Two new species of Dzhanokmenia Kostjukov (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae: Tetrastichinae), D. stefaniolae Li, Wang & Hu, sp. nov. and D. yuxuannis Li, Wang & Hu, sp. nov., are described and illustrated from Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China. D. stefaniolae was reared from stem-galls made by Stefaniola sp. (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) on black saxaul, Haloxylon ammodendron (Chenopodiaceae); D. yuxuannis was collected by sweeping from both black saxaul and white saxaul, H. persicum, in Beishawo Desert near Fukang. A key to females of all known species of Dzhanokmenia is provided.

Four species of Tumidiclava Girault are recorded from Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China. Two new species, T. buerjinica Triapitsyn & Aishan sp. nov. and T. tamariska Hu & Aishan sp. nov., are described; the former is also known from Turkmenistan and the latter from Israel. One Palaearctic species, T. subcaudata Nowicki, is newly recorded from China, and a key to females of the Chinese species is given. Taxonomic notes and illustrations are provided on these and also other described taxa of Tumidiclava from the Holarctic region, both sexes of which are keyed including the type species of the genus, T. pulchrinotum Girault (USA), whose male is newly described. Lectotypes are designated for Orthoneura bimaculata Blood & Kryger, 1928 and T. (Orthoneurella) minuscula Nowicki, 1940 and a neotype is designated for Orthoneura bimaculata Blood, 1923.

Two leuctrid species of the Rhopalopsole magnicerca group are described as new, R. brevicula sp. nov. and R. jizushana sp. nov. from the Guangxi Autonomous Region of southern China, bordering Vietnam and Yunnan Province of southwestern China, respectively. The new species are compared with related taxa.

Two new species, Flavoperla retusata Mo, Li & Wang, sp. nov. and F. yangi Mo, Li & Murányi, sp. nov. are proposed from the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of southern China. Distinctness of the new species is based on morphological characters and DNA sequence comparisons with their closest known relative, F. galerispina Mo, Wang & Li, 2020. The taxonomic relationships of the two new species and related congeners are discussed.

The genera Abaria Mosely 1948 and Drepanocentron Schmid 1982 are recorded in China for the first time. In this study, two new species, Abaria herringbona sp. nov., from Guang-xi, and Drepanocentron fuxiensis sp. nov., from An-hui, are described and illustrated. Male genitalia of these two new species is distinguishable from those of other Abaria and Drepanocentron species. In addition, Melanotrichia attia Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1992 is a new record for the Chinese caddisfly fauna.

First records of peracarid crustaceans obtained from the Cayo Matías Ocean Blue Hole, southwestern Cuba, aredocumented. In addition, two new species of isopod and amphipod are herein described. Gnathia micheli n. sp. (Isopoda,Gnathiidae) and Boca normae n. sp. (Amphipoda, Aristiidae) were associated with filamentous algae at a depth of 20 m.Both represent the first report for a blue hole and the amphipod constitutes the first record of the genus for Cuba and theCaribbean Sea. Three other isopods, i.e. Gnathostenetroides sp., Cirolana parva, and Cirolana crenulitelson, and the cumacean Procampylaspis sp. are documented for the first time from the same blue hole.

Two new species of the genus Allopachria Zimmermann, 1924: A. elongata sp. nov. and A. yanfengi sp. nov. fromGuangxi Autonomous Region, China are described, illustrated and compared with related species. Allopachria ernsti We-walka, 2002 is recorded from China (Guangxi) for the first time. In addition, a figure of the paramere of Allopachrialiselotteae Wewalka, 2000 is presented and corrected, and the identification of A. dieterlei Wewalka, 2000, recorded from Jiangxi province by Bian & Ji (2010), is changed to A. miaowangi Wewalka, 2010.

Cecidological and taxonomic investigations of members of the aphid tribe Nipponaphidini (Aphididae: Hormaphidinae) are proceeding very slowly owing to the rarity of galls and difficulty in distinguishing morphologies. We describe here two new Nipponaphidini species that induce galls on the primary host, Distylium racemosum Siebold & Zucc. (Isu tree, Hamamelidaceae), from Taiwan. One is designated Monzenia minuta sp. n. which induces a closed spherical gall on twigs of D. racemosum. The other one is designated as a new genus, Tripartita gen. n., and new species, formosana sp. n. which can induce open, spindle-like galls on leaves of D. racemosum and also on leaves of Distyliopsis dunnii (J.H.Hemsl.) Endress (Hamamelidaceae). This is the first report of the same hormaphidine aphid species inducing galls on two distinct primary hosts. Here we provide morphological diagnoses and cecidological information for both new species.
