Extraordinarily diverse morphologically and ecologically, Lake Baikal’s two endemic gammaroidean amphipod clades are both firmly placed within the paraphyletic genus Gammarus, based both on morphological and molecular characters. However, the exact placement of the two Baikal clades remains elusive, making reconstruction of the ancestral state of Baikal endemic radiation difficult. We sequenced 2 mitochondrial and 3 nuclear genes from several species of each of the two clades aiming to represent early branches of the radiation. We also describe two new species of Baikal gammarids, Eulimnogammarus etingovae sp. nov. and Eulimnogammarus tchernykhi sp. nov., with some morphology suggestive of basal position within the radiation. We confirm the two previously demonstrated Baikal clades, but cannot unequivocally support any of the previous hypotheses about affinities of the two Baikal clades within palearctic Gammarus species. Rather, it appears that the two Baikal endemic radiations separated from the rest of freshwater Palearctic forms early and rapidly, probably as part of gammarid diversification during colonization of fresh waters in Middle Eocene.

Theristus tsalolikhini sp. n. and T. psammophilus sp. n. from the interstitial zone of Lake Baikal, Russia, are described from numerous females and males. Theristus tsalolikhini sp. n. is similar to T. ruffoi, but differs from it by the presence of elongate spermatheca, narrower labial region, shorter outer labial setae, larger amphidial fovea, more anterior position of amphidial fovea and shorter spicules and gubernaculum. Theristus psammophilus sp. n. is similar to T. athesinus, but differs from it by the presence of an elongate spermatheca, shorter outer labial setae, more anterior position of the amphidial fovea and longer spicules and gubernaculum. A pictorial key is provided for males of freshwater and groundwater species of Theristus.

Abstract—A synopsis of Dicliptera (Acanthaceae) for Brazil is presented. Six species are recognized: Dicliptera ciliaris, D. sexangularis, and D. squarrosa, widely distributed in South America; D. purpurascens, which ranges from the North Region of Brazil (in the state of Acre) to eastern Bolivia; D. gracilirama, a new species from the Atlantic Forest of northeastern Brazil; and D. granchaquenha, a new species recorded in dry and semideciduous forests in Bolivia and western Brazil, in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul. Furthermore, we propose new synonyms and designate lectotypes for eleven names. An identification key to the six accepted Dicliptera species in Brazil is provided.

Abstract—Two new diploid species, Aira minoricensis and Aira hercynica, are described and illustrated, along with chromosome counts, risk assessment, distribution and habitat, phenology, and comparisons with morphologically similar species. A comparative table and a key for the species of Aira for the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands are provided to assist in the identification of these overlooked species, and their relationships to other taxa are discussed.

Abstract Bed-by-bed sampling of twelve Barremian sections in southeastern France from pelagic basin (Vocontian Basin) to neritic platforms (Arc of Castellane, Arc of Nice and Provencal Domain) has enabled the collection of isochronous samples of the ammonite genus Gassendiceras. Three poorly known species of the Toxancyloceras vandenheckei Zone (Upper Barremian) are revised: G. alpinum, G. multicostatum and G. hoheneggeri; two new species are described (G. rebouleti nov. sp. and G. bosellii nov. sp.). The intraspecific variability of particular species was recognised. This variability is between slender peramorphic and robust paedomorphic extreme morphologies, with the presence of all intermediates.
