Males of Asphondylia have gonostylus with a solid tooth, while in Bruggmanniella the tooth is completely divided mesally, resulting in two separate teeth. Pupae of Asphondylia have frontal spines and rows of dorsal abdominal spines, the distal ones being more strongly developed than the basal. Differing from them, pupae ofBruggmanniella do not have frontal spines. Furthermore, the dorsal abdominal spines are tiny and more numerous (Gagné, 1994).</p> <p>Garcia et al.(2022) proposed the following diagnosis ofBruggmanniella, based on a cladistic analysis:prothoracic larval spatula with 3 or 4-teeth, inner teeth (or tooth) larger than outer ones; pupa with antennal horns and well developed prothoracic spiracles; upper and frontal horns absent; pupal cephalic margin thickened; male genitalia with two-toothed gonostyli; parameres absent; cerci-like lobes on female abdominal segment VIII Tavares, 1909 (Garcia et al., 2022).</p> <p>Asphondylia maricensis has this set of female and pupa characters indicated by Gagné (1994) and Garcia et al. (2022). The male is still unknown. Therefore, the species is transferred to Bruggmanniella based on pupal morphology, and a new combination is proposed, Bruggmanniella maricensis (Maia et al., 1992). It is important to mention that the spatula of B. maricensis has four apical teeth, being the inner shorter than outer ones.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/A9029F33FFE8A36AFFA89D2DC705F8C5	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
