Douch, J.K. and Reid, A.L. 2023. A new species of Planipapillus (Onychophora: Peripatopsidae) that defies the originalconcept of its genus. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 82: 257–262. Planipapillus Reid, 1996 (Onychophora: Peripatopsidae) is a genus of peripatus or velvet worms from south-eastern Australia, consisting of 12 nominal species, unique in having a patch of reduced papillae on the heads of males. Specimens from Mt Useful, Victoria, that lack this trait were identified as a species of Planipapillus on the basis of morphological and molecular analyses in 1999 and 2001, respectively. That species is herein described as P. absonus sp. nov., and an emended diagnosis for the genus is provided to accommodate this unusual addition. The relationship between modified head papillae and mating is discussed.

Poore, G.C.B. 2023. New records, one new genus and 21 new species of Callianassidae (Crustacea, Axiidea) from the Indo-West Pacific. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 82: 167–255. The collections of ghost shrimps from the Indo-West Pacific that contributed to recent molecular phylogeny and resulting reclassification of Callianassidae (Poore et al., 2019; Robles et al., 2020) provide opportunities to review 11 genera and describe one new genus, redescribe existing species and describe 21 new species. Aqaballianassa aqabaensis (Dworschak, 2003), A. brevirostris (Sakai, 2002), A. lewtonae (Ngoc-Ho, 1994) are rediagnosed and Aqaballianassa papua sp. nov. from Papua New Guinea and Aqaballianassa seychellensis sp. nov. from the Seychelles are described as new. Three new species of Caviallianassa Poore, Dworschak, Robles, Mantelatto and Felder, 2019 are compared in a key with Caviallianassa cavifrons (Komai and Fujiwara, 2012): Caviallianassa arafura sp. nov. from the Arafura Sea, Caviallianassa riwo sp. nov. from Papua New Guinea and Caviallianassa moorea sp. nov. from French Polynesia. Callianassa thailandica Sakai, 2005 is treated as species inquirenda. No species of Cheramus Bate, 1888 occurs in the Indo-West Pacific despite the genus name having been widely used. Five species of Coriollianassa Poore, Dworschak, Robles, Mantelatto and Felder, 2019 are recognised and figured: C. sibogae (De Man, 1905), C. coriolisae (Ngoc-Ho, 2014) and new species, Coriollianassa mainbazae sp. nov. and Coriollianassa maputo sp. nov. from the Mozambique Channel, and Coriollianassa nyinggulu sp. nov. from the North West Australian slope. Darryllianassa felderi gen. et sp. nov. is described from Papua New Guinea. Necallianassa nosybeensis sp. nov. is described as a new species from Madagascar. Praedatrypaea Poore, Dworschak, Robles, Mantelatto and Felder, 2019 is rediagnosed. Thirteen species are recognised and most diagnosed; four species are described as new: Praedatrypaea jangamo sp. nov. and Praedatrypaea mozambiquensis sp. nov. from Mozambique, and Praedatrypaea mandu sp. nov. and Praedatrypaea ningaloo sp. nov. from the North West Shelf of Australia. Callianassa malaccaensis Sakai, 2002 is treated as a junior synonym of P. orientalis (Bate, 1888). A key to separate ten species of Praedatrypaea is presented. Pugnatrypaea Poore, Dworschak, Robles, Mantelatto and Felder, 2019 is rediagnosed and confined to three species. Rayllianassa Komai and Tachikawa, 2008 is rediagnosed and its species discussed. Rayllianassa amboinensis (De Man, 1888), a variable species, is rediagnosed; Callianassa ngochoae Sakai, 1999 and Callianassa sahul Poore, 2008 are treated as synonyms. Rayllianassa aurora sp. nov., Rayllianassa bifida sp. nov. and Rayllianassa huonensis sp. nov. are described as new species; the first two are associated with submerged wood at depths greater than 100 m.

Avery L., Vodopyanov S. & Wilson R.S. 2023. New species of Travisia Johnston, 1840 (Annelida, Travisiidae Hartmann-Schröder, 1971) from south-eastern Australia. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 82: 133–142. Two new species of Travisia Johnston, 1840 (Annelida, Travisiidae) are described from the continental shelf of south-eastern Australia: Travisia tribus sp. nov. and Travisia una sp. nov. Travisia olens novaezealandiae Benham, 1927 is raised to species rank as Travisia novaezealandiae Benham, 1927 new status. We describe epidermal structures using scanning electron microscopy, and discuss pygidial morphology of the two new Travisia species and distinguish an additional character. We recognise four species of Travisia recorded from Australia and include a dichotomous key to allow their identification. A separate downloadable resource provides access to an annotated morphological character list for Travisia species, a downloadable interactive key using the Delta (Descriptive Language for Taxonomy) Intkey software, and concise descriptions and minimal diagnoses and descriptions of all currently recognised species of Travisia.

The Poraniidae (Asteroidea, Valvatacea) is recorded for the first time from Australian waters at deep-sea (>200m) depths, including, at present, Australia’s deepest known asteroid occurrence from 3850 m. Three genera are reviewed, each represented by a single species, Poraniomorpha tartarus n. sp., Marginaster paucispinus Fisher 1913, and Marginaster patriciae McKnight 2006, which is reassigned to the new genus, Bathymarginaster. Comparisons with other asteroid groups similar to the Poraniidae in Australian waters is made and a key to genera of the Poraniidae is provided.

This review of the status of Australian caddisflies focuses on publications from 1982 to 2022. Information is provided on new species described in that period, new keys, new descriptions of both adults and larvae, and the distribution of families and genera from states/regions and the Northern Territory. Australia’s caddisfly fauna now totals 27 families, 111 genera and 868 species, with 97.9% of species endemic to Australia (only 19 of the 868 species are known from outside Australia, mainly from the nearby island of New Guinea – Papua New Guinea and Papua Province, Indonesia); some species also extend into New Zealand and South-East Asia. The biogeography of the Australian fauna is discussed briefly in terms of “northern” and “southern” faunal elements, faunal provinces, distributional barriers, areas of highest biodiversity and refuge areas. Northern and southern elements in the Australian Trichoptera fauna are indicated. The highest biodiversity is recorded in the following states/regions: New South Wales with 263 species, northern Queensland (N-Qld) with 248 species and Victoria with 247 species. The highest endemicity is in southern Western Australia (S-WA), with 73% endemic species, followed by N-Qld with 58% and Tasmania with 57%. The lowest numbers of species have been recorded from South Australia and S-WA, with 42 and 49 species respectively.

Memoirs of Museum Victoria 82: 71–95. Collections of Callichiridae from surveys of coral reefs and sandy shallow environments in the Indo-West Pacific, particularly Papua New Guinea and Australia, have been used to redescribe and differentiate poorly known species and/or extend the range of others. Keys are provided for identification of the Indo-West Pacific species of Corallianassa Manning, 1987 (six species) and Lepidophthalmus Holmes, 1904 (four species). The distribution of Glypturus armatus (A. MilneEdwards, 1870) now includes Tonga, within its previously known geographic range. Supplementary descriptions and illustrations are provided for Michaelcallianassa indica Sakai, 2002, Mocallichirus mocambiquensis (Sakai, 2004) and Mucrollichirus mucronatus (Strahl, 1862). The 15 Indo-West Pacific and Australian species of the genus Neocallichirus Sakai, 1988 are diagnosed with a key for identification (N. variabilis (Edmondson, 1944) excepted). N. nagoi sp. nov. is described as a new species.

The 15 Indo-West Pacific and Australian species of the genus Neocallichirus Sakai, 1988 are diagnosed with a key for identification (N. variabilis (Edmondson, 1944) excepted). N. nagoi sp. nov. is described as a new species.","PeriodicalId":53647,"journal":{"name":"Memoirs of Museum Victoria","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49205463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The hitherto monotypic genus Arenallianassa Poore, Dworschak, Robles, Mantelatto and Felder, 2019 is revised following the discovery of a new species, Arenallianassa katrinae sp. nov. from New Zealand and Tonga. The original description of the type species Arenallianassa arenosa (Poore, 1975) is augmented. The new species has been found in localised high abundance in the vicinity of shallow (111–181 m depth) hydrothermal vents at each end of the Kermadec–Tonga Volcanic Arc system. This brings the number of callianassoids in New Zealand to six.

A new genus, Skolomystax n. gen. is described to include the Australian mayflies previously assigned to the genus Centroptilum (Baetidae). Based on an integrated taxonomic analysis of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I and morphology, 12 species are assigned to this new genus, comprising two new combinations, S. elongatus (Suter, 1986) n. comb. and S. collendus (Harker, 1957) n. comb., and ten new species described in the nymphal stage: S. brevis n. sp., S. chionotos n. sp., S. dyarrbi n. sp., S. gippslandicus n. sp., S. goorudensis n. sp., S. hawkingi n. sp., S. leichhardti n. sp., S. paschei n. sp., S. tasmaniensis n. sp., and S. vulgaris n. sp. A species known only from the original description by Harker (1957) is assigned as S. collendus n. comb.; the type material is lost, so it is not treated in detail and its validity remains uncertain. Adults of S. elongatus, S. hawkingi n. sp. and S. leichhardti n. sp. are also included. Skolomystax is closely related to Apobaetis, Callibaetis, Callibaetoides and Waltzoyphius, but differs from them in the combination of a wide notch in the labrum with a basal pair of denticles, 3-segmented maxillary palps, hind wing pads present, and single gills without folds. A key to the nymphs of all species of Skolomystax, except S. collendus, is given.
