New species of Coronostrongylus and Dorcopsistrongylus (Strongyloidea: Chabertiidae) are described from Dorcopsis muelleri (Macropodidae) from Kumawa Mountains, West Papua, Indonesia. Coronostrongylus hasegawai n.sp .is most similar to C. spearei, the only other species described from New Guinea, in having 24 longitudinal pleats in the buccal cavity and spicules less than 1,400 long. Coronostrongylus hasegawai differs from C. spearei, in a suite of characters including the shape of the cephalic collar, the proportions of the buccal capsule, the disposition of the bursal rays, the length of the spicules and the proportions of the ovejector. Dorcopsistrongylus supriyatnai n.sp differs from all congeners in lacking large anteriorly directed intestinal diverticula. The genus Coronostrongylus is found in Australia and New Guinea while the genus Dorcopsistrongylus appears to be endemic to New Guinea.

A New Species

Heminicsara Karny, 1912 is a katydid genus of Agraeciini from the Axylus genus group. It currently comprises 62 species from mainly New Guinea and surrounding archipelagos. Based on recent fieldwork in Lobo in West Papua, Indonesia, a new species of Heminicsara is described here: Heminicsara incrassata sp. nov. It is most readily characterised from congeners and other species of the Axylus genus group by the male tenth abdominal tergite forming a large shield-shaped plate. This represents the first species of Heminicsara described and known from the south-west of New Guinea.

Two New Species

Two new species of Tanycricini are described from mountain streams of Indonesian New Guinea. Both species were collected at 1,348 m elevation from Ingging River in West Papua. Nesocricos ingging Sites n.sp. was represented by macropterous and submacropterous forms. Tanycricos inequalis Sites n.sp. was represented by macropterous and brachypterous forms. Nesocricos evops La Rivers is reported from the Baliem Valley of Indonesian New Guinea.

New Host Records

From a survey of helminths of the alimentary tracts of 26 hydromyins; 11 Leptomys, 1 Mayermys, 3 Neohydromys, 9 Paraleptomys, and 2 Parahydromys from Papua New Guinea an acanthocephalan, Porrorchis hydromuris; a cestode, Mathevotaenia sp.; the trematodes, Brachylaima sp., and a psilostome; and the nematodes, Heterakis fieldingi, Odilia mackerrasae, O, emanuelae, Protospirura kaindiensis, Rictularia mackerrasae, and Capillaria sp. s.l., as well as encapsulated larval ascaridids were found. All represent new host records. Labiobulura leptomyidis n. sp. (Subuluridae), differs from its congener in having longer spicules, no spines on the chordal lobes of the buccal cavity and it is described from Leptomys spp. Spirurida or Ascaridida were the dominant taxa in each helminth assemblage, with dietary preferences being a determinant. Either coevolution and or host switching, sometimes associated with migration between Australia and Papua New Guinea, also appear to have influenced the development of the helminth assemblage in each host taxon.

The Australasian spider wasp genus Austrosalius Turner, 1917 is reviewed for the first time. The genus comprises three species, of them Austrosalius mikhailovi Loktionov, sp. nov. is described and illustrated, based on female specimens from West Papua Province of Indonesia. The genus Austrosalius is newly reported from the island of New Guinea. The generic diagnosis and a key to the species are given.

Two New Species

Two new species of the genus Cherax are described and illustrated. Cheraxmosessalossa sp. n., endemic to the Klademak Creek drainage in Sorong, in the western part of the Kepala Burung (Vogelkop) peninsula, West Papua, Indonesia, is described, figured and compared with its closest relatives, Cheraxmisolicus Holthuis, 1949 and Cheraxwarsamsonicus. The new species may be easily distinguished from both by the shape of the rostrum, the shape of the chelae, the presence of five cervical spines, the shape of the scaphocerite, and short scattered hairs on the carapace. Cheraxalyciae sp. n., endemic to creeks in the Digul River drainage in the eastern part of the Boven Digoel Regency, Papua, Indonesia, is described, figured, and compared with its closest relative, Cheraxpeknyi Lukhaup & Herbert, 2008. The new species may be easily distinguished from Cheraxpeknyi by the shape of the chelae, presence of a soft patch on the chelae of the males, and colouration. A molecular phylogeny based on two mitochondrial gene fragments, 16S and COI, supports the morphology-based description of the two new species, which can also be clearly distinguished by sequence differences.

Calamus kebariensis (Arecaceae or Palmae), a new species of rattan from the Bird’s Head Peninsula in West Papua, Indonesia, is described and illustrated. This species, which, among the New Guinea Calamus species, most closely resembles C. cuthbertsonii and C. spanostachys, is distinguished by its short and extremely slender stems, finely pinnate leaves and short, erect inflorescences that are branched to one order only in pistillate specimens.

The genus Phaloria belongs to the monophyletic cricket subfamily Phaloriinae. It is s speciose group comprising 68 species found across Southeast Asia and New Guinea and Australia. The numerical diversity of Phaloria in New Guinea is impressive, but more species still await discovery owing to the large size and remoteness of the island. Based on new material collected from Lobo and Kumawa in West Papua (Indonesia), we describe six new species: Phaloria dischidia Tan & Robillard, sp. nov. from Lobo; Phaloria paradischidia Tan & Robillard, sp. nov. from Kumawa; Phaloria tukul Tan & Robillard, sp. nov. from Lobo; Phaloria brevis Tan & Robillard, sp. nov. from Kumawa; Phaloria berbeda Tan & Robillard, sp. nov. from Lobo; Phaloria lobulata Tan & Robillard, sp. nov. from Kumawa. We also record new localities for a species widespread in Lobo and Kumawa: Phaloria nr. aspersa Gorochov, 1996.
