A small (6-7 mm.) brownish testaceous species, with semi-transparent elytra and pronotum, and narrow metasternal lobes. It has somewhat the facies of colymbus described in this paper, but is not closely allied to it or to any described North American species.

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.

The Individual

The results are given of a survey of the cestode fauna of several thousand fishes representing thirty species common in the Hudson bay drainage system, particularly in the Hudson bay and in the larger lakes of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The survey yielded twelve species of adult and seven species of larval cestodes, ten of which were identical with European species, while seven were purely North American. The incidence of infection was high and the individual intensity was heavy. The highest incidence and heaviest intensity occurred among nektonic types such as Hiodon, Leucichthys, Esox, Lucioperca and Salvelinus. Benthonic forms such as Catostomus, Ameiurus, Lota, Acipenser and Coregonus, were found relatively free from infection.The North American species of Cyathocephalus and Diplocotyle are regarded as identical with the European species C. truncatus and D. Olrikii; the species C. americanus Cooper, and Bothrimonus intermedius Cooper are rejected. The triaenophorid common in the area is regarded as Triaenophorus tricuspidatus (Bloch), and two morphae are recognized, microdentatus and megadentatus, the latter equivalent to T. robustus (Olsson). Bothriocephalus cuspidatus Cooper is regarded as comprising three sub-species, cuspidatus, hiodontos and luciopercae. The eubothriid cestode in Lota lota maculosa is regarded as identical with the European E. rugosum, but comprising two morphae, conformatus and deformatus. Two new species of Proteocephalus are described, namely coregoni from Coregonus atikameg, and luciopercae from Lucioperca vitreum.

Three New Species

AbstractThree new species are described in the caddisfly family Uenoidae: Neothremma prolata, from Hood River County, Oregon; Neothremma mucronata from Lassen County, California; and Farula constricta from Multnomah County, Oregon. Following examination of the holotypes of several species, misinterpretation of the male genitalia morphology of Farula wigginsi Denning is corrected, leading to the recognition of that name as a junior synonym of F. petersoni Denning. Interpretation of male genitalic morphology in the original description of F. geyseri Denning is revised. Phylogenetic relationships are inferred from male genitalic morphology for the species of Neothremma and Farula. Biogeographic patterns of the species in both genera are highly congruent with the phylogenies.

Three new species of Botryotinia on Caltha palustris L., Ranunculus septentrionalis Poir., and Ficaria verna Huds. (Ranunculaceae) are described as B. calthae Hennebert and Elliott, B. ranunculi Hennebert and Groves, and B. ficariarum Hennebert. Each of the three species has a Botrytis state of the B. cinerea complex, and they thus constitute additions to the species already segregated from that complex, i.e. Botryotinia fuckeliana, B. convoluta, B. draytoni, and B. pelargonii. The Botrytis state of B. ficariarum can be distinguished morphologically.While B. ranunculi is a North American species and B. ficariarum an European one, B. calthae is reported from both continents.

The morphology, cytology, distribution, and phylogeny of eight species of the southwestern United States closely related to Cirsium arizonicum are considered. These species form a natural group distinguished from other North American species of Cirsium by a short stigma (1–3 mm) and long corolla lobes (10–20 mm) which are longer than the corolla throat. Three new species described are C. chellyense, C. chuskaense, and C. navajoense. Original chromosome counts are presented for C. nidulum, 2n = 34; C. rothrockii, 2n = 30; C. arizonicum, n = 15; C. chuskaense, 2n = 34; and C. arizonicum × nidulum, 2n = 32, 34.

Three New Species

Three North American species ofLatalusand four ofQuontuswere listed by Oman (1999). Two of these are conspecific with a third and three new species are described below. Two of the previously described species have not been found in Canada and are not discussed here. They areDeltocephalus latidensSanders and DeLong (1919, p. 234) andLatalus uncinatusBeamer and Tuthill (1934, p. 6). They are distinguished by genitalic characters described in the original descriptions.QuontusOman (1949) is treated here as a synonym ofLatalusDeLong and Sleesman (1929), as the distinctions given by Oman (1949) intergrade and do not always hold good. Canadian species ofLatalusapparently inhabit grasslands. The best specific characters are in the internal male genitalia, though the female seventh sternite shows valid characters in some species.

AbstractThree new species of Micropeplidae are described from Latin America, Micropeplus newtoni from Mexico, Peplomicrus mexicanus from Mexico, and Peplomicrus pecki from Colombia, bringing the total number of New World species to 21. A revised key to aid in the identification of the Micropeplidae of Latin America is presented. New distributional data are given for 10 other species of the family and revised distributional maps are given for the North American species Micropeplus sculptus, M. laticollis, and M. robustus.
