Two New Species

The Palaearctic gelechiid genus Psoricoptera Stain ton, 1854 is revised. Two previously described species, gibbosella (Zeller) and speciosella Teich are recognized based on differences in genitalia; both have a trans-Palaearctic distribution. Their distinction is supported by differences in the morphology and biology of the early stages. Chelaria triorthias (Meyrick) and Lita lepigreella Lucas are placed in synonymy with gibbosella (syn. n.). Two new species P. latignathosa sp. n. P. kawabei sp. n. are described from E. Asia. Infraspecific variation in the genitalia of Psoricoptera is discussed.

This study rectifies several probable errors in recent research regarding synonymy of Amphidromus Albers, 1850, the infraspecific variation of which is extreme and can lead to improper nomenclature assignments. Two new species of Amphidromus recorded from Vietnam and Thailand are also described.

Two New Species

A little known tachinid genus, Metadrinomyia Shima, is revised based on four East Asian species including two new to science: M. flavifrons sp. nov. and M. xanthokolos sp. nov. The majority of the specimens used in this study were collected from low vegetation in the foothills of mountains in South Korea. The new species can be clearly distinguished from their congeners by their pruinosity, chaetotaxy and genitalic structures. A key, descriptions, photographs, and illustrations of the male genitalic structures are provided and the phylogenetic relationships among the species are investigated.

Two New Species

Two East Asian Lomariopsis (Lomariopsidaceae, Polypodiales) species, Lomariopsis moorei and Lomariopsis longini, which were previously misidentified as L. spectabilis, are here described as new species based on evidence from morphological characters and a molecular phylogeny. The two species differ from the three other described species in East Asia by their venation, pinna shapes, and perine morphology. A phylogeny based on a combined dataset of three chloroplast regions (rbcL+ rps4-trnS + trnL-L-F) showed that L. moorei and L. longini each formed a well-supported monophyletic group which was distantly related to both L. spectabilis and the other morphologically similar East Asian species, L. boninensis.

Prionocyphon costipennis sp. nov. and P. macrodascilloides sp. nov. are described from North Taiwan. Orientoprionocyphon Klausnitzer is a new synonym of Mescirtes Motschulsky. Prionocyphon herthae Klausnitzer, Prionocyphon laosensis Yoshitomi et Satô, Prionocyphon rutai Klausnitzer, Prionocyphon ruthsteuerae Klausnitzer, Prionocyphon weigeli Klausnitzer, and Prionocyphon yoshitomii Klausnitzer are transferred to Mescirtes. Prionocyphon picigrandis is a new substitute name for Cyphon grande Pic (nec Cyphon grandis Tournier). Prionocyphon minusculus Klausnitzer is transferred to Mescirtes. Prionocyphon ovalis Kiesenwetter is reported from China for the first time. A key to the genera of Scirtidae with modified antennae, and a key to the East and Southeast Asian species of Prionocyphon are included. A catalogue of Mescirtes, Prionocyphon and Prionoscirtes inhabiting East and Southeast Asia is presented.

Revision of herbarium specimens from Asia revealed the existence of two previously unnoticed species. We describe two new species of Carex from Himalayan eastern Asia. Carex barbayaki is closely related to C. dielsiana (section Decorae). Carex herbacoeli seems to be allied to C. fuliginosa (section Aulocystis). Pictures are provided.

Two new species of Scolytinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are described from Jammu and Kashmir, Pseudothysanoes kashmirica sp. nov. and Sphaerotrypes montanus sp. nov. These discoveries mark the first records of the genera Pseudothysanoes Blackman,1920 from South Asia and Sphaerotrypes Blandford, 1894 from the Northwestern Himalayan region. A discussion on the biology of the new species together with a complete key to the known species of Sphaerotrypes from South Asia are provided.

Group A

TheAenictuswroughtoniispecies group is widely distributed in Asia. The members of this group are characterised by a slender body, long legs, anterior clypeal margin with 5–10 denticles and a weakly-developed subpetiolar process. Twelve worker-based species of this group have been recorded from Asia. Herein, two new species from Thailand (Aenictusnuchitisp. n.andAenictussamungisp. n.) are added to this group. A key to the Asian species of this group is provided.
