Lilium shenxianjui Y.L.Xu & Y.F.Lu, a new species of Liliaceae from Zhejiang, East China, is described with illustrations. The new species is morphologically similar to L. concolor and L. bakerianum in having campanulate flowers and converging stamens, but differs from the former in having stems dark purple (vs. green, rarely base purple), leaf blades densely papillose at margin and abaxial mid-ribs (vs. glabrous), pedicle base with 2 bracts (vs. solitary), flowers red-orange, 4–10 in a short raceme (vs. dark red, 1–5 in a raceme or sub-umbel), tepals 4.8–6 cm long, 0.8–1.5 cm wide (vs. 2.2–4 cm long, 4–7 mm wide), nectars glabrous at margin (vs. papillose at margin), anthers lunate, ca. 1 cm long (vs. long-oblong, ca. 7 mm long), styles ±2 as long as ovaries (vs. slightly shorter). It differs from Lilium bakerianum in having pedicle base with 2 bracts (vs. solitary), flowers 4–10, red-orange, unspotted (vs. flowers 1–3, white, purple-red spotted), tepals 4.8–6 cm long, 0.8–1.5 cm wide (vs. 6.5–8 cm long, 1.4–2.3 cm wide), ovaries 8–10 mm long (vs. 1.7–2 cm long).

One new species, Paratrigonidium chloropodum sp. nov., is described from Hainan, China. The type specimens are deposited in East China Normal University, Biology of History Museum (ECNU). S. venustula is moved to genus Paratrigonidium as P. venustulum comb. nov. P. vittatum Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1893 syn. is the junior synonym of P. venustulum.

Parapteronemobius contains 7 species or subspecies distributed in East Asia with only one species recorded from China. In this study, we reported the second species, P. chenggong He sp. nov., from Zhejiang. The new species differs from P. dibrachiatus in body size, male genitalia and COI gene. The phylogeny of this genus in subfamily Nemobiinae are discussed based on COI, 18S and 28S genes. The type specimens are deposited in the Museum of Biology, East China Normal University (ECNU).

The genus Parapentacentrus Shiraki, 1930 includes two species with long wings. In this paper, we report one new species, P. brevipennis He sp. nov., from Jinping, Yunnan, China. The new species have short forewings and hindwings, and have differences in the shape of supra-anal plate and male genitalia. DNA Barcode (COI gene) of this new species are provided. The type specimens are deposited in Museum of Biology, East China Normal University (ECNU).

Both sexes of a new species, Stylicletodes wellsi sp. nov. (Harpacticoida: Cletodidae), are described from material collected from sediments in the East China Sea. The new species belongs to a species group whose members are characterized by an anal operculum that has a backwardly directed, median linguiform process and fifth legs that display naked or sparsely pinnate armature elements in both sexes. Within this group, S. wellsi sp. nov. is morphologically closest to S. reductus Wells, 1965 but differs primarily from its European congener in the armature pattern of P4 (both rami) and the female P5. Distribution records of all species are summarized and an updated identification key to the seven valid species in the genus is presented. Taxonomic issues related to the type species S. longicaudatus (Brady, 1880) are briefly discussed.

The genus Homoeoxipha contains 11 species worldwide with 4 recorded from China. In this study, we reconstructed the gene tree based on COI gene, and reported one new species, H. oscillantenna He sp. nov. The new species is similar to H. eurylobus Ma, Liu & Zhang, but differs in the color of fore femur and the structure of male genitalia. Calling songs and nymph morphology are also provided. The type specimens are deposited in the Museum of Biology, East China Normal University (ECNU).

Eugryllacris species from Yunnan, China were investigated from 2018~2021. A new species, Eugryllacris tiga sp. nov. is described from China. The male morphology and ecology of E. cf. vaginalis Pictet & Saussure, 1893 and E. guomashan Ingrisch, 2018 are illustrated for the first time. The type species are deposited in Museum of Biology, East China Normal University (ECNU).

A new species of Asteraceae, Youngia jiulongshanensis, is described and illustrated from Mount Jiulong, south-western Zhejiang Province of East China. It most closely resembles Youngia heterophylla, but differs in having smaller oblong basal leaves (vs. basal leaves oblanceolate), lateral lobes of leaves 1–2 pairs (vs. 1‒8 pairs), 5‒7(8) florets in each capitula (vs. 11‒25 florets in each capitula), involucre 5‒6 mm long (vs. 6‒7.5 mm long), inner phyllaries 5 (vs. 8). Observations on pollen grains of Youngia jiulongshanensis and Y. heterophylla detect the pollen grains of the new species are significantly larger than those of Y. heterophylla. Sequences of ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer) and cp DNA demonstrate Youngia heterophylla as the closest extant relative of the new species.
