Arenaeocoris gen. nov., and a new species, A. enervatus sp. nov., is described from southeastern United States. Diagnosticcharacters to distinguish the new genus from related taxa in the United States, illustrations of the species, and a key to the genera for the United States incorporating the new genus, are provided.

Between mid-May and early June of 1839, members of the United States Exploring Expedition collected diverse anurans in the environs of Valparaíso, Chile, later described by Girard in 1853. Of this set of species, Metaeus timidus, described there as a new genus and species, attracts attention because is a name that practically disappeared from the herpetological literature. Its identification, along with that of the other Chilean taxa collected by the USEE (Cystignathus nebulosus Girard, 1853, Pleurodema bibroni Tschudi, 1838, Pleurodema elegans Bell, 1843, Bufo lugubrosus Girard, 1853, Bufo thaul Lesson, 1826 and Metaeus timidus Girard, 1853) are the main objectives of this contribution.

AbstractThe order Intejocerida is an enigmatic, short-lived cephalopod taxon known previously only from Early–Middle Ordovician beds of Siberia and the United States. Here we report a new genus, Cabaneroceras, and a new species, C. aznari, from Middle Ordovician strata of central Spain. This finding widens the paleogeographic range of the order toward high-paleolatitudinal areas of peri-Gondwana. A curved conch, characteristic for the new genus, was previously unknown from members of the Intejocerida.UUID: http://zoobank.org/21f0a09c-5265-4d29-824b-6b105d36b791

Twenty-three species of trilobites are recognized in the lower Mississippian Caballero and Lake Valley Formations of southern New Mexico. Species exhibit a segregation into shelf and off-shelf faunas, and can be subdivided into three distinct stratigraphic faunas. Species found in the Caballero Formation are similar to those found in the Chouteau Formation of Missouri. A second fauna, comprising species found in the Alamogordo, Nunn, and Tierra Blanca Members of the Lake Valley Formation, is correlated with the Fern Glen and Burlington Formations of Missouri. The third fauna found in the Arcente and Dona Ana Members of the Lake Valley Formation is correlated with the Warsaw and Salem Formations of the United States midcontinent region.Named species from the Kinderhookian Caballero Formation include: Dixiphopyge armata (Vogdes, 1891), Comptonaspis swallowi (Shumard, 1855), Brachymetopus indianwellsensis new species, Ameropiltonia perplexa new species, Griffithidella caballeroensis new species, and Kollarcephalus granatai new genus and new species. Named species from the Lake Valley Formation include: Pudoproetus fernglenensis (Weller, 1909), Breviphillipsia semiteretis Hessler, 1963, Griffithidella doris (Hall 1860), Phillibole planucauda (Brezinski, 1998), Piltonia carlakertisae new species, Australosutura llanoensis Brezinski, 1998, Thigriffides triangulatus new species, Thigriffides? alamogordoensis new species, Namuropyge newmexicoensis new species, Nunnaspis stitti new genus and new species, Hesslerides arcentensis new genus and new species, as well as an unnamed species of Proetides Hessler, 1962, Namuropyge Brezinski, 1988, and Thigriffides Hessler, 1965.

AbstractFrom the Santiago Ixtaltepec area, in Oaxaca State, southern Mexico, 11 species of productoid brachiopods, including a new genus and five new species, are described.Semicostellasp.,Antiquatoniasp.,Keokukia? sp.,Inflatia inflata,Reticulatiacf.R.huecoensis,Buxtonia websteri,Weberproductus donajiaen. gen. n. sp.,Dictyoclostus transversumn. sp.,Inflatia coodzavuiin. sp.,Buxtonia inexpletucostan. sp., andFlexaria magnan. sp. were collected from eight stratigraphic levels of the Ixtaltepec Formation. The presence ofSemicostellasp.,Keokukia? sp. andInflatia inflatain the basal strata, Units 1 to 3, of the formation indicate a Viséan-Serpukhovian (Late Mississippian) age.Reticulatiacf.R.huecoensisandBuxtonia websteri, found in Units 6 to 8, confirm the Pennsylvanian age for upper strata of the Ixtaltepec Formation.InflatiaandFlexariaare present in the uppermost beds of the formation so it is possible to extend their upper stratigraphic range to the Middle Pennsylvanian. All these taxa also occur in the United States Midcontinent, suggesting that during the Carboniferous the epicontinental sea extended at least to central Mexico.

A new genus and species of arionid slug, Kootenaia burkei n. gen. et n. sp., are formally described from northern Idaho, United States. This taxonomic decision is based on comparative anatomical and molecular data involving representatives of a total of ten species and three additional genera (Hemphillia, Prophysaon, and Zacoleus) of the family Arionidae. The anatomical analyses show that the new genus is characterized by a major autapomorphy, the complete absence of an epiphallus, which is found in all other arionids. The molecular analyses using two mitochondrial genes and the anatomical data produce congruent topologies. Overall, there is a high degree of concordance between the anatomical and molecular datasets.

Heleiosa barbatula gen. et sp.nov., Massariosphaeria erucacea sp.nov., and Scirrhia annulata sp.nov. are described from Juncus roemerianus in salt marshes of the United States east coast. Whereas H. barbatula is very rare, the other two species do not show a seasonality because they occurred in almost every one of the monthly collections made throughout 2 years. The new genus Heleiosa is of unknown affinity but may belong to Dothideales s.l. Keywords: ascomycetes, Heleiosa, Juncus, Massariosphaeria, salt marsh, Scirrhia.
