Herein two new species of the genusSyngastesMonard, 1924 are described from South Korea, with detailed descriptions and illustrations. Both new copepods,Syngastesmulticavussp. nov. andS. pseudofoveatussp. nov., have two inner setae on the first exopodal segment of P2 and P3.Syngastesmulticavussp. nov. most closely resemblesS. gibbosusBartsch, 1999 reported from Australia, as they both have a five-segmented antennule in the female. However,Syngastesmulticavussp. nov. has a rounded body outline instead of the gibbose outline observed inS. gibbosus.Syngastespseudofoveatussp. nov. resemblesS. foveatusBartsch, 1994 in almost all aspects. However, they differ clearly in the number of setae on the first exopodal segment of P2 and P3. We also provide a key to species of the genusSyngastesworldwide. The present study is the first record of the family Tegastidae in Korean waters.

Taxonomic Keys

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.

In the present paper, Flavina Stål is reviewed and a key to species is provided. Two new species, F. nigrifrons Zhang and Che, sp. nov., and F. nigrifascia Che and Wang, sp. nov., are described and illustrated, and F. hainana (Wang and Wang) is redescribed and illustrated, especially to show its male genitalia. The genus is compared to Fortunia Distant and comments are given on the family placement of the superficially similar genus Mahanorona Distant.

Commercial Harvesting

Members of the family Coralliidae, known as precious corals, are ecologically and economically important deep-sea or-ganisms. However, these organisms are currently threatened by commercial harvesting. In order to create and implementeffective conservative strategies, taxonomic knowledge of conservative targets is necessary, but unfortunately the taxon-omy of precious corals in this family is still ambiguous. This study provides a review of 15 Coralliidae species from thenorthern West Pacific region and a key to species identification. In addition, descriptions of two new species, Coralliumcarusrubrum n. sp. and C. taiwanicum n. sp., as well as a redescription of C. sulcatum Kishinouye, 1903 are included.Corallium carusrubrum n. sp. is distributed on seamounts off northeastern Taiwan. The autozooids of C. carusrubrum n.sp. are retractile and each can be fully withdrawn into the cortex thereby causing a mound on the surface which is shortand cylindrical rather than typically hemispherical; additionally, there are no long spindles in their tentacles. Coralliumtaiwanicum n. sp. is distributed in an area off southwestern Taiwan. It has special unique 8-radiates with an oval shapeand large projections. Corallium sulcatum is distributed from an area off southwestern Taiwan to western Japan. It hasbeen harvested and traded for decades, but there were no illustrations in its original description, hence a redescription of this species is provided.

Abstract. Two new fossil species of Baltocar Kuschel, 1992 and Pseudomesauletes Legalov, 2001 (Curculionoidea: Rhynchitidae) are described from Eocene Baltic amber. Baltocar sontagae sp. nov. is similar to B. groehni Riedel, 2012 but differs in the shorter rostrum, tarsomere 1 shorter than tarsomere 5 and 1.4× as long as tarsomere 2, longer elytra, and shorter body. Pseudomesauletes lobanovi sp. nov. is similar to P. culex (Scudder, 1893) and P. ibis (Wickham, 1912): the new species differs from P. culex in the larger eyes, longer pronotum, being 0.44× shorter than elytra, and slightly smaller body size; from P. ibis it differs in the smaller body size, rostrum shorter than elytra, and weakly convex pronotum. This is the first record of Pseudomesauletes from Baltic amber and the sixth species of Baltocar. Keys to species of the genus Baltocar and to the Eocene species of the genus Pseudomesauletes are given. Assumed trophic relationships of these fossil taxa are discussed (urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:260EBE6E-DA6C-4D6D-A1D2-2C258224622F).
