Abstract We describe a new species of shorebird, tentatively referred to the family Charadriidae, from the Huadian Formation (Middle Eocene) in Jilin Province, China. In general morphology the specimen closely matches that of an extant charadriid, and corresponds in size to the Killdeer (Charadrius vociferus). If correctly identified this is the oldest record of the Charadriidae. The Middle Eocene paleoenvironment of the Huadian region is thought to have resembled a subtropical swamp. Un Ave Playera de China del Eoceno Medio Resumen. Describimos una nueva especie de ave playera, tentativamente clasificada como de la Familia Charadriidae, de la Formación Huadian (Eoceno Medio) en la Provincia de Jilin, China. En términos de morfología general, el ejemplar coincide mayormente con la morfología de un charádrido actual, y se asemeja en tamaño a Charadrius vociferus. Si la identificación es correcta, este representa el registro más antiguo para la Familia Charadriidae. El paleoambiente del Eoceno Medio de la región de Huadian se asemejaba probablemente a un pantano subtropical.

Northeast Indian amphibian systematics and taxonomy is receiving increasing interest from herpetologists in recent years as remote, previously unexplored areas become more accessible for surveying. Even locations nearby cosmopolitan cities have the potential to produce taxonomic novelties. Herein we describe a new species of Megophrys from the foot-hills of the East Khasi Hills, northern Meghalaya, and adjacent forest in Garbhanga Reserve Forest, and Mayeng Hill Reserve Forest nearby the city of Guwahati, southern Assam. Megophrys megacephala sp. nov. is here compared with all Asian mainland congeners. This species altitudinal distribution is the lowest of all known Megophrys described from India and surrounding countries. A brief discussion is provided regarding some of the current difficulties faced by taxonomists working on the genus and several major problems in recent descriptions of congeners from Northeast India.

Among the 15 extant genera of Tomoceridae, Tomocerus, with 73 species, is the largest. Most Tomocerus spp. have been described or reported from East Asia (Korea, Japan, China), 41 of them from China. Tomocerus spp. are large, active and epigaic, living in leaf litter. A new species, Tomocerus jilinensis sp. nov., is described from China here; setal variations of the ventral tube and blunt setae on hind foot of T. kinoshitai Yosii are also described. Both species were found on the Changbaishan Mountain, Jilin Province, China.

A new species of the perlodid genus Filchneria Klapálek, F. dongruihangi sp. nov. is described and illustrated based on male and female from Heilongjiang Province of northeastern China. The new species is distinctive by the unique shape of female subgenital plate. Morphological comparisons are provided with related taxa. In addition, the taeniopterygid species, Taenionema japonicum (Okamoto) was collected from Jilin Province of northeastern China and supplemented with new illustrations.

We describe a new species of the genus Lygosoma from northeastern Cambodia based on a single voucher specimen col-lected from Veun Sai Proposed Protected Forest, Veun Sai District, Ratanakiri Province. Lygosoma veunsaiensis sp. nov.is differentiated from all congeners occurring in mainland Southeast Asia by the combination of the following characters:outer ear opening absent; supranasals distinct and separated from each other by frontonasal; supranasals not fused withnasals; midbody scales in 22 rows; fontoparietals paired; five supralabials; a light stripe present on outer edge of the dor-sum; and a dark dorsolateral stripe present, from behind the eye to the tail. A key to the Southeast Asian mainland species of Lygoma is provided.

Variation in the currently recognized species, Barbatula nuda (Bleeker 1865), from North China was studied, and threedistinct species are identified: B. nuda, B. toni, and B. gibba sp. nov.. The name B. nuda is presently misapplied; this speciesis distinct from B. toni, a species widely distributed in Northeast China, and occurs only in the Liao-He basin of LiaoningProvince and the Tumen-Jiang basin of Jilin Province. The new species, B. gibba, is only found in Dali-Nur Lake in Inner Mongolia. Among Chinese Barbatula species, it is uniquely distinguished by the shape of the predorsal body.
