The lizard Liolaemus darwinii (Liolaemidae) is a typical species with wide distribution in Monte environments of Argentina. The objective of this study is contribute to knowledge of sexual dimorphism in a population of L. darwinii (Bell, 1843). We evaluated sexual shape variation of the cephalic region through procustes analyses with geometric morphometry. We predict that the heads in males will have differences in shape with respect to females. The results showed significant sexual differences in shape, mainly in the region around the eyes. There were no significant differences in sizes. Geometric morphometry analyses are a useful tool for addressing sexual differences in Monte lizards. This constitutes the first study for the center-west of Argentina in San Juan province that implements these geometric morphometry analyses.

In this paper, we provide a comparative survey of ontogenetic development of chaetotaxy in the family Tenuipalpidae, with the aim to compare patterns among species/genera and to discover some general trends. We also want to find gaps within published literature and provide suggestions for future studies. Although we focused on the ontogeny of setal developments, we also reviewed sexual dimorphism in chaetotaxy in the family Tenuipalpidae.

The giant pteromalid wasp Solenura ania (Walker) has a distinct sexual dimorphism. The metallic blue female is about 28 mm long and the metallic green male is only about 6 mm in length. This species is an ectoparasitoid of some woodborers, such as Trichoferus campestris (Faldermann), a pest of many live trees and wood furniture and a quarantine pest in many countries. However, the male of this pteromalid was not described prior to this study. The male of the species is first described, based on newly-collected material. Photographs of habitus, head, mesosoma, metasoma and other structures of both sexes are provided to facilitate recognition of this giant pteromalid. Sexual dimorphism is also compared in the present study.

The stenopodaine assassin bug, Caunus noctulus Hsiao, has a distinct sexual dimorphism. In this paper the morphological characters of this species are redescribed based on the holotype and other materials. Illustrations of habitus, head, pronotum, and other structures are provided to facilitate recognition of this little known reduviid.
