Lee, sp. nov., E.finitus Lim et S. Lee, sp. nov., E.jeonbukensis Lim et S. Lee, sp.nov., E. limatulus Lim et S. Lee, sp. nov., E. longiantennatus Lim et S. Lee, sp. nov., E. mureungensis Lim et S. Lee, sp. nov., E. yetus Lim et S. Lee, sp. nov., and E. sudosanensis Lim et S. Lee, sp. nov. are described from Korea. Hitherto unknown females are described for E. fuscipes (Kieffer 1906) and E. yamatonis Terayama 1999. New synonymy is proposed for E. sauteri (Enderlein 1920) = E.formosus Terayama 2006, syn. nov. New combination is proposed for E. fuscipes (Kieffer 1906), comb, nov. (from Rhabdepyris). Seven species: E. asura Terayama 2006, E. darani Terayama 2006, E. fuscipes (Kieffer 1906), E. idaten Terayama 2006, E. niwoh Terayama 2006, E. sauteri (Enderlein 1920), and E. yamatonis Terayama 1999 are recorded for the first time from Korea. Descriptions, illustrations of diagnostic characteristics for each species are presented with a key to the Korean Epyris species.

The most striking difference between C. formoso and other species of the genus is the presence of three pairs of setae on the dorsal surface of the head close to the posterior margin, while the other species have only one or two pairs. Species from this genus showed advanced troglobiomorphic characters in comparisonto other Brazilian cave beetles. Characters as increased extra-optic sensory structures, and the presence of particular sensilla, and sensory and gustatory receptors were not detected under routine microscopy but required ultrastructural scrutiny. Similar analyses are needed in other epigean Zuphiini species for better interpreting their functional meaning.

Tortopsis canum sp. nov. can be recognized by the color pattern of the head and pronotum, strongly shadedwith black in both sexes, male genitalia with parastyli long and straight and female parastyli receptor "C" shaped, with receptors large, occupying nearly all extension of sternum VIII. This new species represents the first record of the genus Tortopsisin Brazil.

    查看更多>>摘要:The genus Callostethus was described for Mecistorhinus guttatopunctatus (Fabricius, 1803). Here we describe a second species of the genus, C. flavolineatus sp. nov., based on a male collected in Amapa, Brazil. Descriptions were made using external morphological characters. Callostethus is closely allied to Antiteuchus and can be separated from it by the mesosternum slightly tumid with a low median subcalloused carina, calloused yellow or reddish margin of the metapleuron, and the structure of the pygophore.

    A new species of Neolasioptera (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) from Parkinsonia aculeata (Leguminosae) in Argentina for possible use in biological control in Australia, with a key to Neotropical species of Neolasioptera

    查看更多>>摘要:Neolasioptera aculeatae Gagne (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) is described as a new species from stem swellings on Parkinsonia aculeata L. (Leguminosae) in NW Argentina. The new species appears to be a good candidate for the biological control of its host inAustralia, where the plant was accidentally introduced and is currently a serious pest. The species is shown to be distinct from its 64 Neotropical congeners. A preliminary key to these species is offered that can be adapted as more work is done on Neolasioptera.
