(Camptopteroides) formosa Manickavasagam & Sankararaman sp. n. from India and C. (Camptopteroides) reducta Triapitsyn sp. n. from Thailand and Malaysia, are described, and C. formosa additionally compared to two unnamed species. The holotype male of the type species of this genus, C. armata Viggiani from Sri Lanka, is diagnosed and illustrated. A key to Old World species of Camptopteroides is provided.

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.

Since the publication of the previous paper (Leeson, 1953), additional information has been accumulated on the geographical distribution of some of the Old World ticks of the genus Ornithodoros and two new species (zumpti and arenicolous) have been described. Much of this additional matter has been communicated to me by correspondents who have been kind enough to give permission for its publication here. Their names are enclosed in brackets after the new data to indicate the source and to these workers I tender my sincere thanks.

The subfamily Ticoplinae is Afrotropical, Oriental and Palaearctic in distribution with six species in two genera (Eosmicromyrmilla Lelej & Krombein, 2001 and Hindustanilla Lelej in Lelej & Krombein, 2001) known from the Oriental Region. Two new species, E. subbuka sp. nov., and E. balakrishnani sp. nov. were recently discovered in India (Western Ghats). Keys to the Old World genera of tribe Smicromyrmillini and species of Eosmicromyrmilla are provided. An updated diagnosis for males of Eosmicromyrmilla and photos of male genitalia for the genus are given. A new combination is proposed for E. margalla (Lelej & Ullah, 2007), comb. nov. The genus Eosmicromyrmilla is newly recorded from the fauna of Pakistan instead of the genus Smicromyrmilla Suárez, 1965, which is excluded from that fauna.

AbstractChlorita nearctica is described from the Yukon Territory and is the first member of its genus found in the New World. A synopsis is presented to the Old World species of Chlorita Fieber, 1866 (Typhlocybinae, tribe Empoascini). A new typhlocybine tribe Forcipatini is created for Forcipata DeLong & Caldwell, 1936 and Notus Fieber, 1866. A synopsis of the genus Notus is presented, with Curta as a subgenus containing only the type species. Notus isolatus sp.nov. is described from Drummond Island, Michigan, in Lake Huron and from Quebec. A synopsis of the genus Forcipata DeLong & Caldwell is presented; all species belong to a single subgenus. Five new species are described: F. forficula from Florida, F. ips from Alaska and Yukon, F. montana from the mountains of British Columbia and Montana, and F. unica and F. xlix from Wisconsin. The New World species of the forcipatine genera are keyed.

AbstractThe Oriental genus Baptista Distant is redescribed and compared with other genera of Old World Microveliinae. The type-species, B. gesiroi Distant, hitherto only known from the type specimens (from Burma), is redescribed and recorded from Thailand. Three new speeies are described: B. femoralis sp. n. (Thailand, West Malaysia), B. digitata sp. n. (Thailand), and B. angulata sp. n. (southern India). These species all live in very cryptic and secluded habitats, like wet litter, small watery holes in rocks, or small cavities under turf along streams. The males of the new species exhibit a remarkable polymorphism in the structure of fore Iegs and pregenital abdomen. A closely related genus, Lathriovelia gen. n., is described with two species, L. capitata sp. n. and L. collaris sp. n., both from West Malaysia. This genus has a head structure which is quite unique within the subfamily.

The present study is based on ptyctimous oribatid mite material collected from the Oriental region (Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Macau Peninsula, Taiwan). A list of identified taxa, including 33 species from 15 genera and six families, is presented. Two new species, Euphthiracarus (Pocsia) insperatus Niedbała sp. nov. (Euphthiracaridae) from Indonesia and Hoplophthiracarus paraconcinuus Niedbała sp. nov. (Steganacaridae) from Malaysia are described. Morphological additions to Mesoplophora (Parplophora) brevicarinata, Acrotritia ardua, A. paraardua, A. sterigma, Plonaphacarus kugohi, and P. protrusus are presented. Deuto- and tritonymph of Apoplophora phalerata are described. Mesoplophora (Parplophora) flavida and Indotritia (Indotritia) krakatauensis are recorded for the first time in Sri Lanka, Austrotritia robusta, Sabahtritia sarawak and Phthiracarus pygmaeus in Indonesia, Microtritia minima, Atropacarus (Atropacarus) striculus, Plonaphacarus foveolatus, and P. protrusus in Taiwan. Acrotritia mahunkai and A. paraardua are recorded for the first time in the Oriental region.

The small genus Spininola was recently erected by László, Ronkay & Witt (2010) with the type species Nola loxoscia Hampson, 1900. They tabulated six species in the genus, S. loxoscia (Hampson, 1900), S. vesiculalis (Eecke, 1926), S. trilinea (Marumo, 1923), S. denticulata (Moore, 1888), S. fuscibasalis (Hampson, 1896) and S. armata László, Ronkay & Witt, 2010 from Thailand. The genus is distributed in eastern Asia, from Nepal and Sri Lanka in the west, to Japan in the north and Sumatra in the south. In our surveys, two new species were found and are described herein, and S. loxoscia (Hampson, 1900) is recorded for the first time from China (Fig. 1).
