Ilex calcicola (Aquifoliaceae), a new species from western Guangxi, China, is described, illustrated, and compared to two morphologically similar species: I. mamillata and I. wuana. The scanning electron micrographs of pollen grains and stomata of this new species are also showed in the plate. I. calcicola is currently known only from the limestone hills in western Guangxi.

The genus Voragocoris Weirauch, 2012 is composed of Voragocoris schuhi Weirauch, 2012 and Voragocoris amrishi Makhan, 2013, previously recorded from Peru and Suriname, respectively. In this paper, a new species, Voragocoris weirauchae sp.n., is described based on specimens collected in the Brazilian Amazon, representing the first record of the genus from Brazil. We provide diagnosis, description, photographs of habitus, and scanning electron micrographs of the diagnostic features. A key to species based on males of Voragocoris is also presented.

The adult male, female, immature stages, and egg of a new species of whitefly, Lipaleyrodes emiliae, are described from Taiwan and Hong Kong. The species has been found commonly on Emilia sonchifolia (Asteraceae). Scanning electron micrographs, photographs and drawings are included with descriptions of immature stages and adults. The immatures and adults of L. emiliae are compared with those of Bemisia tabaci.

Craterium yichunensis sp. nov., and C. dictyosporum are described and illustrated. They were found in Heilongjiang Province, China, and C. dictyosporum is a new record for China. Craterium yichunensis differs from other species of Craterium in having sessile sporocarps with a thick lid, the middle part of which is more than 100 μm thick, with a yellow membrane covering the cup after lid has fallen off. Additionally, it has no columella or pseudocolumella. Both species are also illustrated with scanning electron micrographs.

The adult male, female and puparium of Singhiella melanolepis sp. nov. are described from Melanolepis multiglandulosa (Euphorbiaceae), together with scanning electron micrographs and figures. Comparisons are made between the puparium of this species and that of Singhiella elaeagni (Takahashi 1935), and remarks are provided on the genus Singhiella Sampson. After consideration of the diversity in adult structure among the species of Singhiella, it is suggested that this genus may be defined unsatisfactorily, and that more importance should be placed on adult morphology in whitefly taxonomy.

Mallomonas spinosa sp. nov. is described from Vietnam. This species has domeless scales with unique four-edged spines, and which are ornamented with papillae. Mallomonas spinosa belongs to the section Papillosae. The morphological characteristics of the scales of the new species are documented by scanning electron micrographs and discussed in detail, including a comparison with related species in the genus Mallomonas.

A new species of Charinus is described from Israel and new localities for C. ioanniticus are reported. Charinus israelensis sp. nov. is a cave dwelling species with extremely small median eyes, no median tubercle and reduced lateral eyes. It is similar to C. ioanniticus, which occurs in nearby areas, but can be differentiated by the shape of the carapace, the number of pedipalp spines and the development of the eyes. A detailed comparison is made between the two species, including pictures, drawings and scanning electron micrographs. Charinus ioanniticus is reported here from several new localities in Israel and Turkey. Identification keys to the Charinus species groups and to the species of the bengalensis group are provided.

The Diplazontinae identified and described by Setsuya Momoi in the collection of Dr. Kaszab from Mongolia were examined at the Hungarian Natural History Museum in Budapest. Because of insufficient labelling, the type status of some specimens had to be clarified and four lectotypes were designated. Syrphophilus stibarus Momoi,1973 is conspecific with Syrphophilus dilleriator Aubert, 1976, syn. nov., and Syrphoctonus lipothrix (Momoi, 1973) is a junior synonym of Syrphoctonus haemorrhoidalis (Szépligeti, 1898), syn. nov. Diplazon multicolor (Gravenhorst, 1829) is removed from synonymy with Diplazon annulatus (Gravenhorst, 1829), stat. rev. A new species is described, Sussaba mongolica sp. nov., and the male of Syrphoctonus venustus (Dasch, 1964) is re-described to account for the material from Mongolia. The ultrastructure of the tyloids of three species is illustrated by scanning electron micrographs to demonstrate their large variability in the subfamily. Seven species are recorded for the first time from Mongolia, four of which are recorded for the first time from the Eastern Palaearctic. These data on the Mongolian diplazontines provide further evidence for an unusually large proportion of species of this subfamily with a multiregional distribution.

Leptogaster suleymani n. sp. from South East of Turkey is described. Drawings of the male genitalia and the female spermatheca of this new species and the morphologically similar L. fumipennis Loew are given. Also, scanning electron micrographs of the spermatheca and eggs of this new species compared with L. fumipennis are given.
