In this paper, three new species of eriophyoid mites of the family Eriophyidae from South China are described and illustrated. They are: Stenacis cryptomeris sp. nov. infesting Cryptomeria japonica (Thunb. Ex L.f.) D.Don (Cupressaceae), Tetra guizhouensis sp. nov. infesting Caesalpinia sp. (Leguminosae), and Nothopoda schimae sp. nov. infesting Schima superba Gardner & Champ. (Theaceae). All of these three new species are vagrants on lower leaf surface and causing no apparent damages to their host plants.

A new genus and two new species of eriophyoid mites in the family Diptilomiopidae associated with Spondias mombin L. (Anacardiaceae), namely Solivagus n. gen. alpha n. sp. and Davisella spondias n. sp., are described. In addition, a new species of Eriophyidae associated with Eugenia uniflora L. (Myrtaceae), namely Dichopelmus ibapitanga n. sp., is described and Aculus pitangae Boczek & Davis, also from E. uniflora, is redescribed including a description of the male, and its classification is discussed. All material studied was collected in the State of Pernambuco, Northeastern Brazil.

Two new species of the family Eriophyidae (Acari: Eriophyoidea) from Mount Trusmadi, Malaysia, are described and illustrated. They are Neodicrothrix grandcaputus sp. nov. on Stachyurus himalaicus (Stachyuraceae) and Latitudo asiaticis sp. nov. on Psychotria asiatica (Rubiaceae). Both of the two new species are vagrant on the lower leaf surface. No damage to the host was observed. In addition to the description, a key to species of Neodicrothrix is provided.

Abstract Describes ammonites belonging to the family Tulitidae from Bathonian (Jurassic) localities of France. Specimens formerly attributed to Ammonites microstoma are assigned to the new genus Treptoceras, with two new species T. laurenti and T. crimaciense A complete specimen of Schwandorfia marginata is also described. The genera Sphaeroptychius, Schwandorfia, and Treptoceras are considered diagnostic of the middle and upper Bathonian.

A new genus Mirabythus Cai, Shih et Ren, gen. nov. (type species, M. lechrius Cai, Shih et Ren, sp. nov.) and M. liae Cai, Shih et Ren, sp. nov. from the family Scolebythidae are described from the Early Cretaceous Yixian Formation of Huangbanjigou Village, Liaoning Province, northeastern China. These findings extend the existence of Scolebythidae to the Early Cretaceous of China, while providing evidence to support Engel and Grimaldi’s hypothesis that the family was widely distributed throughout the Cretaceous. Our two new species with clear venation also provide a comprehensive understanding of the venational changes from the Early Cretaceous to now. A key to the fossil and extant genera of Scolebythidae is provided.

One new genus and four new species of eriophyoid mites from Britain are described and illustrated: Novophytoptus acu-leatus n. sp. (Phytoptidae) from Juncus squarrosus L. (Juncaceae); Tegnacus unicornutus n. gen. & n. sp. (Eriophyidae)from Carpinus betulus L. (Betulaceae); Calacarus pusillus n. sp. (Eriophyidae) from Calluna vulgaris (L.) Hull (Ericace-ae); and Brevulacus extensus n. sp. (Diptilomiopidae) from Quercus robur L. (Fagaceae). Digital micrographs are alsoprovided for each new taxon. Furthermore, 19 eriophyoid species are confirmed or recorded in Britain for the first time:one species in the family Phytoptidae, Trisetacus ehmanni Keifer from Pinus sylvestris L. (Pinaceae); 13 species belong-ing in the family Eriophyidae, Abacarus acutatus Sukhareva and Aceria eximia Sukhareva from Calamagrostis epigeios(L.) Roth (Poaceae), Acaricalus hydrophylli Keifer from Ilex aquifolium L. (Aquifoliaceae), Aceria exigua (Liro) from C.vulgaris, Acaricalus rubrifoliae Labanowski and Glyptacus fagineae Carmona from Q. robur, Aculus cytisi Labanowskifrom Cytisus scoparius (L.) (Fabaceae), Anthocoptes transitionalis Hodgkiss from Acer pseudoplatanus L. (Sapindaceae),Calepitrimerus buxi Petanović from Buxus sempervirens L. (Buxaceae), Calepitrimerus crataegi Malandraki, Petanović& Emmanouel from Crataegus monogyna Jacq. (Rosaceae), Neotegonotus fastigatus (Nalepa) from Acer campestre L.(Sapindaceae), Phyllocoptes abaenus Keifer from Prunus spinosa L., and Platyphytoptus sabinianae Keifer from Pinusnigra J.F. Arnold; five species belonging in the family Diptilomiopidae, Brevulacus reticulatus Manson from Q. robur andQuercus cerris L., Cheiracus ornatus (Farkas) from Fagus sylvatica L. (Fagaceae), Quadracus urticarius (Canestrini &Massalongo) from Urtica dioica L. (Urticaceae), Rhinophytoptus bagdasariani Shevtchenko & Pogosova from Ulmusprocera Salisb. (Ulmaceae), and Rhyncaphytoptus amplus Keifer from Acer pseudoplatanus L. Two species are also re-corded here in Britain as incursions, Tumescoptes trachycarpi Keifer on Trachycarpus fortunei (Hook.) H. Wendl. (Are-caceae) from a commercial plant nursery site, and Aceria gilloglii on Pleioblastus distichus (Mitford) Nakai[=Arundinaria pygmaea (Miq.) Asch. & Graebn. var. disticha (Mitford) C.S. Chao & Renvoize] (Poaceae) from a botan-ical garden. Collection details, distribution records and host symptoms are given for each species. The practice of publishing records solely identified from gall morphology and host association is also discussed.
