All originate from the highlands of Ethiopia, namely the Bale Mountains and adjacent volcanoes in Oromia State. Species of the new subfamily are characterized by dense body cover with pointed tubercles causing a hedgehog appearance of the body (dorsal side, partly ventral side), extreme sexual dimorphism in pedipalps (in males thread-like long and thin surpassing body length by about four to six times, devoid of apophyses and thorns; in females short and stout about body length, with a distal \u201cgrasping hand\u201d formed by apophyses and strong setae of tibia and tarsus, and tarsal claw). Male genital morphology is characterized by a hemolymph-pressure system of truncus penis and glans, a dorsal sub-distal tube-like glans with an inner prickly funnel, which is everted by hemolymph pressure during courtship. These male genital characters place the present species in Assamiidae, but external morphology points to a strongly different separate evolutionary unit within this family. The five species known to date were secured at altitudes between 2830 and 4100 m. At least two of the collecting areas are now devoid of forest due to human impact. To secure the present specimens at high-altitude localities was possible only by searching in remote microhabitats unavailable for cattle and man-made fire. A perspective on current subfamilies of Assamiidae and on pedipalpal morphology and evolution is presented.\r\n\u00a0<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.11646\/zootaxa.5159.2.3","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,29]],"date-time":"2022-06-29T00:47:18Z","timestamp":1656463638000},"page":"72-95","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["From the Ethiopian Bale Mountains hotspot\u2014Filopalpinae subfam. nov., a new taxon of Laniatorean harvestmen based on external and genital morphology (Arachnida, Opiliones, Assamiidae)"],"prefix":"10.11646","volume":"5159","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6863-8148","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"JOCHEN","family":"MARTENS","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"4913","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"125124","unstructured":"

La famille des Assamiidae S\u00f8rensen, 1884, au sein du sous-ordre des Laniatores Thorell, 1876, des Opilions, reste peu \u00e9tudi\u00e9e, des difficult\u00e9s subsistant li\u00e9es \u00e0 une syst\u00e9matique bas\u00e9e sur la typologie et \u00e0 un \u00e9chantillonnage limit\u00e9, en particulier en Afrique subsaharienne. La r\u00e9cente d\u00e9couverte des Filopalpinae Martens, 2022, une nouvelle sous-famille, a mis en \u00e9vidence la richesse sous-explor\u00e9e de l'\u00c9thiopie. Dans cette \u00e9tude, nous d\u00e9crivons un nouveau genre et une nouvelle esp\u00e8ce, Assamhoplites martensis n. gen., n. sp., du nord-ouest des landes d'altitude \u00e9thiopiennes, ajoutant ainsi une pi\u00e8ce cruciale \u00e0 la compr\u00e9hension de la diversit\u00e9 des opilions de la r\u00e9gion. Nos r\u00e9sultats r\u00e9v\u00e8lent la distribution unique des Filopalpinae dans l'\u00e9cor\u00e9gion des hauts plateaux \u00e9thiopiens, un point chaud de la biodiversit\u00e9. Les hautes altitudes, l'humidit\u00e9 et le climat temp\u00e9r\u00e9 de cette r\u00e9gion en font un refuge id\u00e9al pour les opilions. Cette d\u00e9couverte incite \u00e0 approfondir les recherches pour d\u00e9terminer si les Filopalpinae repr\u00e9sentent des reliques d'altitude ou une lign\u00e9e plus largement r\u00e9pandue. Le dimorphisme sexuel dans la morphologie du p\u00e9dipalpe, observ\u00e9 non seulement chez Assamhoplites martensis n. gen., n. sp. mais aussi chez des esp\u00e8ces apparent\u00e9es, soul\u00e8ve des questions intrigantes sur la signification \u00e9volutive de ces modifications extr\u00eames. L'\u00e9tude souligne l'importance de prendre en compte \u00e0 la fois les facteurs morphologiques et biog\u00e9ographiques dans les classifications taxonomiques, illustr\u00e9e par la cr\u00e9ation du genre monotypique Assamhoplites n. gen. sur la base de diff\u00e9rences dans la morphologie des p\u00e9dipalpes et dans la distribution. Les hauts plateaux du nord-ouest de l'\u00c9thiopie, s\u00e9par\u00e9s par la vall\u00e9e du Grand Rift, constituent possiblement une barri\u00e8re biog\u00e9ographique susceptible d'influencer la diversification de ces opilions. Cette \u00e9tude offre apporte des informations sur les processus \u00e9volutifs complexes qui fa\u00e7onnent la diversit\u00e9 unique de la faune des hauts plateaux \u00e9thiopiens.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5252\/zoosystema2024v46a22","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,25]],"date-time":"2024-09-25T10:59:47Z","timestamp":1727261987000},"page":"577-587","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["African highland harvestman: New genus and new species of Filopalpinae Martens, 2022 (Opiliones, Assamiidae) from Wonchi crater, Oromia province, Ethiopia"],"prefix":"10.5252","volume":"46","author":[{"given":"Willians","family":"Porto","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Divisi\u00f3n de Aracnolog\u00eda, Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales-CONICET, Avenida \u00c1ngel Gallardo 470, C1405DJR Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Secci\u00f3n Aracnolog\u00eda y Miriapodolog\u00eda, Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Panagiotis","family":"Kontos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Zoologisches Institut und Museum, Universit\u00e4t Greifswald, Domstra\u00dfe 11, 17489 Greifswald (Germany)"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abel","family":"P\u00e9rez-Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Divisi\u00f3n de Aracnolog\u00eda, Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales \u2013 CONICET, Avenida \u00c1ngel Gallardo 470, C1405DJR Buenos Aires (Argentina)"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3209","reference":[{"key":"14","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"A.
