M. almohadarum sp. nov. is a relatively variable species in term of body pattern, like other congeners. Body colour varies from brown to dark brown but it is never pale ochre or blackish, like M. mariaemathildae and M. inconspicuus respectively. Some specimens are characterized by a partial fusion or fading of the pronotal pattern (e.g. specimen depicted in Fig. 2). The markings on the clypeus are also relatively variable.

General colouring. Pale brown, with a dark brown pattern, ventral side of the body paler, with conspicuous dark markings (Fig. 7). Dorsal side of the head capsule with dark brown markings on the clypeo-labrum and a posterior V-shaped, fainted marking, lateral side with dark brown markings. Ventral side pale, with a pair of large dark brown spots (Fig. 7). Mandible pale brown. Some preserved Spanish larvae are characterized by the presence of a dark marking in the median section of the mandible. Legs pale brown, unspotted. Body chaetotaxy black. Head. Sub-rectangular, longer than wide. Ocular tubercle sessile. Mandible as long as the head capsule, provided with 3 equidistant teeth not abruptly differentiated in size.

Pantaleoni leg.,over 20 larvae, in alcohol [RAP] Derivatio nominis. The name of this new species is a noun in the genitive case, referring to the Almohad dynasty, which dominated North Africa and the south of the Iberian Peninsula between the 12th and 13th centuries. DNA taxonomy and phylogeny. The six putative species of the genus Myrmeleon, included in the analysed data set, were all supported by Bayesian posterior probabilities of 1.0 (Fig. 10). The Bayesian Poisson tree process algorithm applied on the Bayesian consensus tree also supported the existence of six species, reinforcing the morphology-based assumptions. The status of M. almohadarum as a new species was confirmed by a posterior probability of 0.97, given the input phylogeny and the bPTP model. The Bayesian phylogenetic analysis reconstructed M. almohadarum as sister to M. inconspicuus with a posterior probability of 1.0 (Fig. 10). Ecological notes and distribution. In Tunisia, the pit-building larvae of M. almohadarum were collected in old coastal sand dunes with tree vegetation, including pine plantations. In Spain, besides the above mentioned environments, this species was also found in river banks and dry ephemeral riverbeds, suggesting that this antlion shares the same habitat preferences with M. inconspicuus (Nicoli Aldini 2007; Gepp 2010; Pantaleoni et al. 2010; Badano & Pantaleoni 2014) but it is more thermophilous. M. almohadarum is presently known from relatively few localities in Spain, mostly in the southernmost part of the Iberian Peninsula (Andalusia: Huelva, Jaén, Cádiz, Málaga and Almería). An isolated record from the Balearic Islands (Ibiza) is also known (Fig. 9). At least some of the numerous records of M. inconspicuus from the Iberian Peninsula (see list in Monserrat & Acevedo 2013), especially from its southernmost part and/or the Balearic Islands, very likely belong to the new species. In North Africa, this antlion was collected in Tunisia, but it is probably widespread along the south-western Mediterranean coast, in areas influenced by the Mediterranean climate and avoiding desert environments. Comparative notes. The Myrmeleon inconspicuus -group of species, firstly delimited by Pantaleoni et al. (2010), includes the Turano-European M. inconspicuus, the Mediterranean M. mariaemathildae and the Asiatic-E- European M. immanis Walker. These species differ from other Palaearctic congeners in a set of adult characters: forewing Cubital fork more basal than Media posterior fork (Fig. 4), male hind wing with pilula axillaris and male genitalia with a large, lamellar mediuncus (Fig. 6). Moreover, the larvae of this species-group are characterized by the IX abdominal sternite with the anterior row of digging setae composed by at least 6 bristles (Badano & Pantaleoni 2014). M. almohadarum also fits within this species group, based on adult and larval morphology and the DNA-based phylogenetic reconstruction. The new species and M. immanis are easily distinguished by the unmistakable habitus of the latter (i.e. blackish body colour and yellowish, hyaline wings with pointed apex). M. inconspicuus is also darker than M. almohadarum and it is characterized by a blackish pronotum with a thin median line and an isolated pale spot per side (Fig. 3 C). On the other hand, M. mariaemathildae is a highly variable species, with distinct pale and dark morphs, though most specimens are pale ochre. The pronotum of M. mariaemathildae is usually characterized by large pale markings and paired dark areas, with a large median, pale stripe connected with a pair of posterior spots (Fig. 3 D), though in very dark specimens the pronotum closely resembles that of M. inconspicuus, see Pantaleoni et al. (2010) for further details. M. almohadarum is best distinguished from these closely related species due to the overall brown habitus and the dark brown pronotum with two pale markings per side connected to a median stripe (but see Variability). The new species is usually characterized by the Radius sector of forewing with about 5–7 transversal crossveins, therefore the cells of the Rs are few and comparatively long (Fig. 4 A). In other species (including the other members of the M. inconspicuus group) the Rs crossveins are usually 10 or more, thus the cells appear more numerous but shorter (Fig. 4 B, C). M. almohadarum closely resembles the African species M. caliginosus Hölzel & Ohm. The most obvious difference, besides genitalia, between these species is represented by the presence of pilula axillaris on male hind wing, always lacking in M. caliginosus. Moreover, M. caliginosus is overall darker, with pronotal spots well separated and not connected by a median line. The larva of M. almohadarum is very similar in body pattern and relative proportions to those of M. inconspicuus and M. mariaemathildae (see Badano & Pantaleoni 2014). The larva of the new species is characterized by the IX sternite with the anterior row of digging setae comprising numerous and irregularly arranged bristles, mostly of similar size (Fig. 8). M. inconspicuus has a lower number of setae on the anterior row, while M. mariaemathildae is recognizable due to its combination of large setae disorderly interspersed with smaller ones (Badano & Pantaleoni 2014).Published as part of Badano, Davide, Acevedo, Fernando, Pantaleoni, Roberto A. & Monserrat, Víctor J., 2016, Myrmeleon almohadarum sp. nov., from Spain and North Africa, with description of the larva (Neuroptera Myrmeleontidae), pp. 210-220 in Zootaxa 4196 (2) on pages 212-218, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4196.2.2, http://zenodo.org/record/16796
