In recent years there has been an increase in the number of papers dealing with the family Cupedidae, but in spite of the revised interest in this group there is still no publication which treats the family on a world-wide basis and provides keys for separating all the genera and species. According to Janssens (1953), the family contains 22 species belonging to five genera. Recently, Neboiss (1959) added three new species from Australia and erected a new South American genus, while Papp (1961) described a new species from California. In this paper I will bring the available information on the Cupedidae together and present a list of fossil forms, a series of keys to the genera and species, and an account of their geographical distribution. In addition, I propose three new synonyms in the genus Cupes.

A new genus Burmanyctycia gen. n. is described for the new species Burmanyctycia naumanni sp. n. from Chin State in north-western Myanmar. The new genus is related to the genera Blepharomima Hreblay & L. Ronkay, 1998, Bryotypella Hreblay & L. Ronkay, 1998 and Charanyctycia Hreblay & L. Ronkay, 1998. Two new synonyms are established: Bryotypella = Paranyctycia Hreblay & L. Ronkay, 1998, syn. n. and Bryotypella = Parabole Hreblay & L. Ronkay, 1998, syn. n. Six new combinations are established: Bryotypella minima (Hreblay & L. Ronkay, 1999), comb. n., Bryotypella miraculosa (Hreblay, Peregovits & L. Ronkay, 1999), comb. n., Bryotypella orbiculosa (Hreblay & L. Ronkay, 1998), comb. n., Bryotypella rubiculosa (Hreblay & Ronkay, 1999), comb. n., Bryotypella medionigra (Hreblay & Ronkay, 1998), comb. n. and Bryotypella rectilinea (Hreblay & L. Ronkay, 1998), comb. n. The check-lists of the genera Bryotypella and Charanyctycia are provided. Adults, male and female genitalia of the new and the related taxa are illustrated.

The aphelinid genus Diaspiniphagus Silvestri is considered a valid taxon, distinct from Coccophagoides Girault. Both genera are briefly diagnosed and the world species are listed. Diaspiniphagus is newly recorded from India and a new species, D. decorus sp. nov., is described. The following species are transferred to Diaspiniphagus as new combinations: D. inlacertus (Girault) from CoccophagusWestwood and D. fasciativentris (Girault), D. forbesi (Dozier), D. fuscipennis (Girault), and D. pulchellus (Dozier) from Prospaltella Ashmead.

The Lygaeid bug described below has been well known as a pest of strawberries in Tasmania for a long time, both Thompson (1895) and Lea (1908) having given particulars of its activities under the name of the “Strawberry Bug.” Lea mentions that it also occurs in Victoria and New South Wales, but as it belongs to cosmopolitan genus with a world-wide distribution, it is possible that the Tasmanian species is distinct.

The systematic position of the genus Rhabdochona Railliet, 1916 and its diagnosis is reviewed. The genus comprising 33 species has a world-wide distribution and has been found, with one exception, in fish. Species from fish in North America are discussed and R. cascadilla Wigdor, 1918 is redescribed; R. laurentiana Lyster, 1940 is considered to be identical with the latter. A new species, R. milleri, is described. A host list and the geographical distribution of the 33 species of Rhabdochona so far recorded are given.

Chigger mites of Turkey were studied on the base of three expeditions (in 1969, 1998, and 2009) and revision of all pre-viously published data on this subject. In total, 43 species from 14 genera parasitizing rodents, soricomorphs, and reptilesin Turkey are considered, 37 of which are identified exactly. Eight new species from the Western and Central Taurus Mtsare described: Xinjiangsha lyciaensis sp. nov., Kepkatrombicula ciliciensis sp. nov., K. taurensis sp. nov., Neotrombiculakizlarsivrisiensis sp. nov., N. kolebinovae sp. nov., N. bolkarensis sp. nov., Miyatrombicula attaliaensis sp. nov., andCheladonta deserticola sp. nov. Twelve species were recorded in Turkey for the first time; moreover, some new recordsfrom other countries were reported (four species were for the first time recorded in Russia, and by one species were re-corded in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Israel, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan). For seven chigger genera (Xinjiangsha Wen andShao, 1984, Hirsutiella Schluger and Vysotzkaya, 1970, Lacertacarus Schluger and Vasilieva, 1977, Miyatrombicula Sa-sa, Kawashima and Egashira, 1952, Brunehaldia Vercammen-Grandjean, 1960, Cheladonta Lipovsky, Crossley andLoomis, 1955, and Matacarus Vercammen-Grandjean, 1956), the complete lists of species in the world fauna are provid-ed. Four new synonyms and 18 new combinations were established: Xinjiangsha Wen and Shao, 1984 (= AboriginesiaKudryashova, 1993, syn. nov.), Neotrombicula vulgaris (Schluger, 1955) (= Trombicula acomys Radford, 1957, syn.nov.), Brunehaldia brunehaldi (Vercammen-Grandjean, 1956) (= Eushoengastia (Brunehaldia) aegypti Vercammen-Grandjean and Kolebinova, 1966, syn. nov.), Brunehaldia curtinae (Kepka, 1966) (= Eushoengastia (Brunehaldia) lucida(Schluger, 1966), syn. nov.), Xinjiangsha blanci (Vercammen-Grandjean, 1956), comb. nov., X. danieli (Kolebinova,1974), comb. nov., X. feideri (Daniel and Brelih, 1959), comb. nov., X. galla (Kolebinova, 1970), comb. nov., X. iberica(Schluger, 1957), comb. nov., X. imlilica (Brown, 2008), comb. nov., X. ludmilae (Kováčik and Kalúz, 2010), comb. nov.,X. montana (Kudryashova, 1965), comb. nov., X. monticola (Kolebinova, 1974), comb. nov., X. obuchi (Kováčik and Ka-lúz, 2010), comb. nov., X. raissae (Hushcha and Kharadov, 1987), comb. nov., X. talpae (Kolebinova, 1977), comb. nov.,X. tarda (Schluger, 1957), comb. nov., X. theodori (Hushcha, 1986), comb. nov., X. tshatkalica (Hushcha and Kharadov,1985), comb. nov., X. variabilis (Schluger and Vshivkov, 1967), comb. nov., Brunehaldia spalaxia (Radford, 1957),comb. nov., and Matacarus demrei (Kepka, 1962), comb. nov.

The sexuality of Solenostoma species is discussed and it is concluded that Solenostoma sanguinolentum is heteroicous. This and other morphological differences from Solenostoma marcescens are discussed and they are considered to belong to the same species. Heteroicity probably also occurs in Solenostoma micranthum and possibly in other Solenostoma species. Solenostoma rossicum and Solenostoma pyriflorum subsp. purpureum are new synonyms to Solenostoma sphaerocarpum. Solenostoma ochotense is a new synonym to Solenostoma hokkaidense. Solenostoma costaricanum is a new synonym to Solenostoma amoenum. Plectocolea subbalfourii is a new synonym to Solenostoma balfourii. Solenostoma rubrum var. underwoodii is a new synonym to Solenostoma rubrum. Plectocolea yunnanensis is a new synonym to Solenostoma sikkimense. Solenostoma inundatum var. grandirete is a new synonym to Solenostoma orbiculatum. Solenostoma kurilense and Solenostoma ovalifolia are new combinations and Solenostoma philippinense a new species.

Eophliantidae are poorly studied marine algal-dwelling amphipods with a wide distribution. A new species was found to excavate burrows across the main stem of Carpophyllum maschalocarpum (Turner) Grev. in the New Zealand subtidal, and a detailed morphological description of this amphipod is given. Bircenna macayai sp. nov. can be distinguished from other Bircenna species by a combination of the following characters: bilobed coxa 1, merus and carpus of pereopods 5–7 strongly extended posteriorly, crenulate basis of pereopod 7 and smooth posterior margin of epimeron 3, pereopod 7 basis longer than wide. A key to the fourteen world species of Eophliantidae is provided. Taxonomy, evolutionary sequences, functional morphology and biogeography of the Eophliantidae are briefly discussed. New Zealand and Australian shallow waters show the highest species diversity of Eophliantidae, containing both species bearing plesiomorphic and highly derived characters, suggesting that Australasia is an evolutionary centre for this amphipod family.
