On the basis of specimens from New Guinea and New Britain, the genus Dynamenais Kirkaldy (Pyrrhocoridae) is re-defined, four species and one subspecies are described in the new subgenus Syncrotus (Syncrotellus) (Pyrrhocoridae), and two species are described for the new genus Goilalaka (Pentatomidae). S. (S.) similis sp.n. was recorded from cacao, and S. (S.) madanganus sp.n. and G. rubroruga sp.n. from Solanum spp.
