An overview of the orchid genus Corybas in Vietnam is presented. It was known to be represented by a single species, C. annamensis. In this article, we report two new records, C. himalaicus, and C. ...geminigibbus. Detailed descriptions, synonyms, type data, information on ecology and phenology, distribution and color plates are provided for all three species along with the key to their identification.
The study presents a new collection of Psocodea (Insecta) from Unguja Island (Zanzibar, Tanzania), conducted during March 3rd to 9th, 2024. Despite recent efforts to explore Psocodea fauna in ...equatorial and tropical Africa, comprehensive studies in East Africa, particularly along the east coast and inland areas, remain limited. This research contributes to filling these gaps by documenting 16 species, including nine new records for the Zanzibar autonomic region and seven new records for Tanzania. Notably, one species (Nanopsocus sp.) may potentially be new to science.
New records for Türkiye of Ceutorhynchinae weevils are reported. Poophagus sisymbrii (Fabricius, 1977) is reported for the first time from Türkiye. In addition, Datonychus melanostictus (Marsham, ...1802), Pelenomus commari (Panzer, 1795) and Rhinonchus bruchoides (Herbst, 1784), already known from the Anatolian part of Türkiye, are recorded for the first time from Turkish Thrace. Additional localities of a few species already known from Thrace region are also given.

Latreille, 1809 species previously recorded in Iraq;

Eversmann, 1852 newly recorded species. A brief re-description of ...each is given, supported by photographs; as well as a provided for their global distribution.
The Japanese species of the genus Leptobatopsis Ashmead, 1900 are revised. A total of eight species are recorded from Japan, including a new species, Leptobatopsis yaima sp. nov., and three species, ...L. annularis Kasparyan, 2007, L. koreana Lee & Kang, 2015, and L. nigricapitis Chandra & Gupta, 1977, newly recorded from Japan. A Chinese species L. annularis Sheng & Sun, 2013 is a homonym of L. annularis Kasparyan, 2007. Both species are clearly different, and we therefore propose a new replacement name for the former, L. sinica (nom. nov.). Leptobatopsis daedeokensis Lee & Kang, 2015 is newly synonymised with L. annularis Kasparyan, 2007. The taxonomic position of L. nigra immaculata Momoi, 1971 is changed from a subspecies of L. nigra Cushman, 1933 to separate species, L. immaculata. The female of L. badia Momoi, 1970 is newly described. A key to the Japanese species of this genus is proposed.
A new spider species Systaria minhnguyeni sp. n. (♂ ♀) is described here, and the genus Systaria Simon 1897 is recorded for the first time in Vietnam. Detailed descriptions, photographs of copulatory ...organs, and somatic features are also provided.
This study reports on a collection of mites of the genus Onchodellus from different cities in Türkiye (Adana, Gümüşhane, Giresun, Tokat). Four species were identified in the genus-Onchodellus ...acrophilus sp. nov. O. circularis sp. nov. and O. kosensis sp. nov. are described as new, and O. karawaiewi (Berlese, 1920) is a new record from Türkiye.
