A list of seventeen rare and little known species of Crambidae and Pyralidae from Ukraine is given. Hyperlais claralis (Caradja, 1916) stat. rev., comb. nov. is recorded for the first time for Europe. Five species are found in Ukraine for the first time: H. claralis, Titanio ledereri (Staudinger, 1870), Lambaesia pistrinariella (Ragonot, 1887), Gymnancyla gilvella (Ragonot, 1887) and Sciota lucipetella (Jalava, 1978). Two neglected European species—Lambaesia pistrinariella and Ancylosis monella (Roesler, 1973), are confirmed to occur in Europe. The lectotype of L. pistrinariella is designated and the species is recorded for the first time from Russia. The hitherto unknown females of H. claralis and L. pistrinariella are described. The differences between H. claralis and other related Hyperlais-species are briefly discussed. The adults and the genitalia of H. claralis, H. dulcinalis (Treitschke, 1835), Udea institalis (Hübner, 1819), A. monella, L. pistrinariella, Bradyrrhoa confiniella (Zeller, 1848), B. imperialella (Ragonot, 1887) and G. gilvella are illustrated. The biology of Loxostege clathralis (Hübner, 1813), Epischidia fulvostrigella (Eversmann, 1844), B. imperialella and Pempeliella bulgarica Slamka & Plant, 2016 is described based on observation by the third author in Crimea. Salicornia perenanns Willd. is recorded as a new host plant for G. gilvella and Halocnemum strobilaceum (Pall.) M. Bieb.—as a new host plant for E. fulvostrigella. Epischidia caesariella (Hampson in Ragonot & Hampson, 1901) and Pempeliella sororiella (Zeller, 1839) are removed from the list of Pyralidae of Ukraine due to misidentification.

Twenty three new state records of Cerambycidae are provided for Espírito Santo State, Brazil. Forgotten geographical records for Desmiphora (Desmiphora) cirrosa Erichson, 1847, and Cipriscola fasciata (Thomson, 1860) are mentioned. Notes on Metacriodion capixaba Fragoso, 1970, Potiaete maculata Martins & Galileo, 1999, and Eriphus mexicanus Audinet-Serville, 1834 are presented. The female of Trestonia grisea Martins & Galileo, 1990 is described for the first time. Stenoeme annularis Martins, 1980 is redescribed and a key to species of Stenoeme is provided. Four new species are described from the Brazilian state of Espírito Santo: Microibidion fiuzai, Iquiracetima venturai, Adesmus culiki, and Xenofrea simplicioi.

An annotated list of new records of 45 weevil species is provided. Hadroplontus litura, Larinus iaceae, Magdalis exarata, Pissodes validirostris, Stereocorynes truncorum, Platystomos albinus, Nanophyes globiformis, Ceutorhynchus dubius, and Dorytomus suratus are registered in Ukrainian Polesia for the first time. 34 species are recorded in the west part of Volynian Polesia (= Volyn Region) for the first time. Total known richness of weevils in Volyn Region is increased by 9%. Currently, the list of Curculionoideae inhabiting Volyn Region includes 386 species and subspecies. Additional data on 11 species rare in Ukraine are given. The west range limit of Asproparthenis foveocollis is extended to Volyn Polesia. Discovery of Asproparthenis vexata in Volyn Polesia confirms coexistence of specific insect assemblages associated with endemic psammophilous flora. An alien Lygniodes bischoffi entered into Ukrainian Polesia presumably from Poland. The hornbeam, Carpinus betulus was detected as a new host plant of Cossonus cylindricus for the first time.

Miconia is the largest genus of Melastomataceae in Brazil with more than 280 species, of which 120 are found in the Atlantic Rainforest. We present here a taxonomic treatment for the species of Miconia that occur in Espírito Santo, with morphological descriptions, geographic distribution, comments, photos and an identification key. We found 55 species, from which six were recently described (five endemic, M. capixaba, M. kollmannii, M. michelangeliana, M. ruschiana and M. valentinensis, and one with wider distribution, M. atlantica) and six are new records for the state (Miconia molesta, M. petroniana, M. staminea, M. stenostachya, M. valtheri and M. willdenowii). One species is presented here as a new species that will be described soon by other authors.

Seven new species of Trizogeniates Ohaus, 1917 (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Rutelinae: Geniatini) from Brazil are described: Trizogeniates beckeri new species, T. curvatus new species, T. eliskae new species, T. hallensorum new species, T. spatulatus new species, T. vazdemelloi new species, and T. zuzanae new species. The male of T. eris Villatoro, 2002 is described for the first time. The diagnostic features of the seven new species and the male of T. eris are presented and compared with their congeners. Illustrations of specimens, mouthparts, and male genitalia of the new species and T. eris are also provided. Additionally, an identification key and an illustrated catalogue with the geographic distribution of the Brazilian species of Trizogeniates are presented. New Brazilian state records for 12 species are depicted: T. cribricollis (Lucas, 1859) from Pará, Mato Grosso do Sul, and Paraná; T. dispar (Burmeister, 1844) from Espírito Santo; T. eris from Rio de Janeiro; T. goyanus Ohaus, 1917 from Mato Grosso do Sul; T. laevis (Camerano, 1878) and T. montanus Ohaus, 1917 from Espírito Santo and Paraná; T. temporalis Ohaus, 1917 from Goiás; T. terricolus Ohaus, 1917 and T. vittatus (Lucas, 1859) from Paraná; and T. traubi Martínez, 1965 from Pará, Minas Gerais, and São Paulo. Finally, distributional maps for the Brazilian species are included.

AbstractAraucaria trees as host plants of the longhorned beetle Huequenia livida (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in Argentina are reviewed. Araucaria araucana is its natural host plant in SW Argentina, but the larvae also developed in dead branches of A. angustifolia and A. bidwillii (new host plant records), when both plants were kept in the same rearing cage with the natural host plant. Pinus contorta var. murrayana, also mentioned from Argentina, may be a recently adopted secondary host. A winter and a summer generation of H. livida was documented for the first time. Huequenia livida exceeds the actual natural distribution of A. araucana following the distribution of cultivated A. araucana and Pinus trees.
