(UASB).
Distribution. India (Assam, Arunachal Pradesh), Myanmar.
Remark: The analyzed specimens conforms to Carvalho & Gross (1979) redescription of O. pompeus by the even dark second antennal segment and medial stripe of scutellum but differ by the slightly concave anterior margin of corial triangular black area, a character state assumed diagnostic of O. coloratus Zheng & Liu, 1992. The validity of this poorly known species closely related to O. pompeus should be analyzed more in more detail.

Female (Fig. 1). Sternum 7 membranous, two dark sclerites belonging to inner genitalia can be seen by transparency. Sternum 8 with large trapezoidal, darkly sclerotized subgenital plate covering the entire length; posterior margin slightly concave, overlapping the anterior margin of sternum 9. Paired vaginal lobes are brown and triangular, located at the posterolateral corner of the subgenital plate. Sternum 9 slightly extended anteromedially, paraproct short triangular.
Material examined. 1 male (COI NO. C37) and 1 female (COI NO. C38) (HIST), China: Guangxi, Guilin City, Xing’an County, Tongren Village, Maoershan National Natural Reserve, Jiuniutang, 25°52'16" N, 110°25'1" E, 1961–2000 m, 2020. VI.22, Mo RR, Lai Y et al.; 1 female (HIST), same data as above, 2020. VI.21.
Distribution. China (Guangxi).
Remarks. This species is a member of the Indonemoura fujianensis complex, according to the male genital characters (Mo et al. 2020j; Sivec & Stark 2010b). The hitherto unknown female was associated with the male by molecular study. The female has a large trapezoidal subgenital plate which is a common shape in the genus, and it cannot be distinguished from some congeners with certainty.

Distribution. China (Guangdong, Guangxi and Zhejiang).
Remarks. This species was originally described from Longwangshan Mountain located in Zhejiang Province by Yang & Yang (1998) and assigned to the genus Acroneuria Pictet, 1841. Later, Du et al. (2001) moved it to Sinacroneuria. In the present study, this species is recorded from Guangdong and Guangxi for the first time. Our male specimens agree well with the type material (Yang & Yang 1998). We provided the color illustrations (Figs. 14–15) of head pattern, terminalia and fully extruded aedeagus to facilitate the identifying of this species.

Supplementary description. Head pale, with a dark brown subtriangular spot on frons and a dark brown subrectangular interocellar patch. Tergum 7 posteromedially with a small, oval, medial patch of sensilla basiconica. Tergum 8 with large, laterally lobed semicircular posteromedial sclerotized portion, bearing dense sensilla basiconica. Tergum 9 medially lightly sclerotized, but with large patch of sensilla basiconica on a hump, posterior edge with darkly sclerotized portion. Hemitergal processes of tergum 10 flat and triangular in lateral view. Aedeagus (Fig. 22): the everted aedeagus is hook-shaped, mostly membranous, with a blunt tip; basal sclerite well developed. Aedeagal tube ventrally with a pair of small, indistinct subapical lobes, and a pair of ventrolateral lobes in the apical part, the latter are armed with small triangular spines; lateral surface of apical half covered with a small patch of small spines. Aedeagal sac strongly curved dorsally, forming an open loop; apical half fully armed with triangular spines gradually lessen towards the apex, but apical spines denser except for bare basal half of the ventral surface.
Material examined. 8 males (HIST), China: Guangxi, Guilin City, Multinational Autonomous County of Longsheng, Huaping National Nature Reserve, Cujiang Station, 25°36'16" N, 109°54'21" E, 887 m, 2020.VI.16, light trap, Mo RR, Lai Y et al.
Remarks. This species was originally described from Doi Inthanon National Park of Chiang Mai City, northern Thailand by Stark & Sivec (2005). Eight male specimens of this species from Guangxi of southern China agree well a posteromedial patch of sensilla basiconica, and aedeagal tube subapically with a pair of indistinct small ventral lobes and laterally covered with a small subapical patch of tiny spines (compare Figs. 21–22 with fig. 1–4 in Stark & Sivec 2005), while in the type specimens, the spines of spiny lobes slightly extended to dorsal surface. These differences can be regarded as intraspecific variation. We provide additional color illustrations (Figs. 21–22) for aiding the recognition of this species.

Supplementary description. Tergum 6 bears a few posterior sensilla basiconica, further terga agree with the original description (Fig. 25c, 26a). Aedeagus (Figs. 26b–26e) mostly membranous. Aedeagal tube (Figs. 26b–26c) nearly straight, only dorsal surface sclerotized. Aedeagal sac (Figs. 26b–26e) slightly longer than tube and strongly curved ventrally, and in our only specimen it forms a loop looking like a lowercase “b”; dorsal surface of basal half irregularly covered with scattered brown spines, but its ventral surface bare; near sac apex lateral spines become large, dark with a broad base and hooked apex, occurring in two groups, one of 3–4, the more distal of 2; apex of sac with a H-shaped, dark uneverted sclerite (Fig. 26e), dorsal surface covered in a field of smaller spinules.
Material examined. 1 male (HIST), China: Guangxi, Laibin City, Jinxiu Yao Autonomous County, Dayaoshan National Natural Reserve, Yinshan Park, 24°10'07" N, 110°14'38" E, 1129 m, 2020.VI.11, light trap, Mo RR, Lai Y et al.
Distribution. China (Guangxi and Guizhou).
Remarks. This species was originally described from Fanjing Mountain of Guizhou Province by Yang and Yang (1992). However, the aedeagal sac of the holotype was not everted and described. Other aspects from the original description agree well with the Guangxi specimen (compare Figs. 25–26 with fig. 2 in Yang & Yang 1992). The only difference is that our male specimen has a few sensilla basiconica on tergum 6 posteromedially, which are easy to overlook. This species is a member of the Neoperla montivaga group, sinensis species subgroup as defined by Li & Yan (2021), having a pair of apical sclerites of aedeagal sac. The recently described Neoperla annulatispina Mo, Li & Wang, 2021 from Guangdong Province also fit the definition of this subgroup and can be included. Neoperla fanjingshana is first recorded from Guangxi in the present study.

Material examined. 5 males (HIST), China: Guangxi, Fangchenggang City, Shangsi County, Shiwandashan National Forest Park, 21°50'34" N, 107°51'48" E, 365 m, 2015.III.28, light trap, Kontschán J, Li JY, Li S, Li WH, Murányi D, Wang GQ.
Distribution. China (Guangxi).
Remarks. This species was originally described from Fulong Town of Fangchenggang City, Guangxi by Du & Sivec (2004) and is a member of the Neoperla sinensis species subgroup (Li & Yan 2021). The five male specimens of this species from Shiwandashan National Forest Park in the same city, agree well with the original description and illustration (see fig. 2 in Du & Sivec 2004). It seems to be restricted to the Shiwandashan Mountains. We present herein the detailed color illustration (Fig. 27) for a better recognition of this species.

Distribution. China (Fujian, Guangxi and Henan).
Remarks. This species was originally described from Henan Province by Li et al. (2011b), and subsequently recorded from Fujian Province by Qin et al. (2013). In the present study, we add Guangxi as the third province of distribution for this species. Our male specimens agree well with the figures provided by Li et al. (2011b) (see figs. 1–5) and Qin et al. (2013) (see fig. 3). Female association was confirmed by molecular study. In addition, the female and eggs of this species are described for the first time. We provide additional illustrations (Figs. 28–30) for both sexes and eggs to aid in the recognition of this relatively widespread Chinese species.

Distribution. China (Fujian and Guangxi).
Remarks. The species was described from Wuyishan Mountain of Fujian Province (Li et al. 2013b; Qin et al. 2013), and hitherto it was known only from the type locality. The present two male specimens agree well with the type materials and further topotypes. The specific characters are shown on Fig. 33: characteristic head pattern, strongly sclerotized tube, relatively short sac with distinct, strong apical spines and subapical field of fine spines. These are the first reports from Guangxi.

Distribution. China (Fujian, Guangxi and Zhejiang).
Remarks. This species was originally described from Tianmushan Mountain, a famous Mountain of Zhejiang Province (Li et al. 2013a). In the same year, it was reported from Wuyishan Mountain of Fujian Province by Qin et al. (2013). This species is newly recorded for Guangxi in the present study. Our male specimens agree well with the figures on Zhejiang and Fujian specimens (see figs. 8–9 in Li et al. 2013a and fig. 8 in Qin et al. 2013). We provide color photographs of a male head, terminalia, and fully extruded aedeagus (Fig. 34), first description of the female (Fig. 35) and egg (Fig. 36) to improve identifications in the future. The female is tentatively associated through collection with males, and having similar head and pronotum pattern.

description: Anatinae, aff. Anas crecca carolinensis / Spatula discors
Material. CM 34027, l carpometacarpus: proximal end lacking most of the alular metacarpal.
Description. Smaller in size than all but the smallest group of anatids (Table 1). Larger than Oxyura jamaicensis and with a deeper fossa distal to the pisiform process and the carpal trochlea less narrow and blade-like. Larger than Bucephala albeola, with the shaft of the major metacarpal wider and with a different configuration of rugosities in the supratrochlear fossa. Surface area of the supratrochlear fossa generally greater than, and the fossa generally wider distally than, in Spatula discors. Surface area of supratrochlear fossa greater than in A. c. carolinensis. Shaft depth across the major and minor metacarpals greater than observed in the modern comparative taxa.
Measurements. See Table 1.
Remarks. Fragmentary anatine postcranial bones can be undiagnosable to species. This particular bone was previously attributed to A. c. carolinensis by Brodkorb & Mourer-Chauviré (1984), and I agree that that is the likely identification. However, the bone differs in at least minor ways from all comparative skeletons and I cannot exclude the possibility that it should be referred to S. discors or an extinct species.

description: Bonasa umbellus
Material. USNM PAL 641979, l tarsometatarsus: shaft lacking the trochleae and proximal articular surfaces, collected by Trent Spielman, probably on October 2, 1996 (Fig. 1I).
USNM PAL 769092, l tarsometatarsus: shaft lacking most of the plantar surface, collected by Trent Spielman in the 1990s.
Description. All of the fossils of Tetraoninae from Cumberland Bone Cave fall within or close to the size range of modern B. umbellus. Among New World Tetraoninae, Bonasa umbellus is much larger than Lagopus leucura but considerably smaller than all others except Falcipennis canadensis, Lagopus lagopus, and L. muta. Bonasa differs from Lagopus and Falcipennis in having a proportionately long and slender tarsometatarsus. The two tarsometatarsi listed above are referable to B. umbellus on that basis. Note that USNM PAL 641979 appears to be from a full adult and is large compared with some B. umbellus skeletons, but is a good match for USNM BIRDS 641459, a male from Alberta, Canada.
Remarks. See below.

Aquila chrysaetos (Linnaeus) / A. bivia Emslie & Czaplewski 1999
Material. CM 34018, r ungual phalanx with tip and base missing.
Description. Corresponds in size and shape with the terminal phalanx of digits one (the hind toe) and two of an eagle. Brodkorb & Mourer-Chauviré (1984) referred it to A. chrysaetos rather than H. leucocephalus based on large overall size and more gentle distal tapering of the claw core (plantar view), implying a longer claw. Based on these criteria, I found it to be larger than all comparative specimens of H. leucocephalus and most comparative skeletons of A. chrysaetos. It agrees well in size and shape with one comparative skeleton of A. chrysaetos (USNM BIRDS 19724). However, the possibility that it belongs to the larger early Irvingtonian species Aquila bivia cannot be excluded.
Remarks. This large ungual phalanx appears to be attributable either to the Golden Eagle (A. chrysaetos) or to a larger, early Irvingtonian species of Aquila described from Florida and Arizona (Emslie & Czaplewski 1999). The modern distribution of the Golden Eagle in North America is primarily in the west, but the species does have a rarely observed wintering population in the region of Cumberland Bone Cave (Brodeur et al. 1996).
