The family Eosentomidae from Japan is revised. A new genus, Osientomon, is erected and a new species is ascribed to this genus. This new genus is characterized by the short, setiform sensillum g, absence of sensilla e and b'1 on foretarsus, and S-shaped processus sternalis and duck’s head type caput processus on the female squama genitalis. Two new species are added to the genus Pseudanisentomon and 19 new species and 1 new record of the genus Eosentomon are described. As a result, 43 species belonging to 4 genera are now recognized from Japan. Taxonomic keys are provided for the identification of the genera and species from Japan.

A New Species

1. A new species of Bothriocephalus—B. pycnomerus—is described from the intestine of Ophiocephalus marulius Ham. Buch., from the Ganges and Jumna at Allahabad, India.2. B. pycnomerus closely resembles B. histiophorus (Shipley 1901; from the marine sword-fish Histiophorus) in structure but differs chiefly in the possession of an armed scolex and its crowded indistinct segmentation.3. Lühe's definition of the genus Bothriocephalus must be amended to include forms with armed scolices and forms in which the ventral uterine apertures are a-median and irregularly alternate.4. Two new species of Proteocephalidae are described which possess armed muscular rostella, and for these a new genus Gangesia is created and defined. The definitions of the Order Tetraphyllidea (Lühe 1910) and of the Family Proteocephalidae (La Rue 1914) must be amended to include forms possessing muscular rostella, armed or unarmed.5. These two new species—Gangesia wallago and G. macrones—were found in the intestines of Wallago attu Bleek and Macrones seenghala Sykes (both Siluroids) respectively, from the Ganges and Jumna at Allahabad.6. Southwell's “Ophryocotyle bengalensis,” from Ophiocephalus striatus, Labeo rohita and Wallago attu, is probably identical with Gangesia wallago.

A new genus and two new species of eriophyoid mites in the family Diptilomiopidae associated with Spondias mombin L. (Anacardiaceae), namely Solivagus n. gen. alpha n. sp. and Davisella spondias n. sp., are described. In addition, a new species of Eriophyidae associated with Eugenia uniflora L. (Myrtaceae), namely Dichopelmus ibapitanga n. sp., is described and Aculus pitangae Boczek & Davis, also from E. uniflora, is redescribed including a description of the male, and its classification is discussed. All material studied was collected in the State of Pernambuco, Northeastern Brazil.

A New Species

A new genus of parasitic copepod, Paranoplodelphys, is established in the family Notodelphyidae to accommodate a new, highly reduced species, P. simplex n. gen. et n. sp., collected from a tunicate host, Didemnum dicolla in Djibouti. The new genus retains only four paired limbs: antennules, legs 1, 2 and 5. Two new species of Anoplodelphys, A. afri-cana and A.laubieri, are described from tunicate hosts of the genus Didemnum collected in the Gulf of Suez and off the Kwazulu-Natal coast, respectively. A new species of Achelidelphys, A. papuensis, is described from a Didemnum species host collected off Papua New Guinea. New records are also reported for Anoplodelphys corneci and Achelidelphys steinitzi also from tunicate hosts. After re-examination of type material of most species, a phylogenetic analysis of relationships between the genera of the Brementia-group was performed using PAUP. This identified four main clades: Brementia, Anoplodelphys, Paranoplodelphys and the Achelidelphys-clade. There was no support for the continued recognition of Cephalodelphys and Syndelphys as valid separate genera, and it is proposed to treat as them synonyms of Achelidelphys. Both genera were monotypic and upon transfer Cephalodelphys stellata Lafargue & Laubier, 1977 becomes Achelidelphys stellata (Lafargue and Laubier, 1977) n. comb. and Syndelphys reducta Lafargue and Laubier, 1977 becomes Achelidelphys reducta (Lafargue and Laubier, 1977) n. comb.

Through the kindness of Dr. E. W. Baker of the Entomology Research Division, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and Dr. J. F. G. Clarke of the U.S. National Museum, Smithsonian Institution, I was provided with a number of mites of the family Cheyletidae. Among these were specimens of two new species representing a new genus, and a new species of Cheletominus Oudemans, formerly monotypic.

Land Planarian

The Brazilian land planarians Cratera crioula, C. joia, Geoplana hina, and G. taxiarcha (Platyhelminthes, Tricladida, Geoplanidae) are revised taxonomically from type material and additional specimens. Geoplana hina sensu Carbayo et al. (2013) was found to be an undescribed species and therefore is described and named as Cratera picuia sp. n. A new species of the genus is also described and named as Cratera arucuia sp. n. G. hina and G. taxiarcha are transferred to Cratera. The most remarkable morphological feature of Cratera—a dilated terminal portion of the ejaculatory duct—is either absent, inconspicuous, or variable in C. hina, C. joia, C. picuia sp. n., and C. arucuia sp. n. Based on the monophyletic status of Cratera inferred elsewhere, an emendation of the genus is here proposed to encompass the morphological variation observed in the genus.
