View through CrossRef
The genus Platypygus Loew, 1844 in Iran is reviewed. Platypygus kurdorum Paramonov and P. melinoproctus Loew are redescribed and a new species, Platypygus titanomedea sp. nov., is described and illustrated. A diagnostic key to species of Platypygus and Cyrtisiopsis in Iran is provided and variability of some characters in genus Platypygus is briefly discussed. As a result of this study, Platypygus maculiventris Loew is transferred to the genus Cyrtisiopsis Séguy.
