Panca fiedleri (Carneiro, O. Mielke & Casagrande, 2015) , new combination

Genomic sequencing of the holotype of Ginungagapus fiedleri Carneiro, O. Mielke & Casagrande, 2015 (type locality in Brazil: Paraná) ( Fig. 6 View FIGURE 6 maroon) reveals that it is not monophyletic with Ginungagapus Carneiro, O. Mielke & Casagrande, 2015 (type species Euroto schmithi E. Bell, 1930 ) and instead is sister to Panca steinhauseri (Dolibaina & A. Warren, 2015) (type locality in Ecuador) within Panca Evans, 1955 (type species Lerodea subpunctuli Hayward, 1934 ) ( Fig. 6 View FIGURE 6 violet). In a morphological phylogeny, Ginungagapus and Artines Godman, 1901 (type species Thracides aepitus Geyer, 1832 ) were recovered as sisters ( Carneiro et al. 2015). At that time, however, Artines trogon Evans, 1955 and Artines fosca Evans, 1955 were selected as representatives of Artines , two species currently in Panca ( Medeiros et al. 2020) and Eutocus (combination proposed below), respectively. In this analysis G. fiedleri was the first linage to diverge within Ginungagapus , being sister of a clade with all remaining species in the genus. In fact, G. fiedleri shares several morphological similarities in male and female genitalia with species in Panca , suggesting close affinity, which is here corroborated by the genome. Therefore, we propose Panca fiedleri (Carneiro, O. Mielke & Casagrande, 2015) , comb. nov.

FIGURE 6. Nuclear genome tree of selected Moncina: Psoralis and Artines relatives. See Fig. 4 for notations. Note extreme heterogeneity of evolutionary rates in different lineages, compared to mostly homogenous rates in Fig. 4 tree. Some genera are labeled at their clades. Taxa discussed in the text are shown in different colors: Mucia (blue, with Mucia rusta, comb. nov. labeled in dark blue), Rhomba (cyan, with Rhomba mirnae, comb. nov. labeled in purple), Eprius (green, with Eprius planus, comb. nov. and Eprius obrepta, stat. nov. labeled in orange and olive, respectively), Panca (violet, with Panca fiedleri, comb. nov. labeled in brown), Eutocus (red, with Eutocus brasilia, comb. nov. and Eutocus fosca, comb. nov. labeled in magenta), and Lattus (gray, with Lattus minor, comb. nov. labeled in dark green). Green arrows point from the clade of the genus where a species was placed previously (name in square brackets) to the clade of the species that is being transferred between genera.
