Five new myrmecolacid species (Lychnocolax drysdalensis, L. maxillaris, Myrmecolax blfurcatus, Stichotremba kuranda and S. webbiense) are described from Australia. Five further species previously described from Malaysia, New Guinea and the Philippines are also recorded from Australia. Keys to the genera of Myrmecolacidae and to the Australian species are provided.

Abstract:

AbstractA female stylopid parasitising an ant of the genus Prionomyrmex (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) is described and illustrated from Baltic amber (Eocene, 39-50 million years old). This new fossil is tentatively considered as a plesiomorphic member of the Myrmecolacidae. Recent Myrmecolacidae parasitise dual hosts: males parasitise Formicidae, while females parasitise either Mantodea or Ensifera. This is the first record of a female stylopid parasitising Formicidae. The phylogenetic relationships of the Myrmecolacidae and the origin of their unique dual host relationship are discussed.

Abstract:

In a phylogenetic study of the insect order Strepsiptera, the peculiar paleotropical genus Lychnocolax Bohart, 1951 was recovered as the sister group to Stylopidae + Xenidae rather than as nested among the Myrmecolacidae (McMahon et al., 2011). Accordingly, the genus was removed from the myrmecolacids and placed in a family of its own (Kathirithamby & Engel, 2014). Kathirithamby & Engel (2014) erroneously attributed the family-group name to Bohart (1951) and therefore provided nothing more than diagnostic traits in the form of a dichotomous key to families.

An overview of the order Strepsiptera in Colombia is provided. The family Halictophagidae is recorded for the first time based on a female parasitizing a treehopper Ceresini (Membracidae). Strichotrema beckeri is a new record for the country. The ant genus Megalomyrmex is documented as a new host for Caenocholax fenyesi. A short review of the ants parasitized by Strepsiptera in the Neotropics is presented. Currently, the order in Colombia is known for the families Halictophagidae, Myrmecolacidae and Stylopidae.

Abstract:

Myrmecolacidae is a poorly documented family of Strepsiptera in China, previously only three specimens were gathered from this country. In this study, we describe Myrmecolax aranealis sp. nov. from Yunnan Province, southwestern China, after nearly 40-years hiatus. The new species can be distinguished by: (1) comparatively large body size (2.0 mm), (2) an exceptionally slender flabellum on antennomere III that extends nearly to the apex of antennomere VII, and (3) distinct hindwing venation. In addition, an updated checklist of Chinese Strepsiptera, and a revised taxonomic key to Asian Myrmecol

First results of the study of that sample are presented with descriptions of two new species of Halictophagidae: Halictophagus urucui sp. n. and Coriophagus jennyae sp. n. The latter species is the first record of Coriophagus in the Western Hemisphere; the genus distribution had been limited so far to Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and the Solomon Islands.

AbstractThe only known fossil strepsipteran first-instar larva from Eocene brown coal is re-examined and redescribed, and photographs together with a detailed interpretative illustration are presented. The original preparation of the minute larva in a 1-mm-thick piece of brown coal of the Geisel valley precludes a detailed examination. After remounting, additional details of the larva are recognisable. A cladistic analysis of 60 morphological characters of 24 recent first-instar strepsipteran larva and the fossil larva confirm the placement in Strepsiptera and in Stylopidia with good support.
