Revision of Janeirona Distant, 1911 (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae: Ochlerini) with the description of four new species from Brazil.

Janeirona Distant, 1911 is a Neotropical pentatomid genus restricted to South America that was recently transferred from Pentatominae to Ochlerini (Discocephalinae). Janeirona was described for one species, and during the 20th century other five species were allocated in the genus. In this study we redescribe Janeirona and its known species, and propose two new synonyms: Serdia stali Kormilev, 1956 as junior synonym of Janeirona insignis Distant, 1911, and Janeirona asaroana Brailovsky, 1988 as junior synonym of Janeirona costalimai (Pirán, 1962).

They are linguistic infrastructure-biodiversity indices and dictionaries-that have been painstakingly built and maintained and that have enhanced regional and global participation in the study and enjoyment of birds. Inclusion of people has been a core objective in creating and maintaining these standardized lists, and dissatisfaction and desires to overwrite objectionable names have been associated with them for nearly two centuries.

In honour of Laurence Mound's 90th birthday, this special issue of Zootaxa serves as a tribute to his enduring legacy in entomology and Thysanoptera research. Mound's journey in the field has been marked by numerous discoveries, unwavering dedication, and invaluable collaborations that have profoundly influenced the study of Thysanoptera around the world. We here emphasise his lifelong commitment to the study of these minute insects and this provides an opportunity for researchers worldwide to share their insights and experiences, highlighting the impact Mound has had on their scientific pursuits.

Many subspecies described throughout the 20th century were recognised largely based on perceived variation in single morphological characters yet have since been found not to correspond to separately evolving population lineages, thus requiring synonymy or elevation to full species under lineage-based views of species. These modern lineage-based taxonomic resolutions have resulted from a combination of new molecular genetic techniques, improved geographical sampling of specimens, and more sophisticated analyses of morphological variation (e.
