Four novel species of subgenus Russula crown clade collected from northwestern China are described based on morphological and phylogenetic evidence. Morphologically, R. griseorosea Y.Song sp. nov. (subsection Puellarinae) is characterized by its brown pileus with a grayish pink tint, basidiospores with warts often connected by fine lines, orthochromatic pileipellis with long terminal cells and septate pileocystidia; R. micangshanensis Y.Song sp. nov. (subsection Olivaceinae) is diagnosed by its large basidia, hymenial cystidia and basidiospores, and spore ornamentations with unequal crests and often twinned warts, which give the spore distinctive appearance; R. minirosea Y.Song sp. nov. (subsection Laricinae) has very small basidiocarp with pileus less than 3.3 cm in diameter, basidiospores with fine reticulum, small basidia, and septate pileocystidia; R. purpureomarginalis F.Li & Y.Song sp. nov. (subsection Xerampelinae) has large basidiospores with often isolated ornamentations, slim basidia and often septate flexuous pileocystidia. Differences between the four novel species and their closely related taxa were analyzed. Phylogenetic analyses based on both ITS and multi-locus (LSU, rpb2 and tef1) were carried out to confirm the distinct taxonomic status of the four novel species.
A new pygmy unicorn genus, Brazitettix Silva, new genus, and two new species, Brazitettix roraimae Silva, new species and Brazitettix paulista Silva, new species (Orthoptera: Caelifera: Tetrigidae) are described in Brazil. This new genus is a unique tetrigid taxon in the American continent due a notched-long and elevated head projection. The morphology of this taxon resembles Rostella Hancock, 1913 and Dravidacris Bhaskar and Kasalo, 2022 that are currently comprised into Cleostratini, an artificial group that contains biogeographic distant taxa with distinct morphological head projection.

Amphiphala Roberts and Sabourin, new genus (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), is proposed for three new species: A. liatriana Roberts and Sabourin, new species; A. landryana Brown, new species; and A. carolana Sabourin, new species. The genus is recorded from the eastern part of North America from Ontario, Canada south to South Carolina, and west to Manitoba and Mississippi. Owing to its superficial similarity to the banded sunflower moth, Cochylichroa hospes (Walsingham, 1884), Amphiphala remained hidden in North American Lepidoptera collections. Amphiphala liatriana has been reared from northern blazing star, Liatris scariosa (L.) Willd. (Asteraceae), in Maine.

The flat wasp genus Megaprosternum (Scleroderminae) is studied and revised. Fifteen species are recognized, including five previously described ones: M. cleonarovorum, M. longiceps, M. neolongiceps, M. norfolcensis, and M. pentagonal. Additionally, 10 new species are described and illustrated: M. aka sp. nov. and M. bayaka sp. nov. (both from the Central African Rep.), M. chamorro sp. nov., M. hmong sp. nov., M. kariri sp. nov., M. kayin sp. nov., M. navatu sp. nov., M. nuaulu sp. nov., M. samburu sp. nov., and M. wakawaka sp. nov. An emended diagnosis and a detailed discussion regarding the morphological diagnostic characters of this genus and its species, along with comments about the distribution pattern of Megaprosternum, are also presented. Additionally, a taxonomic key for males and females of all species is provided.
The genus Elmomorphus Sharp, 1888 is redescribed based on morphological characters. Elmomorphus bryanti Hinton, 1935, E. montanus (Grouvelle, 1913), E. prosternalis Hinton, 1935, and E. striatellus Delève, 1968 are redescribed based on type material. Elmomorphus nepalensis Satô, 1981 is redescribed based on material collected in the vicinity of the type locality. Eighteen species of Elmomorphus were known so far world-wide, and only five species have been recorded from the study area (India, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, China, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam). In the present revision, 45 new species are described: E. auratus sp. nov. (China), E. auripilosus sp. nov. (Vietnam), E. bispinosus sp. nov. (China), E. calvus sp. nov. (China, Vietnam), E. catenatus sp. nov. (China), E. comosiclunis sp. nov. (China), E. corpulentus sp. nov. (China), E. cuneatus sp. nov. (Thailand), E. curvipes sp. nov. (China, Vietnam), E. dentipes Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam), E. depressus sp. nov. (China), E. donatus Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (China, Vietnam), E. ellipticus sp. nov. (China), E. elmoides sp. nov. (Vietnam), E. fusiformis sp. nov. (China), E. glabriclunis sp. nov. (China), E. globosus sp. nov. (China), E. hamatus sp. nov. (China), E. hongkong sp. nov. (China), E. horaki Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (Cambodia, Myanmar, Thailand), E. jendeki Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (Vietnam), E. jii sp. nov. (China), E. longitarsis sp. nov. (Thailand), E. mazzoldii sp. nov. (Thailand), E. minutus sp. nov. (China), E. oblongus sp. nov. (Vietnam), E. ovalis Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (China), E. parabrevicornis sp. nov. (China), E. paradonatus Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (China), E. paramontanus Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (China, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam), E. parvulus sp. nov. (Thailand), E. punctulatus sp. nov. (China), E. reticulatus sp. nov. (China), E. sausai Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (Vietnam), E. schillhammeri sp. nov. (China), E. schoenmanni sp. nov. (China), E. siamensis Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam), E. similis sp. nov. (China, Laos, Vietnam), E. simplex sp. nov. (China), E. simplipes sp. nov. (Vietnam), E. superficialis sp. nov. (China), E. sulcatus sp. nov. (China), E. umphangicus Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (Thailand), E. vietnamensis sp. nov. (Vietnam), and E. yunnanensis Kodada, Selnekovič & Jäch sp. nov. (China). The genus Elmomorphus is recorded for the first time from Bhutan, Cambodia, Myanmar, and Laos. In China (31 spp. from Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hainan, Hong Kong, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Yunnan, Zhejiang) and Vietnam (16 spp.), this genus is especially diverse.
Three new species of Onitis Fabricius, 1798 are described: Onitis bhomorensis sp. nov. from Assam (Northeast India), O. kethai sp. nov. and O. visthara sp. nov. from Karnataka (South India). Onitis bordati Cambefort, 1988 is recorded for the first time for the Indian subcontinent, from Meghalaya, India. Thus, the number of species of Onitis from the subcontinent has been raised to 20 and that of the Oriental region to 26. Illustrated identification keys to all the species of the genus Onitis from the Indian subcontinent are provided with distributional details and maps. Lectotype and paralectotypes designated for Onitis philemon Fabricius, 1801. Descriptions are provided for aedeagus of seventeen species of Onitis, as well as images of type specimens for nine species from their respective repositories. Distribution maps are provided for the species of Onitis of the Indian subcontinent.
Crickets (Order Orthoptera, Infraorder Gryllidea) are under-represented in New Zealand, with a total of eight species identified and formally described thus far. These include three endemic species in the family Trigonidiidae: the trig Trigonidium (Metioche) maoricum (Walker, 1869) and the ground crickets Bobilla nigrova (Swan, 1972) and B. bigelowi (Swan, 1972). Scaly crickets (family Mogoplistidae) are naturally absent in New Zealand, but one species, Ornebius aperta Otte & Alexander, 1983, has established after introduction from Australia in the 1970s. In this work, I re-examine the small crickets (families Trigonidiidae and Mogoplistidae) from New Zealand based on 368 specimens collected throughout the country, their morphology, and their song. In the subfamily Nemobiinae, I provide new diagnostic characters to discriminate between the two native species in the genus Bobilla Otte & Alexander, 1983. Additionally, I identify two species in the genus Pteronemobius Jacobson, 1904; these are P. truncatus (Saussure, 1877) and P. cf. arima Otte & Alexander, 1983, both of which are believed to be recent arrivals from Australia. The latter had been thus far undetected in New Zealand. Finally, I describe two new species of mute Nemobiinae belonging to new monotypic genera, Austronemobius chelatus gen. et sp. nov. and Mutonemobius marmoratus gen. et sp. nov. In the subfamily Trigonidiinae, the species Trigonidium (Metioche) maoricum is moved back to the subgenus Trigonidium (Trigonidium) Rambur, 1838 based on morphology. Amended descriptions are provided for this genus and species. The Australian species Trigonidomorpha sjostedti Chopard, 1925 is synonymised with Trigonidium australianum (Chopard, 1925), and the genus Trigonidomorpha Chopard, 1925 is synonymised with Trigonidium Rambur, 1838. In the family Mogoplistidae, I show that Ornebius aperta has established in the Auckland, Waikato, Taranaki and Coromandel regions. Based on song and morphology of the male terminalia, populations in Northland may belong to a separate species, referred to in this work as Ornebius aff. aperta Otte & Alexander, 1983.
A documented checklist of the Crustacea (Stomatopoda, Decapoda) is provided for the southern Guianas region (sGuianas), a homogeneous ecoregion including Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana and the Brazilian State of Amapá. The history of crustacean collections undertaken there between 1759 and 2022 is summarized. In total, 529 species are listed. Biodiversity varies between countries: 165 species in Guyana; 317 in Suriname, 343 in French Guiana, and 315 in Brazil Amapá, as a direct result of different sampling efforts. There are 22 Stomatopoda and 507 Decapoda, ranked by numerical diversity as Brachyura (206), Caridea (113), Anomura (85), Dendrobranchiata (67) and others (36). The list is analyzed with the species classified by major biotopes, distinguishing those from freshwater, mangroves and estuaries, and frankly marine environments. Regional comparisons are made in the Western Atlantic showing that the sGuianas marine fauna is depauperate compared to that of other regions. This is explained by the influence of the Amazon River plume, carrying desalinated water and fine sediments, which leads to the reduction of coral reef formations in sGuianas. Only a few species of freshwater crabs (genera Kunziana and Microthelphusa) are endemic to the region. The pace of species discovery over the years indicates that the sGuianas fauna remains still imperfectly known and that probably more than 600 species are present in the region.
New taxa and new records of Winnertziinae and Porricondylinae (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) from Germany
(2024)
Winnertziinae and Porricondylinae are two subfamilies of mycophagous Cecidomyiidae (gall midges). An earlier census in 2021 found the German fauna of both groups to comprise 53 species and 28 genera – only a small proportion of the nearly 400 species and 75 genera known from all of Europe. A 24-month inventory in 2021‒2023, whose most significant taxonomic and faunistic outcomes are presented here, yielded evidence of an additional 142 species and 24 genera present in Germany, more precisely 41 species and three genera of Winnertziinae, and 101 species and 21 genera of Porricondylinae. Included in these numbers are 30 new species (six Winnertziinae, 24 Porricondylinae) and one new genus (of Porricondylinae) described and named here. The number of potentially new species discovered during the project is considerably larger (85+), but the too poor condition of the specimens and various other circumstances do not permit their taxonomic description at this stage. New taxa named in the present paper are Johnsonomyia szadziewskii sp. nov., Rhipidoxylomyia bilobata sp. nov., Winnertzia haushoferorum sp. nov., Winnertzia incrassata sp. nov., Winnertzia macrodens sp. nov., Winnertzia subdentata sp. nov., all Winnertziinae, Asynapta doczkali sp. nov., Asynapta falcata sp. nov., Bryocrypta longissima sp. nov., Camptomyia serrata sp. nov., Cassidoides rainensis sp. nov., Cassidoides riparius sp. nov., Claspettomyia gracilostylus sp. nov., Claspettomyia parvidentata sp. nov., Divellepidosis bavarica sp. nov., Lamellepidosis luderbuschensis sp. nov., Neurepidosis hartschimmelhofensis sp. nov., Neurepidosis simplex sp. nov., Parepidosis lobata sp. nov., Porricondyla acutistylata sp. nov., Porricondyla insolita sp. nov., Porricondyla oblonga sp. nov., Porricondyla ornata sp. nov., Porricondyla pilosoides sp. nov., Porricondyla plana sp. nov., Porricondyla pumila sp. nov., Schistoneurus paraimpressus sp. nov., Schistoneurus subimpressus sp. nov., Spungisomyia germanica sp. nov., Wohllebenia gen. nov., and Wohllebenia hybrida gen. et sp. nov., all Porricondylinae. Taxonomic descriptions are based on both the morphology of males and, if available, CO1 (DNA barcode) sequences, using specimens collected by Malaise traps in Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg, the two southernmost federal states of Germany. Released here are 150 BINs new to BOLD as well as 145 species names for previously unidentified BINs in BOLD. Redescriptions of male morphology are provided for Camptomyia heterobia Mamaev, 1961, Claspettomyia carpatica Mamaev, 1998, Dicerura scirpicola Kieffer, 1898, and Winnertzia betulicola Mamaev, 1963. The state of knowledge of Germany’s fauna of mycophagous gall midges is discussed.
