AbstractThe genus Ericydeus Pascoe (Polydrosinae: Naupactini) distributed throughout the United States of America up to Argentina is revised and a cladistic analysis including 16 species is conducted. Three new species are described: E. bahiensis, E. argentinensis and E. cupreolus. Ericydeus humeralis Hustache is synonymized under E. nigropunctatus (Chevrolat); and E. modestus viridans (Boheman) and E. modestus duodecimpunctatus (Dalla-Torre, Emden & Emden) are elevated to species rank. Other valid species are: E. hancocki (Kirby), E. schoenherri (Perty), E. sedecimpunctatus (Linnaeus), E. yucatanus (Champion), E. roseiventris (Champion), E. quadripunctatus (Champion), E. modestus (Gyllenhal), E. forreri (Champion), E. lautus (LeConte) and E. placidus (Horn). In the cladogram obtained the species from South America gather in a clade (E. argentinensis, E. sedecimpunctatus, E. nigropunctatus, E. schoenherri, E. hancocki, and E. bahiensis) and the species from Central and North America form a separate clade (E. yucatanus, E. roseiventris - E. quadripunctatus, E. cupreolus, E. viridans - E. modestus, E. duodecimpunctatus, E. forreri, E. lautus - E. placidus). The character evolution follows a southern-northern direction. The paper includes a redescription of the genus, redescriptions or descriptions of its 16 species, a dichotomous key, habitus photographs, drawings of diagnostic structures, distribution maps, a cladogram, and a discussion of the phylogeny and distribution of the genus.

Three new species of Gyroporus, one from the southern hemisphere (Gyroporus madagascariensis sp. nov.) and two from the northern hemisphere (Gyroporus borealis sp. nov. and Gyroporus smithii sp. nov.), are described. G. madagascariensis is a brownish bolete currently known from Madagascar; it has a mottled pileus somewhat reminiscent of G. mcnabbii, another species known from the southern hemisphere. G. borealis is known from the northeastern United States and is also recorded from the northwestern United States under planted landscape trees. G. smithii corresponds to an orange-colored species that has often been encountered in the United States west and south of the Appalachian Mountains (east of the Great Plains) and is likely often mistaken for G. borealis, which can display orange coloration. Additionally, this study presents evidence that G. roseialbus Murrill and G. subalbellus Murrill, previously synonymized by Rolf Singer, are in fact distinct species.

The clivinematine genus Ambracius Stål is revised and the three new species Ambracius alineae from Venezuela, A. liviae from the United States (Texas), and A. rudybuenoi from Panama are described and illustrated. The previously known species Ambracius capucinus (Reuter), A. dufouri Stål, A. mexicanus Carvalho, A. pallescens (Distant), A. rubricosus (Distant), and A. vittatus Carvalho are redescribed. A key to species is provided to aid in identification.

Three new species of Tricholoma are described from Costa Rican montane forests with additional collections cited from the United States. The new species are Tricholoma felschii sp. nov., Tricholoma costaricense sp. nov. and Tricholoma atratum sp. nov. A discussion of Tricholoma luteomaculosum is also included. These taxa share morphological features of strong farinaceous odor and taste, pseudoparenchymatous pileal subcutis, and rugulose pileus at some stage of development. In addition, cheilocystidia occur in two of the taxa but not the third. Phylogenies are presented based on ITS sequences.

Leptographium species are most commonly known as anamorphs of Ophiostoma and are usually associated with insects that infest trees. Three new species of Leptographium were isolated from conifer roots in various parts of the United States. These three species differ from described species both morphologically and on the basis of their allozyme banding patterns. Leptographium albopini occurs both in the eastern and western United States on white pine hosts, while Leptographium douglasii occurs commonly in the western United Sates and has been found only on Pseudotsuga menziesii. Leptrographium neomexicanus occurs in the southwestern United States and has thus far only been collected from Pinus ponderosa. Key words : Leptographium albopini, Leptographium douglasii, Leptographium neomexicanus, Pinus, Pseudotsuga, systematics, root infesting insects.

The genus Rhabdorthodesgen. n. is described for three previously unnamed noctuid moths from the mountains of south-western United States and Mexico. It is assigned to subfamily Noctuinae, tribe Eriopygini. Rhabdorthodespattersonisp. n. from the United States and Rhabdorthodesdurangosp. n. and Rhabdorthodespetersonisp. n. from Mexico are described. These moths are small, dull gray brown, and lack highly diagnostic wing markings, but are distinctive structurally. The adults and genitalia of both sexes are illustrated and distribution maps are presented. Two species eponyms honor persons who have facilitated the study and enjoyment of moths in North America by creating moth-specific websites.
