Abstract>The status of the genus Plega is discussed and a preliminary survey of the North American species is presented. Plega yucatanae, a new species reared from the cells of Megachile exaltata Smith, is described and compared with its near relatives. The immature stages are described and biological information is given.

A New Species

I am hardly prepaled at present to accept Isodontia elegans, Smith, as a variety of I. apicalis, Smith. The differences between the two seem to be very constant, and their distribution appears to be somewhat different, elegans being more a southern and western form, while apicalis occurs chiefly in the central, eastern and northern States.

A New Species

Adults of Odontocepheus rumbleseatus n.sp. are described, the second Odontocepheus species known from North America. An unusual, deep posterior depression on the notogaster easily separates this species from all others in the genus Odontocepheus. Specimens were collected from hardwood leaf litter and rotten wood. The known distribution is Illinois and West Virginia south to northern Florida. Additional characters for separating the North American species O. oblongus (Banks) from O. elongatus (Michael) in Europe are presented, and the presence of O. elongatus in North America is documented.

A New Species

The North American species were discussed by Fall (1923), under the name Agaporus Zimmermann (1919: 192) . However, as has been pointed out by Giugnot and F. Balfour-Browne, Agaporus, with Hydroporus oblongus Stephens as its type, is a synonym of Laccornis Des Gozis (1914: 111). Des Gozis proposed Laccornis as a subgenus of Hydroporus, with H. oblongus as the type and only species mentioned.

Lower Molar

A lower molar of a new species of rodent, Prosciurus? shantungensis, from the subsurface of eastern China adds to the diversity of the known Asian prosciurine aplodontids and increases the likelihood that aplodontids were widespread in Eurasia during the Oligocene. This form is structurally close to the North American prosciurine aplodontids, especially Prosciurus relictus from the middle Oligocene. The metaconid is strongly compressed and reduced in height, a condition partially developed in P. relictus but here more extreme. Height of the mesoconid and the degree of lophodonty are more advanced than in North American species of Prosciurus. P.? shantungensis differs from the prosciurine-like lower dentitions from Kazakhstan and Mongolia described by Argyropulo (1939) and Kowalski (1974) in crest development and in details of the cusp morphology. Types of the Asian prosciurine or presumed prosciurine species are upper dentitions for which associated lower dentitions are unknown, yet the slope of the crests in Prosciurus lohiculus is too low to match the occlusal surface in P.? shantungensis and the degree of lophodonty in P. arboraptus is less than would be expected for the upper dentition of the Shantung form.

A New Species

A new species of acarid mite, Naiadacarus sidorchukae sp. n., is described from phoretic deutonymphs collected from a European spruce bark beetle, Ips typographus, pheromone trap in Western Siberia, Russia. Morphologically, the new species is very similar to the North American species, Naiadacarus fashingi, with the only diagnostic character being the shorter tibial solenidion φ II in the former species. Unlike some Naiadacarus species, which are truly aquatic, Naiadacarus sidorchukae probably does not inhabit fully aquatic habitats. This species and other presumably non-aquatic taxa, may represent the ancestral condition in the genus Naiadacarus, and, therefore are critical in studying land to water ecological transitions that have occurred in this mite genus. The monotypic genus Naiacus Nesbitt, 1990 is considered as a junior synonym of Naiadacarus Fashing, 1974 (syn. n.), with its type-species, Naiacus muertensis Nesbitt, 1990, recombined as Naiadacarus muertensis (Nesbitt, 1990), comb. n. A key to species of Naiadacarus of the world is provided
