Holotype male (NMW): " IND: Uttaranchal // Teen Pani [r.], Deharadun Dist. // 30°04'20"N / 78°12'23"E // 9.XI.2006 // leg. M.A. Jäch (3)"; "left tributary of River Song // NE Doiwala // ca. 15 km ESE Dehradyn // ca. 365 m a.s.l. "; genitalia extracted and mounted on a transparent card, abdominal tergites mounted on a second transparent card; both cards pinned with the same specimen; plus red holotype label. Description. Length 4.1, width 2.1 mm. Body dark brown, oval. Antennae and legs dark brown, except protibiae, which are black, and tarsi, paler. Head: Eye margin weak, with a small denticle by insertion of antennae; with a very narrow supra-ocular sulcus. Eyes prominent. Puncturation on head uniformly fine and dense; space between punctures larger than their diameter. Pubescence long, erect, golden. Pronotum: Transvere, slightly narrower than base of elytra, lateral margins regularly and slightly curved, very finely bordered.

    Caccothryptus schillhammeri sp. n. (Fig. 2) Type locality. Alaungdaw Katthapa NP, Sagaing Division, Myanmar. Type material. Holotype male (NMW): " MYANMAR: Sagaing Division // Alaungdaw Katthapa NP // 22°19.113'N 94°28.518'E // 13.5.2003, ca. 350 m // leg. Schillhammer et al. (122)"; genitalia extracted and mounted on a transparent card, abdominal tergites mounted on the same card, pinned with the specimen; plus red holotype label. Paratypes. 5 exx (NMW): same data as holotype, with red paratype labels. Description. Holotype: length 3.7 mm, width 2.1 mm; paratypes: length 3.7-4.2 mm, width 2.1-2.2 mm. Body black, oval. Antennae, other cephalic appendages and legs dark brown, protibiae darker. Head: Eye margin weak, with a small denticle by insertion of antennae; with a very narrow supra-ocular sulcus. Eyes slightly prominent. Puncturation on head uniformly fine and very dense; space between punctures smaller than their diameter. Two types of golden pubescence, one long, erect, a second short, very dense, recumbent. Pubescence on frons orientated towards clypeum; pubescence on the lateral and basal areas orientated towards vertex. Pronotum: Transvere, slightly narrower than base of elytra, lateral margins regularly and slightly curved. Very finely bordered; border narrowing towards base, in which it becomes almost unappreciable. Puncturation similar to that on head, denser on disc, less dense on margins, very uniform; spaces between punctures wider than diameter. Two types of setae, one long (much longer than on head), erect and castaneous; a second shorter, anteriorly recumbent, golden. The recumbent setae forming a weakly defined pattern. Elytra: Disk with double puncturation, one very fine and dense, a second coarser, more irregular but with some series forming incipient 4-5 series, especially in the disc. Elytral pubescence double, similar to that of pronotum; erect setae darker, recumbent setae generally golden, but in some areas darker (colour depends on angle of incidence of light). Recumbent seta with a zig-zag pattern, orientated towards apex. Elytra bordered; border stronger in humerus and less marked apically, almost indistinguishable at apex. Membranous wings well developed. Venter: Black; abdominal ventrites with a marginal brownish area, last abdominal ventrite castaneous. Venter fully pubescence except hypomeras, which are glabrous. Prosternum strongly encased into mesosternum. Prosternum finely and densely puncturated, margins bordered; mesosternum small, finely and densely punctured; metasternum with puncturation similar to mesosternum. Puncturation simple. Glandular pores in 4th abdominal sternite only. Aedeagus (Fig. 2): Distal part of parameres and lateral sides of median lobe with a marked transverse reticulation, giving an overall dull appearance. Apex of parameres very narrow, with a deep emargination; with a denticular process in the medial part. Comparative notes. The presence of reticulation in the aedeagus is unique among the known species of Caccothryptus. Among the species of the C. compactus group, the species can be easily distinguished by its narrow parameters in ventral view (Fig. 2 B), leaving a broad space between the median lobe and the apex of the parameters (see Figs 11-14 in Hernando & Ribera 2014). Etymology. Named after Harald Schillhammer, collector of the type series and specialist in Staphylinidae (and mineralogy). Distribution. So far only known from the type locality.Published as part of Hernando, Carles & Ribera, Ignacio, 2017, Three new species of the genus Caccothryptus Sharp, 1902 from Asia (Coleoptera: Limnichidae), pp. 366-370 in Zootaxa 4243 (2) on pages 367-368, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4243.2.5, http://zenodo.org/record/39914

    Hydraena (Hydraenopsis) grebennikovi sp.n. (Figs 2, 5–6) Type locality. Forest in Pico Biao, Province of Bioko Sur, island of Bioko, Equatorial Guinea. Type material. Holotype male (NMW): "Eq. GUINEA, Bioko, // 0 3.3001, 0 0 8.6482, // 938m, 23.xii.2015, sift. // for. lit., V.Grebennikov "; " DNA voucher // IBE-AN525"; aedeagus dissected and mounted on a transparent card pinned with the specimen, plus red holotype label. DNA extraction stored in the IBE; COI with accession numbers LT707766 (COI-5', "barcode") and LT707763 (COI-3'). Paratypes. 2 males (IBE, NMW) 1 female (IBE): same data as holotype, with red paratype labels. Female paratype used for DNA extraction with voucher number IBE-AN577, mounted after extraction on a card (COI-3' accession number LT707764). One paratype male stored in absolute ethanol in the IBE. Description. Length 1.35 mm (males), 1.54 mm (female paratype); width 0.60 mm (males), 0.70 mm (female paratype). External morphology very similar to H. bubi sp.n., with no clear consistent differences. In general males are slightly smaller, with straight middle and hind tibiae (similar to that of females) and a more griseous body colouration (more reddish in H. bubi sp.n.) (Figs 1–2). Differences in surface sculpture, frontoclypeal suture or pronotum shape do not seem to be diagnostic and are difficult to systematise. Sexual variation: Aedeagus (Figs 5–6) with median lobe asymmetrical, with a double sinuation in ventral view; apex with digitiform expansions and a short, globular membranous apical piece; with two clearly visible dorsal setae. Left paramere short and stout (but longer than in H. bubi sp.n., and with longer and more robust setae); right paramere longer, with apex recurved over the median lobe. Middle and hind tibia of males straight, similar to that of females. Females with spermatheca and last abdominal segments similar to those of H. bubi sp.n. (see above). Etymology. Named after our friend and colleague Vasily V. Grebennikov, who collected the specimens as part of a systematic research on the forest litter beetle fauna of Central African mountain systems. Distribution. So far only known from the type locality. Habitat and ecology. All specimens were in the same sample as the specimens of H. bubi sp.n. (see above).Published as part of Hernando, Carles & Ribera, Ignacio, 2017, Two new terrestrial species of Hydraena Kugelann from the island of Bioko, Gulf of Guinea (Coleoptera: Hydraenidae), pp. 281-286 in Zootaxa 4238 (2) on pages 284-285, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4238.2.10, http://zenodo.org/record/34527
