Stromatoporoids are abundant in parts of the Sayabec, St. Leon, and Mont Wissick formations of Wenlock and Ludlow age in eastern Quebec, Canada. The fauna is a mixture of species from Wenlock strata of northern Europe, the Wenlock and Ludlow beds of Baie des Chaleurs, Quebec, and Niagaran rocks of the Great Lakes region. Clathrodictyon crickmayi and Stromatopora prima show the affinity of the fauna to that described by Parka from Baie des Chaleurs. Densastroma astroites indicates a close connection of the fauna with the rocks of Wenlock age in England and the Baltic area. Stromatopora antiqua shows the affinity of the fauna to that of central North America. Ecclimadictyon fastigiatum is a widespread species in all these regions. A new species of Actinodictyon (A. quebecense) is described. Two unnamed species of Stromatopora and Clathrodictyon cf. podolica make up the rest of the fauna.

Euschistus Dallas is comprised of 66 species in three subgenera. Species of the nominate subgenus occur mainly in Central and North America. Some groups of species have been proposed to Euschistus (Euschistus) based on general external and male genitalic morphologies. Here, we review the sulcacitus group providing illustrations and descriptions of the internal and external genitalia of both sexes, illustrating females for the first time. A new species, Euschistus (Euschistus) tacitus sp. nov. Bianchi & Grazia, from Mexico and Costa Rica is described. We also provide an identification key to species of the group.

Dinothenarus (s. str.) amisadaiae Santiago-Jiménez, sp. n. is described based on specimens from Cofre de Perote Volcano, Veracruz. The habitus and aedeagus are illustrated and distributional and biological data provided. A key to species of Dinothenarus (s. str.) of America is also provided. The discovery of this species in the high mountains of central Mexico represents a significant range extension for the genus Dinothenarus, previously known in Mexico only from Baja California, and especially for the subgenus Dinothenarus (s. str.), previously known only from northern North America and Eurasia.

AbstractLabopidea chloriza Uhler (1877) is synonymized with Tinicephalus simplex Uhler (1872). Labopidea brooksi n. sp. is described from Alberta and Saskatchewan. Orthotylus discolor Sahlberg, a European species now known to occur in North America, is transferred to Labopidea. Nine species currently placed in Labopidea are here removed from that genus. The new combinations are as follows: Labopidea atriseta Van Duzee is transferred to Hesperocapsus Knight, Orthotylus insignis Van Duzee is transferred to Ilnacorella Knight, Labopidea viridula Knight is transferred to Melanotrichus Reuter, and Labopidea utahensis Knight is synonymized with Diaphnidia heidemanni Knight (= Brachynotocoris heidemanni). Labopidicola n. gen. is described and Labopidea idahoensis Knight, L. planifrons Knight, L. ainsliei Knight, L. allii Knight, and L. geminata Johnston are transferred to it. Key to species of Labopidea is given.

AbstractSpecies of the genus Trigonotylus Fieber are revised for North America. A new species, mexicanus, is described from Mexico and British Honduras. Synonyms proposed are: californicus Carv. = longipes Slat. & Wagn., and montanus Carv. and viridis (Prov.) = ruficornis (Geoff.). Redescriptions are given for 15 previously described species known from North America: americanus Carv., antennatus Kelt., brooksi Kelt., canadensis Kelt., coelestialium (Kirk.), confusus Reut, dohertyi (Dist.), flavicornis Kelt., longipes Slat. & Wagn., pulcher Reut., ruficornis (Geoff.), saileri Carv., slateri Carv., tarsalis (Reut.), and uhleri (Reut.). A key to species, additional records on distribution, and illustrations of the male genitalia of all the species are given.

Abstract—Justicia rubrobracteata, a new species from northeastern Brazil, is described and illustrated. The new species is morphologically similar to J. aequilabris due to its shrubby habit, and terminal and axillary spicate inflorescences with red flowers. However, J. rubrobracteata is differentiated mainly by the shape and color of its bracts and bracteoles as well as an orangish macula in the corolla, and a torulose capsule. In addition, J. rubrobracteata is only known from northeastern Brazil, from the states of Paraíba and Rio Grande do Norte, while J. aequilabris is widely distributed in Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay. A table with the main morphological characters of both species is included, as well as photographs, a key to species of Justicia for the states of Paraíba and Rio Grande do Norte in northeastern Brazil, a distribution map of both species, and conservation data for the new species.
