We describe here a new species in the genus Disersus Sharp, 1882 from the Otongachi Reserve in Ecuador. Disersus otongachi sp.nov. is externally similar to other representatives of the genus, however, this species can be clearly distinguished for significantly longer antennae and the unique shape of the male genitalia.

A new minute riffle beetle genus Ictelmis gen. nov. and the type species Ictelmis martae sp. nov. are described from Ecuador. The description is supported by characteristic morphological features and DNA barcoding data, drawings and habitus photographs are provided. Based on molecular data and morphology it is suggested that Ictelmis is closely related with Onychelmis Hinton, and Notelmis Hinton.

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.

Four species have been recognized in the genus Jolyelmis Spangler \& Faitoute; all collected at isolated table mountains, mostly in cool stenothermal hypocrenal streams. The known distribution of the genus is confined to Venezuela, and each species is here reported as endemic for the respective table mountain where it has been found. Samples from Chur\í-tepui and Mount Roraima in south-eastern Venezuela contained numerous adults and larvae of Elmidae among which is a new species, Jolyelmis spangleri, which is here described. The new species is illustrated and keyed with all other Jolyelmis, and new distributional data for J. reitmaieri\ {\v C}iampor, Jr. \& Kodada are included. Molecular analysis of partial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (cox1) confirmed conspecific life stages for two species: J. spangleri and J. reitmaieri. The larva of each species is described and illustrated, and the generic diagnosis for Jolyelmis larvae is provided. Among the known larvae of South American Elmidae, larvae of the genus Xenelmis Hinton appear to be the most similar. Morphological similarities are discussed. Habitats of adults and larvae are briefly described and illustrated by photographs.

We provide a review of species of the genus Dryopomorphus Hinton, 1936 occurring in Malaysia. Three known species: D. bishopi Hinton, 1971; D. satoi Spangler, 1985 and D. hendrichi\ {\v C}iampor Jr \& Kodada, 2006 are diagnosed and five new species from the Malay Peninsula and Borneo are described here: D. grandis, D. jaechi, D. memei, D. pekariki and D. sarawacensis.

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.

The monotypic genus Phanoceroides was initially classified within the subfamily Elminae, based solely on the distribution and type of pubescence on the body surface. Although a close relationship with Larainae was suggested (Hinton 1939, Maier 2013), its taxonomic position and phylogeny remained unresolved. Based on newly collected material, we describe here P. fernandesi sp. n. and document morphological characters and differences of adults and larvae of P. aquaticus Hinton, 1939 and P. fernandesi sp. n. To clarify the taxonomic position of Phanoceroides within Elmidae, we used molecular data (cox1 and mtDNA). The results support position of the genus within the subfamily Larainae with Hypsilara Maier \& Spangler, 2011 as a close relative.
