In preparing a revision of the triaspidine genera which occur in North America, the author has considered all the genera of this group from the world, and has found some shifting of species necessary. The genus Foersterin was created in 1896 by Szépligeti for the reception of two new species described from Europe. At that time, both the genus and the two included species were rather inadequately characterized. This situation has continued to the present day and several authors have incorrectly placed several new species from other zoogeographical regions in this genus. This paper is an attempt to clarify the concept of Szépligeti's genus, and gives a redescription of F. laeviuscula Szépl.

Two new species of rhagidiid mites from the Nearctic region, Foveacheles pribilovi n.sp. and F. mexicana n.sp., are described. A detailed description of F. arenaria (Willmann) based on Canadian material is given. A key to adults of the known subgenera and 31 species of the genus Foveacheles Zacharda for the world is presented.

The key presents all 59 species of the genus Trichocera Meigen which occur in Europe. Four subgenera are represented: Trichocera Meigen 1803 (five species), Metatrichocera Dahl 1967 (seven species), Saltrichocera Krzemińska 2002 (35 species), and Staryia Krzemińska & Gorzka 2016 (13 species). The type material of two species, one from North America and one from Asia, are described (Trichocera columbiana Alexander, 1927 and T. arctica Lundström, 1915), whose identities cause some problems and whose presence in the northern regions of Europe is possible. Two new species are described, Trichocera (Saltrichocera) longa, n. sp., and T. (Staryia) oulankae, n. sp. Trichocera versicolor is resurrected from synonymy; T. limpidipennis is synonymized with T. regelationis. There are separate keys to males and females; species are illustrated with camera pictures of diagnostic features: genitalia, antennae, and male tarsal claws, and additionally, wings and thoraces when only one sex is known, to enable further search. The state of knowledge of the genus in Europe and in the world is discussed.

AbstractEight species of Epidamaeus of arctic western North America and extreme northeast, U.S.S.R. are discussed. Two new species, Epidamaeus hammerae and E. tritylos, are proposed and E. arcticolus, E. kodiakensis, E. mackenziensis, E. bakeri, E. coxalis and E. fortispinosus, previously described by Hammer, are redescribed.

Two new species of Bimastos Moore are described based on morphological and molecular data. Bimastos nanae n. sp. resembles B. lawrenceae Fender, B. zeteki (Smith and Gittins) and B. welchi (Smith). Bimastos nanae n. sp. differs from these species in the position of the clitellum, size and number and position of thickened septa. Bimastos magnum n. sp. is similar to B. schwerti Csuzdi & Chang and B. palustris Moore in having a fully annular clitellum and male pores on huge porophores. Bimastos magnum n. sp. differs from both species by having a more posterior position of the clitellum (in xxiv-xxxiii, xxxiv) and larger body size. With the description of these new species, the number of Bimastos species is raised to 14.

The family Tenuipalpidae from Greece is revised and keys to the Greek species of the gene­ra Aegyptobia, Brevipalpus, Cenopalpus, Pentamerismus and Tenuipalpus are provided. A key to the Greek tenuipalpid genera is also given. The species: Aegyptobia leiahensis, Phytoptipaipusparadoxus, Brevipalpus recki, Pentamerismus coronatus, P. juniperi, P. o­regonensis, Pseudoleptus zelihae, Dolichotetranychus floridanus, Raoiella macfarlanei and Obdulia tamaricis are recorded for the first time. Two new species Aegyptobia karys­tensis and Aegyptobia aliartensis are described and illustrated. Hosts, distributional data and relation to hosts are presented for each species. A revaluation of the world genera and subgenera of the Tenuipalpidae is presented.

AbstractMonelliopsis Richards is composed of small, pale aphids that occur mainly on the Juglandaceae and only in North America. The five known species are: caryae (Monell), nigropunctata (Granovsky), pleurialis Richards, bisetosa new species, and tuberculata new species. The new species were discovered in Chihuahua, Mexico. Monelliopsis nigropunctata is redescribed because the cotypes are a mixture of two species. A key to the known species is given.

In a very important revision of the Streblidae, Speiser (1900) classified them into two subfamilies: (1) the Nycteriboscinae and (2) the Streblinae. To the first subfamily he referred all the genera of the world, with the exception of Strebla and Euctenodes. Upon the presence of the ctenidium and some other characters these two American genera were included in the second subfamily. This classification of the subfamilies was also adopted by Kessel (1924, 1925).
