This paper reports on mites of the family Pachylaelapidae collected in Bayburt Province, Turkey, during 2013–2015. Nine species were recorded in the genera Pachyseius, Olopachys, Pachylaelaps, and Onchodellus. Pachylaelaps (Longipachylaelaps) bayburtensis sp. nov., Onchodellus turcicus sp. nov. and O. montanus sp. nov. are described to new, and Pachylaelaps (Longipachylaelaps) vicarus is a new record for the Turkish mite fauna. New records extend the geographic range of Pachyseius masani, Olopachys hallidayi, and O. elongatus in Turkey.

The paper provides additions to the known diversity of Begonia in Vietnam and Laos. One species new to science from Lao PDR (B. vivipara) and three new species from Vietnam (B. aspersa, B. gracilifolia, B. maculifolia) are described. Three species (B. rotundilimba, B. versicolor, B. wenshanensis) are reported as new records for the flora of Vietnam. For each species, the information on ecology, phenology, estimated conservation status and distribution is presented, as well as the relevant taxonomic notes and analytical photographic illustrations.

Recent efforts with Malaise trap sampling in Serra dos Órgãos and Itatiaia, in Brazil, allowed us to identify and describe three new species from the first locality: Hylotribus humeralis sp. nov., H. nanico sp. nov. and H. queirozi sp. nov. New records of H. plaumanni Queiroz & Mermudes, 2014 for both localities and H. sublimis Queiroz & Mermudes, 2014 for the latter are also presented. We also describe morphological variability including aptery and microptery, and male genitalia, for H. plaumanni. We produce a new key to the species and discuss the species relationships and wing variation for the genus.

As a contribution to knowledge of the aquatic beetles of the Neotropical Region, the genus Berosus Leach is recorded for the first time from Roraima State in northern Brazil. Three new species are described and illustrated: Berosus illuviosus sp. n., B. parvus sp. n., and B. andreazzei sp. n. In addition, we present a checklist of the Berosus species collected in 26 ponds in the savanna area of the State of Roraima, with 12 new species records for the state, five of which are also new country records for Brazil.

Three new water mite (Acari: Hydrachnidia) species are described from Tasmania, Tasmanobates separatus sp. nov., Procorticacarus karanovici sp. nov. and Guineaxonopsis tasmanica sp. nov. The material was collected in 2008 during a biological survey by Tom and Ivana Karanović (Hobart, Tasmania) from surface and interstitial waters of Tasmania. Moreover, a detailed description of Litarachna cf. amnicola Cook, 1986 is given.

With the addition here of Laplothrips and Trachynotothrips, six genera of Trichromothrips genus-group are now known from China. Newly recorded from China are ten species of this group described originally from various Asian countries, together with three new species, Trichromothrips antidesmae sp.n., T. guizhouensis sp.n. and T. moundi sp.n.. The male of T. elegans is described, and a key provided to the 16 species of Trichromothrips known from China.

The list of tardigrade species recorded from Belarus is provided; nine were new records for this geographic area and three,Macrobiotus sottilei sp. nov., Paramacrobiotus klymenki sp. nov. and Hypsibius valentinae sp. nov. were new to science.Macrobiotus sottilei sp. nov. had smooth cuticle; eye spots present; the dorsal transverse ridges of the buccal armaturejoined to form a continuous arc; pharyngeal bulb with two macroplacoids and microplacoid; eggs with processes in shapeof inverted goblets with indented distal discs; egg shell with a very dense reticular design.Paramacrobiotus klymenki sp. nov. had smooth cuticle; eye spots absent; buccal armature similar to that of P. areolatus;buccal tube not very wide; stylet supports inserted on the buccal tube at about 80% of its length; pharyngeal bulb withthree macroplacoids; microplacoid absent; eggs with conical processes with a reticular design similar to that of P. areola-tus; egg shell areolated; central area of each areola slightly thickened but not subdivided.Hypsibius valentinae sp. nov. had smooth cuticle; eye spots present; buccal tube very narrow; pharyngeal bulb with twomacroplacoids and a small septulum, claws of the Hypsibius type; small, smooth, flexible lunules present; a short cuticular bar is present between the bases of the claws of the hind legs; no cuticular bar on the first three pairs of legs.

Three new species of the nursery-web spider genus Architis Simon, 1898 are described and illustrated; all collected during spider biodiversity inventories in the Brazilian Amazonia. Architis gracilis Santos sp. nov. is based on a male and A. catuaba Santos sp. nov. on a female specimen, both from the state of Acre, western Brazilian Amazonia. Architis neblina Santos & Nogueira sp. nov. is described from eight females from the Pico da Neblina National Park, state of Amazonas. New records from Brazil are listed for Architis brasiliensis (Mello-Leitão, 1940), A. helveola (Simon, 1898), A. maturaca Santos, 2007 and A. tenuipes (Simon, 1898). The presence of cuspule-like spines on male coxae I, once known only for Architis tenuis Simon, 1898 and A. cymatilis Simon, 1898, are reported for A. maturaca. A remarkable dimorphism in the epigynum of Architis capricorna Carico, 1981 is described based on specimens from southern Brazil. An updated identification key for species of Architis is provided.
