AbstractDescriptions of Procloeon rubropictum (McD.), P. quaesitum (McD.), and P. rufostrigatum (McD.) are expanded to include features not previously published. A description of the nymph of P. quaesitum is given for the first time. Procloeon irrubrum sp.nov. is described from nymphs and female imagoes. From our interpretation of preliminary data, it is possible that P. rufostrigatum and P. rubropictum form one species group; P. quaesitum is included with P. pennulatum (Eaton) in another. Procloeon irrubrum does not fit either species group but shows some affinities to the P. rufostrigatum group. Some characters for separating the nymphs of Procloeon and Centroptilum are given.

A New Species

DNA barcoding is used to verify characters to morphologically differentiate genetically distinct species of eastern North American small carpenter bees, Ceratina. Here we reveal that the common eastern North American species, Ceratina dupla s. l., is actually three separate species based on fixed differences in DNA barcode sequences and morphological characters. This study adds a new species, C. mikmaqi Rehan & Sheffield, to the Ceratina dupla species-group of eastern North America, and raises another form, C. floridana formerly C. dupla floridana, to full species. Temporal niche partitioning between C. dupla and C. mikmaqi and geographic isolation of C. floridana further support the division of the C. dupla s. l. group into three species. A diagnosis and description of the new species are provided, as is a key for eastern North American species of Ceratina.

AbstractThe genusDyschiriusincludes 56 North American species which are arranged in 13 species groups. Keys are provided for the species groups and the species. Four new species are described:D.sculptusBousquet (type locality: Pass-a-Grille Beach, Florida);D.ferrugineusBousquet (type locality: Goose Island State Park, Texas);D.larochelleiBousquet (type locality: 6 mi. S Lake Placid, Florida); andD.comatusBousquet (type locality: Highlands Hammock, Florida). Six species names are placed in synonymy for the first time. They are (with the junior synonym listed first):D.arizonicusVan Dyke 1943 =D.interiorFall 1922;D.duplicatesFall 1901 =D.affinisFall 1901;D.desertusFall 1925 =D.perversusFall 1922;D.subpunctatusHatch 1949 =D.sphaericollis(Say 1825);D.basalisLeConte 1857 andD.transmarinusMannerheim 1853 =D.integerLeConte 1851. The adult and larval character states of the genus are listed and comments are provided for each species group.

Abstract The description of a new species of an erymid lobster, Stenodactylina beardi, from the Upper Cretaceous Haslam Formation of the Nanaimo Group on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, brings to fifteen the number of Erymidae in North America. The species are arrayed within five genera based upon configuration of carapace groove morphology, resulting in two new combinations, Stenodactylina bordenensis (Copeland, 1960) and S. foersteri (Feldmann, 1979). The new species exhibits for the first time a male pleopod and accessory structures within Erymoidea. We also provide a list of the North American species of Erymoidea.

AbstractMorphological, life history, and distributional data are presented for North American species of the subgenus Stygomomonia (sensu stricto) Szalay, 1943. Adults of the seven previously recognized species are redescribed, and deutonymphs of five of these species are described for the first time. Two species, S. (s.s.) neomexicana Cook and S. (s.s.) occidentalis Cook are substantially revised on the basis of an examination of the types and extensive series of newly collected specimens. Three new species are described, S. (s.s.) californiensis on the basis of deutonymphs and adults, and S. (s.s.) imamurai and S. (s.s.) cooki on the basis of adults. A new diagnosis of the subgenus is proposed and discussed, the relationships of the various species are discussed, and a key to deutonymphs and adults of North American species is presented. New distributional data are presented for all species, and dispersal patterns from Pleistocene refugia are discussed.

Dichotomius (Dichotomius) quadrilobatus new species (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae: Dichotomiini), from western Amazonia (Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru) is described and its putative systematic position within the Dichotomius boreus species group is discussed. An updated identification key to the species of the Dichotomius boreus species group is provided. Additionally, Dichotomius (Selenocopris) fortepunctatus Luederwaldt, 1923 is recorded for the first time in Colombia.

The E. ovina group of species is proposed here to include Edessa ovina Dallas, 1851 from Trinidad and Tobago, Colombia, Paraguay, Brazil, Argentina (new records) and Guyana; E. impura Bergroth, 1891 from Brazil and Argentina (new record); E. sahlbergii Stål, 1872 restricted to Brazil; and E. graziae sp. nov. from Brazil and Argentina. The E. ovina group can be identified by the apex of the second pair of wings narrowing distally and by a tumid area on the ventral surface of the pygophore (male genitalia) projected posteriorly. Descriptions, measurements, and illustrations of the metasternal process, external and internal genitalia of male and female are provided. A map with the distribution of the species is presented. The holotype of Edessa ovina is designated here. Edessa argali Breddin, 1903 is considered a junior synonym of E. impura. Females of E. ovina and E. impura, and male of E. sahlbergii are described for the first time.
