The genus Lamellitettigodes Günther, 1939 from Southeast Asia is reviewed. The genus currently includes seven species and is transferred to Tetriginae Rambur, 1838. Two new species are described: Lamellitettigodes novaeguineaesp. nov. from New Guinea and Lamellitettigodes karwinkelisp. nov. from Yunnan, People’s Republic of China. Lamellitettigodes palawanicus Günther, 1939 stat. nov. is no longer regarded as a subspecies of L. contractus, but a separate species. Two species are transferred from Euparatettix Hancock, 1904 to Lamellitettigodes: Lamellitettigodes sagittatus (Bolívar, 1887) comb. nov. and Lamellitettigodes cultratus (Bolívar, 1898) comb. nov. One species is transferred from Tetrix Latreille, 1802 to Lamellitettigodes - Lamellitettigodes signatus (Bolívar, 1887) comb. nov. Xistra tricristata sumatrana Bolívar, 1898 syn. nov., Xistra tricristata Bolívar, 1898 syn. nov., and Probolotettix corticolus Blackith & Blackith, 1987 syn. nov. are synonymized with Lamellitettigodes contractus (Bolívar, 1887). Probolotettix kevani Blackith & Blackith, 1987 syn. nov. is synonymized with Euparatettix personatus (Bolívar, 1887). Additionally, in the genus Lamellitettix Hancock, 1904, Lamellitettix acutus Hancock, 1904 stat. rev. is retransferred from a subspecies of Lamellitettix gallinaceus (Stål, 1877) to a separate species status.

Only two genera of the cosmopolitan tribe Cephenniini are known to occur in the People's Republic of China: Cephennodes Reitter and Cephennomicrus Reitter. The former is species-rich and abundant, especially in subtropical and sub-Himalayan areas, and so far nearly 80 species have been recorded in China. Cephennomicrus is rare, and only two species have been found in this vast country, in the south-eastern province of Fujian. Two new species are reported to occur in Yunnan: Cephennomicrus yunnanicus sp. n. and C. andreasi sp. n.

AbstractWe examined and keyed out the subgenera of the genus Lepidocyrtus mostly created by Yoshii. Although many of these subgenera of the genus Lepidocyrtus are difficult to apply in Europe, America, and Africa, they are easily applicable in East and Southeast Asia. The species of Southeast Asia are placed in these subgenera and a key to the subgenera is provided. A new species, Lepidocyrtus (Lanocyrtus) felpei from Xinjiang, People's Republic of China, is described and the species Lepidocyrtus (Lanocyrtus) fimetarius Gisin is redescribed. Although the Lepidocyrtus fauna of the whole of East Asia differs from the Holarctic fauna, the Central and Northeast Asian fauna are similar in subgeneric make up to the North American fauna, slightly less similar to the European fauna, and totally unlike the Southeast Asian fauna.

The authors of paper “Two new species of Pestalotiopsis from Southern China” regret that the affiliation of Bin Zhang is incorrect. His affiliation is “Plant Protection and Quarantine Station, Guiyang City, 550081, People’s Republic of China”, thus the superscript of his name should be changed from “1” to “3”.

A new species, Anteon amabilis, is described from the People’s Republic of China (Zhejiang Prov., Baishanzu). Also Dryinidae were collected and studied from Xizang Zhang Autonomous Region (= Tibet) for the first time that resulted in the discovery and description of the previously unknown male of Anteon fidum Olmi. Additions to the Xu et al. (2000) key are provided so that these species can be discriminated.

In 1988, an incomplete skeleton of a stegosaurian dinosaur was found in Lower Cretaceous strata of the Ordos Basin of China by the Dinosaur Project (China – Canada – Alberta – Ex Terra). The material includes an articulated series of vertebrae from the last three cervicals to the first five caudals, and the right ilium. The specimen is identified as a new species called Wuerhosaurus ordosensis. It is the only Lower Cretaceous stegosaur known with an articulated series of dorsal vertebrae, which have been reduced to eleven in number.

Eight new species of the genus Quedius Stephens, 1829, subgenus Raphirus Stephens, 1829 are presented, based on spec-imens from the People’s Republic of China: Q. hegesias (Yunnan), Q. filiolus (Yunnan), Q. hecato (Yunnan), Q. impres-siventris (Sichuan), Q. tergimpressus (Yunnan), Q. dryas (Yunnan), Q. meilixue (Yunnan), Q. zetes (Sichuan). Threespecies, Q. muscicola Cameron, 1932, Q . maculiventris Bernhauer, 1934 and Q. optabilis Bernhauer, 1934 are rede-scribed and illustrated. Each of the new species and of the species previously known is described, illustrated and all avail-able distributional and bionomic data are given. A key to the winged species of the muscicola- group is given. A newspecies, Quedius pseudonymos, is described from Taiwan, based on specimens that were previously recorded from Taiwan by Smetana (1995) under the name Q. maculiventris Bernhauer, 1934.
