Arubolana imula, a new stygobiont isopod genus and species of the family Cirolanidae is described from Aruba (Netherlands Antilles). The new taxon has been discovered in an artificial tunnel, used for the production of industrial water, cut into calcareous rocks from marine origin which were rather recently uplifted above sea level (90,000-500,000 years B.P.). This is the first hypogean cirolanid that becomes known from the Lesser Antilles. The quite characteristic and simplified morphology of the posterior maxillae and maxillipeds, the subterminal position of the appendix masculina, and the prehensile nature of the first and second pereiopods, distinguish the new genus very clearly from all other hypogean genera in the family Cirolanidae. The feeble... |

After a review of the morphology of the stygobiont species of Cyathura, five new species are described (one from Cuba, two from Haiti, one from Jamaica, and one from Aruba), and additional details are provided for some other species. Considerations are made on the peculiarities of the geographic distribution of the 11 stygobiont species known at present (forming a circum-Caribbean group and an Indo-Pacific one). A study of the relationships between the various species, and comparison with the non-stygobiont (marine or brackishwater) species of the genus, allows the definition of a subgenus Cyathura s. str. (for all non-stygobiont forms and two marine-interstitial ones) and of a new subgenus, Stygocyathura (containing most of the stygobiont species). In the... |

Study – never previously tackled – of male genitalia variability in Tinodes assimilis McLachlan, leads to the description of a new subspecies from the Rif of Morocco, clearly distinct from most populations from the Iberian Peninsula (although specimens from some of the southernmost provinces of Spain may show a slightly intermediate pattern, as a result of panmixy/introgression in a contact zone). As for Tinodes dives Pictet, a species whose variability had already been partly studied, the situation is more complex; the authors interpret it as a superspecies comprising three already named prospecies, one more (from Cordillera Cantabrica) being here described as new, whereas some uncertain situations are discussed. |

From Upper-Cretaceous amber discovered in Canada (Alberta) and in Siberia (Taymyr), 10 species of Trichoptera are recognized. One of them belongs to the recent genus Rhyacophila, one probably to the recent genus Holocentropus; the following new genera are described: Palaeohydrobiosis (Hydrobiosidae), Electralberta (type of the new family Electralbertidae), Archaeopolycentra (Polycentropodidae), Taymyrelectron (type of the new family Taymyrelectronidae), Praeathripsodes (Leptoceridae), Calamodontus (Calamoceratidae or Odontoceridae). One specimen is a philopotamid, and one an incertae sedis member of the Hydropsychoidea. These records represent a considerable enrichment of our knowledge of the Cretaceous caddisfly fauna, practically unknown until now.... |

The adult and “metamorphotype” Trichoptera collected in the upper hydrographie bassins of the Oronte and of the Litani (Békaa Valley, Lebanon) were studied. The collected species are listed with taxonomical and distributional remarks; the caddisfly fauna of this zone is distinct from that of the small Lebanese coastal rivers as well as from the fauna of the upper Jordan system, despite the short distances between these areas. Three new species are described: Hydroptila fonsorontina, Oxyethira assia, and Hydropsyche longindex. Notes on the zones (in a longitudinal system of running water zonation), inhabited by the different species, are supplied. |
