All three species of Platychauliodes are redescribed in detail and a key to the adults presented. Chauliodes tenuis McLachlan, 1869 and Platychauliodes woodi Barnard, 1931 are treated as junior synonyms of P. pusillus (McLachlan, 1867).
查看更多>>摘要：Two new species of Cardiodactylus crickets are described from unsuspected places in Southeast Asia: C. singapura n. sp., from within the island-city of Singapore, and C. thailandia n. sp. from Thailand. Descriptions focus on male and female genitalia, forewing venation and coloration. Data are provided for C. singapura n. sp. fine-scaled habitat and calling song. Consequences in terms of distribution of the genus and conservation are discussed.
查看更多>>摘要：A new species, Stenomorpha roosevelti Smith, Miller, and Wheeler, n. sp., is described from the Cuatrocienegas Protected Area in Coahuila, Mexico. Three related species are transferred into Stenomorpha, producing the following new combinations: Stenomorpha furcata (Champion), Stenomorpha wickhami (Horn), and Stenomorpha granicollis (Blaisdell). A new informal group, the furcata species group, comprised of these four species is recognized within Stenomorpha. Diagnoses of the group and its species areprovided, along with distribution data and a key to the species.

It is the smallest species of the genus Hydroporus Clairville, 1806 recorded so far from Turkey. Morphologically the new species is very close to Hydroporus umbrosus (Gyllenhal, 1808), which is widespread in North and Central Europe, Siberia and Far East. H. esseri sp. n. can be separated from H. umbrosus chiefly by its smaller size, the shape of the median lobe and surface colour. The aedeagi and habitus of both species are illustrated. Notes on their distribution and life habitats are given. Hydroporus memnonius Nicolai, 1822 is recorded for the first time from Turkey, and H. umbrosus for the first time from Slovakia. Altogether 180 species of the genus Hydroporus are now reported world-wide and 34 from Turkey.
查看更多>>摘要：The pollen-beetle Jelinekigethes dichromus n. sp. from northern South Africa is described. The new species is closely related to the other known species of this genus, J. danielssoni (Audisio 1995) from southwestern South Africa. The taxonomic position of Jelinekigethes is discussed in the context of presumably related African and Oriental meligethine genera. Larval host plants of both species of Jelinekigethes remain unknown, although important cues suggest a relationship of J. danielssoni with the problematic and isolated family Montiniaceae.

查看更多>>摘要：Macrosaldula bogdashana Luo et Vinokurov sp. n. is described from Bogda Shan Range, Northwestern China. The new species is most similar in size and vestiture to M. oblonga oblonga (Stal, 1858) but differs in the color pattern of forewings (Fig. 1-3) and male genitalia structure (Figs. 11-14). M. bogdashana is also similar to M. tadzhika (Kiritshenko, 1912) in the same vestiture, but can be distinguished from the latter by the shorter body (see Table), shape of pale spots on corium (Figs. 6-9), and the male genitalia structure (Figs. 15-18).
查看更多>>摘要：A new species of Prophalangopsidae, Bacharboilus lii sp. nov., is described. It was collected from the Middle Jurassic Jiulongshan Formation of Daohugou Village, Ningcheng County, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, China. This exquisitely preserved specimen exhibits clear wing venation and head structures, especially the mouthpart morphology. The stout mandibles bear well defined molar dentes which indicate an herbivorous feeding habit.
