Plator soastus sp. nov. of the spider family Trochanteriidae Karsch, 1879 is described and illustrated on the basis of female specimens collected in the Swat Valley, representing the first record of the genus in Pakistan and its (north) westernmost record for the whole known range. Material of both sexes of P. pandeae Tikader, 1969 from northern India is also illustrated, and new morphological terms are proposed for certain sclerites of the male palp.

Henri de Saussure described 20 species currently placed in the family Anaplectidae, some of them in collaboration with Leo Zehntner. These species are listed alphabetically with an account of the type specimens in the Muséum d'histoire naturelle de Genève. The location of type specimens in other museums is given where known. The current binominal combination for each species is provided.

The work describes Coleophora santonici Baldizzone & Takács, sp. nov., a species bred from Artemisia santonicum L., 1753 (Asteraceae) in Hungary. The new species belongs to the C. ptarmicia Walsingham, 1910 group based on shared features of the genitalia, and is most similar to C. santolinella Constant, 1890. Biological data on the life cycle, larval case and habitats of the species are provided and illustrated. COI barcode sequences were also obtained for Coleophora santonici and loaded into the BOLD System and NCBI gene bank.

Micropeplus shergyla, a new species of the Staphylinoides group and the first species of Micropeplinae from Tibet, is described, illustrated, and compared with geographically close and morphologically similar congeners.

The Apamea fasciata (Leech, 1900) species complex is revised, five new species, A. norbertkeili (Nepal), A. stangelmaieri (Nepal), A. bernhardmayi (India, Khasis), A. ploessli (Taiwan) and A. ericmetzleri (Nepal) are described.

Woodlice (Isopoda: Oniscidea) represents a group of arthropods that has been neglected in Switzerland. The last comprehensive review on Swiss woodlice was published more than a century ago. In the present work, we update the checklist of woodlice in Switzerland and provide information on the distribution of each species as well as further remarks. We considered information on recent records of woodlice from different regions and habitats of Switzerland and present new species records, which are mainly based on a survey of heated greenhouses in nine botanical gardens and other institutions across Switzerland and a field survey in the Swiss National Park. Altogether, we found six new species for Switzerland. Five of them are exotic species, captured so far exclusively in heated greenhouses: Reductoniscus costulatus Kesselyák, 1930, Venezillo parvus (Budde-Lund, 1885), Chaetophiloscia cellaria (Dollfus, 1884), Nagurus cristatus (Dollfus, 1889), Buddelundiella cataractae Verhoeff, 1930b, and Miktoniscus linearis (Patience, 1908). Thus, the updated checklist of terrestrial woodlice in Switzerland comprises 50 species.

The jumping spider genus Tanzania Koçak & Kemal, 2008, which was previously only known from Africa, is recorded from Asia for the first time. The detailed morphology-based description and illustrations of a new species, T. yellapragadai sp. nov. (♂♀) from the Gujarat State of India, are provided.

Most of the species of the Liphistius birmanicus-group are revised on the basis of genital morphology and an identification key to all species is given. Twelve species are recognized: seven previously known, five new. Liphistius metopiae Schwendinger, sp. nov. from northern Thailand, and L. tung Schwendinger, sp. nov., L. ferox Schwendinger & Huber, sp. nov., L. cupreus Schwendinger & Huber, sp. nov. and L. platnicki Schwendinger & Huber, sp. nov. from eastern Myanmar are described from both sexes. New males and females of L. birmanicus Thorell, 1897, L. pinlaung Aung et al., 2019 and L. pyinoolwin Xu et al., 2021 from the type localities are illustrated. A new locality each for L. birmanicus and for L. pinlaung is reported; additional taxonomic characters of the type specimens of L. lahu Schwendinger, 1998 are shown. Illustrations of intraspecific variation among the new specimens and information on their biology are given. The presumed relationships within the birmanicus-group and between this group and other species groups in Liphistius are discussed. Lateral pockets in the uterus externus, a previously overlooked structure of unknown function in the female genitalia of Liphistius species, are illustrated.
