Three New Species

The Australian Pangoniini include the most primitive known Tabanidae. Most are low-flying insects, which do not suck blood. They show progressive reduction in mandibles of the female, divisions of the third antenna1 segment, and hind tibia1 spurs. Their principal distribution is east coastal, from Torres Strait to southern New South Wales; there is a secondary centre of evolution in Western Australia; they are not known from Tasmania. Eighteen species are recognized, distributed among seven genera and subgenera, as follows: Austroplex, 3; Ectenopsis (Ectenopsis), 4; Ectenopsis (Parasilvius), 4; Ectenopsis (Leptonopsis), 2; Caenoprosopon, 4; Therevopangonia, 1. Three new species are described from Western Australia: Ectenopsis (?Ectenopsis) occidentalis, B ; Ectenopsis (Parasilvius) fusca, B, @ ; Ectenopsis (Leptonopsis) norrisi, B .

Three New Species

A new genus, Wundacaenis, is erected for three new species of Australian caenid mayflies. The genus is diagnosed by possession of distinctive lobes on the anterolateral margins of the mesonotum. The distribution of Wundacaenis extends from the Kimberleys in Western Australia, through the Alligator Rivers Region in the Northern Territory, and down the eastern coast to the Shoalhaven River in New South Wales.

The family Colomastigidae is represented on the Great Barrier Reef by a total of six species, all members of the genus Colomastix, three of which are new to science. Ranges of the three known species, C. japonica Bulycheva, 1955, C. lunalilo J.L. Barnard, 1970 and C. plumosa Ledoyer, 1979, are extended to include the Great Barrier Reef. Of the three new species, two are found only on the Reef and the third also occurs near Port Jackson, New South Wales. All six species are fully described and illustrated.

Morphological Investigations

Three new myxomycete species, Tubifera glareata, T. tomentosa and T. vanderheuliae, are described on the basis of morphological investigations and the partial 18S rDNA barcoding. Tubifera vanderheuliae, collected in Tasmania and New South Wales, is characterized by small, bouquet-shaped pseudoaethalia, cylindrical sporothecae somewhat extended at the top, and the largest spores known thus far within the genus (7.5–10.5 μm). Tubifera glareata, found thus far only in Tasmania, is somewhat similar to T. applanata found in the Holarctic region, but differs from the latter by the larger spores, absence of ring-like ornamentation on the peridium, and the smaller subspherical pseudoaethalia. Tubifera tomentosa, also collected in Tasmania, differs from the related species T. dudkae by the conspicuous amorphous felt-like cover on the surface of the pseudoaethalia.

Herein four new species of Lepidocyrtoides are described and illustrated: three from Brazilian Amazon, L. caeruleomaculatus sp. nov., L. colormutatus sp. nov. and L. bicolorangelus sp. nov., all similar to each other by macrochaetotaxy reduced; and L. hopkini sp. nov. from New South Wales, Australia. Lepidocyrtoides tapuia comb. nov. (Arlé & Guimarães) and L. villasboasi comb. nov. (Arlé & Guimarães) are redescribed and transferred from Lepidosira Schött due to projection of mesothorax over head and manubrial plate with blunt macrochaetae. Neotypes are designated to both species. The holotype of L. oliveri Liu, Chen & Greenslade is analyzed and details of the dorsal chaetotaxy are added. Keys to the five species of the genus from Brazil and six from Australia are provided. Lepidocyrtoides now is recorded from the New World, South and Southeast Asia and Oceania, and the records of Lepidosira in the American continent are excluded.

Three New Species

Abstract Binburrum Pollock, 1995 is a small group of fire-coloured beetles (Tenebrionoidea: Pyrochroidae: Pilipalpinae) endemic to Australia with five described species. Herein, three new species of Binburrum – B. articuno (southeastern South Australia), B. moltres (northeastern Queensland, Australia), and B. zapdos (northeastern Queensland) – are described based on comparative anatomy, highlighting the underestimated diversity of this genus. Binburrum angusticollis Pollock, 1995 is newly recorded from New South Wales, Australia. Descriptions of new species are supplemented with digital photographs and scientific illustrations of habitus and salient structures. A key for the identification of Binburrum is provided.

This paper contains descriptions of thirteen new Australian species of Scapheremaeus Berlese, 1910, belonging to the species groups Carinatus from New South Wales and Victoria (S. alisonae sp. nov., S. allmani sp. nov., S. nivalis sp. nov., S. tuberculosus sp. nov. and S. zephyrus sp. nov.), Patella from Western Australia and Tasmania (S. baylyi sp. nov. and S. tegulatus sp. nov.), Petrosus from New South Wales, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia (S. bulbosensillatus sp. nov., S. euthemellus sp. nov., S. minjambuta sp. nov., S. notoverrucatus sp. nov. and S. truncatus sp. nov.) and Emarginatus from Queensland (S. walteri sp. nov.), Only members of the predominantly Neotropical and Australasian Carinatus species-group have been described from Australia hitherto, and Australian species constitute a third of this group. The Patella species-group is mostly Afrotropical (four spp.), with one Palaearctic and three Australasian species, including the two new species described herein. The Petrosus species-group, previously known from three Palaearctic, two Oriental and one Neotropical species, is now dominated by five new Australian species described herein. The Emarginatus species-group contains one species each from Australia, New Zealand, Java and Cuba. A key to Australian species is provided. The genus Scapheremaeus contains some 112 species, and can beconsidered hyperdiverse by oribatid standards. Morphological traits are considered that may relate to the ecological diversification and adaptive radiation of Scapheremaeus, particularly those related to species living on leaves and stems within rainforest canopies.
