Two new species, Anafroptilum orthostylus sp. n. and Anafroptilum odontostylus sp. n. are described from Thailand based on imagoes reared from larvae. Both new species lack hind wings; larvae of both species have an unusual prominent spine near cercus apex; other characters, especially shape of male imaginal gonostyli and shape of larval tergalii, are quite diverse in these two species. The genus Anafroptilum, hitherto known from the East Palaearctic [as a single species A. kazlauskasi (Kluge 1983)] and from Nearctic [as eight species reported by Jacobus & Wiersema (2014)], is reported from Oriental Region for the first time.

The genus Indocloeon Müller-Liebenau 1982 (s. l.) is divided into two subgenera, the subgenus Indocloeon (s. str.) and the subgenus Hindocloeon subgen. n. which differ one from another by certain characters of larvae, winged stages and eggs. The subgenus Indocloeon is distributed in Sri Lanka only and includes two species, Indocloeon (Indocloeon) primum Müller-Liebenau 1982, and Indocloeon (Indocloeon) secundum sp. n., which are described here based on larvae, subimagines, imagines of both sexes and eggs associated by rearing. The subgenus Hindocloeon (type species Indocloeon indonesiae Kluge 2012) is widely distributed in the Oriental region. A new species Indocloeon (Hindocloeon) continentale sp. n. is described from Thailand based on larvae, subimagines, imagines of both sexes and eggs associated by rearing; subimagines presumably placed in this species, are reported from southern India. Some characters of Indocloeon (Hindocloeon) indonesiae Kluge 2012 are illustrated for the first time. The species originally described as Cloeon longistylus Demoulin 1969 is placed in Indocloeon as Indocloeon (Hindocloeon) longistylus comb. n. Subimagines of two unnamed species of Hindocloeon are reported from Vietnam and Java. Keys to known larvae and imagines are given.

Five oribatid mite species (Oribatida), phoretic on beetles, Aceraius grandis (Coleoptera, Passalidae) from Vietnam, are identified: two new species, belonging to the subgenera Graptoppia (Stenoppia) (Oppiidae) and Perscheloribates (Perscheloribates) (Scheloribatidae), are described; and three known species are Mesoplophora (Parplophora) flavida, M. (P.) polita and Ramusella (Sabahoppia) blattarum. Graptoppia (Stenoppia) luisi sp. nov. differs from all species of the subgenus by the presence of tridentate rostrum. Perscheloribates kontumensis sp. nov. differs from Perscheloribates curiosus Ermilov, 2016, Perscheloribates hanoiensis Ermilov & Starý, 2018 and Perscheloribates surigaoensis Corpuz-Raros, 1980 by the presence of body sculpturing, distinct setiform apex in bothridial setae and flexible notogastral setae. Species M. (P.) flavida, M. (P.) polita and R. blattarum, the subgenera Mesoplophora (Parplophora) and Ramusella (Sabahoppia), and the genera Mesoplophora and Graptoppia are recorded in Vietnam for the first time; the subgenus Graptoppia (Stenoppia) is recorded in the Oriental region for the first time. An identification key to known species of Graptoppia (Stenoppia) is given.

Ten new species of black flies are described based on larval, pupal and reared adult specimens collected at various localities in Nepal. All new species are assigned to the genus Simulium Latreille and further classified into five subgenera: one (S. suchitrae sp. nov.) in Asiosimulium Takaoka & Choochote, one (S. jomsomense sp. nov.) in Eusimulium Roubaud, three (S. baglungense sp. nov., S. butwalense sp. nov., S. nuwakotense sp. nov.) in Gomphostilbia Enderlein, two (S. lekhaniense sp. nov., S. letense sp. nov.) in Nevermannia Enderlein, and three (S. titarense sp. nov., S. tamorense sp. nov., S. tulshii sp. nov.) in Simulium Latreille s. str. Among these, the first two new species also represnt new records from Nepal of two subgenera, Asiosimulium and Eusimulium, respectively, both of which occur very rarely in the Oriental Region. The previous record from Nepal of S. (G.) gombakense Takaoka & Davies is corrected to that of S. (G.) sachini Takaoka & Henry, recently described from India. The male and mature larva of S. (G.) sachini are also described for the first time. The taxonomic affinities with related known species, if any, are noted for each new species. The keys to all 32 Nepalese species of black flies are provided.

The genus Chrysops from the Australasian and Oriental regions is revised. Two new species are described: Chrysops fuscomarginalis, sp. nov. and C. srilankensis, sp. nov. The status of two species is revised: C. terminalis, stat. rev. is resurrected from questionable synonymy with C. dispar, and C. cinctus, stat rev. is resurrected from synonymy with C. signifer. Fifteen Chrysops names are placed in synonymy for the first time or placed as synonyms of species with which they were not previously associated: C. atrinus syn. of C. silvifacies, syn. nov.; C. australis papuensis syn. of C. australis, syn. nov.; C. flavocallus syn. of C. flavescens, syn. nov.; C. impar syn. of C. translucens, syn. nov.; C. indianus thailandensis syn. of C. indianus, syn. nov.; C. intercalatus syn. of C. pettigrewi, syn. nov.; C. paradesignatus syn. of C. designatus, syn. nov.; C. philipi syn. of C. alter, syn. nov.; C. semicirculus syn. of C. terminalis, syn. nov.; C. silvifacies yunnanensis syn. of C. silvifacies, syn. nov.; C. stekhoveni syn. of C. fixissimus, syn. nov.; C. subchusanensis syn. of C. chusanensis, syn. nov.; C. unizona syn. of C. fixissimus, syn. nov.; C. vietnamensis syn. of C. flaviscutellus, syn. nov.; and C. zhamensis syn. of C. pettigrewi, syn. nov. An alphabetical list of Chrysops names for the Oriental and Australasian regions is given, as is a key to species and descriptions and notes for all valid taxa. A brief discussion of the biology and economic importance is provided as well as a discussion of the distribution patterns of Oriental and Australasian Tabanidae and the northern and western limits of the Oriental region, based on distribution of Tabanidae.
