Ligia exotica Roux, 1828 was originally described based on specimens collected on a ship that came from Cayenne in French Guiana, and has been known to be widely distributed in the world. In Japan this species is the most common in Ligia, and two forms of L. exotica inhabit Osaka Bay, central Japan. To reveal the accurate scientific names of the two forms, we examined not only the detailed morphology but also 16S rRNA and NaK nucleotide sequences, together with L. exotica from another Japanese locality and the related species, L. shinjiensis Tsuge, 2008. As a result, three species, Ligia exotica, L. furcata sp. nov. and L. laticarpa sp. nov., are recognized in four localities, and L. shinjiensis is synonymized with L. exotica. Ligia exotica is characterized by the dentate lacinia mobilis on the right mandible and the appendix masculina lacking a projection. Ligia furcata and L. laticarpa are also characterized by the furcate propodus of the male pereopod 1 and the appendix masculina with an angular projection, and the swollen carpus of the male pereopod 1 and the appendix masculina with a rounded projection, respectively. The three species are distinguishable from one another mainly based on the shapes of pereopods 1–3 in both sexes and the appendix masculina of male. The 16S rRNA analysis confirms the results of the morphological study, and reveals that L. exotica and L. laticarpa also inhabit all over the world (e.g., East Asia, Southeast Asia, India, Africa, the Americas and Hawaii), and China and South Korea, respectively.
Ligia exotica Roux，1828 年，最初是根据一艘来自法属圭亚那卡宴的船上采集的标本描述的，目前已知该物种广泛分布于世界各地。在日本，该物种是 Ligia 中最常见的一种，有两种形态的 L. exotica 栖息在日本中部的大阪湾。为了揭示这两种形态的准确学名，我们不仅研究了它们的详细形态，还研究了它们的 16S rRNA 和 NaK 核苷酸序列，同时还研究了日本另一地点的 L. exotica 和相关种 L. shinjiensis Tsuge，2008。结果，在四个地点发现了三个物种，即 Ligia exotica、L. furcata sp.Ligia exotica 的特征是右下颚上有齿状的裂片，男性盲肠没有突起。Ligia furcata 和 Laticarpa 的特征还分别是雄性围足 1 的毛状喙和男性盲肠有角状突起，以及雄性围足 1 的膨胀腕和男性盲肠有圆形突起。这三个种的区别主要基于雌雄鱼的第 1-3 节围足和雄鱼的男性盲肠的形状。16S rRNA 分析证实了形态学研究的结果，并发现 L. exotica 和 L. laticarpa 还分别栖息于世界各地（如东亚、东南亚、印度、非洲、美洲和夏威夷）以及中国和韩国。

The spider genus Audifia Keyserling, 1884 currently comprises three described species, two species from Brazil and one from Guinea-Bissau and Congo. In this paper the male of an Audifia species is illustrated for the first time and new records are presented for the genus. Audifia laevithorax Keyserling, 1884 is recorded for the first time from Bolivia, and new record from Amazonia, Brazil is reported. The male Audifia semigranosa Simon, 1895 is described and illustrated for the first time and new record from Brazil is presented.

The Philippine archipelago houses an incredibly diverse biota, among which are 122 species of pygmy grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae). Many of them belong to genera without proper taxonomic assignment and some genera, e.g., Bolivaritettix are so speciose and ill-defined that working with them is practically impossible. Here, we make a step toward the resolution of these problems by describing a new genus, Storozhenkotettix gen. nov. for Bolivaritettix amphinotoides, resulting in a new combination, S. amphinotoides comb. nov. This species does not seem to be closely related to the type species of Bolivaritettix, but rather to Trusmaditetrix, which is a member of the tribe Trusmaditetrigini. We provide new records of S. amphinotoides comb. nov., together with photographs of living specimens and habitat descriptions. The species was observed along the edges of montane forests and in the disturbed parts within forests. It seems to prefer partially shaded humid habitats.

The trapdoor spider genus Eucteniza Ausserer, 1875 is distributed in North America, with most diversity in Mexico. In this work, a new species is described from the Chamela-Cuixmala Biosphere Reserve, Jalisco, Mexico: Eucteniza cuixmala sp. nov., was collected from a dry tropical deciduous forest in the western coast of Mexico. The species is described only from the male holotype. Of the 14 species of Eucteniza described so far, eight have been described based only on the male holotype. The description of this new species increases the diversity of the genus to 15 known species, 14 of which are found in Mexico, two in the USA, and one in both countries: E. relata (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1895). In addition, we provide an amended taxonomic identification key for males of the genus.

The new genus differs morphologically from all known braconine genera with bifurcate tarsal claws (Mesobracon group of genera) by having the metasoma smooth, the first metasomal tergite more than 2.6 × longer than wide medially, with its lateral areas largely reduced and without crenulations.
