This paper describes one new genus Pseudoseliza gen. n. and one new species P. crassiprocessa sp. n. of Flatidae from China. The new genus is assigned to the tribe Selizini of the subfamily Flatinae. A key to genera of the tribe Selizini from the Oriental Region is proposed and a checklist of all known species of the tribe from the Oriental Region is provided.

The Helina obtusipennis species-group is erected for nine species of Helina in the Palaearctic and Oriental regions, namely H. atlantica (Tiensuu), H. ciliatocosta (Zetterstedt), H. eurymetopa Emden, H. macrocera Hennig, H. mandschurica Hennig, H. medogensis sp. nov., H. obtusipennis (Fallén), H. setigera (Pokorny), and H. spinicosta ( Zetterstedt). These species are Palaearctic in distribution except for H. eurymetopa Emden and H. medogensis, which are known from the Oriental Region. Members of this group can be easily differentiated from those of other Helina species-groups by their broad frons in both sexes with one or two pairs of upper orbital setae. A key to the males of the H. obtusipennis species-group is given.

Empidideicus Becker, 1907 is newly recorded from China and the Oriental Region, with one new species, E. pentagoniussp. n., described and illustrated. Observations are provided on the biology of E. pentagoniussp. n. visiting flowers of Stemona mairei (Levl.) Krause (Liliflorae, Stemonaceae). A key to the genera of Mythicomyiidae known to occur in China is provided.

Based on the specimens of chalcid parasitoid wasps collected by malaise traps set in fruit orchards in the adjacent area of Ha Noi city from 2018–2019, one new species of the genus Trigonura, T.  vietnamica Long, sp. n., was described and illustrated. Two species of this genus from Vietnam are keyed, the comparative characters of the new species were also given to compare with two similar species from the Oriental Region, T. indica Narendran and T. luzonensis Narendran.

The oribatid mite genus Sadocepheus Aoki, 1965 is recorded for the first time from the Philippines; one new species is described from the leaf litter of secondary forest in Mindanao Island. Sadocepheus donvictorianoensis Ermilov & Corpuz-Raros sp. nov. differs from the most similar species, S. elevatus Mahunka, 1987 by the larger body size, long medial and short lateral teeth of the lamellae and shorter adanal setae. Revised generic diagnosis and the data on distribution and ecology of Sadocepheus species are presented.

The taxonomy of Old World Trigonidiinae (sword-tailed crickets) is in need of major revision. This includes its type genus Trigonidium. Various authors have different opinions on what constitutes the subgenera and species of Trigonidium s. l. and this has led to considerable confusion and inconsistencies. Recent use of molecular data has helped make some progress in resolving some of these problems, but there are still limitations. In this paper, we aim to provide a baseline to resolve the confusion in the taxonomy of Trigonidium s. l. Firstly, we provide a literature review of the contentious taxa related to Trigonidium and also provide some recommendations on future work for Trigonidium s. l. Secondly, we reanalysed the gene tree (sensu Lu et al., 2018) using more DNA sequences from GenBank to test whether Trigonidium s. str. and Paratrigonidium should be considered separate genera or subgenera of Trigonidium s. l. However, the gene tree based on current data was not conclusive. Lastly, we describe a new species of Trigonidium s. str. from Siargao Island, Mindanao (Philippines): Trigonidium solis sp. nov.

Six species of the weevil genus Orchidophilus Buchanan are recognized: O. epidendri (Murray) comb. n. (=Acythopeus genuinus Pascoe syn. n., =Baris orchivora Blackburn syn. n., =Apotomorhinus orchidearum Kolbe syn. n.), O. aterrimus (Waterhouse), O. eburifer (Pascoe) comb. n. (=Acythopeus gilvonotatus Barber syn. n.), O. peregrinator Buchanan, O. ran Morimoto and O. insidiosus Prena sp. n. These species appear to be native to Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore but are dispersed frequently with orchid cultivars by global trade. Orchidophilus aterrimus has been intercepted most frequently and now is established in several Indo-Pacific regions outside its native range. Nearly as common as, and occasionally confused with, the former is O. epidendri. Orchidophilus ran is of some significance in Japan and Korea, while O. peregrinator, O. eburifer and O. insidiosus were intercepted occasionally at scattered locations before 1970. An identification key for the six species is provided. Lectotypes are designated for Baridius aterrimus Waterhouse, Acythopeus genuinus Pascoe, Baris orchivora Blackburn and Apotomorhinus orchidearum Kolbe; a neotype is designated for Centrinus epidendri Murray.
