description: Reginesus n. gen. Reis & Navia
Eriophyidae, Nothopodinae, Colopodacini (Fig. 1)
Diagnosis. Reginesus n. gen. belongs to the Nothopodinae with coxal seta I (1b) present; coxae of legs I fused; tibia of leg I not fused with tarsus; prodorsal shield with tubercles and scapular setae (sc) present and placed ahead of rear shield margin; empodia entire; genual seta (l") present only on leg I and femoral seta (bv) absent on legs I and II; dorsal opisthosoma with three longitudinal ridges, a middorsal ridge extending over the anterior half of opisthosoma and two lateral ridges fading at the level dorsad of ventral seta f; ventral seta I (d) and II (e) are absent. This new genus is near Paracolopodacus Kuang & Huang 1994 in the presence of coxal seta I (1b); coxae of legs I fused; scapular setae and tubercles present on the prodorsal shield and placed ahead of the rear shield margin; empodia entire; genual seta (l") present only on leg I; and ventral seta II (e) absent. However, it differs from this genus mainly in the tibia not being fused with the tarsus (fused in Paracolopodacus); in the absence of femoral seta (bv) on legs I and II (present in both legs in Paracolopodacus) and in the presence of dorsal opisthosomal ridges (apparently absent in Paracolopodacus).
Type species. Reginesus macuxi n. sp.
Etymology. The generic name, Reginesus, is derived from the Latin words Regina, which means “queen” and the Latin word esus, which means “eat”. This refers to the habit of feeding on palms, popularly considered as the queens of the forest. Gender: masculine.

Diagnosis. This species can easily be distinguished from its congeners by the columnar uncus and membranous semicircular gnathos.
Description. Adult (Fig. 7) with wing expanse 12.5 – 14.0 mm. Head with frons yellowish white, vertex yellowish brown. Labial palpus in male yellowish white, second segment with dense black scales on distal half ventrally. Antenna yellow, flagellum ringed with brown. Thorax and tegula brown. Forewing with costal margin slightly arched, termen oblique; brown, costal margin with a pale yellow spot at distal 1/5; discal and discocellular as well as plical spots blackish brown (worn); cilia dark brown. Hindwing and cilia gray. Legs yellow, tarsi blackish brown distally; tibia and tarsus of foreleg covered with pale brown scales on outer surface.
Male genitalia (Fig. 13). Uncus nearly columnar, slightly wider basally, narrow distally, sinuate apically. Gnathos membranous semicircular. Valva gradually widened from base to 1/3, subparallel from 1/3 to before bluntly rounded apex; with a tuft of strong setae ranging from basal 1/5 to 1/3, distal 2/3 with dense long hairs. Costa banded, distally narrowed, not reaching end of valva; transtilla strong, widened distally, truncate apically. Sacculus less than 1/4 length of valva, triangular, narrowed from base to 5/6, hooked in distal 1/6, pointing dorsad. Saccus triangular, narrowly round anteriorly. Juxta broadly U-shaped, narrowly banded; lateral lobes slightly widened distally, concave at middle apically. Aedeagus about 3/5 length of valva, basal 2/5 expanded, slightly narrowed medially; distal 1/3 divided into two sclerites: dorsal one fusiform, longer, ventral one rectangular; narrow heavily sclerotized plate from base between two lobes, produced to a strong curved thorn distally, reaching or slightly exceeding end of aedeagus.
Female unknown.
Distribution. China (Yunnan).
Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin fusoideus, referring to the fusiform sclerite of the aedeagus.

Ressia

description: Ressia Sinev, 1988
Ressia Sinev, 1988: 113.
Type species: Ressia quercidentella Sinev, 1988.
Diagnosis. Ressia is diagnosed by the scape of the antennae with pectens basally, the sickle-shaped labial palpi with the third palpomere longer than the second palpomere (Figs 1a–b); the forewings with a white or silvery white subbasal fascia and 3–4 distal speckles; the male eighth tergum with a heavily sclerotized furcate process, and the pleural lobes of the male eighth segment symmetrical or asymmetrical. In the male genitalia, Ressia can be distinguished by the socii with the right brachium much longer than the left one; the valvae with a long stalk and a distinctly inflated cucullus with dense setae on the ventral surface; the slender left valvella with sparse setae distally and the absence of right valvella. In the female genitalia, Ressia can be distinguished by the sterigma symmetrical or asymmetrical, and the ductus seminalis arising from the corpus bursae right anterior to the ductus bursae.
Ressia is similar to the Polynesian genus Iressa Clarke, 1917 in venation (Fig. 2). Zhang & Li (2010) gave a more detailed diagnosis of the two genera.

Chrysoesthia

description: Chrysoesthia Hübner, [1825]
Type-species: [Tinea] zinckenella Hübner, [1813]; by subsequent designation.
Chrysoesthia shares with the closely related Metanarsia Staudinger, 1871 a phallus consisting of a strongly sclerotized base in combination with a lateral longitudinal band and a membranous vesica in the male genitalia. The female genitalia of both genera are characterized by a weakly modified, evenly sclerotized segment VIII with a narrow band-shaped sternite and usually a reduced signum. These characters states separate Chrysoesthia and Metanarsia from Catatinagma Rebel, 1903, Proactica Walsingham, 1904, and other more distantly related genera of the subfamily Anomologinae. Chrysoesthia is difficult to separate from Metanarsia. However, in Chrysoesthia the sacculus tends to be densely covered with short setae on the posterior margin, the tegumen has a fish-scale like pattern on the base, both pairs of apophyses are very short, and there are well-developed, rounded plates on the base of the setae on the ventral margin of papilla anales. These characters states may be autapomorphies of the genus.
At least 17 species of Chrysoesthia are known from the Palaearctic region (Kuroko 1961, Elsner et al. 1999, Bidzilya 2001, 2005, Beccaloni et al. 2005, Omelko & Omelko 2010); four species from the Afrotropical region (Vári 1963, Vári et al. 2002); two species from the Nearctic region (Lee et al. 2009); and two species from the Holarctic region. In the Palaearctic most species occur in the Mediterranean subregion. Larvae are endophagous, usually producing mines on Amaranthaceae, Caryophyllaceae, Chenopodiaceae, and Polygonaceae.

Zoobank LSID — urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 24C0A351- D532-4B57-9368-6B0D73A84767
Diagnosis —Teleoconch cylindrical. Surface smooth, creamy white in color. Posterior end with well-defined constriction. Septum mucronate, slightly inflated. Mucro with low rounded point. Aperture with axial rings and slight swelling followed by constriction.
Holotype — LACMIP 43085.1, LACMIP Type 14894, a complete adult shell.
Paratypes — Seven paratypes of which three are complete adult shells, LACMIP 43085.2, LACMIP Type 14895, LACMIP 43085.3, LACMIP Type 14896, UF 330224 and four are shell fragments, LACMIP 43085.4, LACMIP Type 14897, LACMIP 43085.5, LACMIP Type 14898, UF 330225, UF 330226.
Referred Specimens —LACMIP43085.6(1 specimen).
Occurrence — Known only from immediately above and below the Thylacodes beds near the base of section SC 3 in Super Creek, Riverside County, California.
Etymology —Named in honor of the late Mark Roeder, who was a member of the team which collected the material
Description —Protoconch and subadult stages not observed. Teleoconch, average size for genus [Tol: 1.90–2.30 mm], tubular, regularly arched [Larc: 0.60–0.82 mm; Arc: 0.18–0.22 mm], creamy white in color. Surface smooth except for 5–7 regularly spaced axial rings near aperture. Posterior [Dpe: 0.36–0.40 mm] with thick edge, rounded shoulder followed by deep, sulcus-like constriction. Septum mucronate, slightly inflated. Mucro with low rounded point positioned on dorsal margin. Aperture perpendicular [Da: 0.45–0.55 mm], with slight swelling followed by constriction. Lip smooth. Periostracum and operculum not observed.
Discussion — Caecum roederi is similar to the eastern Pacific extant species C.semicinctum de Folin, 1867. However, C. semicinctum is much smaller with 3–4 rounded posterior rings. The only western Atlantic species that is remotely similar is C. striatum de Folin, 1868. Although C. striatum may display a posterior constriction, it is much weaker and not always present. Caecum roederi is also larger and has apertural axial rings, which are absent in C. striatum.

Megacraspedus

description: Megacraspedus Zeller, 1839
Type-species: Ypsolophus (Megacraspedus) dolosellus Zeller, 1839; by subsequent designation.
Megacraspedus is defined by the following putative synapomorphies: reduced sacculus in the male genitalia and strongly sclerotized subostial area and very long apophyses posteriores in the female genitalia. In addition, segment 2 of the labial palpus is usually very long and straight with a dense brush of long hair, and the forewing is often elongate with longitudinal stripes. These features separate Megacraspedus from the related Aristotelia Hübner, [1825] and Caulastrocecis Chrétien, 1931.
More than 40 species of Megacraspedus are known from the Palearctic region (Rebel 1901, Gaede 1937, Huemer & Karsholt 2001, Junnilainen & Nupponen 2010); two from the Nearctic region (Lee et al. 2009); 23 from Australia (Edwards 1996); and one from New Zealand. The taxonomic status of two species recorded from the Afrotropical region (Meyrick 1920, Vári et al. 2002) require verification. Larvae feed on Poaceae and probably on Asteraceae.

description: Genus Locastra Walker, 1859: 158
Type species: Eurois crassipennis Walker, 1857 [recte Locastra maimonalis Walker, [1859] 1858, by subsequent designation by Hampson, 1896a: 470.
= Taurica Walker, [1866] 1865: 1268
Type species: Taurica muscosalis Walker, [1866] 1865: 1269, by monotypy
Diagnosis: The members of the genus Locastra Walker, 1859 are robust and large-bodied moths with the forewing having a postmedial glandular costal lobe on the forewing (Rong & Li 2017: 103, fig. 3) (except in L. pachylepidalis Hampson, 1896a), the antenna of the male bears an extension on the scape (small to extremely large) that is absent in L. pachylepidalis. In the male genitalia, the juxta with band-like extensions between juxta base and ventral vinculum, lateral arm extending from each side of juxta base; the valva is simple, with widely convex ventral side and concave costal side, costa broad and strongly sclerotized, valva without any prominent process. Based on the extension of the scape, Locastra is divided, herein, into two species groups: the L. crassipennis species group and the L. muscosalis species group.
The L. crassipennis species group is characterised by a very large, recurved triangular extension of the scape.
- L. nigrilineata Rong & Li, 2017
- L. crassipennis (Walker, 1857)
= Locastra maimonalis Walker, 1859
- L. ardua Swinhoe, 1902
= Locastra drucei Bethune-Baker, 1905
L. muscosalis species group is characterised by the extremely short, subglobose extension of the scape.
- L. muscosalis (Walker, 1866)
= Locastra cristalis Hampson, 1893
= Taurica sikkima Moore, 1888
- L. bryalis Joannis, 1930
- L. subtrapezia Rong & Li, 2017
- L. viridis Rong & Li, 2017
- L. solivaga Rong & Li, 2017
- L. mizo Ranjan, Singh & Kirti, sp. nov.
Locastra pachylepidalis is an exception to the above grouping and is distinct from all its other congeners by the absence of the costal lobe and the scape extension. The placement of this species in the genus Locastra is doubtful and needs to be studied through examination of the male and female genitalia.

Caecum brasilicum de Folin, 1874: 212, pl. 9, fig. 6, 19 syntypes MNHN-IM-2000-25785, Brazil.
Caecum brasilicum — Kisch, 1959: 39; Mello & Maestrati, 1986: 151, fig. 6; Rios, 1994: 56, pl. 18, fig. 1994; Gomes & Absalão, 1996: 515, figs. 1–3; Oliveira & Almeida, 1999: 2, fig. 4; Costa et al. 2021: 84, fig. 2A–C.
Original diagnosis — "Testa tubularia, subcylindrica, satis arcuata, crystallina, nitidissima; annulis XX-XXIV, quadratis, satis prominentibus et latis, interstitiis latis separatis, cincta; striae longitudinales annulos et interstitia decussantes; interdum annuli primi acuti vel subrotundati, haud longitudinaliter strigis decussati; aperturam versus contracta; apertura saepe marginata, parum declivis; septum ungulatum, interdum submucronatum vel subacutum, margine laterali undulato. Operculum bruneo-flavum concavum, suturae distinctae, anfractus subconvexi." de Folin (1874: 212).
English translation — "Shell tubular, subcylindrical, quite curved, crystal like, shiny; 20-24 annular rings, squarish, quite prominent and broad, separated by wide intervals, encircled; longitudinal striae covering rings and intervals; sometimes rings are first sharp or somewhat rounded, without lengthwise striae; distally spaced,often widening toward the aperture, somewhat sloping; septum hoof-like, sometimes submucronatus or subacute, lateral margin wavy. Operculum brownish-yellow convex, sutures distinct, whorls subconvex."
Referred Specimens —LACMIP 43085.10 (1 specimen); LACMIP 43085.11 (7 specimens); LACMIP 43085.12 (66 specimens).
Occurrence — Known only from immediately above and below the Thylacodes beds near the base of section SC 3 in Super Creek, Riverside County, California.
Description — Protoconch and subadult stages not observed. Teleoconch average size for genus [Tol: 1.80– 2.05 mm], tubular, strongly and regularly arched [Larc: 0.50–0.60 mm; Arc: 0.20–0.25 mm], subcylindrical with increase in diameter from posterior to aperture, creamy white. Axial sculpture consists of 20–22 rings, which may vary from triangular in posterior region becoming squared toward aperture. Axial interspaces about the same width as rings. Posterior [Dpe: 0.32–0.36 mm] with squared shoulder. Septum mucronate, flattened to recessed. Mucro with projected rounded point, positioned along dorsal margin. Aperture [Da: 0.46–0.52 mm] with slight downturn, mildly constricted. No varix. Lip smooth, weakly developed, with slightly deflected peristome.
Discussion — As pointed out by de Folin (1874: 212) and Gomes & Absalão (1996: 527), Caecum brasilicum will often feature two types of rings (triangular and quadrangular) on a single specimen.

(Fig. 36A)
Material examined: Turkey: Mersin, Anamur, 15.06.2020, 1 ♀, Ö. Koçak leg., B. Çerçi det. (BCIT)
Comments: The genus Hallodapus is represented by following three species in Turkey: H. suturalis (Herrich-Schaeffer, 1837), H. concolor (Reuter, 1890) and H. pseudoconcolor (Linnavuori, 1984) (Önder et al. 2006; Matocq et al. 2014; Çerçi et al. 2019). While the latter two are uniformly orange coloured, first one has dark head, pronotum and scutellum with yellow hemelytra that is marked with dark pattern along its inner margin. H. castae can be distinguished from H. suturalis by the dark pattern on the corium being very broad and reaching almost the edge of the hemelytra. Hallodapus costae is an Eremian species distributing in Sudanese subregion of Africa and Middle East (Linnavuori 1996; Kerzhner & Josifov 1999). It was already known from Southeastern neighbors of Turkey; Iraq and Iran (Linnavuori 1993; Ghahari & Chérot 2014). This new record from Turkey enhanced the known distribution of this species in East Mediterranean region.

Type-species: [Tinea] decurtella Hübner, [1813]; by monotypy.
Aristotelia is closest to Caulastrocecis, but it can be distinguished from the latter by a well developed sacculus that is separated from the cucullus, the absence of a frontal process, and the absence of pecten scales on the scape, the latter of which are characteristic of Caulastrocecis.
About 30 species are known from the Palaearctic region; 35 from the Nearctic region (Lee et al. 2009); at least 50 from the Neotropical region (Becker 1984); about 10 from the Afrotropical region (Vári at al. 2002); at least 20 from the Oriental region; and nearly 20 from Australia (Edwards 1996). Larvae have been recorded on Apiaceae, Ericaceae, Empetraceae, Lythraceae, Lamiaceae, Scrophulariaceae, Fabaceae, Plumbaginaceae.

(Fig. 36B)
Material examined: Turkey: Mersin, Anamur, 15.06.2020, 1 ♂, Ö. Koçak leg., B. Çerçi det. (BCIT) Comments: Tempyra biguttula is a Nearctic species originally described from Texas, USA (Stål 1874). Later it was found from several southern and northern states of USA, Hawaii, Mexico, Cuba, Jamaica, Galápagos Islands and Argentina (Kirkaldy 1910; Slater, 1964; Froeschner 1985; Baranowski & Slater 2005; Carpintero et al. 2006). More recently, in 2011, this species was introduced to Spain and started to spread along the coastline of Western Mediterranean Region as an invasive alien species. It was recorded from several localities in Spain (Baena & Torres 2012), Portugal, France (Maurel & Porteneuve 2018) and Sardinia (Rattu & Dioli 2018). This new record from Mersin, Turkey greatly enlarges the known distribution of this species in the Palaearctic Region from West Mediterranean to the East Mediterranean (Map 2). Although the biology and ecology of this species is almost completely unknown, Rattu & Dioli (2018) put the argument forward, based on previous observations in Europe, that it could take refuge in occasional shelters where there were seeds of different plants, particularly Fabaceae seeds and easily adapt to the plant species available in the newly colonized territories.
