Two new genera are erected of plectrothripine Phlaeothripidae from northern Australia, each based on a single species. One has a long stout projection ventrally on the second antennal segment, the other has a unique arrangement of the dorsal facets of the compound eyes. In both of them the thoracic ventral sclerites are extensively eroded.

Two new agraeciine genera and five new species are described from northern Australia. Both genera have species that live in mixed woodlands in the tropics. Armadillagraecia Rentz, Su, Ueshima, Robinson gen. nov. is known from two species in the Northern Territory and one from Queensland. Kapalgagraecia Rentz, Su, Ueshima, Robinson gen. nov. is known from two species, one apparently widespread in the Northern Territory, the other from Groote Eylandt, NT. Cytological data are provided for all Armadillagraecia species but not for Kapalgagraecia. A table is presented documenting knowledge of the known cytology of all Agraeciini. The calling songs of both A. mataranka and A. yerilla Rentz, Su, Ueshima, Robinson gen. et spp. nov. are noted and documented by sonograms. Known biological, ecological and distributional data are presented.

Two new genera and eight new species of bubocorophiid Siphonoecetini are described from north-eastern and northernAustralia: Belkginoecetes bullockyensis gen. et sp. nov. B. cooee sp. nov. (type species), B. darwiniense sp. nov., B. fleu-rae sp. nov., B. solea sp. nov., B. springthorpei sp. nov., Tropicoecetes carinata gen. et sp. nov., Rhinoecetes anneae sp.nov. The concept of bubocorophiid siphonoecetids and their distribution along eastern and northern Australia is briefly discussed. A key to species of Belkginoecetes gen. nov. is presented.

The tribal status of Phlugidini Eichler, 1938, is confirmed. A new definition of the tribe is suggested and the taxonomic relationships among genera related to the tribe are discussed. Two new genera, nine new species and one new combination are described from East Africa, New Guinea, Northern Australia, Sulawesi and Borneo. These new taxa are Phlugidia africana Kevan, Tenuiphlugis Kevan, Tenuiphlugis gressitti (Chopard, 19691, comb. nov., T. maai Jin, T. brittoni Jin, T. malkini Jin, Phlugis sulawesi Jin, P. borneoensis Jin, P. burgersi Jin, P. novaeguineaensis Jin, P. rapax Jin and P. philippina Jin.*There is more than one system dealing with the higher classification of orthopteroid insects (for detail, see Jago 1977; Kevan 1977; Ragge 1977; Rentz 1977; Vickery 1977). Among them, Rentz (1979), Kevan (1982) and Vickery and Kevan (1986) are the major recent representatives of different opinions. The designation of the Phlugidini in this paper follows the system of Vickery and Kevan (1986).

Descriptions, keys and a checklist are provided for males of 13 new species of ecnomid caddisflies from Australia. Females of 10 of these species are also described. The species are placed in two new genera, Absensomina gen. nov. and Wellsomina gen. nov. The new species are: A. weara, W. ampulla, W. baru, W. bucera, W. furca, W. gumurr, W. jalgoodoo, W. mattina, W. naumanni, W. saeta, W. stuarti, W. tam and W. thigi. Generic separation is based on female genitalic and wing features, supported by small differences in head warts and male genitalic characteristics. Both of the genera treated here are endemic to northern Australia.
