From a number of Trichoptera predominantly from Thailand, collected by W.L. and J.G. Peters, Florida A & M University, and Fred W. Knapp, University of Kentucky, the following new species are selected for description: Dipseudopsis ulmeri, akhila, petersorum, thailandica, and knappi of the family Dipseudopsidae and Pahamunaya jihmita, Pseudoneureclipsis saccheda, and Polycentropus vanachakuni of the family Polycentropodidae. Unless designated otherwise types will be deposited in the California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco, California. Some paratypes are in the Canadian National Collection of Insects, Ottawa.

Through the kindness of Mr. Hugh B. Leech I have been able to examine a large number of Pyralidae from the collection of the California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco. Five new species found in this material are described here. A new genus is described to accommodate two of the species, and two known species are transferred from the genus in which they were described

Species Descriptions

Recent examination of a large number of Rhyacophilidae has resulted in the establishment of some very interesting distributional records as well as the recognition of several new species. New species, descriptions of hitherto unassociated females or little known species, and new distributional records in the Rhyacophila, Glossosoma, Anagapetus, Agapetus, and Atopsyche are discussed in this paper I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. L. J. Milne of the University of Vermont for the generous loan of his Rhyacophila holotypes, fourteen of which are figured and briefly described herein. Material from the University of Massachusetts is designated as (Mass.), from the University of Minnesota as (Minn.), from the American Museum of Natural History as (AMNH), from the North Carolina Department of Agriculture as (NC) and from the California Academy of Sciences as (Cal.). Unless designated otherwise types are in the writer's collection at the University of Wyoming.

A New Species

Notes are provided on a collection of Afrotropical harvestmen (Opiliones: Palpatores: Phalangiidae) from the California Academy of Sciences. A new species of Rhampsinitus, R. conjunctidens n. sp., is described from Limpopo province of South Africa. Rhampsinitus flavobrunneus Staręga 2009 and R. silvaticus Lawrence 1931 are recognised as junior synonyms of R. nubicolus Lawrence 1963 and R. vittatus Lawrence 1931, respectively. Both R. conjunctidens and R. nubicolus are recognised as exhibiting strong male dimorphism with major males exhibiting larger body size and greatly enlarged chelicerae relative to minor males; minor males cannot be readily identified to species without examination of genitalia. A discussion is also provided on generic boundaries within Afrotropical Phalangiidae, and a generic key to males of the region is presented.

A new species of the genus Clastopus Fairmaire, 1898 is described and illustrated. At present this genus consists of five speciesdistributed on the island of Madagascar: C. aberlenci Iwan, 2005, C. eurynotoides Fairmaire, 1898, C. ordinarius (Iwan, 1996),C. tenuiculus (Iwan, 1996) and C. griswoldi sp. nov. The material studied was acquired from California Academy of Sciences expeditions conducted between 2000 and 2002. A key is proposed to the species of Clastopus.

A New Species

During a soil zoological expedition to São Tomé and Príncipe in 2010 by the California Academy of Sciences, millipedes of the genus Globanus were collected. Samples of G. marginescaber (Karsch, 1884) and G. integer (Karsch, 1884) were recovered in addition to those containing a new species. Globanus drewesisp. nov. is described and additional records, illustrations, and descriptive notes are given for the other two species. A key to all three species of the genus is provided, and a distribution map is presented. The monotypic genus Lobogonus Demange, 1971, which includes L. trilobatus Demange, 1971, from Sierra Leone, mainland western Africa, is revalidated and removed from synonymy under Globanus. Lobogonus is illustrated from a type specimen.

Spiders of the family Hahniidae from the rainforest area of Xishuangbanna are examined. Totally 7 species, including 5 new species are reported: Alistra annulata sp. nov. (male), A. hippocampa sp. nov. (male, female), Hahnia saccata sp. nov. (male, female), H. submaginii sp. nov. (male, female) and H. senaria sp. nov. (male, female). Two known species, Hahnia flagellifera Zhu, Chen & Sha, 1989 (male, female) and H. himalayaensis Hu & Zhang, 1990 (male, female) are firstly recorded from Yunnan Province and redescribed here. The genus Alistra is firstly recorded from China. Morphological descriptions, illustrations and photos of all species are given. All specimens are deposited in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing (IZCAS).
