A new palaeodictyopteran (Palaeodictyopterida: Palaeodictyoptera) taxon is described based on a nearly complete hind wing found in the Pottsville Formation (Upper Carboniferous) of Bibb County, Alabama.  Archaemegaptilus blakelyi Beckemeyer & Engel, new species, is the sixth insect genus and species described from the Pottsville of Alabama and the second palaeodictyopteran from those deposits.  It is the third valid species assigned to the family Archaemegaptilidae.  Previously known species are A. kiefferi Meunier, from the Commentry of France and A. schloesseri Brauckmann et al., from the Hagen-Vorhalle of Germany.

AbstractMorphological, life history, and distributional data are presented for North American species of the subgenus Stygomomonia (sensu stricto) Szalay, 1943. Adults of the seven previously recognized species are redescribed, and deutonymphs of five of these species are described for the first time. Two species, S. (s.s.) neomexicana Cook and S. (s.s.) occidentalis Cook are substantially revised on the basis of an examination of the types and extensive series of newly collected specimens. Three new species are described, S. (s.s.) californiensis on the basis of deutonymphs and adults, and S. (s.s.) imamurai and S. (s.s.) cooki on the basis of adults. A new diagnosis of the subgenus is proposed and discussed, the relationships of the various species are discussed, and a key to deutonymphs and adults of North American species is presented. New distributional data are presented for all species, and dispersal patterns from Pleistocene refugia are discussed.

A New Species

A new species, Pholis clemensi, referred to the family Pholidae, is named and described from 12 specimens taken in southern British Columbia waters and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Pholis clemensi is compared with other members of the genus, and a key is given to the North American species.

Key To Species

The ten North American species of the tiphiid genus Myzinum Latreille are reviewed, redescribed and a key to species provided. The new species cocoritensis is described from southern Arizona, USA and northern Sonora, Mexico. Three genera described by Argaman 1994 (Tokoparta, Fikoplesa and Ekepirka) are synonymized under Myzinum Latreille. Myzinum spilonotum (Cameron 1908) is newly synonymized under maculatum (Fabricius 1793), Myzinum beryli (Brimley 1927) under obscurum (Fabricius 1805), and the two subspecies of Myzinum beryli, parksi Krombein 1938 and patei Krombein 1938, are synonymized under carolinianum (Panzer 1806). Myzinum fulviceps (Cameron 1900) is removed from synonymy under quinquecinctus (Fabricius 1775) and is treated as a valid species.

Four Lathys species of the family Dictynidae have been previously recorded from China. Our study showed that they wereeither wrongly placed or misidentified. In this paper, four new Lathys species are described: L. borealis sp. nov. (male, female),L. spiralis sp. nov. (female) L. subalberta sp. nov. (male, female) and L. subhumilis sp. nov. (male, female). Photos of the North American species L. alberta Gertsch, 1946 are provided for comparison purposes.

AbstractThree new species of Micropeplidae are described from Latin America, Micropeplus newtoni from Mexico, Peplomicrus mexicanus from Mexico, and Peplomicrus pecki from Colombia, bringing the total number of New World species to 21. A revised key to aid in the identification of the Micropeplidae of Latin America is presented. New distributional data are given for 10 other species of the family and revised distributional maps are given for the North American species Micropeplus sculptus, M. laticollis, and M. robustus.

AbstractMorphological, life history, and distributional data are presented for North American species of the subgenus Allomomonia Cook, 1968. Adults of Stygomomonia (Allomomonia) moodyi Mitchell are redescribed, and deutonymphs and adults of four new species, S. (A.) pacifica, S. (A.) mendocinoensis, S. (A.) mitchelli, and S. (A.) atnarkicola, are described for the first time. Larvae tentatively identified as S. (A.) mitchelli are also described, and host associations of these, and larvae that appear to belong to other species of Stygomomonia, are presented and discussed. New distributional data are presented for all species. A new diagnosis of Allomomonia is proposed, two new species groups, the moodyi and mitchelli groups, are proposed and diagnosed, and a key to adults of North American species of the subgenus is included.

AbstractGroup VII of North American Ips contains I. thomasi, new species, I. borealis Swaine and I. swainei R. Hopping. They are less than 4.0 mm. long and females have the front of the head or at least the vertex smooth and shining, impunctate, or with very fine sparse punctures; males are more coarsely granulate-punctate on the frons. The species are described and a key is given. All breed in Picea in Canada and northern United States.

The systematic position of the genus Massalongia and the closely related genera Koerberia, Vestergrenopsis, and Placynthium in the family Peltigeraceae including lichens with hemiangiocarpic apothecia is discussed. The ontogeny of a hemiangiocarpic apothecium is described briefly. A key for the determination of the genera is provided.A general survey is given for the morphology and anatomy of the genus Massalongia. The two species, M. carnosa and M. microphylliza, are described in detail. The new combination M. microphylliza is made.
