El género Coelocephalapion Wagner, 1914 está asociado principalmente a Leguminosae y Asteraceae. El objetivo del trabajo fue registrar por primera vez la presencia del género Coelocephalapion en botones florales de Platymiscium diadelphum S.F. Blake (Leguminosae) en el estado Lara, Venezuela. Ésta información representa el primer reporte de Coelocephalapion para la región centro occidental del país, contribuyendo a aumentar los datos de distribución geográfica para Sudamérica.

Dichromothrips corbetti (Priesner, 1936) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae): a new quarantine pest in orchids in Brazil Dichromothrips corbetti (Priesner, 1936), listed as quarantine pest by the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture, is recorded for the first time in Brazil. Specimens were first detected in the state of Bahia causing chlorosis and deformation on leaves, flowers and flower buds of Vanda and Mokara and Aranda orchids. This thrips species is native to Southeast Asia, but widely reported in countries of Europe and Oceania. This is the first record of D. corbetti in South America.

Leptodactylus mystaceus, a widespread species over South America, is diagnosed based on specimens from the State of São Paulo, its southernmost geographic distribution limit. Here we present the first record of this species for Southeastern Brazil, extending its distribution for approximately 1,300 km to the southeast. We also include a description of its advertisement call, natural history data, photograph in life and morphological illustrations that make easier the identification of the species.

Desmoncus leptoclonos Drude is recorded for the first time for the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Based on this new record, the geographical distribution of Desmoncus Mart. for Brazil is expanded. An identification key to climbing species of Brazilian Desmoncus, a description, a map of geographic distribution, photographs, and comments concerning Desmoncus leptoclonos are provided.

Abstract This study aimed to report the first record of the occurrence of the parasite Livoneca guianensis in Leporinus fasciatus in Brazil. In September 2019, during surveys of the parasites in 12 specimens of L. fasciatus from the lower Jari River basin, in Amapá State, Brazil, one specimen of L. guianensis was found in the tongue of one host. The prevalence of L. guianensis was 8.3%, and it was observed that this parasite has a geographic distribution restricted to South America, parasitizing fish species from Guyana and Brazil. This study contributed to the first report on the occurrence of L. guianensis for L. fasciatus in Brazil. In addition, increased the knowledge on the geographic distribution of this parasite with morphometric data, which are scarce for this Cymothoidae.

In the present paper we report for the first time the presence of Gundlachia radiata (Guilding, 1828), in northwestern region (Jujuy province), Argentina. Adult and juveniles specimens of this freshwater limpet were collected in two temporary water bodies. This record represents the first report of this species in Argentina but also is the southernmost point of occurrence of G. radiata in South America. As a result, the distributional range of this species is increased and the species richness of Ancylidae in Argentina is incremented to a total of seven species classified in four genera.

Based on field surveys, we report new distribution data of Fulvous Whistling-duck, Dendrocygna bicolor (Vieillot, 1816), from the state of Rondônia, southwestern Amazon, Brazil. This is the first record of D. bicolor from Rondônia and extend the geographic distribution of this species by 946 km from São Fabiano, Mato Grosso state, Brazil, and 688 km from Trinidad, Bolivia.

A total of 81 Tyraniidae birds were examined, 80 Pitangus sulphuratus (Linnaeus, 1766) (Great kiscadee), and one Machetornis rixosa (Vieilot, 1819) (Cattle tyrant), for collection of nasal mites, which were identified as Ptilonyssus spinosus (Brooks & Strandtmann, 1960) and Sternostoma longisetosae (Hyland, 1961) (Rhinonyssidae). This finding characterises the first report of P. spinosus and S. longisetosae in P. sulphuratus, and the first record of P. spinosus in M. rixosa, and expands the geographic distribution of these species. It is the first occurrence of S. longisetosae in the Neotropics, and the first citation of P. spinosus in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

: In South America, Pterinotrematoides mexicanum Caballero & Bravo-Hollis, 1955 has been reported in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and in Argentina parasitizing Micropogonias furnieri (Des­marest, 1823). In this paper, the first record of P. mexicanum in the same host from the coastal zone of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil is presented, filling a gap of occurrence of P. mexicanum. The morphology of P. mexicanum is re­described and compared with that of Neopterinotrematoides avaginata Suriano, 1975.
