New Malagasy species of the genus Homilia McLachlan, 1877 (Trichoptera, Leptoceridae). Since the transfer of Homilia grandis Mosely, 1932, to the genus Ceraclea Stephens, 1829, no Homilia McLachlan, 1877, was currently known from Madagascar. We describe here seven new species: Homilia andratina n. sp., H. coppai n. sp., H. electra n. sp., H. elisae Gibon, n. sp., H. elodiae Gibon, n. sp., H. tacheti n. sp. et H. tiouchichineae n. sp. They are characterized by a mottled loss of sclerotization of the fourth article of the maxillary palps, so far only known and characteristic of the genus Ceraclea. These species are endemic to the island, their geographical distributions and ecological preferences are described and briefly discussed.

Description of two new species of Collaria Provancher from Madagascar (Hemiptera, Miridae, Mirinae, Stenodemini). Collaria elsae n. sp. and C. sabinae n. sp. are described from Madagascar. Habitus and genitalia are illustrated in both sexes for C. sabinae n. sp., and only for the female, only sex known, for C. elsae n. sp. These two species, black in color, are separated from African species with a black habitus, by a set of external characters and by the genitalia. Collaria bourbonica Matocq, 2019, described and known only from Reunion, is reported from Madagascar and Grande Comores. A key to the Afro-tropical species of Collaria is given.

AbstractFive new species of Rhigonema are described and illustrated from the gut of diplopods collected from the Philippines and Vietnam. R. flabellifer sp. n., R. golovatchi sp. n., R. rigonanae sp. n., R. spiridonovi sp. n. and R. voratum sp. n. are differentiated from one another and the remaining species in the genus by a combination of characters including form of the cephalic extremity, development and extent of the pilose region, female genital tract type, male and female tail shape, spicule form and number and disposition of the copulatory papillae. Two species, both from polydesmid diplopods, bear an unusual pedunculate, flap-like projection on each sector of the triangular oral aperture and have only thirteen copulatory papillae. Such projections have only previously been described from R. lanceacauda, a species from the West Indies that also shares a reduced and similarly arranged complement of thirteen male papillae. The morphology, bionomics and distribution of Rhigonema are discussed and evidence presented for the first time that nematophagy is practised by at least one species in the genus. Rhigonema leonilae (Sanchez-Velazquez, 1979) comb. n. is proposed for Ruizia leonilae Sanchez-Velazquez, 1979. Cinq nouvelles especes de Rhigonema Cobb, 1898 (Rhigonematida: Rhigonematidae) des Philippines et du Vietnam et observations sur la morphologie des formes indo-malaises et la nematophagie chez R. voratum sp. n. - Cinq nouvelles especes de Rhigonema provenant des intestins de diplopodes collectes aux Philippines et au Vietnam sont decrites et illustrees. R. flabellifer sp. n., R. golovatchi sp. n., R. rigonanae sp. n., R. spiridonovi sp. n. et R. voratum sp. n. sont differencies les uns des autres et des autres especes du genre par une combinaison de caracteres incluant la forme de l'extremite cephalique, le developpement et l'etendue de la pilosite, le type de tractus genital femelle, la forme de la queue du male et de la femelle, la forme des spicules et le nombre et la repartition des papilles copulatrices. Deux especes, provenant toutes deux de Diplopodes Polydesmides, portent une projection inhabituelle, pedonculee, en forme de languette, sur chacun des secteurs de l'ouverture buccale triangulaire et comptent seulement treize papilles copulatrices. De telles projections n'ont ete precedemment decrites que chez R.lanceacauda, une espece originaire des Antilles, qui exhibe egalement un cortege reduit de treize papilles chez le male avec la meme repartition. La morphologie, le comportement et la repartition des Rhigonema sont discutes et la preuve est apportee pour la premiere fois que la nematophagie est pratiquee par au moins une espece de ce genre. Rhigonema leonilae (Sanchez-Velazquez, 1979) comb. n. est propose pour Ruizia leonilae Sanchez-Velazquez, 1979.

Two new species of Protonemura Kempny, 1898, P. lupina sp. n., from the Castellane Prealps and the southern Mercantour region in the French Maritime Alps, and P. alexidis sp. n., from the southern flank of the Massif Central, are described, illustrated, and compared to their closest relative species P. risi (Jacobson & Bianchi, 1905) and P. spinulosa (Navás, 1921). Information on distribution and ecological preferences of these new species is provided.

From material collected by R. Le Berre in 1972 and by J. J. Petersen and B. Mondet in 1975, two new species of Mermithidae are described from blackfly larvae, including Simulium damnosum s.l., for the first time in West Africa. These species, Gastromermis philipponi n.sp. and Gastromermis leberrei n.sp. possess a rudimentary excretory gland and the preparasitic larvae of the former contain a characteristic caudal appendage which is lost during penetration into the simuliid larvae. Therefore, these two species are the only ones of Gastromermis known to have six longitudinal cords.

A new species, Envekadea vranaensis Caput Mihalić, Galović & Levkov sp. nov., is described from Holocene sediments of Lake Vrana, Croatia. The new species is characterized by linear-lanceolate valves with broadly capitate apices and is 40.0–67.5 μm long and 7.5–9.0 μm wide. Based on its morphological features it is similar to E. hedinii and E . pseudocrassirostris. Also, E. vranaensis shares morphological and ultrastructural features with E . vanlandinghamii, from which it can be differentiated by the valve outline, shape of the apices, stria density and the shape of proximal raphe endings. We present stratigraphic occurrence and ecological preferences for E . vranaensis based on associated paleoecological proxies.

Two new genera and six new species of spore-feeding Thysanoptera are described from Australia, with Australian records of two further species, one from California and one from New Zealand. In the Tribe Pygothripini, subtribe Pygothripina, Ecacleistothrips glorious gen. et sp. n. is a large and highly polymorphic rainforest thrips: the apterous male has a transverse first abdominal tergite, in contrast to the females that have a reduced pelta as is typical of most Phlaeothripidae. Also in this subtribe, Heptathrips cumberi Mound & Walker from New Zealand is recorded widely around the southern coasts of Australia. A key is provided to the six genera of Pygothripini subtribe Allothripina in which the terminal sensorium of the maxillary palps is unusually large. In this group, four wingless species are considered: Minaeithrips aliceae gen. et sp. n. and M. driesseni sp.n. in which the maxillary stylets are wide apart, Allothrips hamideae sp. n. in which the third antennal segment has a basal flange unlike any other member of this widespread genus, and Priesneriella citricauda Hood that was previously known only from California. In the Pygothripini subtribe Macrothripina, Polytrichothrips geoffri sp. n. is described from rainforest; this genus was known previously from a single species in Sarawak. A further rainforest species, Malesiathrips australis sp.n., is described in the Tribe Idolothripini, subtribe Elaphrothripina; this genus was known previously from three species in the Asian and Pacific regions.

The New Zealand endemic genus Podaena Ordish, 1984 is revised. Eleven species are recognized of which four are described as new, and the remainder redescribed. The new species are: Podaena aotea from Great Barrier Island, Podaena hauturu from Little Barrier Island, Podaena mariae from the west coast of the South Island, and Podaena moanaiti from Lake Waikaremoana. The most useful characters to separate species are the shape of the maxillary palps and the shape and chaetotaxy of the foretibiae in males; these characters are illustrated for all the species. Unlike most genera of Hydraenidae, male genitalia in Podaena are not diagnostic for all species. The known geographical distribution of some species is expanded, and the complete collecting data for the type series of all the species described by Ordish (1984) are given, together with distribution maps.

Parmi les trois autres espèces d’Evaniodes connues à ce jour, E. areolatus Szépligeti, 1901 et E. spathiiformis Szép-ligeti, 1901 sont également signalées pour la première fois de cette région. Une clé d’identification des 5 espèces est fournie.
