The diagnosis of Thalassaphorura Bagnall, 1949 is updated and a key to the world species of the genus is given. Thalassaphorura is recorded for the first time in the Guangxi province, where it is well diversified and usually dominant in Collembola communities. Eight species were collected, including 6 species new to science that are described in this paper (Thalassaphorura bapen sp. nov., T. grandis sp. nov., T. pomorskii sp. nov., T. reducta sp. nov., T. tiani sp. nov. and T. tibiotarsalis sp. nov.) and two widespread species newly recorded from China (T. petaloides and T. encarpata). Half of the species (T. encarpata, T. grandis sp. nov., T. petaloides and T. pomorskii sp. nov.) were only represented by females and are assumed to be parthenogenetic, the four other ones are bisexual.

AbstractThe seven species of Lonchaeidae described by de Meijere from south-east Asia (all placed by him in the genus Lonchaea) are redescribed, compared with their relatives, and assigned to their proper genera: Lonchaea minuta, L. pugionata, Silba gibbosa, S. lucens, S. obscuripennis, S. setifera (all from Java), and S. cupraria (from Krakatau). Lectotypes are designated for all except cupraria which is known from the holotype only. L. minuta is a prior name for lambiana Bezzi (= longicornis Lamb). S. obscuripennis (= zopherosa McAlpine) is a junior synonym of S. atratula (Walker). Three new species, L. marshalli from Natal, L. hennigi from Formosa, and S. vanemdeni from Malaya, are described. Keys to the world species of the L. impressifrons and of the S. abstata groups of species are provided. The genitalia of 16 species are figured.

AbstractThe taxonomy and biology of New World species of Chrysolampinae are reviewed with diagnoses given for the subfamily, genera, and species. A key to the species of Chrysolampus and a summary of geographic distribution and information on host and floral associations are presented. Three new species are described from North America (Chrysolampus improcerus, C. luridus and C. elegans); Chrysolampus lycti Crawford is transferred to Perilampus and synonymized with the European species P. micans Dalman. The genus Chrysomalla is recorded in the New World for the first time based on the new species Chrysomalla hesperis. An explanation of the historical biogeography of the genera is proposed that is consistent with Late Cretaceous and Tertiary geological, botanical, and climatic information. It is suggested that the extant species are descendents of elements of a widely distributed arid biota.

Three tiger beetle species, Therates differens Sawada & Wiesner, 1999, Calomera brevipilosa (W. Horn, 1908) and Cosmodela separata (Fleutiaux, 1893), are recorded from Vietnam for the first time. The known tiger beetle fauna of this country is thus raised to a total of 132 species (45, or 34% of which are endemic), what definitely ranges Vietnam among the countries of the world with the richest outstanding entomological biodiversity (km2/species ratio: 2.507).

Ammatucha Turner is recorded for the first time from China, with three species described as new: A. longilepigera Ren & Li, sp. nov., A. brevilepigera Ren & Li, sp. nov., and A. flavipalpa Ren & Li, sp. nov. The female of the genus is reported for the first time, and the generic diagnosis is amended accordingly. Ammatucha is compared to the superficially similar Ceroprepes Zeller. A map of the geographic distribution of Ammatucha for the world is presented, and a key for the identification of all described species based on male genitalia is included.

A resumé of the genus Mylonchulus is presented, including three new species which are described and illustrated, Mylonchulus prodenticulatus, M. sigmaturellus, and M. solus. Males of M. brevicaudatus, M. incurvus, M. index, M. montanus, and M. striatus are described and figured for the first time. Several known species from various parts of the world are redescribed and figured. Relationship of amphid aperture width to the length and width of the buccal cavity and its position in this genus was studied and evaluated for use in taxonomy. Two taxonomic keys are included, one of all known females, the other of all known males.

The diversity of the formicine ant genus Nylanderia is currently underestimated and largely undescribed. This includes the faunas of tropical regions where species richness is typically high. Here, the taxonomy of the West Indian Nylanderia fauna is revised for the first time. Fourteen new species are described, bringing the total number of species known from the region to 22. The new species are: N. bibadia, sp. nov., N. caerula, sp. nov., N. coveri, sp. nov., N. disatra, sp. nov., N. esperanza, sp. nov., N. fuscaspecula, sp. nov., N. lucayana, sp. nov., N. metacista, sp. nov., N. pini, sp. nov., N. semitincta, sp. nov., N. sierra, sp. nov., N. wardi, sp. nov., N. xestonota, sp. nov., and N. zaminyops, sp. nov. There are several introduced species in the region including the globally widespread Old World species N. bourbonica. Other introduced species are N. fulva, N. pubens, N. guatemalensis, and N. steinheili. The following new synonyms are proposed: fulva Mayr 1862 (= fulva cubana Santschi 1930); steinheili Forel 1893 (= steinheili minuta Forel 1893). An identification key is provided for the workers of Nylanderia found in the West Indies. Photomontage images are provided for the worker of each species and when available photomontage and SEM images are provided for males. This work represents another step forward in understanding the diversity of this widespread and commonly encountered ant genus.

A key to the world species of the genus is provided. The two new species show some interesting morphological features such as enlarged clypeal lobes and unusually wide temples, which are not present in any Palaearctic species.
