description: Tribe Mylabrini
Taxonomic literature on the Mylabrini indicates that it probably originated in Africa, and might have dispersed in both Southern Palaearctic and Oriental regions with significant post-Eocene radiations. This tribe is distinguishable amongst the Meloidae, subfamily Meloinae, by the combination of the following features: labrum not longitudinally furrowed or carinate; maxillary galeae not modified; antennal socket close to eye, placed above frontal suture, antennomeres variable in number (seven to eleven) and distinctly widened to apex (except in the genus Lydoceras Marseul, 1870 and in a few species of the genus Hycleus Latreille, 1817); claws not fringed on ventral blade; elytra red–brown with maculae or fasciae, rarely unicolorous; mesosternum with a distinctly modified anterior area or at least with a smooth and glabrous area whose surface is distinct from that of the remaining area. The anatomy of the mesosternum and mesepisterna (e. g., Mylabris and Croscherichia) shows that the mesepisterna are unmodified anteriorly, which is important for identification of Mylabrini, a strictly Old world group, as explained and illustrated in Pardo Alcaide (1952, 1954 a, 1955, 1958a) and Bologna (1991a). These structures are extremely important for separating the genera and species of this tribe, the most speciose of the family. The traditional classification of this tribe was rearranged by Pardo Alcaide (1950, 1952, 1959, 1968), and his phylogenetic proposals have been supported recently by studies on adult and larval morphology, as reviewed by Bologna (1991). Morphological and molecular studies of Meloidae (Bologna, 1991a; Pinto & Bologna, 1999, 2002 Bologna & Pinto, 2001, 2002; Bologna et al., 2008b) confirm the monophyly of the tribe Mylabrini. Revisions of the following Mylabrinae genera have been published and should be consulted: Croscherichia Pardo
Alcaide (Bologna and Coco, 1991), Mimesthes Marseul (Bologna, 2000), Actenodia Laporte de Castelnau (Bologna et al., 2008a), Lydoceras Marseul (Bologna et al., 2011), Pseudabris Fairmaire (Pan et al., 2013).

Dundadela

description: Dundadela Zahradník & Trýzna gen. nov.
(Figs 1–16)
Type species. Dundadela maculata sp. nov., by original designation.
Placement. Subfamily Anobiinae, tribe incertae sedis.
Name derivation. Dundadela, gender feminine, dedicated to our colleague and friend Mr. Radek Dunda (*30 June, 1969–†30 March, 2020), specialist in the family Attelabidae (Coleoptera: Curculionoidea) (Figs 20–21).
Description. Male. Body long oval, mostly parallel (Fig. 1). Head (Figs 2–3, 7, 10) forward oriented (probably semi-prognathous in natural position), slightly transverse convex, eyes large, globular, glabrous.Antennae (Figs 1, 8, 12, 14) with eleven antennomeres. Flagellum filiform, antennomere VIII strongly transverse, last three antennomeres strongly enlarged, IX–X strongly pectinate, XI simple and robust. Pronotum (Fig. 4) transverse, slightly concave dorsally, without central bump; pronotal lateral margin only partly visible, on posterior part invisible (in dorsal view). Elytra (Fig. 1) parallel, without distinct humeral angles, with four very fine and indistinct longitudinal carinae (not visible on Fig. 1), equally distributed on elytra. Legs (Fig. 1) short and slim. Anterior coxae (Fig. 10) very close, touching, mesocoxae (Fig. 9) very similar. Metacoxae (Fig. 9) slightly separated. Metathoracic ventrite (Fig. 9) with short longitudinal depression, posteriorly sharpened. All coxae conical. Claws (Fig. 6) widely spaced, not bifurcate at apex. Mesosternum (Fig. 9) posteriorly without hook, metasternum without tarsal grooves. Abdomen (Fig. 11) with five ventrites, I with short blunt wide promontory in middle. Aedeagus symmetrical (Figs 13, 16).
Differential diagnosis. Dundadela gen. nov. differs from other genera of subfamily Anobiinae by antennal structure—no other genus of this subfamily has antennomeres IX and X pectinate. Only genus Megorama Fall, 1905 (subfamily Xyletininae) has similar structure of antennae, but it has a distinctly hypognathous (orthognathous) head. Megorama (unlike Dundadela) lacks elytral carinae.
Distribution. So far known only from Madagascar.

description: Bicaubittacus burmanus (Tjeder, 1974), comb. nov.
Bittacus burmanus Tjeder, 1974: 188. Type locality: Kambaiti, Myanmar (formerly Burma).
Diagnosis. Bicaubittacus burmanus is similar to Bi. mengyangicus sp. nov. in appearance, but can be recognized by the male epandrial appendage forked apically into a pair of slender prongs, similar in size in lateral view; distal prolongations of male gonocoxites without long, thick setae; cerci pointed apically; gonostylus short.
Remarks. We failed to obtain the specimens of this species. The diagnosis is written according to the original description of Tjeder (1974).
Distribution. Myanmar (Kambaiti).

Solenopsis occipitalis Santschi 1911: 83. Syntype workers, TUNISIA: Ain-Draham and Le Kef (Normand) (NHMB) [examined].
Worker. TL 1.30–1.71, HL 0.41–0.48, HW 0.38–0.41, SL 0.26–0.29, PL 0.12–0.17, PW 0.12–0.15, PPL 0.09–0.11, PPW 0.14–0.15, EL 0.04–0.05, AL 0.44–0.49, SI 68–70, CI 85–95 (4 measured).
Head rectangular, a little longer than broad. Occipital margin straight with rounded posterior corners. Clypeal carinae divergent anteriorly and running to the margin where they project as a pair of well developed teeth. Eyes with a single facet situated at the anterior third of the head sides. Mandibles armed with four teeth. Mesosoma quite short, promesonotum convex. Metanotal groove distinct. Propodeum short, high and clearly convex, with the basal face making a continuous arc with the declivity. Petiole narrow and little higher than long. A smooth and shining species. Pilosity pale, fine and abundant. Body colour yellow. Masticatory margin of the mandibles and the first gastral tergite dark brown; antennae and legs yellow.
Santschi described the eyes of this species as consisting of three facets, but only a single, oval and relatively large facet was seen in all type workers. In addition he mentioned that the masticatory margin of the mandibles, the occiput, petiole and the first gastral tergite were dark brown; with the antennae and legs yellow. We find this species is unicolorous yellow except for the masticatory margin of the mandibles and the first gastral tergite which are pale brown. It is recorded for the first time from Egypt. A single worker was collected from Mafareq (South Sinai) but unfortunately it was damaged after being photographed.
Material examined. 1 worker, Mafareq (South Sinai), 5.III.1998; 28.42: N; 33.19:E. (M. R. Sharaf).

(Fig. 7)
Bittacus longiprocessus Huang & Hua, 2005: 395. Type locality: Fujian, China.
Diagnosis. Bicaubittacus longiprocessus can be readily separated from its congeners by its gonocoxites, which are not prolonged noticeably backwards from their middle part, and by having the apex of the upper branch of the proctiger rounded, not emarginated into L-shape.
Abdomen of female yellowish brown. Terga III–VII each with a narrow black antecosta; sternum VII trapeziform, anterior margin narrower than the posterior one (Fig. 7 E). In lateral aspect, subgenital plate narrow basally, gradually broader towards apex; dorsal margin curved smoothly and not deeply emarginate (Fig. 7 E); in ventral aspect, distal margin narrowly prolonged caudad; the two halves separated to the very apex by a membrane (Fig. 7 D); membranous area broad basally, subtriangular in shape. Tergum X pale sordid yellow, extending very slightly ventrad; supra- and subanale yellowish brown, truncate apically (Figs 7 F, G). Cerci short, slightly longer than subanale (Fig. 7 G).
Material examined: Holotype ɗ, Nanjing, Fujian Province, 9.V.1995, coll. Jiang Fan [NWAU]. 1ɗ1Ψ, CHINA: JIANGXI: Ciping, Mt. Jinggangshan, 15.V.1981, coll. Jin et al., preserved in the Shanghai Entomological Museum, Shanghai [SHEM].
Distribution. China (Fujian, Jiangxi).
Remarks. This species previously was known only by the male holotype in the original description (Huang & Hua, 2005). Here we find two additional specimens (one male, one female) from Jiangxi Province. The male genitalia is re-illustrated according to a pinned specimen from Jiangxi (Figs 7 A–C) for more accuracy. The female is described and illustrated here for the first time.

Quadratum

description: Quadratum gen. nov.
Type species: Quadratum glaberi sp. nov.
Body spindle­shaped, shield lobe present, scapular tubercles and setae absent; leg segments normal, coxae with 3 pair of tubercles and setae, genual seta of leg II missing; empodium simple; opisthosoma differentiated into broader dorsal annuli and narrower ventral annuli, dorsum with median furrow, 2nd ventral tubercles and setae (e) absent; coverflap with longitudinal ridges.
Note: This new genus is close to Parinarus Chandrapatya & Boczek, 2000 differing in the absence of opisthonotal second ventral seta (e) and in the usual dorsal shield rear margin, not projecting mesally over the first five dorsal opisthosomal annuli.
Etymology: Quadratum, Latin, meaning “square”. The genus name is neuter gender, and refers to the rectangular shape of the shield.
