摘要:

为及时掌握中国脊椎动物在2024年的新发现情况, 本文汇总了2024年文献报道的脊椎动物新物种、新记录种、恢复有效的物种、亚种提升为种的基本信息。结果表明, 2024年中国脊椎动物新分类单元133个, 隶属于16目47科87属, 包括97新种、1新亚种、24新记录种、7亚种提升为种级、4种的有效性得以恢复。其中鱼类有4目13科24属40种; 两栖类3目7科16属30种(25新种、5新记录种); 爬行类2目13科29属43种(28新种、1新亚种、10新记录种、恢复4种); 鸟类3目8科9属10种(6亚种提升为种级、4新记录种); 哺乳类4目6科9属10种(4新种、5新记录种、1亚种提升为种级)。在新分类单元中, 变温脊椎动物有113个, 占总数的85%; 鱼类多为鲤形目(28/40)、两栖类多为无尾目(26/30)、爬行类多为有鳞目(39/43)、鸟类多为雀形目(8/10), 而哺乳类多为劳亚食虫目(5/10)。本次新分类单元分布记录涉及中国的全部34个省域, 有115个仅记录于1个省域; 云南有46个、广西25个、西藏18个、广东18个、福建13个、台湾12个, 贵州11个, 其余省域在9个或以下。有111个新分类单元发表时应用了分子系统学研究结果。有126个发表于28份学术期刊上, 其中15个发表于中国学术机构主办的4份英文期刊, 9个发表于3份中文期刊。本研究可为脊椎动物的分类和保护等相关工作提供基础信息; 此外, 也提示变温脊椎动物可能是中国以后脊椎动物物种多样性调查研究的热点类群, 整合分类方法是未来分类工作的重要支撑。

Abstract

Aim: To collate and report on new vertebrate taxa in China published in 2024.

Method: This paper summarizes the basic information about new vertebrate taxa in China from the academic literature published in 2024.

Results: In 2024, 133 new vertebrate taxa were recognized in China, including 97 new species, 24 new record species, and 7 subspecies elevated to species rank, in addition, 1 new subspecies was described, and 4 species were reinstated as valid. These taxa belong to 16 orders, 47 families, and 87 genera. Among them, there are 40 new species of fish; 30 species of amphibian, including 25 new species and 5 new record species; 43 species of reptile, including 28 new species and 10 new record species in China, in addition, plus 1 new subspecies and 4 reinstated valid species; 10 species of bird, including 6 subspecies elevated to species rank and 4 new record species; 10 species of mammal, including 4 new species, 5 new record species, and 1 subspecies elevated to species rank. Ectothermic vertebrates account 85% of new discoveries; most representative orders were Cypriniformes (28/40) for fish, Anura (26/30) for amphibians, Squamata (39/43) for reptiles, Passeriformes (8/10) for birds, and Eulipotyphla (5/10) for mammals. These 133 new vertebrate taxa were recorded across 34 provincial-level regions. Most species (115) were found in only one region, while Yunnan, Guangxi, Xizang, Guangdong, and Fujian were the top five regions, with 46, 25, 18, 18, and 13 species recorded, respectively. A total of 111 of these discovered taxa have been supported by molecular systematics. Most findings (126 taxa) were published in 28 academic journals, with 15 of which were published in 4 English journals and 9 of which were published in 3 Chinese journals in China.

Conclusion: This article provides essential baseline data for the classification and conservation of vertebrates in China. In addition, it highlights that ectothermic vertebrates are a major focus of current diversity research, and underscores the importance of an integrated taxonomic approach for future studies.
