We describe a new species of the genus Lygosoma from northeastern Cambodia based on a single voucher specimen col-lected from Veun Sai Proposed Protected Forest, Veun Sai District, Ratanakiri Province. Lygosoma veunsaiensis sp. nov.is differentiated from all congeners occurring in mainland Southeast Asia by the combination of the following characters:outer ear opening absent; supranasals distinct and separated from each other by frontonasal; supranasals not fused withnasals; midbody scales in 22 rows; fontoparietals paired; five supralabials; a light stripe present on outer edge of the dor-sum; and a dark dorsolateral stripe present, from behind the eye to the tail. A key to the Southeast Asian mainland species of Lygoma is provided.

Kryptopterus geminus, a new species of silurid catfish is described from the Bang Pakong, Mekong, Mae Khlong and Chao Phraya River drainages in mainland Southeast Asia. Kryptopterus geminus, together with K. cryptopterus, can be distinguished from congeners by the dorsal profile lacking a nuchal concavity and short maxillary barbels extending to the base of the pectoral fin. Kryptopterus geminus can be further distinguished from K. cryptopterus in having a narrower head (9.5– 12.0% SL vs. 12.2–14.2), longer anal fin (62.2–72.7% SL vs. 57.2–62.9) and snout (39.5–45.3% HL vs. 35.1–39.8), and more laterally-placed eyes (only ventral half, vs. ventral two-thirds, of the orbital margin visible when the head is viewed ventrally).

A New Species

This paper provides a synopsis of 104 genera of eriophyoid mites in Southeast Asia, with an identification key to families and genera, and a checklist of 325 species. A new species—Paniculatus curcasis sp. nov. on Jatropha curcas (Euphorbiaceae) from Java, Indonesia—was described. Four new combinations were proposed—Cosella crotoni (Boczek & Chandrapatya, 2000), comb. nov. on Croton oblongifolius (Euphorbiaceae) from Thailand; Paraphytoptus binarius (Keifer, 1977), comb. nov. on Peltophorum pterocarpum (Fabaceae) from Thailand; Leipothrix mangiferae (Chandrapatya, 1997), comb. nov. on Mangifera indica (Anacardiaceae) from Thailand; and Levonga caseariae (Chandrapatya, 1997) comb. nov. on Casearia grewiaefolia (Flacourtiaceae) from Thailand. Four new names were proposed for junior homonyms—Quadriporca samphran nom. nov. on Mangifera indica (Anacardiaceae) from Thailand; Knorella blumcanae nom. nov. on Bambusa blumcana (Poaceae) from Thailand; Rhombacus bangkoki nom. nov. on Eucalyptus sp. (Myrtaceae) from Thailand; and Tetra stipularisis nom. nov. on Bridelia stipularis (Euphorbiaceae) from Thailand.

A New Species

Antheromorphanguyenisp. n. is described and illustrated from Kon Ka Kinh National Park, southern Vietnam. The new species is distinguished by a peculiar colour pattern showing a uniformly black-brown body contrasting with yellow-brown paraterga and epiproct, as well as in the pointed gonopodal process being unusually short, only approximately half as long as the solenophore. In addition, an identification key to all 13 presently known species, all mapped, is given. A new record of A.festiva is provided from southern Vietnam.

Herein we describe a new species of Lycodon H. Boie in Fitzinger (Squamata: Colubridae) from Aceh Province, Sumatra. This brings the number of species known to occur on the Sunda Shelf to seven. The new species is readily diagnosed from the other congeners in the region by the lack of a preocular scale, the presence of keeled dorsal scales and a banded venter. It is superficially similar to L. butleri from the Malaysian Peninsula in coloration and to L. subcinctus in head scalation. Genetically, the new species is most similar to a group of species from Mainland Southeast Asia and China. We also note the presence of several deeply divergent lineages within Lycodon that may warrant the recognition as distinct genera. The genus is in need of a comprehensive molecular and morphological review.

We describe a new species of the agamid genus Calotes Cuvier, 1817 from southern Vietnam, which is most similar to Calotes mystaceus Duméril & Bibron, 1837, but can be distinguished from the latter and its other congeners by genetic and morphological differences. We discuss the current distribution of the new species and its sister species C. mystaceus in Mainland Southeast Asia.

Neochrysocharis beasleyi sp.n. (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae: Entedoninae) is described from Indonesia and Vietnam. This species is a parasitoid of leafmining Agromyzidae, and is a potential biological control agent for invasive agromyzid species. Variation within Southeast Asian specimens of Neochrysocharis formosa is described and discussed. Neochrysocharis stat. rev. is treated as a valid genus, and removed from synonymy with Closterocerus.Key words: Hymenoptera, Eulophidae, Neochrysocharis, parasitoids, Agromyzidae, Liriomyza, Indonesia, Vietnam, Neochrysocharis formosa, variation

A new species of the dicroglossid frog genus Limnonectes is described from recent and historical museum specimens collected in central and southern Laos and northeastern Thailand. Limnonectessavansp. nov. has males that bear a caruncle on top of the head, and most closely resembles L.dabanus from adjacent southern Vietnam and eastern Cambodia. However, the new species is readily distinguished from L.dabanus, and all other caruncle-bearing species of Limnonectes in mainland Southeast Asia, by its adult and larval morphology, mitochondrial DNA, and advertisement call. Its description brings the total number of caruncle-bearing species of Limnonectes to six.
