Anarsia balioneura Meyrick, 1921 and Polyhymno chionarcha Meyrick, 1913 are recorded for the first time in the Palaearctic region. Two new species are described: Metzneria freidbergi sp. nov., and Scrobipalpa aravensis sp. nov. Six new synonyms are established: Stygmatoptera Hartig, 1936 syn. nov. of Polyhymno Chambers, 1874; Eulamprotes Bradley, 1971 syn. nov. of Oxypteryx Rebel, 1911; Polyhymno abaiella Amsel, 1974 syn. nov. of Polyhymno chionarcha, Meyrick, 1913; Gelechia haifella Amsel, 1935 syn. nov. of Athrips rancidella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854); Sophronia catharurga Meyrick, 1923 and Sophronia parahumerella Amsel, 1935 syn. nov. of Pseudosophronia exustellus (Zeller, 1847).

New or additional host plants are recorded for Metzneria aspretella Lederer, 1869, M. agraphella (Ragonot, 1895), M. ehikeella Gozmány, 1954 and Scrobipalpa suaedivorella (Chrétien, 1915). Photographs of the type specimens of most taxa described from Israel and Palestine are presented. The following species are removed from the list of Gelechiidae of Israel: Nothris sulcella Staudinger, 1879, N. skyvai Karsholt & Šumpich, 2015, Anarsia spartiella Schrank, 1802, Megacraspedus cerussatellus Rebel, 1930, Oxypteryx atrella (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775), Isophrictis anthemidella (Wocke, 1871), Metzneria metzneriella (Stainton, 1851), Scrobipalpa otregata Povolný, 1972, Scrobipalpa nitentella (Fuchs, 1902), Scrobipalpa remota Povolný, 1972, Scrobipalpa salinella (Zeller, 1847) and Ephysteris diminutella (Zeller, 1847). Moreover, Stomopteryx remissella (Zeller, 1847) is recorded as new to the Altai Mountains of Russia, Anarsia balioneura Meyrick, 1921 is new to Cyprus and Libya, Polyhymno dumonti (Hartig, 1936) is new to Libya and Sudan, Scrobipalpa superstes is new to Greece, Stenolechia gemmella (Linnaeus, 1758) is new to Jordan and Polyhymno chionarcha is new to Saudi Arabia.

The neotropical weevil genus Embates Chevrolat is revised. New synonyms of Embates are Drepanambates Jekel, Batames Casey, Macrambates Casey and Cholinambates Casey. Information is provided about the morphology of the immature stages, life history, sexual dimorphism and morphological variability. A total of 69 species is recognized in Middle America, 38 of which are newly described here: E. aequiperabilis, E. aliquantulus, E. bicoctura, E. burgeri, E. callifer, E. chelys, E.clandestinus, E. consimilis, E. cordiger, E. crinipes, E. discissus, E. discordabilis, E. euchasma, E. euscheme, E. flavoplagiatus, E. galbinus, E. gilvopictus, E. gracilis, E. intermedius, E. kunicus, E. maculifer, E. marchionis, E. mendax, E. oculifer, E. paludicola, E. paucilimbatus, E. pauhans, E. peperomiae, E. politus, E. pseudobumbraticus, E. pullus, E. rutilus, E. sagittifolicus, E. scambus, E. subulirostris, E. terrabanicus, E. todillofasciatus and E. uniformis. Six new subspecies are described: E. polymorphus altrimsecus, E. polymorphus dotensis, E. polymorphus fortunensis, E. polymorphus tabulensis, E. polymorphus zeledonensis and E. leucopleura discolor. New combinations are E. belti (Champion), E. leucopleura (Champion) and E. flavolimbatus (Voss) [all from Drepanambates]. New synonyms are E. belti [= E. triangularis (Champion)], E. fasciolatus (Chevrolat) [= E. sexpunctatus (Champion)] and E. solani (Champion) [= E. divisus (Casey)]. Embates rugosus (Hustache) is distinguished from E. solani and resurrected as a valid species. New records for Middle America are E. flavolimbatus (Voss), E. justini (Chevrolat) and E. rugosus. Descriptions, line drawings of habitus and male genitalia, geographic distributions, plant associations and keys for identification are provided.

This checklist provides in addition to a list of mosses and hepatics, a key to the species. We report 17 moss species of which 9 are new to Mona Island and 3 are new records for Puerto Rico (Fissidens minutus, Plaubelia sprengelii and Brymela callicostelloides). This report represents a 35% increase to the moss flora of Mona Island. Thirteen hepatics are reported of which 8 are new records, representing an increase of 31%. Two new synonyms (Bryum microdecurrens = Bryum coronatum, Riccia brittonii = Riccia elliottii) are included. No hornworts are known for the island.

Chandragiri Mountain forest in Kathmandu borders Makwanpur district to the west was least known for bryophytes till this study was conducted. This mountain forest with varying elevation ranges from 1365 to 2300 m offered different habitat types for diverse bryofloral species which included 58 species of 39 genera categorized under 27 families and nine orders. Of the recorded species 18 species were rare and five new records to country’s list. Sauteria spongiosa (Kashyap) S. Hatt., a rare moss species was not recorded in this study though was reported for the fi rst time at 2250 m of this mountain in 1982. The habitat of this moss has completely been destroyed now due to expansion of the road in this part.J. Nat. Hist. Mus. Vol. 28, 2014: 81-92
