Abstract The rare ant-loving beetle genus Syntectodes Reitter of the tribe Tmesiphorini (Pselaphinae: Pselaphitae) contains three species distributed in Sri Lanka, the Maldives, and Australia. Here, a fourth member, Syntectodes politus Yin, new species, from the Himalaya Mountains of Nepal is described and illustrated.

Abstract Aleochara verecunda Sharp, 1876 was considered a species inquirenda in the latest revision of the Brazilian Aleochara (Aleochara) Gravenhorst, 1802 (Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae). However, recently collected specimens identified as A. verecunda are here reported from Acre and Pará, two states in the Brazilian Amazon region. The species is easily distinguished from the other Brazilian A. (Aleochara) species by the two first antennomeres (scape and pedicel), which are much lighter in color than the others.

Abstract We describe a distinctive new genus of Lophocateridae, Melyronyxa Gimmel and Leschen, new genus, based on two species from Australia, Melyronyxa monteithi Gimmel and Leschen, new species (type species; Queensland) and Melyronyxa pubescens (Blackburn, 1891), new combination (New South Wales, South Australia, Victoria). Melyronyxa shares a number of characters with and is the putative sister genus of Peltonyxa Reitter, 1876, but may be distinguished by the elytra with irregular punctation and lacking costae and the body covered with erect, slender setae. We also provide clarifications on recently published commentary on the phylogeny and classification of Lophocateridae and on the generic placement of Lophocateres pilosus Olliff, 1883.

Abstract The aim of this study is the quantitative assessment of temporal variations in the composition and structure of a nocturnal flying beetle community in northeastern North America. In southern Québec (Canada), we collected by blacklight trapping a total of 33,382 individuals representing 625 Coleoptera species or morphospecies belonging to 63 families from a grassland at Scotstown during six years (2007–2012). Carabidae and Staphylinidae were the most abundant families and had the highest species richness. This blacklight trapping throughout the April–September period over many years provides critical information for assessments of beetle diversity in southern Québec, based on 1) the large proportion of species collected in small numbers (1–2 adults), 2) nearly 60% of species flying for only 1–3 months over six years, and 3) the large proportion of dominant/subdominant species in spite of strong year-to-year fluctuations in the relative abundance of species. Consequently, light trapping investigations in the future should be extended across many years to improve the inventory of species in a region, aid in the evaluation of the rarity of some Nearctic species, and study long-term effects of certain environmental factors (e.g., anthropogenic disturbance, climatic changes). We also studied the seasonal flight pattern for the 57 most abundant species (at least 100 individuals) including two eudominant species, Bembidion versicolor (LeConte) (Carabidae) (7.5% of the total catches) and Ectopria nervosa (Melsheimer) (Psephenidae) (6.8%); the flight peak of many species was during mid-summer. We determined the sex ratio for 23 abundant species; 12 species presented a female-biased sex ratio.

Oxyporus bifasciarius Zheng, Li, and Liu, 2010 was originally described from a female specimen from Yunnan, China. Based on 17 male and three female specimens, we provide the first description of the male of O. bifasciarius (Fig. 1) with the following data: CHINA: Sichuan, Jiulong County, 28°57′N, 101°34′E, 3,340 m, living in fungi in shrubwood (Fig. 2), 6 August 2020, Tang Ting and Xiong Chao. This is also the first record of this species from Sichuan Province. All specimens are deposited in the Insect Collection of China West Normal University (CWNU). Terminology of the main parts of the endophallus follows Tokareva et al. (2021). The following abbreviations, based on Senda (2021), are used: AL—antennal length; AW—abdominal maximum width; BL—body length, apex of the clypeus to apex of the abdomen; EL—elytral maximum length; ESL—elytral suture maximum length; EW— elytral maximum width; EYL—eye maximum length; FBL—forebody length (HL + PL + EL); HL—head length, apex of clypeus to posterior margin of head capsule; HW—head maximum width; PL—pronotal maximum length; PW—pronotal maximum width; TL—temple maximum length. All body measurements are in millimeters (mm).

Abstract We report the first biosecurity surveillance detections of the adventive cerambycid beetle Nathrius brevipennis (Mulsant) by the Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry. The detections in panel traps near the port of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia are a result of ongoing pest monitoring by the department's National Border Surveillance program. Nathrius brevipennis adults were detected at three separate trap sites over three successive summers (2019–2022), which suggests that a localized population is established. Apparently native to the western Mediterranean, N. brevipennis has been introduced to other countries via the trade of manufactured wicker work and basketry articles and is now almost cosmopolitan. The species is highly polyphagous, recorded from at least 42 genera across 22 plant families. There are earlier records of N. brevipennis from the 1920s in Melbourne and Adelaide. These were misidentified as Molorchus sp., and the source of these detections is unclear. Diagnostic characters and photographs of both sexes of N. brevipennis are presented together with an extensive review of host associations and DNA barcode data based on the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene.
