Leptinopterus affinis Parry and L. nitidus Lüderwaldt are very similar except for the femoral coloration, which is the main character that can be used to distinguish these two species. The femora in L. affinis are entirely dark yellow, while in specimens of L. nitidus they are totally black. After examining the types of Lüderwaldt at MZSP, I concluded that “ L. nitidus ab. lepidus Lüderwaldt, 1930 ” is actually L. affinis, and not L. nitidus as previously concluded by Benesh (1960) and Krajcik (2001). In addition, some specimens identified by Lüderwaldt (1935) as L. v-niger (Westwood) from Santa Catarina State were also L. affinis and L. nitidus specimens. Leptinopterus v-niger has its distribution restricted to eastern Brazil, not extending as far south, and is also not morphologically similar to the other species cited here. The elytral pattern is variable within these species and is not a good character for the identification of Leptinopterus species.
Leptinopterus affinis and L. nitidus are sympatric, found in the southern states of Brazil.

Type species of the genus: Thalassocrinus pontifer A.H. Clark, 1911.
Synonymy: A.H. Clark, 1911: 174; 1915: 160; Gislén, 1939: 13; Roux, 1980: 40–42; Mironov & Sorokina, 1998: 34; Roux, 2002: 174; Roux & Lambert, 2011: 48, 51.
Remarks. Roux & Lambert (2011) suspected Thalassocrinus to be a polyphyletic genus. They pointed out significant differences in anal sac features that suggested close affinities between (1) T. pontifer and Hyocrinus bethellianus Thomson, 1876, (2) T. alvinae Roux, 2002, and T. clausus Mironov & Sorokina, 1998, and (3) T. mironovi Roux, 2002, and Laubiericrinus pentagonalis Roux, 2004. Molecular phylogeny (Roux et al. 2013) confirmed that T. pontifer and H. bethellianus are closely related. DNA sequences from the four other species need to be added to get a better understanding of the interrelationships between these species. The genus Thalassocrinus sensu lato is therefore provisionally maintained.

nomen nudum: Leptinopterus elegans ab. catharinensis Lüderwaldt 1935: 490.
L. elegans Jakowleff and “ L. elegans ab. catharinensis Lüderwaldt” are misidentified in all the Brazilian collections I studied. After examining a picture of the holotype of L. gracilis Boileau and the label data from MNHN, I conclude that the true L. gracilis is the species from southern Brazil that has been called L. elegans. Specimens labeled L. gracilis probably belong to new species or other species that are not identified in Brazilian collections, and only after studying the remaining types of the genus will be possible to identify this species, or the true L. elegans. After reading the original description of L. elegans by Jakowleff (1900) it is difficult to know which species is being discussed. The type locality is São Paulo State without more precise data, and it is possible that L. elegans is a junior synonym of L. gracilis. “ Leptinopterus catharinensis Lüderwaldt ” was named as an aberrant form of L. elegans, but is actually a specimen of L. gracilis. It appears to be a mandibular variant of the more typical form of L. gracilis and is from the same orographic region. Both forms are collected together, and except for the form of the male mandibles, all other characters, including those of the aedeagus, are exactly the same.

description: Indostola Medvedev, 1991
Indostola Medvedev, 1991:557 (original description). Type species: Indostola pulchella Medvedev, 1991 (by original designation).
Diagnosis. The genus Indostola is characterized by eyes not divided into upper and lower parts by genae; eyes in lateral view not diminished to narrow transverse stripe of facets in lower part (Figs 27–28) as in Stenosis Herbst, 1799 (see MEDVEDEV 1994, Fig. 25); pronotum longer than wide and distinctly narrower than head; tempora almost parallel for one eye length behind posterior margin of eyes.
Remarks. The illustration of the elytra in MEDVEDEV (1991: Fig. 1) is not accurate, as in fact the elytra are narrowing gradually to elytral base (see Fig. 1 in this paper).

Tagenostola Reitter, 1916:151 (original description). Type species: Stenosis turkestanica Reitter, 1886, subsequently designatated by GEBIEN (1937).
Diagnosis. The genus Tagenostola is characterized by eyes not divided into upper and lower parts by genae; eyes in lateral view not diminished to narrow transverse band of facets in lower part; pronotum longer than wide and distinctly narrower than head; tempora almost straightly narrowed to cervical constriction; elytra are on humeral part suddenly narrowed to base.
Remarks. ARNDT & FERRER (1997) stated that the type species is T. turkestanica (Reitter, 1886) by ‘original description’. However, REITTER (1916) did not designate any type species for Tagenostola, but just included T. turkestanica and T. muelleri Reitter, 1916 in the genus. Subsequently GEBIEN (1937) stated that the type species is T. turkestanica, which the author of the present paper considers the type species designation.

description: To prepare a polyglycolic acid-loaded mitomycin drug (MMC-ATS-@PLGA) to inhibit scar proliferation after glaucoma filtering surgery (GFS) via an anti-inflammatory mechanism that minimally affected intraocular pressure, which provided another therapeutic strategy for this disease. We first detected the physicochemical properties of MMC-ATS-@PLGA. Next, we tested the biosafety of MMC-ATS-@PLGA in vivo and in vitro. Then, we assessed the therapeutic effects of MMC-ATS-@PLGA by laboratory and clinical examinations. In this study, we synthesized a new type of nanomedicine (MMC-ATS-@PLGA) with good stability and biocompatibility for inhibiting scar proliferation after GFS. The break-up time (BUT), Schimer test and intraocular pressure changes in GFS rabbits before and after treatment with MMC-ATS-@PLGA were not significantly different. Three weeks after GFS, the MMC-ATS-@PLGA group displayed significant decreases in nuclear volume, corneal cell oedema, type I and III collagen fibre expression, normal organelle morphology and collagen fibre arrangement. Compared with those in the FML and MMC groups, the α-SMA, CTGF and type III collagen fibres in the MMC-ATS-@PLGA group decreased more significantly, indicating that MMC-ATS-@PLGA can effectively inhibit the expression of these inflammatory factors during the inhibition of scar proliferation after GFS. We successfully synthesized MMC-ATS-@PLGA, which could effectively inhibit scar proliferation after GFS via anti-inflammatory effects but had little effect on intraocular pressure. This new type of nanomedicine has good biosafety and stability and is worthy of further exploration in clinical practice.

description: We report the anticancer activity, structure-activity relationships (SAR), molecular mechanism, and in silico docking studies of nine pentacyclic triterpenoids derived from lantadene A. The NCI-60 cytotoxicity screening of synthesized compounds on 60 human tumor cell lines, representing nine different cancers revealed that compound 6, bearing dual C-3 and C-22 butyryloxy substitutions at the pentacyclic triterpenoid scaffold, displays remarkable potency with mean growth inhibition of 98.7% at 10 μM. The SRB five-dose assay of compound 6 exhibited that it suppresses the growth of all NCI-60 cell lines with a GI50 value in the single-digit micromolar range, except for one. The Western blot analysis revealed that compound 6 inhibits the expression of IKK-β and its down-stream effector NF-κB (p65). Molecular docking analysis of compound 6 with IKK-β showed hydrogen bond interactions with GLN425 and ARG427 and hydrophobic contact with PHE424 residues as the prominent interactions. Molecular dynamics simulation of the docked complex suggested that the complex was fairly stable. Compound 7, possessing the isobutyryloxy groups at the analogous positions of compound 6 was the second-favorable anticancer agent. Conversely, the substitution of the hydroxy group in compounds emerged as the least favorable substitution at both the C-3 and C-22 positions of the pharmacophore. The presence of the 22β-angeloyloxy side-chain, akin to the natural product lantadene A, exhibited moderate favorability for enhanced activity. As a whole, the cytotoxicity data of compounds underscores the preference for linear and extended substitutions at both the C-3 and C-22 positions of the pharmacophore for heightened activity.

Type species. Indochillus bangaloreanus Kaszab, 1981, here designated.
Description. Body length 3.15–6.2 mm. Eyes completely divided by genae. Inner side of eyes with suborbital keel which is sometimes somewhat reduced. Genae widest before anterior margin of eyes. Tempora convex, narrowing to cervical constriction. Clypeus often concave with small tooth (Fig. 13), sometimes without tooth and straight. Antennomere 3 longer than antennomere 4. Pronotum with dense punctation, sometimes with mid-longitudinal impression. Pronotum longer than wide, widest between anterior quarter and anterior third. Lateral margin concave before pronotal base. Elytra oval, elytral base at most as wide as pronotal base. Elytra with 10 rows of punctures and 4 keels in intervals 3, 5, 7, and 9. Junction of interval 7 and 9 sometimes forming a small obliquely directed humeral corner (Figs 14–15). Wings absent. Posterior tibiae longer and thinner, width/length ratio of posterior tibia more than 0.16. Differential diagnosis. Pseudochillus gen. nov. can be distinguished from two closely related genera, Indochillus Koch, 1941 and Pseudethas Fairmaire, 1896, by elytral base at most as wide as pronotal base. Pseudochillus also has convex tempora; occiput without impression or with not sharply bordered impression withouth mid-longitudinal keel; antennomere 3 longer than antennomere 4; width/length ratio of posterior tibia more than 0.17, while Indochillus Koch, 1941 has concave tempora; occiput with sharply bordered triangular impression with midlongitudinal keel; antennomere 3 as long as antennomere 4; width/length ratio of posterior tibia 0.20.
Etymology. The name is a combination of Greek pseudo- (= false) and part of the name of the genus Indochillus for their close relation, gender masculine.
