A New Species

A new species of Halosarpheia, H. heteroguttulata, is described from wood submerged in streams and lakes in Australia, Brunei, Hong Kong, Mauritius, the Philippines, and South Africa. It differs from other species in the genus in ascospore dimensions, and consistently large guttule(s) in the apical cell, but many smaller guttules in the basal cell. The species is illustrated with light and scanning and transmission electron micrographs and compared with other Halosarpheia species.Key words: appendage ontogeny, freshwater Ascomycete, Halosarpheia, taxonomy, ascospore ultrastructure.

The adult male, female, immature stages, and egg of a new species of whitefly, Lipaleyrodes emiliae, are described from Taiwan and Hong Kong. The species has been found commonly on Emilia sonchifolia (Asteraceae). Scanning electron micrographs, photographs and drawings are included with descriptions of immature stages and adults. The immatures and adults of L. emiliae are compared with those of Bemisia tabaci.

A New Species

The genus Dendrothripoides was originally described by Bagnall (1923) from India and is currently represented by five species (ThripsWiki 2020). Dendrothripoides innoxius (Karny) is widely distributed in the Oriental and Pacific regions; D. microchaetus Okajima is from the Philippines and Indonesian archipelago; D. nakaharai Reyes known only from the Philippines, D. poni Kudo from Thailand, and D. venustus Faure from Rhodesia [Zimbabwe] and South Africa (Faure 1941; Kudo 1977; Bournier 2000). Little is known about the biology of these species because collections often have samples with few specimens. D. innoxius is considered a minor pest on Ipomoea crops (Watson & Mound 2020) but adults have been taken on the leaves of plants in numerous families (Asteraceae, Convolvulaceae, Dioscoreaceae, Musaceae, Poaceae). Dendrothripoides was classified within the Panchaetothripinae by Priesner (1957) for having a reticulate body surface. However, Ananthakrishnan (1963) indicated that the similarities are superficial, and that this genus should be classified in the Aptinothripina of the Thripinae because the pronotum lacks long setae. The genus is now not included in the Anaphothrips genus-group (Masumoto & Okajima 2017), but the systematic position is unclear with a recent morphological phylogenetic analysis indicating a position near the Panchaetothripinae that may be due to superficial resemblance (Zhang et al. 2019).

Long Cylinder

A new species of Chrysochromulina Lackey with exceptionally long cylinder-scales distributed evenly over the cell is described and illustrated with electron micrographs of shadowcast whole mounts of wild material from the Galapagos Islands, South Africa and the English Channel. In all cells, the cylinder-scales are underlain and outnumbered by highly characteristic plate-scales, each with a conspicuous infra-marginal ridge on the distal face. Some consistent dimensional and other differences between periplasts from Africa and the Galapagos Islands are noted, with the British equivalents approximating more closely to the former though with minor differences from both. The observations are interpreted in a preliminary way, but further comment including comparisons with other taxa will follow.

General Appearance

I have received from South Africa specimens of blood taken from cattle which contain a new species of Trypanosoma. This new species can be at once distinguished from the Trypanosomas of Surra, Tse-tse Fly Disease, or Rat by its larger size, it being almost twice as large as any of the others. In general appearance it conforms closely to the others in possessing an oval protoplasmic body, a longitudinal fin-like membrane, and a single flagellum.

A New Species

A species of Xyloryctid moth bred from larvae feeding on the leaves of tea (Camellia sinensis) in Hong Kong is described as new and is named Neospastis sinensis sp.n. The species is differentiated from the three other known representatives of the genus, and also from Synchalara rhombota (Meyr.), which is a pest of tea in India, and S. rhizograpta Meyr., which was originally described from China. Illustrations of both sexes of the adult and genitalia and of N. sinensis are given.

A New Species

Junewangia aquatica sp. nov., a new Acrodictys-like fungus was collected on submerged wood from freshwater habitats in Yunnan Province, China. J. aquatica is characterized by its flared conidiophores with percurrent proliferations, monoblastic, terminal or intercalary, cylindrical conidiogenous cells, and subglobose to broadly ellipsoidal conidia with transverse and oblique septa. A phylogenetic tree of Acrodictys-like species was inferred from multi-locus (SSU, ITS and LSU) sequences. A key to the species of Junewangia is provided.
