Caissa aruna

description: Caissa aruna N. Singh & Ahmad, sp. nov.
(Figs 1, 7, 8)
Holotype. ♂, India, Arunachal Pradesh, Bhalukpong, Tippi, 13.vii.2018, Pallab Chatterjee leg. (NZCZSI).
Paratype. 1 ♂, data same as holotype.
Diagnosis. Morphologically, Caissa aruna sp. nov. belongs to the third species group of Caissa. The new species and its closely similar species C. parenti (Wu & Fang 2008, Fig. 2, 6) are distinct from all the other congeners by a prominent process originating from the junction of valva base and transtilla, which is absent in other species of the genus. Caissa aruna sp. nov. is distinct from C. parenti by the valva with almost equal width throughout the length and narrowly rounded at apex, the saccular process is almost straight and apically blunt, and the juxta is mushroom shaped, whereas in C. parenti, the valva is apically broadened, the saccular process is curved towards costa, pointed apically and the juxta is almost quadrilateral. In C. aruna sp. nov. the aedeagus is longer with a dentate apical plate which is absent in C. parenti.
Description. Male. Wingspan 11 mm, Forewing length 22 mm. Ground color pale brownish, antennae filiform. Forewing with antemedial oblique brownish line; postmedial line outwardly curved below costa, then oblique to meet tornus; area between both the lines suffused with brown; discoidal spot black; hindwing pale yellow clothed with brown scales, leaving costal area pales; a prominent black spot at tornus. Male genitalia with uncus having a short sub apical process; gnathos 2/3 rd of the uncus, minutely curved apically; a long horn shape process originating from junction of valva base and transtilla; juxta somewhat mushroom-like; valvae almost tongue-like; basal saccular process small thumb like; aedeagus half the length of valvae, tip with a dentate plate.
Distribution. So far, the species is reported from its type locality only.
Etymology. The new species is named after the sanskrit word ‘Aruna’, prefix ofArunachal, meaning ‘light of rising sun’.

Diagnosis. Externally, C. gambita follows the general feature of the second group of Caissa species. In male genitalia, the uncus is triangular with a minute apical spine and the gnathos is two-thirds the length of the uncus, pointed apically. The valva is apically broadened, covered with dense hair, with a basal saccular process that is rod-like, reaching almost 3/4 of the valva.
Taxonomic note: Herein, the type of Caissa gambita is studied for the first time. Previous records of C. gambita (Wu & Fang 2008: Figs 1, 5, Yoshimoto 1994: Figs 14, 472) are the wrong identification of C. fasciatum.

Symphora

description: Genus Symphora LeConte, 1866
Note. The amber specimens under study possess morphological characters of two externally similar genera placed as incertae sedis within the subfamily Melandryinae: Symphora LeConte, 1866 and Microtonus LeConte, 1862, both absent in Europe and distributed in the New World and eastern Asia (Nikitsky & Pollock 2008, 2010). The set of these characters is: procoxae contiguous, pretarsal claws simple, head visible from above, frontoclypeal suture deeply impressed, antennae 11-segmented and filiform, antennal insertions concealed from above, pronotum without triangular basal impressions, protrochantin invisible, lateral sides of pronotum not margined, elytra narrowly ovate, elytral punctuation irregular, and penultimate tarsomere of all legs bilobed. Several morphological features observed in fossil specimens (e.g. eyes slightly emarginated, pronotal posterior angles not acute, pronotal lateral sides very shorty margined posteriorly, and the widest at base pronotum) allow us to assign these beetles to Symphora. This genus includes ten extant Neotropical species (LeConte 1866; Champion 1888, 1916; Nikitsky & Pollock 2008; Pollock 2015), known from Brazil [Symphora infuscata Champion, 1916; S. longicornis Champion, 1916], Panama [S. apicalis Champion, 1889], Guatemala [S. maculata Champion, 1889; S. tropicalis Champion, 1889; S. ruficeps Champion, 1889; S. convexa Champion, 1889; S. elongata Champion, 1889], and Mexico [S. impressicollis Champion, 1889; S. lanceolata Champion, 1916]; and four extant Holarctic species, two of them occurring in eastern North America [S. flavicollis (Haldeman, 1848) and S. rugosa (Haldeman, 1848)] and two distributed in eastern Asia (Russian Far East, Japan) [S. atra Nomura, 1959 and S. brunnea (Marseul, 1876) = S. miyakei Nomura & Hayashi, 1960].

Microscapha andrzeji

description: Microscapha andrzeji Bukejs et Alekseev, 2015
Material examined. One specimen with collection number MMO 1 7657/1265 [MWO]; Baltic amber, adult, female, complete specimen. The beetle inclusion is preserved in a small, yellow, polished piece of transparent amber with dimensions of 12×10× 4.5 mm without supplementary fixation. Syninclusions are represented by one Acari specimen.
Note. The specimen is unicolorous rufous, with body length 1.71 mm, body width 0.79 mm (body length/width ratio 2.18), with sutural stria reaching scutellar shield and scutellar sides straight. The characters correspond to the described M. andrzeji with the exception of the body coloration. The holotype of M. andrzeji is dark brown, with maxillary palpomere 4 and antennomeres 9–10 rufous only, while the specimen under study is unicolorous rufous (like the holotype of M. kugelanni sp. nov.). The color difference between the studied amber specimens is considered insignificant for species attribution in this case and possibly caused by the fossilization of amber and alteration of inclusions after burial.

description: Euryparasitus longicheta Bondartchuk & Buyakova (Figs. 2 B, 4)
Euryparasitus longicheta Bondartchuk & Buyakova, 1978, Zool. Zh. 57: 1578 Diagnosis. This species differs from all other known Euryparasitus deutonymphs by the relatively long dorsal setae, nearly all of which surpass the insertion point of the next seta in the series. In most other characteristics it is quite close to E. tori and E. occidentalis. The following notes are intended to supplement the original description, and to provide comparative data for E. occidentalis.
Description. Idiosomal length 655 (36) and width 414 (15) (N= 6).
Gnathosoma. Cheliceral dentition, gnathotectal shape, and palp segmentation and setation as in E. occidentalis. Hypostomal setae relatively longer, lengths of setae hyp 2 far surpassing the insertion of setae cs (Fig. 2 B).
Idiosoma. Dorsal shields subequal in size, covering most of dorsum (Fig. 3 A). Podonotal shield length 325 (16), width 355 (16), opisthonotal shield length 301 (19), width 356 (40). All setae smooth; most setae long, although setae j 1, z 1, and some marginal setae are short; setae r 4, Z 3, and Z 5 longer than most other setae, but less obviously so than in E. occidentalis. Distribution of setae, lyrifissures, and glands as in E. occidentalis.
Venter. Sternal shield large. Peritremes extending beyond the anterior edge of coxal acetabula I. Peritrematal, metapodal, and anal shields as in E. occidentalis. Setae slightly longer than in E. occidentalis, but much less so than on the dorsum. Lyrifissures ivp, situated posterior to the anus not observed. This may be an artifact of inadequate material.
Legs. Leg morphology and setation pattern as in E. occidentalis.
Material examined (all deutonymphs). U.S.A.: Oregon, Union Co., Starkey Exp. Forest, 45°14'N, 118°33'W, ex Sorex vagrans (CM7004), 19 Oct 1976, coll. Maser, C. O., OSAL 013796–800; ex Clethrionomys gapper i (Muridae) (CM6994) 26 Oct 1976, coll. Maser, C. O., OSAL 013801.
Deposition of specimens. Specimens deposited in JOW and OSAL.
Remarks. Euryparasitus longicheta was described from Western Siberia associated with Eutamias sibericus (Sciuridae) and Cricetulus barabensis (Muridae) (Bondartchuk & Buyakova, 1978).

Planovalvata

description: Genus Planovalvata Dubatolov & Kishida, 2012
Planovalvata Dubatolov & Kishida in Dubatolov, Kishida & Wang, Tinea 22 (1): 39. Type species: Planovalvata confusa Volynkin, Dubatolov & Kishida, sp. nov. (= Stigmatophora roseivena sensu Dubatolov et al. (2012), neC Hampson (1894)).
Taxonomic note. In the original description, Dubatolov & Kishida (Dubatolov et al. 2012) attributed the genus to "the series of Miltochrista -like genera" (Asura / Miltochrista complex by Holloway 2001), but according to the male genitalia structure (entire distal section of valve with a longitudinal zone of costally directed strong setae), it is related to the genus Eugoa Walker, [1858] and not to the Asura / Miltochrista complex. At present the genus Eugoa includes several groups of species with significantly different genital structures and some of them probably could be erected into separated genera. The generic/subgeneric structure of this group will be revised later by the authors.
Diagnosis. Small moths with yellow forewing ground color and pattern consisting of red strokes on veins and along the costal margin. In the male genitalia, Planovalvata has the following apomorphic differences from the typical Eugoa (the type species Eugoa aequalis (Walker, [1858]) was illustrated by Holloway (2001) and Durante (2012)): 1) uncus is long, narrow and laterally flattened (whereas in Eugoa the uncus is short, dorso-ventrally spatula-like broadened); 2) tegumen without paratergal sclerites and dentate penicular lobes (whereas in Eugoa s. str. the tegumen with rounded paratergal sclerites and large irregularly dentate penicular lobes); 3) vinculum is very short (whereas in Eugoa the vinculum is longer); 4) distal part of the costal margin of valve is irregularly dentate (whereas in Eugoa the costal margin of valve is smooth). Female unknown.

Stigmatophora Staudinger, 1881, Stettiner entomologische Zeitung 42: 399. Type speCies: Setina micans Bremer & Grey, 1853, by monotypy.
Diagnosis. Small or medium-sized moths with different wing coloration and pattern. Male antennae are fasciculate, female antennae are filiform. In the male genitalia (Figs. 11–12), like in other Endrosina Börner, 1920 genera, the valve with well developed thorn-like harpe medio-subbasally; the costa is weakly sclerotized, without medial and distal processes; the sacculus with a well developed distal process; the vesica consists of one dorsal subbasal membranous diverticulum and large sack-like distal section with fields of spine- or tooth-like scobination and/or clusters of numerous small but robust cornuti. The female genitalia (Figs. 14–15) are characterized by the very long, well sclerotized and dorso-ventrally flattened ductus bursae, the small, elliptical corpus bursae with a strong spine-like scobination, and the very long and narrow appendix bursae directed posteriorly. Genital differences from Pseudomiltochrista are described in the diagnosis of the latter.

Taxonomic remarks
Antennae with 28 and 29 antennomeres in adults and 28 in one juvenile. Cupuliform organ with eight complex olfatory chemoreceptor sensilla characterized by a cylindrical central structure without noticeable pores, surrounded by one concentric fold (Figs 18–19). Gouge sensilla long (25 µm), with a tip on the end (Fig. 20). Frontal process with a frontal and lateral rim (Fig. 21). The shortness of their telotarsal processes and the shape of the claws are confirmed (Figs 23–24). The urosternites of male and female were mentioned in the original description but no drawings were produced. In the first urosternite of both males and females there are no g 1 -glandular setae and the appendages support up to 54 a 1 -glandular setae in males and up to nine in females (Figs 24–25).

Notes. HƟΒΕRΓΑΝĐΤ (1941) described R. madari from two localities near the north-eastern coast of Madagascar; the type material is deposited in the National Museum in Prague (KΜΕΝΤ & KƟΓíΝƟඏǍ 2013). We compared paratype specimens from both sites with specimens from Fianarantsoa and Tamatave Provinces (NHMW) and the Nosy Boraha specimens and confirmed their conspecificity. This obviously widely distributed species belongs to the R. pexa group (sensu PƟΓΗΕΜUඌ & AΝĐΕRඌΕΝ 2015), which needs revision.
