Epimeria schiaparelli sp. nov. from the Ross Sea, Antarctica, is described in detail. The new species occurs on the shelf in 130–350 m depth. Epimeria schiaparelli can be distinguished from the most similar species, E. similis Chevreux, 1912 and E. macrodonta Walker, 1906 by a relatively short rostrum and a short second pereonite amongst other characters. Two distinct colour patterns are reported. Partial gene sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) from 11 specimens of E. schiaparelli confirm that this species is new to science and closely related to E. similis, E. macrodonta and E. reoproi. The recent and historical separation of this Antarctic species is discussed. The syntypes of E. macrodonta consist of two species, so a lectotype is here designated.

Members of the whitefly Bemisia tabaci species complex cause millions of dollars of damage globally and are considered one of the world’s most invasive species. They are capable of causing extensive damage to major vegetable, grain legume and fiber crops. All member of the species complex are morphologically identical therefore, data from the partial mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (mtCOI) gene sequence has been used to identify the various species. The current reference dataset that is widely used is found on the CSIRO data portal. However, the reference set stored on the CSIRO data does not include newly added sequences (2013-2017), therefore an updated reference dataset is needed.  All mtCOI data for the Bemisia tabaci species complex were downloaded on 22 May 2017 from GenBank and after quality checking, a dataset of 1,071 unique sequences and 696 base pairs was generated (https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.5437420.v1).

Abstract A male of Chromatomyia aizoon (Hering, 1932) (Diptera: Agromyzidae) was reared from a leaf mine at Saxifraga paniculata collected in Štramberk (Northern Moravia, Czech Republic). Partial sequence of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI barcode region, 658 bp) is also provided.

A New Species

Abstract This study dealt with three species of ornamental palaemonid freshwater prawns of the genus Macrobrachium, based on morphological and molecular analysis. Macrobrachium pentazona He, Gao & Guo, 2009; M. laevis Zheng, Chen & Guo, 2019; and M. bilineare sp. nov. are distinguishable from closely related species by segmental ratios, spination of the second pereiopods and the slender scaphocerite. Macrobrachium bilineare sp. nov. can easily be recognized in the field by its bright colour pattern. Molecular evidence of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI), also supports the characterization of this new species, raising the total number of Macrobrachium spp. known from China to 41. Detailed description, illustrations, colour photographs, habitat information, distribution maps and features of conservation significance are also briefly discussed.

Sarcophaga Meigen, 1826 is proposed as a senior synonym of Cornexcisia Fan & Kano, 2000, syn. nov. and Fanzideia Xue, Verves & Du, 2011, syn. nov. Cornexcisia Fan & Kano, 2000, stat. rev. is given status as a subgenus and is considered a senior synonym of Fanzideia Xue, Verves & Du, 2011, syn. nov. at the subgeneric level. Cornexcisia is argued to contain S. (Cornexcisia) longicornuta (Fan & Kano, 2000), comb. nov., S. (C.) cygnocerca (Xue, Verves & Du, 2011), comb. nov., S. (C.) kurahashii (Shinonaga & Tumrasvin, 1979), subgen. comb. nov. (from Phallosphaera Rohdendorf) and S. (C.) suthep Pape & Bänziger, 2003, subgen. comb. nov. (from Rosellea Rohdendorf). Sarcophaga (C.) kurahashii is newly recorded from China (Yunnan), the male is redescribed and the female is described for the first time, supported by photographs, illustrations and mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene sequences. Species of Cornexcisia share an exceptionally long postpedicel in the female and the following apomorphic distiphallic appendages in the male: juxta ventro-proximally with an apically divided arm with cuticular pile, and lateral styli bifurcated from the base with each branch elongate, gently curved and slightly expanded apically. A key to the species of Cornexcisia is provided.
