Taxonomic revision of the genus Asellia (Chiroptera: Hipposideridae) with description of a new species from southern Arabia

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Two species are currently recognised within the genus Asellia: A. tridens from northern Africa and southwestern Asia and A. patrizii, restricted to Ethiopia and Eritrea. We analysed morphological variation throughout the genus range and inferred mtDNA phylogeny of the broadly distributed A. tridens. Morphological comparisons revealed four morphotypes. Except for the endemic A. patrizii, all African and most of the Middle Eastern Asellia belonged to the same morphotype, identified as A. tridens. Two other A. tridens morphotypes were further delimited; one in the southern Arabia, the other in Socotra. MtDNA cytochrome b phylogeny showed three main clades, which corresponded to revealed morphotypes of A. tridens. Genetic divergences among them reached over 5% and 12%, respectively. We proposed a split of the current A. tridens into three separate species: A. tridens in Africa and most of the Middle East, A. italosomalica in Socotra and Somalia, and A. arabica sp. nov. in southern Arabia.
