A New Species

The genus Urumaelmis Satô, 1963 is recorded for the first time from China. A new species, Urumaelmis yunnanensis sp. nov. is described from Yunnan, China. The new species can be distinguished from U. uenoi uenoi (Nomura, 1961) and U. u. tokarana (Satô, 1963) by its larger body size, and by the carina on elytral interval VI which extends nearly from base to apex; and from U. flammea Nakajima & Kamite, 2020 also by its black body color, the median groove of pronotum not reaching the base, pointed anterior pronotal angles, and by the absence of parameres. The habitus, and aedeagus photos, and line drawings of the male genitalia are provided.

The mirine plant bug genus Neolygus Knight is reported from Nepal and North India for the first time, thus representing the first confident distributional record of this genus from the Himalayas. A new species, Neolygus machanensis, is described from Nepal. Two known members, N. bui Lu & Zheng and N. keltoni (Lu & Zheng), newly recognized as occurring in Nepal and/or North India, are diagnosed. Habitus images of live individuals and illustrations of the male genitalia are provided for all treated species. A checklist of the Old World species, and discussion of the systematic position and zoogeography of Neolygus are included. Neolygus partitus (Walker, 1873) [Capsus], N. mjohjangsanicus (Josifov, 1992) [Lygocoris], and Neolygus zebei (Günther, 1997) [Lygocoris] are proposed as new combinations.

Abstract. A new fungus weevil, Glaesotropis (Electranthribus) rohdendorfi sp. nov. (Coleoptera: Anthribidae), is described from Priabonian Rovno amber. It is similar to G. (E.) zherikhini (Legalov, 2013a) but differs in the transverse carina extending to the scutellum, shorter antennomere 2, wider antennal club, more convex eyes, and larger body size. It is the first record of the subgenus Electranthribus Legalov, 2013a from Rovno amber, the first named beetle from the Olevsk amber locality, and the sixth amber species reported from the Zhytomyr region. An aggregation of glaesacarid mites Glaesacarus rhombeus (Koch and Berendt, 1854) as a syninclusion with the fungus weevil is reported for the first time (41 specimens); the possibility of the glaesacarids feeding on fungi is discussed.

A New Species

The tribe Adelungiini Baker, with Platyproctus agraphopteron Bergevin, 1932, P. melichari (Kusnezov, 1929), and P. emir sp. nov., collected on Calligonum crinitum Boiss. arabicum Sosk., is recorded for the first time from the United Arab Emirates. Symphypyga omani Kameswara Rao et Ramakrishnan, 1983 and Assiuta camena Linnavuori, 1969 are transferred to the genus Platyproctus Lindberg, 1925 based on male genitalia structure, with new combinations proposed – Platyproctus omani (Kameswara Rao et Ramakrishnan, 1983), comb. nov. and P. camena (Linnavuori, 1969), comb. nov. Platyproctus emir sp. nov. is closely related to P. camena and P. omani in general male genitalia structure, but well differs by the aedeagus with denticles on dorsal surface of the shaft and wider pygofer lobes. The genus Assiuta Linnavuori 1969 is treated as monotypic Canarian endemic, monophage on Traganum moquini Webb ex Moq. Assiuta salina is close to Emelyanogramma proxima (Dlabola, 1960) by strongly dentate ventral margin of aedeagal shaft. The lectotype is designated for Symphypyga melichari Kusnezov, 1929. Platyproctus flavidus Dubovsky, 1966 is placed in synonymy under P. marmoratus (Horváth, 1894) while P. maculatus (Pruthi, 1930) and Symphypyga melichari fuscopunctata Kusnezov, 1929 are placed in synonymy under P. melichari (Kusnezov, 1929). Illustrations of male genitalia structure for E. proxima and the photos of external views for A. salina and P. camena are given for the first time.

The genus Tetracona has two species with an Australian distribution. The present study aims to record the genus from China for the first time and to add a third species, T. multispina Jie &amp; Li, sp. nov. to the genus. The new species can be distinguished from the congeners by the antemedial line connecting the postmedial line near the dorsum in the hindwing, and the phallus with a cluster of spine-like cornuti in the male genitalia. Images of the habitus, tympanal organs and male genitalia are provided for the new species.

Parapteronemobius contains 7 species or subspecies distributed in East Asia with only one species recorded from China. In this study, we reported the second species, P. chenggong He sp. nov., from Zhejiang. The new species differs from P. dibrachiatus in body size, male genitalia and COI gene. The phylogeny of this genus in subfamily Nemobiinae are discussed based on COI, 18S and 28S genes. The type specimens are deposited in the Museum of Biology, East China Normal University (ECNU).
