A new species of Haploglenius Burmeister, 1839 from Colombia (H. abdominevittatus Ardila & Jones sp. nov.) is described.This species is unique among members of Haploglenius—which are newly diagnosed here under a slightly revised definitionby the presence of three rows of anal cells in the hind wing—in having both a well-developed axillary angle and a highly exca-vated posterior margin at the base of the forewing, characters normally distinctive of other Neotropical genera of Haploglenii-nae. This species also exhibits unique color patterning on the abdomen. The male genitalia are illustrated, a first for species in the genus.

A New Species

The diagnostic characters for Sinopalaeocossus Hong, 1983, belonging to the Palaeontinidae Handlirsch, 1906, are revised. This genus is remarkably different from others in the fore wing, whose branches of Sc are obscure and antenodal region is square; and in the hind wing, whose M 3+4 is unbranched and arises from stem M, whose M 1+2 fork is more distal and A 1 is absent. A new species, Sinopalaeocossus trinervus sp. nov., is described based on two well preserved specimens from the Middle Jurassic of Daohugou, Inner Mongolia, China; this is the first palaeontinid specimen with complete fore and hind wings articulated.

A New Species

The Blacinae Foerster, 1862 is a cosmopolitan subfamily of Braconidae (Hymenoptera), with five tribes and 14 genera (van Achterberg 1976, 1988). The genus Xyeloblacus van Achterberg, 1997 is the only member of the tribe Xyeloblacini van Achterberg with two known species in the world (van Achterberg and Altenhofer, 1997; Yu et al., 2005). van Achterberg and Altenhofer (1997) mentioned four important characters for Xyeloblacus as follows: the straight ventral margin of the clypeus, the crenulate anterior subalar depression, the curved vein 1-1A of fore wing, and the presence of vein 2A of hind wing. The members of this genus are parasitoids of Xyela spp. (Xyeloidea: Xyelidae) (van Achterberg and Altenhofer, 1997).

Unusual Finding

A new species of Pogonophora obtained from one station at a depth of 25 m from near the Dikson Island in the Kara Sea is described. Galathealinum karaense sp. nov. is one of the largest pogonophorans, the first known representative of the rare genus Galathealinum Kirkegaard, 1956 in the Eurasian part of the Arctic Ocean and a highly unusual finding for the desalted shallow of the Yenisey Gulf. Several characters occurring in the new species are rare or unique among the congeners: under-developed, hardly discernible frills on the tube segments, extremely thin felted fibres in the external layer of the tube, and very faintly separated papillae in the anterior part of the trunk. Morphological characters useful in distinguishing species within the genus Galathealinum are defined and summarised in a table. Diagnosis of the genus Galathealinum is emended and supplemented by new characters. Additionally, three taxonomic keys are provided to the species of Galathealinum and to the known species of the Arctic pogonophorans using either animals or their empty tubes only, with the brief zoogeographical information on each Arctic species.

A New Species

A new species of Polycentrusis described from the rio Negro, in Brazil. It is distinguished from P. schomburgkii by the presence of two dark postocular and one subocular band, all smaller than orbital diameter, blunt snout, isognathous mouth, reduction of the serrations on the lower edge of the lacrimal-spines ranging from zero to two tiny spines at the posterior end, intensely serrated edge of the interopercle, fully serrated posterior edge of the vertical arm of the preopercle, presence of five pungent opercular spines, subopercle broadly serrated along most of its posterior ventral edge, presence of serrations dorsally on the posterior margin of the cleithrum, fourth ray of pectoral fin reaching the vertical through the anal-fin origin, 19-21 predorsal scales, 19-20 scales on dorsal-fin base, 12-14 scales on anal-fin base, and absence of a median opercular blotch.

A New Species

A new species of slipper lobster of the genus Petrarctus Holthuis, 2002 was discovered from southwestern India during a survey of deep sea crustaceans. The new species closely resembles P. veliger Holthuis, 2002 from the Andaman Sea and western Pacific but differs mainly in the color marking on abdominal somite I, having a relatively lower cardiac tooth but with better developed tubercles on the abdomen, as well as a differently shaped anterior part of the thoracic sternum. Molecular genetic analysis also confirms the distinct taxonomic status of the new species. To fix the identity of the type species of the genus, a neotype of P. rugosus (H. Milne Edwards, 1837) was selected from a recently collected Indian specimen with color and genetic information.
