Review of the family Bochicidae : with new species and records (Arachnida: Pseudoscorpionida)

A history of the family is presented. All of the genera and species previously assigned to the family are reviewed, and 4 new species are described: Leucohya par va from Venezuela and Guyana, Mexobisium venii from Belize and Guatemala, M. dominicanum from the Dominican Republic, and Paravachonium sprousei from Mexico. Two subfamilies are established: Bochicinae (including the genera Antillobisium, Bochica, Troglobochica, Troglohya, and Vachonium) and Leucohyinae (including Apohya, Leucohya, Mexobisium, and Paravachonium)

The genus Tyrannochthonius in the eastern United States (Pseudoscorpionida: Chthoniidae). Part I. The historical taxa

All available material pertaining to Tyrannochthonius Chamberlin from the United States east of the Mississippi River has been examined. The range of the single species already described from this area, T. floridensis Malcolm and Muchmore, is extended. Ten new species are described here; all are troglobites from caves in Alabama

The genus Tyrannochthonius in the eastern United States (Pseudoscorpionida: Chthoniidae). Part II. More recently discovered species

Twenty-five new species of Tyrannochthonius, mostly cavernicolous, are described from Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, and Tennessee. Their relations are discussed, and a key is given for all species of the genus known from the United States east of the Mississippi River

The Pseudoscorpionida of Hawaii Part I. Introduction and Chthonioidea

The history of our knowledge of pseudoscorpions in the Hawaiian Islands is traced briefly. The chthonioid pseudoscorpions already known to exist in the islands are reviewed and some additional records are reported. A new genus, Vulcanochthonius, is proposed, based on Tyrannochthonius howarthi Muchmore. Three new species are described: Tyrannochthonius oahuanus from Oahu, and Vulcanochthonius aa and V. pohakuloae from Hawaii Island. Chthonius tetrachelatus (Preyssler) and Lechytia sakagamii Morikawa are reported for the first time and complete descriptions of the Hawaiian material are given

A new \u3ci\u3eMundochthonius\u3c/i\u3e from the Dominican Republic (Pseudoscorpionida: Chthoniidae)

The genus Mundochthonius Chamberlin is generally Holarctic in distribution, with only a single species describedfrom amore southern area, namely M. mexicanus Muchmore (1973) in Nuevo Leon, northernMexico (see Harvey 1991). It is, therefore, of considerable interest to report a new species on Hispaniola in the Caribbean Sea, within the tropics. I am indebted to Michael A. Ivie for sending me the unique type specime
