Integrative species delimitation in spider mites by phylogenomics, morphometrics and niche modeling

在此期间，我以通讯作者的身份在《动物学研究》上发表了一篇文章《台湾的灯笼蝇（半翅目：萤科）》。Fulgoridae属于半翅目，以其壮观的身体颜色而闻名。然而，种内体色多态性常常引起分类学上的困难和问题。本文是台湾首次全面讨论灯笼蝇科的分类，讨论了颜色在灯笼蝇分类中的一般应用，并强调了雄性生殖器在分类中的重要性。本研究共报道了台湾6属8种，其中包括新记录的一种：Limois westwoodii。根据其雄性生殖器的形态特征，提出橄榄石蒜（Lycorma olivacea）是石蒜（Lycorma meliae）的一个新的初级同义种。台湾湿麻五龄若虫也首次被发现。我们相信本研究将成为台湾乃至全球富氏体研究的重要框架。

During this period, I published an article “Lanternflies (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae) of Taiwan” in “Zoological Studies” as a corresponding author. Fulgoridae belongs to Hemiptera and is known for its spectacular body coloration. However, intraspecific polymorphism in body coloration often causes taxonomic difficulties and problems. This is the first comprehensive discussion of the taxonomy of Fulgoridae in Taiwan, discussing the general application of color in the taxonomy of lanternflies and highlighting the importance of male genitalia to taxonomy. In this study, eight species in six genera from Taiwan were reported, including one newly recorded species, Limois westwoodii. Lycorma olivacea was proposed as a new junior synonym of Lycorma meliae based on the morphology of its male genitalia. The fifth-instar nymph of Saiva formosana was also described for the first time. We believe that this study will become the crucial framework of fulgorid studies not only in Taiwan but also worldwide.
