A New Species

A new species of Euphranta, E. flavothoracica David, Hancock & Sachin, sp. n. is described from India and placed in the zeylanica group of species. Postabdominal structures of E. cassiae (Munro), E. crux (Fabricius) and E. klugii (Wiedemann) are described. A revised key to the 16 species of Euphranta known from India is provided. A new generic and specific synonymy is established: Euphranta Loew, 1862 = Ichneumonomacula Chen, 2020, syn. n. and Dacus figuratus Walker, 1856 (=Euphranta figurata (Walker, 1856))= Ichneumonomacula wangyongi Chen, 2020, syn. n.

A new species of Draconarius, D. exilis sp. nov., from China is described. The species has close affinities to D. incertus Wang, 2003 (= D. parabrunneus Wang, 2003, new synonymy) and D. pseudobrunneus Wang, 2003 forming the newly proposed incertus-group of Draconarius. Species of this group share the following characters: the absence of epigynal teeth, the wrinkled anterior atrium of epigynum, the small and anteriorly extended spermathecae of female, and the short cymbial furrow (less than half cymbial length), the short embolus, the prolaterally originated, bifurcated conductor, and the simple, non spoon-shaped median apophysis.

A New Species

A new self-pollinating species, Epipactis euxina, is described from Gelendzhik District of Krasnodar Territory. The species is closely related to E. persica from which it differs by its remarkable long pedicel, distinctly longer epichile, and indistinct or absent viscidium. It grows in sparse pine forest mixed with oak, on calcareous soils. Four other taxa collected in different localities of Krasnodar Territory are new for the North Caucasus: E. krymmontana, E. leptochila subsp. leptochila, E. leptochila subsp. neglecta, and E. muelleri. A new synonymy is proposed for E. persica = E. helleborine subsp. transcaucasica. An updated key to the species of the genus Epipactis in the North Caucasus is provided. The lectotype of E. muelleri is designated.

A new species, Ophionyssus schreibericolus Moraza sp. nov. is described, based on adult females, males and protonymphal instars. Ophionyssus schreibericolus parasitizes Lacerta schreiberi, a lizard endemic to the Iberian Peninsula, and known to have persisted in refugial populations throughout the Pleistocene. A key to adult females, males and protonymphs of the genus Ophionyssus is presented. Ophionyssus viperae Miron & Ivan 2003 is synonymised with O. natricis (new synonymy).

A New Species

Rehn (1916) described Metriomantis planicephala Rehn, 1916 on the basis of one male and one female collected in Cearà Mirim, State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, by the Stanford Expedition to that country in 1911. The new species had several distinct autopomorphies, such as a stout, short, granulated pronotum and a characteristically shaped head, among other unique features. The species remained as a member of Metriomantis but generally was overlooked over the years, even being omitted from Terra’s checklist of Neotropical Mantodea (Terra 1995). Recently, Lombardo (1999) published an important contribution on Metriomantis, which helped to clarify the confusing taxonomic situation of this genus, considered until then as a subgenus of Photina Burmeister, 1838. In the same publication, Lombardo (1999) created a new genus, Rehniella, to accommodate the clearly misplaced M. planicephala. However, the name Rehniella was already in use as it was first created by Hebard (1928) to accommodate a new species of cricket (Rehniella glaphyra Hebard, 1928) from Costa Rica. This case of homonymy was recently detected almost simultaneously by Koçak & Kemal (2008) and Ozdikmen (2008), who independently solved this nomenclatural issue by proposing replacement names for Rehniella Lombardo, 1999: Colombiella, proposed by Koçak & Kemal (2008) and Lombardoa, proposed by Ozdikmen (2008). The name Colombiella was published in May, 2008, whereas Lombardoa was published in June of the same year. Because Colombiella had priority over Lombardoa, Koçak (2008) established the new synonymy.

Mesopolobus leucophleps sp. n. is described from Kazakhstan. It was reared from galls of Halodipiosis panderiae Fedotova (Cecidomyiidae) on Panderia turkestanica Iljin. The following new synonymy is established: Mesopolobus diffinis (Walker, 1834) = M. audi¬tor Dzhanokmen, 1975, syn. n.; Pteromalus (Habrocytus) microps (Graham, 1969) = Mesopolobus gallarius Dzhanokmen, 1979, syn. n.
