Caenorhinus (Flavodeporaus) belokobylskii sp. n. is described and illustrated from Northwest Vietnam. The new species is similar to C. (F.) lobanovi Legalov, 2021 from Laos but differs in the protibiae of males with mucro, longer and thinner rostrum, slender antennae, densely punctate head and pronotum, convex elytral interstriae, brownish-yellow elytra, slightly tapered aedeagus, and armament of the endophallus.

SummaryMacFallite, Ca2(Mn3+,Al)3(OH)3[SiO4] [Si2O7], is a new species occurring with manganite, braunite, orientite and pyrolusite blebs, stringers, and framboidal aggregates, which replace calcite in fissures and lenses in Keweenaw basalt near Manganese Lake, Copper Harbor, Keweenaw County, Michigan. It is rich reddish brown to maroon in coarse aggregates; compact massive material is brown to dull pink. The streak and powder are brown with a reddish tint. Lustre silky to subadamantine, specific gravity 3.43(2), hardness 5+, cleavage {001} perfect; twinning by reflection on {100} is universal. The mineral is monoclinic, space group P21, or P21/m, Z = 2, a 8.929(6), b 6.045(5), c 10.905(7) Å, β 119.10(3)°, α 1.773(5), β 1.795(5), γ 1.815(5), sign + or −, pleochroism α yellow, β light brown, γ dark brown, γ‖b. Orientite, Ca2Mn 2+ (OH)4[Si3O10]-Ca2 (OH)2[Si3O10] ·2H2O, orthorhombic, space group Cc2m, Ccm21or Ccmm, a 9.042(4), b 6.090(2), c 18.990(7) Å, α 1.765(5), β 1.79(1), γ 1.81(1), sign + or −, α brownish yellow, β reddish brown, γ deep brownish red, α‖a, γ‖b, also occurs in moderate abundance. It is turbid chocolate brown in platy masses but crystals are transparent rich reddish brown. Streak and powder brown. Observed forms are m{110}, c{001}, and poorly developed to absent α{100}, thin to thick tabular parallel to {001}, cleavage (or parting) {001} perfect, specific gravity 3.33.A fumarolic origin is proposed for the assemblage, which in many respects is similar to the great manganese oxide deposits in Oriente Province, Cuba. Macfallite appears to be structurally related to pumpellyite while orientite is apparently related to ardennite.

A new species of Ericaceae, Agapetes reflexiloba, from Putao, Kachin State, Myanmar, is described and a colour plate is provided, affiliated to Agapetes sect. Agapetes ser. Graciles Airy-Shaw. The new species is morphologically similar to A. nutans, A. linearifolia and A. angustifolia of the Series Graciles in having linear to lanceolate narrow leaves and corymbose-racemose inflorescences and very short filaments. It is, however, readily distinguished from its three relatives by having a purplish red to dark red acuminate corolla apex in flower buds and conspicuously reflexed corolla lobes in anthesis, and corolla light brownish yellow to brownish yellow, and with 5 deep purple red zig-zag stripes. The rediscovery of Agapetes bhareliana and A. linearifolia is also reported from Kachin state, Northern Myanmar, after a gap of more than eight decades. Both are new records for Myanmar. Agapetes nana was also recollected 64 years after the collection made by F. Kingdon Ward between 1952 and 1953. Agapetes nana (Griff.) Hook. f. var. robusta Airy Shaw is newly proposed as a synonym of A. nana. A revised taxonomic description along with colour plate and distributional map are provided.

Neonympha Mitchellii n. sp.Male.—Upper surface grayish wood-brown, rather dark, without spots or marks, except that the spots on the underside of the hind wings and the dark lines bordering the terminal dark yellow line on the same wings show through a little. Fringes concolorus, in certain lights a little smoky tinged. Under surface slightly paler than the upper, a little more of the mouse order of color, sprinkled with buff scales. Both wings are crossed by four transverse brownish-yellow stripes, so dark on the fore wings as to be yellow-brown, occupying the same position as the same lines in its ally, N. Areolatus, the first and second uniting by a rounded end about a tenth of an inch from the inner margin of hind wings, the two outer—one terminal and the other sub-terminal—also uniting before reaching anal angle.

A new species of the harpactorine genus Polididus is described from Flores, Indonesia, on the basis of female specimens under the name P. dimorphopterus sp. nov. as the second representative of the genus in Southeast Asia. This species is unique among the congeners in showing wing dimorphism and is easily recognized by the pronotum dark brown to blackish with a pair of brownish yellow longitudinal stripes, setiferous spines on the pronotal humeri, scutellum and laterotergites IV to VII blackish in the basal half and brownish yellow in the apical half, the femur of each leg blackish in the apical fifth, the mesoand metatibiae lacking setiferous spine, the metatibia with a blackish narrow annulation subbasally. Polididus armatissimus is recorded from Bali for the first time, with descriptions and illustrations of the male and female genitalia.

A new species of Orchidaceae, Coelogyne pianmaensis, is described and illustrated from western Yunnan, China. Morphologically, it is similar to Coelogyne corymbosa, but differs from the latter by having dark brown eyelike blotches surrounded by brownish-yellow on lip, 1-veined obovate-oblong leaves, 7-veined oblong-lanceolate sepals, shorter pedicel and ovary, and 7-veined petals.

Colour.—Head irregularly punctate above, yellowish green, the tylus apically and the disc of vertex tinged with brownish yellow; eyes dark grey, ocelli each surrounded on inner side with narrow red rim; head below and rostrum yellow, rostral commissure and apex brownish black. Antennae dark brown, the first segment pale below, shading to black towards the apex of each segment; extreme base of second and third segments and a broad sub-basal annulation on the fourth segment, pale yellow; apex of fourth segment brown. Pronotum dull yellowish green, becoming deeper posteriorly, regularly covered (except for the calli) with small but deep fuscous punctures, which are more dense along the inside of the reflexed lateral margins; extreme humeral angles brown. Propleura yellowish green, punctate, only the outer punctures fuscous. Scutellum dull yellowish green, deeper towards apex, regularly covered with feebly infuscate deep punctures; extreme apex yellow, impunctate. Meso- and meta-pleura yellow, tinged with green towards the basal lateral angles of the pleura, which are rugosely punctate; sterna impunctate, sparsely covered with short erect pale hairs. Hemielytra more or less regularly punctate in series between the veins, dark brown shading to dull blood-red towards apex of corium; veins (including costal and apical margins of corium) yellow, more or less suffused on the disc of elytra with olive-brown; membrane black, the veins olivebrown. Legs yellow, apices of tarsi and claws brown. Abdomen yellow, sparsely covered with short pale obscure hairs.

Amanita vladimirii, a new species in sect. Vaginatae, is described and illustrated based on collections from the Czech Republic and France. The distinctive sequences of the LSU, ITS and tef1-α genetic markers, support the status of A. vladimirii as a new species. Amanita vladimirii is characterised by a greyish pileus striate at margin, a whitish stipe; and a relatively thin, but firm, membranous volva which is externally white with brownish yellow tinges where touched and internally is white-beige or greyish beige. Microscopically, the universal veil is composed of 3 layers; globose basidiospores; a ramose subhymenium; lamellar trama reduced to a mediostratum composed of parallel elements and a pileipellis without a differentiated subpellis.

A new species, Dilochia deleoniae Tandang & Galindon (Orchidaceae), from Mindanao Island, Philippines is described and illustrated herein. This species is distinct from other known Philippine Dilochia species by its terrestrial habit and is distinguished from all known Dilochia species by its monopodial inflorescence, rarely branching in two, and a pale yellow to dull orange or brownish-yellow labellum devoid of purple spots.
