Watanabesaruzo yunnanensis sp. nov. is described from Yunnan Province, China. It is a peculiar species of Watanabesaruzo Yoshitake et Yamauchi and represents a new record for the genus in China. The genus Watanabesaruzo was erected by Yoshitake and Yamauchi (2002) based on two species, W. taimeii and W. malayanus. A key to the three species is presented. The type specimen is deposited in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, China.

All types of Longchuanacris Zheng et Fu, 1989 are examined. Longchuanacris guangxiensis Zheng et Ren, 2007 is synonymized with Caryanda neoelegans Otte, D. 1995, and Longchuanacris bilobata Mao, Ren et Ou, 2007 is synonymized with L. macrofurcula Zheng et Fu, 1989; seventy three topotypes are designated for L. macrofurcula. Longchuanacris lobata Niu et Ou, sp. nov. and L. microfurcula Niu et Zheng, sp. nov. are described as new species. Six Longchuanacris species are keyed and their distributions are stated. These species are distributed in southwestern Yunnan, China. Type specimens are deposited in the Faculty of Conservation Biology, Southwest Forestry University (SWFU), Yunnan Province, China and in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China (IZCAS).

The genus Molpa Walker was previously considered to be disjunctly distributed in broad-leaf rain forests in India and Malaysia. Here we report one new species Molpa dulongensis sp. nov. from subtropic broad-leaf rain forests in southwestern Yunnan Province in China. This is a part of the Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspot area. So we can infer that Molpa is continuously distributed in broad-leaf rain forests found in Oriental Region. Redescription of the genus Molpa and description of the new species Molpa dulongensis sp. nov. are provided. The types are deposited in Insect Collection of Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China (IZCAS).

Guenée (1858) described the genus Thalassodes for T. pilaria Guenée from Loyality Island (Tahiti) and some allied species. Prout (1912) revised the genus, listing 32 taxa from the Old World, and later (Prout 1933) listed forty species and divided Thalassodes into four unnamed sections according to habitus and structure of the male legs. Holloway (1996) divided Thalasssodes into three genera using genitalic charactersa and grouped 16 species in genus Pelagodes Holloway (type species: Thalassodes aucta Prout, 1912). Scoble (1999) attributed 22 species to the genus. Later, Inoue (2003, 2005, 2006) revised collections from the Oriental region, describing ten additional species and a further distinct genus, Reniformvalva Inoue, 2006. Han and Xue (2011) added four new species to Pelagodes and found external similarities between P. clarifimbria and moths from Hainan in China, but postponed any differentiation due to limited material. Lindt, while identifying his emerald moths collected in Laos, noticed genitalic differences between brown-fronted Pelagodes specimens from Laos and Thailand, which are allopatric in Thailand. Here we present a comparative description of P. clarifimbria and a new species P. cancriformis. Institutional acronyms are as follows:. EMNH, Estonian Museum of Natural History, Tallinn, Estonia. IZBE, formerly in Institute of Zoology and Botany of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, now deposited in Estonian University of Life Sciences, Tartu, Estonia.
