The genus Ischnothyreus Simon, 1893 is one of the most speciose genera of Oonopidae, with 114 extant species mainly distributed in the Old World. Currently, 16 species have been recorded in China. Two species of the genus Ischnothyreus Simon, 1893 from China are recognised, including one new species, I. yunlong Tong & Li, sp. n. (male, female) from Yunnan. Ischnothyreus yueluensis Yin & Wang, 1984 is re-studied. Descriptions, diagnoses and photos of the two species are provided.

Dryinus Latreille, the most diverse genus of Dryininae (Hymenoptera: Dryinidae), has a worldwide distribution with 268 extant species, of which 103 are reported from the Neotropics. Only eight species of Dryinidae have been recorded in Uruguay, none of them belong to genus Dryinus. In this study, we describe the first species of Dryinus in Uruguay, Dryinus rogeriae nov. sp. and expanded the geographical distribution of D. bocainanus (Olmi) based on specimens collected in eastern Uruguay. We illustrate the studied species and provide a distributional map.

A New Species

The small braconid subfamily, Ichneutinae is one of the least studied groups within the Braconidae. Old world species of the widely distributed ichneutine genus, Paroligoneurus (unknown from the Neotropical region) is revised along with description of a new species, P. harishi Ranjith & van Achterberg sp. nov. We reinstate the genera Anaprixia Mason and Muesebeckia Mason based on the following characters; exodont mandibles and absence of spiracles in the alternate tergites (in Anaprixia) and presence of carinae on propodeum and anterior subalar depression with carina (in Muesebeckia). Five species, Paroligoneurus cosmopterygivorus (He, 2000), P. crassicornis (He, 2000), P. flavifacialis (He, 2000), P. sinensis (He, 2000) and P. songyangensis (He, 2000) were described from the Oriental part of China are transferred from Oligoneurus to Paroligoneurus. A taxonomic key to the Old world species Paroligoneurus and a provisional checklist of extant species are provided.

One New Species

A new and morphologically unusual genus of microgastrine Braconidae, Kiwigaster Fernandez-Triana, Whitfield and Ward, with one new species, K. variabilis Fernandez-Triana and Ward, is described from New Zealand, where it is widespread. A number of morphological features mark it as unique among Microgastrinae, the most striking being the males and females having different numbers of antennal flagellomeres (females 17, males 18). Other unusual characters suggest this may be the most early-diverging extant species of the subfamily, although comprehensive phylogenetic analyses have yet to be conducted. Nothing is yet known about its host(s) or other aspects of its biology.

Familial Classification

AbstractThe Buxaceae constitute a morphologically diverse phylogenetic lineage of six genera, which includes about 140 species. The most well-known genera are Buxus, Sarcococca, and Pachysandra. Few species of woody Styloceras grow on mid-elevations in the Andes mountains region. Didymeles, with three species endemic to Madagascar, and the monotypic Haptanthus from Honduras, are the most unusual members of the group. The infra-familial classification of Buxaceae is controversial, and molecular data about many species, especially Old World, is still lacking. We used broad taxonomic sampling and molecular data from four chloroplast markers, and the nuclear ribosomal ITS to estimate their phylogeny. These data provide phylogenetic placements of 50 species and enabled better estimates of boundaries in Buxaceae. We described two subfamilies, two monotypic genera, two Buxus subgenera, and one new species of Didymeles from Madagascar.

AbstractOnly one species of Anoetidae was previously recorded associated with North American Scolytidae. Five new species of Anoetus and one new species of Bonomoia associated with North American bark beetles are described. Two nomen novum (due to homonymy) in the genus Anoetus are proposed. Anoetus varia is distinguished from A. gordius, a European species restricted to Ips laricis. Anoetus varia is recorded from 17 scolytids infesting 10 conifer species from 14 states and provinces. An annotated list, with new nomenclatorial combinations in many cases, of the 13 anoetids recorded associated with scolytids in the old world is given. Histiostoma is synonymized under Anoetus.

One New Species

The genus Mycterothrips, with 36 species worldwide, is primarily Holarctic, but with several species occurring in the Old World tropics including Australia and Africa (ThripsWiki 2019). The species apparently all feed and breed on leaves, although adults can disperse widely onto many plants. An identification key to 27 species was provided (Masumoto & Okajima 2006), but seven further species were subsequently described from Iran (Mirab-balou et al. 2011; Alavi et al. 2013; Minaei et al. 2017) and a key for distinguishing nine species from this country was presented by Alavi et al. (2013). Recently two further new species were described from tea plants together with a key for 10 species in China (Li et al. 2017).

Based on the type materials deposited in the Trouessart collection (Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris, France), the six formerly known species of the feather mite genus Protolichus Megnin et Trouessart, 1884 (Pterolichidae: Pterolichinae) are redescribed: Protolichus brachiatus Trouessart, 1884, P. magnificus Favette et Trouessart, 1904, P. strangulatus Favette et Trouessart, 1904 (brachiatus group), P. casuarius Trouessart, 1884, P. crassior Trouessart, 1884, and P. gratus Favette et Trouessart, 1904 (crassior group). One new species of the brachiatus group found in the examined materials is described: Protolichus sigillator sp. n. from Chalcopsitta scintillata chloroptera (Salvadori, 1876) (Psittacidae: Loriinae). A new expanded diagnosis for the genus Protolichus is provided and a key to all known species is constructed for the first time. Known host associations of Protolichus species with parrots of the Old World are critically revised. Mites of this genus are apparently restricted to lories and lorikeets (Loriinae) distributed in the Australian and Indo Malayan regions, particularly to representatives of the genera Chalcopsitta, Charmosyna, Lorius, Pseudeos, and Trichoglossus, while other formerly recorded hosts, including those from other subfamilies of parrots, seem to be results of accidental contaminations.

As a result of study of 18 samples, collected in Lake Teletskoye and inflowing rivers in 1992–1995, 34 diatom species of the genus Navicula Bory were found. Among them 21 taxa are new for the studied region, 7 species (Navicula arkona, N. hangaica, N. cf. pseudoreinhardtii, N. ricardae, N. scaniae, N. schweigeri, N. suecicarum) are recorded for the first time in Russia. One new species (N. pseudoharmoniae sp. nov.) is described. It is compared with N. harmoniae and N. digitoconvergens.
