Seven smut fungi belonging to the genus Microbotryum are reported for the first time from the following Balkan countries: M. heliospermatis, M. piperi, M. scabiosae, M. silenes-dioicae, and M. silenes-saxifragae from Bulgaria, M. reticulatum, M. silenes-saxifragae, and M. stygium from Greece, and M. silenes-saxifragae from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia. The finding of M. piperi represents the first Balkan record of this smut fungus which, elsewhere in Europe, is only known from the French Pyrenees and the Italian Alps. The finding of M. stygium in Crete considerably extends its distribution in Europe. Rumex tuberosus subsp. creticus is reported as a new host for M. stygium.

Abstract New records of 110 species of the acalyptrate Diptera family Agromyzidae are given from Portugal, including Madeira, Porto Santo and the Azores. A quarantine plant pest, Nemorimyza maculosa (Malloch, 1913), was detected in the Old World for the first time. Details on Phytobia xylem- miners and a parthenogenetic Phytomyza species are recorded together with new distribution data. For certain species morphological and taxonomic notes and discussions on known or new host plants are added. A complete checklist of Agromyzidae of Portugal is presented.

Sporisorium elegantis, a smut fungus on Thelepogon elegans, is reported for the first time from Benin (West Africa). Based on this collection, an emended description and illustration of this rare species are provided. The geographical distribution of Sporisorium elegantis is documented for Benin, Nigeria and India. The disjunctive occurrence of this species between (western) Africa and India is interesting, though not exceptional in smut fungi. The mechanisms responsible for such a distribution pattern are not known.

In this paper, we report for the first time two spider species for Albania, four for Bulgaria and two for Greece: Altella lucida (Simon, 1874) (Bulgaria), Eresus moravicus Rezác, 2008 (Bulgaria and Greece), Filistata insidiatrix (Forsskål, 1775) (Albania), Harpactea samuili Lazarov, 2006 (Greece), Loxosceles rufescens (Dufour, 1820) (Albania), Pritha parva Legittimo, Simeon, Di Pompeo et Kulczycki, 2017 (Bulgaria) and Pritha vestita (Simon, 1873) (Bulgaria). The recently described species P. parva is the first report for the Balkan Peninsula, while P. vestita is the first record for mainland Europe. Their congener Pritha nana (Simon, 1868) is removed from the Bulgarian checklist of spiders (misidentification). As a result of our report, the number of spider species increases to 571, 1049 and 1183 in Albania, Bulgaria and Greece, respectively.

A New Species

During a faunistic survey on eriophyoid mites associated with weeds in Golestan province of Iran, four eriophyoid species were collected. A new species, Aculops hyperisaemum sp. nov., was found on Hypericum androsaemum L. (Hypericaceae) and herein described and illustrated. Paraphytoptus paradoxus Nalepa, 1896, Aceria lamii (Liro, 1943) and Aceria verbenacae de Lillo et al., 2017, were found respectively on Artemisia absinthium L. (Asteraceae), Lamium album L. and Salvia nemorosa L. (Lamiaceae) and are reported for the first time in Iran. Aculops hyperisaemum sp. nov. and A. lamii were vagrant on the underside of the leaves of their host plants and no symptoms were detected. Aceria lamii is redescribed using modern microscopy and terminology. Paraphytoptus paradoxus was vagrant on the leaf underside and caused discoloration of the leaves; this is the first record of Paraphytoptus from Iran. Aceria verbenacae induced erinea on leaves, petioles, stems and flowers on a new host plant species.

Halocnemum Strobilaceum

A list of seventeen rare and little known species of Crambidae and Pyralidae from Ukraine is given. Hyperlais claralis (Caradja, 1916) stat. rev., comb. nov. is recorded for the first time for Europe. Five species are found in Ukraine for the first time: H. claralis, Titanio ledereri (Staudinger, 1870), Lambaesia pistrinariella (Ragonot, 1887), Gymnancyla gilvella (Ragonot, 1887) and Sciota lucipetella (Jalava, 1978). Two neglected European species—Lambaesia pistrinariella and Ancylosis monella (Roesler, 1973), are confirmed to occur in Europe. The lectotype of L. pistrinariella is designated and the species is recorded for the first time from Russia. The hitherto unknown females of H. claralis and L. pistrinariella are described. The differences between H. claralis and other related Hyperlais-species are briefly discussed. The adults and the genitalia of H. claralis, H. dulcinalis (Treitschke, 1835), Udea institalis (Hübner, 1819), A. monella, L. pistrinariella, Bradyrrhoa confiniella (Zeller, 1848), B. imperialella (Ragonot, 1887) and G. gilvella are illustrated. The biology of Loxostege clathralis (Hübner, 1813), Epischidia fulvostrigella (Eversmann, 1844), B. imperialella and Pempeliella bulgarica Slamka & Plant, 2016 is described based on observation by the third author in Crimea. Salicornia perenanns Willd. is recorded as a new host plant for G. gilvella and Halocnemum strobilaceum (Pall.) M. Bieb.—as a new host plant for E. fulvostrigella. Epischidia caesariella (Hampson in Ragonot & Hampson, 1901) and Pempeliella sororiella (Zeller, 1839) are removed from the list of Pyralidae of Ukraine due to misidentification.

We assembled a checklist by documenting and curating previously published data as well as previously unpublished records of bat flies from the Russian Federation. A total of 20 bat fly species are listed, belonging to 4 genera. Basilia mongolensis nudior Hůrka, 1972 and Basilia nattereri (Kolenati, 1857) are recorded from Russia for the first time. The following new host associations are reported: Basilia mongolensis nudior ex Myotis nattereri (Kuhl), Basilia nattereri ex Eptesicus nilssonii (Keyserling & Blasius), Basilia rybini Hůrka, 1969 ex Myotis dasycneme (Boie) and Eptesicus nilssonii, and Nycteribia quasiocellata Theodor, 1966 ex Vespertilio murinus Linnaeus. We provide data on nine major Russian regions for which nycteribiid records were previously lacking.

Filarioid nematodes (Nematoda: Filarioidea) parasitic in Australasian monotremes, marsupials and murid rodents are described from three genera, Breinlia (Breinlia), Pelecitus and Sprattia. New host and geographic records are presented for 24 previously described species from these genera, a second subgenus, Breinlia (Johnstonema) and an additional three genera, Cercopithifilaria, Monanema and Pelecitus. Nine species are described as new, B. (B.) beveridgei sp. nov. from the peritoneal cavity of Macropus parryi Bennett, B. (B.) bigenera sp. nov. from the peritoneal and pleural cavities of Aepyprymnus rufescens (Gray), Onychogalea fraenata (Gould), O. unguifera (Gould) and possibly Antechinus swainsonii (Waterhouse), B. (B.) dorcopsis sp. nov. from the peritoneal cavity of Dorcopsis hageni Heller and D. luctuosa (D’Albertis), B. (B.) melomyos sp. nov. from the peritoneal cavity of Melomys cf. burtoni, B. (B.) oweni sp. nov. from the peritoneal cavity of Dactylopsila trivirgata Gray, B. (B.) presidentei sp. nov. from the peritoneal cavity of Mesembriomys gouldii (Gray), M. macrurus (Peters) and the pleural and peritoneal cavities of Conilurus penicillatus (Gould), B. (B.) tricondylus sp. nov. from the peritoneal cavity of Macropus rufogriseus banksianus (Quoy & Gaimard), B. (B.) zyzomyos sp. nov. from the peritoneal cavity of Zyzomys woodwardi (Thomas) and Z. argurus (Thomas), and Sprattia spearei sp. nov. from the lung (probably blood vessels) of Isoodon macrourus (Gould) . The female of B. (J.) woerlei from the pulmonary artery, right ventricle and lung cysts of Petrogale brachyotis (Gould) is described for the first time. Breinlia (J.) andersoni Spratt & Varughese, 1975 from the subcutaneous connective tissues of Macropus rufus (Desmarest), M. giganteus Shaw, M. robustus erubescens Sclater and Wallabia bicolor (Desmarest) is placed as a synonym of B. (J.) annulipapillata (Johnston & Mawson, 1938) from the subcutaneous connective tissues of M. dorsalis (Gray), O. fraenata and W. bicolor. In general, filarioids predominate in macropodoid hosts and in the north of Australia.
