The family Colomastigidae is represented on the Great Barrier Reef by a total of six species, all members of the genus Colomastix, three of which are new to science. Ranges of the three known species, C. japonica Bulycheva, 1955, C. lunalilo J.L. Barnard, 1970 and C. plumosa Ledoyer, 1979, are extended to include the Great Barrier Reef. Of the three new species, two are found only on the Reef and the third also occurs near Port Jackson, New South Wales. All six species are fully described and illustrated.

Three New Species

The Australian Pangoniini include the most primitive known Tabanidae. Most are low-flying insects, which do not suck blood. They show progressive reduction in mandibles of the female, divisions of the third antenna1 segment, and hind tibia1 spurs. Their principal distribution is east coastal, from Torres Strait to southern New South Wales; there is a secondary centre of evolution in Western Australia; they are not known from Tasmania. Eighteen species are recognized, distributed among seven genera and subgenera, as follows: Austroplex, 3; Ectenopsis (Ectenopsis), 4; Ectenopsis (Parasilvius), 4; Ectenopsis (Leptonopsis), 2; Caenoprosopon, 4; Therevopangonia, 1. Three new species are described from Western Australia: Ectenopsis (?Ectenopsis) occidentalis, B ; Ectenopsis (Parasilvius) fusca, B, @ ; Ectenopsis (Leptonopsis) norrisi, B .

Morphological Investigations

Three new myxomycete species, Tubifera glareata, T. tomentosa and T. vanderheuliae, are described on the basis of morphological investigations and the partial 18S rDNA barcoding. Tubifera vanderheuliae, collected in Tasmania and New South Wales, is characterized by small, bouquet-shaped pseudoaethalia, cylindrical sporothecae somewhat extended at the top, and the largest spores known thus far within the genus (7.5–10.5 μm). Tubifera glareata, found thus far only in Tasmania, is somewhat similar to T. applanata found in the Holarctic region, but differs from the latter by the larger spores, absence of ring-like ornamentation on the peridium, and the smaller subspherical pseudoaethalia. Tubifera tomentosa, also collected in Tasmania, differs from the related species T. dudkae by the conspicuous amorphous felt-like cover on the surface of the pseudoaethalia.

Three New Species

Parmelia (subgen. Xanthoparmelia) barbatica, Parmelia (subgen. Xanthoparmelia) burmeisterii and Parmelia (subgen. Xanthoparmelia) pseudohypoleia are described as new from the Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales. The former two species are the first representatives of this subgenus to be described in which usnic acid, barbatic acid and 4-O-demethylbarbatic acid are the major secondary metabolites.

Three New Species

A new genus, Wundacaenis, is erected for three new species of Australian caenid mayflies. The genus is diagnosed by possession of distinctive lobes on the anterolateral margins of the mesonotum. The distribution of Wundacaenis extends from the Kimberleys in Western Australia, through the Alligator Rivers Region in the Northern Territory, and down the eastern coast to the Shoalhaven River in New South Wales.

The Family

Four new species of the family Thanerocleridae are described from Australia (Queensland, New South Wales): Isoclerus (Isoclerus) rumcajs, I. (I.) manka, I. (I.) cipisek and I. (I.) gerstmeieri. These species are the first records of the family’s autochthonous members from the Australian continent. The subgenus Isoclerus (Lyctosoma) Lewis is synonymised with Isoclerus (Isoclerus) Lewis. Hypotheses concerning the biogeography of subtribe Isoclerina Kolibáÿč in which the newly described species belong, are proposed. The ancestral area of Isoclerina may be in Africa or somewhere in the region of Europe, Greenland and the eastern part of North America – in either case, in the Lower to Middle Cretaceous era. Also, pan-biogeographic hypotheses are formulated for the distribution patterns of species of the subgenus Isoclerus.

Two New Species

The discovery of a new genus of Heatherellidae in New Zealand has led us to revise this enigmatic family and its constituent genera. Aheatherella n. gen., based on A. mira n. sp. from the North Island of New Zealand, lacks some of the derived character states that link the Australian Heatherella, most notably the lack of sexual dimorphism in the dorsal shields and in the presence of peritremes in adult Aheatherella. Heatherella osleri n. sp. is described from New South Wales, extending the distribution of this genus beyond Queensland. New collection records of H. callimaulos and a key to the genera and species of the family are provided. We propose that the Heatherellidae—previously placed in its own cohort outside the Gamasina—are best considered a superfamily of gamasine mites within the subcohort Epicriiae.

Three New Species

Herein four new species of Lepidocyrtoides are described and illustrated: three from Brazilian Amazon, L. caeruleomaculatus sp. nov., L. colormutatus sp. nov. and L. bicolorangelus sp. nov., all similar to each other by macrochaetotaxy reduced; and L. hopkini sp. nov. from New South Wales, Australia. Lepidocyrtoides tapuia comb. nov. (Arlé & Guimarães) and L. villasboasi comb. nov. (Arlé & Guimarães) are redescribed and transferred from Lepidosira Schött due to projection of mesothorax over head and manubrial plate with blunt macrochaetae. Neotypes are designated to both species. The holotype of L. oliveri Liu, Chen & Greenslade is analyzed and details of the dorsal chaetotaxy are added. Keys to the five species of the genus from Brazil and six from Australia are provided. Lepidocyrtoides now is recorded from the New World, South and Southeast Asia and Oceania, and the records of Lepidosira in the American continent are excluded.

Four new species of Anatomidae are described: Anatoma herberti n. sp. with strong axial sculpture on the shoulder and base; A. austrolissa n. sp. with almost smooth sculpture except for axial cords in the adumbilical half of the base; A. boucheti n. sp. with sunken protoconch and selenizone that starts after more than one teleoconch I whorl; and A. fl exidentata n. sp. with a highly modifi ed radula, shared only with A. austrolissa, among known anatomid species. Three of the species are only known from the Indian Ocean, while the more deep-water A. austrolissa is known from Reunion Island and New South Wales, Australia. The radula of A. flexidentata and A. austrolissa is strikingly different from that of other Anatomidae and Vetigastropoda in that it has flexible equally-shaped teeth in the central field and filamentous teeth in the marginal fi eld. Similar radular morphologies are known from Calliostomatidae.
