东南亚龙脑香树的传播前种子捕食对于再生越来越重要。纳米甲虫的一个新属，Damnux gen。 11月，描述了其中所有已知的幼虫宿主都是龙脑香科的种子。大多数物种以多种宿主为食，并且一些宿主会受到不止一种 Damnux 物种的同域攻击。 Damnux 的模式种是 Nanophyes dipterocarpi Marshall,comb。十一月来自Meregallia，以及其他八个新物种被描述为新物种：D. Borneensis sp。十一月，D. confusa sp。十一月，D. conviva sp。十一月，D. grandis sp。十一月，D. seminivorax sp。十一月，D. tenebriosa sp。十一月，D.tindaleorum sp。十一月和 D. wagneri sp。十一月对Meregallia属进行了审查和重新描述，模式种确定为M. ligata Hustache。三个新物种，M.苏拉威西亚nov., M. sulawesiensis M. sulawesiensis sp.十一月和 M. aratra sp。十一月，进行了描述。 V. Zherikhin 博士指定了 Meregallia ligata (Hustache) 的选型。
Pre-dispersal seed predation of dipterocarp trees in South-East Asia is of increasing importance to regeneration. A new genus of nanophyid beetles, Damnux gen. nov., is described, of which all known larval hosts are seeds of Dipterocarpaceae. Most of the species feed on multiple hosts, and several hosts are attacked sympatrically by more than one Damnux species. The type species of Damnux is Nanophyes dipterocarpi Marshall, comb. nov. from Meregallia, and eight other species are described as new: D. borneensis sp. nov., D. confusa sp. nov., D. conviva sp. nov., D. grandis sp. nov., D. seminivorax sp. nov., D. tenebriosa sp. nov., D. tindaleorum sp. nov. and D. wagneri sp. nov. The genus Meregallia is reviewed and redescribed, and the type species fixed as M. ligata Hustache. Three new species,M. sulawesiensis sp. nov., M. sulawesiensis M. sulawesiensis sp. nov. and M. aratra sp. nov., are described. A lectotype is designated for Meregallia ligata (Hustache) by Dr V. Zherikhin.
