Plutomurus

description: Genus Plutomurus Yosii, 1956
Type species: Tritomurus riugadoensis Yosii 1939.
Type locality: Riugado cave, Prefecture of Koti, Sikoku, Japan.
Diagnosis. Trochanteral-femoral organ well developed in trochanter and femur. Base of dens with lateral outer spine-like macrochaetae.
Distribution. Holarctic.
Remarks. The genus Plutomurus is quite similar to genus Aphaenomurus, however, it is distinguishable from the latter by trochanteral-femoral organ present only on femur. Species of the genus Aphaenomurus can also be found at cave ecosystem, but they are found only in entrance zone with leaf litter, not in dark zone.

Diagnosis (modified from Williams 1995b: 128, modifications in bold)
Colonies stout and clavate, with rachis in two parts, a distal part with polyp leaves and a proximal part without them, similar to peduncle in appearance but separated from the anchoring muscular peduncle by a thickened section showing longitudinal wrinkles. Distal part of rachis with bilateral symmetry throughout.Axis extends throughout length of colony, irregularly X-shaped in cross section. Polyp leaves present, thick, fleshy, and fan-like, up to ~9 leaves per side of rachis. Autozooids up to ~50 per leaf, usually in two rows at the leaf margin. Anthocodiae retractile into low fleshy calyces with one or two distinct fleshy blunt to pointed processes (sometimes difficult to observe, eroded?). Tentacles with two types of tentacular projections: conventional pinnulae on the lateral sides of main tentacular axis, and filiform ones (numerous) along the oral side of tentacular axis. Siphonozooids present on both sides of polyp leaves between and below autozooids, and on dorsal rachis’ track, not restricted to zones or pads. Sclerites elongate, three-flanged rods in polyp leaves, rachis, and peduncle, as well as short blunt rods in the tentacle axis and autozooid body (mostly longitudinally grooved or occasionally three-flanged).
Geographical and depth distribution
Indo-West Pacific (Madagascar, Malay Archipelago, Tasmanian Sea, New Zealand, India) and North Atlantic (Azores, Hatton and Rockall Banks, Rosemary Seamount, Bahamas); 520–2220 m depth (Studer 1891, 1901; Deichmann 1936; Williams 1995b: 128; Williams et al. 2014; present contribution).

Myopa testacea

description: The Myopa testacea Species-Group
The testacea -group is, together with the closely related polystigma -group, distinguished from all other Myopa species-groups by the following combination of characters: (1) conspicuous white hairs on the ventral occiput (i.e. white ‘cheek whiskers’); (2) the crossvein r-m is black, and usually lies within a conspicuous blackish wing marking; and (3) the absence of a conspicuous, dense and isolated wing marking in the centre of cell r4+5. Segregation of the testacea -group from the polystigma -group is more difficult, although this is normally possible through the more strongly spotted wings of the latter. In the polystigma -group there is normally blackish marking of the wing membrane along much of the length of vein M, but the marking along the outer section of this vein (M2) is usually obviously interrupted in the middle section so as to produce distinct and obviously isolated spots at the wing apex and at the junction of M2 with the outer crossvein dm-cu (Fig. 2). In the testacea -group these markings are either absent entirely (Fig. 1), or if present then the blackish coloration along vein M2 runs uninterrupted from the outer crossvein dm-cu to the wing apex. This distinction is sometimes unclear in Myopa vicaria Walker, 1849 which is currently considered to belong to the polystigma -group, but this species also differs from the testacea -group in lacking any distinct rows of setose bristles in the basal part of the undersides of tibiae 1 and 2. Myopa vicaria is usually also distinctive in having very long hairs on the body, the longest of which are clearly longer than the hind metatarsus, as well as in having markedly pale (i.e. yellowish-orange) abdominal coloration.
These two species-groups have been separated as a matter of expediency and probably do not form natural taxonomic groupings. Their maintenance may therefore eventually prove to be unsustainable. However, their separation is presently invoked in order to allow the early revision of the testacea -group.
As far as can be ascertained, all species of the testacea -group are univoltine and fly mainly in the spring months, although at higher altitudes and in northern areas especially, the flight period may extend until July or later. The testacea -group appears to be confined to the Palaearctic region.

Ectmetopterus Reuter, 1906: 59 [gen. nov. type species: Ectmetopterus angusticeps Reuter, 1906 by monotypy (junior synonym of Halticus micantulus Horváth, 1905)]; Oshanin, 1910: 802 (cat.); Reuter, 1910: 147 (cat.); Hsiao, 1942: 253 (key); Carvalho, 1952: 73 (cat.); Carvalho, 1955: 65 (key); Carvalho, 1958: (10 cat.); Ectmetopterus Tatarnic and Cassis, 2012: 596.
Diagnosis. Generally recognized by their macropterous or brachypterous forms, shining, black bodycolour; sparse distribution of scale–like setae; small eyes; membrane with two closed cells or when brachypterous, without closed cells; parameres strongly projecting from pygophore, right paramere broad and flat, left paramere trifurcate, and endosoma without spicules.
Remarks. The new species has reduced wings (brachypterous form) and lack closed cells in the membrane, whereas in the generic diagnosis of Tatarnic and Cassis (2012) only macropterous forms are mentioned. Brachyptery can now be added to the generic diagnosis of the genus.

Epagoge spadicea Walsingham 1913: 212, pl. 6, fig 6; Kruse and Powell 2009: 65.
Sparganothoides spadicea; Powell 1986: 376; Powell et al. 1995: 150; Brown 2005: 564.
Diagnosis. Amorbimorpha spadicea is assigned to the genus on the basis of the unique socii/gnathos complex and the bifurcate uncus. It can be distinguished from its congeners by its massive bilobed (bone shaped) sterigma. Among unidentified material are individuals that may be conspecific with the holotype, but more collections are necessary to convincingly confirm their identity.
Description. Male. Unknown. Presumably brownish orange with a prominent, forked uncus as others in the species group.
Female. Head, Thorax: Frons and vertex tawny reddish; antennae fulvous; labial palpus tawny reddish, ca. 3 times diameter of compound eye. Thorax: Reddish brown. Forewing length 13.0 mm; n = 1. Ground color brick reddish brown, pattern elements well defined but not strongly contrasting with ground color; hindwing shining straw white. Abdomen: Genitalia (Fig. 14; slide #4729; BMNH; Mexico, Guerrero, Omilteme, 8000’, viii, H. H. Smith; n = 1) with papillae anales parallel-sided, broadly rounded posteriorly and anteriorly; sterigma plate broad, posterior and anterior surfaces gently concave, heavily sclerotized; ductus bursae moderate in length, widened anteriorly; corpus bursae large, rounded; signum long, narrow, acutely pointed at each end, about three fourths width of corpus bursae.
Type material. Holotype: Female: MEXICO: GUERRERO: Omilteme, 8000’, viii, H.H. Smith (BMNH).
Biology. This species is recorded from August at high elevations in southwestern Mexico.
Remarks. Specimens in the BMNH were not examined by the author, and the diagnosis and re-description are based on the original description and on photographs and extensive notes taken by J.A. Powell. An additional female determined by Meyrick as Sparganothis spadicea (BM 11311, #4729) is in too poor of condition to provide an adequate comparison.

Distribution
China: Fujian Province, known only from the (now lost) holotype.
Remarks
The details of the aedeagal structures of this species are still unknown and the type material is lost (Wu 1948; Du et al. 1999; Yang & Li 2018). No new material was available for the present study, but it seems to differ from the remaining Chinese species of Chinoperla based on the absence of the short Sc of the forewing and the shape of the dark median sclerite of tergum 9 (Wu 1948: figs 8–9). Chinoperla gorohovi Sivec & Stark, 2010 from Guangdong and Vietnam is easily distinguishable from C. nigroflavata by the slender nail-shaped median sclerite with a slightly enlarged apex (Fig. 11B–D).

Neoparaphytoseius belongs to the sub-family Amblyseiinae Muma, Tribe Kampimodromini Kolodochka. The genus is mainly characterised by the following character states: dorsal shield seta S 4 absent; seta z 4 short; setae j 3, s 4, Z 4 and Z 5 elongate, greatly thickened, strongly serrated, arising from tubercles; dorsal shield smooth, lateral margin with or without incision at level of setae s 4, and with posterior margin rounded; leg IV with three strong macrosetae; spermatheca with calyx cup- or funnel-shaped (Chant & McMutrry, 2003).
