Sphaerotheca pashchima, a new species of burrowing frog, is described from western India. It can be diagnosed from all its congeners based on a combination of characters including interorbital width less than upper eyelid width, snout to nostril distance less than half of eye diameter, nostril nearer to snout than to eye, internarial distance greater than inter orbital distance, snout rounded, dorsum rough and warty, finger 2 length equal to or less than finger 4 length, finger 1 less finger 3 length, outer metatarsal tubercle absent, tibio tarsal tubercle absent, length of inner metatarsal tubercle more than three times the inner toe length and reduced webbing.  We also provide 16S rRNA gene sequence for S. pashchima sp. nov. and show that it is genetically distinct from species of Sphaerotheca for which genetic data is available.

A new species, Megachile (Neocressionella) patialensis is described from Patiala, India. Full description of male with their floral relationship, morphological measurements and specimens examined is provided. Knowledge of the life history and nesting habits of Megachile bees will pave the way for their manipulation so that these can be used to increase pollination. Documentation of the genera and species will increase our knowledge of the biodiversity of these bees in the study area.

Abstract A new species of long-legged sesarmid crab of the Leptarma leptosoma (Hilgendorf, 1869) species-group is described from mangroves in south-western India. In the general carapace features as well as in the proportions of the long ambulatory legs, L. biju n. sp. is most similar to L. gracilipes (Li, Rahayu & Ng, 2018), from eastern Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, but can easily be distinguished by the structure of the gonopods as well as the leg proportions.

In this paper we introduce a new species of Tamhinispora collected from Western Ghats of Maharashtra, India. This monotypic genus, belonging to Tubeufiaceae, was established based on the type species T. indica, collected from Tamhini Ghats of western India. The new species differs from the type species based on key characteristics, such as branched or Y-shaped conidial body and presence of arm-like conidial appendages. Single conidial cultures were developed and sporulation was established on MEA media following a long period of incubation. Phylogenetic analyses using ITS and LSU sequence data confirmed the position of T. srinivasanii along with T. indica in the Tamhinispora clade in Tubeufiaceae.

Two species of the beach-hopper genus Talorchestia Dana, 1853 were collected at Cheriyam Island in the union territory of Lakshadweep in south western India. One species was identified as T. affinis Maccagno, 1936, known previously from the Red Sea, Somalia and East Africa and recorded for the first time from India, the other proved to be a new species, T. lakshadweepensis sp. nov.

Apenesia sahyadrica sp. nov. is described and illustrated based on specimens from Arabic coffee infested with the white stem borer Xylotrechus quadripes Chevrolat. The new species is endemic to Western India and is under laboratory rearing in Coffee Research Station Chikmagalur for biocontrol of this pest. The new species is compared with other related species of Oriental Apenesia.
