Two new species and genera of minute, coleopteriform psocopterans, family Sphaeropsocidae (Nanopsocetae), are described from fossils preserved in Cretaceous ambers: Sphaeropsocoides canadensis Grimaldi and Engel, n.gen., n.sp., from the Campanian of western Canada; and Sphaeropsocites lebanensis Grimaldi and Engel, n.gen., n.sp., from the Neocomian of Lebanon. These are the first described Mesozoic species of the family. Sphaeropsocus kuenowii Hagen in mid-Eocene Baltic amber is redescribed in detail. The 14 described Recent species of the family (in the genera Sphaeropsocopsis and Badonnelia) have natural distributions that are largely restricted to southern portions of the Southern Hemisphere, but Eocene and now Cretaceous fossils reveal a formerly global distribution of the family. Hypothesized relationships of the five genera indicate basal positions of the fossil genera, and probably an entirely Tertiary age of the Recent genera Sphaeropsocopsis and Badonnelia, which would thus be too young for these two genera to have been affected by gondwanan drift.

All the known species of Saemundssonia from the Sterninae are discussed, and two new species are described. The species of previous authors described from more than one host, and therefore usually composite, are restricted to one type host and redescribed and figured.Neotypes have been erected for species of which the original type material is presumed to be lost and where material from the type host is available.

Polypax melasmothrixi, a new species of polyplacid sucking louse, is described from Melasmothrix naso, a small bodied shrew rat known only from upper montane rain forest in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. The male of Polypax wallacei is described from specimens collected from Bunomys chrysocomus trapped in lowland evergreen rainforest in Central Sulawesi. A further specimen of Polypax eropepli, a taxon known only from the type series, is documented from Eropeplus canus from tropical upper montane rain forest also in Central Sulawesi. Host and habitat associations for these three species of sucking lice are discussed. Polypax melasmothrixi and P. eropepli are both known only from montane habitats and both appear to be host specific (to M. naso and E. canus, respectively). Contrastingly, P. wallacei parasitises two species of Bunomys in lowland forests and is know from North and Central Sulawesi.

Hoplopleura traubi, a new species of hoplopleurid sucking louse collected from the murine rodent, Maxomys wattsi, is described. The louse and its host are known only from montane forest on Gunung (Mount) Tambusisi (1\°38\&$\#$39;s, 121\°23\&$\#$39;E) in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. The morphology of H. traubi is compared to that of related species of Hoplopleura known from Sulawesi and Sundaland. The polyplacid sucking louse Polyplax reclinata is recorded for the first time from Sulawesi; specimens were recovered from a horse shrew, Suncus murinus. The anopluran fauna as currently known from native Sulawesian mammals is briefly analysed and compared with the known faunas of other parts of the Indo-Australian region.
