One New Species

One new species of Amphoraceras which has so far remained unrecognised and intermingled within A. rothschildi is described as A. jordani sp. n. Both species are endemic to New Guinea, where they even happen to locally coexist and overlap phenologically. Main diagnostic features between the two taxa occur in the development of the unusual amphora-shaped structure present on male antenna, which is herewith detailed morphologically, aspects of the habitus and features of the genitalia.

One New Species

A close study of the genus Papuzilla Ridley in conjunction with a revision of the genus Lepidium L. in Australia has revealed that these taxa are synonymous. Three species are recognized for New Guinea?two requiring new combinations, L. minutiflorum (Ridley) Hewson, L. laeteviride (P. Royen) Hewson?and one new species, L. maccowagei Hewson. The inflorescence is analysed.

Three new genera and 11 new species from New Guinea are described in the tribe Monophlebulini. Erropera, gen, nov., contains four new species: E. ablusa, E. papuensis, E, pilosa and E. sedlaceki; Modicicoccus, gen. nov., contains four new species: M. gagnei, M. kaindiensis, M. monticolus and M. rtewsteadi; and Peengea, gen. nov., contains one new species: P. affinis. Two new species of Mottophlehirlus Cockerell, M. enarotalicus and M. gressitti, are described. The adult females of all 11 new species and the first instar nymphs of E. sedlaceki and P. affinis are described. A marsupium associated with the genital opening of the adult female is reported for the first time in the tribe Monophlebulini.

One New Species

The genera Hoplopisthius and Carcinopisthius are reviewed. All the species are redescribed and illustrated and an updated identification key and distributional maps are provided. One new species from New Guinea is described (Hoplopisthius maximus n. sp.) and two new synonymies are proposed: Hoplopisthius celebensis Kolbe, 1892 = H. trichemerus Senna, 1892, n. syn. and Carcinopisthius lamingtoni Damoiseau, 1987 = C. forcipitiger Damoiseau, 1987, n. syn. Phylogenetic analysis using PAUP (maximum parsimony) was performed using 25 morphological characters of adults. This analysis shows the group Hoplopisthius + Carcinopisthius is monophyletic, but Carcinopisthius alone is paraphyletic. Nomenclatural changes at the generic level are made to reconcile nomenclature and phylogeny: Hoplopisthius is preserved; Carcinopisthius is downgraded to the rank of subgenus for the two oriental species H. oberthueri and H. fruhstorferi; and Pseudotaphroderes is resurrected as a third subgenus and includes all New-Guinean and Australian species.

AbstractGenus-group taxon Rhombodineutus Ochs, 1926 is related to Paracyclous Ochs (Indonesia) and Callistodineutus Ochs (Melanesia), classified under Dineutus MacLeay. It occurs in New Guinea and New Britain Island, inhabiting streams and rivers primarily at low and medium altitudes where the species may occur abundantly. Most species live in the forests and have a fairly restricted range, while D. pectoralis Régimbart has passed a niche shift and adapted to exposed and exploited land and spread widely, splitting into a considerable number of races, some of which were found at an elevation of 1500-2000 m. The morphological characters are reviewed and their differentiation examined as a background for the classification of the taxon and a revision of its species which have been placed in three groups, containing 8 species and 11 subspecies. One new species and four new subspecies are described. Keys are provided to the various groups of taxa.

The key includes eight genera known to occur in Australia and Papua New Guinea. These are Ctenarytaina Ferris & Klyver (type genus), Syncarpiolyma Froggatt, Eriopsylla Froggatt, Blastopsylla Taylor, Anoeconeossa Taylor, Leptospermonastes Taylor, and two new genera, Agelaeopsylla and Cryptoneossa. Keys to the species in Agelaeopsylh, Cryptoneossa and Leptospermonastes are given. Agelaeopsylla contains five new species, A. dividua (type species), A. maculatae, A. corymbiae, A. papuanae (which also occurs in Papua New Guinea), and A. insolita. They feed mainly on Angophora and two 'subgenera' of Eucalyptus (Corymbia and Blakella). The hosts of Cryptoneossa, which contains five new species, C. vulgaris (type species), C. occidentalis, C. triangula, C. minuta, and C. leptospermi, are mainly in the 'subgenera' Monocalyptus and Corymbia of Eucalyptus; some are found on Symphyomyrtus and smaller subgenera, one on Angophora, and one on Leptospermum. Two new species of Leptospermonastes are described; L. maculosipennis and L. fasciata were both collected from Melaleuca spp., a new host for this genus. Eriopsylla and its type species, E. viridis, are redescribed, with one new species, E. malleensis.

A taxonomic synopsis of the orchid genus Habenaria in New Guinea and adjacent islands is presented. We confirmed the occurrence of 27 Habenaria species in study area. Sixteen of these are endemic and were not so far found outside New Guinea. Morphological characteristics and illustrations of floral segments of taxa are presented. One new species of Habenaria is described. Four neotypes are selected. An updated key to species groups and species occurring in the study area is provided. The importance of diagnostic floral characters in Habenaria is discussed.

One new species of Hoya from Indonesia, Hoya batutikarensis, is described and illustrated. It is similar to H. camphorifolia but it has unusual corona lobes, each lobe has a spreading process at base and an apical triangular process, while the corona of H. camphorifolia has simple navicular lobes. Hoya ischnopus, a species so far only known to occur in New Guinea, is newly recorded in Sulawesi, considerably extending its distribution area.
