New Synonymy

The basidiocarps of nine species are described and the cultural characters are presented for six species. All have pale yellow spores and hyphae with clamp connections and primarily occur on coniferous wood where they are associated with a brown rot. Leucogyrophana arizonica and L. romellii are proposed as new species. Merulius pulverulenta Fr. is transferred to Leucogyrophana. New synonymy is proposed following the study of type specimens and several names previously regarded as synonyms are shown to apply to distinct species.

A New Species

A study of soil mites in the Brazilian Pantanal, southwestern Brazil, has shown the frequent occurrence of the genus Protogamasellus, especially in cultivated land. Three species were found in this study, Protogamasellus mica (Athias-Henriot), Protogamasellus sigillophorus Mineiro, Lindquist & Moraes, and a new species, Protogamasellus pantanal n. sp., which is here described. A taxonomic key for the identification of species of the genus was prepared, based on the examination of the type specimens of the new species here described, of specimens of other species found in Brazil in this and previous studies, and on the information found in the literature for other species.

First Time

Twenty-one species are treated in detail. New specific combinations are proposed as Ceraceomerulius albostramineus (Torrend) and its variety flavido-albus (Corner); as Ceraceomyces serpens (Ft.); as Gloeoporus chlorinus (Pat.) and G. subambiguus (P. Henn.); as Leucogyrophana luridochracea (Corner), L. sororia (Burt) and L. montana (Burt); as Meruliopsis ambiguus (Berk.), M. bellus (Berk. & Curtis), M. corium (Fr.), M. hirtellus (Burt), and M. miniatus (Wakef.); and as Radulomyces fuscus (Lloyd). Cultural characters are described in detail for the first time for M. ambiguus, M. hirtellus, Merulius incarnatus Schw., C. borealis (Rom.), C. serpens, and Ceraceomerulius albostramineus. Extensive new synonymy is proposed, which is based on the study of nearly 150 type specimens, and a nomenclator is included which contains over 350 valid combinations in Merulius.

A New Species

We examined the genera Tibiodrepanus Krikken, 2009 (four Oriental and one Palaearctic species) and Sulcodrepanus Krikken, 2009 (one Afrotropical species), using type specimens and non-type specimens, in order to assess the systematic consistency of the two taxa. Within this framework, we also considered the genera Afrodrepanus Krikken, 2009 (two species) and Drepanocerus Kirby, 1828 (two species) employing sets of traits from external morphology, the genitalia of both sexes and the epipharynx. The genus Cyptochirus Lesne, 1900 was chosen as an outgroup. A new species—Tibiodrepanus tagliaferrii sp. nov.—was described based on four females from Cameroon and Namibia. The phylogenetic analyses confirmed that the Tibiodrepanus and Sulcodrepanus species were closely related, yet it did not support the hypothesis of a generic or subgeneric separation of the two taxa. Hence, we establish Sulcodrepanus as a junior synonym of Tibiodrepanus, new synonymy. The genus Tibiodrepanus shows a disjunct Afrotropical-Oriental (common to many other Drepanocerina genera) and Southeastern Palaearctic (Hindu Kush, Afghanistan) distribution pattern.

Specific Identity

A critical review is presented of the species of Dinobothrium and their probable synonyms. D. septaria v. Beneden and D. planum Linton are accepted as valid species. D. keilini Sproston and D. plicitum Linton are regarded as of doubtful status, the former being probably a synonym of D. septaria, while D. plicitum may be a synonym of D. planum. The type-specimens of D. keilini and of D. paciferum Sproston have been re-examined. A new interpretation is offered of the structure of the scolex of D. paciferum, and some other details of its anatomy are redescribed. A small species from Cetorhinus maximus is described, which is very similar to, and may prove to be identical with, Dinobothrium paciferum. As it apparently differs in having the neck and parts of the bothria covered with spines, it is treated as a distinct species and named D. spinosum. The question of the specific identity of the known larval forms of Dinobothrium is briefly discussed.

A New Species

The species belonging to the weevil genus Rhinocyllus are studied. A new species, Rhinocyllus alpinus sp. nov. living on the inflorescences of Cirsium alsophilum (Pollini) Soldano (Asteraceae), is described from the central Italian Alps. A new subgenus, Rhinolarinus subgen. nov., is created for this new species. The following new synonymy is proposed: Curculio inquilinus Gyllenhal, 1827 syn. nov. of Rhinocyllus conicus (Froelich, 1792). Lectotypes for Curculio inquilinus Gyllenhal, 1827, Rhinocyllus olivieri Gyllenhal, 1835 and Rhinocyllus oblongus Capiomont, 1873 are designated. Due to lack of type specimens and information subsequently to its description, Rhinocyllus turkestanicus Desbrochers des Loges, 1900 is considered as species incertae sedis. Keys to the subgenera and to the species of Rhinocyllus s. str. are provided and taxonomical differences are illustrated.Key words: Rhinocyllus, Rhinolarinus, new subgenus, new species, Cirsium, Italy

Photographs of the dorsal habitus and figures of the male genitalia are given. A key to the world species is provided. All type specimens are deposited in the Institute of Entomology, Nankai University, Tianjin, China.

The Chinese species of Cleopomiarus Pierce, 1919 (Curculionidae, Curculioninae, Mecinini) are revised. Six taxa are reported: two already know from China (C. distinctus (Boheman, 1845), C. vestitus (Roelofs, 1875)), two cited for the first time from this country (C. flavoscutellatus (Morimoto, 1959), C. graminis (Gyllenhal, 1813)), and two new to science (C. danfengensis Jiang & Caldara n. sp., C. nuerhachii Jiang & Caldara n. sp.). The following new synonymy is proposed: C. distinctus (Boheman, 1845) = Miarus longirostris mandschuricus Voss, 1952 n. syn. Diagnosis, description or redescription, comparative notes and distribution are reported for each species. Dorsal and lateral habitus, as well as details of rostra and genitalia are illustrated. Finally, a key to the species is provided. Type specimens are deposited in the National Zoological Museum of China in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, China.

A new species of Phalaenopsis, P. pingxiangensis, from Guangxi, China, is described and illustrated. Detailed morphological comparison between the newly discovered orchid and other members of Phalaenopsis s.l. indicate that P. pingxiangensis is similar to P. marriottiana. The new species differs from the latter in its small stature, short inflorescence with two flowers, smaller and pink flower with pale yellow sepals abaxially, orbicular petals, purple-red, flabellate lip and terete column without wings. The molecular analyses of Phalaenopsis indicate that P. pingxiangensis is a distinct species nested in P. subgenus Hygrochilus. In addition, Hygrochilus tsii is transferred to Phalaenopsis.
