INTRODUCTION

Triphysa Zeller, 1758 (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae, Satyrinae, Coenonymphini) is a widely distributed genus of palaearctic Papilionoidea in South-East Europe and North and Central Asia.

The genus Triphysa Zeller, 1858 was synonymized to Coenonympha Hübner, 1819 by Kodandaramaiah et al. (2009) in the study targeted to phylogeny of the genus Coenonympha. In their second paper dealing with Coenonympha phylogeny, they followed this synonymisation (Kodandaramaiah et al., 2010). On the other hand, the synonymisation was rejected by many lepidopterists (V.V. Dubatolov, S.K. Korb, R.V.

Yakovlev, L.V. Bolshakov, M.A. Klepikov, P.Y. Gorbunov and many others in Russia; V.V. Tshikolovets, K.A. Efetov, A. Kocak, M. Kemal, G.C. Bozano, A. Hausmann and many others in West Europe etc.) due to two reasons: 1) no morphological structures have been studied and analyzed in cited works; 2) no methods to determine generic level differences using molecular phylogeny was present at the time of these papers' publication (now these methods are proposed (see for example: Talavera et al., 2012), but they are very questionable and should be confirmed by additional research.

As an answer to the cited papers, the research of morphology and molecular data in tribus Coenonymphini was published by S.K. Korb, L.V. Bolshakov, (2011a): in this paper showed that Triphysa is a separate genus, Coenonympha is a separate and monotypic genus, the rest of Coenonympha s.l. was transferred to another genus Chortobius [Dunning et Pickard], 1858, stated that Lyela Swinhoe 1908 is a separate genus as well and finally the authors described a new genus Disommata Korb et Bolshakov, 2011 with type species Coenonympha nolckeni Erschoff, 1874. We do not see any reasons to synonymize Triphysa to Coenonympha as it has huge and constant differences from all other genera of Coenonymphini and forms a monophyletic group in the phylogenetic tree.

In any point of view, genus Triphysa should be revised. The current work performs this purpose.

The first species of this genus was described by P. Pallas (1771) from the environs of Syzran (now a city in the Samara region, southeastern part of European Russia) as Papilio phryne Pallas, 1771. A bit later, apparently based on P. Pallas material from Siberia, the description of Papilio tircis Cramer, 1782 was published. Much later, in the middle part of the XIX century, the description of Triphysa dohrnii Zeller, 1858 was published. Unfortunately, the description of the latter taxon was published without illustration nor information about the collecting locality. Moreover, the type specimen of this taxon disappeared, and even its alleged place of origin remained unknown (Grum-Grshimailo, 1899; 1948); it was not found in BMNH along with most other P.C. Zeller types.

Then the description of T. nervosa Motschoulsky, 1866 from Japan was published. However, as we know, the representatives of this species do not inhabit Japan. O. Staudinger (1892: 208) doubted the correct type locality of T. nervosa: «Tr. Nervosa Motsch. von Japan, schon früher beschrieben, soll, wie mir bestimmt versichert wurde, diese Art sein; ich kann dies leider nicht nachsehen, aber der Name spricht allein schon dafür. Elwes meint, dass sie nie auf Japan gefunden sei, und Motschulsky Amur-und Japan-Lepidopteren öfters vermischt habe».

Most likely there was a mix-up of two parcels from Mrs. E.S. Gaschkewitsch who collected the material on Amur and in Japan, which served as the basis for two articles of Motschulsky (Dubatolov et al., 2010). These parcels were processed and the results of this processing were published simultaneously (Motschulsky, 1866;

te-

Motschoulsky, 1866). Later the following taxa of Triphysa were described: T.

albovenosa Erschoff, 1877 from Blagoveshchensk environs, T. phryne tscherskii Grum-Grshimailo, 1899 (1900) from North-Western and Central Yakutia, T. phryne striatula Elwes, 1899 from Korla (China, Xinjiang, eastern Tien Shan), T. phryne biocellata Staudinger, 1901 from Qinghai (Tibet, China), T. glacialis A.Bang-Haas, 1912 from Arasagun Gol (now: Argasyn Gol river, Eastern Sayan, Khubsugul Aimag of Mongolia), T. phryne gartoki O.Bang-Haas, 1927 from Gartok (now: Garyarsa, Northwest Tibet, China), T. phryne yonsaensis Im, 1988 from North Korea.

V. Lukhtanov, A. Lukhtanov (1994) found that in Siberia, according to the structure of the male genitalia, there are two species of this genus: T. phryne in the steppes of West Siberia, and T. dohrnii in the mountainous regions of West Siberia, East Siberia and Far East. Because the type locality of T. dohrnii remains undefined (Grumm-Grshimailo, 1889; 1890) and T. nervosa has incorrect type locality, Y. P. Korshunov, P. Y. Gorbunov (1995) proposed to use for the second Siberian species the name T. albovenosa. One year later Y.P. Korshunov (1996) described T. albovenosa sacha Korshunov, 1996 from the vicinity of Yakutsk.

The last short review of this genus was published by G.C. Bozano (2002); he did an overview of Triphysa with implausible maps of areas and some geographical errors; also he followed V. Lukhtanov, A. Lukhtanov (1994) that the correct name for the second Siberian species is T. dohrnii. In recent years we accumulated a lot of new data, revised some private and museum collections and the major part of type material belonging to this genus; this is the basis of the current paper.

It is very important to note that most of the known Triphysa populations are local, and there is no clinal variability between them because there are no intermediate populations present. The transitions between subspecies exist only in East Asia between Baykal, Yakutia and the Upper Amur. It is a good basis for active speciation and the reason for a big number of subspecies. Also it is important to note that most Triphysa species forms subspecies in pairs, plain and mountainous; these subspecies have different phenology and are well separated by flight periods, and distributional altitudes.

Diagnosis of the genus

Medium size butterflies, forewing length 17.0 - 23.0 mm. Wings in males dark, brown or grey; wings in females white. Upperside with characteristic light suffusion along veins. Black spots with white centers present at least in forewing upperside in males; in underside these spots are always present in both wings. In the male genitalia tegumen is domed, uncus longer than tegumen, apex of uncus rounded. Valva wide, apex of valva pointed. Aedeagus longer than valva, with characteristic large spikes on its apical part. In the female genitalia the signum shorter than 1/4 of bursa copulatrix (in Coenonympha s.l. and Lyela it is about 1/2 of its length). From all genera of Coenonymphini Triphysa differs by the following features:

• In female genitalia signum shorter than 1/4 of bursa copulatrix;

• In male genitalia aedeagus with spikes in its apex;

• In male genitalia valva is wide (width/length = 2/1);

• Tegumen domed;

• Gnathos 2 times or less shorter than uncus;

• Males and females have opposite wing coloration (males dark, brown or grey, females light, white);

• Upperside of wings with characteristic light suffusion along the veins.

Systematic notes. Papilio phryne Pallas described from "Volgae versus Sysranum". Its type locality corrected by S. Sachkov (1991) - Kostychy village in the town Oktyabrsky environs, Samara Prov., Russia.

Papilio tircis Cramer described from a female specimen from Siberia, the text description is unclear but has two pictures: upper side and very schematized underside (Fig. 7). However, the most obvious characteristic features in these pictures are well visible: postdiscal spots are almost equal in size, eyespots always with white centers and surrounded by narrow yellowish borders. These features are identical to the habitus of Triphysa phryne Pall. Type material of this species was collected most likely by P.S. Pallas somewhere from Omsk region to Western Altai, no other material known from this region of Russia at this time.

Triphysa dohrnii Zeller was described from South Russia and its status was unclear. The main feature for this taxon is a rather wide pale edge on wings upperside, but comparable in width to the border on the underside. We can

te-

conclude that the upperside fringe is actually not very wide. In comparison to T.

dohrnii and T. tircis, it is not specifically indicated if there is a difference in the presence or absence of white centers in eyespots. But because in T. tircis the bright centers in eyespots are well developed (almost certainly), the same should be present in T. dohrnii too, or it would have been indicated otherwise. Another important feature, suggesting the position of T. dohrnii as a synonym of T. phryne, is the presence of a rather complex pattern located basally from the postdiscal band. This pattern is very unclearly described in the original description. On the other hand, weak whitish veins on the hindwings underside, which usually are in T. phryne. Among the Siberian populations of Triphysa (excluding the West Siberian Plain, where only T. phryne occurs) the white centers of postdiscal eyespots are only in specimens from the steppes of southern Transbaikal, but in these specimens there are always two large cubital eyespots on the forewing underside. This characteristic feature would necessarily be mentioned by P.C. Zeller, if his T. dohrnii had originated from Transbaikal. That is why we take the point of view that P.C. Zeller described an aberrant specimen of T. phryne. The type locality mentioned in the original description is South Russia (not any areas of Siberia!). Basically, during the first half of the XIX century, P.C. Zeller could have had Siberian specimens of a species other than phryne only from two potential areas and collectors: Altai Mountains (from F.A. Gebler) or Southern Transbaikal (from G.I. Fischer von Waldheim). Specimens from these areas must have a light border on the upperside wings, but the Altai specimens are always without white centers in the postdiscal eyespots on the underside, and the South-Transbaikalian specimens are always with huge cubital eyespots on the upperside of the forewing. That is why we cannot consider T. dohrnii identical to any Siberian specimens. The lightening of the pattern along the outer margin in South Russian males T. phryne, though very rarely, but occurs; it is also one of the arguments for the species identity of T. phryne and dohrnii.

H.C. Lang (1884: 814) listed T. dohrnii as an aberration with light underside that flies together with typical individuals. Thus once more the European origin of T. dohrnii type specimens and its use for light specimens of T. phryne was considered.

G. Grumm-Grshimailo (1899; 1948) indicated that the type material of T. dohrnii was lost; it was not found in BMNH (see above). It is impossible to understand the status and position of almost all taxa of Tryphysa without the neotype designation of T. dohrnii. Therefore, we make a decision to designate the lightest T. phryne specimen as the neotype of T. dohrnii. The neotype male, designated here: collected in Russia, Low Volga, Volgograd distr., Sarepta, 611 (ZISP).

Diagnosis. The characteristic feature in the male genitalia is a very short gnathos. Apex of valva in nominotypical and closely related subspecies is curved dorsally and sharpened. 20 specimens have been dissected.

Type material. The type material of T. phryne may be lost, but in the literature there is no reference about this. V. Zolotukhin (pers. comm.) suggests qute a high

probablity that P. Pallas type specimens could be preserved in Kunstkamera Museum (St.-Petersburg, Russia), but access to the repository of this museum is prohibited.

T. phryne was erroneously recorded from Central Mongolia (Igarashi et al., 2001); the figured specimen is an aberrative male of T. nervosa glacialis.

Triphysa phryne kasikoporana Dubatolov, Korb et Yakovlev, ssp. n.

Figs. 1m-p, 6a, 21.

Description. Male. Forewing length 18-19 mm, wings dark-brown with pale yellow border, in some specimens the cubital area of forewing with light and hardly detectable strokes. Forewing underside dark, veins are light, all postdiscal spots with white centers. Postdiscal spots are on a background of bright lines. Underside of hindwing with postdiscal spots with white centers. White strokes in postdiscal area extended almost to the discal cell. Veins on hindwing underside are white. Female. Forewing length 18-20 mm. Upperside light yellow, underside pattern as in male, postdiscal spots with white centers, postdiscal light strokes are present.

Diagnosis. Postdiscal spots in males are on a background of bright lines developed much better than in Triphysa phryne phryne. A good difference in males of the new subspecies from the nominotypical one is in the white strokes in postdiscal area (extended almost to the discal cell). Postdiscal light strokes in females developed better than in the nominotypical subspecies

Triphysa striatula Elwes, 1899, stat. nov.

Triphysa striatula striatula Elwes, 1899

Figs. 1q-z, 6a, 22.

Triphysa phryne striatula Elwes, 1899; Trans. Entomol. Soc. London 1899: 365. Type locality: Kuruktagh near Korla [East Tian-Shan, Xinjiang, China]. "Lastly, there is a form found in the Kuruktagh near Korla, var. Striatula, Stgr. (MSS.), which is distinguished by pale longitudinal striations on the fore-wing of the male. This form seems by the position of the spots to belong to phryne rather than to dohrnii" (Elwes, 1899).

Description. Forewing length 17-18 mm. Upperside with light strokes between veins. Underside with expanded light pattern (in comparison to T. phryne). White centers of postdiscal spots can be absent on both forewing and hindwing undersides. In addition to the white lines on the upperside, the eyespot between cubital veins on the forewing underside is somewhat larger than its neighbors.

Male genitalia. Aedeagus densely covered by teeth with caudally directed apex. Valva with much prolonged distal end and pointed obliquely truncated apex. Four specimens have been dissected.

Triphysa striatula urumtshiensis Dubatolov, Korb et Yakovlev, ssp. n.

Figs. 2a-b, 6a, 23.

Description. Male. Forewing length 20-21 mm, wings dark-brown. Eyespots of the postdiscal row on hindwing underside are almost equal in size and very small. Very wide light suffusion along the veins is present, especially in the central cell (almost touching the internal stroke); strong overall expansion of light pattern is present. Postdiscal row of eyespots in forewing underside with band between cubital and other eyespots, cubital eyespots are slightly larger. Female. Forewing length 18-20 mm. Upperside white or whitish, underside pattern as in male.

Diagnosis. Slightly larger than nominotypical subspecies. There is no lightening on upperside like in Triphysa striatula striatula.

Material examined. Holotype, male, Urumtchi (ZISP). Paratypes: 2 males, 1 female, Turkestan, Urumtchi, Ruckbeil, 1904 (MHUB); 1 male, Kazakhstan, Boro-Khoro Mts., 35 km N of Dzharkent, Sarybel environs, 1600-2000 m, 30-VI-2010, leg. S.K. Korb (SKNN); 1 male, 1 female, Kuldscha, VII-1902 (ZSSM); 1 male, Urumtchi (ZISP).

Distribution. China: Xinjiang Prov. (Urumqi environs); Kazakhstan: eastern part of Boro-Khoro Mts.; very local. The isolation border between T. striatula striatula and T. striatula urumtshiensis ssp.n. is in high-mountainous glaciers of Boro-Khoro and Sarmin-Ula mountain ridges.

Triphysa issykkulica Dubatolov, Korb & Yakovlev sp.n.

Figs. 2c-h, 6a, 9, 24.

Description. Male. Forewing length in holotype 16 mm, in paratypes 14-17 mm. Upperside brown. Fringes gray or brownish. Underside brown, with white-greyish suffusion along the veins; forewing under surface with incomplete submarginal row of black round spots with white centers (no spot in anal region of this wing is present); hindwing underside with full submarginal row of black spots with white centers; each spot in submarginal series is located in yellowish oval elongated stroke. Discal cell of hindwing underside with yellowish short stroke. Female. Forewing length 12-15 mm. Wing upperside, fringes and abdomen are white, submarginal pattern of underside is visible. Underside grayish-brown, veins bright, white, and on the under surface of forewing is located an incomplete submarginal row of black rounded spots with white centers (no spot in anal region of this wing is present); on the hindwing underside the full submarginal row of black spots with white centers is present. Each spot in submarginal row is located inside of yellowish oval stroke, in some specimens these strokes form an almost full band.

Male genitalia. Tegumen helmet-like with long transverse fold from apex to base. Uncus long, with wide, rounded obtuse apex and broad base of trapezoidal

shape. Gnathos short, massive, semi-circular. Valva long, with wide base and narrow pointed apex. Ventral part of valva is wrapped. Saccus elongated, narrow, cylindrical, with smoothly rounded apex. Aedeagus massive, long (longer than valva), tapering to apex. Middle section of aedeagus is covered by small teeth, apex has large strongly sclerotized teeth. Five specimens dissected.

Diagnosis: From all other species of the genus, this one is well distinguished by the strongly sclerotized teeth on the apex of aedeagus (in other species it is not present) and by the shape of valva (especially its caudal part) and tegumen. The good external difference between the new species and others is in the antenna apex color: in the new species it is always light, yellow, or with very small dark top, whereas in other species it can be completely dark or at least half dark.

Distribution. Russia: Chita reg. (Sokhondo Mts., Udokan Range, Argun river lower course) (Dubatolov & Gordeev, 2002), Amur Prov., Khabarovsk Prov. (Kurentsov, 1970; Mutin, 1992; Koshkin et al., 2007), Ussuri Prov. (Martynenko, 2000), Western, Southern and North-Eastern Yakutia (Herz, 1903a, 1903b; Kajmuk et al., 2005), Magadan reg. (Takahashi & Oshima, 2005), W. Chukotka (Markovo, Bilibino); North Korea; and in NE China (Nikitin, 1945; Tuzov, 1995). The isolated population of Triphysa nervosa recorded by P.Y. Gorbunov (1992) from the Malaya Sos'va nature reserve (NW Siberia, Khanty-Mansi Autonome District, Russia) and from the environs of Taezhnyi village (on the border between Khanty-Mansi Autonome District and Sverdlovsk reg., Russia). Another isolated population is known from the Sokhondo mountains in south-western part of Chita Prov.; this population is surrounded by other subspecies occuring in mountain hollows.

Triphysa nervosa tuvinica Dubatolov, Korb et Yakovlev, ssp. n.

Figs. 3a-h, 6a, 12, 26.

Description. Male. Forewing length 19-20 mm, wings are dark with light and bright wide border and fringes. On the hindwing upperside, the discal cell is highlighted on veins by thin light stripes. Forewing underside with cubital spots much larger than other postdiscal spots (very different size). Hindwing upperside has well pronounced spots of almost equal size. The light pattern on wings' upperside is well developed. Female. Forewing length 20 mm, wings' upperside light yellow, light pattern on the wings' underside well developed, wings with "colourful" appearance.

Diagnosis. This subspecies is much larger than ssp. glacialis O.B.-H. and other related subspecies. White edging on the wings' upperside is rather wide. Discal cell on hindwing highlighted by thin light stripes. Apical bordering of the central cell in the wings often delineated by bright color. Cubital eyespots on the forewing underside are much larger than the others, all postdiscal spots are without white centers. Light bordering of veins is very clear. Upperside pattern is very mottled.

Triphysa nervosa arturi Dubatolov, Korb & Yakovlev, ssp. n.

Figs. 3i-p, 6a, 13, 27.

Description. Male. Forewing length 15-16 mm. Wings dark with white fringes and wide light border along the marginal and costal (fore wing) borders. Central cell with white veins. Underside with greatly reduced postdiscal spots. Female. Forewing length 15-16 mm. Upperside white. Underside with strongly reduced eyespots. Forewing underside in its angle with expressed lighting.

Diagnosis. This new subspecies (as far as kobdoensis) is an intermediate taxon between the groups glacialis and biocellata. Specimen are very small, males with wide white bordering on the wing upperside (the bordering often extends to the costal area), in the central cell white veins are visible (as in the previous subspecies, which is larger and with larger postdiscal eyespots). Postdiscal eyespots on the underside are reduced, but the quite large cubital spots on the forewings can remain; they are always without white centers. Underside always with contrasting bright veins. Female has brightening on the forewing underside in the anal angle.

Etymology. New subspecies named after Artur Yakovlev, son of the third author, who helped to collect a part of the type series.

Triphysa nervosa brinikhi Dubatolov, Korb et Yakovlev, ssp. n.

Figs. 5a-d, 6a, 17, 31.

Description. Male. Forewing length 18-19 mm. Forewing relatively wide with rounded apex. Wing upperside dark-brown with thin (about 0.5 mm) and bright fringes. The entire area of wings covered by suffusion of light scales. Eyespots on wings' underside are very small, on the forewing they are slightly centered by white color; on hindwing underside these eyespots are mostly reduced. Wings' underside with well visible suffusion of light scales. Central part of hindwing underside with fuzzy yellow pattern of wide strokes between veins, which are highlighted by wide dull white strokes. Female. Forewing length 17-18 mm, wings white or white-yellowish, the wings pattern is same as in the male.

Diagnosis. It differs from T. nervosa nervosa, the closely related subspecies, by the following features: postdiscal spots are almost always visible (though much reduced); cubital spots on the forewing underside are slightly larger than the other spots, in females the spots are not visible on the upper surface; white edging on the

te-

wings' upperside is very narrow; white veins on the underside are expressed very

well, but the drawing is not mottled; on both wings' surfaces a strong suffusion of light scales is expressed.

Etymology. New subspecies named after V. Brinikh, a well known Russian ecologist.
