The Australian genus of Eurybrachidae Stål, 1862 (Hemiptera, Fulgoromorpha) Olonia Stål, 1862 is redescribed and reviewed. Seven new species are described: O. bourgoini sp. nov. (N Queensland, Chillagoe), O. danielsi sp. nov. (N Queensland, Cape York Peninsula), O. guillaumei sp. nov. (N Queensland), O. hochae sp. nov. (N Queensland, Undara), O. monteithi sp. nov. (Queensland), O. rylandae sp. nov. (N Queensland, Chillagoe) and O. soulierae sp. nov. (Queensland). Platybrachys nobilis (Stål, 1863) is transferred to Olonia and the new combination Olonia nobilis (Stål, 1863) comb. nov., is proposed. Olonia ornata Lallemand, 1928 and O. apicalis (Walker, 1851) are removed from Olonia and transferred to Platybrachys Stål, 1859 and Maeniana Metcalf, 1952, respectively. Hence, the new combinations Platybrachys ornata (Lallemand, 1928) comb. nov. and Maeniana apicalis (Walker, 1851) comb. nov. are proposed. The new genus Stalobrachys gen. nov. is described to accommodate Olonia alboapicata Jacobi, 1928 and the new combination S. alboapicata (Jacobi, 1928) gen. et comb. nov. is proposed. The male genitalia are illustrated and photographs of habitus, a distribution map, biological data and an identification key are provided. The genus Olonia currently contains twelve species and the genus Stalobrachys gen. nov. has one species.

Two New Species

Ptychocroca, new genus, is described and illustrated. As presently defined, the genus includes eight species: P. apenicillia, new species, from Chile; P. nigropenicillia, new species, from Chile; P. lineabasalis, new species, from Chile; P. keelioides, new species, from Chile; P. simplex, new species, from Chile; P. crocoptycha (Meyrick), new combination, from Argentina and Chile; P. wilkinsoni (Butler), new combination, from Chile; and P. galenia (Razowski), new combination, from Chile. We present brief diagnoses for the related genera Apotomops Powell and Obraztsov, Bonagota Razowski, Haemateulia Razowski, and Acmanthina Brown, along with descriptions of two new species of Apotomops (A. boliviana and A. spomotopa, new species). We also propose two new combinations, Apotomops carchicola (Razowski and Becker) and A. sololana (Razowski), and the synonymy of Bonagota cranaodes (Meyrick) with B. salubricola (Meyrick).

External Morphology

The genus Gastrodynerus is here revised based on external morphology and male genitalia. Bohart (1984) proposed Gastrodynerus as a new genus with three species: G. vanduzeei (Bohart 1948), G. searsi Bohart, 1984, and G. stangei Bohart, 1984. Later, Rodriguez-Palafox (1996) added G. tacubayae (de Saussure, 1857). Herein, we describe four new species from Central America and South America: G. guatemalensis sp. nov.; G. barretti sp. nov.; G. aimara sp. nov. and G. yungaensis sp. nov. After this taxonomic revision, the Gastrodynerus includes eight species widely distributed in the New World. An identification key is provided for all of the species.

A New Species

A new species of Sogana Matsumura, 1914, S. floreni n. sp., is described from Borneo, Sabah (Malaysia). The species is compared with S. robustocarina Liang & Wang, 2008 and S. stimulata Melichar, 1914, and an addendum to the key to the species of Sogana by Liang & Wang (2008) is given to place the new species. Male genitalia and habitus are illustrated, biological data are provided. A distribution map is given for the 3 species of Sogana known from the Greater Sunda.

The new subgenus Maculergithus subgen. nov. is established to accommodate two new species of the genus Gergithus Stål, 1870 (Issinae, Hemisphaeriini): G. (Maculergithus) tamdao subgen. et sp. nov. and G. (Maculergithus) luteomaculatus subgen. et sp. nov. from Tam Dao National Park in North Vietnam. Two more species from Hainan, China, G. multipunctatus Che, Zhang & Wang, 2007 and G. nonomaculatus Meng & Wang, 2012 are also placed in Maculergithus subgen. nov. A fifth species from Hainan, yet undescribed and erroneously identified as G. multipunctatus in recent papers also belongs to this new subgenus. Illustrations of habitus, morphological details and male genitalia together with a distribution map and an identification key to the species of Maculergithus subgen. nov. are provided. Four species of the genus Gergithus are now recorded in Vietnam. A rectificative note on the misinterpretation of G. multipunctatus in recent publications on Issidae is also provided.

The genus Metipocregyes Breuning, 1939 is reviewed. Hypocacia fruhstorferi Breuning, 1959 and H. wenhsini Yamasako & Chou, 2013 are transferred to Metipocregyes. Three new species of Metipocregyes are described; M. brunneatus sp. nov. from Vietnam, M. holzschuhi sp. nov. from Laos, and M. variabilis sp. nov. from China. With these taxonomic acts, Metipocregyes is comprised of six species and an identification key for them is presented. The habitus, male genitalia, and name-bearing types of all species in this study are figured.

Diving Beetle

Hamadiana chapadensis gen. n. and sp. n. is described based on a single male specimen collected in Central Brazil. The new species belongs to the diving beetle tribe Laccophilini but could not be assigned to any existing genera, therefore a new genus is described to accommodate it. Hamadiana gen. n. is unique among Laccophilini in having the hind margin of the metacoxal process deeply incised and medially slightly protruded backwards. In addition, it differs from other genera of the tribe by having the antennomeres simple, not expanded, the metacoxal lines not straight, and the metatibiae with two simple apical spurs. The habitus, male genitalia, and diagnostic features are illustrated, and a distribution map is provided. A recently published key to Laccophilini is modified to include the new genus.

The Hymenophyllaceae of Queensland are revised following examination of material of all types based on Australian specimens, the unstudied collections made by the 1948 Archbold Cape York Expedition and extensive recent collections by the author. The new combination Hymenophyllum subgenus Chilodium (Didymoglossum subgenus Chilodium Presl) is made; two new species, Hymenophyllum eboracense and Macroglena brassii, are described; and five new combinations proposed: Hymenophyllum novoguineense (H. blumeanum var. novoguineensis Rosenst.), H. polyanthos var. contiguum [H. contiguum D. A. Smith) Tindale], Crepidomanes kurzli* (Trichomanes kurzii Bedd.), Crepidomanes barnardianum subsp. christii [Crepidomanes christii (Copel.) Copel.], and Crepidomanes bipunctatum var, venulosum [Crepidomanes venulosum (Rosenst.) Copel.]. Another species, Reediella endlicheriana is recorded from the Australian mainland for the first time and 42 of the 46 species of Australian Hymenophyllaceae are recognized to occur in Queensland.

Eleven Species

Eidmanacris Chopard, 1956 is revised, redescribed and eleven species are redescribed. Seven new species from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and Cerrado (E. scopula Campos sp. nov., E. gigas Campos sp. nov., E. neomarmorata Campos, sp. nov.; E, desutterae Campos, sp. nov.; E. putuhra Campos, sp. nov.; E. fontanettiae Campos, Nihei & de Mello, sp. nov. and E. melloi Campos, sp. nov.) are described, based on adults. One new generic synonymy with Endophallusia de Mello, 1990 syn. nov., resulting in two new combinations (E. minuta (de Mello, 1990) comb. nov. and E. endophallica (de Mello, 1990) comb. nov.), a new combination with Phalangopsis spelucae Mello-Leitão, 1937 (E. speluncae (Mello-Leitão, 1937) comb. nov.), and one species synonymy (E. lencionii Bolfarini, 2016 = E. dissimilis Desutter-Grandcolas, 1995, syn. nov.) are proposed. Following this revision, Eidmanacris comprises a total of 29 species. An identification key to species, and distribution maps are also given.
