Intermittent summer collecting during the past ten years has added to my collection a considerable number of noteworthy records. These include additional stations or species previously reported from only a few localities within a particular state and for some of the less wellknown species in New England, new records for the occurrence of six species previously unreported from one or more of the New England states, and a few new host plant records.This is the first of a series of papers now in progress which will supplement my studies of the Tingidae of New England 1951 ). For ease of reerence, therefore, it follows the pattern of that study in the sequence of genera and of species. (Bailey,1951, page 5). All collections were made by the author unless otherwise specied.

Altica lencorana Konstantinov, A. longicollis (Allard), Aphtlzona atrocaerulae (Stephens), A. violaceae (Koch), and Phyllotreta lorestanica Warchalowski are new for the Turkish Alticinae fauna. A. lencorana and P. lorestanica have earlier been known to occur only in their type localities in Azerbaijan and Iran, respectively. Since then, the records reported here (Bayburt and Erzurum provinces) are the first localities for A. lencorana, and that of Erzurum for P. lorestanica. Additionally, Centaurea glastifolia L. is reported as a new host plant for A. lencorana, and Euphorbia falcate and E. erioplzora as new host plants of Aphthona atrocaerulea and A. violaceae, respectively. The chorotype and host plants are reported for each of the five species.

A list of seventeen rare and little known species of Crambidae and Pyralidae from Ukraine is given. Hyperlais claralis (Caradja, 1916) stat. rev., comb. nov. is recorded for the first time for Europe. Five species are found in Ukraine for the first time: H. claralis, Titanio ledereri (Staudinger, 1870), Lambaesia pistrinariella (Ragonot, 1887), Gymnancyla gilvella (Ragonot, 1887) and Sciota lucipetella (Jalava, 1978). Two neglected European species—Lambaesia pistrinariella and Ancylosis monella (Roesler, 1973), are confirmed to occur in Europe. The lectotype of L. pistrinariella is designated and the species is recorded for the first time from Russia. The hitherto unknown females of H. claralis and L. pistrinariella are described. The differences between H. claralis and other related Hyperlais-species are briefly discussed. The adults and the genitalia of H. claralis, H. dulcinalis (Treitschke, 1835), Udea institalis (Hübner, 1819), A. monella, L. pistrinariella, Bradyrrhoa confiniella (Zeller, 1848), B. imperialella (Ragonot, 1887) and G. gilvella are illustrated. The biology of Loxostege clathralis (Hübner, 1813), Epischidia fulvostrigella (Eversmann, 1844), B. imperialella and Pempeliella bulgarica Slamka & Plant, 2016 is described based on observation by the third author in Crimea. Salicornia perenanns Willd. is recorded as a new host plant for G. gilvella and Halocnemum strobilaceum (Pall.) M. Bieb.—as a new host plant for E. fulvostrigella. Epischidia caesariella (Hampson in Ragonot & Hampson, 1901) and Pempeliella sororiella (Zeller, 1839) are removed from the list of Pyralidae of Ukraine due to misidentification.

An annotated list of new records of 45 weevil species is provided. Hadroplontus litura, Larinus iaceae, Magdalis exarata, Pissodes validirostris, Stereocorynes truncorum, Platystomos albinus, Nanophyes globiformis, Ceutorhynchus dubius, and Dorytomus suratus are registered in Ukrainian Polesia for the first time. 34 species are recorded in the west part of Volynian Polesia (= Volyn Region) for the first time. Total known richness of weevils in Volyn Region is increased by 9%. Currently, the list of Curculionoideae inhabiting Volyn Region includes 386 species and subspecies. Additional data on 11 species rare in Ukraine are given. The west range limit of Asproparthenis foveocollis is extended to Volyn Polesia. Discovery of Asproparthenis vexata in Volyn Polesia confirms coexistence of specific insect assemblages associated with endemic psammophilous flora. An alien Lygniodes bischoffi entered into Ukrainian Polesia presumably from Poland. The hornbeam, Carpinus betulus was detected as a new host plant of Cossonus cylindricus for the first time.

The first records of six Anastrepha species are reported for the state of Paraná, Brazil, namely A. amita Zucchi, 1979; A. barnesi Aldrich, 1925; A. consobrina (Loew, 1873); A. manihoti Lima, 1934; A. morvasi Uramoto & Zucchi, 1999; and A. punctata Hendel, 1914. Citharexylum solanaceum Cham. (Verbenaceae) is recorded as a new host plant for A. amita, and Inga vera Willd. (Fabaceae) as new host plant for A. distincta. With these new records the number of species of Anastrepha recorded from Paraná is increased from 15 to 21.

AbstractAraucaria trees as host plants of the longhorned beetle Huequenia livida (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in Argentina are reviewed. Araucaria araucana is its natural host plant in SW Argentina, but the larvae also developed in dead branches of A. angustifolia and A. bidwillii (new host plant records), when both plants were kept in the same rearing cage with the natural host plant. Pinus contorta var. murrayana, also mentioned from Argentina, may be a recently adopted secondary host. A winter and a summer generation of H. livida was documented for the first time. Huequenia livida exceeds the actual natural distribution of A. araucana following the distribution of cultivated A. araucana and Pinus trees.

Abstract New records of eleven rare species of Lepidoptera are given from Poland. Stigmella naturnella (KLIMESCH, 1936) (Nepticulidae) has been recorded in Poland for the first time. Surprisingly, this nepticulid was found in an artificial ecosystem - a city park. The occurrence of Scrobipalpula tussilaginis (FREY, 1867) and Ephysteris inustella (ZELLER, 1847) in Poland has been confirmed after over a century. Salix caprea L. is given as the first reliable record of a host plant for the larva of Teleiodes flavimaculella, and Betula pubescens EHRH. is found to be a new host plant of Stigmella naturnella.

The apple maggot, Rhagoletis pomonella (Walsh), is an indigenous North American insect whose principal native host is hawthome, Crataegus (Bush 1966). During the past ca. 120 years, this insect has expanded its host range to include fruits of the following introduced plants: apple, Malus sp. (Walsh 1867); domestic plum, Prunus sp. (Herrick 1920); sour cherry, Prunus cerasus L. (Shervis et al. 1970); apricot, Prunus armeniaca L. (Lienk 1970); and pear, Pyrus sp. (Prokopy and Bush 1972). Continuous populations have been established on apple and sour cherry, but apparently only occasional infestations occur on plum, apricot, and pear. Here, we report yet another new host of the apple maggot: the introduced rose hip, Rosa rugosa Thunberg

New records of Tachinidae flies parasitizing Mesomphaliini species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cassidinae) collected in the Neotropical region. We provided the first records of parasitism of Cyrtonota thalassina (Boheman, 1850), Botanochara sp. and Paraselenis flava (Linnaeus, 1758) by species of Eucelatoria Townsend, 1909 (Blondeliini) and parasitism of P. flava by a species of Voria Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 (Voriini). A species of Eucelatoria parasitizing Chelymorpha sp. is recorded for Brazil for the first time. New host plant records are provided: C. thalassina on Ipomoea saopaulista O’Donell and P. flava on I. aristolochiifolia G. Don.

The Neotropical bryocorine plant bug, Sysinas centralis Distant, is reported for the first time in Central America, based in one male specimen collected in Guatemala. Additional new records include Cuba, Jamaica, and Brazil. A redescription of adults, figures of habitus, male and female genitalia, color pattern variations, geographic distribution, and a new host plant are provided. Diagnostic characters are provided to distinguish this species from others in the same genus.
