Nupela major sp. nov., a new species of the diatom genus Nupela, is described from Maolan Nature Reserve, Guizhou Province, China. Observations were made using light and scanning electron microscopy documenting the size, shape and ultrastructure of the new species. Valves of the monoraphid frustules are elliptical-lanceolate with more or less cuneate, subtlety protracted ends. The raphe valve has a linear-lanceolate axial area and an irregularly-shaped central area. Striae appear intermittent or disrupted. The rapheless valve has a linear-lanceolate axial area widening in the center to form an asymmetrical central area that can in some specimens reach to the valve margin. The rapheless valve has a contoured valve face, with deep indentations in the axial area. The species is assigned to Nupela by virtue of its external occlusions on the areolae, and compared with similar species in the genus. The new species is found on stones beneath a waterfall and associated with a moss community.

Two species of Sinella Brook were discovered in an expedition to Maolan National Nature Reserve, Guizhou Province, China: S. maolanensis sp. nov. and S. colorata Zhang, Qu & Deharveng. The new species is characterized by the postlabial chaetae X, X2 and X4 ciliate and X3 smooth and the 6+6 central mac on the fourth abdominal segment. It differs from the closely related species by the combination of postlabial chaetae and abdominal chaetotaxy. Sinella colorata is a new record from the province. A key to the eyeless Sinella species from China is provided.

The Anthaxia (Anthaxia) midas Kiesenwetter, 1857 species-group is defined and revised. A new species from Turkey, A. (A.) cebecii sp. nov., is described and compared to its most similar species. A. midas oberthuri Schaefer, 1938 is elevated to the rank of species, and a lectotype is designated. A. (A.) spathuligera Obenberger, 1924 and A. (A.) midas muelleri Obenberger, 1925 are reconfirmed synonyms of A. midas Kiesenwetter, 1857.All species of the new species-group are illustrated, including the hitherto unknown male of A. (A.) patsyae Baiocchi, 2008, all type specimens and original data labels. In addition to diagnostic characters, informations on the distribution, biology and taxonomic position of each species are also presented, together with a short definition of the new species-group, and a key to its species.

Salvia daiguii Y.K.Wei & Y.B.Huang, a new species from China, is described. Salvia daiguii belongs to Salvia subg. Glutinaria (Raf.) G.X.Hu, C.L.Xiang & B.T.Drew, sect. Sobiso (Raf.) G.X.Hu, A.Takano & B.T.Drew, and is distinguished from morphologically similar species by differences in its habit, leaves, inflorescences and flowers. It has a narrow distribution in a karst region of Yongding District, Hunan Province, central China. A key to the Chinese species of section Sobiso is also presented.

A new species, Ilex jiangmenensis, is described from Gudoushan Provincial Nature Reserve of Jiangmen City, a coastal city in southern Guangdong, China. It was observed to grow in rock crevices or beside the evergreen broad-leaved forests in the mountains of Gudoushan and Nanfengshan at an elevation of 50–550 m. The new species differs from its morphologically most similar species I. pingheensis by its much smaller leave blade, acute or short acuminate apex of leave blade, pistillate inflorescences with fascicles 1–2(–4)-flowered, and staminate inflorescences with individual branches of the fascicles (1)–3-flowered.

During a survey of araneogenous fungi from Guizhou Province, China, a new species, Akanthomyces araneogenum, was isolated from a spider, Araneus sp. It differs from other Akanthomyces species by its spider host, Isaria-like conidiogenous structure, and mostly globose and smaller conidia (1.6–2.2 μm). Multi-locus (ITS, LSU, RPB1, RPB2 and TEF) phylogenetic analysis confirmed that A. araneogenum is distinct from other species. The new species is formally described and illustrated, and compared with similar species.

Seventeen species of tardigrades were found in this study. All species are new records for Guizhou Province, including two new records for China (Echiniscus perviridis and Doryphoribius zappalai) and one (Doryphoribius huangguoshuensis sp. nov.) new for science. The new species differs from the most similar species of the genus Doryphoribius mainly by different configuration of gibbosities on dorsal side of the body (configuration 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, 2 in the new species; 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 in D. dupliglobulatus; 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, 2, 3 in D. gibber; 6, 4, 6, 4, 6,4, 4, 2 in D. zyxiglobus).

Specimens of Coccomyces collected from Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve in Guizhou Province of China were identified as a new species and named as Coccomyces fanjingshanensis. Phylogenetic analyses of the ITS gene and combined LSU and mtSSU genes indicate that this new taxon has a close relationship with Coccomyces huangshanensis, Coccomyces cupressinus and Coccomyces radiatus.The type collection was deposited in the Herbarium of the College of Life Science, Capital Normal University, Beijing, China (BJTC).
