Introduction

The tribe Manocoreini Hsiao, 1964 is a small group of Coreinae Leach, 1815, which only comprises the genus Manocoreus Hsiao, 1964, endemic to China (Li 1996). Hsiao (1964) described Manocoreus and four species from southern China as belonging to it: the type species M.vulgaris from Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangxi, and Zhejiang; M.marginatus from Yunnan; M.montanus from Sichuan; and M.yunnanensis from Yunnan. Ren (1983) provided brief notes on all four known species of Manocoreus and described M.astinus from Yunnan. Ren (1993) described M.grypidus from Hubei, while Liu and Ren (1993) described M.furcatus from Fujian. Up to now, the genus Manocoreus contains seven species, and all of which are only found in southern China.

Tribe Manocoreini was established based on characteristics of head and plica on abdominal sternite VII of female, and was considered as closely related to Dasynini Bergroth, 1913 and Gonocerini Mulsant & Rey, 1870 (Hsiao 1964). Li (1996, 1997) published the comparative morphological and cladistic analysis of Coreidae, his result supported Manocoreini as a taxon of tribal rank. Upon examination of Manocoreini collections from China, Manocoreus is reviewed, and a new species Manocoreushsiaoi sp. nov. is described from Guangxi province, China.

Materials and methods

External structures were examined by using a Zeiss Discovery V20 stereomicroscope. Measurements (in mm) were taken using Zeiss ZEN 2.5 pro software.

The male genital capsule and female abdomen were removed in dry condition and soaked in 75 °C, 10% KOH for 30 minutes to one hour to remove muscles. Endosoma was carefully stretched with a pair of forceps under a Zeiss Discovery V20 stereomicroscope. Photographs of habitus and detailed structures were taken by using a Canon EOS 7D Mark II camera equipped with a LAOWA 100 mm F2.8 macro 2× macro lens. Photographs of the genitalic structures were taken using a Canon EOS 7D Mark II camera equipped with a LAOWA 25 mm F2.8 macro 2.5–5× macro lens, or equipped with a tube lens and a Mitutoyo M Plan Apo 10× objective lens. Morphological terminology follows Hsiao (1964), Ren (1993), Brailovsky (2007a, b), Yi and Bu (2015), Zhou and Rédei (2020), and Pluot-Sigwalt and Moulet (2020).

Remarks.

This species can be recognized from all other species of Manocoreus by the following characteristics: humeral angles of pronotum rectangular or slightly acute (Fig. 13C); lateral side of head and thorax without black spots or stripes (Figs 8B, 9A–D); median ventroposterior process of genital capsule subtriangular in ventral view (Fig. 14G), lateral processes on posterior margin of genital capsule round in ventral view (Fig. 14G). Based on the examination of a series of specimens distributed from seven provinces of southern China, the morphological characteristics of Manocoreusvulgaris has a moderate degree of geographical variation in body size, coloration, and shape of spine of humeral angles, and all of them are considered in intraspecific range.

Discussion

According to the only cladistic analysis based on morphological data which included Manocoreini, Manocoreini was the sister group of Gonocerini (Li 1997). Based on our examinations of specimens of these two tribes, Manocoreini has the following characteristics that are significantly different from the latter: (1) head with a small dentate or plate-like process in front of antenniferous tubercles, whereas without such process in Gonocerini; (2) plica of female sternum VII with triangular, or rectangular depression, covered by sternum VI, whereas the posterior margin of plica depressed and near the anterior margin of sternum VII in Gonocerini; (3) genital capsule has median ventroposterior process, whereas the posterior margin of genital capsule concave in Gonocerini; (4) basiconjunctivum moderately sclerotized, whereas strongly sclerotized in Gonocerini. According to recent seminal research on the morphology of spermatheca in Coreidae (Pluot-Sigwalt and Moulet 2020), the spermatheca of coreids was divided into three types (I, II, III), and type III could be subdivided into four subtypes (A, B, C, D). Based on our study, the spermatheca of Manocoreini belongs to type III, subtype A, and is closely related to Dasynini, Gonocerini, and Homoeocerini. Some recent molecular phylogenetic studies show that Manocoreini is closely related to Dasynini, Homoeocerini, Mictini, and Coreini (Ye et al. 2022) or Gonocerini and Coreini (Tian et al. 2023). Although Manocoreini can be clearly distinguished morphologically, their phylogenetic relationship still needs to be further verified by adding more molecular and biological evidences.

In the genus Manocoreus, M.marginatus and M.yunnanensis are closer in morphology than other species, such as having slender antenna (Figs 7A, B, 8D–F), posterior margin of male sternum VII concave ~ 1/3 in ventral view (Fig. 13E, H), and middle of female sternum VII sharply concave, both sides with process backward (Fig. 14E, H). More morphological and molecular evidences are needed to figure out the phylogenetic relationship and phylogeographical pattern of the species in this genus.
