摘要
Review of the Sididae of the Pacific Ocean islands revealed only three species (Diaphanosoma sarsi s. l., Latonopsis australis s.l., and L. brehmi) so far known from New Caledonia, Vanuatu (New Hebrides), Fiji, Guam Island, and Hawaii. Study of museum and other additional material made it possible to describe a new species, D. samoaensis, from West Samoa, the first record of an endemic sidid on a small ocean island. Its mode of speciation is discussed.
