A New Species

A new species of vernal Hesperapis Cockerell (Melittidae: Dasypodainae: Hesperapini) is described and figured from localities spanning Texas, Oklahoma, and southern Kansas in the United States. Hesperapis (Carinapis) infuscata Engel & Michez, new species, is distinguished from its relatives in subgenus Carinapis Stage and particularly the carinata species group, to which it belongs.  The species is most notable for the apically infuscate wings and is possibly specialized (broadly oligolectic) on Gaillardia Foug., Helianthus L., Ratibida Raf., and Rudbeckia L. (Asteraceae).

A New Species

AbstractThe order Intejocerida is an enigmatic, short-lived cephalopod taxon known previously only from Early–Middle Ordovician beds of Siberia and the United States. Here we report a new genus, Cabaneroceras, and a new species, C. aznari, from Middle Ordovician strata of central Spain. This finding widens the paleogeographic range of the order toward high-paleolatitudinal areas of peri-Gondwana. A curved conch, characteristic for the new genus, was previously unknown from members of the Intejocerida.UUID: http://zoobank.org/21f0a09c-5265-4d29-824b-6b105d36b791

Sedum citrinum is described as a narrow endemic from three populations on ultramafic bedrock in the Klamath Mountains of southern Del Norte County, California, in the United States. It is distinguished from Sedum obtusatum subsp. boreale by its flattened inflorescence with elongate lower branches, as well as its deep yellow flowers and yellow anthers.
