(Figs 8–12, Map 1)
Description. Body (Figs 8, 9) length 2.07 mm, width 1.15 mm. Dorsal part of head and pronotum dark brown; elytra, ventral part of body and antennomeres seven, eight and nine dark chestnut brown; legs and two apical antennomeres light chestnut brown; six basal antennomeres yellow. Elytral hairs yellowish gold to brown, lighter hairs forming two or three narrow, poorly defined bands and patches.
Head (Fig. 10) with vertex lacking longitudinal ridge above antennal calli. Frontal ridge acute ventrally, followed by narrow longitudinal ridge beyond anterofrontal ridge into middle of clypeus. Anterofrontal ridge well developed laterally. Head surface densely covered with relatively long, well visible setae.
Pronotum (Fig. 11) 1.32 times wider than long. In lateral view apical part more convex than basal. Lateral margin slightly convex. Anterolateral pore present. Two tall elongate elevations on pronotum. Pronotal punctures large, spaced evenly, distance between them much smaller than diameter of puncture. Elytral punctures spaced close together into striae, interspaces flat. Basal calli well developed, projected. Metatibia without preapical tooth situated before tarsal insertion (Fig. 8).
Median lobe of aedeagus with sides strongly converging apically in ventral view. Apical part without shallow impression. In lateral view, median lobe convex, basally more than apically (Fig. 12).
Female unknown.
Type material. Holotype, 3. Labels: 1) MEXICO: Chiapas:/ 15km E San Cristóbal / 16.74689ºN 92.48985ºW / 2500m, 29-V-2008, sifted/ leaf litter, cloud forest/ LLAMA 08 Wm-A-05-1; 2) Holotype Andersonaltica elongata des. Linzmeier & Konstantinov 2011 (CMNC).
Etymology. The specific name, derived from the Latin elongatus, refers to the elongate beetle body.
Remarks. Andersonaltica elongata is more similar to A. tuberosa than to other species of the genus. It can be separated from A. tuberosa by the following characters: elytral interspaces flat; median lobe of aedeagus with sides strongly converging apically in ventral view; apical part without shallow impression; median lobe of aedeagus more convex basally than apically in lateral view.

Figs 3, 17
Diagnosis
Together with C. lehibemavo sp. nov. and C. saha sp. nov., Chimarra cebegepi sp. nov. forms a subgroup of three closely related species. C. lehibemavo sp. nov. is characterized by the short internal sclerite of the phallic apparatus (Fig. 2 D–E), this latter is long and apically curved in the other two species. C. cebegepi sp. nov. differs from C. saha sp. nov. by the distal margin of the inferior appendage slightly concave and regularly rounded in lateral view (Fig. 3A). Moreover C. saha sp. nov. is characterized by the lateral deflection of the dorsal lamina of the phallotheca (Fig. 13E), which is more developed than in C. cebegepi sp. nov. (Fig. 3E).
Etymology
The name is designed from the acronym of the Centre de Biologie pour la Gestion des Populations.

Andersonaltica valens

description: Andersonaltica valens Linzmeier & Konstantinov, new species
(Figs 38–42, Map 1)
Description. Body (Figs 38, 39) length 1.82 mm, width 1.12 mm. General body color dark chestnut brown. Dorsal part of head and pronotum entirely dark chestnut brown. Mouth parts, procoxae, last abdominal ventrite, and basal calli on elytra lighter. Pronotum slightly darker. Elytral hairs yellowish gold to brown, lighter hairs forming two or three narrow, poorly defined bands and patches.
Head (Fig. 40) with vertex with slightly zigzagged longitudinal ridge above antennal calli. Frontal ridge acute ventrally, followed by narrow longitudinal ridge beyond anterofrontal ridge into middle of clypeus. Anterofrontal ridge well developed laterally. Head surface densely covered with relatively long, well visible setae (Fig. 40).
Pronotum (Fig. 42) 1.36 times wider than long, abruptly constricted near its base. In lateral view apical part more convex than basal. Lateral margin slightly convex. Anterolateral pore present. Two elongate elevations on pronotum tall. Pronotal punctures large, spaced evenly, distance between them much smaller than diameter of puncture. Elytral punctures placed close together into striae, interspaces convex. Space between scutellar row and first row of punctures less convex than space between first and second rows. Basal calli well developed, projecting. Metatibia without preapical tooth situated before tarsal insertion.
Median lobe of aedeagus nearly parallel-sided ventrally, with apex narrowing gradually and with ventral groove widening abruptly towards apex. In lateral view, median lobe slightly curved with base and apex bent evenly (Fig. 41).
Female unknown.
Type material. Holotype, 3. Labels: 1) MEXICO: Chiapas, Lagos/ de Montebello, Cinco Lagos/ 1500m, 22.IX.1992, 92-113/ R.S.Anderson, liquidambar/ oak/pine forest litter; 2) Andersonaltica valens des. Linzmeier & Konstantinov 2011 (CMNC).
Etymology. The specific name, derived from the Latin valens, meaning strong, vigorous, refers to strong sculpture on the elytra.
Remarks. Andersonaltica valens is more similar to A. tuberosa than to other species of the genus. It can be separated from A. tuberosa by the following characters: pronotum near its base abruptly constricted; space between scutellar row and first row of punctures less convex than space between first and second rows; median lobe of aedeagus with ventral groove widening abruptly towards apex.

Polietes

description: Polietes Rondani, 1866
Polietes Rondani, 1866: 71. Type species: Musca lardaria Fabricius, 1781.
Diagnosis. Colouration blackish with dense silver pruinosity; wing without maculae. Female with proclinate fronto-orbital seta; parafrons setulose along its entire length; interfrontal seta present; frontal vitta setulose on upper half. Presutural acrostichals developed; 3 postsutural pairs. Dorsocentrals 3+4. Postsutural intra-alars 2- 3; intrapostalar absent. Notopleurals 2 (there is an additional posterior seta in P. domitor (Harris), as in some Mesembrina spp.). Prosternum setulose or bare. Katepisternals 1+1-3. Posterior spiracle usually bare on posterior margin. Vein R4+5 setulose or not dorsally and usually bare ventrally; M straight forward, subparallel to R4+5. Lower calypter glossiform. Subcostal sclerite bare. Calcar strong.
Comments. The monophyly of Polietes was not supported by Nihei and de Carvalho (2007a). Except for Mesembrina, all Muscini genera were nested within Polietes. This genus is traditionally diagnosed and recognized as the only Holarctic genus with glossiform lower calypter and vein M running straight toward the apex of wing, but these are two plesiomorphic non-grouping characters (Nihei & de Carvalho 2007a) that are present in other Muscini genera outside the Holartic Region. A revision and examination of all Polietes species is required before considering the break up of the genus into smaller monophyletic units.
Distribution (11 species). Nearctic, Oriental and Palaearctic.
References. Oriental species: Emden (1965), Xue and Chao (1998); Palaearctic: Hennig (1963a, 1963b), Peris and Llorente (1963), Xue and Chao (1998), Gregor et al. (2002), Shinonaga (2003).

Figs 5, 16
Diagnosis
Chimarra forcellinii sp. nov. is a close relative of C. fenoevo sp. nov. These two species differ by the shape of the inferior appendages (lateral view), L-shaped in C. forcellinii sp. nov. (Fig. 5A), whereas triangular in C. fenoevo sp. nov. (Fig. 4A). Another useful diagnostic character is the maximum width of the phallotheca: that is at the apex in C. fenoevo sp. nov. (Fig. 4D), whereas in C. forcellinii sp. nov. it is in the middle of the tubular part (Fig. 5D).
Etymology
This species is dedicated to Maxence Forcellini in tribute to his work for the aquatic biomonitoring of La Réunion.
