Ábrahám L.: Ascalaphid studies X. Maezous maezousi sp. n. –a new ascalphid species from the Philppines (Neuroptera: Ascalphidae)
Abrahám L.: Ascalaphid studies X. 57 n. differs from those in the wing pattern of apical area and it has the smallest lateroven- tral projection of male ectoprocts. The pterostigma of Maezous tomijankae is yellow and it has the longest lateroventral projection of ectoproct among the above mentioned species. Both Maezous jianfenglin- gana and Maezous fuscimarginata were described from SE China. The caudal part of abdomen of the types of Maezous jianfanglingana lost so the validity of the species can not be checked. Types of Maezous fuscimarginata from SE China can not be surely separated from the previous species. These Chinese species are easily separated from the new species based on the wing pattern of apical area. A check list of the Philippines Ascalaphidae Ascalaphidae Lefébvre, 1842 Haploglenininae Newman, 1853 Protidricerus irene van der Weele, 1909 Protidricerus philippinensis Esben-Petersen, 1927 Ascalaphinae Lefébvre, 1842 Protacheron philippinensis (van der Weele, 1904) Helicomitus piacidus (Gerstaecker, 1894) Maezous princeps (Gerstaecker, 1894) Maezous lugubris (Gerstaecker, 1894) comb. n. Maezous maezousi Abrahám sp. n. Malesianus harisi (Ábrahám, 2008) comb. n. Suhpalacsa reductus Banks, 1931 Suphalomitus malayanus (McLachlan, 1871) Protidricerus irene van der Weele, 1909 - It is a hardly known valid species and no faunistical data was published since the time of the description. The only type specimen was collected in Borneo (Malaysia). This species has not a sexual dimorphism. Its apical part of wings wider than that of Protidricerus japonicus (MacLachlan, 1891). Apical area with 4-5 rows of cells while that of Protidricerus japonicus with only in 3 rows of cells. Proximal half of pterostigma is dark brown, distal half is yellowish white while that of Protidricerus japonicus (MacLachlan, 1891) is dominantly brown to dark brown. In both wings, the most of cross-veins before Rs are connected with transverse veins to each other. In Protidricerus japonicus there are only 1-2 cells divided in the distal part before Rs. Protidricerus japonicus is not an endemic for Japan but it is a widespread species from Japan via China to Thailand. It is a new record for the fauna of the Philippines. Protidricerus philippinensis Esben-Petersen, 1927 - A new record from Malaysia (Borneo, Sarawak): close to Mindanao (the Philippines) where the species was described. The clypeus and labrum of this species is brown, stemites are dominantly brown without large yellow and black marks than that of Protidricerus japonicus and Protidricerus irene have.
