Abstract
ABSTRACT: Triozocera longipalpis n. sp. is described as the first species in this genus from Oman and the Middle East. This species is readily separated from other species of Triozocera due to its unusually long and curved maxillary palp. Mengenilla arabica is reported for the first time from Oman and was previously only known from two collections, one from Saudi Arabia and one from Kuwait.

Contributions are accepted on any of the aspects of systematics and taxonomy of insects. This includes: taxonomic revisions, phylogenetics, biogeography and faunistics, and descriptive morphology of insects. Taxonomic papers describing single species are acceptable if such a study is sufficiently justified, however, comprehensive studies that provide a comparative, integrated study of insect systematics and taxonomy will get priority.
