Ischnorhina

description: Genus Ischnorhina
Ischnorhina Stål, 1869: 14; Metcalf, 1961: 75; Carvalho, 1993: 172. Type species: Cercopis ephippium Fabricius, 1803: 91, by subsequent designation of Lallemand, 1949: 161.
Generic Diagnosis: The postclypeus is strongly compressed laterally, acutely angled in profile, with slightly marked lateral grooves and a strongly marked lateral ridge. The main feature of the genus is the presence of a swollen process on the dorsal margin of the parameres. The aedeagus is robust, with two pairs of flattened, fin-like processes.
Distribution: Brazil, French Guiana, Bolivia and Ecuador.

Distribution. Previously known from Brunei, China, Malaysia (Sheng et al. 2013; Reshchikov et al. 2019). These are the first records of this species from Vietnam.
Remarks. In comparison to the holotype specimen from China, the Vietnamese specimens have a longitudinal black stripe on T2 instead of two black spots. One female specimen collected on 20–30 November 2014 from Vinh Phuc Province has entirely yellow T2–T4, without black spots. Black marks on mesoscutum of one female specimen collected on 20–30 April 2021 from Vinh Phuc Province extends medially to anterior margin of mesoscutum (Fig. 7C). Otherwise, they agree with the original description of Sheng et al. (2013).

Palpostilpnus tamasek Reshchikov, Santos, Liu, Barthélémy, 2019: 32.
Holotype: ♀, SINGAPORE, Nee Soon Swamp Forest (LKCNHM).
Diagnosis. Reddish body with black markings; occipital carina complete; postero-ocellar distance 2.0–2.4× ocular-ocellar distance; mesoscutum elongate, anteriorly protruding above pronotum; propodeum without carinae or with short stub of lateromedian longitudinal carina posteriorly.
Material examined. 1♂ (IEBR), VIETNAM, Tuyen Quang Province, Na Hang, Son Phu, 22°17’32”N 105°28’19”E, 573 m a.s.l., 1–10 July 2017, Malaise trap, Khuat D.L. coll.
Distribution. Previously known from Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore (Reshchikov et al. 2019). It is the first record of this species from Vietnam.
Remarks. In comparison with the holotype and male paratype from Singapore, the Vietnamese specimen has shorter postero-ocellar distance (2.0× ocular-ocellar distance vs. 2.4×), differences in coloration of pronotum (reddish vs. black) and mesopleuron (mainly black vs. mainly reddish). Otherwise, it agrees with the original description of Reshchikov et al. (2019).

Centroptella pontica: Kluge, Godunko & Svitok 2020: 93.
Material examined. Photos of paratypes provided by R. Godunko and P. Sroka.
Distribution. Turkey.
Comments. Centroptella pontica is known as larvae only. Judging by hypodermal coloration of mature male larva, abdomen of male imago should have extensive reddish coloration on abdominal terga II–III and V–VI (Fig. 418). Judging by subimaginal legs visible through cuticle of mature female larva, tarsus of middle and hind legs has 1 apical spine on initial 3rd tarsomere (next after 1st+2nd tarsomere) (Fig. 415); in female—also with 1 apical spine (on tarsomere next after 2nd tarsomere (Fig. 414). A retained fragment of subimaginal gonostylus inside larval protogonostylus (Fig. 420) testifies that subimaginal gonostyli are folded in the « Crassolus - type » pose [see Crassolus (5)].

Bungona (Chopralla) bifida Shi & Tong 2019: 578 (larva);
Centroptella bifida: Kluge, Godunko & Svitok 2020: 92.
Distribution. China.
Comments. Centroptella bifida is known as larvae only. According to the original description, its larvae differ from others as «submarginal setae on labrum are forked apically» (Shi & Tong 2019: 578, 584, fig. 37). Actually, these setae are bifurcate in some other species as well, particularly in C. ingridae (Fig. 395), which in the same paper by Shi & Tong (2019) was redescribed under the name « Bungona (Chopralla) liebenauae » and told to have «labrum surface with simple submarginal setae» (Shi & Tong 2019: 584).
Form of right prostheca (pressed to kinetodontium and lacking long process) suggests that C. bifida belongs either to Chopralla, or to Crassolus. Male larvae used for the original description, are not mature enough to have subimaginal gonostyli, so their pose is unknown (Xiaoli Tong, personal communication). Judging by the presence of denticles on posterior margins of abdominal terga II–X and the presence of setal rows (j) on abdominal sterna III–VI (Shi & Tong 2019: 578), C. bifida probably belongs to Crassolus.
Judging by the picture provided by Xiaoli Tong (Fig. 421), hypodermal coloration of mature male larva is limited by reddish stripes on posterior margins of abdominal terga, that clearly separates this species from such representatives of Crassolus, as C. ludmilae, C. pontica, C. inzingae and C. saxophila, whose males have more extensive hypodermal coloration on abdominal terga.

Material examined. Central NEPAL, Helambu Area, 27°55’N 83°30’E, Gohare Khola opposite to village Mahenkai, about 500 m from falling to Melamchi River, 4.III.2007, coll. M. Chertoprud: 1 male larva of penultimate instar (other specimens in Chertoprud’s collection).
Distribution. Nepal.
Comments. Characters of this larva are reported in the Table 3 and shown on the Figs 422–428). Pose of developing subimaginal gonostyli is unknown; judging by the presence of denticles on posterior margins of abdominal terga II–X and the presence of setal rows on abdominal sterna III–VI, this species probably belongs to Crassolus.

Myrmozercon eidmanni

description: Myrmozercon eidmanni (Sellnick, 1941)
Myrmonyssus eidmanni Sellnick, 1941: 221.
Diagnosis. Body length 561; dorsal shield truncate posteriorly, with approximately 34 pairs of setae; one pair of anterior setae (j1) and posterior body setae longer than other body setae. Sternal shield an inverted U-shape; setae st4 absent. Anal shield with anterolateral extensions. Peritreme extending to mid-coxa II. Legs very short, leg I less than half length of body. Host: Crematogaster impressa Emery.
Remarks. The short legs and anal shield with anterolateral extensions shows this species is a member of Myrmozercon s. s., therefore we predict it will also have the leg and palp setal absences consistent within the group. The holotrichous dorsal shield, presence of a seta on coxa IV and peritremes extending to mid-coxa II will take this species to couplet 6 in the key. In contrast to M. clarus and M. spinosus, Myrmozercon eidmanni has long setae j1 and a smooth genital shield.

Myrmonyssus liguricus Vitzthum, 1930: 90.
Diagnosis. Body length 540–580; dorsal shield truncate posteriorly, with approximately 31 pairs of setae; anterior pair (j1) of setae and posterior body setae longer than other body setae. Sternal shield an inverted U-shape; setae st4 absent. Genital shield with some lineate reticulation anterolaterally. Anal shield with short anterolateral extensions. Peritreme extending to mid-coxa II. Chelicerae with fixed digit obsolete. Legs short, leg I about half length of body. Host: Crematogaster scutellaris (Olivier).
Remarks. This species is most similar to M. tauricus and is most easily distinguished by the fixed cheliceral digit (obsolete in M. liguricus, slightly reduced in M. tauricus) and the form of the sternal shield (not eroded between st1-st 1 in M. liguricus, eroded between st1-st 1 in M. tauricus).

Diagnosis. Body length 418–429; dorsal shield truncate posteriorly, with approximately 31 pairs of setae; anterior pair (j1) of setae and posterior body setae longer than other body setae. Sternal shield an inverted U-shape. Host: Crematogaster impressa Emery.
Remarks. Sellnick (1941) described this species as being very similar to M. eidmanni, so we presume it has an anal shield with anterolateral extensions, a peritreme extending to mid-coxa II, and very short legs. It is distinguished by its size (length 418–429 compared to 561 for M. eidmanni) and having fewer long posterior dorsal setae. Both species occur on the same host, Crematogaster impressa.

Myrmonyssus acuminatus Berlese, 1903: 18.
Myrmonyssus acuminatus.— Berlese, 1904: 441.
Diagnosis. Body length 560; dorsal shield truncate posteriorly, with approximately 35 pairs of dorsal setae; setae j6 shorter than other mid-dorsal setae, placed close together. Sternal shield entire, not eroded. Anal shield longer than wide. Peritreme reaching level anterior margin of coxa II. Legs moderately short, but legs I longest, being approximately 2/3 length of the body. Host: Messor capitatus (Latreille).
Remarks. This species is similar to M. michaeli and M. iranicus but can be separated by the short, closely-set mid-dorsal setae j 6 in M. acuminatus (j6 as long as other dorsal setae, and set as far apart as j 5 in the other two species). The host genus of all three species is Messor.

Myrmonyssus aequalis Banks, 1916: 227.
Diagnosis. Body length 850; dorsal shield not truncate, highly hypertrichous. Legs long, legs I about as long as body. Host: Iridomyrmex gracilis (Lowne).
Remarks. Little is discernable from the original description, but M. scutellatus and M. crinitis share the features of dorsal hypotrichy and long legs. Walter (2003) separated M. aequalis and M. scutellatus on differences in body size, the length of the dorsal setae, and the shape of the female genital shield. Males of M. aequalis also have the unique feature within Myrmozercon of ventral spurs on the femur, genu and tibia of leg II. The host genus of M. aequalis and M. scutellatus is Iridomyrmex. Myrmozercon crinitis was collected from Pheidole, and differs in the shape of the idiosoma (tapering in M. crinitis, rounded in M. aequalis and M. scutellatus) and by lacking spurs on leg II of the male.

Sternal shield entire, not eroded; setae st4 present. Genital shield with two pairs of setae. Anal shield small, indistinct. Peritreme short, reaching anterior margin of coxa III. Legs long, legs I about as long as body. Host: Camponotus aethiops (Latreille).
Remarks. This species is unique in having two pairs of setae on the genital shield (M. eidmanni is shown with two pairs of structures, but there is only one pair of setae).

Myrmonyssus diplogenius. — Berlese, 1904: 438.
Diagnosis. Body length 650; dorsal shield truncate posteriorly, bearing approximately 37 pairs of dorsal setae. Sternal shield subrectangular, not eroded, yet bearing setae st2 only; setae st1 and st 3 in soft cuticle; setae st4 present. Anus terminal, anal shield small, bearing post-anal seta only. Peritreme not extending further than anterior margin of coxa III. Legs moderately short, legs I about two thirds length of body; legs I subequal in length with legs IV, both longer than legs II–III. Chelicerae with fixed digit slender, about two thirds length of movable digit. Host: Camponotus aethiops (Latreille).
Remarks. Berlese (1903) illustrated the dorsum and venter of M. diplogenius and later (Berlese, 1904) illustrated the palp, epistome, anus and chelicera of this species. The sternal shield, bearing only setae st2, is unusual and unique in Myrmozercon and requires confirmation.

description: Myrmozercon titan (Berlese, 1902)
Myrmonyssus titan Berlese, 1902: 171.
Diagnosis. Body length 1320. Legs long, legs I about three quarters length of body, slightly longer than legs IV. Host: unknown.
Remarks. This species was provided with a rudimentary description by Berlese (1902), but unlike the other species he described, it received no further detailed examination. From photographs and measurements of the type specimen provided by Dr Roberto Nannelli (slide 170/5), if this is a species of Myrmozercon, then it is a member Myrmozercon sensu lato because of its large legs. Myrmozercon titan is a very large species (body length 1320) and no other species of Myrmozercon exceeds 1 mm. No more is discernible from the photographs beyond these basic features.

(Figs. 3, 36–38)
Etymology. The specific epithet reflects that the species has been found exclusively in corals of Polyphyllia talpina. For the purposes of nomenclature, it is herewith declared (under ICZN 1999 Article 26) as not to be treated as a Greek, Latin or latinized word; thus, the spelling presented here is to remain unchanged.
Type material. Holotype female (RMNH 102712), found in the mushroom coral Polyphyllia talpina; Palau, NE of Ngeremdiu, Lighthouse Reef, forereef, 07°16′30″N 134°27′25″E.
Paratypes. Palau. Type locality (102713*/1sn: f+e 2sh: m in same coral as holotype, 102714/4sn: 1m &3f+e); NE of Ngeremdiu, Lighthouse Reef, forereef, 07°16′14″N 134° 27′21″E (RMNH 102715 /3sn: 2m &1f+e); do., 07°16′47″N 134°27′50″E (RMNH 102716 /2sn: m&f+e).

Diagnosis. Among the Leptoconchus species with reduced and variable morphological characters and associated with fungiid corals, L. intalpina sp. nov. is differentiated by a unique combination of nucleotides in the Cytochrome Oxidase I barcoding sequence (GB: EU215845– EU215847, EU215860), as indicated by underlined letters in Fig. 48.
Shell. Holotype female (Figs. 36, 37) H 16.2 mm, W 29.6 mm (largest female); columellar callus covering about half surface of last whorl. In shells of both sexes, V-shaped basal segment of outer lip with short part on columellar side and longer part on palatal side. Largest male shell (Fig. 38), with slightly protruding columellar shield, measures H 13.9 mm, W 16.0 mm. Apical part of female shell in line with apertural edge or slightly below (Fig. 36), apex of male shell can protrude slightly above apertural edge (Fig. 38).
Habitat. The snails and their egg capsules were found at 5–14 m depth, exclusively with the mushroom coral species Polyphyllia talpina (Lamarck, 1801). The siphon pores are located on the upper side of the corals.
Distribution. The range of Leptoconchus intalpina extends from Palau to Indonesia.

Types. Holotype ♂ (TARI). CHINA. Hainan: Jianfengling (尖峰嶺), 10.V.2015. Paratypes. 4♂♂ (TARI), same data as holotype; 1♂ (TARI), Tiaoloshan (吊羅山), 4.V.2015; 2♂♂ (NMPC), Jianfengling (尖峰嶺), Tiachi (天池) Lake env., 18°44’40”N 108°50’41”E, 950 m, 9–11.V.2011, leg. M. Fikáček, V. Kubeček, & L. Li.
Description. Length 5.6–5.7 mm, width 2.2–2.3 mm. General color (Figs 13 H– 13I) metallic blue; antennae blackish brown except three basal tarsomeres; mouth parts and legs yellow, but apex of tibia, and tarsi of front legs, tarsomeres III–V of middle and hind legs darker. Vertex with reticulate microsculpture. Antenna filiform in males (Fig. 16A), apices of antennomeres III–IX wider, length ratios of antennomeres I–XI 1.0: 0.2: 0.8: 1.1: 1.1: 1.0: 1.1: 1.0: 1.0: 0.9: 1.0, length to width ratios of antennomeres I–XI 3.2: 1.1: 4.0: 5.1: 5.4: 4.5: 4.6: 4.2: 4.5: 4.0: 5.4. Pronotum transverse, 1.3x wider than long, disc with reticulate microsculpture, dense, coarse punctures, and one pair of lateral depressions; lateral margin basally narrowed; apical and basal margins subtruncate. Elytra elongate and parallel-sided, 1.8x longer than wide; disc with reticulate microsculpture, dense, coarse punctures, arranged into longitudinal rows, and distinct longitudinal ridges between longitudinal rows of punctures. Tarsomeres I of front legs swollen in males, widened at basal 1/3 (Fig. 16E). Penis (Figs 16 B–16D) extremely slender, 11.0x longer than wide; apex narrowly rounded, with medial, shallow, narrow notch; tectum elongate from apical 1/10 to basal 1/3, narrower apically; almost straight in lateral view, moderately curved near base; triangular sclerites small; internal sac with one narrow, short endophallic sclerite complex, 0.5x as long as penis, composed of two sclerites, apical piece much shorter (0.5x) than apical piece, dorsal sclerite well developed but shorter than apical piece, apex acute in lateral view; ventral sclerites present.
Female unknown.
Diagnosis. Males of Theopea hainanensis sp. nov. are similar to those of T. laosensis sp. nov. based on the symmetrical penis, shorter basal piece, and presence of ventral sclerites. The former can be distinquished by the symmetrical sides of apical piece (Figs 16 B–16D) (asymmetrical and twisted apical piece in T. laosensis sp. nov. (Figs 18 C–18F)).
Etymology. The new species is named for the type locality.
Food plants. Unknown.
Distribution. China: Hainan.

Specimens examined. 20 specimens from the type locality of E. brazilli: Instituto de Biociências, Universidade de São Paulo on Hibiscus sp., collected in April, 2013; paratype female from Mercedes, Texas, USA, on corn leaf, collected in May, 25, 1955.
An evaluation of the measurements provided in the literature for E. mesembrinus (Dean, 1957; Abou-Setta et al., 1991), E. ho (De Leon, 1965; Moraes & McMurtry, 1983) and E. brazilli (El-Banhawy, 1975), as well as an examination of a paratype of E. mesembrinus and additional specimens of the same species collected in Florida, of the holotype of E. ho and specimens of E. brazilli collected in its type locality, showed that the latter two species are junior synonyms of E. mesembrinus.
The length and width of the dorsal shield shown in the original description of E. brazilli are considerably larger than the measurements obtained in this study for the paratypes and for females collected in the type locality of the species. Probably the measurements given in the original description refer to the length and width of the idiosoma. Other characteristics contained in the original description and observed in specimens examined in this study are very similar.

Specimens examined. 20 specimens from the type locality: Alajuela, Santiago, Chile on Prunus persica, collected in February, 2013.
The characteristics of the females collected in this study are very close to those of the holotype except for the longer r3 and R1. Denmark et al. (1999) considered this species to be a senior synonym of Euseius vivax (Chant & Baker). In this paper, these are considered distinct species, as explained under E. vivax. Euseius fructicolus is most similar to Euseius stipulatus (Athias-Henriot) from which it is distinguished by the shape and size of the spermatheca as mentioned later in this paper in the key to species.

This species seems to have in North America an ecological an ecological importance similar to that of E. concordis in South America, in terms of its wide distribution (Demite et al., 2015), its abundance, and its wide range of host plants. As cited for E. concordis, there are few reports of the occurrence of E. hibisci outside the American continent and Caribbean islands, as summarised by Demite et al. (2015). These reports need to be confirmed, given the possibility of misidentifications. This species was not collected in this study, but there are several publications about the morphology of E. hibisci in the literature (Schuster & Pritchard, 1963; McMurtry et al., 1985; Congdon & McMurtry, 1986; Aponte & McMurtry, 1997).
This species is most similar to E. tularensis, from which it is distinguished mostly by the insertion of r3 (in the unsclerotised cuticle in E. hibisci and usually in the dorsal shield in E. tularensis) and the length of the peritreme (extending up to the level of j 3 in E. hibisci and at most to the level of z 2 in E. tularensis).
