Amini, S., Krolik, R., Nozari, J., Ebrahim Farashiani, M., Kazerani, F. — Ciidae are a small family of mycetophagous beetles with only fifteen species so far recorded in Iran. The occurrence of nine of them has now been confirmed. Additional 8 species belonging to 5 genera collected during the 2014– 2017 survey in the Hyrcanian Forest, North Iran, are recorded for the first time in Iran. Four species are excluded form the Iranian fauna. As a result of this study, the number of species known from Iran has increased to 19. Key words: Ciid beetles, new records, fauna, forest, fungi, Iran, Middle East. Introduction Ciidae Leach, 1819 is a cosmopolitan family of minute tree-fungus beetles comprising more than 700 described species in 51 genera worldwide (Lawrence, 2016, 2019; Souza-Gonçalves et al., 2018). There have been only limited taxonomic studies of this family with only fifteen species so far recorded from Iran (Jelínek, 2008; Amini et al., 2014; Królik, 2016; Lopes-Andrade et al., 2016, Samin et al., 2018 a, b). -

They spend most of their lives in or around polypore ba- sidiomes, which are used as a food resource and shelter by larvae and adults. The study of Neotropical ciids is incipient and there is no comprehensive work on their host fungi. The present work provides a descriptive analysis of the Ciidae fauna, its feeding habits and poly- pore hosts at a subtropical rainforest in São Francisco de Paula, southern Brazil. A discus- sion on the current knowledge of host fungi of Neotropical Ciidae is also provided. -

The new species is included in the Cis bilamellatus species-group, which comprises species with a single plate on both anterocephalic edge and anterior pronotal edge in males, females with pronotum usually widest near the posterior end and gradually narrowing anteriorly and both sexes with dual elytral vestiture. Cis mooihoekite sp. n. can be distinguished from the other South African species in the group by the pronotum devoid of a median impunctate line, pronotal plate angularly emarginate forming two small and triangular horns with acute apex and anterocephalic edge with very acute corners. -

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Neoapterocis gen. nov. is described based on two species: Neoapterocis mexicanus sp. nov. (type species) from the state of Oaxaca (Mexico); and Neoapterocis chilensis sp. nov. from Concepción Province (VIII Biobío Region), Chile. Diag- nostic characters of the genus include the distinct oval, highly convex body, small eyes and scutellum, absence of hind wings, short prosternum and metaventrite, and first abdominal ventrite longer than the next two together. Comparisons are made with other apterous and micropterous ciid genera, particularly Apterocis Perkins, Lipopterocis Miyatake, Nip- ponapterocis Miyatake and Polynesicis Zimmerman. The new genus is placed in the tribe Ciini. A key to males of the species of Neoapterocis gen. nov. is provided, together with descriptions of external morphology of adults, morphology of male genitalia of both species and the female genitalia of Neo. mexicanus sp. nov. Neoapterocis gen. nov. is the first apterous ciid genus to be described from continental lands.

SCARAB BEETLES IN HUMAN CULTURE BRETT C. RATCLIFFE Systematics Research Collections W-436 Nebraska Hall University of Nebraska Lincoln, NE 68588-0514, U.S.A. [email protected] Abstract The use of scarab beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) by primarily pre- and non-industrial peoples throughout the world is reviewed. These uses consist of (1) religion and folklore, (2) folk medicine, (3) food, and (4) regalia and body ornamentation. The use of scarabs in religion or cosmology, once widespread in ancient Egypt, exists only rarely today in other cultures. Scarabs have a minor role in folk medicine today although they may have been more important in the past. The predominant utilization of these beetles today, and probably in the past as well, is as food with emphasis on the larval stage. Lastly, particularly large or brightly colored scarabs (or their parts) are used (mostly in the New World) to adorn the body or as regalia. -

Drawings of the diagnostic structures of the new species and a key to the 14 species now included in the genus are provided. Key words: Coleoptera: Dynastinae, Pentodontini, Orizabus, taxonomy, key, Mexico Introduction Twelve species of the genus Orizabus Fairmaire are known from the southern United States, Mexico, Guatemala, and Nicaragua, but all the species occur in Mexico (Endrödi 1969, 1985; Morón 1981; Delgado-Castillo and Deloya 1990; Dechambre 1993; Ratcliffe 1994). Curatorial work of the specimens deposited in Mexican collections, as well as recent collection trips in the mountains of the state of Puebla provided specimens of two undescribed species of this genus. Drawings were made with the aid of a camera lucida and stereomicroscope, and mea- surements were obtained using an ocular micrometer or caliper. Holotypes and allotypes are deposited in the collection M.
