Differential diagnosis. The new species from the north of the Balearic Island of Mallorca belongs to the subgenus Acalles s. str. It is, from a morphological and molecular perspective, closely related to Acalles breiti A. & F. Solari, 1909 and should be compared with the lectotype of this species (a male, designated by Stüben 1999, coll. Solari: Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Milano) from the type locality Valldemossa—only 6 km east of the type locality of the new species (Son Coll):

description: Arthropeina apomorphies
The conical shape of the antenna, with flagellomeres 7 and 8 together, forming a stylus (Figs. 2–7) that is as long as or longer than the remainder of the flagellum has been proposed as synapomorphic for the genus (Artigas & Papavero, 1991; Woodley, 2011). This differs from the combined length of flagellomeres 7 and 8, which are shorter than the remaining flagellomeres in Solva and do not form a stylus (Fig. 1). In Arthropeina, the flagellomeres differ from each other in size and shape (Figs. 2–7), while in Solva (Fig. 1; Daniels, 1976, fig. 3) most flagellomeres are similar in size and shape (except for flagellomere 8 which is slightly narrowed towards apex). This is another feature that may be synapomorphic for Arthropeina. A more detailed comparison between additional species of Solva and other xylomyids would make this statement more robust.
Papavero & Artigas (1991) proposed that the spermathecal capsule formed by three “layers” or coils—based only on their examination of Arthropeina fulva —is apormophic in species of the genus. This condition is actually shown here to be autapomorphic for A. pseudofulva (Fig. 53), while A. fulva has the spermatheca formed by two coils (Fig. 18). The coiled spermathecal capsule, as described by Papavero & Artigas (1971) (independently of the number of coils), seems to be a synapomorphy for a small clade within Arthropeina including A. fulva, A. colombiana and A. pseudofulva. The “remnant of middle spermathecal duct” (Papavero & Artigas, 1991) certainly corresponds to the spermathecal duct (e.g., Fig. 56) cut during preparation, as already stated by Woodley (2011: 422). The statement that the valves of the spermathecal ducts (Papavero & Artigas, 1991) are an apomorphic condition in the genus, hence, as commented by Woodley (2011), is not confirmed. Other dipteran families also have this condition (see e.g., Artigas, 1971). A wider comparison with other groups of lower brachycerans would be necessary to properly establish the level of origin of this feature—a single origin with losses or independent origins in different families. Additionally, the genital fork in Arthropeina presents a unique condition in Xylomyidae at the level of current knowledge, the membranous lobes (e.g., Fig. 21), not found in other xylomyid genera.
A careful morphological study of Solva species would certainly help to better understand of the evolution of features varying within Arthropeina and furnish important evidence towards the construction of a detailed phylogenetic study of the family.

Greater Guinea Pig
Cavia magna
French: Grand Cobaye / German: Riesenmeerschweinchen / Spanish: Cobaya grande
Taxonomy. Cavia magna Ximenez, 1980,
“en las orillas del arroyo Imbé, municipio de Tramandai, estado de Rio Grande del Sur, Brasil.”
This species is monotypic.
Distribution. SE Brazil, in Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul states (N to 29° S, 49° W) and E Uruguay in the Rocha Department (S to 34° S, 54° W).
Descriptive notes. Head-body 220-345 mm, ear 22-32 mm, hindfoot 46-57 mm; weight 440-840 g. The Greater Guinea Pig is the largest species of Cavia. Itis agouti with shiny black streaking dorsally, darkest on top of head and back. Venteris reddish. Enlarged membranes between digits form webbed feet.
Habitat. Wetlands and coastal marshes along the south-eastern coast of Brazil. Greater Guinea Pigs make and use complex systems of tunnels in the vegetation.
Food and Feeding. The Greater Guinea Pig is herbivorous and consumes grasses and aquatic vegetation.
Breeding. Reproduction of the Greater Guinea Pig occurs year-round, and gestation is c.64 days. Females can produce three litters/year and reach sexual maturity at 30-45 days old. Young are highly precocial at birth.
Activity patterns. There is no specific information available for this species, but the Greater Guinea Pig is likely diurnal and active year-round.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. Male Greater Guinea Pigs have extremely large home ranges (11,830 m?), ¢.50% larger than females (7670 m?). Home ranges overlap, and there is no evidence ofterritoriality. Social system is described as solitary and likely promiscuous because reproduction is not synchronized among females.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Greater Guinea Pig has a broad distribution and large estimated population size.

description: Aleuroplatus alcocki (Peal)
Aleurodes alcocki Peal, 1903: 74.
Aleuroplatus alcocki (Peal) Quaintance & Baker, 1914: 98.
Peal (1903) described this species from specimens collected in Bihar and Calcutta (Kolkata), India on banyan (Ficus indica) and Ficus religiosa. Singh (1931) provided a description of the immatures and adults based on specimens collected on F. religiosa in Pusa, Bihar. The species has also been reported from South India, Madras (Chennai), on F. religiosa (David & Subramanian, 1976). The original description states “puparium color yellow”, but the syntypes on which the species was based (Mound & Halsey, 1978) cannot be traced. These specimens are presumed to be lost permanently, and under these circumstances, the Code of Zoological Nomenclature (Article 75) permits the designation of a Neotype to act as the name bearer for a species. In accordance with this provision, a more recently collected specimen identified as A. alcocki is here designated as the neotype for this species.
This species (Figs 2–3, 15–19) is readily distinguished from other members of the genus in India by the paler brown cuticle of the puparia, with an elevated cephalic longitudinal moulting suture keel (Figs 2, 16). However, this character was found to vary within populations. Also, the circular vasiform orifice observed with a comb of teeth on the inner posterior margin (Figs 3, 18).
Material studied. Neotype puparium here designated, India, Tamil Nadu, Madras, on Ficus religiosa, 31 July 1971 (B. V. David). The central left puparium among 15 puparia on one slide is the neotype (Indian Agricultural Research Institute, registration number 109/8/8/1); the remaining 14 puparia on this slide represent the same species. One slide bearing the same data as the neotype is in BMNH (personal comm. with Jon Martin). Other material: India, Maharastra, Silvassa, Khanwell, 1 puparium on Grewia sp., S.

Differential diagnosis. The new species from the Canary Island La Gomera belongs to the subgenus Origoacalles. It is, from a morphological and genetic perspective, closely related to Acalles pilula Wollaston, 1864 and should be compared with species from La Palma (type locality) and El Hierro. Acalles pilula also occurs very rarely in the north of Tenerife (digit 43), but is not identical with Acalles pilula var. seminulum Wollaston, 1864 here, which was described also from Tenerife (designation of lectotype see Stüben 2000c, page 84-85). This name is a junior synonym of Acalles globulipennis Wollaston, 1854, a species from Tenerife, Gran Canaria and Madeira (digit 42), which prefers the transition zone between laurel forest and thermophilic brushwood, and can also be found in the low-lying areas near the north coast of Portugal (own records, Stüben, Behne & Bahr 2003).

Aleuroplatus cinnamomi Jesudasan & David, 1991: 282.
Although synonymised with Aleuroplatus pectiniferus by Martin (1999), this species is here considered valid. The holotype is a parasitized puparium, but the species differs from A. pectiniferus by the presence of three pores and associated porettes on the median area of the abdominal segments I–VI (Figs 4, 6, 24, 25). This pattern of pores and associated porettes was constant in the the puparium of the paratype specimen examined from IARI. In contrast, the puparia of A. pectiniferus have only one pair of geminate pores on the median area of these segments. Also the subdorsal and submarginal tubercular processes are much longer in A. cinnamomi, and the marginal teeth are triangular whereas they are conical in A. pectiniferus.
Material studied. India: holotype puparium, on Cinnamomum sp., Tamil Nadu, Kallar (the Nilgiris) 20.vi.1985, R.W.A. Jesudasan (IARI, Reg. No. 109/8/8/5). One paratype puparium (parasitoid pupal case inside), data same as holotype (IARI, Reg. No. 4/25/20).

(Figs 3D, 4D, 5A, B, 6)
Holotype: • ♂ CAMEROON, Buea, Mount Cameroon 12.1994 Leg.: S. Collins, gen. prep. SAFI00224. Deposited in ABRI.
Description. Forewing length: ca. 22.2 mm. Wingspan: ca. 38.5 mm. Thegeneral appearance isidentical tothat of S. subtumescens and S. salonga (Figs 5A, B).
Male genitalia. Size and general structure of male genitalia like that of S. salonga. Uncus broad, its length half of that of valva. Sub-unci long and bold-strong. Subscaphium prominent, rather broad, its length reaches the length of subunci (Fig 3D). Valva elongate, rather slender, particularly its basal half, broadening strongly towards its broadest point in the outer third (Fig. 4D). Dorsal edge strongly rounded, ventral one slightly curved inward. Anterior end of aedeagus acute, with a long and narrow tip.
Female. Unknown.
Differential diagnosis. The appearance of the holotype is identical to males of S. subtumescens and the newly described S. salonga. They differ in features of the male genitalia. The subunci and subscaphium of S. buea are much broader and the valva much more slender in lateral view compared to the other two species, particularly in the basal half. S. moyambina has a more prominent streak at the end of discal cell.
Etymology. Anoun in apposition. Gender feminine. The species is named after the city of Buea at the foothills of Mount Cameroon. Buea is a famous locality of historic butterfly research and currently the University of Buea is one of the Central African strongholds of wildlife and natural science education.
Distribution. Known only from the type locality on Mount Cameroon, Cameroon (Fig. 6).
Remark. The holotype of S. buea came to the authors’ attention during the examination of Stempfferia specimens for comparison with the above-described S. salonga in the ABRI collection. It was first suspected that it might be conspecific with S. subtumescens, assessed from the relative proximity between localities of the two (Fig. 6). However, the genitalia of S. buea differ from those of rest of the species in the group which rules out conspecificity.

Northern Mountain Cavy
Mucrocavia niata
French: Cobaye de Bolivie / German: Nordliches Zwergmeerschweinchen / Spanish: Cuy de los Andes
Other common names: Andean Mountain Cavy
Taxonomy. Cavia niata Thomas, 1898,
“Esperanza, a ‘tambo’in the neighbourhood of Mount Sahama, Bolivia...at an altitude of 4000 metres in the ‘Puna’ region,” La Paz, Bolivia.
Two subspecies are recognized.
Subspecies and Distribution.
M.n.niataThomas,1898—borderareasbetweenWBolivia(SWLaPazandNWOrurodepartments)andNEChile(TarapacaRegion).
M. m. pallidior Thomas, 1902 — Oruro and N Potosi departments, SW Bolivia.
Descriptive notes. Head-body 190-200 mm, ear 13-22 mm, hindfoot 34-41 mm; weight 380 g. Greatest length of skull reported for the subspecies pallidiorwas 46-5 mm. The Northern Mountain Cavy is similar in appearance to the Southern Mountain Cavy (M. australis). Dorsum is pale yellowish buff; face, cheeks, and upper surface offeet are whitish buff; and venteris whitish buffy.
Habitat. Boggy areas in Chile to sandy,salt flats in Bolivia at elevations of 3700-4000 m. At both areas, Northern Mountain Cavies occur in close proximity to burrows of tucotucos (Ctenomys, Ctenomyidae). They also occupy burrows, perhaps those abandoned by tuco-tucos.
Food and Feeding. Northern Mountain Cavies forage on grasses, sedges, aquatic plants (Apiaceae), and herbaceous vegetation (Asteraceae); they eat Peruvian feather grass (Stipa ichu, Poaceae) in Bolivia.
Breeding. Occasional observations of pregnant Northern Mountain Cavies are made in November (Bolivia) and pregnant and lactating females in February (Chile).
Activity patterns. There is no specific information available for this species, but the Northern Mountain Cavy is reportedly active from dawn to dusk.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. Observations suggest that Northern Mountain Cavies occur in multimale-multifemale colonies of up to 15 individuals. They appearto be highly territorial and aggressive, and they give alarm calls when threatened.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Distribution of the Northern Mountain Cavy is large, and populations appear to be healthy.

The male collected from PFR (Figs 1–3) appears to be morphologically more similar to Macroxiphus sumatranus sumatranus (Haan, 1843) than Macroxiphus sumatranus siamensis Helfert & Sänger, 1995 by the shape of the titillators with its sclerites more elongated and curved (instead of right-angled) (Figs 3D, 3E); but the shape of the cercus is intermediate between the nominal subspecies from Indonesia and latter subspecies from Thailand (Figs 3A–C). Our male specimen has 108 teeth on the left tegmen, which is also intermediate between the two subspecies. Furthermore, the calling song of the male is more similar to that of the nominal subspecies. These variations suggest that characters used to define the subspecies may need to be reconsidered with the aid of examining more specimens from different parts of their distributions.
Ecology. Adult males, females and juveniles were found dwelling or hiding among dried ginger foliage (Figs 1, 4).
Type locality. INDONESIA: Sumatra: Padang
Distribution. INDONESIA (Sumatra); PENINSULAR MALAYSIA (Johor State: PFR) [new]
Calling song (1♁, 28.3°C) (Fig. 5). The calling song is made up of a fairly isolated echeme, each consisting of two closely-spaced syllables. Each echeme has an average duration of 0.35±0.02 s (0.33–0.37 s). The first syllable has an average duration of 18.7±0.9 ms (17.6–19.9 ms) and an average period of 0.15±0.01 s (0.14–0.16 s). The second syllable has an average duration of 18.9±1.2 ms (17.8–20.7 ms). The interval between the two syllables has an average duration of 0.13±0.01 s (0.11–0.14 s). The call spectrum is broad-based and has a peak frequency of 11.7±1.0 kHz (10.8–13.4 kHz).
The calling song of the male from PFR consists of two syllables, similar to that of Macroxiphus sumatranus sumatranus (recorded from Maninjau from West Sumatra), whereas that of Macroxiphus sumatranus siamensis (recorded from Ulu Gombak in Selangor and Surat Thani in Thailand) typically consists of four syllables.

Diagnosis (modified after Larsen 2005)
Female
Body almost nearly cylindrical and filiform. Carapace longer than wide. Eye-lobes and visual elements absent. Pleon long, at least 0.4 times the length of pereon, without lateral edges of dorsal shield. Pleonites and pleotelson not fused. Pleotelson with dorsal plate not covering uropods.Antennule with four articles. Antenna with 5–6 articles. Mandibles with pointed molar. Maxillipedal endites without distal setae; palp article 2 without multifurcate seta. Chelipeds attached via lateral sclerite. Pereopods slender, with coxae, dactylus and unguis not fused to a hook. Pleopods absent in female. Uropods long (about 0.5 times as long as pleotelson), biramous; endopod with two articles; exopod with 1–2 articles.
Remarks
Larsen (2005) proposed a diagnosis of the genus and considered the “pleonites long, almost as long as the pereonites and pleotelson”. According to Larsen (2005), Filitanais vulgaris, even with a long pleon, was classified within the genus Collettea because of its broad mandibular molar. Larsen (2005) also wrote that F. curticaudus might not belong to Filitanais because of its short pleon, about 0.4 times the length of the pereon.
On the other hand, Błażewicz-Paszkowycz (2005: key) characterized Filitanais as having a pleon longer than half the length of the pereon, and the pleotelson clearly longer than wide. Our examination of the six species of the genus, however, revealed that the pleon of F. moskalevi is only 0.4 times the length of the pereon, which casts doubt on the inclusion of this species within the genus. Alternatively, we propose to change the diagnosis of Filitanais as having a pleon at least 0.4 times the length of the pereon.

Peracca macritchiensis Tan & Ingrisch, 2014: 553 —Tan, 2017: 68; Tan et al., 2023: 6 (bioacoustics)
Specimens examined. PENINSULAR MALAYSIA: Johor State: PFR • 1♁; Sisek Trail; N1.82768, E103.83324, 71.6± 8.2 m.a.s.l.; 19 August 2023, 20h24; among rattan leaves (Fig. 6); coll. M. K. Tan, Amira A. Muhammad & N. Ashikin Abdullah; PANTI.23.47 (ZRC)
Remarks. Material from PFR represents a new locality record after Singapore and Tioman Island (Gorochov, 2011; Tan & Ingrisch, 2014). With the new material from PFR, we found that the cercus morphology of Peracca macritchiensis is indistinguishable with that of Peracca tiomani from Pulau Tioman (Gorochov, 2011, 2015) (Fig. 7). Gorochov (2015) postulates that P. macritchiensis could be a junior synonym of P. tiomani. However, the calling songs and stridulatory anatomy—both are potentially important species characters—are not yet examined for P. tiomani. Hence, to avoid confusion, we tentatively put these two species as distinct.
Ecology. Similar to observations in Singapore, we found this species mostly dwelling among rattan plants.
Type locality. SINGAPORE
Distribution. PENINSULAR MALAYSIA (Johor State: PFR [new]); SINGAPORE
Calling song (1♁, 30.5°C) (Fig. 8). The calling song of the male recorded from PFR is not different from that recorded from Singapore (see Tan et al., 2023). The calling song consists of a continuous trill. The syllable duration is 7.2±0.3 ms (6.8–7.6 ms) (somewhat shorter than that reported in Tan et al., 2023) and the interval between consecutive syllables is 5.3±0.3 ms (5.0–5.7 ms). The syllable repetition rate is 80±1 syllables s−1 (79–83 syllables s−1), which is very similar to the rate reported in Tan et al. (2023). The call spectrum is broad-based and has a peak frequency of 30.5±0.9 kHz (29.3–31.2 kHz), which is also similar to that reported in Tan et al. (2023).

description: Genus Oxyserphus Masner, 1961
Hormoserphus Townes, 1981, syn. n. (Type species: Proctotrupes clypeatus Ashmead, 1893).
Type species. Proctotrupes maculipennis Cameron, 1888; by original designation.
Remarks. Hormoserphus was established by H. Townes (Townes & Townes 1981) for the North American species Proctotrupes clypeatus Ashmead, 1893 (type species, Fig. 1 C), as well as for Hormoserphus segregatus from Nepal that was described in the same work from a single female mistaken for male. The type species possesses a combination of key features characteristic for members of the genus Oxyserphus: a strong margin of the clypeus is bordered by one or more longitudinal keels; the pterostigma has a short r–rs; and the mandibles are bidentate (Fig. 1 B). Thus, Hormoserphus becomes a junior subjective synonym of Oxyserphus, and a new combination Oxyserphus clypeatus (Ashmead, 1893), comb. n. is established herein.
Henry Townes (Townes & Townes 1981: 114) also mentioned another species— Hormoserphus transgressus — in the diagnosis of the genus Hormoserphus, stating that “in H. transgressus the upper face of tubercle with wrinkling and a marginal carina”. It is unclear what his intention was, since this species was mentioned neither in his key to the species of Hormoserphus nor anywhere else in the book. Nevertheless, the name Hormoserphus transgressus is technically valid, for its publication meets requirements of the Code (ICZN 1999). However, the mentioned characters—the upper face of the tubercle with wrinkling and a marginal carina—might refer only to clypeatus within the Townes’s concept of Hormoserphus. Thus, we propose treating H. transgressus as a junior synonym of Oxyserphus clypeatus (Ashmead, 1893).

Galea comes
French: Cobaye du Jujuy / German: Sidliches Wieselmeerschweinchen / Spanish: Cuy de dientes amarillos meridional
Taxonomy. Galea comes Thomas, 1919,
“Maimara, 2230 m,” Jujuy, Argentina.
Traditionally, G. comes was included as a form of G. musteloides, but J. L.. Dunnum and J. Salazar-Bravo in 2010 elevated it to full species status. Monotypic.
Distribution. Andes of S Bolivia (Tarija Department) and N Argentina (Jujuy Province).
Descriptive notes. Head-body 243 mm, ear 22 mm, hindfoot 39 mm (all from the holotype). No specific data are available for body weight, but it is likely very similar to that of the Lowland Yellow-toothed Cavy (G. leucoblephara). Greatest length of skull is 54 mm. Dorsum of Southern Highland Yellow-toothed Cavy is somewhat mottled, a mix of olive, brown, and tan. Venteris yellow-white. Dorsal and ventral colors are not sharply distinct. Ears are covered with orange hairs, and eye rings are yellow.
Habitat. Rough brambly ground at high elevation in the Andes. Southern Highland Yellow-toothed Cavies might use burrow of tuco-tucos (Ctenomys, Ctenomyidae).
Food and Feeding. There is no information available for this species.
Breeding. There is no information available for this species.
Activity patterns. There is no information available for this species.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. There is no specific information for this species, but Southern Highland Yellow-toothed Cavies might form colonies of many individuals.
Status and Conservation. The Southern Highland Yellow-toothed Cavy has not yet been assessed as a distinct species on The IUCN Red List. At the time of the last [UCN assessment, the Southern Highland Yellow-toothed Cavy was included as a form of G. musteloides, but it was not named or formally assessed as a subspecies.
