Two genera of Lathrobiina are described, illustrated, and distinguished from Lathrobium Gravenhorst, 1802 and allied genera: Elytrobium gen. n. (type species: Lathrobium monilicorne Sharp, 1889) and Sinlathrobium gen. n. (type species: Lathrobium lobrathiforme Assing, 2012). Elytrobium is distributed in the southeast of the East Palaearctic region and includes six species: E. monilicorne (Sharp, 1889), comb. n. (Japan); E. gongganum sp. n. (China: Gongga Shan); E. qinlinganum sp. n. (China: Qinling Shan); E. seminitidum sp. n. (China: Shaanxi); E. scindens sp. n. (China: Daba Shan); E. alesianum sp. n. (Taiwan). Sinlathrobium comprises four species from China: S. lobrathiforme (Assing, 2012), comb. n. (Yunnan); S. lobrathioides (Assing, 2012), comb. n. (transferred from Lathrobium) (Chongqing); S. densepunctatum sp. n. (Sichuan); S. iniquum sp. n. (Yunnan). Keys to the species of both genera are provided, and their distributions are mapped. Although all the species of both genera appear to be fully winged, four of the six Elytrobium and all the Sinlathrobium species have been recorded from only a single locality each. Three Elytrobium and three Sinlathrobium species are currently represented only by their respective holotypes.Stichwörter Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Paederinae, Lathrobiina, Elytrobium, Sinlathrobium, Lathrobium, Lobrathium, Tetartopeus, East Palaearctic region, China, Taiwan, Japan, taxonomy, new genera, new species, new combinations, key to species, distribution mapsNomenklatorische Handlungenalesianum Assing, 2013 (Elytrobium), spec. nov.gongganum Assing, 2013 (Elytrobium), spec. nov.monilicorne (Sharp, 1889) (Elytrobium), LT; comb. nov. hitherto Lathrobium monilicorne Sharp, 1889quinlinganum Assing, 2013 (Elytrobium), spec. nov.scindens Assing, 2013 (Elytrobium), spec. nov.seminitidum Assing, 2013 (Elytrobium), spec. nov.Elytrobium Assing, 2013 (Lathrobiina), gen. nov.Sinlathrobium Assing, 2013 (Lathrobiina), gen. noc.densepunctatum Assing, 2013 (Sinlathrobium), spec. nov.iniquum Assing, 2013 (Sinlathrobium), spec. nov.lobrathiforme (Assing, 2012) (Sinlathrobium), comb. nov. hirtherto Lathrobium lobrathiforme Assing, 2012lobrathioides (Assing, 2012) (Sinlathrobium), comb. nov. hitherto Lathrobium lobrathioides Assing, 2012

This paper presents a global review of the current unwieldy concept of the genus Paramunna Sars, 1866. The study is based mainly on large new collections of material from Australia and subantarctic islands south of Tasmania and New Zealand. Of the four genera previously synonymised with Paramunna, Austrimunna Richardson, 1906 is revived (type species A. antarctica), Leptaspidia Bate & Westwood, 1867 and Metamunna Tattersall, 1905 are considered indeterminable, while Austronanus Hodgson, 1910 is not considered part of the Paramunna complex. Forty-three species, 27 new, are treated, mostly from Australia and adjacent subantarctic islands. Fifteen species currently in Paramunna do not belong in this complex. The type genus Paramunna Sars, 1866 comprises four known species, P. bilobata Sars, 1866, P. capensis Vanh�ffen, 1914, P. integra Nordenstam, 1933 and P. koreana Malyutina & Ushakova, 2001, and four new species. Nine new genera are created based on a cladistic analysis (type species, original combination): Ascionana (A. darwinia, sp. nov.), Epipedonana (E. profunda, sp. nov.), Harrietonana (Austrimunna subtriangulata Richardson, 1908), Kiklonana (Paramunna arnaudi Amar & Roman, 1974), Omonana (O. brachycephala, sp. nov.), Pagonana (Paramunna rostrata Hodgson, 1910), Palanana (Austrimunna serrata Richardson, 1908), Spiculonana (S. platysoma, sp. nov) and Sporonana (S. robusta, sp. nov.). Six species of Paramunna are transferred to other genera in the complex: P. simplex Menzies, 1962 and P.�parasimplex Winkler, 1994 to Omonana, gen. nov.; P. dilatata Vanh�ffen, 1914 to Pagonana, gen. nov.; P. gaini (Richardson, 1913) to Palanana gen. nov.; P. laevifrons Stebbing, 1910 and P. rhipis Shimomura & Mawatari, 1999 to Ascionana, gen. nov. Paramunna shornikovi Malyutina & Ushakova, 2001, is synonymised with P. rhipis. Keys to genera and species (if more than two in a genus) are given. Terminal males (males with elongated cephalon and massively enlarged pereonite 1) are documented in several genera. The distribution of the complex confirms that this part of the Paramunnidae is a Southern Hemisphere, shallow water group. Species previously thought to be circumpolar prove to be species complexes, with each species having a small distribution.

Four new genera including five new species are described. All are from north-eastern Queensland. Barbaragraecia comprises two new species. B. unicorn Rentz & Su, gen. et sp. nov. (the type species) and B. richardsoni Rentz & Su, sp. nov. Geoffagraecia is known from a single species, G. gwinganna Rentz & Su, sp. nov. the type species. Greenagraecia Rentz & Su, gen. et sp. nov. is known from two species, G. attenuata Rentz & Su, gen. et sp. nov., the type species and G. cooloola Rentz & Su, gen. et sp. nov.. The unrelated genus Nicsara Walker 1869 is discussed and species with falcate ovipositors are removed and placed in a new genus, Larifugagraecia Rentz & Su gen. nov., with Nicsara spuria Redtenbacher 1891 designated as the type species. Two species are removed from Nicsara and placed in Larifugagraecia. These are N. cornuta (Redtenbacher 1891) and N. spuria. Other species remain in Nicsara until they can be further assessed. Biological and ecological notes accompany detailed descriptions of the new species along with many morphological illustrations. Illustrations also are provided for L. spuria gen. nov. A key to the described fully-winged Australian agraeciine genera is provided at the end of the paper.

Fragmentation of the genera Boliviela DeLong and Paralidia Nielson is proposed after several new species assigned to them appeared to alter their original generic concepts. Follow up studies of the taxonomic relationship of these and other closely related genera in a genus group (Boliviela, Dicodia Nielson, Gracilidia Nielson, Tinocripus Nielson and Paralidia) supported recognition of four new genera: Collasuyusana, type-species, Boliviela retrorsa Nielson; Ventrolidia, typespecies, Boliviela ortha Nielson; Carinoscapula, type-species, Boliviela bispinata Nielson; and Armaturolidia, type-species, Paralidia denticulata Nielson. Five species are removed from Boliviela and designated new combinations: Ventrolidia ortha (DeLong), Ventrolidia paraortha (Nielson), Carinoscapula sarcula (Nielson), Carinoscapula bispinosa (Nielson) and Collasuyusana retrorsa (Nielson). Two species are removed from Paralidia and designated new combinations: Armaturolidia spinata (Nielson) and Armaturolidia denticulata (Nielson). Godoyana Nielson, type-species Godoyana laselvensis Nielson is suppressed as a junior synonym of Coelidia Germar. This species is assigned to Coelidia and designated new combination: Coelidia laselvensis (Nielson). A key to 9 genera in the genus group is also presented. A data matrix table of diagnostic generic characters is given for the Boliviela genus group. Thirty-nine new species are described and illustrated with a revised key to species in the following genera: Armaturolidia ordocrista, sp. nov.; Boliviela cucurbita, sp. nov.; B. caverna, sp. nov.; B. biungulata, sp. nov.; Coelidia costaricensis, sp. nov.; C. angulata, sp. nov.; Collasuyusana picea, sp. nov.; C. diversa, sp. nov.; C. collaris, sp. nov.; C. spenceri, sp. nov.; C. recurvata, sp. nov.; C. bifurcata, sp. nov.; C. lanceolata, sp. nov.; Dialodia bispinata, sp. nov., D. longilobata, sp. nov., D. brevilobata, sp. nov., D. aviculobata, sp. nov.; D. brevisetacea, sp. nov.; D. bilongata, sp. nov.; Dicodia recurvata, sp. nov.; Evansolidia setacea, sp. nov.; E. inca, sp. nov.; E. unilamina, sp. nov.; E. episetacea, sp. nov.; E. recurvata, sp. nov.; E. gracilitas, sp. nov.; E. lyrata, sp. nov.; E. inflata, sp. nov.; E. fletcheri, sp. nov.; Gracilidia minuta, sp. nov.; G. longiuscula, sp. nov.; G. biflangata, sp. nov.; G. tubercula, sp. nov.; G. uniflangata, sp. nov.; G. membrana, sp. nov.; Omanolidia inflata, sp. nov.; Spinolidia moweri, sp. nov.; Tinocripus angustus, sp. nov. and T. sinuatus, sp. nov.

Four new genera, six new species and one new subspecies of the brentid subfamily Apioninae are described from the Republic of South Africa (R.S.A.), all representing ancient fauna with Gondwanan roots. The new genera are: Rhynchitapion gen. n., with Rh. variiforme sp. n. (the type-species) and Rh. pallidum sp. n., Apodytapion gen. n., with A. stepniewskii sp. n., Turnerapion gen. n., with T. pondoense sp. n., and Lepanomidius gen. n., with L. ruthmuellerae sp. n. (the type-species) and L. magdaloides sp. n. The primitive genus Lepanomus Balfour-Browne is re-described and a new subspecies of its type species, Lepanomus crinalis zuluensis ssp. n., is described from north-eastern R.S.A. In addition, Rhynchitapion usambarense sp. n. is described from Tanzania. An identification key to all 12 basal genera of South African Apioninae is presented and their higher systematics is discussed. Three new tribes are proposed in South African Apioninae: Rhynchitapiini trib. n., Apodytapiini trib. n., and Lepanomini trib. n., in addition to the existing basal Antliarhinini Schoenherr, 1823, Tanaini Schoenherr, 1839, Mecolenini Wanat, 2001, Apiomorphini Legalov, 2018, Setapiini Legalov, 2018, and derived Apionini Schoenherr, 1823. A temporary resignation from supertribal division of the subfamily is recommended after discussion.

Resuming published and own data, a revision of classification of Chaetognatha is presented. The family Sagittidae Claus & Grobben, 1905 is given a rank of subclass, Sagittiones, characterised, in particular, by the presence of two pairs of sac-like gelatinous structures or two pairs of fins. Besides the order Aphragmophora Tokioka, 1965, it contains the new order Biphragmosagittiformes ord. nov., which is a unique group of Chaetognatha with an unusual combination of morphological characters: the transverse muscles present in both the trunk and the tail sections of the body; the seminal vesicles simple, without internal complex compartments; the presence of two pairs of lateral fins. The only family assigned to the new order, Biphragmosagittidae fam. nov., contains two genera. Diagnoses of the two new genera, Biphragmosagitta gen. nov. (type species B. tarasovi sp. nov. and B. angusticephala sp. nov.) and Biphragmofastigata gen. nov. (type species B. fastigata sp. nov.), detailed descriptions and pictures of the three new species are presented.

Abstract. Two new genera and eight new species of benthic foraminifera are described from the shallow water, tropical lagoon of Madang, Papua New Guinea. The new hauerinid genus Pseudolachlanella is characterized by juvenile cryptoquinqueloculine, adult almost massiline arranged chambers, and a slitlike, curved aperture with parallel sides and a long, slender, curved miliolid tooth. Pitella haigi n. gen., n. sp. is a new foraminifera with cryptoquinqueloculine arranged chambers, an almost entirely pitted shell surface (pseudopores) and a rounded aperture with a short simple tooth. Among the other species described as new are four hauerinids and two agglutinated foraminifera All new species described here occur sporadically in the shallow water back- and forereef environments of the lagoon (0–55m), and live infaunally and epifaunally in well-oxygenated, fine and coarse grained biogenic sediments. They are absent in muddy, organic-rich, low-oxygen sedimentary environments within bay inlets where variations of salinity are considerable.

A New Species

Both sexes of a new species, Stylicletodes wellsi sp. nov. (Harpacticoida: Cletodidae), are described from material collected from sediments in the East China Sea. The new species belongs to a species group whose members are characterized by an anal operculum that has a backwardly directed, median linguiform process and fifth legs that display naked or sparsely pinnate armature elements in both sexes. Within this group, S. wellsi sp. nov. is morphologically closest to S. reductus Wells, 1965 but differs primarily from its European congener in the armature pattern of P4 (both rami) and the female P5. Distribution records of all species are summarized and an updated identification key to the seven valid species in the genus is presented. Taxonomic issues related to the type species S. longicaudatus (Brady, 1880) are briefly discussed.
