During the Royal Geographical Society\’s Mulu expedition (1977-78) a number of caves in the Batu Niah and Gunung Mulu National Parks (Sarawak, Borneo) were surveyed. In two caves, Mr. Philip Chapman discovered blind, stygobiont amphipod crustaceans, which proved to be an undescribed species of the subgenus Medigidiella Stock, 1981 of the genus Bogidiella Hertzog, 1933, described below as В. (M.) sarawacensis n. sp.\ This is the first Bogidiellid that becomes known from the East Indian archipelago. The subgenus Medigidiella to which it belongs, is predominantly distributed around the Mediterranean basin, with one species (В. (M.) arganoi Ruffo \& Vigna, 1973) in Mexico. The discovery of a new species in hypogean waters of Borneo supports my opinion (Stock, 1978, 1981) that certain members of the Bogidiellidae are very old inhabitants of inland waters, having reached a world-wide distribution before the break-up of Pangaea.

Bogidiella neotropica was described by Ruffo in 1952 after a single specimen of unknown sex, from Amazonia (Brazil). Both sexes have been found recently in the Guarico district, Venezuela. From the absence of secondary sexual differences in the male appendages it is clear that the species belongs to the subgenus Bogidiella s. str. The Venezuelan specimens are redescribed and illustrated.

Two new amphipod species of the family Bogidiellidae were found in the hyporheal of two small rivers on Corsica. Both new species, Bogidiella (Bogidiella) cyrnensis n. sp. and B. paolii n. sp. (provisionally placed in the subgenus Medigidiella, but a definitive classification will have to wait till males are found), encountered at altitudes of 135 m and 750 m, respectively, show more affinities with certain freshwater species of Sardinia than with marine species of the Mediterranean.
