Abstract(cid:1) Newreplacementnamesfor the preoccupied mite genera Absentia Huang, 2001and Venilia Kuznetsov, 1979are
proposed(Huangiella nom. nov. and Kuznetsovia nom. nov., respectively.). Fourteen further newreplacement namesare
proposedfor additional preoccupied generic names in the Arthropoda. These names are: Vailimia nom. nov., Millidgella
nom. nov., and Nolavia nom. nov. in Araneae, Vadumasonium nom. nov. in Hymenoptera, Gridellia nom. nov.,
Vanstaronia nom. nov. andVeraniella nom. nov. in Coleoptera, Poletaevega nom. nov. in Trilobita, Vandelia nom. nov.
inIsopoda, Gandoa nom. nov. andVanuachela nom. nov. in Decapoda, and Crasquinia nom. nov., Oertlia nom. nov.,
and Soleaua nom. nov. in Ostracoda. Additionally, one new annelid replacement name, Omodeodrilus nom. nov., is
proposed.
