Matta Crosby, 1934: 20 (Type species, M. hambletoni Crosby, 1934).
Diagnosis. Species of the genus Matta can be distinguished from other Neotropical Tetrablemmidae by having only the two eyes, separated (Figs 23A, 27A) or fused (Figs. 2A, 16A, see Lehtinen, 1981, figs. 297-298). The eyes may be absent (Figs 7A, 14A) and the species could be confused only with Monoblemma blind Neotropical species (see Brignoli, 1978, fig 5), but differed by the strongly raised carapace (Figure 2B) and male palp with embolic projection and conductor (Fig. 3B, F). Matta species exhibit high carapace and apophysis in the male chelicerae as in Caraimata species (see Lehtinen, 1981, figs 304-305), but can be distinguished from this genus by the presence of a pair or absence of eyes, while species of Caraimata having four eyes (see Lehtinen, 1981, fig 299, 302).
Composition. Ten species: Matta hambletoni Crosby; M. angelomachadoi Brescovit; M. mackenziei Shear; M. zuiuda sp. n., Matta pititinha sp. n., Matta humhum sp. n., Matta cambito sp. n., Matta humrrum sp. n., Matta nuusga sp. n., and Matta teteia sp. n.

Campanularia gigantea Hincks, 1866: 297; 1868: 174, pl. 35 fig. 1; Jäderholm, 1909: 69, pl. 7, figs 1–3; Christiansen, 1972: 293.
Clytia gigantea — Hirohito, 1995: 61 –63, fig. 18a, b; Vervoort & Watson, 2003: 418, 419, fig. 102J; Calder, 2012: 46 –47, figs 46–47.
Material examined. 51103#5, one stem 13 mm high and two extra hydrothecae, no gonothecae.
Description. The 13-mm-high stem is provided with three hydrothecae (two of them broken). The isolated hydrothecae are provided with a very long pedicel. Hydrotheca elongate, roughly cylindrical in distal half, tapering in basal half (Fig. 5A). Rim of hydrothecal aperture with eight to 13 cusps, with smoothly curved distal part, curved inwards, and separated by deep, rounded embayments (Fig. 5B).
Measurements (in µm). Hydrotheca: height 1100–2000, diameter at aperture 400–840, diameter at diaphragm 100–140, height of basal chamber 40–100.
Remarks. The two isolated hydrothecae are distinctly smaller (1100–1240 high and 400–460 in maximum diameter) than the undamaged one of the branched stem (2000 high and 840 in maximum diameter). Calder (2012) also found hydrothecae exceeding 2000 µm in length in his material and Christiansen (1972) even reaching 3000 µm.
The gonotheca of this species was recently described by Calder (2012).
As indicated by other authors (e.g. Calder 2012) this species is easily recognizable by the large size of the hydrotheca, as well as by the shape of the hydrothecal cusp (linguiform sensu Calder 2012).
According to Calder (2012), reports of this species from the Mediterranean and the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of North America need confirmation. The species has also been reported from Chile (Leloup 1974; Galea et al. 2009), but Galea & Schories (2012) indicated that Leloup’s record was based on a misidentification and that the attributable record by Galea et al. (2009) was also erroneous.
Ecology and distribution. This species was found at depths between 20 (Calder 2012) and 512 m (Vervoort & Watson 2003); the present material comes from 930 to 950 m, extending its lower bathymetric limit.
According to Calder (2012), Clytia gigantea is distributed for the boreal waters of the North Atlantic. However, the species has also been reported from Japanese waters (Hirohito 1995) and from the Chatham Islands region, in the South Pacific (Vervoort & Watson 2003). Our material comes from the Porcupine Seabight.

Fig. 6.
Description. A species of the Dendrelaphis caudolineatus group, characterized by the combination of 1) absence of black longitudinal stripes; 2) absence of a pale ventrolateral line; 3) absence of a black postocular stripe; 4) an orange stripe on the neck in live specimens (Taylor, 1922; Gaulke, 1994); 5) 173–181 ventrals (females – note that Gaulke [1994] recorded values of 171 and 172 in two specimens of undetermined sex); 6) 104–110 subcaudals; 7) relative tail-length 0.262–0.270; 8) 6–7 temporal scales on each side; 9) 9–11 infralabials on each side; 10) 4–5 scales touching the posterior borders of the parietal scales; 11) maximum total length females 126.0 cm.
Sexual dimorphism. Sexual dimorphism could not be established because only females were included in this study.
Distribution. Dendrelaphis flavescens inhabits the Sulu Archipelago (Bongao, Bubuan, Sanga-Sanga, Tawi-Tawi (Gaulke, 1994; Taylor, 1922)).

Zaranga pannosa Moore, 1884: 357; TL: “Umballa District” [Ambala district, Haryana state, NW India].
Zaranga pannosa: Hampson, 1893: 147, fig. (moth, female); Streltzov & Yakovlev, 2007, fig. 7 (valva), pl. 2: 1, 2 (moths).

Zaranga pannosa necopinatus Schintlmeister, 2008: 36: fig. 62 (male genitalia), pl. 2: 15 (moth); TL: Meifiong Prov. Nantou, Taiwan.
Genetic data (Tab. 1, Fig. 24). Specimen of “ Zaranga tukuringra ” (GenBank accession: LC176123) from Yunnan (China) possesses the DNA sequences highly distanced from both Z. koreana (4.3–4.5% p-distance) and true Z. tukuringra (5.3–5.7% p-distance), which could assume it belongs to Z. pannosa or another unknown species.
Distribution. Northern Pakistan, North-West India, Nepal (Z. pannosa pannosa); Taiwan (Z. pannosa necopinatus) (Schintlmeister 2008) (Fig. 25).
Note. Schintlmeister (2008: 37) stated that “there is a larger distribution gap in S[outh] China and Indochina” between the Z. pannosa pannosa and Z. pannosa necopinatus. However, the specimen of “ Zaranga tukuringra Streltzov & Yakovlev, 2007 ” from Yunnan on the photo from the site “Digital Moths of Japan ” (Yanagida et al. 2017), likely belongs to Z. pannosa. This correlates with the supposed genetic data of this species (see above). So, Z. pannosa can inhabit at least SW China also. The figure of Z. pannosa in Hampson (1893: 147) shows a female, not a male, as indicated under the figure.

Material examined. TRIP 2832/30, a few stems up to 15 mm high, without gonothecae, on tube of benthic organism (NIWA 65573).
Description. Monosiphonic stems up to 15 mm high and with up to three incipient lateral branches; only one with a hydrotheca. Stems divided into relatively long and thin internodes arranged in a marked zigzag. Perisarc of internodes smooth.
Hydrothecae alternately arranged in one plane, widely separated. Hydrotheca flask-shaped, slightly curved outwards. Maximum diameter where hydrotheca becomes free; diameter gently decreasing distally and more markedly basally. Adcauline wall adnate to internode for less than half its length; free part slightly convex, with three weakly-marked undulations; adnate part straight or somewhat convex. Most abcauline wall slightly convex, becoming concave at distal part. Rim of hydrothecal aperture with four equally-developed cusps separated by shallow embayments.
Measurements (in µm). Internodes: length 950–2200, diameter at hydrothecal base 220–230. Hydrotheca: abcauline length 430–510, free adcauline length 360–410, adnate adcauline length 230–280, adcauline length 590– 680, diameter at aperture 210−240, diameter at diaphragm 130, maximum diameter 270–290.
Remarks. The present material is in complete agreement with Stechow’s species in the long and geniculate internodes and in the shape and size of the hydrotheca.
Ecology and distribution. The material studied was collected at depths between 977 and 1037 m, southeast off Stewart Island, epibiotic on tube of benthic organism. This constitutes the first record of the species from New Zealand waters.

Neuere Funde dieser Art gelingen in der Schweiz vor allem im Alpenvorland. Im Jura wurde die Art zuletzt 1993 gefunden. Die drei Tiere fand ich nicht an einem Fliessgewässer, sondern am Rande eines Grabens in einer Hanggrube unter Steinen nahe dem Wasser, wo kaum Vegetation vorhanden war.
Als inneralpines Tal ist das Wallis ganz anders mit Laufkäfern ausgestattet als der Rest der Schweiz. Heisse Talbereiche und eisige Gipfel sorgen für einen grossen Kontrast an Lebensräumen.

description: Saetoniscus n. gen.
Diagnosis: Pereonites 6 and 7 dorsomedially fused. Body length about 5.5 times width of pereonite 2. Fine setules dispersed over dorsum, female with anteroventral spine on operculum. A1 5­segmented, peducular article 4 with long lateral projection. A2 flagellar article 1o longer than last peduncular one, swollen. Mandible with palp. Mxp epipod very long and slender, reaching distal margin of palp article 3. P 1­4 with stout sensory setae on ventral margins of carpus and propodus, dorsal margins with stout setae. P 5­7 with very long and slender setae ventrally; propodus with long natatory setae dorsally and tiny setules. Urp with short, slender exopod; approximately 1/4 length of endopod; exopod 1/3 width of endopod.
Type species: Saetoniscus meteori n. sp.
Etymology: Saetoniscus is taken from the Latin saeta, seta, referring to the long slightly plumose setae on P5­7 propodi. The gender of the name is masculine.
Distribution: abyssal Angola Basin, south Atlantic Ocean, 5389 m.
Remarks: Genera that most closely resemble the new genus Saetoniscus are Regabellator Siebenaller & Hessler, 1981 and Exiliniscus Siebenaller & Hessler, 1981. Regabellator, however, can easily be distinguished from Saetoniscus by the ventral spines on pereonites 6 and 7 and the missing natatory setae on P5­7. Saetoniscus has an anteroventrally directed spine on the operculum. Regabellator has natatory setae on P3­5. Natatory setae are absent in Saetoniscus. Pereonites 6 and 7 are dorsally fused in Saetoniscus and are not dorsally fused in Exiliniscus. Exiliniscus has a rostral process, which is absent in Saetoniscus. A2 peduncular article 5is swollen in Saetoniscus. A2 flagellar article 1 of Exiliniscus is long and slender. Mxp epipod of Exiliniscus is short and the uropodal exopod in this genus is minute.

Nematothecae cylindrical, resting on a short pedicel; aperture circular.
Measurements (in µm). Hydrotheca: abcauline length 280–300, free adcauline length 140–170, adnate adcauline length 270–280, adcauline length 420–440, diameter at aperture 120–130, diameter at diaphragm 90. Nematotheca: height 80, diameter at aperture 25, maximum diameter 30, pedicel length 20.
Remarks. I refer this material to C. prima because of the presence of four longitudinal rows of hydrothecae with an X-arrangement, i.e. there are two alternating series on opposite sides of the pinnae. Present material also agrees with Busk’s species in the shape of the gonothecae, with the aperture laterally placed on a dome-shaped, hood-like structure, without the sharp projection typical of Cryptolaria pectinata (Allman, 1888).
Ecology and distribution. The material studied was collected at a depth of 175−206 m, off Snares Islands. Coppiniae present in March. The species is widely distributed in New Zealand waters (Vervoort & Watson 2003).

description: Belminus costaricensis Herrer, Lent & Wygodzinsky
(Fig. 2).
Belminus costaricensis Herrer, Lent & Wygodzinsky 1954, p. 95, figs. 42–48; Type locality: Costa Rica, Esparta.
Diagnosis. Adult body length 8–10mm, males generally smaller than females. Body surface granulose, ground color black. Head longer than wide and slightly longer than pronotum. Posterior margin of first rostral segment reaching level of middle of eye, first segment longer than second. Thorax with scutellum excavate on disc, somewhat compressed dorsoventrally and sulcate dorsally along middle. Hemelytra black in ground color, membrane with five yellowish spots, one at base of each vein, one at apex of corium and one adjacent to apex of corium. Hind femur, with two spine-like processes, mid and hind femora with only one. Abdomen with posterior fourth of each connexival segment yellowish or reddish (Lent & Wygodzinsky 1979).
Distribution. Costa Rica, Mexico (Veracruz) (Zárate & Zárate 1985, Galvão et al. 2003).
Records in Veracruz. Municipality of San Andrés Tuxtla, Estación de Biología Tropical “Los Tuxtlas. ”
Comments. In Mexico, B. costaricensis has been recorded only by one male and one nymph collected by C. R. Beutelspacher from a bromeliad in the Tropical Biology Station of Los Tuxtlas (Instituto de Biología, UNAM) (Lent & Wygodzinsky 1979, Zárate & Zárate 1985). Belminus costaricensis has no medical importance, as it shows low infection rates with T. cruzi in nature, apparently is not abundant, has preference for wild environments, and has been considered as a transitional group between predatory and hematophagous habits (Schofield 1998, Sandoval et al. 2000, 2004). Mexican specimens were not seen by us.

Specimens examined. Japan, Ryukyu Islands, Okinawa-hontou Is., Naha-shi, Sueyoshi park: 8 females on Cymbopogon citratus [Poaceae], 24.xi.2014; 1 female on Cymbopogon citratus, 10.i.2015; 5 females on Cymbopogon citratus, 12.i.2015; 6 females on Cymbopogon citratus, 26.xi.2016 (all collected by K. Minoura).
Notes. This is the first record of Sorghothrips meishanensis from Japan. This genus includes five species as follows (ThripsWiki 2021): fuscus (Ananthakrishnan) and jonnaphilus (Ramakrishna) from India, longistylus (Trybom) from Egypt, and meishanensis from Taiwan and China (Ananthakrishnan 1965; Priesner 1936; Ramakrishna 1928; Xie et al. 2012), sakagamii (Kudo) from Taiwan (Kudo 1974). In Japanese plant quarantine however, S. jonnaphilus was intercepted on Asparagus officinalis imported from Thailand (Masumoto et al. 2003). S. meishanensis was described from Taiwan but there is a female of S. meishanensis from Thailand in the collection of Tokyo University of Agriculture. This species can be distinguished easily from other members of the genus by having the abdominal sternites III and IV of females each with a small pore plate. Another species from Taiwan, S. sakagamii that was described in the genus Plesiothrips Hood, seems to be known only from the type series. However, sakagamii and meishanensis probably represent a single species, judging from observation of a paratype of sakagamii. Unfortunately, the sternal pore plates on this paratype are invisible because of lack of treatment with KOH solution.

The species is very similar to S. langkawieinsis Ng & Mound by their uniformly pale and slender body. However, the abdominal tergites have no microtrichia along their posterior margins and tergite VIII setae S2 (submedian) exceed the posterior margin. In contrast, in langkawiensis the abdominal tergites have small dentate posteromarginal microtrichia at least laterally (small microtrichia complete on VIII).
