A new species of Setostephanolaimus Tchesunov, 1994, S. longiseta sp. nov. was discovered in an intertidal sand beach along the Rizhao coast of the Yellow Sea. It is characterized by its long and slender body, long cephalic setae (longer than 20 m and 16 m in males and females, respectively) and subcephalic setae, long spicules (longer than 90 m), gubernaculum with dorsal hooked apophyses, along with presence of 1012 tubular precloacal supplements in males. Updated dichotomous key for species of the genus Setostephanolaimus is also given.The description of an extinct species of Metaclisa Jacquelin du Val, 1861 (Tenebrionidae) is presented. This genus and the tribe Metaclisini are recorded as fossils for the first time, from Eocene Baltic amber. The new species Metaclisa ottoi sp. nov. belongs to the subgenus Trichometaclisa subgen. nov. and differs from all other Metaclisini in possessing short, fine recumbent setation on the pronotum and elytra; in addition, the prosternal process in Metaclisa ottoi sp. nov. is roundly bent down and weakly projected behind the procoxae, which differs from extant species.Elegia species deposited in the Hayk Mirzayans Insect Museum (HMIM) were examined and three species were identified. Elegia kharazii sp. nov. is described based on a single male and two females collected in Gilan and Golestan Provinces, Iran and compared with the externally similar European species E. similella (Zincken, 1818). Elegia saecula Kemal, Kzlda Kok, 2020 (syn. nov.) is considered as a junior synonym of Elegia iozona (Meyrick, 1937). Elegia atrifasciella Ragonot, 1887, collected in the north-west Iran (East Azarbaijan Province), is a new species for the fauna of Iran.N/A.Morphological characters, as presently applied to describe members of the Paguristes tortugae Schmitt, 1933 species complex, appear to be of limited value in inferring phylogenetic relationships within the genus, and may have similarly misinformed understanding of relationships between members of this complex and those presently assigned to the related genera Areopaguristes Rahayu McLaughlin, 2010 and Pseudopaguristes McLaughlin, 2002. Previously undocumented observations of similarities and differences in color patterns among populations additionally suggest genetic divergences within some species, or alternatively seem to support phylogenetic groupings of some species. In the present study, a Maximum Likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis was undertaken based on the H3, 12S mtDNA, and 16S mtDNA sequences of 148 individuals, primarily representatives of paguroid species from the western Atlantic. This molecular analysis supported a polyphyletic Diogenidae Ortmann, 1892, although incomplete taxonomic sampling nd coloration.Eoteredon lacoi gen. et sp. nov., is described from the early Eocene Green River Formation in Wyoming, the second fossil siricid genus and species described from North America. We propose Eoteredon as sister to the genus Teredon, whose sole species is one of the rarest of extant Siricidae. The majority of siricids today inhabit temperate Northern Hemisphere forests; Teredon cubensis, however, is one of its few species that live in megathermal tropical lowlands. The Eocene forest that Eoteredon inhabited had a mesothermal to megathermal climate. We place Eoteredon in the context of broad Cenozoic climate change.A new species of dung beetle, Stiptopodius brancoi Strmpher Daniel, new species, from Namibia, is diagnosed, described, and illustrated. The new species is the first Stiptopodius recorded from the country and belong to the singularis species group. A revised key as well as a checklist of Stiptopodius species recorded from the African continent are provided.In the present study the taxonomy of the species of the genus Trioserica Moser, 1922 from China is revised. We recorded so far six valid species, of which five resulted to be new to science Trioserica cangyuanensis Ahrens, Liu Fabrizi, new species, T. daweishana Ahrens, Liu Fabrizi, new species, T. dinghushanica Ahrens, Liu Fabrizi, new species, T. lilongensis Ahrens, Liu Fabrizi, new species, and T. shiyiduiensis Ahrens, Liu Fabrizi, new species. The habitus and male genitalia of the species are illustrated and maps of their known distribution are shown.A new species, Schizodactylus jimo He sp. nov., is described from Yunnan, China. The Schizodactylidae is recorded from China for the first time. The new species is similar to S. salweenensis, but different based on the shape of epiproct and other characters. The type specimens are deposited in the Museum of Biology, East China Normal University (ECNU).In Colombia, the status of the Neotropical genus Pachychernes Beier, 1932 is unknown. The only available data in literature to support the presence of this genus is an adult of P. aff. subrobustus, possibly female, from copal resin without specific locality data, and a record at generic level from Northern Colombia. In this study, we extend the distribution of Pachychernes by describing a new species, P. florezi sp. n. and several reporting individuals of P. zehorum Muchmore, 1997 from Montes de Mara and the Caribbean coast of the country. These species are clearly differentiated from one another by the sexual dimorphism in the latter species, with a depression on the tarsus I in males. We also present an updated key for all species of the genus.The genus Orchestoidea Nicolet, 1849 is geographically restricted to sandy beaches of the southeastern Pacific coast of Chile, being found from 23S (Antofagasta, northern Chile) to 45S (Guamblin Island, southern Chile), along a latitudinal gradient of ca. 2,400 km. Orchestoidea tuberculata Nicolet, 1849, the only known species for the genus, was originally described from Valparaso Bay, central Chile (33S). However, the published morphological descriptions are incomplete and a comparison with populations along the entire distributional range is difficult, because the type material is considered lost. In this paper, we selected a male specimen recently obtained from a site close to the type locality, to designate a neotype for O. tuberculata. EGFR signaling pathway A detailed description and illustrations of this specimen are also provided to establish a basis for further analysis of Orchestoidea.Alburnus battalgilae zulu Freyhof, 2007 from the Gediz River drainage in western Anatolia is a junior synonym of A. attalus zulu Freyhof, 2007, from the adjacent Bakr River drainage. We were unable to confirm the morphological differences originally proposed. As both species have been described in the same publication, as First Reviewers, we prioritise of A. attalus over A. battalgilae.N/A.The genus Phylladiorhynchus Baba, 1969 currently contains 11 species, all occurring in the shallow waters and on the continental shelf of the Indian and Pacific oceans. Recent expeditions in these oceans have resulted in the collection of numerous new specimens in need of analysis. We have studied this material using an integrative approach analysing both morphological and molecular (COI and 16S) characters. We describe 41 new species and resurrect three old names P. integrus (Benedict, 1902) and P. lenzi (Rathbun, 1907), previously synonymized with P. pusillus (Henderson, 1885), and P. serrirostris (Melin, 1939), previously synonymized with P. integrirostris (Dana, 1852). Most species of the genus are described and illustrated. Some species are barely discernible on the basis of morphological characters but are highly divergent genetically. Species of Phylladiorhynchus are mainly distinguishable by the number of epigastric spines and lateral spines of the carapace, the shape and the armature of the rostrum, the number and pattern of the ridges on the carapace and pleon, the shape of thoracic sternite 3 and the armature of the P24 dactyli. A dichotomous identification key to all species is provided.Based on field work mostly done in the late 20th century, a survey is given on the diversity and distribution of spring- and stream-dwelling water mites of the family Hygrobatidae in Italy. Five species, all representatives of the subgenus Atractides Koch, 1837 s. str., are described as new to science Atractides asinus sp. nov., A. castor sp. nov., A. cydonius sp. nov., A. dinisi sp. nov., and A. pollux sp. nov.. A further 13 species are recorded for the first time from Italy Atractides anellatus Lundblad, 1956, A. asticae Petrova, 1968, A. denticulatus Walter, 1947, A. fissus (Walter, 1927), A. fluviatilis (Szalay, 1929), A. glandulosus (Walter, 1918), A. graecus K. Viets, 1950, A. lunipes Lundblad, 1956, A. remotus Szalay, 1953, A. subterraneus (K. Viets, 1932), Hygrobates arenarius Smit Pei, 2017, H. setosus Besseling, 1942, and H. cf. turcicus Pei, Esen Dabert, 2017. In summary, a total number of 66 hygrobatid species is now known from the area treated. Previous records of Atractides allgaier Gerecke, 2003 from Corsica and Sardinia, and of A. lunipes Lundblad, 1956 from Corsica, refer to A. castor sp. nov., resp. A. corsicus E. Angelier, 1954. Redescriptions are given for seven remarkable and/or incompletely documented species Atractides asticae, A. fluviatilis, A. graecus, A. inflatipalpis K. Viets, 1950, A. lunipes, A. protendens K.O. Viets, 1955, and A. remotus. Problems concerning diagnostic features are discussed for several species. Atractides fluviatilis, A. valencianus K. Viets, 1930 and A. inflatipalpis, along with two species not recorded from Italy, namely A. algeriensis (Lundblad, 1942) and A. stancovici Pei Gerecke, 2010, are summed up in a fluviatilis species group. Within this clade, several species tend to grade into each other morphologically, and females cannot be classified with certainty.The recent paper by Bariche Fricke (2020) presents an updated checklist of the marine fish species in Lebanon including 367 fish species, 70 non-indigenous and 28 new records. According to Bariche Fricke (2020), the inventory is based on the published scientific papers related to the marine fishes in Lebanon, since Gruvel (1928, 1931), as well as grey literature, images published in newspapers or on local websites and social media. However, important scientific papers and published reports, providing important data on marine fishes in Lebanon, were missed. Hereby we cite twelve scientific papers [Nafpaktitis (1963), Bath (1977), Shiber (1981), Moosleitner (1988), Lakkis et al. (1996), Bariche (2006), Bariche et al. (2006); Bitar et al. (2007), Bariche Trilles (2008), Bitar (2010), Khalaf et al. (2014), and Bitar (2015) in Zenetos et al. (2015)], twelve national reports [the national report of Abboud Abi Saab et al. (2003) under the framework of a Libano-Franco cooperation, the national report of Majdalani (20. In this context and based on the Lebanese literature, Bariche Fricke (2020) missed the reports of 9 species (Table 1). Therefore, the list of marine fish of Lebanon (Bariche Fricke, 2020) is enriched reaching 376 species, 71 of which are non-indigenous species (See suppl.file 1). In agreement with Zenetos Galanidi (2020) we state that even the current update may contain errors, as species invasions are dynamic phenomena, where new information continually comes to light, whether from new observations or from re-examination of older material, changes in nomenclature and phylogenetic studies.
