AbstractAn examination of the female genitalia of forms belonging to the redimicula complex of the genus Euxoa disclosed that the group consists of four species, redimicula (Morrison), servita (Smith), auripennis new species, and arizonensis new species. Diagnostic characters of the species in the group are discussed. A discriminant analysis was successfully used on characters of the male genitalia to segregate the males. A key to females and males of the species and subspecies of the redimicula group is included.

Bergiantina, a new Agaristinae genus, is described. The genus contains 8 species. Three were previously assigned to Aucula Walker: Metagarista hilzingeri Berg, Euthisanotia magnifica Schaus, and Aucula schausi Jörgensen. Two were previously assigned to Erocha Walker: Heterocampa dolens Druce and Erocha trita Druce. Three new species are described: Bergiantina intermedia, B. parva, and B. familiae. Bergiantina can be distinguished from other Agaristinae by its distinctive forewing pattern with white patches or stripes associated with the postmedial line. Other diagnostic characters include: male genitalia with moderately asymmetric valves, aedoeagus with an apical sclerotized horn-like dorsal projection, and female genitalia with a thin, membranous ductus bursae 3x as long as anterior apophysis. Adults and male and female genitalia are described and illustrated, and a key to species provided. One new synonymy is established and two lectotypes are designated.

Two New Species

Hydraena (Hydraenopsis) josefinae sp. nov. and H. (H.) pernambucana sp. nov. are described respectively from Amapá and Pernambuco States, Brazil. Hydraena (H.) josefinae sp. nov. is a member of the scintillabella subgroup of the leechi group, while H. (H.) pernambucana sp. nov. belongs to the orcula complex in the marginicollis subgroup of the marginicollis group. Descriptions and diagnostic characters for both new species are offered; habitus photographs and line drawings of male genitalia of the two new species, as well as drawings of female genitalia of H. josefinae sp. n., are provided. Male genitalia of H. alterra Perkins, 1980 is illustrated and compared with that of the closely related H. josefinae sp. nov. Habitat and distributional data of the two new species are also included.

AbstractThe taxonomy, phylogeny and zoogeography of the thirteen species of the subgenus Schoyenia known from the Holarctic region are reviewed. Four species are described as new: X. thula from northern U.S.S.R. and northern Canada; X. woodi from Yukon Territory, Canada; X. magadanensis from Chukotka, U.S.S.R., and X. fergusoni from Alaska. A new subspecies of X. lyngei. Xestia lyngeí aborigenea from Magadanskaya Oblast', is described. Three species and five generic names are placed in synonymy for the first time and seven new combinations are proposed. Two lectotypes are designated. Illustrations of adults and male genitalia, and range maps, are given for each species. Female genitalia of nine species are illustrated. The larvae of four species, X. intermedia (Konon.), X. aequaeva (Benj.), X. bryanti (Benj.) and X. lyngei (Reb.) are described and illustrated; the cremasters of the pupae are also described and illustrated.

The genus Dioscore Warren, 1907 is reviewed. Diagnostic characters are listed for the genus and species included, the male genitalia are described for the first time for seven species and the female genitalia for three species. Two new species are described from Papua Indonesia: Dioscore kirke Lindt, Lennuk & Viidalepp, sp. nov. and Dioscore vilu Lindt, Lennuk & Viidalepp, sp. nov. The genus with its ten species is endemic to New Guinea and nearby islands; its taxonomic affinities are discussed.

The article describes four new species of Alucitidae in the genus Triscaedecia from the Malay and Polynesian regions: Triscaedecia sulawesi Ustjuzhanin, Kovtunovich & Hobern sp. nov., T. sarawaki Ustjuzhanin, Kovtunovich & Hobern sp. nov., T. svetlanae Ustjuzhanin, Kovtunovich & Hobern sp. nov., and T. suva Ustjuzhanin, Kovtunovich & Hobern sp. nov. The female genitalia of Triscaedecia dactyloptera Hampson, 1905 and the adult and the male genitalia of Triscaedecia septemdactyla (Pagenstecher, 1900) are described and illustrated for the first time.

Partial Revision

The genus Robinsonia Grote, 1866 is partially reviewed following a large DNA barcode campaign. In the Robinsonia praphoea Dognin, 1906 group three new species are described: R. simulans sp. n. from French Guiana, up to now confused with R. praphoea itself and then R. decaensi sp. n. and R. maranhensis sp. n. both from the lower Amazon. R. drechseli sp. n. is described from Paraguay and R. inexpectata sp. n., a species close to R. mera (Schaus, 1910) from Costa Rica, is described as new from Peru and Bolivia. Finally the full species status is confirmed for R. flavicorpus Dognin, 1910 which is found to be differentiable from R. marginata Rothschild, 1909. All types are figured along with the male genitalia for most and some female genitalia for all studied species.

Mangabea troglodytes sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae: Emesinae) is described based on four specimens collected in a cave of the Namoroka Karstic System, Madagascar, and deposited in the Collection of the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris.
