Horvathinia pelocoroides Montandon, 1911 was described as a new genus and species based on two specimens collected in Brazil, one from Minas Gerais deposited in the Naturhistoriska Riksmuseet (Stockholm) and the other from Rio Grande do Sul deposited in the Magyar Természettudományi Múzeum (Budapest) (Montandon 1911). Subsequently, nine additional species were described based on a single specimen each, collected at different localities in southern South America: H. doellojuradoi De Carlo, 1930; H. pelleranoi De Carlo, 1930; H. castilloi De Carlo, 1938; H. meyeri De Carlo, 1938; H. bollei De Carlo, 1958; H. lenti De Carlo, 1958; H. schubarti De Carlo, 1958; H. forsteri Lauck, 1958; and H. argemii Schnack, 1972 (Schnack & Estévez 2005).

The Family

A new genus and species of a chilean Paraleptamphopidae is described. Rudolphia n. gen. shares eleven characters with the family diagnosis sensu Bousfield, 1983. The diagnosis of the new genus is: A1 and A2 long; A1 equal to length of body, A1 inner flagellum scale shaped, calceoli gammarid-type in males only; Mx1 asymmetrical; Gn1 propodus mittenlike, palmar index = 1.81; Gn2 carpus longer than Gn1, palmar index = 2.39; coxal gills: P2–5 and 7 bilobate, P6 ovoid; dactyls of pereopods very long; Pleopods multiarticulate, Pl 2 sexually dimorphic; Uropods birami, rami uniarticulate, Ur1 and Ur2 exopodites scarcely shorter than endopodites, Ur1 peduncle longer than rami, Ur2 resembling Ur1 but much shorter, Ur3 subequal in length to Ur2, Ur3 peduncle shorter than rami, rami acuminated of equal length, with pairs of a bifid and a plumose setae; Telson cleft halfway. Rudolphia macrodactylus n. sp. is the first discovery of Paraleptamphopidae sp. out of New Zealand. A cladistic analysis allows us support that Paraleptamphopidae clade was differentiated before the New ZealandSouth America separation (80–85 mya).

A fragmentary specimen of pterosaur originally assigned to the genus Pterodaustro Bonaparte, 1970 is reassessed. The presence of a sagittal dorsal cranial crest on a fragment of nasopreorbital arcade with linear vertical trabeculae and the occurrence of alveolar protuberances on the os dentale indicate the new specimen has similarities with crested pterodactyloid pterosaurs of the family Ctenochasmatidae, and with members of the Dsungaripteridae. The presence of alveolar protuberances allows us to assign the specimen to the Dsungaripteridae. It forms the basis of a new genus and species, Domeykodactylus ceciliae.

Dna Sequence Data

The generic taxonomy of the Nothofagaceae is revised. We present a new phylogenetic analysis of morphological characters and map these characters onto a recently published phylogenetic tree obtained from DNA sequence data. Results of these and previous analyses strongly support the monophyly of four clades of Nothofagaceae that are currently treated as subgenera of Nothofagus. The four clades of Nothofagaceae are robust and well-supported, with deep stem divergences, have evolutionary equivalence with other genera of Fagales, and can be circumscribed with morphological characters. We argue that these morphological and molecular differences are sufficient for the four clades of Nothofagaceae to be recognised at the primary rank of genus, and that this classification will be more informative and efficient than the currently circumscribed Nothofagus with four subgenera.        Nothofagus is recircumscribed to include five species from southern South America, Lophozonia and Trisyngyne are reinstated, and the new genus Fuscospora is described. Fuscospora and Lophozonia, with six and seven species respectively, occur in New Zealand, southern South America and Australia. Trisyngyne comprises 25 species from New Caledonia, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. New combinations are provided where necessary in each of these genera.

First Time

A new genus of gnaphosid spiders, Almafuerte, gen. nov., is described for seven species from Southern South America. The new genus is diagnosed by a conspicuous retrolateral tegular projection on the male palp, and by having three teeth on the cheliceral retromargin. It comprises six species from Argentina, A. peripampasica sp. nov. (type species), from Central Argentina, also present in Uruguay, A. kuru sp. nov., from Santiago del Estero, A. vigorosa sp. nov., from Corrientes, A. goloboffi sp. nov., from Salta and Jujuy, A. remota sp. nov., from Santiago del Estero and Mendoza, and A. giaii (Gerschman & Schiapelli) comb. nov., here transferred from Echemus, from Santa Fe (the female is here described by the first time); and one species from Bolivia, A. facon sp. nov., from Cochabamba. Hypotheses of relationships of the new taxa are briefly discussed, in the context of the previously proposed groupings: the subfamilies Echeminae and Drassodinae (sensu Platnick 1990) and the “Echemus group” (sensu Murphy 2007).
