We describe and illustrate a new species of pselaphine beetles, Paramaurops zagoricus sp. n., from the Zagori region of Epirus, Greece. A list summarising the distribution of Amauropini known from Greece is also provided.

The Canary Archipelago is home to two species of obligately cavernicolous assassin bugs of the genus Collartida Villiers, 1949 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae: Emesinae: Collartidini). These species are highly adapted for cave life, being blind and wingless. In the present study, we describe a new species of the genus, C. phantasma sp. nov. from the Federica mine in Gran Canaria. C. phantasma sp. nov. differs from the other two Collartida species found in the Canary Archipelago in that the male is fully winged, the female is wingless, and both sexes have well-developed eyes. We provide information regarding the new species’ habitat, its taxonomic affinities, and its ability to fly.

A new genus, Neoplokioides Štys & Baňař gen. nov. (Insecta: Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Plokiophilidae: Plokiophilinae), is established for those species of Plokiophiloides Carayon, 1974 possessing copulatory tubes in females ( = Plokiophiloides tubifer-group sensu Štys, 1991). Neoplokioides includes the Afrotropical species N. tubifer (Carayon, 1974) comb. nov. (type species), N. biforis (Carayon, 1974) comb. nov., and N. raunoi sp. nov. from Eastern Madagascar. The female paragenitalia of N. raunoi are described and illustrated. All specimens of N. raunoi were collected as free living in evergreen rain forests, not associated with spider or embiid webs. Key to species of Plokiophiloides and Neoplokioides is provided, and their biology, zoogeography, relationships and female genital systems are discussed. Zanra vaovao iray, Neoplokioides Štys & Baňař gen. nov. (Insecta: Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Plokiophilidae: Plokiophilinae) dia nametraka karazam-biby ireo Plokiophiloides Carayon 1974, izay manana fantsona voavitrana hoan’ny vavy ( = Plokiophiloides tubifer-group Štys 1991). Neoplokioides dia ahitana ny karazan N. tubifer, izay karazana (Carayon, 1974) comb. nov., N. biforis (Carayon, 1974) comb. nov., sy N. raunoi sp. nov, izay hita ao antsinanan’i Madagasikara. Ny vavy izay mana karazam-pananahana hafa N. raunoi dia voafaritra sy voaporofo mazava tsara. Ireo santionany rehetra ny N. raunoi ireo,dia hita sy nangonina tao amin'ny ala tropikaly maintso sy morana mandavan-taona, tsy ampifandraisina amin'ny hala na na tranon-kala. Ireo karazana toro-dala hoan’ny Plokiophiloides sy Neoplokioides ireo dia voaporofo, sy ireo toe-batany, ireo toe-taniny sy ny faritra misy azy, ary ny rafitra ifandraisana fivavin’ny vavy dia efa voaresaka ihany koa.

A new genus and species of Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Enicocephalomorpha: Aenictopecheidae: Aenictopecheinae, Ulugurocoris grebennikovi gen. et sp. n., based on micropterous females from Tanzania, Uluguru Mts, Budunki, is described and differentiated. The males are probably macropterous. Some general aspects of morphology of U. grebennikovi are discussed in a broader context, such as presence of cephalic trichobothria (suggested to be a groundplan character of Heteroptera), presence of "gular sulci" (suggested to have an ecdysial function), lack of cephalic neck (symplesiomorphy with other Hemiptera), presence of posterior lobe of pronotum associated with the epimeroid (a new term for so called "proepimeral lobe"), and presence of notopleural sulcus on the propleuron. Diagnostic characters of the Aenictopecheinae are summarized and distribution of their seven genera is reviewed. Ulugurocoris grebennikovi is the first representative of the basal family Aenictopecheidae in the Afrotropical Region. The type locality is situated in the Eastern Arc Mountains (Tanzania), a recently identified hotspot of Afrotropical diversity characterized by a high degree of endemism caused by high rates of speciation combined with low rates of extinction. A brief characterization of the area is provided.

Mangabea troglodytes sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae: Emesinae) is described based on four specimens collected in a cave of the Namoroka Karstic System, Madagascar, and deposited in the Collection of the Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris. The dorsal habitus as well as diagnostic characters of male and female genitalia are extensively illustrated and imaged. A key to species of the genus Mangabea Villiers, 1970 is provided and the degree of cave specialization of the new species is discussed.
