Two New Species

Two new species of the genus Mannia, viz. M. foreaui Udar et Chandra from Kodaikanal, South India, and M. perssonii Udar et Chandra from Gangotri, Western Himalayas, along with M. indica (St.) Kachroo and M. dichotoma (Raddi) comb. nov. have been described from India. The problem of generic epithet has been discussed and it is argued to conserve Mannia Opiz instead of Grimaldia Raddi in conformity with the recent Code of Botanical Nomenclature.

A New Species

Indian species of Phrynocaria Timberlake, 1943 (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) are briefly reviewed and illustrated with notes on diagnosis, nomenclature, distribution and hosts. Coelophora circumusta (Mulsant, 1850), which has a limited distribution in India, is transferred to Phrynocaria (new combination) and Coelophora moseri Weise, 1902 is synonymized with it (new synonym). A new species, Phrynocaria perfida Poorani, sp. n. (Coleoptera, Coccinellidae) is described from South India based on specimens hitherto misidentified as a variety of C. circumusta. The validity of Phrynocaria funebris (Crotch, 1874) is confirmed based on examination and dissection of the type specimen; the species is redescribed and the male genitalia illustrated.

Unknown Male

The genus Ajothrips was erected for two new species from India (Bhatti 1967), although subsequently a third Indian species was added (Bhatti 1997). All three species have remained known only from females, although Mound (2009) recorded the presence of sternal pore plates in unspecified males of this genus. The purpose of this note is to record the type species, A. karma, from China, and to describe the unknown male. The systematic position of the genus has a confusing history. Considered by Bhatti (1967) as related to Scirtothrips, it was subsequently excluded from the Scirtothrips genus-group (Masumoto & Okajima 2007). However, more recent studies (Ng & Mound 2015; Lima & Mound 2016) have retained the systematic relationship proposed by Bhatti.

Bhatia radhamaniae sp. nov. (Karnataka: Sirsi) and Bhatia serrata sp. nov. (Kerala: Nilambur) are described and illustrated. The genus Bhatia is redefined. A key to species of Bhatia from the Indian subcontinent is also provided. New locality records for Bhatia distanti Zhang & Webb, Carvaka kumari Viraktamath, Indokutara conica Viraktamath, Kotabala adiveyyai Viraktamath and Parohinka longiseta (Melichar) are given.

The Western Ghats

Two new black fly species, Simulium (Gomphostilbia) dinakarani sp. nov. and Simulium (Gomphostilbia) krishnani sp. nov. are described based on reared adult, pupal and larval specimens collected from the Western Ghats of India. These two new species are placed in the Simulium batoense species-group of the subgenus Gomphostilbia Enderlein. The morphological characters of two new species are compared with other related species of batoense species-group in India. The COI gene has successfully differentiated these two new species from its allies, S. (G.) panagudiense and S. (G.) takaokai of the batoense species group and the phylogenetic analysis by using COI gene sequences supporting its morphological classification.
