TL;DR: The fauna of Iranian Anthicidae and pediline Pyrochroidae (Coleoptera) is summarized in this paper and three new synonyms are proposed.
Abstract: The fauna of Iranian Anthicidae and pediline Pyrochroidae (Coleoptera) is summarized in this paper. A total of 132 species from 19 genera and four subfamilies (Anthicinae, Notoxinae, Steropinae, and Tomoderinae) of Anthicidae and two species of Pedilinae are listed. Three new synonyms are proposed: Anthicus armatus Truqui, 1855 = A. pseudoarmatus Telnov, 2008 syn. nov., Notoxus hirtus LaFerte-Senectere, 1849 = N. caucasicus Pic, 1900 syn. nov., Stricticomus rufithorax (LaFerte-Senectere, 1849) = Anthicus transcaspicus var. subnotata Pic, 1910 syn. nov. One new combination is made: Nitorus unifasciatus (Desbrochers des Loges, 1875) comb. nov. (from Pseudoleptaleus Pic, 1900). Thirteen species are reported for the fauna of Iran for the first time: Anthicus armatus Truqui, 1855, A. episcopalis Pic, 1903, A. quadrispilus Marseul, 1879, Cyclodinus reitteri (Pic, 1892), Leptaleus klugii klugii LaFerte-Senectere, 1849, Stricticomus araxicola (Reitter, 1889), S. arcuaticeps (Pic, 1900), S. herzi (Pic, 1905), Microhoria aphaenops (Pic, 1902), Tenuicomus finalis Telnov, 2003, Notoxus hirtus LaFerte-Senectere, 1849, N. simulans simulans Heberdey, 1935, and Tomoderus scydmaenoides Reitter, 1878.

TL;DR: Three new species of false fire-coloured beetles, namely Ischalia (s. str.) ancora, I. (s.) holzschuhi, and I. laosensis spp.
Abstract: Three new species of false fire-coloured beetles, namely Ischalia (s. str.) ancora, I. (s. str.) holzschuhi, and I. (s. str.) laosensis spp. n., are described from Laos and Vietnam. Ischalia (s. str.) martensi Paulus, 1971 is redescribed from the type and additional material. Male genitalia are for the first time illustrated in I. (Eupleurida) sichuanensis Young, 2008. A key to aposematically coloured species from the Asian continent is presented for the first time. Their mimicry association is further investigated and a new case involving Anthicidae is reported.

TL;DR: The paper deals with the descriptions of three new genera, one newsubgenus and eleven new species of the superfamilies Scirtoidea, Cleroidea and Cucujoidea (suborder Polyphaga) originated from the Lowermost Eocene amber.
Abstract: The paper deals with the descriptions of three new genera, one newsubgenus and eleven new species of the superfamilies Scirtoidea, Cleroidea, and Cucujoidea (suborder Polyphaga) originated from the Lowermost Eocene amber, namely: the Scirtidae: Cyphon gallicus nov. sp. and Cyphon lobanovi nov. sp.; the Melyridae: Malachiinae Colotes constantini nov. sp. and C. impexus nov. sp.; the Nitidulidae: Cybocephalinae Pastillocenicus polyaki nov. gen., nov. sp., and P. grandiclavis nov. gen., nov. sp. and P. longifrons nov. gen., nov. sp.; the Kateretidae: Hetherelus expressus nov. sp. and Eoceniιretes yantaricus nov. gen., nov. sp.; the Smicripidae: Smicrips europeus nov. sp.; and the Anthicidae: Eurygeniinae Oisegenius antiquus nov. gen., nov. sp. The systematic positions of these new taxa and hypotheses on their bionomy are discussed.

TL;DR: The pests found in certain cacao, spice and dried fruit warehouses in London have been enumerated and new keys to the species met with in the following genera are made.
Abstract: Summary.
1
The pests found in certain cacao, spice and dried fruit warehouses in London have been enumerated. Reference has been made to some of the more important papers in which the food, habits or distribution of the species have been described.
2
To make the identification of some of the pests more easy we have made new keys to the species met with in the following genera: Carpophilus, Laemophlaeus, Dermestes, Gnathocerus and allies, Ephestia and Drosophila.
