description: Achoma brachiatum Novis & Visnovsky, gen. et sp. nov. (Figs 4A–C)
Cellulae sphaericae vel ellipsoideae, 4.6–7.7 µm longae, 3.5–7.3 µm latae. Paries cellularis nullus. Chloroplastus parietalis, cupulatus, lobis incisurisque instructus, pyrenoide unica in forma reticulata e intrusionibus thylacoidium composita in vagina amylacea segmentata includenti continens. Autosporis 2–4–8 per sporangium regenerans. Zoosporae nudae biflagellatae visae, sed sporangia non visa.
Type:— NEW ZEALAND: Westland: Mt Philistine, 1400 m, preserved cultured specimen from sample collected 30 November 2007, CHR610487.
Cells single, spherical to ellipsoidal, 4.6–7.7 µm long, 3.5–7.3 µm wide. Cell wall absent (Fig. 4B). Chloroplast parietal, cup-shaped, with lobes and incisions, containing single pyrenoid (Fig. 4A) with reticulate pattern of thylakoid intrusions, surrounded by segmented starch sheath (Figs 4B, C). Reproduction by autospores, 2–4–8 per sporangium. Naked biflagellate zoospores observed, but sporangia not seen.
Habitat:— Alpine herbfield soil.
Distribution:— New Zealand.
Etymology:— “Without a bulwark” (wall), “branched” (referring to shape of intruding thylakoids in pyrenoid matrix).
Observations:— Vegetative cells often resemble chlamydomonad cells, with cup-shaped chloroplast and obvious polarity, but lack flagella (Fig. 4A). In this feature the cells resemble Chloronomala cuprecola (Groover & Bold 1969) in the Gloeodendrales (sensu Ettl & Gärtner 1995), but the latter forms palmelloid colonies. Cystomonas (Ettl & Gärtner 1987) also resembles chlamydomonad cells, but retains a papilla, and other chlorococcaleans have different chloroplast and/or cell shapes, The rbc L phylogeny (Fig. 9) rules out its placement in any of the chlamydomonad clades known to date. Pyrenoid structure, with branched/reticulate thylakoids inside the matrix, is reminiscent of the structure found in pyrenoids of Hamakko caudatus Nakada & Nozaki 2009. Although no robust splits separate these two species in our rbc L phylogeny, there is also no indication that the two species are close relatives, and relationships in this part of the tree were not resolved. Attempts to amplify the 18S rDNA gene from Achoma were unsuccessful; this could provide more information on the phylogenetic position of the genus.
Cultures:— LCR-CG11.

Drouetia

description: Subgenus Drouetia Gude, 1911
Original description. Shell hyaline, very finely striated, and covered with excessively fine spirals, imperforate, the reflexed columella slightly twisted.
Type species. Helix atlantica, Morelet & Drouët, 1857, from the Azores [São Miguel Island (Riedel 1964)].
Remarks. Gude (1911) proposed Drouetia as a monotypic genus for the endemic Helix atlantica, which according to Morelet (1860) occurred in most islands of the Azores. Zilch (1959) relegated the name to subgeneric status, and since then it has been generally accepted in this category. After Riedel’s (1964) anatomical research, several new species of Drouetia have been recognized (Martins 1981, 1989) and the group was recorded in all Azorean islands (Martins et al. 1989, 1990).

Without seeing the specimen, and with no explanatory comment, Bhatti (1999) listed this species in the genus Streothrips. It remains known from a single male in the United States National Museum of Natural History, Beltsville, Maryland (Fig. 15). This was collected from unidentified Asteraceae flowers in Panama in March, 1934, and is strongly bicoloured, in contrast to the uniformly brown males of romanruizi. Unfortunately, the terminal abdominal segments are slightly telescoped into each other, and the chaetotaxy of tergite IX is thus difficult to observe and illustrate, although it appears to be similar to that of romanruizi (Fig. 19). The fore wing colour pattern resembles that of the new species described below from southern Brazil.

Chlorplastus viridis, cupulatus, parietalis, pyrenoidibus 1–2 per thylacoides valde circulariter flexuosae penetratis, quaeque pyrenoglobulis circumdatae. Autosporis 2–4 per sporangium regenerans. Variochloris sita per analysem per sequentias geneticas rbcL in clado valde confirmato conjunctim speciebus alpinis Stichococci novae-zelandiae, Raphidonemtae nivali ex USA atque speciebus duabus “Chlorellae”.
Type:— NEW ZEALAND: Westland: Mt Philistine, 1400 m, preserved cultured specimen from sample collected 30 November 2007, CHR610489.
Cells variable in shape, spherical to ellipsoidal to pyriform, 6.2–9.2 µm long, 4.6–8.5 µm wide, with granular cytoplasm, single or in groups (Fig. 5A, B). Chloroplast green, cup-shaped, parietal, with 1–2 pyrenoids, penetrated by looped thylakoids, each surrounded by pyrenoglobuli (Figs 5E, F). Reproduction by autospores, 2–4 per sporangium (Fig. 5C). Analysis based on rbc L gene sequences placed Variochloris in a robustly supported clade with alpine species of Stichococcus from New Zealand, Raphidonema nivale Lagerheim from USA, and two “ Chlorella ” species (Fig. 9). The same phylogenetic position was established with 18S rDNA sequences according to the Bayesian analysis, but no close matches were found with strains previously sequenced.
Habitat:— Alpine herbfield soil.
Distribution:— New Zealand.
Etymology:— Referring to variable shape and presence of pyrenoglobuli.
Observations:— Variochloris shares morphological features with Chlorella, but this generic name has priority in the Chlorellales (with the type species Chlorella vulgaris Beijerinck 1890). Pyrenoglobuli are known from taxa in other clades, such as Trebouxia (Tarhanen et al. 2000), and Heveochlorella hainangensis Zhang et al. (2008) in the Watanabea clade. Thylakoid patterns within the pyrenoid matrix in these taxa are also similar. The species of Stichococcus in the same clade as Variochloris do not have pyrenoids, and ultrastructure of this feature in Chlorella ellipsoidea Gerneck 1907 and C. saccharophila (Krüger) Migula 1907 appears to be unknown. The association of coccoid and non-coccoid species in this clade has been noted previously (Novis et al. 2008), and these new results confirm the polyphyly of trebouxiophycean strains referred to Stichococcus.
Cultures:— LCR-CG2.

Type:— NEW ZEALAND: Westland: Mt Philistine, 1400 m, preserved cultured specimen from sample collected 30 November 2007, CHR610490.
Young cells cylindrical–ellipsoidal, 6.2–7.7 µm long, 3.1–4.6 µm wide, becoming ellipsoidal to spherical with age, up to 8.5 µm wide, singly or in groups, containing 3–numerous vesicles in cytoplasm (thought to contain lipid; Fig. 5A). Cell wall thin and smooth. Chloroplast green, parietal, cup-shaped, with single pyrenoid surrounded by highly segmented starch sheath (Fig. 5B). Pyrenoid matrix penetrated by several thylakoids, but pattern indistinct. Reproduction by autospores, 2–4 per sporangium. Sequence data for the 18S rDNA gene placed E. philistinensis robustly in a clade of Elliptochloris species, but separated from others by a moderately long branch emerging at the first node (Fig. 8).
Habitat:— Alpine herbfield soil.
Distribution:— New Zealand.
Etymology:— Referring to Mt Philistine, the site of collection.
Observations:— Elliptochloris represents a well-defined genus in the Trebouxiophyceae. The pyrenoid of E. marina Letsch et al. 2009 is described as a “thylakoid free region” in the chloroplast, and appears similar to our observations. One other species, E. subsphaerica (Reisigl) Ettl & Gärtner (1995) has a pyrenoid, but this is clearly distinguished from E. philistinensis by young cells that are frequently curved, and by molecular data (Fig. 8).
Cultures:— LCR-CG5.

Mangabea barbiger Weirauch, 2008: 394.
Distribution. Currently only known from the holotype collected at Parc National Ranomafana in Fianarantsoa, Madagascar, via Malaise trap at a forest edge at fairly high elevation (1,130 m, 21.2261°S, 47.3698°E), and from one male specimen collected from Province Fianarantsoa, Manombo Special Reserve camp site 32 km SSE of Farafangana via Malaise trap in lowland rainforest (36 m, 23.0218°S, 47.720°E). Deposited at the California Academy of Sciences, UCR_ENT 00005202 and UCR_ENT 00127634.
Discussion. In our analysis, Stenorhamphus orientalis and S. barbiger, new combination, are identified as sister taxa by several synapomorphies, including wing venation and head shape. Stenorhamphus barbiger differs from S. orientalis by the fascicle of stout setae on the anterior area of the gena (two pairs of setae in S. orientalis) and the posterior pronotal lobe being slightly longer than the anterior. Stenorhamphus orientalis is found in NE Madagascar (Villiers, 1970), while S. barbiger is found in SE Madagascar (Weirauch, 2008). Though S. troglodytes is also found in Madagascar, it was collected along the eastern side of the country in a cave and appears to have diverged significantly from S. barbiger and S. orientalis.

description: Key to the species of Onomeris
The pill millipede fauna of America is still relatively little known. Careful examination of the telopods of any Glomerida specimen found in America is therefore necessary to identify the species. For example, an undescribed genus co-occurs with O. sinuata and has similar colouration and size. Additional undescribed Glomerida species probably occur in the eastern United States.

description: Stenorhamphus mixtus (Putshkov & Popov, 1995), new combination
Collarhamphus mixtus Putshkov & Popov, 1995.
Holotype. Male, from Baltic amber, Coll. Geological- Paleontological Institute and Museum, University of Hamburg; Typ.Kat.Nr.3602. Locality used in Fig. 8 based on approximation of Baltic amber collection sites.
Discussion. Stenorhamphus mixtus was described as a fossil in the genus Collarhamphus due to apparently sharing similarities with all three extant Collartidini genera. As the three genera of Collartidini share many similarities, distinguishing between them can be extremely difficult. However, our morphological analyses placed Collarhamphus within the Mangabea + Stenorhamphus clade. Though not within Emesinae, previously described coleopteran Baltic amber fossils have been placed within extant genera (Alekseev, 2013). We feel confident in synonymising Collarhamphus with Stenorhamphus. This further emphasises the age of this group to be between 36 to 54 million years old (Wolfe et al., 2009) and that little morphological change appears to have occurred during this period.

Stenoramphus nubifera: Elkins, 1962: 423.

Distribution. This species is only known from Peradeniya in Sri Lanka, (approximately 7.26°N, 80.59°E). Both the holotype and the paratype are deposited at British Museum of Natural History. No data is given on how it was collected.
Discussion. Guithera nubifera was described by Distant (1906), based on the holotype and one paratype. Elkins (1962) recognised that it did not belong in Guithera and erected the new genus Stenorhamphus based on examination of the female paratype. We have examined the holotype that is in poor condition.

Reference: Novis et al. 2008: 353–354, Fig 3A–I.
Observations:— Previously, only data for rbc L were available for this species from Mt Philistine. The 18S data presented here show that Pseudococcomyxa simplex from Mt Philistine is a close relative of P. simplex UTEX 274 (Fig. 8). Both of these strains belong to a clade that includes species of Coccomyxa as well as Paradoxia spp. This clade is distinct from a second clade comprising other species of Coccomyxa; clearly this genus is polyphyletic and requires revision. Interestingly, the oblique division plane characteristic of Pseudococcomyxa (Broady 1987, Novis et al. 2008) is also evident in Paradoxia multiseta Svirenko 1928 during vegetative division (Hegewald & Reymond 1987). Some species currently regarded as Coccomyxa, such as C. confluens (Kützing) Fott 1974, appear to share this feature (Ettl & Gärtner 1995), although how it is distributed phylogenetically is presently unclear. It may be a morphological feature that can be used to separate the two clades.
