A new species of the genus Hypsilara Maier \& Spangler, 2011, collected in the Eastern Venezuela, is described and illustrated. We provide habitus photographs, detail drawings of both male and female genitalia, and description of some morphological features, which were omitted in the description of the genus. Included are also remarks on the distribution and genetic distance of the Hypsilara species and possible relations to other South American Larainae.

Two mitochondrial (cytochrome oxidase subunit I, 16S RNA) and one nuclear (18S RNA) gene fragments were used to analyse relationships within the Oulimnius tuberculatus species group. The results of molecular data analysis are compared with morphological characters, and the distributional patterns and taxonomic status of recognized taxa are addressed. Based on molecular data, Oulimnius perezi is re-validated as a distinct species, and the discovery of a possible new species from northwest Italy is reported. The possible origins and times of speciation within the species group are discussed.

A new species, Hedyselmis belatani sp. nov., is described from West Malaysia, based on morphological characters. The description includes detailed drawings of the most important structures. Four fragments of DNA, three mitochondrial (cox1, cob, rrnL) and one nuclear (SSU), were sequenced and compared with H. opis Hinton and other elmid species. The taxonomic position of H. belatani sp. nov., its distribution and the phylogeny of the genus are discussed.
