Title: First description of the male of Manicapsocus (Psocodea: ‘Psocoptera’: Electrentomidae)
Authors: Yoshizawa, Kazunori
Abstract: The male of Manicapsocus alettae Smithers was recorded for the first time and its genital morphology was described and illustrated. This also represented the first report of the male of the genus. The highly specialized phallosome of M. alettae supported its close relationship with Epitroctes Mockford and Nothoentomum Badonnel, as previously suggested from general and female genital characters.2016-08-31T15:00:00ZYoshizawa, KazunoriThe male of Manicapsocus alettae Smithers was recorded for the first time and its genital morphology was described and illustrated.

Title: Four armoured scale insects from Australia, South Africa, and Mexico : Quarantine interceptions in Japan (Sternorrhyncha: Coccoidea: Diaspididae)
Authors: Takagi, Sadao
Abstract: Four species of armoured scale insects intercepted at quarantine inspection in Japan are recorded, and remarks are made about some taxonomic questions they arouse. One of the species, found on Xanthorrhoea sp. imported from Australia, is identified with Chionaspis xanthorrhoeae Fuller and trasferred to Poliaspis. Another species, on Chamelaucium from Australia, is very close to Poliaspis ceraflora Hardy and Henderson. A third species was collected on cut flowers of Paranomus, Serruria, and Berzelia from South Africa, and is identified with Rolaspis lounsburyi (Cooley). The fourth species, Opuntiaspis sp., was found on cactus fruits from Mexico, and is apparently different from the three known species of the genus.2016-08-31T15:00:00ZTakagi, SadaoFour species of armoured scale insects intercepted at quarantine inspection in Japan are recorded, and remarks are made about some taxonomic questions they arouse.

Title: Additions to ‘Notes on scale insects of the genus Aulacaspis occurring on grasses and herbs’: Some species on woody plants (Sternorrhyncha: Coccoidea: Diaspididae)
Authors: Sadao, Takagi
Abstract: Ten species of Aulacaspis, all occurring on woody plants, are examined on the supposition that the grass- and herb-associated portions of the genus have their origins in the main body of the genus occurring on woody dicotyledons. A. donacis, n.sp., occuring on Donax in Malaya, is very similar to the grass-feeding A. herbae (Green) and a. discorum Hall and Williams but is primitive as compared with the latter two in the state of the medium trullae. A. spinosa (Maskell) and A. pseudospinosa Chen et al. are revised and A. smilacis, n.sp., is described from Malaya; these three species, together with A. neospinosa Tang and A. takahashii Takagi, belong to the spinosa species group, which is associated mainly with shrubs of Smilax and herbaceous plants of orchids. Six species occurring on woody dicotyledons are described as new: A. nephelii, A. cuneiformis, A. ixonanthis, and A. tenuis from Malaya, A. pyriformis from Malaya and Palawan Is., and A. milletiae from Palawan Is.; some of these species appear to be closely related to A. labucola Takagi, one of the three known species occurring on herbaceous vines of Cucurbitaceae in Malaya2016-08-31T15:00:00ZSadao, TakagiTen species of Aulacaspis, all occurring on woody plants, are examined on the supposition that the grass- and herb-associated portions of the genus have their origins in the main body of the genus occurring on woody dicotyledons.

Abstract: Current knowledge of the phytophagous ladybird beetle Ryszardia decipiens (Crotch) was reviewed. It occurs on the mountainous areas of the Java and Bali, Indonesia, feeding of leaves of Clematis lechenaultiana and an unidentified Clematis species. Three related species, Ryszardia sumatraedecipiens Katakura, sp. nov. R. paradecipiens Katakura, sp. nov. and R. clematophila Katakura et Kahono, sp. nov., were described from Sumatra, Sulawesi and Java, respectively, on Clematis spp. and/or related Naravelia sp.2016-08-31T15:00:00ZKatakura, HaruoKahono, SihCurrent knowledge of the phytophagous ladybird beetle Ryszardia decipiens (Crotch) was reviewed.

Authors: Matsubayashi, Kei W.; Kahono, Sih; Hartini, Sri; Fujiyama, Naoyuki; Katakura, Haruo
Abstract: The phytophagous ladybird beetle Henosepilachna diekei Jadwiszczak & Wegrzynowicz was redescribed on the basis of specimens from Indonesia and other south and southeastern Asian countries, and two new species related to it were described as H. nakanoi Matsubayashi & Katakura sp. nov. and H. uenoi Matsubayashi & Katakura sp. nov. Henosepilachna nakanoi is easily discernible from congeners by the unique structure of male and female genitalia. Henosepilachna uenoi has genitalia being nearly identical with H. diekei, but the two species sympatric in Bali are separable by the habitus shape, elytral maculation pattern, and host plants. A phylogenetic analysis based on mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2(ND2) gene sequences also indicated that H. uenoi and H. diekei are genetically distinct, though very close to each other.2016-08-31T15:00:00ZMatsubayashi, Kei W.Kahono, SihHartini, SriFujiyama, NaoyukiKatakura, HaruoThe phytophagous ladybird beetle Henosepilachna diekei Jadwiszczak & Wegrzynowicz was redescribed on the basis of specimens from Indonesia and other south and southeastern Asian countries, and two new species related to it were described as H. nakanoi Matsubayashi & Katakura sp. nov. and H. uenoi Matsubayashi & Katakura sp. nov.
