“…The genitalia of a paratype male from the Sign of the Bellbird are similar to those figured, with body of right paramere a little more bulged on inner edge below apical process, and outer edge with small teeth in middle. The aedeagus was very pale and only partly inflated, but sufficiently to confirm that this species has tubular lobes similar to those of T. excelsus, and definitely lacks a spiculum and lacks the large, spiny, heavily sclerotised structure oi Niastama as figured by Ghauri (1968) and Eyles (1999a).…”

“…Exceptions for both species are body length and width, for which range only is given. Some of the structural terms used in the descriptions are illustrated in Eyles & Carvalho (1991), and some, particularly those referring to the orientation of parts of the female genitalia, in Eyles (1999a). The twoletter area codes (e.g., NN for the Nelson area) are those proposed by Crosby et al (1976Crosby et al ( , 1998.…”

Tinginotum minutum n. sp. from New Zealand and Australia, and Tinginotopsis tuberculatus n. sp. from Norfolk Island, are described and illustrated. The female genitalia for both genera are described and illustrated for the first time. The apex of the second gonapophysis in both genera differs from those previously illustrated for other species of Miridae. A contribution is made to defining the limits of the two genera, and to distinguishing between them. The known distribution of Tinginotum knowlesi (Kirkaldy, 1908) and Tinginotopsis camelus Poppius, 1915 is extended, and a host plant (Artocarpus altilis) for the former is recorded.

The Lygus-complex is one of the most taxonomically challenging groups of Miridae (Heteroptera), and its Australian fauna is poorly studied. Here we examine the Australian taxa of the Lygus-complex using morphological and molecular methods. After a detailed morphological study of the material collected throughout Australia, Taylorilygus nebulosus is transferred to Diomocoris, with the genus recorded for the first time in this country. Taylorilygus apicalis, also widely distributed in Australia, is redescribed on the basis of Australian material. The genus Micromimetus is recorded for the first time in Australia, with M. celiae, sp. nov., M. hannahae, sp. nov., M. nikolai, sp. nov. and M. shofneri, sp. nov. described as new to science. Micromimetus pictipes is redescribed and its distributional range is increased. The monophyly of the Lygus-complex and relationships within this group were tested using cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), 16S rRNA, 18S rRNA and 28S rRNA markers. The Lygus-complex has been found to be non-monophyletic. Phylogeny confirmed the monophyly of Micromimetus, and it has shown that Taylorilygus apicalis is closer to Micromimetus species than to Diomocoris nebulosus. This study is the initial step in understanding the Lygus-complex phylogeny; analyses with more taxa, more genes and morphology are needed to reveal the interrelationships within this group, and sister-group relationships of Australian taxa. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:7393D96B-2BBA-438D-A134-D372EFE7FB9E
