description: Watara longiprocessa sp. nov.
(Figs 5–8, 9–12, 23–31)
Description. Ground color pale beige. Eyes grey (Figs 6–8). Face pale beige; middle and lower part of frontclypeus slightly darker (Fig. 8). Pronotum pale anterolaterally, with two brown spots near anterior margin; blackish beige medially and whitish posteriorly (Figs 5, 7, 9, 11). Scutellum beige, with light orange tint; basal triangles dark brown. Two central brown patches situated posterad of scutellar suture and between basal triangles (Figs 5, 7, 9, 11). Fore wing pale, with rounded dark brown patch at brochosome field basad and several other orange or brownish patches on surface (Figs 5, 9).
Male abdominal apodemes broad, extending to middle part of 5th sternite (Fig. 23).
Male genitalia. Pygofer with dorsal appendage movably articulated (Fig. 24). Pygofer lobe with one dorsal macroseta and 6 grouped long macrosetae at baso-ventral angle (Fig. 24). Pygofer dorsal appendage short, hooklike apically (Fig. 24). Subgenital plate with 4 macrosetae on lateral surface in a row and several microsetae scattered apically (Figs 24, 25). Style with preapical lobe quite small in lateral view (Fig. 27). Connective Y-shaped, central lobe absent (Fig. 29). Aedeagus with pair of long process arising from base of shaft; preatrium very short and dorsal apodeme slightly expanded in lateral view (Figs 30, 31).
Measurement. Body length, male 2.3–2.4 mm.
Specimens examined. Holotype: ♂, THAILAND, Surat Thani, Khao Sok NP Klong Morg Unit, 8°53.725'N 98°39.025'E, 87 m, Malaise trap, 16–23.xii.2008, coll. Pongphan (QSBG). Paratypes: 9♂♂, same data as holotype (INHS, SKS).
Remarks. This species is very similar to W. cordata Zhang & Yang (2011) from Yunnan (China) in external morphological characteristics, but differs in having the paired long processes arising from base of aedeagal shaft (Figs 30, 31); the aedeagus dorsal apodeme slightly expanded in lateral view and the preatrium strongly reduced (Fig. 30).
Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin prefix “longi-” and Latin word “processus”, referring to the long basal processes of the aedeagus shaft (Figs 30, 31).

description: Califarcturus n. gen.
Type species. Microarcturus tannerensis Schultz, 1966, herein designated and by monotypy.
Diagnosis. Head, pereonites and all pleonites each with transverse rows of submedian, sublateral and lateral tubercles bearing bead-like spheres; pleotelson with short oblique lateral tubercles. Eyes absent. Male pleopod 1 exopod with well defined groove opening at notch about three-quarters along, without ventral tooth.
Etymology. For California, combined with Arcturus, a commonly used genus stem.
Remarks. Microarcturus tannerensis Schultz, 1966 has remained without a valid genus name for almost 50 years, Microarcturus being a nomen nudum (Poore 2003). The species is still known only from its holotype. Its unique male pleopod 1 does not allow it to be placed in any known valviferan genus. The setation of pereopods 2– 4 excludes the species from Antarcturidae and other similar families.

Material examined. Holotype. South Africa, off Natal, 27°59’5, 32°40.8’E, 550 m (Meiring Naude stn SM 86), SAM A15473 (male, 6.0 mm). Paratype. Collected with holotype, SAM A15473 (ovigerous female, 8.2 mm). Other material. South Africa, off Natal (Meiring Naude stn SM 103), SAM A15474 (1 male, 2 juveniles).
Supplementary redescription. Pereopod 2 carpus twice as long as merus, convex along flexor margin; propodus almost as long a carpus, convex distally on flexor margin; dactylus with unguis as long as dactylus body; ischium with 1 marginal and 1 submarginal setae, merus with 2 marginal and 2 submarginal setae, carpus with 4 marginal and 3 submarginal setae, propodus with 3 marginal and 3 facial setae, dactylus with 3 marginal and 3 mesial facial seta. Pereopod 3 with similar setation, articles about as long but broader than those of pereopod 2. Pereopod 4 with similar setation to but distal articles especially shorter than pereopod 2. Pereopod 6 linear, 1.2 times as long as pereopod 2. Male pleopod 1 exopod thickened proximally, lamellar distally, with broad curved proximal depression on posterior face, filled with mat of long fine setae extending to mesial margin; exopod margin otherwise with plumose setae; endopod as long as exopod. Male pleopod 2 with appendix masculina simple, tapering, 1.8 times as long as endopod. Uropodal endopod subtriangular, with 2 or 3 distal robust setae, exopod slightly shorter than endopod, ovoid-tapering, with 2 distal robust setae.
Ovigerous female with ovoid oostegites on pereopods 1–4, each supported by oblique coxal spines, most prominent on pereopod 4; oostegite 5 an oval disc on anterior margin of pereonite 5 supported by short coxal projection.
Distribution. Indian Ocean, off South Africa, Natal; 550– 680 m.
Remarks. Examination of the male and female types confirmed most of Kensley’s (1978a) observations and illustrations. He mislabelled his illustration of pereopod 2 (fig. 8A) as ‘pereiopod VII’ and stated that ‘pereiopods II to IV essentially similar to pereiopods V to VII’. This is not so, pereopods 2–4 are stouter, with well-spaced long stiff setae arranged almost in pairs, while pereopods 5–7 are long, thin and with few short robust setae. Kensley did not figure the facial setae on distal articles but showed the tomentum of setules.

Supplementary redescription. Pereopod 2 carpus twice as long as merus, convex along flexor margin; propodus as long a carpus, almost linear; dactylus with unguis 0.7 length of dactylus body; ischium–carpus each with few marginal and submarginal setae, propodus with 4 mesial facial setae, dactylus with 1 strong mesial facial seta. Pereopods 3 and 4 similar, slightly shorter. Male pleopod 1 exopod ending in rounded setose lobe; posterior groove ending in deep fissure about 0.7 along length formed by a lateral lobe and a curved secondary lobe mesially; exopod 0.7 times length of endopod. Pleopod 2 endopod slightly longer than exopod; appendix masculina slightly curved, slightly longer than endopod, covered with fine setae. Pleopods 3–5 without marginal long setae. Uropodal endopod broader than long, with subdistal stout seta; exopod narrower than endopod, tapering, with longer distal stout seta.
Distribution. Eastern Pacific Ocean, off USA, California; 1300 m.
Remarks. Schultz (1966) stated that his type was a female but labelled his figure 10 of the fused penes as ‘first male pleopods’. The specimen is clearly a male; a female could be expected to have a wider midpereon. His dorsal habitus figure is reproduced here along with new illustrations of pereopod 2, pleopods 1 and 2, and the uropod, not figured in the original description.

Description matches that of Bolton (1982).
Diagnosis
Nesomyrmex braunsi looks similar to N. simoni and N. saasveldensis but iseasily recognized by lacking spines on the propodeum, lacking hairs on the promesonotum (hairs abundant on promesonotum of the latter two species), and by being larger (HW 1.033-1.109 versus 0.783-0.884).
Biology
Specimens have been collected from pitfall, yellow pan,
and malaise traps, and by sweeping vegetation, in Nama-Karoo. Nest is in the soil; the entrance is in the open and can have a circle of soil round it.

Mesonotal dorsum reticulate with a few striations. Propodeal dorsum reticulate-punctate and declivity with transverse rugulae; both nodes also reticulate. First gastral tergite with a ring of a short basal costulae, with the remainder of the tergite smooth and shining. Head dorsum with two longitudinal lines of fine acute hairs running between the frontal lines. The venter of head with five suberect hairs and pubescence present. Promesonotal dorsum with scattered fine hairs, acute apically. Propodeal dorsum with two pairsof fine hairs. Petiolar node with three pairs of fine suberect hairs and postpetiole with pairs of scattered suberect, fine hairs. Gastral tergite and sternite with regularly spaced suberect hairs. Colour uniformly yellow.
Diagnosis
Nesomyrmex cederbergensis is similar in appearance to N. inye, N. njengelanga, N. koebergensis and N. ezantsi - they are all yellow in colour and their petiolar nodes in profile havea rounded posterodorsal angle and the anterodorsal angle either angulate or rounded, with the dorsum convex and not clearly defined. N. cederbergensis is recognized by the smooth and shining dorsum of head, with few longitudinal striations near the inner margin of the eyes whereas the other three species have reticulate sculpture on the dorsum of head, sometimes overlaid by longitudinal rugulae.
Biology
The single specimen of this species was collected from a pitfall in Mountain Fynbos.
Etymology
Named after the Cederberg Mountains, where the holotype was collected.

Material examined. Three dissected females from Svaldbard. Valves were completely decalcified and hence destroyed during dissection. Drawings of soft parts are included for OC.3027, 3028.
Additional description of female. For description and illustrations of valves, we refer to Griffiths et al. (1998). The material presented here was too decalcified to be able to give additional valve characters.
A2 (Fig. 18 A) with reduced natatory setae, third seta the longest and reaching the basis of the terminal segment; z1 a short setae, z2 and z3 long setae, G1 and G3 long claws, G2 a short claw (about 1.6 times the length of the terminal segment); terminal segment with a long claw GM, shorter claw Gm, seta g, and aesthetasc y3, with seta fused at the base with this aesthetasc.
Md palp with slender α-seta on the first segment, a strongly developed and serrated β-seta flanked by a group of four smooth seta on the second segment, and a long, serrated γ-seta on the penultimate segment (Fig. 18 C).
Mx1 with seven (5+2) setae on the first segment of the palp, tooth bristles on the third endite serrated.
T2 (Fig. 18 B) with seta d1 reduced and seta d2 of normal length.
CR (Fig. 18 D) with proximal seta slightly hirsute, proximally slightly enforced; distal half of the posterior side of the ramus set with about six setular fields, these fields slightly wider than in the other species of the genus (2 or 3 parallel rows of setulae instead of 1 or 2).
Measurements. Female: length = 1.56–1.68 mm (n = 3)
Remarks. Griffiths et al. (1998) gave a whole range of measurements for Recent and Pleistocene populations. Most of these measurements of adult (sub-) Recent specimens fall in the range of 1.40–1.75 mm for the length and 710–900 µm for the height. They also suggested that the presence of this species indicates mean summer (June–August) temperatures of about 6° C. Bronshtein (1947) reports carapace lengths of up to 1.6 mm.

Tarsonemus longitibialis

description: Tarsonemus longitibialis (Attiah)
Metatarsonemus longitibialis Attiah, 1970: 190.
Tarsonemus longitibialis, Lindquist, 1985:1285; Lin and Zhang, 2002: 246.
Remarks: Examining the specimens available to Attiah, in the same slide preparation of the holotype male, Lindquist (1985) detected two adult females that apparently belonged to this species and that were in poor condition. He distinguished them from females of M. simplicissimus by three characteristics, one of which was the absence of fissures in coxisternal plates I to IV. This character state leads us to exclude T. longitibialis from Metatarsonemus, as re-defined here. An examination of the females is necessary before a conclusion about which genus T. longitibialis belongs, but is provisionally retained in Tarsonemus. We tried to analyze these females by examining the same slide studied by Lindquist (1985) which supposedly would contain the females (in poor conditions according to Lindquist) and males of T. longitibialis. But only males were found. Though we carefully looked for them, no females were evident. Possibly they were crystallized by the medium or lost during some remounting procedure. Therefore, a definitive conclusion in this regard requires an examination of additional specimens collected from the type locality.

Description matches that of Bolton (1982) except for a few additional characters: promesonotal dorsum with scattered short erect hairs, petiolar node with a pair of subdecumbent hairs and a pair of subdecumbent hairs on the postpetiole; sparse pubescence present.
Diagnosis
Nesomyrmex simoni looks similar to N. braunsi and N. saasveldensis in that they all have rugo-reticulate petiolar node and rugo-reticulate sculpture is usually also evident partially or completely on head and mesosoma. It is recognized from N. braunsi by its smaller size (HW 0.783- 0.884 versus 1.033-1.109), and armed propodeum (versus unarmed). It is distinguished from N. saasveldensis by lacking hairs on the propodeum.
