A new species of Placospongia is described from Bahia State, Brazil. Placospongia giseleae sp. nov.. The specimen is found on the underside of rocks in shallow waters (0-20m), and is unique by having a spiculation consisting of two tylostyle categories, selenasters and acanthomicrorhabds. In addition, Placospongia ruetzleri, is recorded for the first time to Bahia state, 2.974 km southwards from its type locality, the Guyana shelf. The diversity of Placospongia species is raised from two to four taxa. An identification key for Western Atlantic Placospongia species is presented.

The authors report the genus Zethus Fabricius from Taiwan for the first time and describe a new species, Zethus taiwanus sp. nov. (holotype, Guishan, Xindian District, New Taipei City), which is most similar to Z. nigerrimus Gusenleitner, 2001 in female morphology. Zethus trimaculatus Cameron, 1904 is re-described based on the female holotype and the male of Z. nigerrimus also described for the first time. Following Giordani Soika's criteria for sub-groupings of the Oriental Zethus, Z. taiwanus, Z. nigerrimus and two recently described species, Z. tansoneus Nguyen & Carpenter, 2016 and Z. tumidus Nguyen & Carpenter, 2016, are subsequently added to the trimaculatus-group. A key to the Zethus trimaculatus-group is provided based mainly on male characters.

Abstract Agrilus guerini Lacordaire is recorded for the first time in Romania, in Southern Transylvania. The occurrence of this species in Romania was expected, as it is present in neighbouring countries. A short description, some aspects of biology and ecology, and a distribution map of this species in Romania are given

The species of Centris of the hyptidis group are revised. The group, composed by C. hyptidis Ducke, C. hyptidoides Roig-Alsina, and C. thelyopsis n. sp., exhibits unique morphological characters within the genus, like foreand midtrochanters with a laminar expansion at the base, and elaiospathes strongly modified. An updated catalog, and floral and distributional records are provided for each species, as well as an identification key and a distribution map. The male of C. hyptidoides is described for the first time and a modern diagnosis for C. hyptidis is presented. A new species, C. thelyopsis n. sp., is described from Goiás State, in central Brazil. It can be easily distinguished from the two previously known species by its predominant orange pilosity, including that of the hind legs and metasoma.

A new species of the genus Lemaireia Nässig & Holloway, 1988 (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae: Saturniinae: Saturniini), L. daparo sp. n., is described from evergreen broad-leaf forests in Panzhihua (Sichuan), Qujing (Yunnan) and Dali (Yunnan) of China. The new species resembles L. luteopeplus aureopeplus Nässig & Holloway, 1988 and L. hainana Nässig & Wang, 2006 from China, but can be easily separated from them by the male genitalia. In addition, the genus Lemaireia is reported here for the first time from Sichuan Province, and now its distribution range reached the northeastern extreme point. The habitus, diagnostic characters and distribution map of the three species of the genus Lemaireia from China are provided. A list of all Lemaireia species presently known worldwide is also given.
