| Описание плана выполнения исследований | The project provides a taxonomic review of the Afrotropical Catantopine grasshopper genus Pteropera, describe three species new to science and provide the first molecular data of the genus. Given the lack of certain taxonomic data and the unavailability of molecular data of the genus Pteropera, there was a great need to shed light on the taxonomic status of grasshopper species belonging to this genus through an integrative approach, including morphometrics, morphology and molecular analysis. The project also presents an updated the identification key to species, maps of the distribution of all known species, the first phylogenetic tree for the genus. |

Методы сбора
Field surveys were conducted from June 2017 to April 2022 at various locations situated in the central(Ongot), eastern (Somalomo, Dja) and littoral (Sohock, Koukoué, Iboti) regions of Cameroon. The grasshopper samples were collected using sweep nets and hand catches.
| Охват исследования | The samples considered in the project were collected in several African Rainforest countries including Angola, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Congo-Brazzaville, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Equatorial Guinea, Fernando Poo and Gabon. |
|---|---|
| Контроль качества | Collected samples were identified using the identification keys. In addition, type specimens held in the Muséum Nationale d´Histoire Naturelle Paris, France (MNHN) and the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin, Germany (MfN) were examined and the distributional data were recorded. Fresh samples were stored in absolute ethanol for further DNA analysis. They are kept as vouchers in the entomological collection at the Staatliches Museum für Naturkunde Karlsruhe, Germany (SMNK). |
Описание этапа методики:
- Distributional data were obtained from geographical coordinates recorded during field observations and from locality records taken from specimen labels in the Zoologisches Museum Hamburg (ZMH) and the Muséum National d´Histoire Naturelle Paris (MNHN) collections. The distribution maps of all the species were generated via QGIS 3.28.3 ´´Firenze´´ (2023).
