The new isometopine Gigantometopus coronobtectus sp. nov. from Vietnam is described and illustrated. A revised diagnosis of Gigantometopus and detailed information on nymphal morphology based on the last-instar nymph and description of the female genitalia are presented. A key to the species of the genus is provided and the position of G. schuhi is discussed based on the morphology of pronotum and scutellum.

Endemic Genus

A new genus and species, Australodindymus nigroruber gen. et sp. nov., is described from the Pilbara region of WesternAustralia based on male, female and 5th instar nymph. This endemic genus is related to the cosmopolitan genus, DindymusStål, 1861, but differs markedly in structure of both male and female genitalia, and is the first member of the Pyrrhocoridae recorded from Western Australia.

SummaryPhenology and parasitism of the scale insect, Coccus pseudomagnoliarum (Kuwana) (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Coccidae), infesting Citrus sinensis (Rutaceae), were studied in Papagou area, in northeastern Athens, from June 2015 to June 2017. Coccus pseudomagnoliarum is a univoltine, viviparous, parthenogenetic species. It overwintered as settled 1st instar nymph on the shoots of the trees. The 2nd instar nymphs appeared between the beginning of April and the end of May, and the mature females were recorded from the beginning of May until the middle of June. The crawlers appeared between the middle of May and the middle of June and the 1st instar nymphs settled on the shoots at the end of May, where they remained during the whole summer period, winter, until the beginning of April next year. Parasitism of the scale was recorded between the beginning of May and the middle of May and reached a maximum rate of 35%. The recorded parasitoid species were Coccophagus shillongensis Hayat and Singh (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae), Coccophagus spp. and Metaphycus dispar (Mercet) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae).

Subjective Synonym

Three species of the genus Wockia Heinemann, 1870, which are so far known in Russia are reviewed; their male and female genitalia are illustrated, and a key for identification is provided. Two species, W. koreana Sohn, 2008, and W. magna Sohn, 2014, which were recently described from East Asia, are for the first time reported from Russia. The investigation of the holotype of W. funebrella Heinemann, 1870, discovered in the collection of the Zoological Institute RAS (St Petersburg), confirmed that this species is a junior subjective synonym of W. asperipunctella (Bruand, 1851). The distribution of Palaearctic species of the genus is discussed shortly.

Morphology of the first instar nymph of Leucaspis loewi Colvée (Hemiptera: Coccinea: Diaspididae) The first instar nymph of Leucaspis loewi Colvée is redescribed and illustrated. The sex has not been determined. It has 5-segmented antennae, one trilocular disc pore associated with the anterior spiracle, one pair of well-developed lobes, and fimbriate plates on all abdominal segments. Tibia and tarsus are not fused - they are separated from each other by a septum. A campaniform sensillum is always present at the bases of the tarsi. Dorsal submedian setae are present on each abdominal segment 1-7.

Phylogenetic Position

AbstractThe Neotropical genus Hynhamia Razowski, 1987 is redescribed. Six species are recognized: H. hemileuca (Meyrick, 1932), type species; H. sciodryas (Meyrick, 1926), comb. n.; H. brunana sp. n.; H. cornutia sp. n.; H. sp. A; and H. sp. B; the latter two are known only from single females and therefore are not formally named. The genitalia are described and illustrated for each species. Initially assigned to Chlidanotini (Chlidanotinae), Hynhamia is transferred to Euliini on the basis of the possession of a foreleg hairpencil and moderately long antennal setulae (= cilia) in the male, and the presumably plesiomorphic female genitalia. Members of Hynhamia lack all convincing synapomorphies for inclusion in the Chlidanotini, i.e., hami, large saccus-vinculum complex, and laterally compressed antennae in the male; and the characteristic 'asteroid' signum and associated accessory bursa in the female.
