The species of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Lentaria</Emphasis> (Gomphales,Basidiomycota) from China based on morphological and molecular evidence

Lentaria Corner is a widespread basidiomycetous genus composed of 17 known species. Most members of this genus are lignicolous and play important roles as decomposers in forest ecosystems. Lentaria specimens collected from China were studied using morphological and molecular methods. Five species were recognized, two of which, L. bambusina and L. uncispora, were described as new species. In addition, L. patouillardii was confirmed to be a new record from China. The remaining two species, L. byssiseda and L. surculus, were previously found in China. The two new species were described in detail, illustrated with line drawings and photographs, and compared with similar species. The other three species were redescribed to clarify their morphological characters and distribution patterns. Phylogeny of this genus was analyzed based on internal transcribed spacer sequences. Additionally, a key to Lentaria species in China is provided. Holotypes of the two new species are deposited in the Mycological Herbarium of Hunan Normal University.

Lenomyrmex, an enigmatic new ant genus from the Neotropical Region (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Myrmicinae)

Abstract. We describe a new myrmicine ant genus, Lenomyrmex , with four new species: L. mandibularis (type species) and L. foveolatus from Colombia, L. wardi from Ecuador and Colombia, and L. costatus from Panama. The new taxon is clearly distinguished from other myrmicine ants by the following combination of characters: (1) mandibles elongate-triangular, with crenulate masticatory margin three times longer than basal margin, and bearing a series of ten to twenty minute peg-like denticles that arise along and immediately behind the masticatory margin; (2) frontal lobes poorly expanded laterally, partly covering the antennal fossae; (3) large and deep antennal fossae; (4) antennal scrobes absent; (5) eyes protuberant; (6) petiole pedunculate, with poorly defined node and with an anteroventral subpetiolar process pointed anteriorly. The affinities of this new taxon within Myrmicinae remain unclear and the observed characters do not permit it to be included satisfactorily in any of the known tribes or genus groups of the subfamily.     

A new species of the rare buthid scorpion genus Lissothus Vachon, 1948 from Central Algeria (Scorpiones,Buthidae)

Taxonomic considerations are given for the genus Lissothus Vachon, 1948 (Scorpiones, Buthidae). Two species are currently known, Lissothus bernardi Vachon, 1948 from Libya and Lissothus occidentalis Vachon, 1950 from Mauritania. In this contribution, a new species, Lissothus chaambi sp. n., is described from the desert of Central Algeria. The new species is most closely related to L. bernardi. The geographical distribution of the genus is discussed.     

Octothrips lygodii sp. n. (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) damaging weedy Lygodium ferns in south-eastern Asia, with notes on other Thripidae reported from ferns

Abstract Weedy Lygodium ferns have become a serious fire hazard in Florida, introduced from the Old World Tropics. During joint CSIRO/USDA studies on potential biological control agents, a thrips species was found widely in south-eastern Asia causing severe damage to L. microphyllum . Described here as a new species, Octothrips lygodii , this is the second species of a poorly known genus that has been based on a single damaged male from Papua New Guinea. The genus is redefined, the two species distinguished, and notes given on the range of Thripidae reported from ferns worldwide.
