    A comprehensive revision of the Subfamily Parandrinae (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) from the Afrotropical Region is presented. Two new genera are described: Adlbauerandra and Meridiandra. The known species from the Afrotropical Region are excluded from Parandra Latreille, 1802, which resulted in the following new combinations: Acutandra beninensis (Murray, 1862), A. comoriana (Fairmaire, 1895), A. gabonica (Thomson, 1858), Adlbauerandra morettoi (Adlbauer, 2004) and Meridiandra capicola (Thomson, 1861). Eighteen new species are described: Acutandra amieti, A. barclayi, A. camiadei, A. dasilvai, A. delahayei, A. gaetani, A. garnieri, A. grobbelaarae, A. hugoi, A. jolyi, A. leduci, A. leonardi, A. lucasi, A. noellae, A. oremansi, A. plenevauxae, A. quentini, and A. vingerhoedti. The species Parandra comoriana Fairmaire, 1895 is revalidated and a lectotype is designated. Parandra beninensis Murray, 1862 and Parandra conradti Kolbe, 1893 are revalidated. A lectotype is designated for Parandra gabonica Thomson, 1858 as the designation by Quentin and Villiers (1975) was considered as invalid. Keys are presented to separate genera and all species of African Parandrinae from each other. Illustrations are provided for all the species including many special characters used in the keys

    Abstract The peculiar Prioninae genus Vietetropis Komiya, 1997 comprised up to now a single species, V. viridis, described at the same time. A new species has been recently found in southern China in the Guangxi province. It is described under the name V. cheni sp. nov. and compared to the original type species of the genus V. viridis. Résumé Le genre particulier de Prioninae Vietetropis Komiya, 1997 ne comprenait jusqu'à présent qu'une seule espèce, V. viridis, décrite au même moment. Une nouvelle espèce a récemment été découverte dans le sud de la Chine, dans la province du Guangxi. Elle est décrite sous le nom de V. cheni sp. nov. et comparée à l'espèce-type du genre V. viridis

    Three new species and one new genus are described: Psyrassa lisitskyi sp. nov., from Peru (Elaphidiini); Ophtalmibidion antonkozlovi sp. nov., from Colombia (Neoibidionini); and Nappella gen. nov., is proposed to N. antonkozlovi sp. nov., from Peru (Calliini). Epectasis mexicana Breuning, 1954 is redescribed, and figured for the first time, and recorded for Colombia. Psyrassa lisitskyi is included in a modified couplet from a previous key. A key to species of Ophtalmibidion and genera of Calliini are provided. Chorenta biramiguelus is recorded for Peru

    peer reviewedPlusieurs interceptions ou signalements inédits d’un cérambycide d’origine asiatique, Trichoferus campestris (Faldermann, 1835), ont été effectués très récemment en Europe, notamment en France et pour la première fois en Belgique. L’établissement de cette espèce envahissante a déjà été constaté dans plusieurs pays européens ainsi qu’au Canada et aux États-Unis. Une synthèse des informations géographiques, biologiques et comportementales, ainsi qu’une liste des plantes hôtes de T. campestris, sont données. Le contexte de son interception en Belgique est exposé et discuté plus largement.Several interceptions or new reports of a cerambycid of Asian origin, Trichoferus campestris (Faldermann, 1835), have been made very recently in Europe, particularly in France and for the first time in Belgium. The establishment of this invasive species has already been observed in several European countries as well as in Canada and the United States. A summary of geographical, biological and behavioral information, as well as a list of host plants of T. campestris, are given. The context of its interception in Belgium is exposed and discussed more widely

    A new species of Autocrates Thomson, 1860, A. ivanovi n. sp., is described from Lam Dong province in southern Vietnam. The new species is illustrated and compared to A. maqueti Drumont, 2006, its closest taxon inside the genus and to A. vitalisi Vuillet, 1912 which also inhabits southern Vietnam. An actualized systematic list of species composing the genus Autocrates is provided.On décrit une nouvelle espèce d'Autocrates Thomson, 1860, A. ivanovi n. sp., de la province de Lam Dong, dans le sud du Vietnam. La nouvelle espèce est illustrée et comparée avec A. maqueti Drumont, 2006, l'espèce la plus proche dans le genre et avec A. vitalisi Vuillet, 1912 qui habite aussi le sud de Vietnam. Une liste systématique actualisée des espèces du genre Autocrates est incluse.Se describe una nueva especie de Autocrates Thomson, 1860, A. ivanovi n. sp., de la provincia de Lam Dong, sur de Vietnam.
