This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Machado, Renato Jose Pires, Morelli, Enrique, Heleodoro, Raphael Aquino, Silva, Vitor Cezar Pacheco Da (2025): First record of the insect order Mecoptera (Hexapoda) from Uruguay. Zootaxa 5665 (4): 577-582, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5665.4.6, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5665.4.6
Abstract
We report the first record of the insect order Mecoptera from Uruguay. A total of 31 specimens of Bittacus brasiliensis Klug, 1836 (Bittacidae), from six different departments in the country were herein studied. It provided a better understand of the species, allowing us to firstly describe a sexual dimorphism related to the maxillary palp, and endorsed a discussion about a close related species from Argentina, B. zelichi Williner. This is by far the largest known series of B. brasiliensis, and represents the southernmost records of the species.
