A New Species

A new genus and species of panchaetothripine thripid, Stosicthrips szitas, apparently related to Parthenothrips dracaenae, is described from leaves of a cultivated Grevillea (Proteaceae) in central Queensland and also at Perth, Australia. In another genus, Bhattithrips, a new species B. borealis is described from northern Australia, and the four members of this Australian genus are distinguished in a key. A species described from Southeast Asia, Astrothrips aureolus, is established and probably native to northern Australia, where it damages the leaves of an Hymenocallis cultivar (Amaryllidaceae).

S. munroi, sp. nov.. is described from northern Australia and southern Papua New Guinea. It has been confused with S. niphonius of the north-western Pacific because both are spotted species with many (19-22) dorsal spines. S. niphonius is unique among the 18 species of the genus in having a straight intestine; S. munroi, like most other species of Scomberomorus, has two loops and three limbs to the intestine. S. munroi has more vertebrae (50-52) than S. niphonius (48-50) and most other species of Australian Scomberomorus (S. commerson 42-46, S. queenslandicus 48-49, S. semifasciatus 44-46), except for S. multiradiatus from Papua New Guinea (55-56). S. munroi has a deeper body and a longer postorbital distance than S. niphonius.

A New Species

The Australian pyralid stem borers of Gramineae, Cyperaceae, and Juncaceae, previously assigned to Schoenobius Duponchel and Scirpophaga Treitschke, are here referred to six genera. Scirpophaga Treit. - Eight species are recognized: S. chrysorrhoa Zeller, S. phaedima, sp. nov., S. limnochares, sp. nov., S. xantharrenes, sp. nov., S. imparella (Meyrick), S. helodes, sp. nov., S. percna, sp. nov., and S. ochroleuca (Meyrick). Though some of these bear a superficial resemblance to the true rice stem borers, the genus includes species whose larvae attack sedges (Cyperaceae). Helonastes, gen. nov. - The genus is based on a new species, H. acentrus, associated with Eleocharis (Cyperaceae) in central Queensland. Niphadoses, gen. nov.-The genus is erected to include three new Australian species, N. palleucus, which is associated with cultivated rice in north-western Australia, N. elachia, and N. hoplites, together with N. chionotus (Meyrick) from New Guinea and N. gilbiverbis (Zeller) from India. Catagela Walker. - A new species, C. adoceta, from northern Australia, is described. Tryporyza gen. nov. - The genus is established to receive the two important stem-borer pests of cultivated rice, Tipanaea innotata Walker from south-east Asia and northern Australia and Chilo incertulas Walker from south-east Asia, previously referred to Scirpophaga and Schoenobius respectively. Also included are Scirpophaga butyrota Meyrick from New Guinea and Schoenobius melanostigmus Turner from the Cape York Peninsula. It is suggested that T. innotata already occurred in northern Australia before European settlement. Tipanaea Walker. - The genus is restricted to the single Australian species, T. patulella Walker, associated with Juncaceae. Genitalic and other structures used to distinguish these genera are discussed. The genitalia of both sexes and the wings of the Australian species are figured, and keys to the genera and species are included.

Ctenus bimaculatus Taczanowski, 1874, is removed from the synonymy of Ancylometes rufus (Walkenaer, 1837) and transferred to the genus Cupiennius Simon, 1891, in which it is placed as a senior synonym of Cupiennius celerrimus Simon, 1891. New records are presented for C. bimaculatus (TACZANOWSKI 1874) and a new species, C. vodou, is described from Haiti.

New Distribution

Six species are recognised in the genus Lefroyothrips, including one new species from Australia. The metascutal chaetotaxy of two of these species is unique amongst Thripidae. New distribution records given here indicate that four of the species are widely distributed: L. pictus across tropical Africa, L. lefroyi from northern India to Taiwan, L. fasciatus from Malaysia to northern Australia and New Guinea, and L. varatharajani from southern India to New Caledonia and northern Australia. An illustrated key is provided to the six known species in this genus.

A New Species

Morphological studies of Lechenaultia filiformis R.Br. have determined that more than one taxon is presently included under that name. We here recognise the suite of disjunct populations from north-east Queensland, north-east Northern Territory, New Guinea and the Moluccas as a new species, Lechenaultia peregrina R.W.Jobson & R.L.Barrett. This is the third tropical species of Lechenaultia currently recognised, however further studies are required to assess the status of about five additional entities in the Northern Territory and Western Australia currently included in L. filiformis s.l. Seed article morphology is critical for species delimitation in tropical Lechenaultia, but seed articles are often absent from collections, or only immature, as they fall quickly once ripe.

A New Species

A new species of Amanita sect. Roanokenses, A. brunneofolia, from South Korea, is described based on morphological and molecular evidences. The species is characterized by medium- to large-sized basidiomata, a greenish white pileus covered with brownish, floccose pyramidal volval remnants, an appendiculate margin, reddish brown lamellae, a long radicating stipe, and ellipsoid to elongate amyloid basidiospores. Based on both nrLSU and combined dataset (nrLSU, rpb2 and tef1-α), A. brunneofolia formed a monophyletic clade and clearly separated from other Amanita species. In addition, we describe two other Amanita species in A. sect. Roanokenses, namely, A. caojizong and A. sphaerobulbosa. This is the first report of these species for South Korea.
