Trop Zool 2(2): 175-206

Abstract / Notes

Thirteen new species of the Monocelididae and three Archimonocelididae from South Sulawesi and North Australia
are described. More than 2/3 of the species belong to the subfamily Minoninae; among them, seven pertain to
the genus Duplominona, which in tropical areas seems to be the dominant genus among the Proseriata,
colonizing a wide range of habitats. [The following new species are discussed: Monocelis pictocephala,
Archiola vanderlandi, Minona hastata, M. indonesiana, M. beaglei, Duplominona muslimini, D. samalonae, D.
axi, D. makassarensis, D. sulawesiensis, D. cynaroides, D. darwinensis, Duploperaclistus garudae].
