Nearctic species of the genus Tropimenelytron Pace, 1983, a new genus for North America, are revised. Redescription and illustrations are provided for distinguishing the genus Tropimenelytron from other related aleocharine genera. Three new species are described: T. americanum Gusarov, sp. n., from Indiana, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut and Quebec; T. robustum Gusarov, sp. n., from Oregon and British Columbia and T. californicum Gusarov, sp. n. from California. A key for identification of Nearctic species of Tropimenelytron is provided. The status of the genus Pelioptera Kraatz, 1957 is discussed. Pelioptera unica (Bernhauer, 1907) from Japan and P. peguana (Bernhauer, 1915) from Burma are transferred to Tropimenelytron.

In recent years there has been a renewed interest in aphids, primarily as to their role in the dissemination of plant viruses. As a result many new species are being discovered, even on some of the more common plants. The notes and descriptions that follow arise from collections made in British Columbia.

Stratigraphic Range

Most species of the middle and late Hettangian psiloceratid genusSunrisitesare endemic to the eastern Pacific, where they are common members of ammonoid assemblages. the Taseko Lakes map area in British Columbia yields diverse and well-preservedSunrisitesfaunas which are formally described here for the first time. Three new species are recognized,S. brimblecombei, S. chilcotinensis, andS. senililevis.the new species require an extension of the morphological range of the genus to include forms that become moderately involute at large shell diameters. Signs of sexual dimorphism are apparent within all three new species ofSunrisites.This work extends the stratigraphic range ofSunrisitesto include the latest Hettangian Rursicostatum Zone in North America. The distribution ofSunrisitessuggests that the Hispanic Corridor, which linked the western Tethyan Ocean and the eastern Pacific, may have been open during the Hettangian. Furthermore, occurrences of the genus constrain the Hettangian position of several allochthonous terranes to the northeastern Pacific.

Three species of Pogonognathellus Paclt are described from eastern North America: P. belmontorum n. sp. from the southern Appalachians, Alabama and Florida, P. brevifulvus n. sp. from Massachusetts and Michigan, and P. magnibrunneus n. sp. from the southern Appalachians and New York. The first two species are members of the pale/grey clade and the third is a member of the longicornis clade. The setal complexes at the apices of the third and fourth antennal segments are described.

AbstractThe North American fauna of Alucitidae is shown to include three widespread species: Alucita montana Barnes et Lindsey, 1921 (nec Cockerell), Alucita adriendenisisp. nov. (type locality: Manitoulin Island, Ontario, Canada), and Alucitalalanneisp. nov. (type locality: Maynooth, Ontario, Canada). Alucita hexadactyla (L., 1758) and A. huebneri Wallengren, 1862 do not occur in North America. The three North American species are described and illustrated. Alucita montana is found from southwestern Quebec and Vermont, west to British Columbia, and south to Arizona, California, and Texas; its caterpillar is associated with Symphoricarpos spp. (Caprifoliaceae). Alucita adriendenisi is known from northwestern Quebec and New York, west to Alberta and the Northwest Territories, with more southern populations (isolated?) in West Virginia, Arizona, and Texas; its caterpillar feeds on flowers of Lonicera dioica L. (Caprifoliaceae) in Michigan. Alucita lalannei has been found in Ontario, Manitoba, and Alberta, Canada; its host plant is unknown.

Lepidoptera Noctuidae

The genus Rhabdorthodesgen. n. is described for three previously unnamed noctuid moths from the mountains of south-western United States and Mexico. It is assigned to subfamily Noctuinae, tribe Eriopygini. Rhabdorthodespattersonisp. n. from the United States and Rhabdorthodesdurangosp. n. and Rhabdorthodespetersonisp. n. from Mexico are described. These moths are small, dull gray brown, and lack highly diagnostic wing markings, but are distinctive structurally. The adults and genitalia of both sexes are illustrated and distribution maps are presented. Two species eponyms honor persons who have facilitated the study and enjoyment of moths in North America by creating moth-specific websites.

The three species of Myriophyllum occurring naturally in South America (M. aquaticum, M. quitense and M. mattogrossensis) are keyed and described. M. quitense is an earlier legitimate name for the plant generally known as M. elatinoides, a species until now thought to extend from South America into North America, New Zealand and Australia. Plants of 'M. elatinoides' in North America and Australia have been critically re-examined, and the status of closely related taxa has been reconsidered. It has been found that, in North America, M. quitense exists as two isolated populations in Arizona and Oregon. The status of M. spicatum, M. exalbescens and M. magdalenense, the three previously described species of the 'elatinoides' complex is discussed, and it is suggested that two varieties should be recognized, M. spicatum var. spicatum and M. spicatum var. exalbescens. M. magdalenense is considered to be a minor variant of M. spicatum var. spicatum. Aus- tralian plants known until now as M. elatinoides are shown to be distinct from M. quitense, and to constitute three new species, M. salsugineum, M. caput-medusae and M. porcatum, which are here described.

Three New Species

Despite being reported widely from basal Sunwaptan strata, Dellea? punctata Palmer, 1965, is known from only four figured cranidia. New material from Nevada, Utah and Oklahoma, including librigenae and pygidia, indicate that specimens assigned previously to D.? punctata are best interpreted as a complex of related species that are assigned to a new genus, Bartonaspis. This genus is diagnosed by punctate sculpture, a pair of fossulae at the anterior corners of the glabella, and by a subelliptical pygidium with a short convex axis composed of three segments. Three new species, B. fredericksoni, B. palmeri, and B. wilsoni, are described and B. punctata (Palmer) is restricted to its holotype. Bartonaspis is known only from the Irvingella major Zone, and its first appearance defines the base of the Sunwaptan Stage. Dellea Wilson, 1949, is related to Bartonaspis and is differentiated from it primarily by pygidial morphology. In contrast to Bartonaspis, the pygidium of Dellea has an axis composed of four, rather than three, segments and a narrow concave border.

The Status

The eucoiline genus Preseucoela Buffington is described. Also provided is a redescription of Preseucoela pallidipes (Ashmead), new combination, and the descriptions of Preseucoela heratyi Buffington, new species, and Preseucoela imallshookupis Buffington new species. One definitive rearing record was found, and indicates hosts for species of Preseucoela are agromyzid flies. Agrostocynips Diaz, another eucoiline genus parasitic on agromyzids, is discussed. Agrostocynips robusta (Ashmead), new combination, and Agrostocynips diastrophi (Ashmead), new combina- tion, are proposed, raising the number of recognized species of Agrostocynips to four, and expanding the range of Agrostocynips into central North America.
