“…Up to now, only six genera and 12 species were reported from mainland China (Denis 1929; Stach 1964; Yue and Yin 1999; Wang 2003; Xiong et al 2005; Ma and Chen 2008; Luo and Chen 2009; Jiang and Zhang 2012; Jiang et al 2012; Luo and Palacios-Vargas 2016; Wang et al 2016). The tribe is diversified in all regions sampled so far, but huge areas have never been sampled and the knowledge of Chinese fauna of Lobellini can be considered as very incomplete.…”

Three species of the subfamily Neanurinae (Collembola: Neanuridae) are recorded from Tianmu Mountain, Zhejiang Province, east China. Two of them, Lobellina fusa sp. n. and Paralobella tianmuna sp. n., are new to science and described in this paper. Lobellina fusa sp. n. can be recognized by the presence of six teeth on mandible and the fusion of dorsointernal tubercles on the head. Paralobella tianmuna sp. n. is characterized by a mandible with seven teeth, the lateral tubercle of Abd. II–III respectively with 7 (6+s) chaetae. Crossodonthina bidentata Luo & Chen, 2009 is widely distributed in the mountain from 300 to 1500 m a.s.l.

“…Morphologically, it is distinguished by the following combination of characters: blue body pigment absent, strong reduction in labral chaetae, 3 + 3 ocelli or ocelli absent, cephalic antennal and frontal tubercles separate and abdomen VI distally bilobed (Cassagnau 1989; Deharveng & Greenslade 1992). The highest species richness of the tribe has been recorded in East and Southeastern Asia; consequently, this region has been considered as its centre of origin (Yosii 1976; Cassagnau & Deharveng 1984; Deharveng & Weiner 1984; Cassagnau 1989; Deharveng & Suhardjono 2000; Zhi‐Chun & Jian‐Xiu 2008; Jiang et al 2012; Luo and Palacios‐Vargas 2016; Smolis 2017; Ji‐Gang et al 2018).…”

Two new species of Neanurinae from Queensland rainforest belonging to genera Hemilobella and Sphaeronura are described and illustrated with drawings and colour photographs. Hemilobella matildae sp. nov. is characterised by elongated tubercles laterally on body and an elongated ogival labrum. Sphaeronura ameliae sp. nov. differs from other taxa in the genus in chaetotaxic features and the presence of a male ventral organ. A new record of Australonura scoparia is included. The high species richness of lowland rainforests, in which these log inhabiting saproxylic species were found, is noted, and the contribution that extreme events such as cyclones in maintaining the fallen timber habitat is emphasised. The bright colour of these species may be caused by sequestered pigments from the slime moulds on which they feed. The colour probably also acts as a warning to predators that individuals are distasteful. A description of the distributions, characteristics, distinctiveness and possible genesis of Australian fauna of the subfamily Neanurinae is presented, and a checklist of species and key to all Australian genera of the subfamily is included. Species in this subfamily are predominately short-range endemics so should be surveyed whenever wet forests are under threat from logging or urban expansion.

“…Regarding the actual distribution of the subfamily, the largest species diversity is observed both in tropical and temperate forests on all continents, excluding Antarctica (i.e. Yosii 1976;Cassagnau and Deharveng 1984;Deharveng and Weiner 1984;Cassagnau 1988;Deharveng 1989;Deharveng and Bedos 1992;Cassagnau 1996;Deharveng and Suhardjono 2000;Palacios-Vargas and Simón Benito 2007;Zhi-Chun and Jian-Xiu 2008; Palacios-Vargas and Deharveng 2014; Smolis and Deharveng 2015;Luo and Palacios-Vargas 2016;Ji-Gang et al 2018). Nevertheless, knowledge on global diversity of the subfamily is still insufficient and far from complete as many areas, i.e.…”

Seven new species of the subfamily Neanurinae from north-western Iran are described and illustrated in detail. Endonura agnieskaesp. nov. differs from the most similar congener, E. reticulata (Axelson, 1905), in chaetotaxic details and the arrangement of tubercles on the dorsal side of the body. Endonura annaesp. nov. can be easily recognised by its wide labrum, the absence of chaetae C on the head and the presence of a toothed claw. Endonura schwendingerisp. nov. is especially distinctive due to the absence of chaetae A and Ocp on the head and the presence of the male ventral organ. Deutonura brevisetasp. nov. is related and most similar to D. persica Smolis, Shayanmehr & Yoosefi-Lafooraki, 2018, described recently and known from Mazandran Province in Iran. The new species can be easily distinguished by the following set of features: dark pigmented body, presence of chaetae C and Dl3 on the head, absence of microchaetae on the furca rudimentary, presence of thickened macrochaetae on dorsal side of body and absence of cryptopygy. The main characteristics of Deutonura sengletisp. nov. include a white body with dark pigmented eyes, the fusion of tubercles Di and De on the first thoracic segment and the presence of the male ventral organ. Deutonura iranicasp. nov. is superficially similar to D. gibbosa Porco, Bedos & Deharveng, 2010, a species known from the Alps and Jura in Europe, but it differs in the body colour and the number of labial chaetae and chaetae (L+So) on the head. Paravietnura rostratasp. nov., the first member of this enigmatic and intriguing genus known from Iran, is characterised by an unusually elongate ogival labrum and extreme reduction of dorsal chaetotaxy. Furthermore, new records of several other species of the subfamily: Cryptonura maxima Smolis, Falahati & Skarżyński, 2012; C. persica Smolis, Falahati & Skarżyński, 2012; Deutonura persica; Endonura longirostris Smolis, Shayanmehr, Kuznetsova & Yoosefi-Lafooraki, 2017; E. paracentaurea Smolis, Shayanmehr, Kuznetsova & Yoosefi-Lafooraki, 2017; Neanura deharvengi Smolis, Shayanmehr & Yoosefi-Lafooraki, 2018; N. muscorum (Templeton, 1835) and Protanura papillata Cassagnau & Delamare Deboutteville, 1955 are given. The present study is based on the rich material collected by Antoine Senglet and loaned by Peter J. Schwendinger.
