Introduction: The genus Massinium includes 11 species, most from the Indo Pacific Ocean, and had not previously being reported from the American continent. Objective: To present the new record of the genus Massinium and describe a new species of this genus. Methods: Material collection was done by SCUBA-diving to depths of a maximum of 9 m. Results: Massinium ocumichoensis sp. nov. is described from seven specimens that extends the range of the genus to the American continent (Guerrero, Michoacan and Jalisco, Mexico). The new species lives in sandy-rocky substrata, from 2 to 16 m deep. It is distinguished from its congeneric species by a combination of morphological characters: mid-dorsal slightly bigger pseudobuttons (40-60 μm), and tables in the body wall. A taxonomic key for distinguishing the species of Massinium is provided. Conclusions: The geographic range of the genus Massinium is extended to the Mexican Pacific with M. ocumichoensis sp. nov.

Abstract: The genus Alpinia Roxb. is a large genus in the ginger family (Zingiberaceae) with about 250 species in the world, mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical Asia, a small number distributed in Australia and Pacific islands. In the Vietnam, more than 30 species of galangal have been published, in of which many new species for science and new record to the Vietnamese flora have been discovered in recent years. One species of galangal in northern Vietnam (Lang Son province and Bac Giang province) has been identified as Alpinia calcarata (Haw) Rosc. Extract from crushed rhizomes (tubers) of this plant is used in the production of sausage, has the effect of creating color and preserving for long time. The specimens are preserved in the Vietnam Museum National (VNMN) and Hanoi College of Pharmacy (HNIP). Keywords: Alpinia calcarata, Rieng hoa cua, Lang Son, Bac Giang.

A new species, Gabrita erwini, sp. nov. in the tribe Gabritini is described and illustrated from Ecuador, representing the first record of the genus and tribe in northwestern South America which extends its distribution across the Neotropical region from eastern localities in the countries of Brazil, French Guiana and Guyana. Three new species of Sandersellus in the tribe Sandersellini are described and illustrated: S. bigladius, sp. nov. from Bolivia, S. digitatus, sp. nov. from Brazil and S. bilanceus, sp. nov. from Peru. Brazil is a new record for the genus and tribe and extends the distribution eastward from its formerly known western range in Peru, Bolivia and Panama. Taxonomy is reviewed, a revised key to known males and distribution of the known species of Gabrita and Sandersellus are provided.

Roscoea cautleoides Gagnepain is a small herb and mainly distributed in Sichuan and Yunnan province. According to the Flora of China, this species includes two varieties, namely R. cautleoides var. cautleoides and R. cautleoides var. pubescens (Z. Y. Zhu) T. L. Wu. The later had initially been proposed as a new species (R. pubescens Z. Y. Zhu), but it was then treated as one variety of R. cautleoides. In the present study, we found that R. cautleoides var. pubescens was obviously distinguishable from R. cautleoides var. cautleoides in the maximum parsimony (MP) tree. And this result was also supported by morphological characters of these two taxa. So we suggest that R. cautleoides Z. Y. Zhu should be recovered and regarded as valid name for the species.

A new species of the genus Microhyla is described from Jamun Khadi, Jhapa district of eastern Nepal, based on molecular and morphological comparisons. This species is the sister taxon of Microhyla ornata and can be distinguished by a unique vocalization, morphology and molecular phylogeny. The uncorrected genetic divergences based on rRNA gene between the new species and its closest congeners, M. nilphamariensis, M. ornata and M. rubra were 5.34%, 6.67%, and 8.31%, respectively. The new species, Microhyla taraiensis sp. nov., is distinguished from each other of Microhyla by a combination of the following morphological characters: (1) relatively larger body size (SVL ranges 19.9–20.3 mm, n = 4 in the males and 22.1–24.9 mm, n = 3 in the females); (2) dorsal surface of head and body with light red dots; (3) toes webbing poorly developed or absent; (4) a large round inner metacarpal tubercle; and an (5) elongated outer metacarpal tubercle. In addition, our study also provides a new record of Microhyla nilphamariensis from Nepal.

This study describes a new species, Crossotarsus beaveri Lai & Wang, sp. nov.,  designates a new combination, C. brevis (Browne, 1975, from Platypus Herbst, 1793), comb. nov., and notes a new record, C. emorsus Beeson, 1937, from China. Genetic data from four genes indicate that the new species and C. brevis form a clade clustered with other Crossotarsus species. Molecular phylogeny and morphological characters support their taxonomic placement.

The present paper interprets a new species and a new record of the lichenicolous fungus Pyrenidium from India. The new species P. dimelaenae Y. Joshi was found on the thallus of saxicolous lichen species Dimelaena oreina (Ach.) Norman and is characterised by globose to subglobose black perithecia with light greenish blue tint in ostiolar channel. The new species shares many morphological characters with other Pyrenidium species but differs in its number of spores and hosts. In addition, two new records, i.e. Lichenostigma dimelaenae Calat. et Hafellner and P. borbonicum Huanraluek, Ertz et K. D. Hyde are also being reported from India for the first time.
