The genus Austrolimnius Carter & Zeck has its greatest known diversity in Oceania, but its fauna in the Americas is poorlyknown. In this paper, two new species—Austrolimnius uncatus sp. nov. and A. bocainensis sp. nov.—are described and illus-trated based on adult specimens collected at Serra da Bocaina National Park, São José do Barreiro Municipality, São PauloState, and Nova Friburgo Municipality, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. Austrolimnius uncatus sp. nov. is characterized by the longsetae on the mesotarsus, the medial expansion of the hind tibiae, and the hook-like shape of the male genitalia. Austrolimniusbocainensis sp. nov. can be recognized by the absence of setae on the mid-tarsus, the cylindrical hind tibiae, and the slightlycurved genitalia with few setae. A pictorial key for the Brazilian species of the genus is given. New records of Brazilian species of the genus are reported.

Two new species of Notomicrus Sharp, 1882 from Brazil are described and illustrated: N. meizon sp. nov. from the state of Amazonas and N. teramnus sp. nov. from the state of Minas Gerais. The new species can be distinguished from all other members of Notomicrus mainly by their aedeagal features, especially for N. teramnus sp. nov., with a unique aedeagal structure. In addition, new records from Brazil are provided for N. brevicornis Sharp, 1882 (states of Amazonas and Pará), N. gracilipes Sharp, 1882 (Amazonas and Rio de Janeiro), N. malkini Young, 1978 (Amazonas, Pará and Rio de Janeiro), and N. traili Sharp, 1882 (Amazonas, Goiás and Paraná).

Two New Species

As part of the All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory (http://www.dlia.org), we are conducting a large-scale multihabitat inventory of tardigrades in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP) in Tennessee and North Carolina, USA. Here we report our findings for the genus Macrobiotus (Eutardigrada, Macrobiotidae). Two new species, Macrobiotus martini sp. nov. and Macrobiotus halei sp. nov., are described from moss, lichen, soil and leaf litter samples. Macrobiotus martini sp. nov. differs from all other species of the Macrobiotus hufelandi group by having a very simple buccal armature without bands of teeth, very large elliptical cuticular pores, unique characteristics of the egg, and other morphometric characters. Macrobiotus halei sp. nov. differs from other species in the Macrobiotus richtersi group by having very small cuticular tubercles, well-developed macroplacoids, unique characteristics of the egg, and other morphometric characters. Seven additional Macrobiotus species have been identified in the GSMNP: M. harmsworthi Murray, 1907, M. hufelandi Schultze, 1834, M. islandicus Richters, 1904, M. montanus Murray, 1910, M. pallarii Maucci, 1954, M. recens Cuénot, 1932, and M. tonollii Ramazzotti, 1956. All of these except M. harmsworthi are new records for the national park. In addition, M. pallarii is a new record for North Carolina, M. islandicus is a new record for North Carolina and Tennessee, M. montanus is a new record for the eastern USA, and M. recens is a new record for the USA.

Abstract Two new species of Anthurium are described for Brazil, Anthurium cipoense Temponi endemic of the Serra do Cipó National Park, Minas Gerais and Anthurium polynervium Temponi & Nadruz, endemic to municipality of Santa Maria Madalena, Rio de Janeiro state. Both have restricted distributions and studies on their conservation are needed. Descriptions, illustrations and commentaries on geographic distribution, ecology, phenology and conservation status are provided for both species.

Four new shallow water species of the genus Pacifigorgia were found in recent surveys along the Pacific coast of Panama. One of the species was only found in dense patches at two shallow seamount-like localities inside the Coiba National Park, Gulf of Chiriqu . Two other species were patchily distributed at several localities in the Gulf of Chiriqu . A fourth species was widely distributed around the gulfs of Chiriqu and Panama encompassing a broad range of habitats and depths. The new species are described and illustrated in detail with scanning electron micrographs (SEM) of the sclerites, and colour photographs of the colony forms. The suspected occurrence of a particular Pacifigorgia species for this region is confirmed and two other new records are added to the species list. With the new four species, a total of 15 are established for Panama, making 31 species for the eastern Pacific to date.
