The Aleiodes pallidator species-group is defined, and an identification key is provided for the five species known to occur in the U.S.A. and Canada. Two new species are described: Aleiodes martini Shaw and Marsh, from Florida, and A. xanthoclypeus Shaw and Marsh, known from Canada and Wisconsin, and reared from Lymantriidae species including Dasychira plagiata (Walker) and Olene grisefacta (a new host record for the genus Aleiodes). Five species are illustrated, and their host associations are summarized.

AbstractThe species of the genus Entomacis Foerster in North America north of Mexico are revised. Nineteen species (12 new), including 8 species of the Holarctic-wide perplexa species group, are keyed, described, and figured. These taxa are E. ambigua (Brues), E. apopkaensissp. nov., E. arcticasp. nov., E. cellariasp. nov., E. cepasp. nov., E. eorariasp. nov., E. floridana (Ashmead), E. grandiclavasp. nov., E. longii (Ashmead), E. mellipetiola (Ashmead), E. parambiguasp. nov., and perplexa group members E. californica (Ashmead), E. microbipunctatasp. nov., E. notioxerasp. nov., E. oulasp. nov., E. parvasp. nov., E. perplexa (Haliday), E. sapratasp. nov., and E. subemarginata (Ashmead). Hemilexodes canadensis (Harrington) is synonymized under Entomacis mellipetiola (Ashmead) (syn. nov.). The status of Entomacis latipennis (Ashmead), E. filiformis (Ashmead), and Hemilexis jessei Mann is reviewed. New character complexes, particularly chaetotaxy, are emphasized for Diapriidae species taxonomy.

Species of North American Cybaeus L. Koch (Araneae: Dictynoidea: Cybaeidae) are common moist-forest spiders classified in Holarctic and Californian clades. Here we review the adenes species group of the Californian clade. We recognize nine species: Cybaeus adenes Chamberlin & Ivie, C. amicus Chamberlin & Ivie, C. auburn Bennett spec. nov., C. grizzlyi Schenkel, C. pearcei Bennett spec. nov., C. reducens Chamberlin & Ivie, C. sanbruno Bennett, C. schusteri Bennett spec. nov., and C. torosus Bennett spec. nov. The species of the adenes group have extremely restricted ranges in west central California from Sonoma and Napa Counties south to northern Monterey County and in east central California from Placer and El Dorado Counties. Descriptions, illustrations, range maps, and an identification key are provided for all species.

A New Species

Parastenocaris brevipes Kessler is redescribed and its presence in North America is established through comparison of specimens from the U.S.A., Finland, and Germany. Parastenocaris wilsoni Borutskii, Parastenocaris starretti Pennak, Parastenocaris biwae Miura, and Parastenocaris sp. 2 Strayer (Strayer, D.L. 1988. Stygologia, 4: 279–291.) are assigned to the synonymy of P. brevipes. Biwaecaris Jakobi is a synonym of Parastenocaris Kessler. Some North American records of P. brevipes or P. starretti refer in fact to P. brevipes, other records to a presently undescribed species. Newly verified records of P. brevipes include Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New York, Virginia, and Wisconsin in the U.S.A., and Lake Biwa, Japan. Parastenocaris trichelata, new species, is described from Virginia, U.S.A. The taxon is distinguished in both sexes by the combination of the long slender caudal ramus with all setae inserted in the distal half and by the medial spine of the leg 1 basipodite, and in the male by the leg 4 with slender hyaline endopodite and 3 spines on the basipodite medial to the endopodite. The new species little resembles any known North American parastenocaridid, nor is it assignable to any presently defined species-group in the genus.

Subjective Synonym

The larva of Epeorus punctatus (McDunnough) is described for the first time based on reared specimens from West Virginia. Larvae are differentiated from those of other E. vitreus species group species by the bluntly pointed femoral projections, subrectangular head capsule, and short posterolateral abdominal projections. Epeorus rubidus (Traver) is considered to be a junior subjective synonym of E. vitreus (Walker). A key for the known larvae of the eastern North American species of the E. vitreus species group [E. dispar (Traver), E. punctatus, E. subpallidus (Traver), E. vitreus] is provided.

Generic Rank

Over a century ago in his memoir on Gorytes, Lepeletier proposed Lestiphorus for the reception of Rossi's distinctive European species Crabro bicinctus. However, very few subsequent authors have recognized it as a discrete generic entity. It has generally been regarded as merely a species group or occasionally treated as a subgenus of Gorytes or some related genus. But Lestiphorus, although small, is indubitably entitled to full generic rank.
