The genus is divided into two species groups: the peruvianus Group including N annulatus sp. nov., N. barcelosiensis sp. nov., N. flavoscutellatus sp. nov., N. luteus sp.nov., N. manaos sp. nov., N. manuensis sp. nov., N melleus sp. nov., N. nitidus sp. nov., N. peruvianus Hennig, 1969, and N. waorani sp. nov.; and the rotundipennis Group including N. cariri Amorim & Vasconcelos, 1990, N. minor sp. nov., N. ranyseae sp.nov., and N. rotundipennis Mailoch, 1926. A phylogenetic analysis was performed to test the monophyly of the Neoscutops species groups proposed in this study. An identification key for the species of Neoscutops is provided.

Aradid collections from Yunnan Province in China contained three new species belonging to this genus, which aredescribed and figured. A key to the four species is given and photos of the hitherto unknown male of Signocoris kaszabi Hoberlandt 1958 are presented.
查看更多>>摘要：The genus Batriscenellus Jeannel is redefined, and its taxonomic placement discussed. The subgenera Scaioscenellus Jeannel, Batriscenellinus Nomura, and Nipponoscenellus Nomura are placed as synonyms of Batriscenellus, and the genus is divided into six species groups. Three eastern Chinese species, B. chinensis, B. femoralis, and B. pulcher, are described as new. The following new combinations are created: B. auritus (Lobl), B. satoi (Nomura) and B. subpalpicolus (Nomura), all moved from Batrisiellato Batriscenellus. New distributional records for B. orientalis and B. auritus in China are provided. Illustrations of major diagnostic characters are given for the new and the newly recorded Chinese species. An identification key to the species groups and to the Chinese species of Batriscenellus is given. A checklist of Batriscenellus is presented.
查看更多>>摘要：Two new species of Torridincolidae from China, Satonius fui sp. nov. (Hubei) and S.jaechi sp. nov. (Fujian) are described, illustrated and compared with other species of the genus. The polymorphism of metathoracic wings was studied in the Japanese S.kurosawai (Sato, 1982), which macropterous form is presented here for the first time. In addition, new records of S. sty si Hajek & Fikacek, 2008 in China are also briefly mentioned.
查看更多>>摘要：Aspidepyris Evans, 1964 is an Epyrinae genus with two known Neotropical species. The taxonomic knowledge of its species is summarized. Aspidepyris austrinus Evans, 1967 and A. foveolatus Evans, 1964 are revised and illustrated. Additional taxonomic variations are added and geographic distribution is broadened. Aspidepyris is recorded from Trinidad & Tobago, Colombia, and Argentina for the first time. A key for both species is firstly provided.
