981CAA6F2C4715217EC84BE48FE8FE62.taxon	description	At least eight undescribed species of the genus Eurycorypha are present in the Congo River Basin; in the present paper, I am only listing them with a number beside them, as a complex revision of the genus is underway with Claudia Hemp and the current number of species (approx. 50) will be significantly increased. We therefore defer the description of the new central African species to the revision in progress.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae. Zootaxa 5331 (1): 1-67, DOI: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5331.1.1, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5331.1.1
981CAA6F2C4715267EC84AC48D4BF834.taxon	description	According to Cadeña-Castaneda (2015) the tribe Plangiopsidini is diagnosed based on the following characters: face oval, eyes subcircular, pronotal disc flat and with small denticulations on lateral carina, lateral lobes compact, curving progressively to the humeral sinus, tegmen lanceolate, fore coxae armed with a spine, tympanic organs exposed in the exterior side and conchate in the interior side, meso- and metasternum with lateral lobes rounded or acuminate, tenth tergite without modification, male cerci simple and armed with apical spine. Females with ovipositor as long as a third of the length of the hind femora, curving sharply upwards, valves with crenulate margins, upper valve with cuticular invaginations from the base to the apex (variable character). Among these characters, only small denticulations on the lateral carina are absent in some species (e. g., Plangiopsis adeps), thus we could remove this character from those belonging to the tribe. Presently only the genera Plangiopsis Karsch, 1889 (Figs. 5 a – 5 d) and Plangiola Bolívar, 1906 (Fig. 6 d) are listed within the tribe Plangiopsidini. Plangiola is a little different, having eyes more elongate than in the species of Plangiopsis. Another character that has not been previously considered is the shape of the fastigium of the vertex, which is a little raised, with a rather wide space between the antennae, different from the tribe Holochlorini Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878, where the fastigium of the vertex is raised, narrow, and the space between the antennae is very small (e. g., genera Holochlora, Arantia, Dapanera, etc.) (Figs. 7 a – 7 d). The fastigium of the vertex in the species of the tribe Plangiopsidini shows clearly two lateral dimples, not so evident in the species belonging to the tribe Holochlorini (Figs. 5 a – 5 d, 6 a – 6 d, 7 a – 7 d). When Sj ̂ stedt (1902) described the genus Bongeia (type species: B. puncticollis from Cameroon), he wrote that it is most closely related to the genus Tapeina Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878. Because the genus Tapeina Lepeletier & Audinet-Serville in Latreille, 1828 already existed for a neotropical Cerambycidae, Bolívar (1906) renamed it as Tapiena and described Tapiena minor from Ghana (West Africa), the only African species for this genus. The genus Tapiena is an east Asian-Indonesian genus belonging to the tribe Holochlorini, with only one African species; actually the genus is heterogeneous, but the fastigium of the type species, T. acutangula (Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878), is narrow, like in the other Holochlorini. The African species, T. minor, recently again recorded from Ghana by Naskrecki (2008), differs in this character from T. acutangula, with its fastigium wide between the antennae (Fig. 6 c), much like that of other genera included in the tribe Plangiopsidini. This difference leaves little doubt that Tapiena minor does not actually belong to the tribe Holochlorini, but instead to the tribe Plangiopsidini, with which it shares the other characters of the tribe. Consequently, T. minor does not belong to the genus Tapiena, but to an undescribed genus, described below as Afrotapiena n. gen. Therefore, the genus Tapiena is definitively excluded from Africa, distributed only in east Asia and Indonesia. Concerning the genus Bongeia (type species B. puncticollis; see Fig. 6 a), it was placed within Psyrae (presently tribe Holochlorini), like Tapiena, but also in this case the fastigium, as well as other characters, are more similar to those of the other genera included in the tribe Plangiopsidini. Furthermore, the genus Itokiia Sj ̂ stedt, 1902 (type species: I. silvarum Sj ̂ stedt, 1902; see Fig. 6 d), was also included within Psyrae (Holochlorini), but its characters, including the fastigium of the vertex, suggests it also belongs to the tribe Plangiopsidini. Thus, the characters of the tribe Plangiopsidini Cadeña-Castaneda, 2015 should be: face oval, eyes subcircular, rounded or elongate, anterior margin of pronotum incurved, posterior margin rounded, pronotal disc flat with or without small denticulations on lateral carina, lateral lobes compact, curving progressively to the humeral sinus, higher than long or as high as long, tegmen lanceolate, second pair of wings longer than tegmina, speculum on right tegmen present or absent, fore coxae armed with a spine, conchate tympana in inner side, open in the outer side, tenth tergite without modification, male cerci simple with or without apical spine, styli present. Ovipositor gently upcurved or curving sharply upwards. The following genera therefore are considered to belong to the tribe Plangiopsidini: Plangiopsis (four species: P. semiconchata Karsch, 1889, P. foraminata Karsch, 1892, P. adeps Karsch, 1896, P. nouabalensis n. sp.), Plangiola (only one species: P. herbacea), Bongeia (two species: B. puncticollis, B. brevicauda Ebner, 1943), Itokiia (only one species: I. silvarum) and Afrotapiena n. gen. (only one species: A. minor) (see Figs. 5 a – 5 d, 6 a – 6 d, 8 a – 8 d, 9 a – 9 c, 10 a – 10 f, 11 a – 11 f).	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

Compared to the other species, the fastigium of the vertex is clearly wider in P. semiconchata. The shape of the tegmina of P. nouabalensis n. sp. is more similar to that of P. adeps than to the other species (Figs. 8 a, 8 d, 10 a, 10 c). The carinae of the pronotum of P. nouabalensis n. sp. are not denticulate as in P. semiconchata (Figs. 10 a, 10 b, 11 a, 11 b) and in Plangiola herbacea (Fig. 10 e), but are more similar to those of P. foraminata (Fig. 11 c). The stridulatory area of P. nouabalensis n. sp. (Fig. 11 a) is more similar to those of P. semiconchata (Fig. 11 b) and P. adeps (Fig. 11 d) than to that of P. foraminata (Fig. 11 c), the stridulatory file of P. nouabalensis n. sp. (Fig. 12 a) is very different from those of P. foraminata (Fig. 12 b) and P. semiconchata (Fig. 12 c) and more similar to that of P. adeps (Fig. 12 d).

Considering the affinities between Bongeia puncticollis (Figs. 6 a, 9 a, 10 d, 11 e) and Itokiia silvarum (Figs. 6 d, 9 b, 11 f), the first described from the female and the second the male sex, it is possible that the latter belongs to the same genus as the former, but more material of both taxa is necessary. Griffini (1908) described the male of Bongeia puncticollis and the female of Itokiia silvarum, respectively, and found both to be very similar.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

981CAA6F2C5A153D7EC84CBF8D0CF86B.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The subgenus Euarantia was established by Heller et al. (2014) on the base of the width of the tegmina being greater than 12 mm and the hind tibiae curved; however, A. rectifolia Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878, considered to belong to the subgenus Euarantia, has the hind tibiae curved but the width of the tegmina is variable in size, sometimes being shorter than 12 mm, often mixing with A. marginata Massa, 2021 (belonging to the subgenus Arantia) from which the morphological separation may be difficult (however, the shape of male cerci and stridulatory file allow for the distinction). In the group of A. rectifolia morphological differences generally are small, but the shape of the stridulatory file and the number of teeth, as well as the male cerci tip, allowed Hemp & Massa (2017) to describe Arantia tanzanica (ca. 80 – 85 teeth; Figs. 15 a, 15 b), found in Zimbabwe, Mozambique, South Africa, Swaziland and Zambia (Massa 2022 a). Massa (2021 b) highlighted the difficulty in identifying Arantia rectifolia from A. marginata and a possible third species which is sometimes mixed between them, recognizable only by its stridulatory file (ca. 85 teeth, like in A. tanzanica while in A. marginata there are ca. 65 teeth, and in A. rectifolia ca. 45 – 50). Fig. 15 reports five stridulatory files and cerci of the respective specimens from Tanzania (Arantia tanzanica) (Figs. 15 a, 15 b), Côte d’Ivoire (Arantia aff. tanzanica) (Figs. 15 c, 15 d), Gabon (Arantia marginata) (Figs. 15 e, 15 f), Central African Republic (Arantia rectifolia) (Figs. 15 g, 15 h) and Côte d’Ivoire (Arantia aff. rectifolia) (Figs. 15 k, 15 i; this specimen, due to the width of the tegmina being shorter than 12 mm was considered as being Arantia aff. marginata by Massa 2021 b). It is possible that the specimens of Figs. 15 g, 15 h, 15 k, 15 i represent two species belonging to the rectifolia - group. A biomolecular analysis probably could answer this question, but the actual knowledge of taxonomy of this group of Arantia allows A. rectifolia, as well as A. tanzanica, to be moved from the subgenus Euarantia Heller, 2014 to the subgenus Arantia Stål, 1874; thus, their nomenclature should be changed as follows: Arantia (Arantia) rectifolia Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878, and Arantia (Arantia) tanzanica Hemp & Massa, 2017.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

981CAA6F2C5615307EC84BAC8DC3FE39.taxon	description	The genus has been revised by Ragge (1962); later Massa (2013) described three further species and presently nine species are known; while all the species have been exhaustively described, only a very shortly description was provided for P. turbatum (Walker, 1869), its holotype being badly preserved and impossible to separate from other species. For this reason, Ragge (1964) proposed that it be considered as a nomen dubium, suspecting that some species subsequently described could be synonymous. Thus, in the present paper this species is not considered. Table 1 lists all the known species of the genus Phlaurocentrum plus another two previously undescribed, one from the Republic of Congo and another from Côte d’Ivoire. P. morettoi Massa, 2013 is here considered synonymous with P. lobatum Ragge, 1962.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

981CAA6F2C5115347EC84D0D8D25F853.taxon	discussion	Remarks. When Massa (2013) described P. morettoi the peculiar character of the tenth abdominal tergite was not compared with that of P. lobatum; they are flat and very similar, in particular the slight indentation of the cerci apically. Also the apex of the tenth tergite has a slight apical indentation, not recorded or even drawn by Ragge (1962). The types of P. lobatum were collected in the Congo River Basin, like those of P. morettoi; thus, it is here proposed the following synonymy: Phlaurocentrum morettoi Massa, 2013 junior synonym of Phlaurocentrum lobatum Ragge, 1962.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

Actually, the fastigium of the vertex of Myllocentrum is not as compressed as in Phlaurocentrum Karsch, 1889, Buettneria Karsch, 1889 and Leiodontocercus Chopard, 1954, the legs are clearly shorter, and the last tergite of both sexes is unmodified. For similar reasons Ragge (1962) excluded its affinity with Enochletica Karsch, 1896 and consequently Myllocentrum was not included in the tribe Preussini Karsch, 1890. Considering the peculiarity of the two species belonging to the genus Myllocentrum [M. stigmosum (Karsch, 1896) and M. raggei Massa, 2013] (Figs. 23 a, 23 b), a distinct tribe is proposed for this genus, Myllocentrini new tribe.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

981CAA6F2C68150D7EC84D088D18FDAD.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis of the new Tribe Myllocentrini. Medium sized, fastigium of vertex narrow, a little raised, pointed and furrowed, as large as first antennal segment, face large and short (Fig. 23 c). Eyes round, prominent, scapus placed within an area with raised margins. Pronotum flat and smooth, nearly as long as high, moderately compressed, with lateral margins and well-developed humeral excision, lateral lobes rounded on hind and lower margins. Legs short and slender; fore coxae armed, fore femora inferiorly sulcate. Tympana conchate on inner side, open on outer side. Dorsal margin of fore tibiae furrowed. Tegmina well developed, slightly shorter than hind wings. Mirror absent. Fairly exclusive is the presence of conspicuous, prominent and regularly placed small bristles on 6 – 7 veinlets in the anal area of the right female tegmen (Figs. 23 d, 23 e), certainly involved during the female reply to male song. Medial field with crossed veinlets, two apically divided branches radiate from radial vein. 10 th tergite unmodified, subgenital plate a little concave, provided with short styli. Cerci stout and incurved. Females with ovipositor much reduced, apically pointed (Fig. 24 a). Black spots on the tegmina and black markings on the body characterize the two species of the genus Myllocentrum (Figs. 23 a, 23 b).	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae. Zootaxa 5331 (1): 1-67, DOI: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5331.1.1, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5331.1.1
981CAA6F2C68150D7EC84D088D18FDAD.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Ragge (1962) already highlighted the presence of veinlets in the anal area on the right female tegmen certainly used to produce sounds. Analogous structures have been found in most females of Phaneropterinae (Heller et al. 2015) and a similar acoustic system has been noticed on the female right tegmen of the genus Arantia (tribe Holochlorini) (Hemp & Massa 2017). In addition, females belonging to the tribe Phlaurocentrini have these structures, but unlike Myllocentrum, they are placed rather irregularly on the right tegmen, not on parallel veinlets (Figs. 23 f, 23 g). There is also an important morphological difference in the ovipositor shape between the new tribe Myllocentrini and that of Phlaurocentrini; species belonging to the new tribe Myllocentrini have an ovipositor of normal shape, but reduced in size. Both valves, ventral and dorsal are flattened laterally, directed upwards and are parallel (Fig. 24 a), while in Phlaurocentrini the valves of the ovipositor are not flattened laterally, the 10 th abdominal tergite of the female is hood-like and conceals the supra-anal plate; the ovipositor is much reduced and with smooth and short valves. Ventral valves of Phlaurocentrini are short, directed upwards and apically pointed, dorsal valves longer than ventral ones, straight like two short fingers (Figs. 24 b, 24 c, 24 d). This has also ecological implications; the species belonging to the new tribe Myllocentrini, like the other Phaneropterinae, lay flat eggs between the layers of the leaf epidermis, while those belonging to the tribe Phlaurocentrini lay round and thick eggs between cracks of tree bark (Massa 2020).	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

981CAA6F2C6415007EC84AC58D82F8C4.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Following the key provided by Chopard (1954), among the species with open tympana lacking the spine on the fore coxae Pseudoeurycorypha civilettorum n. sp. results in being recovered near the genus Bueacola Sj ̂ stedt, 1912, which contains only one species (B. cornigera from Cameroon). However, Pseudoeurycorypha civilettorum n. sp. has very peculiar pronotal and frontogenal carinae and elongate eyes similar to those of the species of the genus Eurycorypha. Presently it seems difficult to establish the tribe to which the genera Bueacola and Pseudoeurycorypha may belong, but very likely they are related to Amblycoryphini, despite the absence of the spine on the fore coxae.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

Tetraconcha maculosa n. sp. could belong to the species of the group of T. smaragdina Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1891, even if generally they are greenish in colour. It is the seventeenth species found in tropical Africa, and it is characterized by its black spots on the stridulatory area of the tegmina. The most similar species is T. fusca Massa, 2021 (type locality: Gabon, Mikongo, Rougier, Mts de Cristal), which, however, is smaller, lacks the black spots on the stridulatory area and has a different stridulatory file (it is composed of ca. 25 evenly spaced teeth followed by a dozen teeth separated by a bulge with 2 – 3 raised teeth) (cf. Massa 2021 a).	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

Tetraconcha laszloi n. sp. is with pleasure dedicated to Gyula László (ANHRT), who participated on some expeditions in tropical Africa, collecting interesting species of Orthoptera. Affinities. Tetraconcha laszloi n. sp., the eighteenth species of the genus, should belong to the group of T. smaragdina Brunner con Wattenwyl, 1891, the differences from related species lying in the stridulatory file and stridulatory area. They are highlighted in Table 2 and Fig. 31.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.

981CAA6F2C78151D7EC84A1D8F11FD02.taxon	discussion	Remarks on the genus Tetraconcha The genus Tetraconcha Karsch, 1890 was revised by Massa (2017), with another species described more recently (Massa 2021 a). This genus has evolved less in morphological characters, but more in the acoustic signals. Indeed, the best way to identify the species belonging to this genus is to observe the shape and number of teeth of the stridulatory file under the left tegmen. This enabled the discovery that in central-western tropical Africa presently eighteen species live, some of them syntopically. Certainly, it is the different songs produced by the stridulatory apparatus that allows the separation of the species. A possible process of sympatric (more than allopatric) speciation likely occurred among the populations of Tetraconcha, originated from ecological specialization or simply sound differentiation. The Sangha Trinational Protected Area proved to be the region with the greatest diversity of species in this genus, probably due to the variety of vertically distributed microhabitats in the primary forests. It is likely that more unknown species of this genus will be discovered in the future, which have so far gone unnoticed due in part to the difficulty of identifying differential diagnostic characters. To contribute to a better knowledge of the genus, Table 2 shows some measurements of the stridulatory file and stridulatory area, and Fig. 31 the stridulatory files of the most related species, mainly belonging to the smaragdina group.	en	Massa, Bruno (2023): Biodiversity hotspot in the Sangha Trinational Protected Area revealed through Orthoptera Tettigoniidae.
