天牛科高级阶元分类研究进展

从比较形态学 ,特别是外生殖器形态研究和生物地理学等诸方面对天牛科高级阶元的分类研究进行了综述 ,并据此总结了当今关于天牛科高级阶元分类的几个观点 ,得出了以下几点结论 :( 1 )天牛科包括 :锯天牛、异天牛、幽天牛、椎天牛、锯花天牛、膜花天牛、花天牛、天牛、沟胫天牛共 9个亚科 ;( 2 )瘦天牛亚科 (Disteniinae)提升为瘦天牛科 (Disteniidae) ;( 3 )狭胸天牛、裸天牛、暗天牛和盾天牛 4个类群的分类位置还有待确定 ;( 4 )也正因为上述 4个类群的分类地位尚未确定 ,因而天牛总科的提法和天牛总科下分几个科的问题尚待进一步的讨论

Progress in classificaton of higher taxa of the Cerambycidae

The classification on the higher taxa of Cerambycidae based on comparative morphology,genital characters and biogeography is discussed.Four representative opinions are presented. (1) Cerambycidae includes nine subfamilies:Prioninae,Parandrinae,Aseminae,Spondylinae,Apatophyseinae,Necydalinae,Lepturinae,Cerambycinae and Lamiinae; (2) Disteniinae has been agreed by most scholars as a family:Distennidae; (3) the classification on Philus, Anoplodermatini, Vesperus, Oxypeltini require further investigation; (4) the proposal of the superfamily“Cerambycoidea” needs further discussion.
