TL;DR: Saito et al. as discussed by the authors described a new subspecies of T. sekii sisyphus ssp. nov., and the latter species comprises the first record of the genus Drupadia in China.
Abstract: Background The family Lycaenidae is the second-largest group of butterflies which contains about one third of the known species of Papilionoidea. The genera Tajuria Moore, [1881] and Drupadia Moore, 1884 are both mainly found in the Oriental and Australian realms. In a very recent expedition to south-west China in Xishuangbanna (Yunnan Province), specimens of T. sekii Saito, 2005 and D. scaeva (Hewitson, 1869) were collected for the first time, a new subspecies of the former: T. sekii sisyphus ssp. nov., is described and illustrated and the latter species comprises the first record of the genus Drupadia in China. New information A new subspecies of T. sekii Saito, 2005, T. sekii sisyphus ssp. nov., is described and illustrated. The species T. sekii Saito, 2005 and D. scaeva (Hewitson, 1869) are first recorded in China and the latter comprises the first record of the genus Drupadia in China. Relevant details are presented for the species.

TL;DR: The genus Paragus (single representative of the tribe Paragini) was resolved as sister group of the monophyletic Scaeva-Eupeodes lineage and the genus Pseudodoros was resolved, corroborating the generic rank of Ischiodon, Simosyrphus, Dioprosopa, and PseUDodoros.
Abstract: Contributing authors: Gunilla St ahls (gunilla. stahls@helsinki.fi); Pavel L aska (Deceased@Deceased.cz); Libor Maz anek (syrphidae@centrum.cz); Santos Rojo (santos. rojo@ua.es) Abstract Phylogenetic relationships among the genera and subgenera of the Scaeva-Eupeodes clade (Diptera: Syrphidae: Syrphinae) were analyzed based on molecular characters. Sequence data from three gene regions were analyzed using maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference: the mitochondrial protein-coding gene cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and the nuclear 28S and 18S ribosomal RNA genes. The genus Paragus (single representative of the tribe Paragini) was resolved as sister group of the monophyletic Scaeva-Eupeodes lineage. Inside this clade, a Neotropical radiation of genera was well supported comprising Notosyrphus, Austroscaeva gen. nov., and Dioprosopa. For the first time, the placement of Doros, Pseudodoros, and Betasyrphus was inferred using molecular data. Our results resolved the genus Pseudodoros as sister group of Ischiodon, corroborating the generic rank of Ischiodon, Simosyrphus, Dioprosopa, and Pseudodoros. The current subgeneric division of Eupeodes with three subgenera is not supported by our data. Present results and the study of adult morphological characters prompted us to erect a new genus, Austroscaeva gen. nov., which includes four Neotropical species, that is, Austroscaeva melanostoma (Macquart, 1842) comb. nov., Austroscaeva occidentalis (Shannon, 1927) comb. nov., Austroscaeva patagoniensis (Kassebeer, 1999) comb. nov., and Austroscaeva penai (Marnef in Du sek & L aska, 1985) comb. nov. We described and characterized Austroscaeva gen. nov., and provided the description of the male of Scaeva patagoniensis (=Austroscaeva patagoniensis) and Scaeva penai (=Austroscaeva penai), as well as an illustrated identification key for the Austroscaeva species. Moreover, we explained and stated that the correct name for Syrphus lunatus Wiedemann, 1830 is Scaeva opimia (Walker, 1852).
