Description of two new species of Collaria Provancher from Madagascar (Hemiptera, Miridae, Mirinae, Stenodemini). Collaria elsae n. sp. and C. sabinae n. sp. are described from Madagascar. Habitus and genitalia are illustrated in both sexes for C. sabinae n. sp., and only for the female, only sex known, for C. elsae n. sp. These two species, black in color, are separated from African species with a black habitus, by a set of external characters and by the genitalia. Collaria bourbonica Matocq, 2019, described and known only from Reunion, is reported from Madagascar and Grande Comores. A key to the Afro-tropical species of Collaria is given.

Sclerothyone Thandar, 1989, currently restricted to two South African species, is here expanded to include two new species from off coast of Brazil. These new species expand the distribution of the genus to the southwestern Atlantic Ocean. Sclerothyone reichi sp. nov. is characterized by having body wall with multilocular two pillared tables with multiperforate disc and short spire, ending in a narrow crown of teeth; tentacles with rods and introvert with two pillared tables and rosettes; tube feet with only end plates. Sclerothyone oloughlini sp. nov. is distinctive in having a body wall with multilocular, two pillared tables; handles present and multilocular two-pillared tables; circular disc without handle; and plates (near the anus). The new species resemble each other in the tentacles with rods. However, Sclerothyone oloughlini sp. nov. stands apart from S. reichi sp. nov. in the introvert with rosettes; tube feet with two pillared supporting tables, arched plates and end plates. The possible assignment of Cucumaria nozawai Mitsukuri, 1912 and Thyone adinopoda Pawson & Miller, 1981 to Sclerothyone, and the position of Thyone neofusus Deichmann, 1941 in Temparena Thandar, 1989, are briefly discussed. A key to all genera and species of Sclerodactylinae is provided.

From material collected by R. Le Berre in 1972 and by J. J. Petersen and B. Mondet in 1975, two new species of Mermithidae are described from blackfly larvae, including Simulium damnosum s.l., for the first time in West Africa. These species, Gastromermis philipponi n.sp. and Gastromermis leberrei n.sp. possess a rudimentary excretory gland and the preparasitic larvae of the former contain a characteristic caudal appendage which is lost during penetration into the simuliid larvae. Therefore, these two species are the only ones of Gastromermis known to have six longitudinal cords.

Two new species of oribatid mites of the genus Neoribates (Oribatida, Parakalummidae) are described based on adult specimens from leaf litter in the Montagne d'Ambre National Park of North Madagascar. Neoribates africanus sp. nov. and N. madagascarensis sp. nov. clearly differs from all species of the genus by the absence of interlamellar seta (including alveolus). An identification key and data on distribution and ecology of known African species of Parakalummidae are presented.

Two new species of the genus Paragus Latreille, 1804 are described from the Republic of South Africa: Paragus longipilus Tot, Vujić et Radenković sp. nov. and Paragus megacercus Tot, Vujić et Radenković sp. nov. These new species belong to the subgenus Pandasyopthalmus Stuckenberg, 1954a. Paragus longipilus sp. nov. is a member of the P. jozanus group, whereas Paragus megacercus sp. nov. belongs to the P. tibialis group. The taxonomic status of Paragus chalybeatus Hull, 1964 is revised and proposed as synonym of Paragus punctatus Hull, 1949. Additionally, an identification key to males of the South African species of Paragus is provided. Results of the present study confirm a significant level of endemism of Paragus in the Afrotropical Region (12 out of 29).

Two new species belonging to the enigmatic doryctine genus Evaniodes Szépligeti, 1901 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), E.palikuri Braet, Ceccarelli & Zaldívar-Riverón sp. nov. and E. wayampisi Braet, Ceccarelli & Zaldívar-Riverón sp. nov.,are described from French Guiana. Two of the three previously described species of Evaniodes, E. areolatus Szépligeti,1901 and E. spathiiformis Szépligeti, 1901, are recorded for the first time for French Guiana. A key to the five described species of the genus is provided.Deux nouvelles espèces du genre Evaniodes Szépligeti, 1901 (Hymenoptera, Braconidae), E. palikuri Braet, Ceccarelli &Zaldívar-Riverón sp. nov. et E. wayampisi Braet, Ceccarelli & Zaldívar-Riverón sp. nov. sont décrites de Guyane fran-çaise. Parmi les trois autres espèces d’Evaniodes connues à ce jour, E. areolatus Szépligeti, 1901 et E. spathiiformis Szép-ligeti, 1901 sont également signalées pour la première fois de cette région. Une clé d’identification des 5 espèces est fournie.

Two previously unknown species of the genus Pseudapis Kirby, 1900 are described and illustrated: Pseudapis neumayeri Bossert & Pauly, sp. nov. (♂, ♀, Kenya, Tanzania), and P. crassivertex Bossert & Pauly, sp. nov. (♂, ♀, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal). We provide diagnoses for the new species and report all currently available records. Lastly, we present a revised identification key for the African species of the genus.
