AbstractA key to the genera of Scelionidae of the Holarctic region is given. Sixty-seven genera are recognized in three subfamilies, viz. Telenominae, Teleasinae, and Scelioninae. Seven new genera and six new species are described from America north of Mexico, viz. Aradoctonus armatus n. gen. and n. sp. (Telenominae, Telenomini), Embioctonus setiger n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Embidobiini), Epigryon audax n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Gryonini), Exon californicum n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Gryonini), Harringtonia n. gen. for Baryconus cinctus Harrington (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini), Mecix texana n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini), and Spiniteleia campbelli n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini). The Nearctic and Palearctic faunas of Scelionidae are compared, analyzed, and tabulated on generic level. Twenty-eight plates with 207 scanning electron micrographs and line drawings are included.

A new genus and new species of deraeocorine plant bug, Kalamemiris gen. nov. and Kalamemiris collessi sp. nov., is described from Australia. Illustrations of male genitalia, scanning electron micrographs of key characters of the male and female habitus, as well as male genitalic characters are provided. The diagnosis of the new genus is made in comparison to other deraeocorines of the Australian biogeographic region.

Styphelia geniculata Crayn and S. piliflora Crayn are described, phylogenetically placed and compared with related species. Their relationships within Ericaceae tribe Styphelieae, resolved by phylogenetic analysis of plastid and nuclear DNA sequences, support their description in the expanded genus Styphelia. Illustrations, pollen scanning electron micrographs, distribution maps and a key to the species and related northern Queensland taxa are provided, along with notes on the ecology and conservation status.

AbstractA review of Nearctic Apotomis Hübner (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae: Olethreutini) is presented. Seventeen species are recognized, of which the following are new: coloradensis, trifida, and spurinfida. Apotomis strigosa Heinrich, 1926 is considered a new synonym of tertiana McDunnough, 1922, and dextrana McDunnough, 1923 of removana Kearfott, 1907. Descriptions, distribution maps, and a key to species are provided. Illustrations of male and female genitalia and photographs of distinctive wing patterns are included. Scanning electron micrographs reveal that setae on digitus of male genitalia are taxonomically important.

The family Hermatobatidae Poisson, 1965 is recorded for the first time from China and Hermatobates lingyangjiaoensis sp. n. is described. Photographs of the male and female habitus, legs, metasternum, and male genitalic structures, and scanning electron micrographs of the male metasternum and propleuron are provided. A key to all the species currently recognized in the H. weddi species group is presented. Distribution maps for the species of Hermatobates in China and Southeast Asia are also provided. Further, a photograph documenting the feeding of Hermatobates on Halovelia is presented for the first time to serve as direct evidence of the feeding habits of Hermatobates.

Despite a recent surge of taxonomic work on the dipsocoromorphan family Schizopteridae, new genus-level taxa remain to be documented and described. The curation of Malaise and Yellow Pan Trap sample residues from Central and South America and Cameroon resulted in the discovery of five undescribed species that based on combined molecular and morphological phylogenetic analyses represent four phylogenetically isolated lineages within non-hypselosomatine Schizopteridae. To accommodate these new species, we here describe the four new genera Caucanannus gen. n. (Colombia, Ecuador, and Brazil) with Caucanannus perplexus sp. n. and Caucanannus novissimis sp. n.; Kamakonocoris gen. n. (Cameroon) with Kamakonocoris carinata sp. n.; Perittonannus gen. n. (Costa Rica) with Perittonannus antiquus sp. n.; and Rimanannus gen. n. (Cameroon) with Rimanannus camerunensis sp. n. The four genera are characterized by distinctive wing venation and male and female genitalic features. We provide habitus photographs and document morphological details using digital macrophotography as well as light compound microscopic and scanning electron microscopic images. Maps and measurements are also included.

The family Sabellariidae is represented in Australian waters by eleven species belonging to five genera, including eight of themnew to Science: Idanthyrsus nesos n. sp., I. willora n. sp., Lygdamis wambiri n. sp., Phalacrostemma maloga n. sp., Sabellariakooraltha n. sp., S. lungalla n. sp., S. pyramis n. sp., and Tetreres terribilis n. sp. Three genera, Phalocrostemma, Sabellaria andTetreres, are newly recorded from Australia. Descriptions of all species are given, acompanied by detailed illustrations, includingdrawings, photographs and scanning electron micrographs, tables summarising specific diagnostic characters of all species ofeach genus, and distribution maps within Australia. A key to all genera worldwide and Australian species is given. Maximumparsimony analyses based on morphological features have been performed to assess the position of the new species and relation-ships with other Sabellariidae. For this purpose, the Australian species, the type species of each genus and some others species,representing the variability within each group, were incorporated into the analyses. Some of the species were recovered withinmonophyletic genera (Phalacrostemma and Tetreres), while others have been considered as member of previously recognised genera (Idanthyrsus, Lygdamis and Sabellaria) have not been assessed as monophyletic.
