(Deltocephalini), Teinopterus microphallus gen.n. & sp.n. (Paralimnini), Tytthuspilus onychophallus gen.n. & sp.n.(Paralimnini) and Umeqi okhahlamba gen.n. & sp.n. (Paralimnini). These genera and species are associated with grass mainly in the Fynbos and Grassland Biomes of South Africa. The revision of Lecacis Theron (Paralimnini) concerns the redescription of themale type species of L. platypennis, the new description of the female, and two new species. Lecacis species appear to be distributed somewhat randomly in the Grassland and Savanna Biome of South Africa.
查看更多>>摘要：The tribe Lethaeini Stal from China is reviewed. Seventeen species in seven genera are recognized. Four genera, Adauctus Distant, Atkinsonianus Distant, Lamproceps Reuter, and Lethaeus Dallas; and five species, Adauctus cupreus Distant, Atkinsonianusreticulatus Distant, Lamproceps antennatus (Scott), Lamproceps bipunctatus (Bergroth), and Lethaeus taprobanes Kirkaldy are reported for the first time from China (new records). Diniella yinae Zheng & Liu is treated as a junior synonym of Lamproceps antennatus (Scott) (new synonymy). A key to Chinese genera and species of the tribe is given. Diagnoses of the genera, habitus photos, male genitalia illustrations, additional distributions, biology (if possible), and taxonomic remarks of the species are also presented.

A similar species, P. simianshanus new species, is described from Chongqing, central China. Prosopocoilus reni new species is described from Hainan, China. Taxonomic notes are given for Kirchnerius guangxii Scheme, Prosopocoilus astacoides (Hope) and Prosopocoilus duplodentatus Benesh. Three new synonyms are presented: Prosopocoilus Hope = Kirchnerius Schenk new synonym;Prosopocoilus cyclommatoides Lacroix = Kirchnerius guangxii Schenk new synonym; Prosopocoilus oweni melli Kriesche = Prosopocoilus duplodentatus Benesh new synonym.

The relation with the genera Miogryllus Saussure, 1877 and Kazuemba Mello, 1990 is discussed; as well as their inclusion in Modicogryllini. Gryllodes sigillatus is reported for Colombia, with distribution data of the examined specimens, and the allocation of figures of Gryllodes species in Otte 2006 is corrected.
查看更多>>摘要：This paper describes and illustrates two new species of mole crickets of the genus Scapteriscus from the forest of the Colombian Amazon and Orinoquia regions, based on linear morphometry, level of coverage of tympanum, ocelli form, in-traocellar distances, intraocular distances and interdactylar distances as proposed in Nickle in 2003. The interspecific relations of the new species are discussed.
