The new genus Echinobaetis is established for the new species E. phagas from Sulawesi. Echinobaetis is only known in the larval stage. Gut contents indicate predatory habits of the type species. A. W. M. Mol, Landstrekenlaan 21, 5235 LH 's-hertogenbosch, The Netherlands. During the Project Wallace Expedition to Sulawesi (formerly Celebes), (Indonesia), in 1985, Ephemeroptera were collected by Mr. J. van Tol (Leiden) in several localities situated in the northern, central and southern parts of the island. So far no Ephemeroptera have been recorded from Sulawesi. The material consists of more than 1500 specimens, mainly larvae, belonging to at least 25 species. Among these, a species belonging to a remarkable new genus of Baetidae is present, which is described below. Additional material of this taxon, collected on Sulawesi by Drs J. T. & D. A. Polhemus, was received from Dr. G. F. Edmunds Jr. (Utah). Echinobaetis gen. nov. (figs. 1-31) Larva. Head flattened, prognate and almost circular in dorsal view (figs. 1,2).

Fila caudalia yellowish white, segments in basal half with short conical spines along posterior margins, segments in distal half smooth; hairs along inner margins of cerci and lateral margins of filum terminale short, about 1.5-2.5 times the width of corresponding segments. Geographical variation. Specimens from the northern part of the island (Sulawesi Utara province) are somewhat smaller than specimens of other localities; the brown pigmentation is extended over larger parts of frons and epicranium (fig. 1), while pronotum and mesonotum (and the abdomen to a lesser extent) show clear contrasts in colour between the paler and darker parts. Specimens from central and southern Sulawesi (Sulawesi Tengah province and Sulawesi Selatan province resp.) are larger; frons and epicranium are almost or entirely yellowish white, while thorax and abdomen display little colour contrast and may be even almost unicolorous pale brown in some cases. No morphological differences could be found, however, and all populations studied are regarded to be conspecific. The distribution of both colour forms of E. phagas is very similar to the distribution of two subspecies of the dragonfly Diplacina militaris Ris (Van Tol, 1987). Imago and subimago. Unknown. Etymology. phagas (Greek for "glutton"), because of the predacious habits of the larvae.

MOL: ECHINOBAETIS 67 Ecology. Echinobaetis phagas feeds on larvae of other aquatic insects. Dissected guts of three nearly mature larvae contained remainings of at least 23 Ephemeroptera (21 Baetidae, mainly Pseudocloeon, and 2 Prosopistoma), 7 Diptera (mainly Simuliidae) and 1 trichopteron. Maximum prey size observed was approximately 3 mm. Larvae of Echinobaetis were obtained from small rivers and larger brooks, partly in open country, partly covered by canopy. Width of the streams varied between 10 and 50 m, depth between 0.10 and 0.50 m (locally up to 1 m). Measured values of physical factors were: Velocity 0.3-1 m/sec (locally up to 2 m/sec); temperature 23.1-25.2 C; conductivity 82-98 y&lcm and ph 7.1-7.4. The bottom substrate consisted of coarse sand, cobbles and larger boulders. Echinobaetis was found from about sea level up to 950 m. The larvae preferred sites with boulders and stones near the banks of the streams, whereas several other groups of Ephemeroptera, especially Heptageniidae and Prosopistomatidae, apparently preferred sites in the main current (Mr. J. van Tol, pers. comm.). Discussion. Echinobaetis is readily distinguished from other genera of Baetidae by the combination of an almost circular and flattened head with the frontal area considerably enlarged (figs. 1,2), conspicious triplets of dorsal spines on abdominal segments 1-8 (figs. 22, 23), claws with a very long single subapical seta (fig. 29) and the shape of mandibulae and maxillae (figs. 4-7,12-14), clearly adopted for predacious habits. The taxonomic position of Echinobaetis appears to be rather isolated. There is little evidence for a close relationship of the new genus with other genera of Baetidae. A comparison of Echinobaetis with other predacious genera (Muller-Liebenau, 1978; Mol, 1986) reveals that carnivorous habits must have developed independently in at least three different lineages within the Baetidae. There is some resemblance in the shape of the head between Echinobaetis and Jubabaetis Muller-Liebenau, 1980, described from the Philippine island Luzon (Muller-Liebenau, 1980). Both genera share an enlarged, protruded frontal area, covering the mouthparts entirely, and bearing a dense row of setae along the anterior margin. This curious feature is not present in any of the other known genera of Baetidae. Table 1, however, shows that other features of the two genera are different to such an extent that a close relationship is not very likely. The more detailed structure of the head itself is different as well. Among other families of Ephemeroptera larvae with flattened heads and anterior borders of setae are found as well, being an adaptation to the currents in which the animals live. The similarities between Echinobaetis and

68 ZOOLOGISCHE MEDEDELINGEN 63 (1989) Jubabaetis should probably be considered as the result of convergent evolution. Although Jubabaetis is very distinctive, the more or less quadrangular shape of the head, the straight single row of long setae along the posterior margin of the femora and especially the long ventral setae near the apex of the tarsus, indicate a possible relationship between this genus and oriental species of Pseudocloeon Klapalek, 1905 and Platybaetis Muller-Liebenau, 1980. Echinobaetis gen. nov. Frontal area ca 2/3 times as wide as largest width of head. Setae along anterior margin of head bristle-like and curved down. Genae prolonged below antennae. Antennae ca 1.5 times largest width of head; flagellum with ca 50 segments, joints in middle region more or less perpendicular to axis. Labrum laterally protruded, surface and margins covered with soft hairs only. Mandibulae with molars protruded, narrow and acute, bearing a small number of subapical setae. Maxillae with long apical teeth; longest tooth nearly 3/4 times lateral margin of galeolacinea. Glossa and paraglossa about 2.3 times longer than wide; apex of paraglossa rounded. Metanotum without hind wing pads, but posterior margin with 6-8 conical tubercles. Femur with a double row of long setae along posterior margin. Jubabaetis Muller-Liebenau, 1980 Frontal area as wide as largest width of head. Setae along anterior margin of head hair-like and curved upward. Genae not prolonged below antennae. Antennae about as long as largest width of head; flagellum with ca 30 segments; joints in middle region oblique (ca 30 ) to axis. Labrum with lateral margins convex but not considerably protruded, surface with traverse row of stout setae, lateral margins with compound setae. Mandibulae of normal shape (molar region wide, more or less straight and covered with numerous small teeth). Maxillae with longest apical tooth less than 1/3 times lateral margin of galeolacinea. Glossa and paraglossa about 1.5 times longer than wide; apex of paraglossa subtruncate. Metanotum with small hind wing pads, posterior margin smooth. Femur with a single straight row of long setae along posterior margin

MOL: ECHINOBAETIS 69 Tarsus with dorsal hairs less than 1/5 times the length of hairs on tibia; ventral setae short and of about the same length. Claws with a single long seta near apex. Abdominal terga 1-8 with three long spines each; two submedian spines near the posterior margin and one spine in the centre of the tergites. Filum terminale with more than 50 segments and ca 1/6-1/4 times as long as cerci. and a row of short stout setae parallel to it. Tarsus with dorsal hairs about 1/2 times the length of hairs on tibia; two ventral apical setae 8-10 times longer than other ventral setae. Claws without apical setae. Abdominal terga 1-9 each with a single median long spine at posterior margin. Filum terminale reduced to a single segment. Table 1.
