The genus Lemanea and a species belonging to this genus, Lemanea fucina Bory 1808, are reported for the first time in the Republic of Montenegro (southeast Europe, in the river Tara, at one locality - ?Splaviste? (N-43? 07? 721?, E 019? 18 ?609?). This is a new finding, and also the southernmost point of occurrence of this species in Europe. The species is characteristic mostly for rivers of the countries of northern and western Europe. The variable morphological characteristics of this species are described and illustrated in this work.

We present new data on the poorly known rodent Prionomys batesi Dollman, 1910. Recently, five specimens of this species were collected in Odzala National Park, which represent the first record of this species in Republic of Congo. These new captures, combined with the preparation of 15 specimens from Central African Republic allowed us to complete the morphological description of the species as well as, for the first time, to document intraspecific variability. This species is actually known from three countries (Cameroon, Central African Republic and Republic of Congo) and four localities (Bitye, Obala, La Maboké and Odzala). It seems to be restricted to areas of forest-savannah mosaic where the forest is actually colonising the savannah.

Collections of Gymnopus sect. Impudicae from the Republic of Korea are evaluated. Three recorded species (G. densilamellatus, G. similis, and G. variicolor) are described as new for the science: Gymnopus densilamellatus is macroscopically characterized as having a brown to reddish brown, sometimes pale ochraceous and later whitish pileus and crowded lamellae. Gymnopus similis has an ochraceous-grey, brownish orange or brownish red pileus, and moderately distant, whitish, later dirty yellowish, greyish, or brownish orange or light brown lamellae. Gymnopus variicolor is characterized by a reddish brown, brownish red or violet brown pileus drying-up to light brown or brown, greyish brown or greyish red, later pale brownish orange lamellae, and greyish brown or greyish red pileus, grey-brown, light to reddish brown in upper part. Gymnopus dysodes is recorded for the first time in Korea. The morphological characteristics of the species are provided with a key for their identification. The taxonomic positions of all taxa are confirmed by the DNA sequences of the internal transcribed spacer region and the large subunit of ribosomal rRNA gene.

A trial involving the mass propagation of Argania spinosa cuttings was established following two protocols: in mini-bouturathèques without mist and in a greenhouse under mist. Symptoms of petiole necrosis, foliar yellowing and abundant black acervuli were observed under both protocols. These symptoms were responsible for a 90% mortality rate in the mini-bouturathèques while under the mist treatment premature fatal necrosis of the apical buds resulted in 100% mortality. The disease’s causal agent, Pestalotiopsis clavispora, was identified on the basis of its morphological characteristics and by molecular analysis. Alternating weekly treatments of systemic and contact fungicides resulted in a 41% success rate in controlling this pathogen, described for the first time on argan cuttings.

The specimen was collected with a Malaise Dossel trap and deposited at the Entomological Collection of the Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (Brazil). A diagnosis and illustration of this species are presented  demonstrating morphological variation of the type material. A distribution map is also provided. Gonatopus mariae is a rare species and its distribution is probably restricted to the southeastern region of Brazil.

Vaucheria aversa (Xanthophyta) was recorded for the first time in Ukraine in Sula River, Hydrological Reserve «Artopolot», Poltava Region. It was found in benthos in spring (May 2020) in silty-sandy soil in shallow water. The material was collected and processed according to a common methodology. Sterile samples before the appearance of the gametengians were kept in natural water in petri dishes in well-lit places. This method of «coarse culture», in most cases, allowed to get gametangia within two weeks. The species identification was done with fertile filaments only. 4% formaldehyde solution was used for material fixation. Taxonomic identification of samples was done using a comparative and morphological methods, which includes analysis of morphological variability and verification of the consistency of the studied material with the diagnosis. Thalli of V. aversa are direct, branched, bisexual, 80–90 μm wide. Antheridia are cylindrical, tubular shape, pressed to the filament or slightly raised above it, 119–130 × 41–43 μm. Oogonia erect, sessile, ovoid to subspherical, sometimes placed in pairs, with a curved beak at the front, 190–230 × 140–163 μm. According to morphological characteristics this species is similar to another one from section Tubligerae Walz – V. fontinalis (Linnaeus) T.A. Christensen. Their distinctive and common features are as follows. Filaments of V. fontinalis are narrower (up to 75 μm) than V. aversa (up to 131 μm). Both species are characterized by oogonia grouped together in a row. Antheridia present in quantity 1 or 2 on both sides of oogonia. But the species are very different in size and shape of oogonia: in V. aversa they are sessile, located one at a time or less often two, extended near the base, sharply narrowed at the apex. The beak is directed straight or obliquely up, bent to the side of the oogonia body. In V. fontinalis oogonia are placed in one row, most often in the amount of 1-6, the beak tapers gradually. Anteridia are cylindrical, on short pedicel. V. aversa grew as a part of polyspecies complex of green algae together with representatives of such genera as Cladophora Kützing, Spirogyra Link and Mougeotia C. Agardh. V. aversa is widely distributed in continental water bodies of Europe, Asia and North America, Australia and New Zealand, but is firstly recorded in Ukraine.

Hermetia illucens (Linnaeus, 1758)- Black soldier fly is a beneficial insect which has been used in simple systems, to treat organic waste efficiently and rapidly, and to produce animal feed ingredient and fertilizer as end products. These flies are naturally found in warmer parts of the globe. The incidence of Black soldier fly was recorded for the first time in Nepal in between April and May 2020 in the sub urban area of Chitwan District, Nepal. Identification of the insect was done in the Laboratory of Department of Entomology, Faculty of Agriculture, Agriculture and Forestry University, Nepal. Both adult and larval forms of the insect were identified based on the study of morphological characteristics of captured specimens using simple microscope and stereomicroscope. The record of this insect in Nepal opens up a new dimension for its use in bio-systems to treat organic waste and produce more sustainable ingredient for animal feeding, and rich fertilizer to be used in agriculture.

First records of Myxomycetes from the Republic of Tuva, Russia, are presented. We identified 24 species of myxomycetes from 12 genera, 7 families and 4 orders in the State Natural Customer “Sut-Khol”. For the Republic of Tuva, 14 species of myxomycetes have been identified for the first time. Arcyria globosa, first identified on the bark of a live Сaragana in the Asian part of Russia using the “moist chamber”. We have also identified a rare species of Echinostelium fragile on the bark of a live Pinus sylvestris.
