Macrolycus muyuensis sp. nov. (Figs 26, 39, 40, 51)
Type material. Holotype, male, China, Hubei province, Dashennongjia Nature Reserve, Muyu, E slope, 2000 m, 12.–15. vi. 1997, Bolm (LMBC).
Diagnosis. This species is similar to M. gracilis in the shape of the aedeagus, but it differs in the short lamella of the antennomere 3 and the slim narrowed part in the apical portion of the median lobe in ventral view (Figs 40, 51). Additionally, M. muyuensis differs from M. mucronatus by the shape of the antennomere 3 and the relatively straight basal part of the median lobe in lateral view (Figs 39, 51).
Description (holotype). Body small, dark brown, pronotum and elytra dark red (Fig. 26). Head with flat antennal tubercles. Antennae overlapping midlength of elytra when inclined, antennomeres 3–11 lamellate (Fig. 51). Pronotum transverse, nearly trapezoid, anterior angles blunt, posterior angles acute (Fig. 26). Scutellum dark red, parallel-sided, with straight posterior margin. Elytra widened in distal quarter, covered with short, dense, dark red pubescence; elytral costa 2 much stouter than remaining three ones; costa 3 inconspicuous posteriorly. Aedeagus without paramerae, median lobe slender, slightly curved at base; subapical portion widened, gradually constricted distad; apical part tube-shaped, with prominent rounded lamella at apex (Figs 39, 40).
Measurements. Length 10.35 mm, width at humeri 2.20 mm, pronotum length/width 1.55/1.80 mm.
Distribution. China (Hubei), known only from the type locality.
Etymology. The specific name refers to the type locality (Muyu) in the province of Hubei, China.

Macrolycus yunnanus

description: Macrolycus yunnanus Kazantsev, 2001
Macrolycus yunnanus Kazantsev, 2001: 100.
Material examined. China, 1 male, Yunnan, Jizushan, 25.58N 100.21E, 2500–2700 m, 6.–10. vii. 1994, Vit Kuban (LMBC); 1 male, Yunnan, Jizushan, 2800 m, 30. v.–3. vi. 1993, Bolm (SYSM).
Distribution. China (Yunnan, Sichuan).
Remark: These two specimens differ from M. oreophilus mentioned above by the relatively shorter antennal lamellae. According to Kazantsev’s description, M. yunnanus differs from M. oreophilus by the coloration, the shape of antennomeres and presence of secondary costae, but no obvious difference can be found in aedeagus, only ventral cavity is slightly different. Additionally, both species were recorded in nearby locations. As the coloration, the presence of the secondary costae and the shape of the ventral cavity of the median lobe are unreliable characters when defining species, further study will be necessary to confirm the validity of both species.

Remark. Kazantsev (1993) mentioned the nominotypic M. testaceicollis testaceicollis and synonymized M. testaceicollic
differens to the nominotypic subspecies, but omitted M. testaceicollis notaticollis from his work. We have studied speci-
mens from the MHNP compared with the type by Kazantsev and identified as " M. notaticollis " (the type cannot be found
in the collection of the museum). We confirmed that the M. notaticollis is a valid species and as we have not found any
information about the status of this name in the literature, we elevate the subspecies M. testaceicollis notaticollis to the
species level status here.

Otostigmus (O.) astenus: Schileyko, 2007: 78; Otostigmus (O.) astenus: Lewis, 2010: 9.
Material. E Indonesia, West Papua Province, S Bird’s Neck, Kaimana 2–4 km NE, road from Kaimana to Bitsyaru bay, 03°39’26”S, 133°46’21”E, 150 m, primeval lowland rainforest on limestone, 1 ad, 20.09.2010, leg. M. Kalninsh, No. 7507.
Range. According to Lewis (2010) and Bonato et al. (2016): Madagascar (introduced), eastwards from Cambodia to Oceania namely: Vietnam; Taiwan; The Philippines; Central and East Indonesia; Papua New Guinea; Solomon Islands; Australia; New Caledonia; Samoa Islands; Marianas; Caroline Islands (Yap); Tonga Islands; Fiji Islands; Hawaiian Islands.
Herewith, we add to the list the villages Khoti and Sissu (Keylong City) in Himachal Pradesh State, India which are the most western records of the species worldwide.
Remarks. The specimen can be recognized by the specific shape of the forcipular tooth-plate (Fig. 10). It is in accord with Lewis’ (2010: 9) description and drawings of O. astenus this including the presence of tarsal spur of ultimate legs, a character which is generally rare in Scolopendridae. Our specimen differs insignificantly from Lewis’ (2009) description in having two tarsal spurs on legs 1–3 (Lewis recorded legs 1–4(17)) and well-developed (vs “small”) spines at ultimate prefemur (Fig. 11). Additional material (No. 6351, 6352, 6390, 7009) shows these spines well-developed as well.
Further material of O. astenus in the ZMMU collection (22 specimens) shows considerable variability in the structure of the spiracles (size, shape, depth of atrium). Comparing to the North Indian (No. 7009), Hawaiian (No. 6352) and Vietnamese (No. 6390) material the West Papuan specimen has considerably reduced spiracle atrium (Fig. 12), a condition observed also in exemplars from Tonga (No. 6351). According to our own experience the spiracles with deep atrium are more common in Otostigmus.
The accessory spines in the studied exemplar are of the usual shape, while in the specimen from Hawaii they are much enlarged (nearly triangular) and short.

Type-species. Branchiostoma lithobioides Newport, 1845 (by subsequent designation).
Range. Indo-Australia, Ethiopia, Neotropical region.
Remarks. Koch (1983) compared the size of spiracles of Rhysida and Ethmostigmus. At page 836 he stated that anteriormost spiracle in the former is considerably shorter than half of the length of the lateral margin of respective tergite. However, some of examined adults of R. l. longipes (No. 6633, 7003) have the spiracles of the 3rd body segment at least as long as ½ of the length of corresponding tergite (Fig. 18).

Material. Papua New Guinea, Madang Province, Madang District, [environs of Madang] Nagada, 2 (s)ad [spm 1, 2 (larger one)], 20.08.1998, leg. P. Drozd, No. 7091.
Range. According to Bonato et al. (2016) the species is known from Sudan, Congo, Sri Lanka, Cuba, El Salvador, Guatemala. Attems (1930) recorded it also from Sunda Islands, India, Myanmar, The Philippines and Venezuela. Waldock & Lewis (2014) recorded R. immarginata from Christmas Island and wrote [quote] “Although R. immarginata appears to be very widely distributed, the nominate subspecies has only been recorded from Kalimantan, Mentawai Islands, Sumatra (Lewis, 2001), Uruguay, Kedah (Malaysia) and Taiwan (Chao, 2008)”. Gravely (1910) recorded this species from Nepal. We add to the above list Papua New Guinea.
Remarks. Both specimens from Papua New Guinea have only tergite 21 marginate (diagnostic character of this species). They conform well to the descriptions of Attems (1930) and Waldock & Lewis (2014) except for the length of antennae, which reach posterior margin of tergite 3 (vs 5/6) when reflexed. However, Koch (1985: 212) already recorded that the antennae could be shorter in specimens from Borneo.
The studied exemplars demonstrate high degree of resemblance with the material from Nepal including keycharacters such as the number of glabrous basal antennal articles (three), number and distribution of leg spurs (legs 1–2/3 with 1 tibial, legs 1–16/17 with 2 tarsal and legs 20 with none), spinulation of prefemur of ultimate legs (3–4 spines in total) and shape + spinulation of coxopleural processes (Fig. 19). The latter character accords well to Koch’s (1985) scheme (p. 207). Also, the shape of spiracles (Fig. 20) is identical in all examined specimens.
The main difference between the Papuan and Nepalese exemplars is the length of antennae, which are longer in the latter and reach the anterior margin of tergite 6 when folded backward.
Spm 2 has the second maxillary pretarsus with only one, very thin and long (about 2/3 of pretarsus) accessory spine, situated just below the pretarsus, and closely attached to it; in spm 1 this accessory spine is not well visible. The same accessory spine is well observed in both additional exemplars (Fig. 21); this character has not been recorded for R. immarginata before.

India: Tamil Nadu, Assam, Madras; W Nepal (Annapurna Reservation Area); Bhutan; Sri Lanka; China; Myanmar; Cambodia; Laos; Thailand; Vietnam; Singapore; Taiwan; Philippines; Peninsular Malaysia, Borneo Island (Sarawak); Indonesia: Java Island, Sulawesi Island, Maluku Islands, Raja Ampat Islands, West Papua; Papua New Guinea: Madang Province, Bismarck Archipelago; Australia: Northern Territory (Keep River National Park), Western Australia (McDermid Rock, Kimberley, Banjiwarn, Goldsworthy); Solomon Islands; Polynesia: Tahiti, Society Islands, Tuvalu Islands; Turkey (?); Africa: Algeria; Ethiopia; Sudan; Tanzania; Gambia (Bijilo Forest Park); Angola; Malawi; Congo; Zanzibar Archipelago; Fernando Po Island.
Remarks. Ethmostigmus relictus was described by Chamberlin (1944b) from “«Luid[?]», Dutch New Guinea [West Papua Province]” on the basis of one specimen. According to the author the species is morphologically close to E. rubripes in the form of the “pseudopleural [=coxopleural] process” but differs from the latter “in having but two spines above [=dorsal] with these low and blunt, almost abortive. It differs also in lacking a tarsal spine [=spur] on the 20th pair of legs”. All these “differences” fall well within the intraspecific variability of E. r. rubripes, so this dubious form has not been included in the list of species. According to Bonato et al. (2016) E. relictus is known also from Java Island (Indonesia) but we were not able to find where this record comes from.

Description. The whole body covered by setae of various length; setae are considerably more numerous at forcipules, legs, margins of tergites and sternites, coxopleuron and ultimate sternite (Fig. 54).
Head capsule with thin but well-developed complete paramedian sutures diverging frontwards, posterior margin covered by tergite 1 (Fig. 55). Clypeus with 2 setose clypeal plates: larger and well-limited rhomboid anterior one (which bears 3 setae) and very undefinitely developed minute posterior one (Fig. 56). Labrum with 1 tooth.
Anterior margin of forcipular coxosternite with 5+5 marginal setae plus 3+3 setae on the coxosternite. Tarsungula very thin and long.
Tergite 1 without sutures, tergites (6)7–19 with paramedian sulci and sutures (the latter are visible from a certain angle of illumination). Sternites: transverse ridge between the coxae quite poorly developed (Fig. 57), trigonal sutures well recognizable at sternites 2–6. Katopleure not divided vertically; spiracles oval.
Legs 3–30 with definitely divided tarsus (Fig. 54), accessory spines well-developed.
Coxopleural pore field consists of ca 40 pores of various sizes and is bordered posteriorly by narrow poreless area (Fig. 54).
Remarks. The studied specimen resembles C. (T.) pictus Ribaut, 1923 in most characters except for the lack of dark pigmentation of tergites (Fig. 55), a character which is known to vary a lot in Cryptops. Maurienne et al. (2011) considered C. pictus as a species restricted to New Caledonia stating (p. 71): “ Cryptops pictus is more widely distributed than is represented by our sampling”. This specimen has sternal transverse thickening between the coxae of legs less developed than in C. (T.) spinipes (Fig. 57), thus more resembling the sternal transverse suture of Cryptops s.str. The body and legs are less setose compared with C. (T.) spinipes.
As the ultimate legs of the studied specimen are missing and important taxonomic characters are thus lost its true identity remains uncertain until further material is examined.

description: 3.1. Gracilipalpe group
Diagnosis. Body convex, glabrous, sometimes with sparse irregular setation on pronotum and elytra; apical segment of maxillary palp twice to three times as long as preceeding segment; anterior angles of pronotum slightly or strongly protruded anteriad; lateral margin of pronotum and latero-apical margins of elytra with more or less regular and uniform small crenulation; each elytron with three vague to distinct longitudinal elevations.
Species included: A. gracilipalpe (Champion, 1920), A. daliense sp.n., A. nivale sp.n.
Remarks. By the presence of distinct middle elevations on head and pronotum, crenuliform edge of the pronotum and latero-apical margins of elytra, by the protruded apical angles of pronotum and wide semicircular notch of the head, species of the gracilipalpe group are similar to Himalayan species of Anthobium (A. altivagans (Cameron, 1941), A. monticola (Cameron, 1924), A. rugosum (Champion, 1925), etc.), and the Central Asian A. reflexum (Reitter, 1891) with similar indistinct and very tangled longitudinal rows of the elytral punctation as in some western Palaearctic species. From all these species, members of the gracilipalpe group can be distinguished by the larger and more elongated body with significantly stronger body sculpture and convexity, more or less irregular punctation of head and pronotum, sometimes with very deep impressions in head and pronotum and markedly conspicuous longitudinal elevations on the elytra similar to that of some species of the genus Deinopteroloma Jansson, 1947 (Smetana 1985, Shavrin & Smetana 2016), by the presence (some species) of very sparse irregular erect setation on the forebody, by the elongated antennomeres, apical segment of maxillary palp and legs, as well as by the larger crenulation of more explanated lateral portions of the pronotum. In general appearance the species are more similar to species of morchella and nigrum groups (see below). From morchella group they differ by the finer punctation of the forebody, moderately narrower body, by the shorter apical segment of maxillary palp, relatively smaller crenulation of lateral sides of the pronotum and more elongated elytra. From nigrum group they differ by more convex, narrower forebody and not flattened crenulation of lateral sides of the pronotum and by the developed relief of the surface of elytra.

description: 3.2. Morchella group
Diagnosis. Body moderately convex, very glossy, glabrous; pronotum and elytra with coarse, large and deep punctation; apical segment of maxillary palp three to four times as long as preceeding segment; pronotum markedly narrowed from middle posteriad, with anterior angles indistinctly protruded anteriad, lateral margin with large or small irregular crenulation; elytra about as long as wide, markedly widened posteriad, each elytron with indistinct irregular elevations between punctures or with three indistinct longitudinal elevations.
Species included: A. hydraenoides sp.n., A. morchella sp.n., A. puetzi sp.n.
Remarks. By the body size, elongated mouthparts and legs, species of the morchella group are similar to those of gracilipalpe and nigrum groups. From gracilipalpe group they differ by more glossy body, less deep impressions on head and pronotum, wider forebody with apical angles of pronotum indistinctly protruded anteriad, and in some species by the characteristic irregular elevations between punctures on the elytra. From nigrum group they differ by more convex body and by the presence of small or elongated longitudinal elevations on the elytra. From both groups they differ by the absence of erect elongated irregular setation on the forebody, by the stronger punctation and sculpture of the forebody, markedly more elongated maxillary palpomeres and larger lateral crenulation of the pronotum.

Body convex or slightly flattened, very glossy, glabrous, with irregular, very sparse erect setation on forebody; apical segment of maxillary palp two and half times as long as preceeding segment (Fig. 13); lateral margins of pronotum with smoothed small crenulation; elytra without elevations, gradually widened apicad or moderately subparallelsided.
Species included: A. nigrum (Cameron, 1924), A. anishchenkoi sp.n., A. conjunctum sp.n., A. densepunctatum sp.n., A. ivani sp.n.
Remarks. Species of the nigrum group differ from those of gracilipalpe and morchella groups by the sparse erect setation of forebody, by the flattened crenulation of lateral margins of pronotum, and by the smooth surface of elytra without elevations. The species may be easily distinguished by the shape of the aedeagus.
