NB: Thagata Juwa is a village on the hills south-west of Mount Mooleyit, in the Dawna- Tenassarim Mountains, at 400–500 m asl.
Taxonomic remarks. Mallinella decorata comb. nov. was originally described on the basis of females collected from Tharrawaddy (Thorell 1895). Thorell later described a conspecific male of this species in his subsequent publication (Thorell 1897). Although the males examined were collected from different localities (Tagata by E. Oates; Mooleyit by L. Fea), no significant genitalic differences were detected among them.
Distribution. Along the Burmese coast (Tenassarim: Tagata and Mooleyit) to central Burma (Tharrawaddy, Carin Cheba Bia-po).

Taxonomic remarks. Storena irrorata belongs to an undescribed genus of the subfamily Zodariinae and was described on the basis of an immature spider which was indicated by Thorell (1887) as a juvenile female. Males and conspecific females of S. irrorata were later described in his subsequent work (Thorell 1895) based on the specimens collected in Tharrawaddy by Oates and deposited in the collection of NHML. Subsequently, non-type specimens were collected from the type locality (Rangoon) and nearby regions (Palon and Prome); these specimens are deposited in the collections of MSNG and NHRS. New material recently collected from Burma was known from a small island at a distance of approximately 150 km from the type locality (MHNG), suggesting that M. irrorata is abundant in this region.
Distribution. Burma, the Irrawaddy delta (Prome, Palon, Rangoon) southwards to Thai-Burmese border at the Isthmus of Kra (Taninthayi Division).

description: Genus Belisana Thorell, 1898
Belisana Thorell 1898: 278. Type species Belisana tauricornis Thorell, 1898, by original designation.
Diagnosis. This genus resembles Spermophora, but can be distinguished by the dorsal apophysis on the pedipalpal femur (usually present; Figs 2, 13), by the absence of posterior pockets on the female opisthosoma, by the absence of sclerotized ventral flaps on the procursus, and by the absence of serrated bulbal apophyses (Huber 2005a). This genus can be distinguished from Spermophorides Wunderlich, 1992 by the absence of pockets on the posterior epigynal plate and by the regular attachment site (i.e. rather proximal than distal) of the procursus on the cymbium (Figs 1–2, 12–13; Huber 2007).

Elektrokleinia

description: Genus Elektrokleinia ELLENBERGER & FANTI gen. nov.
Type species. Elektrokleinia picta ELLENBERGER & FANTI sp. nov., by present designation. The genus is at present monotypic.
Diagnosis. Elektrokleinia gen. nov. has triangular head, pronotum without lobes and the maxillary palps 4-segmented with the last palpomere strongly securiform, typical of the subfamily Cantharinae. The genus is characterized by the head triangulate behind the eyes and partially covered by the pronotum, elytra with large and superficial punctation arranged in striae and with elytra that leave the last two abdominal urites uncovered (appearing as a kind of pygidium). The hind wings are slightly longer and almost completely covered by elytra. An important character is the last abdominal segment with apex strongly concave in the middle.
Etymology. From the Ancient Greek ἤλεκτΡΟΝ (elektron) = amber, and named in honor of Simone Klein (girlfriend of the first Author) + the Latin suffix -ia. The gender is feminine.
Distribution. Currently known only from Burmese amber of the Hukawng Valley.

Zoobank LSID. http://zoobank.org/ urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 0BE9B60F-195B-4F04-A06A-7EAF0BAA9D44
Diagnosis. Cucumariinid genus; body sub-pentagonal in transverse section, fusiform; tentacles 10, short, lobed; calcareous ring cucumariid-like; complete calcareous body cover of imbricating, single-layered, perforated plates/scales, free ends point posteriorly; tube feet radial only, walls covered with scales; absence of cups and tables.
Type species and locality. Cucusquama wesafrica O’Loughlin sp. nov. (equatorial west Africa). Monotypic.
Etymology. Named Cucu from the family name Cucumariidae, with recognition of cucumariid like characters, and squama from the Latin squama (meaning scale) with reference to the body cover of imbricating scales.
Remarks. The sub-pentagonal form, complete body cover of imbricating scales, 10 short lobed tentacles, and radial series of tube feet is a unique combination of morphological characters within family Cucumariidae. We reluctantly establish a new monotypic genus.

IUCN Red List Category: Endangered (EN A4c)
Type locality: “Le Tigre et l’Euphrate” [Tigris and Euphrates Rivers]; restricted to Euphrates (Al Firat), vicinity of Anah, Al-Anbar (Iraq) by Bour et al. (1995).
Type specimen: Not located, but the animal figured on plate 41 in Daudin (1801) was designated as holotype by Bour et al. (1995).
Chorotype: SW Asiatic (Mesopotamian).
First records for Syria: Ar-Raqqa, Al-Hasaka (Siebenrock 1913).
Literature data: Ar-Raqqa, Al-Hasaka (= Hsitsche; Siebenrock 1913), ar-Raqqa (Kinzelbach 1986), at-Tebni, Al-Hseiniyeh (Aidek 2010).
Museum specimens: Jarablus (NMW 1856:1), Al-Hasaka (NMW 30291:3–4), ar-Raqqa (NMW 30282:1, 30283:1, 30892:1), ar-Rasafah (NMW 30895:1).
Citizen science record: Abu Qbei’ (observation.org 2023).
Recent records: Al-Bseireh, Al-Hasaka, Al-Jamel, Gharaneij, Muhasan, Sadd Mazkaft, Sadd Tishreen, Tabqah, Tell Tamr.
Distribution in Syria: Along the Euphrates River and the upper Al-Khabour River, but very rare. Its numbers have declined significantly in recent years as it was often caught in fishermen’s lines (Fig. 17).
Remarks: TaŞkavak et al. (2016) provided comprehensive information about distribution, classification, nesting, threats, etc. but without any additional information related to Syria.
Specimen NMW 30895:1 are viscera collected from ar-Rasafah. This site is arid and far from the river, so it is most likely that they were carried there by a predator from the vicinity of ar-Raqqa. Ar-Rasafah (see Appendix 1) is not shown on the distribution map for R. euphraticus (Fig. 17) but included in the grid cell map (Fig. 3).
There are 19 records from Syria on GBIF. Of these, 16 are not from Syria but from Iraq and Türkiye.

Ocnus capensis

description: 2. Ocnus capensis (Théel, 1886).
We have identified a single Discovery Expedition specimen from the sub-littoral of Saldanha Bay in south-west South Africa as Ocnus capensis (Théel, 1886) (MS 82, off Salamander Point, 7–14 m, 6 Sept 1926, NHMUK 2016.143). We based our determination on the description and illustration by Théel (1886) of the three type specimens collected from 179–274 meters off Cape Town in South Africa. Saldanha Bay is close to the type locality for this species. Based on our laboratory notes and sketches, Frank Rowe (pers. comm.) judged that the species is Ocnus capensis, but thought that the species would be better assigned to Pseudocnus Panning, 1949. Rowe judged that genus Ocnus Forbes & Goodsir, 1839 (in Forbes, 1841) is restricted to the Mediterranean and north European shore, and that genus Pentacta Goldfuss, 1820 is a monotypic endemic South Africa genus. Thandar (1991) described and illustrated and discussed Ocnus capensis, and Ahmed Thandar (pers. comm.) expressed some doubt about our identification. He considered the species to be a deep water one. We acknowledge that there is thus some doubt about our identification.

Caretta caretta

description: Caretta caretta (Linnaeus, 1758)
Loggerhead Sea Turtle (Fig. 5)
IUCN Red List Category: Vulnerable (VU A2b); Mediterranean subpopulation: Least Concern (LC).
Type locality: “Insulas Americanas.” Restricted to “Mari Mediterraneo, Atlantico” by Schoepff (1793); to “ Bermuda Islands” by Smith & Taylor (1950a, 1950b); and to “ Bimini, British Bahamas ” by Schmidt (1953).
Type specimens: Unknown.
Chorotype: Circumglobal (Cosmopolitan).
First records for Syria: The rocky coasts of Syria (Lortet 1883), between Latakia and Jabla (Kasparek 1995).
Citizen science record: Latakia (iNaturalist 2023).
Distribution in Syria: Foraging and nesting in Syria. Caretta caretta is found throughout the year in different size classes in marine waters off the coast. Some dead turtles were also seen on at the beaches of ash-Shati’ Al-Azraq, Ugarit, Banias, Shati’ Ishtar, Shati’ Al-Dubbat, Al-Khrab, and Ras Al-Baseet. Nesting has been reported for sandy beaches in or near (1) Ras Al-Basit, (2) Um et-Toyour, (3) Wadi Kandil, (4) Latakia beach (Shkaifat and Sanawbar), (5) Banias, (6) south of Tartous (Rees et al. 2008 a, 2008b, 2010; Saad et al. 2010, 2020; see also Casale et al. 2018 and our Fig. 6). Although the coast is mainly sandy, most beaches have a rocky shelf at the edge of the sea, rendering them unsuitable for nesting. There are 12 records off the coast (Halpin et al. 2009) and Latakia (iNaturalist 2023), respectively. Syrian C. caretta belong to the Mediterranean Regional Management Unit (Wallace et al. 2023).
Remarks: There are 14 putative records from Syria on GBIF, but these are situated either in neighboring countries or the geographical coordinates refer to inland cities in Syria far from the sea.
Syrian C. caretta belong to the Mediterranean Regional Management Unit (Wallace et al. 2023).

Acanthoplesiops

description: [[Genus Acanthoplesiops]]
Acanthoplesiops is considered to have four valid species, all very small with no specimens larger than 27 mm SL. The genus is unique among acanthoclinines (and plesiopids) in having the following characters: 1-2 secondary opercular spines (Smith-Vaniz & Johnson 1990: 249, mistakenly reported that Fraudella “has a series of prominent spines on the posterior margin of the opercle”; the serrations are actually on the preopercle); pectoral radial formula 3-0-1; supracleithral lateral-line canal absent; anterior/posterior ceratohyal suturing both medial and lateral; scales in mid-lateral series bilobed. Smith-Vaniz and Johnson (1990) noted a distributional puzzle presented by Acanthoplesiops in that there is no Australian representative. Mooi and Gill (in press) addressed this by providing evidence that Notograptus, an Australian endemic and previously a separate family, is sister to Acanthoplesiops.

This genus re-described and revised by Ingrisch (1998) and Ingrisch & Tan (2012) is not very uniform, because copulatory structures in one of its representatives (O. truncatipennis Bol.) significantly differ from those of the rest congeners. Moreover, in the latter congeners, these structures look more similar to those of the related genus Tabangacris Willemse than to those of O. truncatipennis.

Many Discovery Expedition lots have been identified as species of Pentactella Verrill, 1876. Based on morphological characters and distribution consideration, and with the support of some genetic data, O’Loughlin et al. (2014) reassigned numbers of species of Pseudocnus Panning, 1949 to a new genus Laevocnus O’Loughlin (in O’Loughlin et al. 2014). Immediately after publication the authors recognized that the type species for the new genus Laevocnus was the type species for the monotypic Pentactella Verrill, 1876. Laevocnus is an objective junior synonym of Pentactella. A detailed systematic history of genus Pentactella, and the assigned species, is provided by O’Loughlin et al. (2015).

Pholcus Walckenaer 1805: 80. Type species Aranea phalangioides Fuesslin, 1775, by monotypy.
Diagnosis. This genus can usually be distinguished from all known genera of the subfamily Pholcinae by the presence of three pairs of apophyses (proximo-lateral, proximo-frontal, and disto-frontal; Figs 34, 42) on the male chelicerae, by the presence of a bulbal uncus and appendix (Figs 30, 40), and by the presence of a ‘knob’ on the usually sclerotized epigyne (Huber 2011a; see also Huber 2011a for a discussion on diagnostic characters in Pholcus, and reversals in some taxa).

Pseudopotamilla

description: Genus Pseudopotamilla Bush, 1905
Remarks. Pseudopotamilla is represented by some boring species in rocks and dead coral, and characterized by the presence of unpaired proximal compound radiolar eyes on the outer margins of radioles. The type species, Pseudopotamilla reniformis (Bruguière, 1789), was originally described from Iceland and has been subsequently reported from the Caribbean Sea, European waters, American coasts of North and South Atlantic, Arctic, and North Pacific (Kolbasova et al. 2013 and references therein).
As shown in her poster presented during the 8th International Polychaeta Conference in Madrid, Knight-Jones, Darbyshire and Petersen were working on the designation of a neotype for Pseudopotamilla reniformis and the resurrection of two species previously synonymized with P. reniformis (Knight-Jones et al. 2004); however, Knight-Jones and Petersen died before this work was completed, but the designation of a neotype is now under revision (Knight-Jones et al. 2017). In addition, records of P. reniformis from the Caribbean area were corrected as P. fitzhughi (Tovar-Hernández & Salazar-Vallejo, 2006), and those from Australia were reassigned as Pseudopotamilla sp. A and sp. B by Capa (2007), showing that some misidentifications of Pseudopotamilla species have occurred. A full revision of Pseudopotamilla is needed in order to confirm the distribution of P. reniformis.
Pseudopotamilla was emended by Capa (2007). The genus includes 16 species (Capa et al. 2014), but only one was described from South America: P. polyophthalma Hartmann-Schröder, 1965 from Punta Lavapie (Central Chile) to 58 m depth. In the present paper, a new species of Pseudopotamilla is described from Argentina, and Potamilla platensis Hartman, 1953, is transferred to Pseudopotamilla and redescribed. Pseudopotamilla platensis is commonly found in translucent, chitinous tubes with an external layer of sand grains, from intertidal to 200 m depth, whereas P. knightjonesae sp. nov., was collected intertidally in hard sediment matrix.

African Softshell Turtle, Nile Softshell Turtle (Fig. 18)
IUCN Red List Category: Vulnerable (VU A4bcd); Mediterranean subpopulation Critically Endangered (CR C2a; TTWG 2021)
Type locality: “Nilo” [Nile River, Egypt].
Type specimen: Muséum National d’Histoire naturelle, Paris, MNHN 4147, lectotype designated by Bour et al. (1995). There are two paralectotypes, MNHN A.5186 and A.5227.
Chorotype: Afrotropico-Mediterranean.
First record for Syria: Nahr Al-Kabir Al-Janoubi, dating back to the “ Naturalis historia ” by Pliny the Elder (Gaius Secundus Plinius 77–79, reprinted 1855–1857).
Literature data: Middle Orontes River in Ain Taqa in the Ghab Valley (Kinzelbach 1986), Nahr Al-Kabir Al-Janoubi (Kasparek & Kinzelbach 1991).
Recent records: An individual was swimming in the Nahr Al-Kabir Al-Janobi River on the Syrian-Lebanese border, on August 4, 2004, during an afternoon field survey (Saad & Rees unpubl.). Another individual in the village of Al-Qabou was transferred on July 16, 2005 from a spring to a freshwater pool near Sanwbar Beach (Saad unpubl.). There are two records from the upper Orontes River. One T. triunguis was caught by a fisherman in Al-Alani on October 15, 2020 (Fig. 18B), and another one was found dead on the riverbank in Al-Hamziyeh on May 17, 2022 (Baniasi unpubl.).
Distribution in Syria: Restricted to the Nahr Al-Kabir Al-Janoubi and the Orontes River (Fig. 19).
Remarks: Fritz et al. (2022) reviewed several studies providing anecdotal information on the phylogeography of T. triunguis. Mediterranean populations, presumably including those from Syria, represent a single population connected across the sea, while those from sub-Saharan Africa appear to be divergent.

Diagnosis (amended): Unplated, marine Echiniscoidea. Adults with supernumerary claws (six to 13) on each leg. Secondary clava (papilla cephalica) domeshapedor almostflat (indistinct). Median cephalic cirrus always absent. Other cephalic appendages and leg appendages small (reduced). Cirri Aand E similar in both structure and length. The fourth leg sensory structure is papillar, as is the primary clava. Stylet sheath present; stylet supports always absent. Seminal receptacles lacking. External fertilization of the smooth eggs. Anal system consists of two lateral lobes and a terminal lobe. The anal opening is located in front of the terminal lobe.
Type genus: Echiniscoides Plate, 1889.
Discussion: The family Echiniscoididae consists of two subfamilies: Echiniscoidinae and Isoechiniscoidinae. The presence of supernumerary (six to 13) claws in adults is not seen in any other heterotardigrades. Seminal receptacles are never present in Echiniscoididae, but within Echiniscoidea seminal receptacles are found in Oreella Murray, 1910 (Binda & Kristensen, 1986; Dastych et al., 1998).
