对南太平洋沿岸萤火虫实际多样性的了解。在瓦努阿图最近的田野调查之前,瓦努阿图唯一已知的lampyrid是Atyphella aphrogeneia (Ballantyne),这是一种在巴布亚新几内亚也发现的沿海物种。经过进一步的研究,我们确定来自瓦努阿图的标本以前被归类为阿特菲拉·阿弗洛吉尼亚,实际上属于一个未被描述的物种。从瓦努阿图收集的标本中描述了海生阿特菲拉(Atyphella maritimus Saxton and Powell)和海生阿特菲拉(Atyphella mariatius Saxton and Bybee)新种。提供了南太平洋沿海阿特菲拉的最新钥匙。
Additional work on the islands of Vanuatu has improved our understanding of the actual diversity of South Pacific coastal fireflies. Prior to recent fieldwork in Vanuatu, the only known lampyrid from Vanuatu was Atyphella aphrogeneia (Ballantyne), a coastal species also found in Papua New Guinea. After further examination, we determined that specimens from Vanuatu formerly classified as Atyphella aphrogeneia actually belong to an undescribed species. New species, Atyphella maritimus Saxton and Powell and Atyphella marigenous Saxton and Bybee, are described from specimens collected in Vanuatu. An updated key for coastal Atyphella in the South Pacific is provided.
