Melanetettix gen. nov. is described from Melanesia for 22 new species of leafhoppers. The new species fall into four groups. New species described are M. bicolor, M. bifidus, M. capitatus, M. curvatus, M. delmoi, M. elongatus, M. maai, M. marginatus, M. ocellatus, M. pallidus, M. rhamphodes, M. roseus, M. semeraroae, M. sinuatus, M. aculeus, M. bifurcatus, M. truncatus, M. clavatus, M. ensiferus, M. nielsoni, M. rotundatus and M. alatus. An identification key to the new species is provided along with discussion of the affinities of Melanetettix, which is close to Scaphoideus Uhler.     

Revision of the genus Menippus Clark in Australia (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae)

Abstract  The genus Menippus is revised for Australia, with six species, three of which are new: M. cynicus Clark, M. darcyi sp. nov. , M. ewani sp. nov. , M. fugitivus (Lea), M. sufi sp. nov. and M. yulensis (Jacoby) comb. nov. (from Diorhabda Weise). Menippus yulensis was described from New Guinea. This species and M. darcyi were formerly confused in Australia with M. fugitivus , which is now considered endemic to Lord Howe Island. The species formerly considered M. fugitivus and protected under the Threatened Species Conservation Act, New South Wales, is now named M. darcyi . A key is provided for the Australian species of Menippus and a lectotype designated for M. yulensis . The composition of Menippus is discussed and three non-Australian species are transferred to this genus: M. inconspicua (Jacoby) comb. nov. (from Diorhabda Weise); M. laterimaculata (Jacoby) comb. nov. ; and M. marginipennis (Jacoby) comb. nov. (from Galerucella Crotch). A revised checklist of Menippus species is given. The recorded foodplants of Menippus are species of Celtis (Ulmaceae).     

Notes on Melanoseris lessertiana (Lactucinae,Asteraceae) and Morphologically Allied Species in the Pan Himalayan Region

Based on detailed study of available specimens and perusal of literature, it is shown that Melanoseris lessertiana or Mulgedium lessertianum is not present in China and corresponding reports in the floristic literature of China actually refer to a species originally described as Mulgedium qinghaicum, and correctly placed as Melanoseris qinghaica, a species here reported for the first time also for Bhutan. Mqinghaica can be clearly distinguished from Mlessertiana by achene shape and anther tube length. The rare and little known Yunnan endemic, originally described as Lactuca monocephala and tentatively considered as conspecific with Mlessertiana recently, is confirmed as an independent species related to the Matropurpurea complex. Of two recently described species from N Pakistan and Kashmir morphologically allied to Mlessertiana, Cicerbita alii is confirmed as a separate species and transferred to Melanoseris, while Castorensis is considered as conspecifc with Mlessertiana.     

A new species of Mimulus endemic to copper mines in California

MACNAIR, M. R., 1989. A new species of Mimulus endemic to copper mines in California . The distribution and morphology of Mimulus cupriphilus , a new species restricted to two small copper mines in Calaveras County, California, is described. A comparison of flowers collected in the wild of M. guttatus and the new taxon shows that they differ considerably. These two species and three other species from the M. guttatus complex, M. nasutus, M. laciniatus and M. nudatus were grown in a glasshouse and compared. The five species were all clearly distinct. The distribution of M. cupriphilus is consistent with it having evolved comparatively recently on one or both of the two copper mines on which it is found.     

Host-parasite associations of Eimeria spp. (Apicomplexa:Eimeriidae) in kangaroos and wallabies of the genus Macropus (Marsupialia:Macropodidae)

Faecal samples from 514 kangaroos and wallabies representing 12 species of the genus Macropus were examined for oocysts of Eimeria spp. Six species of Eimeria were redescribed from their type hosts, and on the basis of finding homologous oocysts in the faeces of other Macropus spp., host ranges for these coccidia were extended. Eimeria hestermani Mykytowycz, 1964 is redescribed from M. giganteus (eastern grey kangaroo) and is described from M. fuliginosus (western grey kangaroo), M. rufogriseus (red-necked wallaby), M. dorsalis (black-striped wallaby), and M. eugenii (tammar wallaby). E. toganmainensis Mykytowycz, 1964 is redescribed from M. rufus (red kangaroo) and the host range is extended to M. giganteus, M. fuliginosus, M. rufogriseus and M. eugenii. E. wilcanniensis Mykytowycz, 1964 is redescribed from M. rufus, and the host range is extended to M. giganteus, M. fuliginosus and M. robustus (euro or wallaroo). E. macropodis Wenyon & Scott, 1925 is redescribed from M. rufogriseus, and is described from M. giganteus, M. fuliginosus, M. rufus, M. irma (western brush wallaby), M. parryi (whip-tailed wallaby), M. dorsalis, M. eugenii, and M. parma (parma wallaby). E. fausti Yakimoff & Matschoulsky, 1936, E. cunnamullensis Mykytowycz, 1964 and E. purchasei Mykytowycz, 1964 are synonymized with E. macropodis. E. marsupialium Yakimoff & Matschoulsky, 1936 is redescribed from M. giganteus, and from M. fuliginosus. E. gungahlinensis Mykytowycz, 1964 is redescribed from M. fuliginosus, and from M. giganteus. Seven new species of Eimeria are described. E. flindersi, new species, is described from M. eugenii, M. rufogriseus, and M. antilopinus (antilopine wallaroo). E. prionotemni, new species, is described from M. eugenii, M. parryi, M. rufogriseus, M. agilis (agile wallaby) and M. dorsalis. E. mykytowyczi, new species, is described from M. agilis, M. antilopinus, and M. parryi. E. parryi, new species, is described from M. parryi. E. yathongensis, new species, is described from M. fuliginosus and M. giganteus. E. parma, new species, is described from M. parma, and E. desmaresti, new species, is described from M. rufogriseus. E. kogoni Mykytowycz, 1964, and E. rufusi Prasad, 1960 are considered species inquirendae. The host-parasite associations of these coccidia, and of similar species of Eimeria in other genera of Macropodoid marsupials, are discussed in relation to the postulated phylogeny of the hosts.     

Comparative leaf anatomy of the annual Muhlenbergia (Poaceae)

A leaf anatomical survey was conducted to gather critical data for interpreting relationships among 32 species of annual Muhlenbergia . Phenetic analyses, utilizing 14 anatomical characters, support recognition of four major species groups. These four major species groups are not concordant with previously reported groups. Muhlenbergia brandegei , known only from three islands in Baja California Sur, is believed to be more closely related to M. appressa, M. microsperma , and M. tenuifolia , rather than, M. biloba , as suggested in prior publication. Muhlenbergia diversiglumis is morphologically similar to species of Pereilema and does not show close affinities with other annual species of Muhlenbergia . Anatomically, M. ciliata, M. pectinata , and M. tenella are very similar and form the most distinctive group among the annual Muhlenbergia .     

Concluding contribution towards a revision of, and a key to, the genus Macrophthalmus (Crustacea: Brachyura)

In this ninth and final part of a revision of the ocypodid genus Macrophthalmus Latreille (Crustacea: Brachyura), eight species are considered— M. leptophthalmus (H. M. Edw.), M. boteltobagoe (Sakai), M. philippinensis SereGne, M. consobrinus Nobili, M. gastrodes Kemp, M. franchettii Maccagno, M. gallardoi SereGne and M. vietnamensis SereGne—and the status of a species previously considered valid, M. holthuisi SereGne, is reconsidered. Only M. leptophthalmus, M. boteltobagoe and M. philippinensis are considered valid. Macrophthalmus , as here revised, contains 38 living and three extinct species, whilst 33 species have been reduced to synonyms. These various species are summarily listed and a key to the living species is provided.
