Distinct Features

Ramakrishnania is described as a new genus of rust fungi with R. ixorae n.sp as the type species. Distinct features of this genus are the indeterminate growth of the basal cell and the formation of two-celled puccinioid teliospores on septate simple pedicels bilaterally on the elongating basal cell.

Claviplatysgen. n. and its type species C.henryisp. n. (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Plataspidae: Plataspinae) are described from Kerala, India. The new genus is related to the Indomalayan genera Heterocrates Amyot & Serville, 1843, Cratoplatys Montandon, 1894, and Cronion Bergroth, 1891, but differs from them and all other plataspid genera by the peculiarly modified antenna. The morphological characters and systematic relationships of the above genera are discussed.

Three New Species

AbstractThe Oriental genus Baptista Distant is redescribed and compared with other genera of Old World Microveliinae. The type-species, B. gesiroi Distant, hitherto only known from the type specimens (from Burma), is redescribed and recorded from Thailand. Three new speeies are described: B. femoralis sp. n. (Thailand, West Malaysia), B. digitata sp. n. (Thailand), and B. angulata sp. n. (southern India). These species all live in very cryptic and secluded habitats, like wet litter, small watery holes in rocks, or small cavities under turf along streams. The males of the new species exhibit a remarkable polymorphism in the structure of fore Iegs and pregenital abdomen. A closely related genus, Lathriovelia gen. n., is described with two species, L. capitata sp. n. and L. collaris sp. n., both from West Malaysia. This genus has a head structure which is quite unique within the subfamily.

Three New Species

A new genus and three new species of Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Enicocephalomorpha: Enicocephalidae: Enicocephalinae are described from Malaysia: Sabah, viz. Phaenicocleus n. gen. sabahensis n. sp. (type species), P. schwendingeri n. sp. and P. minor n. sp. (all species male-based). The new genus is macropterous and belongs to that group of Enicocephalinae characterized by presence of large, closed discal cell and absence of basal cell in forewing. The species are distinct in the character states of the median of pronotum, shape of unpaired sclerite of the pro-eusternum, and shape and length of a median keel of meta-eusternum – these are characters previously unemployed as diagnostic in the Enicocephalidae.

Marielliottia, a new genus of hyphomycetes, is described. Three species formerly treated in Drechslera are included: D. biseptata, the type, D. dematioidea, and D. triseptata. The species differ from Drechslera in having mostly three-septate, obovoid to ovoid conidia that germinate primarily from the basal cell, occasionally from the apical cell, and not from the central cells. These fungi are occasional parasites of cereals and grasses, are sometimes seed borne, and may infect nongrass plants. The type species is implicated in mycotoxicosis of sheep and produces zaragozoic acid A.Key words: mycotoxins, Helminthosporium, M. biseptata, M. dematioidea, M. triseptata.

The Subject

Prior phylogenetic studies of rust fungi have shown the Phakopsoraceae as polyphyletic. However, most of the ca. 13 genera currently placed in Phakopsoraceae s.l. have not been the subject of phylogenetic analyses. In this study we examine the placement of several species of Crossopsora (Phakopsoraceae) from newly generated nuc 28S rDNA (28S) sequence data. While the type species, C. ziziphi, cannot be excluded from the Phakopsoraceae s.s., several other species, including C. byrsonimae, are not congeneric with the type. Herein we describe the new genus Crossopsorella, based on C. byrsonimae as the type, to accommodate specimens of this species found in four different Byrsonima species.

Two New Species

Two new Oriental dictyopharid genera are described from Sri Lanka and southern India, respectively. Truncatomeria gen. nov. is established based on a single known species from Sri Lanka. Its type species, Dictyophora [sic] viridistigma Kirby, 1891 was first described in Dictyophara and then assigned to Centromeria Stål by Distant (1906). However, it bears many different characters from other Centromeria species and should be transferred to a new genus. The second new genus, Paradictyopharina gen. nov. is established for two new species, P. parallela sp. nov. and P. spina sp. nov., both from southern India. The new genus is externally similar to Dictyopharina Melichar, but can be distinguished from the latter by the differences of its mesonotum, fore femora, hind tibiae and aedeagus. Photographs of the adults of all species are presented. Descriptions of the two genera and their included species are provided together with structural illustrations.

A new genus of Gyponini, Sakakibarana gen. nov., is proposed and its type species S. amazonica sp. nov. is described and illustrated based on specimens from the Amazon Rainforest of Northern Brazil (states of Amazonas and Pará) and French Guiana. The new genus can be distinguished from other members of the Gyponini by the following morphological features: robust body, short crown, crown and face transition distinct and subfoliaceous, pronotum strongly declivous, male pygofer with caudal process, and aedeagus with dorsal apodemes with a pair of processes. A discussion comparing the new genus with the related genus Tenuacia DeLong, 1977 is provided.

A new genus and five new species of odiniids (Odiniidae: Traginopinae) are described from the Brazilian Amazon and Cerrado biomes: Inpauema mirador gen. nov. et sp. nov. (type species), I. catarinae sp. nov., I. gaimarii sp. nov., I. raimundoluizi sp. nov., and I. xavieri sp. nov. The genus is being characterized by a unique combination of diagnostic characters: body predominantly dark brown to black, with silvery-gray pruinose spots on inner margin of eyes, longitudinally along middle of lunule and face, on notopleuron and mesopleuron; postcranium concave from dorsal view; one pair of stout proclinate ocellar setae; postocellar setae absent; lunule shorter than frons; gena lacking upturned seta; antennae separated by a maximum distance of 2X the diameter of a single antennal socket and gonocoxal apodemes directed upward, forming an arch. A key to separate Helgreelia Gaimari, 2007 from Inpauema gen. nov. and for the new species is provided.

Bromodesmus catrionae n. gen., n. sp. (type species), B. militaris n. sp., B. riparius n. sp. and B. rufus n. sp. are described. The new genus is characterized by greatly reduced paranota and a gonopod telopodite expanded at the distal end into a posteriorly concave hood fringed with teeth; the hood partly protects a long, curved, acutely pointed solenomerite. Male leg setation in the type species of six Tasmanian dalodesmid genera is briefly discussed and illustrated with scanning electron micrographs. The sphaerotrichome shaft is sharply pointed in Atrophotergum; gently tapered in Dasystigma, Lissodesmus and Tasmanodesmus; expanded at the tip in Bromodesmus; and entirely absent in Gasterogramma. Tips of the setae forming the dense ventral brush on male podomeres are gently tapered in Dasystigma and Lissodesmus, truncated in Gasterogramma, expanded in Bromodesmus and forked in Tasmanodesmus.
