Contrastingly, A. sergioluzi sp. nov. has a small fork at the apex of gonostylus, and cercus broad basally with rounded tip. Females of the three new species are very similar (as are other females in this group), and it is probably not possible to distinguish them using the morphological features described. With the addition of the three new species described here, there are now known 15 Neotropical species of Atrichopogon with pigmented wings.We describe a new species of the genus Subdoluseps Freitas, Datta-Roy, Karanth, Grismer Siler from a coastal area in southern Vietnam. Subdoluseps vietnamensis sp. nov. is characterized by the following morphological characters medium size in adults (snout-vent length up to 48.7 mm); tail length/snout-vent length ratio 1.04; toes not reaching finger when limbs adpressed; 27-30 midbody scale rows, smooth; 55-57 paravertebral scales; 55-62 ventral scale rows; 64-74 subcaudal scales; frontoparietal scale single; four supraoculars; prefrontals not in contact with one another; two loreal scales; seven supralabials; ear-opening with two lobules on the anterior border; smooth lamellae beneath finger III 9 or 10 and toe IV 12-15; six enlarged precloacal scales; and four distinct black stripes on dorsum. The new species differs genetically from its closest congeners, S. bowringii (Günther) and S. frontoparietale (Taylor), by uncorrected p-distances of 10.0% and 9.5%, respectively in ND1 sequences, and clusters into the same matriline with these two congeners on the phylogenetic trees.The genus Thamnodynastes is the most diverse within the tribe Tachymenini, with an extensive and complex taxonomic history. The brief descriptions and lack of robust diagnostic characters are the main sources for identification errors and for the difficulty to assess the diversity estimates of the genus. The Thamnodynastes pallidus group was briefly designated to encompass the most arboreal species of the genus, with thinner bodies and longer tails T. pallidus, T. longicaudus, T. sertanejo, and a fourth undescribed species. After its designation, no other paper addressed this group and its morphological variation, especially for the hemipenis, is still undetermined. After the analysis of all species of Thamnodynastes we were able to corroborate the distinctiveness of the T. pallidus group and to accurately diagnose its fourth species from the western portion of the Amazonia lowlands. The new species is distinguishable from all congeners, except T. sertanejo, by the absence of ventral longitudinal stripes, 17/17/11 dorsal scale rows, and dorsal dark brown blotches on the anterior third of the body. The new species is distinguished from T. sertanejo by the higher number of subcaudals, lower number of ventrals, and smaller body and head sizes. We also provide additional diagnostic features for the Thamnodynastes pallidus group, including new data on hemipenial variation. Finally, we briefly discuss the defensive behavior and morphological characters associated with arboreality in members of the T. pallidus species group.Taxonomical and morphological notes on the species in the "cruciata-group" of Rhiginia Stål, 1859 (Heteroptera, Reduviidae, Ectrichodiinae, Ectrichodiini) are provided. Photographs of the type specimens of R. bimaculata Breddin, 1914, R. cinctiventris (Stål, 1872), R. crucifera (Stål, 1872), and R. crudelis Stål, 1862 are presented. Rhiginia lourdesae sp. nov. and Rhiginia nicholsae sp. nov. are described based on male specimens from Mexico and considered as members of the "cruciata-group". We also provide an updated key to the New World genera of Ectrichodiinae that includes the genus Tribelocodia Weirauch, 2010 to reflect recent taxonomic changes to the classification of the subfamily.Stoliczka (1870) described Hylorana nicobariensis from the Nicobar Islands of India. The generic allocation of this enigmatic species is yet to be fully resolved (Chan et al. 2020b) and it has been placed in different genera (Boulenger 1885; Frost et al. 2006; Che et al. 2007; Oliver et al. 2015; Chan et al. 2020a; Chandramouli et al. 2020). As of now, the species is assigned to the genus Indosylvirana (Oliver et al. 2015; Chan et al. 2020b; Frost 2020). Apart from Nicobar archipelago, this species is distributed in the insular regions of southeast Asia (Oliver et al. 2015; Chandramouli et al. 2020; Frost 2020) and the states of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Mizoram, Tripura and West Bengal in northeast India (Sarkar et al. 1992, 2002; Sarkar Ray 2006; Ahmed et al. 2009; Mathew Sen 2010; Lalremsanga 2011; Lalremsanga et al. 2015, 2016). However, Frost (2020) doubted the records of this species in northeast India. Systematic studies on the herpetofauna of northeast India based on molecular evidence are scanty (Lalronunga et al. 2020a), and species recorded from the area need confirmation (Frost 2020). Recent studies revealed that many species previously recorded from northeast India were based on misidentifications (Das et al. 2019; Giri et al. 2019; Lalronunga et al. 2020b), therefore, a review and revalidation on the herpetofaunal list of the area is warranted. Herein, we examined the identity of the species recorded as I. nicobariensis from northeast India using morphological data and a fragment of 16S rRNA mitochondrial gene.Two species of Tingidae (Heteroptera) sampled by fogging at Baiteta, Papua New Guinea, are described as new to science. Comments on their distribution and host-plants as well as an identification key to species of the genera concerned are provided.A new species of halotolerant Ariadna Audouin, 1826 is described from Western Australia, based on morphological features of both the male and female, and elevating the total number of described species of Ariadna in Australia to 14. This is the first record of the tube-web spider family Segestriidae Simon, 1893 inhabiting salt lakes, where they construct burrows in to the lake surface. The species is likely to be of conservation importance, due to its specialised habitat requirements and the many threats posed to the salt lake ecosystem. We provide recommendation for Ariadna phantasma sp. nov. to be considered for inclusion in the IUCN Red List.A new fossil earwig nymph, Eminepygia myanmarensis gen. et sp. nov. (Pygidicranidae), from the mid-Cretaceous amber of Myanmar, is described and figured. Eminepygia myanmarensis gen. et sp. nov. can be readily distinguished from all other extinct and recent members of Dermaptera by the prominent bulges on the last three terga. Our new finding sheds further light on the diversity and morphological disparity of fossil dermapterans during the Late Mesozoic.Four new species of the genus Locheutis Meyrick, 1883 are described. Locheutis pingxiangensis Wang, sp. nov., L. similempolaea Wang, sp. nov. and L. spinellosa Wang, sp. nov. are described from China; L. elliptica Wang, sp. nov. is described from Thailand. Locheutis jiangkouensis Wang, 2004 and L. tianmushana Wang, 2002 are redescribed, with the female of L. tianmushana described for the first time. Images of adults and available genitalia are provided as well as a key to the species based on male genitalia.Thaumatoleon Esben-Petersen, 1921 is a monotypic antlion genus represented by T. splendidus Esben-Petersen, 1921 from the Oriental region. Previously, this genus was documented by only three female specimens. Here we report this genus from mainland China for the first time based on a male and two female specimens newly collected in Yunnan Province. A detailed re-description and distribution map of the genus are provided. A brief discussion on the relationships of Thaumatoleon within Nemoleontinae is also provided.A new species Macrobrachium ramae is described from Rupnarayana river, West Bengal, India along with its molecular characterization and Scanning electron microscopy. The species shares certain characters with M.gurudeve, M.jayasreei, M.kunjuramani and M.saengphani but differs remarkably from these species in the structure and shape of rostrum, telson, appendix masculina and in the size of the proximal segment of the antennular peduncle. Molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of M.ramae with mitochondrial COI and 16S rRNA genes reinforce the morphological conclusion and supports the view that it is a new species.The Nearctic species of the genus Acerocnema Becker are revised. Four species are recorded including two new species A. fasciventris (Malloch), A. merga sp. nov., A. rufula (Curran) and A. vanga sp. nov. Species descriptions, diagnoses and distribution maps are presented, including images of the male terminalia. A key to the Nearctic species is provided. COI mitochondrial DNA barcode sequences were obtained for two named and one unidentified species of Acerocnema.First and additional host-plant records for 38 species of Gelechiidae from South Africa and Kenya are presented. An annotated list with brief descriptions of larval biology and known geographical distributions is presented. Three species are described as new Mesophleps kruegeri sp. nov. (Namibia Kavango Region and South Africa Limpopo Province), Istrianis inquilinus sp. nov. (South Africa North West Province), and Teleiopsis sharporum sp. nov. (South Africa Limpopo Province). The new combination Istrianis epacria (Bradley, 1965) comb. nov. is proposed. The male genitalia of Hypatima melanecta (Meyrick, 1914) is described for the first time. It is noticed that male hitherto associated with T. commaculata (Meyrick, 1918) in fact refers to T. pundamilia Bidzilya Mey, 2018. Hypatima stasimodes (Meyrick, 1931), Dichomeris coenulenta (Meyrick, 1927), Dichomeris eustacta Meyrick, 1921, Neotelphusa similella Janse, 1958 and Argophara epaxia Janse, 1963 are recorded for the first time from South Africa, and Istrianis epacria is new for Kenya. The adults, male and female genitalia are illustrated for some species mentioned in paper. The first record of the genus Teleiopsis Sattler, 1960 from South Africa is briefly discussed.In Japan and Taiwan, five valid species of the genus Scolopendra Linnaeus, 1758 have been described S. morsitans Linnaeus, 1758, S. subspinipes Leach, 1816, S. mutilans Koch, 1878, S. japonica Koch, 1878, and S. multidens Newport, 1844. Raphin1 datasheet Recently, an undetermined species was found in the Ryukyu Archipelago and Taiwan. Using molecular phylogenetic analyses with mitochondrial COI and 16S rRNA and nuclear 28S rRNA and 18S rRNA genes as well as conventional morphological examination, we successfully discriminated this sixth species as an independent lineage from S. subspinipes, S. mutilans, and other named congeners from East and Southeast Asia. Therefore, the species was described as S. alcyona Tsukamoto Shimano, sp. nov. Several situational evidences suggest that this species prefers streamside environments and exhibits amphibious behavior.Iphidonopsis sculptus Gwiazdowicz, 2004, is currently known only from the type locality in eastern Poland and a record in southwestern Finland (Huhta, 2016). Here, we record this species from twelve localities elsewhere (Europe, Siberia, Far East of Russia, Canada) indicating its broadly Holarctic geographical range. Another genus member, Iphidonopsis magnanalis (Ma Yin, 1999), is known only from China. About half of Iphidonopsis sculptus records are associated with litter of coniferous or mixed forests, but the others, including samples with juveniles (deutonymphs), were found in bracket fungi or under tree bark. The finding of two adult females on a bark beetle, Dryocoetes affaber (Mannerheim) (Coleoptera Curculionidae Scolytinae), suggests a phoretic association, though members of the closely related genus Zerconopsis Hull, 1918 as well as of all of the subfamily Arctoseiinae are known only from phoretic dispersal by nematoceran dipterans. The morphology of adults and an immature instar (deutonymph) of I. sculptus is redescribed and newly described, respectively, and illustrated in detail.
