A new species of the spider genusLoxoscelesHeineken & Lowe, 1832,Loxoscelesmalintzisp. n., is described from the states of Puebla, Morelos and Guerrero, in the central region of Mexico. The description is based on adult males and females with morphological and ultra-morphological images. Updated distribution maps are provided for the 39 species recorded from the Mexican territory (including the new species). The states with the greatest diversity are Baja California Sur, Baja California and Sonora, with five species each. A total of 441 records for the 39 species, based on arachnological collections, data bases and literature, were used to update the distribution maps.LoxoscelesbonetiGertsch, 1958 is the species with the highest number of records in Mexico, with a total of 58 records from different localities. The states with the most records so far are Guerrero, with 55 records, Morelos, with 35 records, and Baja California Sur, with 30 records.Loxoscelesrufescens(Dufour, 1820), an introduced species, is recorded for the second time in Mexico, from the state of Chihuahua, being the first well-documented record for the country. Mexico has the greatest diversity of species ofLoxoscelesworldwide, with 39 (two introduced species) of the 134 described species.

A New Species

Dasybranchetus pacifica, collected in Concepcion Bay, Baja California Sur, Gulf of California, is described as a new species. In addition, the type species of the genus, Dasybranchetus fauveli Monro, 1931, is redescribed based on type material. The new species differs from D. fauveli in the absence of branchiae, the begining of the mid-dorsal lobe from chaetiger 2 instead of chaetiger 9, abdominal segments with well-developed neuropodial lobes, and hooded hooks with a main fang and three rows of subapical teeth in the following arrangement: 4 teeth in the basal line, 3 in the middle line, and 2 in the apical line.

A New Species

A new genus of Antillocorini, Pulmomerus, and a new species Pulmomerus levatus from Baja California Sur aredescribed. This species with reduced hemelytra is characterized by the presence of spines on the fore femora, the veryelevated connexiva, the absence of metathoracic wings, and a peculiar and unique spermatheca. Specimens were foundunder leaf litter of Ficus palmeri, which represents another record of Rhyparochromidae associated with figs in Mexico, and a probably endemic species from Cabo Pulmo National Park.

A New Species

Acmaeodera jeanae, sp. nov., is described from Oaxaca in southern Mexico, and is compared with A. scapularis Horn, 1894 from Baja California Sur, Mexico and A. mixteca Westcott, 1998 from Oaxaca and Puebla, Mexico. A checklist of the species of Acmaeodera known from Mexico, including Baja California is provided. Notes describe the predatory behavior of Cerceris grandis Banks (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) upon Gyascutus planicostus (LeConte), 1858 and predation by Cerceris californica Cresson upon Acmaeodera maculifera Horn, 1894. A new adult host plant is noted for Acmaeodera recticollis Fall, 1899. The genus Squamodera Nelson, 1996, and the four species and synonyms included therein, are transferred to the genus Acmaeodera as a subgenus. Acmaeodera loei Manley, 1987 is recorded from Mexico for the first time.
