A new species of harpacticoid, Parastenocaris distincta sp. nov., is described and discussed. The new species was collected in a freshwater interstitial habitat near the mouth of a river in Western Mindoro Province, the Philippines. This is the second species of Parastenocaris described from this country. The medial ornamentation of P1 basis, the morphology of male P3 and the number and distribution of the integumental pores in the new species differ from those previously reported in other species of Parastenocaris. We review and discuss the more common arrangements of these features in recently described species, emphasizing the taxonomic discriminative value of their variations.

We describe a new species of reed snake of the genus Calamaria Boie 1827, from Mindoro Island, Philippines. The new species differs from all other species of Calamaria by having the following combination of characters: a high number of subcaudal scale pairs (> 40 in males, > 30 females) and ventrals + subcaudals (> 205 in males, > 210 in females); mental scale not contacting chin shields; dorsal surface of head, body, and tail uniformly dark brown; and ventral surface of body (extending to include part or all of first longitudinal row of dorsals) uniformly pale (yellow or white in life). The new species is likely most closely related to Calamaria schlegeli Duméril, Bibron, and Duméril 1854, which also has a high number of subcaudal scales compared to other Calamaria species. The new species is the second Calamaria species known from Mindoro Island and the eighth known from the Philippines, and its presumed distant relationship from other Philippine Calamaria suggests an additional colonization of the Philippines by this genus from continental Asia.

A New Species

Description of a new species of Megacampsomeris from Philippines (Hymenoptera, Scoliidae, Campsomerini). A new species belonging to the tribe Campsomerini, Megacampsomeris bitschi n. sp., is described from Philippines. The genus Fiharbuxa Argaman, 1996, created for Scolia prismatica Smith, 1855, is synonymized with Megacampsomeris Betrem, 1928. Finally, an illustrated key to species of Megacampsomeris likely to occur in the Philippines is presented.
