Diagnosis. Females of the new species similar to those of B. tibialis sp. nov. (Figs 4 D–E, 6D–E) in having the same appearance, anteriorly located, slit-like copulatory openings and similar structure of epigyne, but can be distinguished by the longer copulatory ducts (Figs 2 B, 3H) and the shape of spermathecae (Figs 2 B, 3H).

Diagnosis. As for genus.
Description. Holotype tegmen. As in diagnosis and the following. Darkly infuscate throughout wherever preserved (darkness differing among specimens presumably by preservation) with some light spots between veins, crossveins as in P. maculata, but not as many or as distinct (perhaps preservation?). ScP with eight accessory branches preserved, surely more in missing basal region; no stridulatory file detected on CuPb.
Type specimens. Holotype. SR 00-04-06 part, no counterpart (Fig. 5), a well-preserved anterior basal-mid region of a tegmen, precostal region not preserved, with a fragmentary portion of a second wing closely associated and a beetle preserved between fragments; deposited in SR; collected by Cassie Douse at Republic locality B4131, May 1, 2000, labelled: Holotype, Republicopteron douseae Archibald, Gu, and Mathewes. Paratype 1: SRUI 09- 95 - 73, (Fig. 6), collected by Michael Santino at Republic exposure A0307, April 19, 2009; labelled Republicopteron douseae Archibald, Gu, and Mathewes Paratype 1.

Diagnosis. Sudesna can be distinguished from Dictyna by the reduced or absent spur of the male palpal tibia, the prolaterally arising embolus, the anteriorly located epigynal copulatory openings widely separated from each other, the tube-like copulatory ducts, the presence of spermathecal heads laterally.
Composition. S. anaulax (Simon, 1908) from Western Australia, S. grammica (Simon, 1893) from Philippines, S. grossa (Simon, 1906) from India, S. circularis sp. nov., S. digitata sp. nov. (both from Southwest China), and the type species S. hedini (Schenkel, 1936) from Northwest China.

Beania maxilladentata Ramalho, Muricy & Taylor, 2008: 504, fig. 4; Vieira et al. 2010: 8, figs 9–11, 21
Material examined. MMF 44296, 44299, 44309, 32 º38’03.34’’ N; 16º56’04.05’’ W, 11 m, August 2013, on rock samples.
Remarks. The specimens found in Madeira fully match the morphological characteristics given for B. maxilladentata —colony formed by branching uniserial chains of autozooids, zooid length 0.734–0.935 mm, attached to substratum by rootlets with up to 3 pairs of marginal spines and 2–4 oral spines, some of which may be replaced by 1–2 distolateral avicularia. A distinctive feature of the species is the strongly curved avicularian mandible with 1–2 tooth-shaped accessory structures. Madeira specimens exhibit the same patterns of branching, with new zooids formed from distal and lateral buds, and rootlets arising from the proximomedial buds.
This species was previously known only from shallow waters of Rio de Janeiro (Ramalho et al. 2008; Vieira et al. 2010). Ramalho et al. (2008) considered this species endemic to Rio de Janeiro; the presence of this species in Madeira Island could be the result of a recent introduction.
Only one species of Beania was previously recorded in Madeira— Beania hirtissima (Heller, 1867) (see Norman 1909; Waters 1899); it has multiserial colonies and zooids with stout spines so confusion of the two species is improbable.

Remarks. Only one previous work reported A. anguina in Madeira, as a common species on seaweeds (Norman 1909). Aetea anguina is considered a widespread species in temperate and tropical waters but not in polar waters. This species grows in shallow water, mainly on seaweeds, but it is possible to find it on rocks, shells, hydroids or other bryozoans (Prenant & Bobin 1966; Hayward & Ryland 1998). The specimens recorded in this study were found on rock samples, particularly parts covered by coralline algae.

Material examined. MMF 44297, 44312, 32º38’03.34’’ N; 16º56’04.05’’ W, 11 m, August 2013, on rock samples. Remarks. This species was originally described from a poorly preserved specimen from Madeira (Busk 1860) and later figured from another better-preserved specimen also from Madeira (Busk 1861). Recently Vieira et al. (2014) transferred the species to the new genus Scrupocaberea, based on the presence of a well-chitinized operculum, a toothed rim on the distal edge of ovicellate zooids, and the presence of paired axillary vibracula. The species was considered to be widespread in tropical and subtropical waters (Harmer 1926; Tilbrook 2006), but according to Vieira et al. (2014) several of these records represent a species complex that includes at least two more species; additional study, including molecular, is required for confirmation.
The specimens found during the present study correspond to previous descriptions and to the new data given by Vieira et al. (2014). Our study is the first account using SEM images of new specimens of Scrupocaberea maderensis from Madeira.

Remarks. Reptadeonella violacea is widespread in mostly warm-temperate areas, although in the Atlantic it reaches the Isle of Man (Hayward & Ryland, 1999). It is abundant in the Mediterranean, Cape Verde Islands, West Africa, Gulf of Mexico, Brazil and the Pacific Coast of North America (Hayward & Ryland, 1999). In Madeira, R. violacea was previously recorded by Norman (1909) and is fairly common on the south coast of the island (Canning-Clode and Kaufmann, pers. obs.).

Remarks. The specimens studied here match the descriptions of Schizoporella dunkeri in the literature (Hayward & Ryland 1995, 1999; Reverter-Gil & Fernández-Pulpeiro 1999; Hayward & McKinney 2002). This species has a broad distribution along the North Atlantic coast, from the Faroe Islands and western Norway (Hayward & Ryland 1999) to the Canary Islands (Arístegui Ruiz 1984). It is also very abundant in several areas including the northwest Iberian Peninsula (Reverter-Gil & Fernández-Pulpeiro 1999, 2001). In the Mediterranean, despite difficulties with synonymy (see Hayward & Ryland 1995, 1999), it seems to be abundant from shallow water to 60 m and it is very common in the Adriatic (Hayward & McKinney 2002). Our findings represent the first record of S. dunkeri for Madeira.

Remarks. Schizoporella unicornis was recently redescribed by Tompsett et al. (2009) from the type material. Our specimens match the descriptions and figures given by these authors. The species appears to have a biogeographical range in the northeast Atlantic, from northwest Africa and Spain to the Faroes and western Norway (Hayward & Ryland, 1999). In Madeira it seems to be common, having been recorded previously by several authors (Busk 1860; Waters 1899; Norman 1909).

Note. Young & Pollock (2010) provided a detailed description of Pyrochroidae.

Remarks. The coloration is characteristic in the males, having a dark thorax, greenish yellow abdomen, black front tibia, and remaining leg segments yellow. The subtriangular anal point is uncommon. According to Sasa (1980) and Pinder (1978), specimens from Europe and Japan have 3 or 4 lateral setae medially on the superior volsella, whereas the Chinese specimens have 3–7 setae. Some Chinese specimens of this species were misidentified and listed as M. chloris (Meigen) and M. diffinis (Edwards) by Wang (2000).

Hippoporella maderensis Souto, Reverter-Gil & Fernández-Pulpeiro, 2014: 146, figs 26–32.
Material examined MMF 44304, 32º38’03.34’’ N; 16º56’04.05’’ W, 11 m, August 2013, on rock samples.
Remarks. Hippoporella maderensis was recently described by Souto et al. (2014) from rhodoliths collected near Funchal, Madeira. The present specimens, with the same characters as the type material, were not found on rhodoliths but growing over coralline algae upon rocks. Therefore, the species might have a preference for colonizing substrata formed by coralline algae.

Diagnosis. The female of Macromyrme sinuata (Olivier) is similar to that of the new species, M. leleji sp. nov. but can be separated by the following: elevated posterior portion of clypeus weakly tuberculate; venter of F1 flattened basally; posterior propodeal face above with distinct median tubercle; T1 with posteromedian quadrangular spot of pale setae that extends onto T2; setal spots of T2 separated by distance more than their own diameter.
MALE. Unknown.
Material examined. 1 Ƥ, Ghazza (Palestine), 1917 [MAC].
Distribution. Egypt [Pyramids (Giza, Lower Nile Valley), 29°58'34"N 31°6'45"E] (André 1910), Morocco, Iran (west), Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Jordan, Palestine, Cyprus.
