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.

Mite Genus

The genus Kalloia (Oribatida, Carabodidae) is recorded in the Oriental region for the first time. A new species — Kalloia gerdweigmanni n. sp. — is described from litter of oil palm plantations and jungle rubber agroforests from Sumatra, Indonesia. It differs from Kalloia simpliseta Mahunka, 1985 by the presence of a transverse ridge in the mediodistal part of the lamellae, translamella and two thick, diagonal, convergent ridges forming a triangular structure in the medioanterior part of the notogaster, and by the localization of notogastral setae da, dm, la, lm, lp and h1. The generic status of Kalloia is discussed and supported. Kalloia mahunkai Pérez-Íñigo and Baggio, 1989 and Machadocepheus foveolatus Mahunka, 1978, which were considered representatives of Kalloia, are removed from this genus and combined preliminarily in Gibbicepheus. Revised generic diagnosis and data on ecology and distribution of known species of Kalloia are presented.

The genus Paralobella is reported from mainland China for the first time by a new species, Paralobella palustris, described here. Paralobella palustris sp. nov. differs from all known members of the genus in the specific character of 20 teeth on mandible, 4 teeth and 2 hooks on maxilla, 5 chaetae (4+s) on each tubercle L of Abd. II–III, 8 chaetae (7+s) on tubercle L of Abd. IV. The new species is assigned to Paralobella because most characters comply with the diagnosis of the genus given by Cassagnau and Deharveng (1984). It is proposed that the generic diagnosis is slightly modified to take into account some additional characters, such as mandible with many teeth (more than 3 main), the tubercle De on Abd. V separated from tubercle Dl and tubercle Oc with 1 or 2 chaetae. The above mentioned characters broaden the previous diagnosis. This diagnosis allows for including 7 species, i.e., Lobella (Lobella) apsala Yosii, 1976, L.(Lobella) erawan Yosii, 1976, L.(Lobellina) paraperfusa (Gapud, 1968), L. (Lobellina) penangensis Yosii, 1976, L.(Lobellina) sabahna Yoshii, 1981 and L.(Lobellina) selangorica Yosii, 1976 and L. (Propeanura) kinabaluensis Yoshii, 1981 into the genus Paralobella.

The status of the genus Neorthostigma Belokobylskij, 1998 is re-established as a result of additional morphological studies. A new species, N. braetisp. nov., from Papua New Guinea is described and illustrated. Aspilota brachyclypeataFischer 1978 is transferred to Neorthostigma, hence N. brachyclypeata (Fischer, 1978), comb. nov. A new synonym is suggested, Aspilota macrops Stelfox & Graham, 1951 = Neorthostigma eoum Belokobylskij, 1998, syn. nov.; A. macrops is transferred to Neorthostigma. This genus is additionally recorded in the Western Palaearctic (Norway) and Australasian (Papua New Guinea) regions for the first time. A key for the determination of the three known species of Neorthostigma is provided.

A new species of the genus Cypselosoma Hendel is described, in both the adult and immature stages. This constitutes the first record of the family Cypselosomatidae in Australia. Notes on the family, generic, and specific characters are given with keys to aid identification. The ecology of the new species is discussed and some adaptions necessary to survival in its environment are pointed out. The known distribution of the cypselosomatid genera Cypselosoma and Formicosepsis is given, and the latter recorded from New Guinea for the first time. The relationships of the families Micropezidae and Neriidae are discussed in the light of knowledge gained from the more primitive Cypselosomatidae. It is concluded that the superfamily Micropezoidea should include the following families : Pseudopomyzidae, Cypselosomatidae, Neriidae, Micropezidae, and Megamerinidae. Protoborborus Malloch and Heluscolia Harrison are mentioned as new synonyms of Pseudopomyza Strobl. The genus Heloclusia Malloch is transferred from the Heleomyzidae to the Pseudopomyzidae.

A new species of the genus Cyana Walker, 1854, Cyana halmahera sp. n. is described from the island of Halmahera, the Maluku Islands. The new species belongs to the subgenus Cryptanaema de Vos, 2017 and is similar to Cyana fumea (Hampson, 1900) known from the islands of New Guinea and Kar Kar. The subgenus Cryptanaema is reported from the Maluku Islands for the first time. Adults and male genitalia of both species are illustrated.

The present study is based on oribatid mite material collected from Mayotte island (Сomoro Islands, Ethiopian region) in 2011–2016. A new species of the genus Uracrobates (Oribatida, Mochlozetidae) is described; Uracrobates (Uracrobates) mayottensis sp. nov. differs from all species of the nominative subgenus by having a rounded rostrum (versus bidentate or pointed). An updated generic diagnosis and an identification key to the known subgenera and species of Uracrobates are presented. A list of all oribatid mite taxa of the Comoro Islands, including 41 species, 30 genera and 19 families, is provided. Thе genus Phauloppia and the species Edwardzetes novazealandicus are recorded in the Ethiopian region for the first time.

The genus Trachyoribates Berlese, 1908 (Oribatida, Haplozetidae) comprises two species, which are distributed in the Oriental region and New Guinea. A new species of Trachyoribates is described from forest litter in Malaysia. Trachyoribates viktortsoii sp. nov. is morphologically most similar to Trachyoribates annobonicus Pérez-Íñigo, 1981 in having long interlamellar setae and tridactylous legs, but differs from the latter by the entirely reticulate body surface, five pairs of genital setae and 11 pairs of notogastral setal alveoli, including dp. A revised generic diagnosis, identification key and data on distribution and ecology of known species of this expanded concept of Trachyoribates are presented. Magyaria Balogh, 1963 is considered a junior synonym (syn. nov.) of Trachyoribates and the known 19 species of Magyaria are recombined.

The genus Setoxylobates (Oribatida, Haplozetidae) is recorded in Taiwan for the first time; one new species of this genus is described based on adults from soil of mountain tea farm in Taiwan. Setoxylobates taigangensis Ermilov sp. nov. differs from Setoxylobates foveolatus Balogh & Mahunka, 1967 in having smaller body size and setiform bothridial setae, and the absence of foveolae on the body. Revised generic diagnosis and an identification key to known species of Setoxylobates are provided. The taxonomic status and systematic placement of some related poronotic taxa are discussed, resulting in the following new taxonomic proposals: Protoribates Berlese, 1908 (=Lignobates Mahunka, 2006 syn. nov.); Setoxylobates Balogh & Mahunka, 1967 (=Plenoxylobates Hammer, 1979 syn. nov.). A new species name is proposed: Protoribates mahunkasandori Ermilov nom. nov. (=Lignobates berndhauseri Mahunka, 2006, preoccupied by Mahunka 1993). The initial generic status of Polyxylobates Hammer, 1973 and the position of Perxylobates mayuloeus Corpuz-Raros, 1979 in Perxylobates are supported.
