A new genus and two new species of Eremoneura are described from mid-Cretaceous amber of the Charentes region, in south-western France. Chimeromyia vulloi sp. nov., from early Cenomanian amber of Fouras, is the first record of Chimeromyiidae from France. It extends the geographical distribution of this family, which was hitherto known only from Cretaceous ambers of Lebanon, Spain, and Myanmar. A key to all known species of Chimeromyia is provided. Additionally, a specimen from latest Albian–earliest Cenomanian amber from Archingeay, which was studied using synchrotron imaging, is described as Francomyina incomparabilis gen. et sp. nov., and is left unassigned to family within Eremoneura. The affinities of both new species are discussed.

Species Descriptions

We review the family Histriobdellidae and provide species descriptions and notes on geographical distribution based on data from the literature. The morphological structures used in the systematics of this family are defined. A new genus, Dayus, is proposed and two new species from Brazil, Stratiodrilus robustus and S. circensis, are described.

Two New Species

Three species of nematodes were collected from some Malayan frogs and toads. Two of these are bursate nematodes, one of which belongs to a new genus for which the nameBatrachostrongylusgen. nov. is proposed. The genusBatrachostrongylushas structural features of both the families Strongylidae and Trichostrongylidae. The other bursate nematode, namelyOswaldocruzia hoeppliiHsu is widely distributed in the Far East and this is the first record from the Malaysian region. This species shows considerable variation throughout its range. Another new species,Abbreviata bufonissp. nov. is from Bufo asper Boulenger. Although the larval form ofAbbreviata ranae(Walton), the only representative of the genus in Amphibia has been recorded from U.S.A., this is the first record of an adultAbbreviataparasitic in Amphibia.

Photographs and detailed morphological descriptions including the male genitalia of R. hainanensis sp. n. and R. disparis sp. n. are given. For comparison, the photos of habitus and male genitalia of a closely related species, R. annamensis (Hanitsch, 1927) are provided. A key to all species of Rhabdoblattella is provided.

This paper describes a new genus, two new species and new records of subterranean gastropods from the Sabinas and Álamos River, Coahuila, and the Nazas River, Durango, in northern Mexico. Phreatomascogosgregoigen. n. et sp. n. from Don Martín Basin, Coahuila, is described based on shells and opercula that show some morphological similarities with shells of Phreatodrobia Hershler & Longley, 1986 (Lithoglyphidae), which is a subterranean genus from neighboring area in Texas, United States. Conchologically, the new genus can be distinguished from Phreatodrobia and all other subterranean genera by a unique combination of characteristic shell morphology and opercula apomorphies. Balconorbissabinasensesp. n. (Cochliopidae) is the second species of this genus, which was previously known only from caves and associated subterranean habitats in Texas. The new record of Coahuilixparrasense, Czaja, Estrada-Rodríguez, Romero-Méndez, Ávila-Rodríguez, Meza-Sánchez & Covich, 2017 (Cochliopidae) from Durango and Coahuila is the first record of extant member of this genus out of its hitherto known habitat in the Cuatro Ciénegas basin, Coahuila. These records are remarkable because C.parrasense had been described recently as a fossil species. Shell morphologies of the new subterranean snails could be interpreted as possible evolutional adaptations to different hydrodynamic and other specific conditions in their habitat.

In this paper, one new genus, Ptosoproctus gen. nov., is established with two new species: P. lanzhouensis sp. nov. and P. baishishanicus sp. nov., described and illustrated based on material collected from northern China. The genus Eulithoxenus Bey-Bienko, 1951 is recorded from China for the first time. E. emeljanovi Mishchenko, 1968 is redescribed. Supplemental description of Uvarovina chinensis Ramme, 1939 is provided. COI and ND2 genes of the three Chinese Drymadusini genera mentioned above were used to reconstruct the phylogenetic tree. Molecular result support the validation of the new genus.

We identified nine species of phylactolaemate bryozoans collected from ponds and dams on Okinawa Island, Japan. This is the first report on freshwater bryozoans from Okinawa and includes the first record of Plumatella javanica from Japan. Phylactolaemate species were identified on the basis of colony and statoblast morphology and are illustrated by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). We detected two new plumatellid species that, like Plumatella minuta and Plumatella vorstmani, have a transparent, weakly chitinized colony and hypertubercles on the floatoblast fenestra. A previous molecular study showed these four species to form a clade separate from Plumatella and Hyalinella. We here establish the new genus Rumarcanella to accommodate these species and describe Rumarcanella gusuku n. sp. and R. yanbaruensis n. sp. We discuss the dispersal of bryozoans to and from Japan by birds carrying statoblasts and provide a key to the Phylactolaemata of Japan.

Abstract The first known representatives of the family Cantharidae are described from Socotra: Silidius svihlai sp. nov. and Socotrasilis enigmatica gen. et sp. nov. Dorsal habitus, pronotum and aedeagus for each species are illustrated. Both species seem phylogenetically isolated, with no known close relatives.
