Summary: This study proposes a new species, Octomeria imigiae, from the Atlantic Rainforest of South Brazil. The species is described, illustrated, and compared with similar species found in the same region. An identification key is provided for distinguishing this new species. Octomeria chamaeleptotes and other terete-leaved species are similar to the new species, but can be easily differentiated by their vegetative and floral morphology. In addition, this study suggests the reclassification of Octomeria riograndensis and Octomeria sancti-angeli as synonyms of Octomeria chamaeleptotes, and establishes typification designations for this species complex.

Summary: Two new leafhopper genera, Guineapona monolophos and Canopyana apicospina, are described from Indonesia. These genera are classified in the subtribe Paraboloponina based on their elongate antenna, the placement of antennal pits near the upper corners of the eyes, and the transverse striations or carinae on the anterior margin of the crown.

Summary: This study reassesses the taxonomic boundaries of the obscure genus Bubalopa endemic to the Northern Andes, providing identification keys, species redescriptions, illustrations, and distribution maps for the three species that constitute the genus. Immatures of Hyphinoe obliqua and B. furcata are described for the first time, with notes on their life history. A nomenclatural change is proposed for Hyphinoe punctorum, previously included in Bubalopa, which is now considered a junior synonym of Eualthe punctum.

Summary: Forests in tropical mountains are crucial habitats for odonate biodiversity. Odonate assemblages in the Tatama Mountains in Colombia showed highest richness at lower elevations, with a higher number of endemic species in forests. Richness and endemism decreased with elevation, while forest odonates had narrower elevation ranges.
