Jana III Sobieskiego 2, 41-902 Bytom, Poland. E-mail: a.larysz@muzeum.bytom.pl Abstract Reisseronia annae sp. nov. is described from the province of Upper Silesia in southern Poland. The species is similar to its parthenogenetic relatives Reisseronia imielinella Malkiewicz, Sobczyk & Larysz, 2013 and R. gertrudae Sieder, 1962. The diagnosis of other related congeneric species is provided. The habitat and life history is described. Key words: Epichnopteriginae, taxonomy, new species, Poland Introduction The genus Reisseronia Sieder, 1956 includes 15 species occurring in central and south-eastern Europe and also south-western Asia (Sieder 1956; Sauter & Hättenschwiler 1991; Sobczyk 2011, Malkiewicz et al. 2013; Weidlich 2016). Some of them have been described in recent years (Hättenschwiler 1982; Hauser 1996; Kurz et al. 2006; Weidlich 2006, 2016; Malkiewicz et al. 2013). All known species of Reisseronia have apterous females. Because of weak mobility there is a high percentage of endemic species (Malkiewicz et al. 2013). Two of these are known to be parthenogenetic: Reisseronia gertrudae Sieder, 1962 from Styria (Austria) and Reisseronia imielinella Malkiewicz, Sobczyk & Larysz, 2013 from Upper Silesia (Poland) (Sieder 1962; Gepp & Trattnig 1990; Hättenschwiler 2004; Larysz 2007, 2016; Sobczyk 2011; Malkiewicz et al. 2013). Only 11 entirely parthenogenetic species are known among the Psychidae (Hättenschwiler 2004; Malkiewicz et al. 2013). In 2013, I found a new Reisseronia species, also with parthenogenetic development, in Katowice, Upper Silesia, Poland. The differences in the antennae, morphology of legs, pupae, pupal head plate and female genitalia, led me to the conclusion that I was dealing with a separate taxon, different from the previously known representatives of the genus Reisseronia (Larysz 2016). Material and methods In 2013 the new species was found in Janów, a district of Katowice, Upper Silesia, southern Poland, in an industrial area, on a dry, ruderal meadow overgrown with low vegetation (Larysz 2016). The locality lies at an altitude of 270 m. Most of the larvae were found on the concrete fencing around the premises of a scrap metal company. Some cases with larvae were also found on the ground near the fence. Collected larvae were kept in laboratory conditions. Continuous breeding of several generations of larvae showed these species to be parthenogenetic, as is the case with R. imielinella and R. gertrudae (Larysz 2016). Most of the larvae were reared to adults. Adults, larvae, pupae and cases were photographed using a binocular Nikon SMZ1500 equipped with a Microscopic photographic system and a Nikon digital DS Fi1 camera. The females were examined in 75% ethanol. For further study, three specimens were dissected and studied in glycerol. The examined larvae and pupae are preserved in 75% ethanol. The description of the pupal morphology follows Patočka (1999) and Patočka & Turčani (2005). The terminology used for the morphological characters follows Davis & Robinson (1998) and Sauter & Hättenschwiler (1999). Accepted by J.

The males of all 13 species of the genus Reisseronia are known. Two species R. gertrudae and R. imielinella are known as parthenogenetic. The species Reisseronia annae sp. nov. described in this paper was found to be also parthenogenetic (Larysz 2016). R. annae sp. nov. differs from R. gertrudae and R. imielinella in the size of the females and larval cases, the number of antennal segments, and the structure of the legs, pupae, pupal head plate and female genitalia. Comparing the here below described species with the congeneric ones the diagnostic differences are as follows: The new species is similar to the reduced females of R. tschetverikovi Solanikov, 1990 (female length 4.5–5.0 mm, width 1.2 mm), but differs in the length of hairs (long, curled in R. annae sp. nov., short, erect in R. tschetverikovi) on the head and thorax, and the number of antennal segments (three segments in R. annae sp. nov., one segment in R. tschetverikovi) (Rutjan 2003). Females of R. muscaelutum Kurz, Kurz & Zeller-Lukashort, 2006 (female length 3.7 mm, width 0.85 mm) differ from the new species by having short, erect hairs on the head and thorax and by having smaller larval cases (length 6.0 mm, width 1.6 mm) (Kurz et al. 2006), while females of R. annae sp. nov. have long, curled hairs on the head and thorax, and their larval case are as big as 7.2 mm in length and 2.0 mm in width. Females of R. staudingeri (Heylaerts, 1879) and R. satanella Kurz, Kurz & Zeller-Lukashort, 2006 are similar in size to these of R. annae sp. nov. R. staudingeri—length 3.5–5.0 mm, width 1.3 mm, R. satanella—length 4.5– 5.25 mm, width 1.15–1.35 mm), R. annae sp. nov.—length 3.0–4.2 mm, width 0.9–1.3 mm, but differ from the former two species in the number of antennal segments: in R. staudingeri one antennal segment, in R. satanella 8– 10 antennal segments, in R. annae sp. nov. three antennal segments. The size of their larval cases also serve as a diagnostic character. The larval case length 11.0–14.0 mm, width 3.0–4.0 mm in R. staudingeri, 7.0–9.5 mm, width 1.5–2.7 mm in R. satanella (Kurz et al. 2006), while larval case length 7.0–7.4 mm, width 1.6 mm–2.6 mm in R. annae sp. nov. Females of R. arnscheidi Wiedlich, 2006 are similar (2–3 antennal segments, 1–2 tarsal segments, length 4.0– 4.5 mm) to these of R. annae sp. nov. (three antennal segments, one tarsal segment, length 3.0–4.2 mm), but their larval cases are larger (length 8.0–10.0 mm. width 2.0 mm) (Weidlich 2006; Malkiewicz et al. 2013), while in R. annae sp. nov. larval cases are smaller (length 7.0–7.4 mm). Females of other congeneric species and their larval cases are larger: females of R. tarnierella (Bruand, 1851) are 5.0–6.5 mm in length, and have 2–3 antennal segments, 2–3 tarsal segments and 8.0 mm long larval cases; females of R. nigrociliella (Rebel, 1934) are 6.0–7.0 mm in length, and have 2 antennal segments, 4–5 tarsal segments and larval cases 7.0–12.0 mm in length; females of R. pusilella (Rebel, 1940) are 5.0–6.0 mm long, and have 5–6 antennal segments, 3 tarsal segments, and 10.0 mm long larval cases. The largest two species of the genus are R. magna Hättenschwiler, 1982 (female length 10.0 mm, 2 antennal segments, 5 tarsal segments, larval case length 16.0–20.0 mm) (Hättenschwiler 1982) and R. ionica Weidlich, 2016 (female length 6.0 to 7.2 mm, 2–3 antennal segments, 2 tarsal segments, larval case length 12.0–16.0 mm) (Weidlich 2016). The new species is diagnosed from the other two congeneric parthenogenetic species R. gertrudae and R. imielinella by the following characters: 194 · Zootaxa 4242 (1) © 2017 Magnolia Press LARYSZ FIGURE 1.

Adults—females of R. annae sp. nov. are smaller (length 3.0 to 4.2 mm, width 0.9 to 1.3 mm) than females of R. imielinella (length 3.0 to 5.2 mm, width 1.0 to 1.8 mm) (Malkiewicz et al. 2013) and larger than R. gertrudae (length 1.0 to 3.0 mm, width 1.0 to 1.5 mm) (Sieder 1962). The new species R. annae sp. nov. has antennae with three segments (Fig 4), while R. gertrudae only one reduced antennal segment (Sieder 1962), R. imielinella one or two (Malkiewicz et al. 2013). R. gertrudae has all the leg segments reduced, the femur and tibia are not separated, tarsal segments are absent, and the claw is invariably unpaired (Sieder 1962; Malkiewicz et al. 2013). R. imielinella has the femur and tibia distinctly separated, with one tarsal segment and all legs have paired claws (Malkiewicz et 196 · Zootaxa 4242 (1) © 2017 Magnolia Press LARYSZ al. 2013), while R. annae sp. nov. has all legs reduced, transparent, with one tarsal segment and paired brown claws. The hind femora have a cavity on the dorsal side (Fig 4, 6). The hind femora in R. gertrudae and R. imielinella without cavity. In the female genitalia of R. annae sp. nov. the accessory apophyses are very short and thin, about 0.2× the length of the posterior apophyses (Fig 7) (in R. imielinella accessory apophyses longer and thicker, about 0.4× the length of posterior apophyses). Pupae—R. annae sp. nov. has abdominal segments A4–8 dorsally with a smaller number of spines (A4 with 3– 4 spines, A5 with 16–23 spines, A6 with 18–22 spines, A7 with 15–21 spines, and A8 with 2 spines) (Fig 8) than R. imielinella (A4 with 10 spines, A5–A7 with 20–25 spines, A8 with 5–9 spines). The pupal head of the new species has antennae (as long as 0.5 mm), distinctly longer than the height of the eyes (Fig 9), while the pupal antennae of R. imielinella are shorter (0.3 mm), and reach usually the half of eye’s height (Malkiewicz et al. 2013).

Etymology. Reisseronia annae sp. nov. is dedicated to my beloved wife Anna. Distribution. Known only from Katowice (50° 15' 14"N 19° 04' 56"E), Upper Silesia, southern Poland. The altitude of the type locality is 270 m. Habitat. The habitat of R. annae sp. nov. is situated near the Katowice—Kraków road. It is an industrial habitat with a dry, ruderal meadow supporting mainly Achillea millefolium (L.), Hieracium pilosella L., Cardamine pratensis L., Taraxacum officinale F.H. Wigg., Poa annua L., Solidago sp., Verbascum sp., Calamagrostis sp. There are also xerophilic mosses and various grasses (Figs 14–15). Eight further psychid species were found at this site: Epichnopterix plumella (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775), Dahlica triquetrella (Hübner, 1813), Acanthopsyche atra (Linnaeus, 1767), Apterona helicoidella (Vallot, 1827), Sterrhopterix fusca (Haworth, 1809), Proutia betulina (Zeller, 1839), Psyche casta (Pallas, 1767) and Taleporia tubulosa (Retzius, 1783). Life history. The biology is similar to that of R. imielinella (Malkiewicz et al. 2013). After hibernation, the larvae in their cases appeared from March until June (the earliest finding was on 9th March, the latest on 3rd June). They were most abundant in mid-May. Most of the larvae were found climbing up the concrete fence on sunny days (Fig 16). A few cases with inactive larvae were found in early spring among low vegetation between mosses (Fig 15). A number of larvae were collected for breeding in captivity. The larvae accepted Taraxacum officinale F.H. Wigg. as a food plant. After having finished their growth, the larvae pupated on the walls of the breeding container, to which they had attached themselves with silken threads. Some larvae, in the last instar, left their bags and did not build a new one, and subsequently died. The pupal stage lasted about 10–16 days. Hatching of females was sometimes observed as they emerged from the cases, laying about 20–30 eggs in the pupal exuvia. No male hatched during the breeding. The young larvae hatched from the eggs after 20–25 days and built cases for themselves from the material of the mother’s case. Hibernation takes place during the mature larval stage. In the spring, these resumed feeding for a short time, after which they completed their development and pupated.
