Victoriopisa bantenensis sp. nov. has not been previously reported and also the first record of the genus in Indonesian waters. It was collected from soft-bottom subtidal sediment in Banten Bay, West Java, Indonesia and is one of two Victoriopisa which has a notch on the anteroventral margin of the head. Victoriopisa bantenensis is characterized by the absence of eyes, the lateral cephalic lobes elongate and the absence of excavation on the gnathopod 2 propodus palm. Male and female of Victoriopisa bantenensis sp. nov shows sexually dimorphic characters on gnathopods 2. Male gnathopod 2 propodus palm without excavation while female with one excavation. Previously, 13 species of Victoriopisa has been described, and this one is the 14 species of the genus.

During 2007, 2008, and 2010, 23 specimens of an undescribed vermiform sea anemone were collected on Punta Pardelas and Fracaso Beach (Península Valdés, Argentina). The specimens have longitudinal rows of cinclides distally, all mesenteries perfect, tentacles hexamerously arranged without acrospheres, column not divisible into regions, no marginal sphincter and no conchula. We describe these specimens as a new species within the genus Harenactis (family Haloclavidae). Harenactis argentina sp. nov. is the second species of Harenactis; it represents the first record of this genus in the southern hemisphere and the first record of a soft bottom-dwelling sea anemone in the Argentine continental zone. Furthermore, we discuss the familial placement and relationships of the genus Harenactis and other athenarian sea anemones.

The genus Brachycoris remained monotypic so far, with Brachycoris semiflavus Stål, 1871 from Philippines. In this paper, the genus is redescribed and its distribution expanded with the description of Brachycoris tralucidus sp. nov., based on specimens from southern part of India. B. tralucidus sp. nov. is described and illustrated based on male and female genitalia.

Neurosystasis Satchell is newly recorded in Mexico by means of the description of a new species. Specimens captured in a tropical deciduous forest in southern Puebla, central Mexico, were examined and determined as a species new to science. The male and female are described based on morphological characteristics. Neurosystasis longistylis sp. nov. is similar in appearance to Neurosystasis saltenia (Omad, Mangudo & Gleiser, 2015), but is readily distinguished based on characters of the head, wing, and male genitalia. In both species, R2+3 is attached to vein R4, the wing membrane is infuscate with dark spots on vein apices, and lacks sensory organs near the apex of Sc, characters not present in other species of Neurosystasis, and for that reasons we proposed the recovery of Chuspilepia from its synonym and validate it as a subgenus of Neurosystasis to include both continental species.

This is the first record of the genus for the Australian biogeographic region. Mites at the deutonymph stage were found attached to fruitfeeding species of Drosophila, from which they appear to extract haemolymph. A world checklist for the genus Gamasodes is provided.

We describe a new species of rock gecko of the genus Cnemaspis from Java, Indonesia, representing the first record of the genus for this Island. The new species was collected from the southern slopes of Gunung Muria, a dormant volcano in Central Java. The new species is easily distinguished from all congeners by having a maximum SVL of 58.1 mm in males and 56.9 mm in females; a pair of sharp conical tubercle clusters on the occiput; a warty bridge on the nuchal loop, extending from the upper tympanum and curving to the nape; dorsal tubercles not linearly arranged; 18–20 paravertebral tubercles; postmentals separated by one scale; gular, pectoral and abdominal scales, ventral scales of fore- and hindlimbs, and subcaudal scales keeled; no tubercles on lower flank; precloacal and femoral pores absent; enlarged submetacarpal scales present on the first digit of the manus; 38–40 ventral scales; 31–35 lamellae under fourth toe; two postcloacal tubercles on each side; enlarged median subcaudal scales row present; caudal tubercles encircling tail; and a sexually dimorphic ventral color pattern, with males having a yellow belly and females white and the ventral surface of the tail in males yellow proximally changing to white at mid-length, whereas in females, alternating black and white rings completely encircle the tail, which is black distally.
