A taxonomic revision of the flea beetle genus <em>Diphaulacosoma</em> Jacoby, endemic to Madagascar, is provided. This genus includes seven species of which three are new to science: <em>D. elegans</em> sp. n., <em>D. jenisi</em> sp. n., and <em>D. nigroscutis</em> sp. n. An updated catalogue including new material, new faunistic records, distributions, chorotypes, and ecological notes is supplied. Lectotypes for <em>Diphaulacosoma</em> <em>laevipenne</em> Jacoby, <em>D. bicolor</em> (Weise) and <em>D. scutellare</em> (Weise) are designated. Additionally, the revision comprises a key for the identification of all seven species considered, habitus photos, and microscope and scanning electron micrographs of diagnostic characters, including aedeagus and spermatheca.

Abstract Three new species of the flower bug genus Orius Wolff, 1811 (Anthocorinae: Oriini) are described as new, namely Orius (Orius) ekaii sp. nov., O. (Orius) nigromaritus sp. nov., and O. (Xylorius) paveli sp. nov., all from Nepal. The plant association and habitat are documented for each new species. Habitus images of live individuals and scanning electron micrographs are also provided to aid in proper recognition of their identities. A checklist of Orius species known from South Asia (SAARC nations) is incorporated; Orius indicus (Reuter, 1884) is herein placed in the subgenus Dimorphella Reuter, 1884.

AbstractA key to the genera of Scelionidae of the Holarctic region is given. Sixty-seven genera are recognized in three subfamilies, viz. Telenominae, Teleasinae, and Scelioninae. Seven new genera and six new species are described from America north of Mexico, viz. Aradoctonus armatus n. gen. and n. sp. (Telenominae, Telenomini), Embioctonus setiger n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Embidobiini), Epigryon audax n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Gryonini), Exon californicum n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Gryonini), Harringtonia n. gen. for Baryconus cinctus Harrington (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini), Mecix texana n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini), and Spiniteleia campbelli n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini). The Nearctic and Palearctic faunas of Scelionidae are compared, analyzed, and tabulated on generic level. Twenty-eight plates with 207 scanning electron micrographs and line drawings are included.

Three new species of Calliandra section Monticola are described and illustrated: C. bromelioides, C. lewisii and C. oroboensis. All of them are endemic to the Chapada Diamantina, Bahia, Brazil. In addition we present a study of the pollen morphology using light microscopy and scanning electron micrographs. An identification key for the three new species and the most morphologically similar species in section Monticola is also provided.

Three new freshwater diatoms are described from China’s Yunnan Plateau region in sediments from Lakes Fuxian, Erhai, and Lugu. Navicula craticuloides, nov. sp., N. gongii, nov. sp. and N. yunnanensis, nov. sp. were identified from light and scanning electron micrographs. The main features of N. craticuloides are its valve outline with rounded ends, a narrow-lateral raphe, hooked terminal fissures, a linear axial area, a rectangular central area, and wavy striae towards the margins. The main features of N. gongii are narrowly lanceolate valves with long-protracted ends, a lateral raphe, a slightly curved axial area, and a rhombic or transversely expanded central area. The main features of N. yunnanensis are lanceolate valves with triundulate margins and cuneate ends and a lateral raphe. The new species have so far been found mainly in surficial sediment.

AbstractA review of Nearctic Apotomis Hübner (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae: Olethreutini) is presented. Seventeen species are recognized, of which the following are new: coloradensis, trifida, and spurinfida. Apotomis strigosa Heinrich, 1926 is considered a new synonym of tertiana McDunnough, 1922, and dextrana McDunnough, 1923 of removana Kearfott, 1907. Descriptions, distribution maps, and a key to species are provided. Illustrations of male and female genitalia and photographs of distinctive wing patterns are included. Scanning electron micrographs reveal that setae on digitus of male genitalia are taxonomically important.

Mycetocylapus Poppius, Proamblia Bergroth, Rhinocylapidius Poppius, and Rhinocylapus Poppius are revised. Three new species of Rhinocylapus: Rh. kmentii, Rh. pallescens, and Rh. redeii spp. nov. are described from the Malaysia, Philippines, and Indonesian Borneo, respectively. Rhinocylapidius velocipedoides Poppius is restored to its original genus. The lectotype for Proamblia cunealis (Poppius) is designated. Dorsal habitus color photographs of all species, scanning electron micrographs of the species of each genus, and pictures of male genitalia are provided. Keys to all the taxa are presented.
