A new genus and species of panchaetothripine thripid, Stosicthrips szitas, apparently related to Parthenothrips dracaenae, is described from leaves of a cultivated Grevillea (Proteaceae) in central Queensland and also at Perth, Australia. In another genus, Bhattithrips, a new species B. borealis is described from northern Australia, and the four members of this Australian genus are distinguished in a key. A species described from Southeast Asia, Astrothrips aureolus, is established and probably native to northern Australia, where it damages the leaves of an Hymenocallis cultivar (Amaryllidaceae).

A new genus and species, Infulathrix siam, gen. et sp. nov. and a new species, Heterochordeuma petarberoni, sp. nov. are described from southeast Asia, and the previously known members of the Heterochordeumatidae are reviewed. The genusSumatreuma Hoffman is placed in the synonymy of Heterochordeuma Pocock. Heterochordeumatid gonopod structure is not primitive, as previously supposed, but apomorphic within the superfamily Heterochordeumatoidea and the Diplopoda in general. The families of the order Chordeumatida are grouped into four suborders: Chordeumatidea, Heterochordeumatidea, Craspedosomatidea and Striariidea.

Abstract Members of the terrestrial snail family Dyakiidae from Southeast Asia show a distinct geographical distribution pattern and possess different degrees of complexity in their amatorial organ gland. This study is the first molecular phylogeny of ten of the 12 genera in this family, performed to provide insights into the origin of Dyakiidae and the evolution of their shells and amatorial organ gland structure. A new genus and new species, Pseudoquantula lenticularis Jirapatrasilp & Panha gen. & sp. nov., was uncovered based on its distinct morphological characters and molecular divergence. All other genera were retrieved as monophyletic except for Dyakia. Mainland Southeast Asia was inferred to be the ancestral range of the Dyakiidae, and the lineages then dispersed to and diversified in Borneo. Cladistic analysis showed that all 14 morphological characters used in this study were homoplastic. These results disagree with the previous amatorial organ transformation series, in which neither Pseudoplecta nor Quantula was ancestral to the other genera. The enigmatic genus Pseudoplecta, which lacks an amatorial organ gland, exhibited secondary loss.

AbstractA new genus and species of Heptageniidae (Ephemeroptera) is based on a series of nymphs and reared female adults from the Saskatchewan River, Saskatchewan. Descriptions of female and nymphal Macdunnoa nipawinia n. gen., n. sp., of the subfamily Heptageniinae, are given along with notes on the biology. The genus has no close North American relatives, but is allied to heptageniid genera from southeast Asia.

A new genus of anthophorine bees (Apinae: Anthophorini) is described and figured from a remarkable female collected in eastern Brunei (northern Borneo).  Varthemapistra edentata Engel, new genus and species, is most similar to species of Habrophorula Lieftinck, which occur in southeastern China, and Elaphropoda Lieftinck, found broadly across Southeast Asia.  Habrophorula and the new genus both have the third submarginal cell broad anteriorly and posteriorly.  Unique among anthophorines, V. edentata has a simple female mandible, while other Anthophorini have bidentate or tridentate mandibles.  The genus is described and figured, and a revised key to the genera of Anthophorini provided.
