The checklist of the New World Melolonthinae published in 2003 by Evans is updated to 30 June 2005. Corrections and omissions to the previous checklist are also noted and necessary taxonomic changes are made. Melolontha elongata Fabricius, 1792 is designated as the type species of Philochloenia Dejean, 1833, syn. nov. thereby placing this genus as a junior synonym of Dichelonyx Harris, 1827. Phyllophaga guatemalica (Moser, 1918), syn. nov. and Phyllophaga longiclava (Moser, 1918), syn. nov. are placed in synonymy with Phyllophaga ravida (Blanchard, 1851). The Australian genus Deuterocaulobius Dalla Torre, 1912, stat. nov. is brought out of synonymy and considered the valid name for “Phyllochlaenia Blanchard, 1846.” Warwickia, nom. nov. is proposed as a replacement name for the junior homonym Benedictia Sanderson, 1939 (non Dybowski, 1875) and consequently, Warwickia pilosa (Sanderson, 1939), comb. nov. is a new combination for the single species in this genus. A brief overview of the tribal classification of Melolonthinae is presented.

AbstractThe tribal classification of Derbidae with respect to Otiocerini is presented and discussed. Key to extant and fossil genera of Otiocerini is provided. New genus and species from Eocene Baltic amber – Lugeilangor elektrokleistis gen. n. et sp. n. of Derbidae tribe Otiocerini Muir is described. It seems to be related to the extant Asian-Pacific genera Paralyricen Muir, 1913, and Flaccia Stål, 1866. It is the second record of the family Derbidae in Eocene Baltic amber inclusions. Palaeobiological and biogeographical significance of the fossil is discussed.

AbstractThe classification of the Aphrodinae is reviewed. The subfamily is redefined to include the Deltocephalinae (“Euscelidae”) and Hecalinae, and nine tribes are recognized: Eupelecini, Paradorydiini, Stirellini, Paraboloponini, Aphrodini, Krisnini, Selenocephalini, Hecalini, and Deltocephalini. The tribe Aphrodini is divided into six subtribes: Doraturina, Achaeticina, Anoterostemmina, Neobalina, Aphrodina, and Xestocephalina. The tribe Deltocephalini is divided into six subtribes: Deltocephalina, Athysanina, Cicadulina, Macrostelina, Platymetopiina, and Cochlorhinina. Keys are provided to the tribes and subtribes, and the Holarctic taxa are defined, with their Holarctic genera listed under each.

This taxonomic catalogue covers all family-, genusand species-group names of the Palaearctic bees of the tribe Osmiini as published by the end of 2006. As the taxonomy of the Palaearctic Osmiini is currently in a poor state, the primary goal of this catalogue is to provide a complete coverage of the widely dispersed and often not easily accessible taxonomic literature, thus laying the basis for further taxonomic work. We therefore refrain from proposing new synonyms, new names, new ranks or new combinations, and the taxa accepted here are based on a literature survey, generally adopting the most recent published opinion. The generic and subgeneric system proposed by Michener (2000) serves as a general backbone for this catalogue. We list six available family-group names, 93 available genus-group names and 935 available species-group names that currently split up into the valid names of two subtribes, 13 genera, 43 non-nominotypical subgenera, 604 species and 76 non-nominotypical subspecies. Starting with Linnaeus (1758), a total of 99 mainly European taxonomists contributed to the available species-group names by the end of 2006. Taxon accounts provide the reference to the original description, the name-bearing type(s), distribution, and literature sources for species identification. Apart from the extant taxa the catalogue also treats the extinct representatives of the osmiine bees following the tribal classification of Engel (2005).

The subfamily Melolonthinae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) is defined and characterized, and a brief summary of the world melolonthine tribes and their distributions are provided. Nearctic genera previously considered incertae sedis (Acoma Casey, 1889, Chaunocolus Saylor, 1937 and Chnaunanthus Burmeister, 1844, Phobetus LeConte, 1856, and Warwickia Smith & Evans, 2005) are each placed in the proposed new tribes Acomini, Chnaunanthini, Phobetusini, and Warwickiini, respectively. Tribal assignments for all Nearctic melolonthine genera are presented. Acoma chihuahuaensis, A. eusexfoliata, A. nonglabrata, and A. pararobusta are all new species described from Mexico. The only known example of a female Acoma, represented by a specimen of A. knulli Howden, 1958, is figured and characterized. The generic composition of the Nearctic Melolonthini and Rhizotrogini is examined. Madiniella Chalumeau & Gruner, 1976, previously placed in Tanyproctini, is transferred to Rhizotrogini. The subfamilies Oncerinae and Podolasiinae are each removed as tribes from the Melolonthinae and elevated to the subfamily level within Scarabaeidae. The subtribe Triodonina is placed in synonymy with the tribe Rhizotrogini. An updated generic checklist and tribal key of the Nearctic Melolonthinae are provided.
