Two New Species

Ptychocroca, new genus, is described and illustrated. As presently defined, the genus includes eight species: P. apenicillia, new species, from Chile; P. nigropenicillia, new species, from Chile; P. lineabasalis, new species, from Chile; P. keelioides, new species, from Chile; P. simplex, new species, from Chile; P. crocoptycha (Meyrick), new combination, from Argentina and Chile; P. wilkinsoni (Butler), new combination, from Chile; and P. galenia (Razowski), new combination, from Chile. We present brief diagnoses for the related genera Apotomops Powell and Obraztsov, Bonagota Razowski, Haemateulia Razowski, and Acmanthina Brown, along with descriptions of two new species of Apotomops (A. boliviana and A. spomotopa, new species). We also propose two new combinations, Apotomops carchicola (Razowski and Becker) and A. sololana (Razowski), and the synonymy of Bonagota cranaodes (Meyrick) with B. salubricola (Meyrick).

AbstractThe taxonomic status of the nine species of the mostly Neotropical genus Macrocerides Borgmeier is reviewed after the holotypes of seven species are examined. Macrocerides anacleti Borgmeier, M. brevicornis Borgmeier, and M. luteus Borgmeier are transferred to Myriophora Brown (new combinations). Macrocerides neivai Borgmeier is transferred to Apocephalus (new combination), creating a homonym with Apocephalus neivai Borgmeier for which the replacement name A. elizaldae is proposed. The African Macrocerides leydheckeri Schmitz is placed in a new genus, Macrocerophora. Tauricornus, a new subgenus of Macrocerides, is proposed for a monophyletic group that includes M. (T.) abaristalis Borgmeier, M. (T). attophilus Disney, and two new species, M. (T.) taurocephalus from southern Texas, United States of America, and M. (T.) borkenti from Costa Rica to northern South America.

Two New Species

Recent survey work for planthoppers at La Selva Biological Station in Costa Rica found two new species allied with Cenchrea Westwood. The cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and 18S were sequenced for the new taxa and used these data to assess the genus-level standing of the new taxa. The new taxa do not cluster with Cenchrea dorsalis Westwood, the type species of Cenchrea. A new genus Tico gen. n. described for the reception of new species described as Tico emmettcarri sp. n. (the type species) and Tico pseudosororius sp. n. Cenchrea sororia Fennah is moved to Tico gen. n., to form the new combination Tico sororius (Fennah). Tico gen. n. is compared with allied genera, and review genus-level diagnostic features and the species composition of Cenchrea, which appears to be compositionally heterogenous, but additional data is needed to evaluate genus-level placement of most species.

Five other new species and their sites are noted but not enough specimens were available for adequate descriptions.

First Time

The Hymenophyllaceae of Queensland are revised following examination of material of all types based on Australian specimens, the unstudied collections made by the 1948 Archbold Cape York Expedition and extensive recent collections by the author. The new combination Hymenophyllum subgenus Chilodium (Didymoglossum subgenus Chilodium Presl) is made; two new species, Hymenophyllum eboracense and Macroglena brassii, are described; and five new combinations proposed: Hymenophyllum novoguineense (H. blumeanum var. novoguineensis Rosenst.), H. polyanthos var. contiguum [H. contiguum D. A. Smith) Tindale], Crepidomanes kurzli* (Trichomanes kurzii Bedd.), Crepidomanes barnardianum subsp. christii [Crepidomanes christii (Copel.) Copel.], and Crepidomanes bipunctatum var, venulosum [Crepidomanes venulosum (Rosenst.) Copel.]. Another species, Reediella endlicheriana is recorded from the Australian mainland for the first time and 42 of the 46 species of Australian Hymenophyllaceae are recognized to occur in Queensland.

Bicaubittacus gen. nov., the second genus of the family Bittacidae from the Oriental Region, is erected with Bittacus appendiculatus Esben-Petersen, 1927 as its type species. A key to the 17 extant genera of Bittacidae is compiled to include the new genus. Two new species, Bicaubittacus yangi sp. nov. and Bi. mengyangicus sp. nov. are described and illustrated from China. Three new combinations, Bicaubittacus appendiculatus (Esben-Petersen, 1927) and Bi. longiprocessus (Huang & Hua, 2005) from China, and Bi. burmanus (Tjeder, 1974) from Myanmar (formerly Burma), are transferred from the genus Bittacus Latreille. A key to the five species of Bicaubittacus is provided. The validity of Neobittacus and Thyridates is briefly discussed

Two new genera and three species of the Pantheinae are described. The genus Flavala gen. n. (type-species Acronycta flavala Moore, 1867) is separated from Anacronicta Warren, 1909. The new combination Flavala flavala (Moore, 1867) comb. n. is introduced. Two new species, Flavala crypta sp. n. and F. secunda sp. n. are described based on the result of barcoding of mitochondrial DNA. The new genus Xizanga gen. n. (type-species Xizanga mysterica sp.n.) is tentatively placed in Pantheinae.

Two New Species

Cleicosta, a new genus of Phengodidae containing two new species, C. equatoreana sp. nov., and C. monaguense sp. nov., are described. Additionally, a new combination for Cenophengus breviplumatus Wittmer, 1976 is included. Cleicosta gen. nov., is the thirty-eighth genus assigned to the beetle family Phengodidae in the new world and is also the most morphologically similar to Cenophengus LeConte, 1881. Both genera exhibit clearly separated tentorial pits, vertical frons and simple tarsomeres. In Cleicosta gen. nov., however, the antennal rami are 1.5 times longer than the corresponding antennomere, the pronotum is subquadrate and the elytra are short, reaching the first or second abdominal segment. In addition, it presents an aedeagus with lateral lobes slender, parallel exteriorly, narrowed medially to toothless apex.
