Hydroporus crinitisternus sp.nov. is described from south-eastern Kazakhstan and Mongolia. The species is placed in the H. planus-group of Hydroporus Clairville, 1806. This new taxon has a striking feature, particularly developed in males, which so far has not been observed in this species group nor in any other Palaearctic Hydroporus, the prosternum being provided with a tuft of long yellowish white hairs behind its anterior margin.

Kodada, J. 2001. Pedestrodryops enroedyi gen. et sp. nov., a new terrestrial, wingless dryopid from South Africa (Coleoptera: Dryopidae). Entomol. Probl. 33 (1): 37-44.

The new genus Pedestrodryops of terrestrial Dryopidae is described for P. enroedyi, new species from South Africa. The specimens were collected by sifting forest litter in Dorren Clark Natural Reserve. Pedestrodryops is characterised by the combination of the long dorsal vestiture, the sublateral pronotal sulci, the antennal configuration and by the type of antennal sensilla. Within Dryopidae, the most similar is the genus Protoparnus Sharp, 1883 from New Zealand. Taxonomically important characters are discussed and illustrated with scanning electron photographs and line drawings.

Three new species are described: O. gayosoi [Spain], O. iternuptialis [Greece], and O. preissi [Cyprus].

The species is placed in the Philonthus tenuicornis species group. It occurs sympatric with Bisnius speculicollis Solodovnikov & Schillhammer, 2000, for which an additional record is provided. The aedeagus as well as abdominal details of both sexes of the new species are illustrated.

Odochilus (Parodochilus) jani sp.nov. is described from Sabah (Borneo) and its diagnostic characters are illustrated. The holotype of O. (P.) jani sp.nov., as well as holotype and paratype No 1 of recently described O. (P.) thailandicus Rakovič, 1997 are deposited in the collection of MHNG. O.

Fedor, P. J. & Majzlan, O. 2001. On the distribution of the small earwig Labia minor (Dermaptera: Labiidae) in Slovakia. Entomol. Probl. 32 (1): 68.

The small earwig Labia minor (Linnaeus, 1758), with an almost worldwide cosmopolitan distribution, represents the only earwig of the Labiidae subfamily in Slovakia. It occurs in various meadows, fields, margins of forests and often in garden manure. Despite its widespread presence in Slovakia, it does not seem to be a common species generally and the available data on its distribution here are presented in this article.

Hernando, C., Aguilera, P. & Ribera, I. 2001. Limnius stygius sp.nov., the first stygobiontic riffle beetle from the Palearctic Region (Coleoptera: Elmidae). Entomol. Probl. 32(1): 69-72.

The first Palearctic stygobiontic species of Elmidae, Limnius stygius sp.nov., is described from a karstic river in SW Morocco. It has the typical morphology of other subterranean elmids: it is weakly pigmented, microphthalmic, brachypterous, with an extended plastron, and has a flattened and slender body. A single male was found in an upwelling zone in an intermittent river, which originates in the nearby cave of Win-Timdouine.

A new species, Onyxacalles boehmei, as a sibling species to Onyxacalles pyrenaeus (Boheman, 1844) is described. A neotype of Onyxacalles pyrenaeus (Boheman, 1844) is designated. Differential diagnosis and geographical distribution of both sibling species, illustrations and key to all four Central European Onyxacalles species are given. Moreover, the practical quideline to differential diagnosis of Onyxacalles pyrenaeus-group is included.

The eggs and four nymphal instars of Short-winged Earwig Apterygida media (Hagenbach, 1822) are described. Individual instars are defined and keyed by the number of antennal and tarsal segments, and the measurement of body characters. An identification key to the nymphs of species Labidura riparia, Apterygida media, Forficula auricularia and Chelidurella spp is provided.
