Anastrepha nunezae Steyskal, 1977, is recognized as a synonym of A. mucronota Stone, 1942, and A. pseudanomala Norrbom is recorded for the first time from Ecuador.

Its type species, Dictyophora [sic] viridistigma Kirby, 1891 wasfirst described in Dictyophara and then assigned to Centromeria Stal by Distant (1906). However, it bears many different characters from other Centromeria species and should be transferred to a new genus. The second new genus, Paradictyopharina gen. nov. is established for two new species, P. parallela sp. nov. and P. spina sp. nov., both from southem India. The new genus is externally similar to Dictyopharina Melichar, but can be distinguished from the latter by the differences of its mesonotum, forefemora, hind tibiae and aedeagus. Photographs of the adults of all species are presented. Descriptions of the two genera and their included species are provided together with structural illustrations.

The geological history of these highland grasslandssuggests that they underwent climatic fluctuations, with warm climate periods leading to contraction and fragmentation. This fragmentation may have led to the isolation and divergence of southem Orobrassolis populations. Human impact to these areas may have led to the extinction of the species described here.

The leafhopper genus Angustella (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Evacanthinae), was established by Li (1986) with A. nigricarina Li as its type species. Later, Li & Wang (1991) described one species, A. leucostriata. Yang & Zhang (1999) described two species, A. albonotata and A. nigrinota. Li & Wang (2003) described two species, A. rufi-penna and A. longipyga.

The male imago of M (M.) caparaoensis, sp. nov. can be distinguished from other members of the subgenus by the following combination of characteristics: 1) dorsal portion of eyes on a short stalk, dorsal upper portion circular with 12-18 large-sized facets in longest row; 2) forewings with membrane translucid, longitudinal and crossveinsbrown; 3) abdominal color pattern; 4) posteromedian margin of styliger plate with small concavity; 5) penes length approximately 0.70 length of forceps segment 1. Miroculis (Ommaethus) mourei and M. (M.) fitt-kaui are reported for the first time from the region.
查看更多>>摘要：Ilybius thynias sp. n. is a new member of the Ilybius chalconatus-group and belongs to the subgroup of the same name. It was collected in the European part of Turkey, not far from the westem coast of the Black Sea, some kilometres west of Igneada andsomewhat south of the border with Bulgaria. The species is extemally similar to the other members of that subgroup, but males deviate considerably by the shape of the median lobe and the parameres. A detailed description and several figures are given tofacilitate an easy identification of the new species. In addition, we have modified the key to species for males of the chalconatus- and erichsoni-groups given in Fery & Nilsson (1993) by including the new species and the similar, only recently described, I. adygheanus Petrov, Shapovalov & Fery, 2010. The genus Ilybius Erichson, 1832 contains now 70 members, 21 of which belong to the chalconatus-group which includes the chalconatus-suhgroup with eight species. A synopsis of the chalconatus-group is presented.
