Allothrips Hood, 1908: 372. Type-species A. megacephalus Hood, by monotypy.
This genus currently comprises 23 species from various parts of the world. Confusing patterns of variation within and between populations led to the suggestion that these wingless thrips form localised demes, with the result that most of the nominal forms were treated as subspecies associated with one of two clines, one across North America (Stannard, 1955) and one across the Palaearctic (Mound, 1972a). Adding to these problems in species level taxonomy, there is evidence that some of the nominal forms have been dispersed across the world, presumably by human trading involving shipping or aircraft. Thus A. brasilianus Hood is known from Rio de Janeiro and Hawaii (Sakimura & Bianchi, 1977), the three forms described from Australia share many character states with forms known from South-Western USA, and two forms from Northern India are scarcely distinct from forms known from California (Mound, 1972a).
In all but two of the described species (or subspecies) there are four pairs of major setae on the head (interocular, postocular, lateral postocular, and midvertex), but in both A. brasilianus and A. magnus Okajima & Urushihara the midvertex setae are scarcely larger than the minor setae on the vertex. The new species described below similarly has this pair of setae unusually small, but in addition the lateral postocular setae are also small, and the interocular setae are only a little larger (Fig. 8). Furthermore, the third antennal segment of this species has a prominent sub-basal flange unlike any other member of the genus (Fig. 10). Despite this difference, a similar sub-basal flange on the third antennal segment occurs in one or more species of several unrelated genera of Phlaeothripidae, suggesting that its use in defining genera needs to be re-considered (Mound & Minaei, 2007).

description: Cephennomicrus typicus species group
A new species group is established for six species that share a modified frons in males (indistinct only in one species), with a median setose frontal impression or flattening, and a similar form of the aedeagus, which has an oval median lobe with approximately triangular apical region and the endophallus with a distinct flagellum with a broad proximal portion. Additional key characters are: the antennae with an indistinctly delimited, slender, trimerous club; the body covered with very short and recumbent, barely noticeable setae; the pronotal base with five pits, three of them connected by a transverse groove. This group includes species described by Scott (1922): C. cordithorax, C. cornutus, C. minor, C. perexiguus, C. politus, and C. typicus.

Apterous Idolothripinae, Allothripina. Antennae 8-segmented, VII–VIII closely joined, VII sharply constricted to basal neck (Figs 16, 17); segment III with either 2 or no sensoria, IV with 2 sensoria. Head about as wide as long, eyes not large (Figs 11, 13); maxillary stylets wide apart, retracted to postocular setae; mouth cone broadly rounded, maxillary palps with terminal sensorium large. Pronotum weakly sclerotised, epimeral sutures sometimes incomplete; anteromarginal and midlateral setae minute, remaining three pairs of major setae small. Fore tarsal tooth absent in both sexes. Prosternal basantra absent or faintly indicated; mesopraesternum and mesoeusternum anterior margin strongly eroded, metathoracic sternopleural sutures broad. Metanotum transverse, without sculpture, median setae small. Pelta extending almost full width of tergite II; tergite II lateral margins strongly eroded; tergal setae small or minute; tergite IX setae S1 shorter than tube; female with fustis scarcely longer than width, almost circular; tube much shorter than head, anal setae about as long as tube (Figs 12, 14); sternites with a few minute discal setae, marginal setae small.
Type-species. Minaeithrips aliceae sp.n.
Relationships. The two species placed in this new genus invoke the typical problems associated with systematic studies on apterous Phlaeothripidae, in that most of the characteristic features they have in common are “loss apomorphies”. On the basis of the large sensorium on the maxillary palps they are members of the Allothripina but, as indicated in the key below, the differences between them are considerable. Unlike several other members of the Allothripina, the males do not have a fore tarsal tooth.

description: Genus Gymnolaelaps Berlese
Hypoaspis (Gymnolaelaps) Berlese, 1916: 170.
Type species Laelaps myrmecophilus Berlese, 1892, by original designation.
Diagnosis. Laelapidae usually with a three-tined palp tarsal claw, proximal tine occasionally reduced, rarely absent; genital shield large, abutting anal shield, with 1–3 pairs of setae in addition to the genital setae st5, all located on the edges of the shield; pre-sternal shield well-developed and sclerotised; a large subtriangular podal shield usually present posterior to coxa IV; epistome with irregularly serrated anterior margin; genu IV with nine setae including one ventral seta. Dorsal shield often with paired Zx setae between J and Z setae, unpaired Jx setae also often present; dorsal shield setae distally pointed, smooth or slightly serrated, not long and whip-like.
Notes on the genus. The genus Gymnolaelaps has been collected in many parts of the world, almost always from ants' nests. The genus includes approximately 35 described species (Hunter, 1967; Gu & Guo, 1997; Afifi & Abdel-Halim, 1998). Gymnolaelaps has often been considered as a subgenus of a very broad genus Hypoaspis, but we consider it to be a separate genus, following Evans & Till (1979). Nemati et al. (2000) reported five species of Gymnolaelaps from Iran— G. hospes (Berlese, 1923), G. myrmophilus (Michael, 1891), G. vitzthumi Womersley, 1956, G. australicus Womersley, 1956, and an unidentified species. We follow Hunter (1961) in placing G. vitzthumi in the genus Laelaspis. Hunter (1967) reported that the type species G. myrmecophilus has three stronglydeveloped tines on the palp tarsal claw, as do most other species in the genus. Two species, G. canestrinii (Berlese, 1892) and G. myrmophilus, have a weakly-developed proximal tine, and in G. krantzi (Hunter, 1967), there are only two tines. Jalalizand et al. (2004) reported Pseudoparasitus sp. near australicus Womersley and P. myrmecophilus (Berlese) from Iran. We place both of these species in the genus Gymnolaelaps, but we did not find specimens of G. myrmecophilus in the present study.

Apterous female. Colour brown, tarsi, apices of tibiae and basal two-thirds of tube yellow; head sometimes paler medially; antennal segment II apex paler than pedicel of segment III. Head with cheeks convex; eyes rounded, with at least 20 ommatidia on dorsal surface and 15 ventrally; ocelli present but very small; postocular setae weakly capitate, shorter than eye width; one pair of minute interocular setae, vertex without setae medially (Fig. 13). Antennal segment III with two sensoria, pedicel slightly ridged; segments IV–VII each sharply constricted to a basal pedicel (Fig. 17). Pronotal am and ml major setae minute, aa, epim and pa major setae short and weakly capitate. Thoracic sternites extensively eroded (Fig. 15), but mesopraesternum weakly indicated. Meso and metanota with complete transverse suture. Pelta eroded posteromedially; tergites II–VII each with one pair of marginal setae with apices rounded; tergite IX three pairs of major setae rather stout with apices rounded.
Measurements of holotype female in microns. Body length 1400. Head, length 150; width 180; postocular setae 35. Pronotum, length 100; width 220; major setae am 5, aa 20, ml 5, epim 35, pa 20. Metanotal median setae 15. Tergite IX setae S1 45, S2 55, S3 60. Tube, length 95; anal setae?60. Antennal segments III– VII+VIII length, 40, 40, 40, 40, 60.
Material studied. Holotype female, Tasmania, Lake St Clair, ii–iii. 2004 (M. Driessen).
Paratypes: same date and locality as holotype 2 females 1 male; Lake Pedder, 5 females 2 males, ii–iii. 2004.
Comments. This species was collected during a survey of invertebrates associated with “button-grass moorland” in Tasmania. The dominant plant in these areas is Gymnoschoenus (Cyperaceae), and this thrips presumably feeds on fungi at the bases of these sedges.

Priesneriella Hood, 1927: 198. Type-species P. citricauda Hood, by monotypy.
This genus comprises nine species worldwide, three from North America, four from Europe, and one each from New Zealand and Senegal. However, this West African species, described by Bournier (1994), does not belong in this genus: it should be referred to as Nesothrips vercambrei (Bournier) comb.n. Indeed, there is nothing in the original description and illustrations to distinguish this from the widespread species N. propinquus (Bagnall). Mound & Palmer (1983) placed three genera into synonymy with Priesneriella, these having been distinguished mainly on the number of sensoria on the third antennal segment. The type-species of the genus is similar to P. gnomus Mound & Palmer from New Zealand and to P. s e m i n o l e (Hood) from Florida in lacking sensoria on the third antennal segment and in the wide-apart position of the maxillary stylets (Mound & Palmer, 1983). In these three species, the ocellar setae are reported to be small, but among the Australian specimens they are well developed and slightly capitate in the macropterous female as well as in one apterous female, and one of these setae is well-developed in a micropterous female. This variation further supports the decision by Mound & Palmer (1983) to recognize only one genus for these nine species. As is common in such species that are usually wingless, the thoracic sternites are weakly sclerotised, the basantra almost absent, the ferna small, the mesopraesternum absent, and the anterior margin of the mesoeusternum often heavily eroded.

Priesneriella citricauda Hood, 1927: 199
Until now, this species has been known only from apterae collected in Santa Clara County, California (Cott, 1956). In contrast, it is here recorded from four different sites in the north west of Western Australia. The specimens listed by Cott (1956) from California have been re-examined, and they are considered to represent the same species as the Australian specimens that include apterae of both sexes, as well as female micropterae and one female macroptera. Three specimens taken near Broome have the posteroangular setae on tergites VI–VIII weakly capitate and shorter than the tergites, whereas in the Californian apterae these setae are finely acute and longer than each tergite. Similarly, the pronotal setae differ in form between these samples. Moreover, the apex of antennal segment V is truncate in the Broome individuals (Fig. 18), and there is a faint suture visible between segments VI and VII, whereas segment V is weakly constricted apically in the Californian specimens and segments VI–VII are fused with no suture present. Despite these differences, two specimens taken near Dampier are similar to Californian specimens in all character states, and one male from Barrow Island has the tergal posteroangular setae intermediate, being long but capitate. Interpopulation variation is to be expected in wingless species, and presumably the disjunct distribution represents another example of the transoceanic dispersal that has been recognised in several other fungus-feeding thrips (Mound, 1983). Furthermore, considering the variation in the Australian specimens, the species probably originally came from this continent.
Macropterae have not previously been recorded in this, nor most congeneric, species. The available macropterous female has parallel-sided forewings with no duplicated cilia, and tergites III–VII each have one pair of unusually elongate sigmoid wing-retaining setae.
Material studied. Western Australia; Broome, 1 female aptera from lawn grass, 28.ii.2005; 20km east of Broome, 1 female microptera from dead wood, 28.ii.2005; 20km east of Broome, 1 female macroptera from Cenchrus setiger, 1.iii.2005; 90km south east of Dampier, 1 female microptera, 1 male aptera from Acacia coriacea, 23.ix.1995; Barrow Island, 1 male aptera, v.2006.

description: Few-shot image classification(FSIC) aims to recognize novel classes given few labeled images from base classes. Recent works have achieved promising classification performance, especially for metric-learning methods, where a measure at only image feature level is usually used. In this paper, we argue that measure at such a level may not be effective enough to generalize from base to novel classes when using only a few images. Instead, a multi-level descriptor of an image is taken for consideration in this paper. We propose a multi-level correlation network (MLCN) for FSIC to tackle this problem by effectively capturing local information. Concretely, we present the self-correlation module and cross-correlation module to learn the semantic correspondence relation of local information based on learned representations. Moreover, we propose a pattern-correlation module to capture the pattern of fine-grained images and find relevant structural patterns between base classes and novel classes. Extensive experiments and analysis show the effectiveness of our proposed method on four widely-used FSIC benchmarks. The code for our approach is available at: https://github.com/Yunkai696/MLCN.

description: Genus Laelaspis Berlese
Laelaps (Laelaspis) Berlese, 1903: 13. Type species Laelaps astronomicus Koch, 1839, by original designation.
Diagnosis. Laelapidae with a two-tined palp tarsal claw. Genital shield wide, strongly expanded posterior to coxae IV, its posterior margin rounded, with characteristic ornamentation including two distinct Λ-shaped lines; with two pairs of setae on extreme edges of shield in addition to st 5. Pre-sternal shield usually absent. Genu IV with nine setae including one ventral seta. Dorsal shield setae smooth or slightly serrated, sometimes with paired Zx setae between J and Z series setae, sometimes also with unpaired Jx setae.
Notes on the genus. Laelaspis has often been treated as a subgenus of Hypoaspis, but we here consider it to be a separate genus following recent works such as Lindquist et al. (2009). The differences between Laelaspis and the other discussed in this paper are summarised in Table 1. The cosmopolitan genus Laelaspis includes about 20 species, which are usually associated with ants (Hunter, 1961, 1964a). Some species are free-living in soil and litter, such as L. vitzthumi (Womersley, 1956) (Hunter, 1964b) or associated with small mammals, such as L. patulus Allred, 1969. Several species of Laelaspis have been reported from Iran (Nemati et al., 2000; Kamali et al., 2001; Faraji et al., 2008; Babaeian et al., 2010; Hajizadeh et al., 2010a, 2010b; Nemati & Babaeian, 2010). However, we believe that some of these records are based on misidentifications, or refer to species that should be placed in other genera. These records and others will be discussed in detail in a separate paper on the genus Laelapsis.

Parabisternalis Ueckermann & Loots, 1995: 35. Type species Parabisternalis yemeni Ueckermann & Loots, 1995, by original designation (synonymy by Shaw & Seeman, 2009).
Diagnosis. Laelapidae with the dorsal shield oval to subcircular, usually with posterior margin reduced or truncate; deutosternal groove with more than seven multidenticulate rows of denticles; chelicerae usually edentate, rarely with weak teeth, fixed digit reduced; palp trochanter with one or two setae, v2 sometimes present; tarsi I–IV with well-developed ambulacral pads, claws usually absent; genu I and tibia I usually with three ventral setae, occasionally two; peritreme short, not extending past anterior margin of coxa II.
Notes on the genus. The diagnosis of Myrmozercon used here is based on that of Shaw & Seeman (2009). The genus Myrmozercon includes about 20 described species from Europe, Australia, Africa, and North America (Rosario & Hunter, 1988; Walter, 2003; Shaw & Seeman, 2009; Trach & Khaustov, 2011). All species are associated with ants, except for one quarantine interception on plant material (Hunter & Hunter, 1963). Myrmozercon robustisetae Rosario & Hunter, 1988 was described from a termite nest, but this species is now known to belong to the termitophilous genus Urozercon Berlese, 1901 (in Berlese & Leonardi, 1901) (OConnor & Klimov, 2004). Shaw & Seeman (2009) synonymised Parabisternalis Ueckermann & Loots, 1995 with Myrmozercon, and included the subgenus Myrmonyssus (Laelaspulus) Berlese, 1904 as a synonym of Myrmozercon. We anticipate that M. yemeni Ueckermann & Loots, 1995 will be found associated with ants, once its biology is studied. The only species known from western Asia and eastern Europe are M. ovatum Karawajew, 1909 from Turkmenistan and M. tauricus Trach & Khaustov, 2011, from Ukraine. The genus is now recorded in Iran for the first time.
