Three new species of the genus Omaliopsis Jeannel, 1940 from East Asia are described: O. amplimaculata sp.n. (China: Sichuan, Emei Shan), O. bimaculata sp.n. (China: Yunnan, Xue Shan and Haba Shan) and O. schmidti sp.n. (central Nepal). A new combination is proposed for Chinese O. musaphila (Rougemont, 2017) comb. n., originally described in the genus Phyllodrepa Thomson, 1859. A key for species of Omaliopsis known from East Asia is proposed. Members of the genus Omaliopsis are recorded for the first time from China and Nepal.

Three new species of the subfamily Bryophilinae (Victrix sinensis sp. n., Bryophila xizanga sp. n. and Stenoloba marinela sp. n.) are described from China. A new combination is proposed and lectotype designated for Victrix tripuncta Draudt, 1950, comb. n. Stenoloba speideli Kononenko & Ronkay, 2001 is reported for China for the first time. Checklists of the species of the genera Cryphia and Victrix occurring in China are presented.

The circumscription and morphological characterization of the deltocephaline tribe Acostemmini is revised based on dis-coveries of new and poorly known taxa from recent collections in Madagascar and from examination of the type speci-mens of Alocoelidia fulva Evans, Iturnoria insulana Evans, and Protonesis delegorguei Spinola. Alocoelidia Evans 1954,Caelidioides Signoret 1880, Iturnoria Evans 1954, and Protonesis Spinola 1850 were previously placed in Coelidiinaebut were later removed from the subfamily and until now have been unplaced to subfamily are placed here in Deltocepha-linae: Acostemmini, new placement. A new genus and species, Ikelibeloha cristata gen. n., sp. n., are described that havean unusually modified structure of the head and a large, crested pronotum. Molecular data (28S, Histone H3 genes) wereobtained for Ikelibeloha and Iturnoria, and analyzed with other members of Deltocephalinae. Results of the phylogeneticanalyses show strong support for the monophyletic clade ((Acostemma, Eryapus), (Ikelibeloha, Iturnoria)) and thus a re-lationship between previously described Acostemmini, Ikelibeloha, and Iturnoria has strong statistical support, and aclose relationship is inferred between these and the morphologically similar Alocoelidia, Caelidioides, and Protonesis.Two new species of Alocoelidia, A. maurae sp. n. and A. chasei sp. n. are described, and the genus is redescribed. Themale genitalia of Caelidioides tristis (Signoret), Iturnoria insulana, Alocoelidia fulva, and Acostemella rubra Evans areillustrated and described for the first time. The female genitalia of A. fulva, C. tristis and I. insulana are described and thefirst and second valvulae of C. tristis are illustrated. The habitus and face of Protonesis delegorguei are illustrated and thegenus is redescribed. The characters traditionally used to define Acostemmini are reviewed with notes on their known de-grees of variation, and characters that differentiate Acostemmini from the closely related tribe Stegelytrini are discussed.The type of Malagasiella minima Evans was also examined, and Malagasiella Evans, 1954 is considered a junior syn-onym of Doratulina Melichar, 1903 (Deltocephalinae: Stenometopiini), syn. n. giving the new combination Doratulina minima (Evans) comb. n.

Two new genera and three species of the Pantheinae are described. The genus Flavala gen. n. (type-species Acronycta flavala Moore, 1867) is separated from Anacronicta Warren, 1909. The new combination Flavala flavala (Moore, 1867) comb. n. is introduced. Two new species, Flavala crypta sp. n. and F. secunda sp. n. are described based on the result of barcoding of mitochondrial DNA. The new genus Xizanga gen. n. (type-species Xizanga mysterica sp.n.) is tentatively placed in Pantheinae.

A New Species

In a recent revision of Neobertiera, three new species were described and the distylous condition of this genus was reported for the first time. In the present paper, a new species, N. montedouradensis, from the state of Pará, Amazon Basin, is described, which represents a significant range extension and the first record of this genus for Brazil. This new species is unique within the genus by having hypanthia and fruits with trichomes conspicuously tuberculate at base. In addition, a new combination is proposed for a species from French Guiana recently named N. glomerata. A correction regarding the corolla size of N. pakaraimensis is included. In view of these taxonomic novelties, a key to the five species of Neobertiera is provided.

SummaryThree new Senecio species are described, S. fanshawei from Zambia, S. ngandae from Malawi and S. nyangani from Zimbabwe. A new combination is made under S. brachypodus and a taxon is added to the synonymy of this species; single taxa are added for the first time to the synonymy of S. coronatus and S. purpureus, and two taxa each are added for the first time to the synonymy of S. hochstetteri and S. triactinus.

Three new species-group are established for eastern Palaearctic species of the genus Anthobium Leach, 1819: the consanguineum-group containing A. consanguineum Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Yunnan: Gaoligong Shan, Diancang Shan) and A. jaegeri Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (Central Nepal: Kali Gandaki Valley); the crassum-group containing A. crassum Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Yunnan: Xue Shan, Haba Shan), A. crenulatum Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Yunnan: Diancang Shan), A. explanatum Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Sichuan: Gongga Shan), and A. farkaci Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Sichuan, Sabde); the reflexum-group containing A. reflexum (Reitter, 1891) (Middle Asia), A.deplanatum Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Sichuan: Erlang Shan), A. gaoligongshanense Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Yunnan: Gaoligong Shan), and A. kashmiricum (Cameron, 1941) (India: Kashmir). The species groups are defined, briefly discussed, and a key to the species included in each group is given. A lectotype is designated for Lathrimaeum reflexum Reitter, 1891. The subgenus Prionothorax Luze, 1905 is synonymized with the nominal subgenus of Anthobium. An additional species of the fusculum group is described: A. transversale Shavrin & Smetana, sp.n. (China: Sichuan: Gongga Shan). The species of each species-group are (re-)described, illustrated, and their geographical distributions are mapped. Anthobium reflexum is recorded from Kyrgyzstan for the first time.

Three new species of Otostigmus Porat, 1876 from Brazilian Atlantic Forest are described. Otostigmus beckeri sp. n. andO. lanceolatus sp. n. are described from the state of Bahia and O. giupponii sp. n. from the state of Espírito Santo. InBrazil, the otostigmine scolopendrid genus Otostigmus comprises 22 species. A summary of Brazilian Otostigmus speciesis presented with new distribution records, taxonomic remarks when appropriate and an identification key. Otostigmus sul-catus Meinert, 1886 is recorded for the first time from Brazil; the Andean Otostigmus silvestrii Kraepelin 1903, previouslyrecorded from Brazil, is here considered not to be present in this country. Eight nominal species are regarded here as newsynonyms. Five of them—Otostigmus pradoi Bücherl, 1939, O. longistigma Bücherl, 1939, O. longipes Bücherl, 1939,O. langei Bücherl, 1946 and O. dentifusus Bücherl, 1946—are based on females of O. tibialis Brölemann, 1902. O. latipesBücherl, 1954 is conspecific with and is considered a junior synonym of O. sulcatus Meinert, 1886; O. limbatus diminutusBücherl, 1946 is a junior synonym of O. limbatus Meinert, 1886 and O. fossulatus Attems, 1928 is a junior synonym of O. goeldii Brölemann, 1898. A lectotype is designated for O. goeldii.
