ARTHROPODA Subphylum Hexapoda Protura, Springtails, Diplura, and Insects
NINE Phylum ARTHROPODA SUBPHYLUM HEXAPODA Protura, springtails, Diplura, and insects ROD P. MACFARLANE, PETER A. MADDISON, IAN G. ANDREW, JOCELYN A. BERRY, PETER M. JOHNS, ROBERT J. B.

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000). -

Uawa/ Tolaga Bay Bioblitz
UAWA / TOLAGA BAY BIOBLITZ 2015 SUMMARY THE BIOBLITZ “Nau mai Haere mai, E piki ki runga o Titirangi, ki taku taumata kōrero e tu mai rā. Ka titiro whakararo ki te ngutu awa o Uawanui-a-Ruamatua, Te ara tipuna, te ūkaipō o te ao tipua –te oranga o Rangi te oranga o Nuku. E ko Te Aitanga-a-Hauiti nui tonu tēnei e mihi nei, e tangi atu nei’.” On 12-13 February 2015, scientists from the Allan Wilson Centre along with DOC, Gisborne District Council, enthusiastic community members, and most importantly the Tolaga Bay Area School undertook a bioblitz at Uawa Tolaga Bay. Over 6 main sites, and an additional 3 areas, scientists and students undertook field trips to identify and record species of plants and animals. Scientists and students also worked at the “Basecamp” in the school hall to identify species and learn from specialists. The focus of this bioblitz was on quick visits to a range of sites and a strong component of involving school students in science, rather than an intensive and complete species inventory. The bioblitz was part of the Uawanui Project – a long term project to enhance the health of the whole Uawa River Catchment environment and people. It provides a benchmark of the range of species present and some of the opportunities available to the Uawanui Project to enhance important biodiversity. It also supports the Tolaga Bay Area School, Te Aitanga a Hauiti and the Uawa Tolaga Bay Community in their understanding of the key biological values and science of their place. -

An Intensely Bright Red Nymph of the Katydid: Caedicia Simplex (Walker, F., 1869) Tettigoniidae: Phaneropterinae
The Weta 40: 27-28 (2010) 27 An intensely bright red nymph of the Katydid: Caedicia simplex (Walker, F., 1869) Tettigoniidae: Phaneropterinae Gorton, D. and Willis, S. 169 Standen St., Karori, Wellington. 2Beach Road, Te Horo. A uniformly, intense, bright, magenta red nymph of the Kat ydid , Caedicia simplex (Walker, F., 1869), has appeared in the garden of Sara Willis daily since 7th June2010, and has been observed daily by her fro m then unt il 8 September 2010. The nymph first appeared on flowering wall flowers (Cheiranthus sp.) where it was Figure 1: Caedicia simplex nymph of the bright red morph in a Te Horo garden; a, b: diapausing nymph, 10 mm long (photographed on 11. 8. 2010); c, d, e: active nymph, not long after moulting photographed, and was photographed again on a rosebush on 11 August 2010, when it was coloured a uniform intense red, even on the pleurae and venter, and was 10 mm lo ng (Fig.1:a,b). The colour is similar in both sets of 28 Diana Gorton and Sarah Willis photographs. Throughout June and July it was very sluggish, appearing to be in semi- hibernat ion or incomplete diapause, and only moved if she prodded it. During inclement weather, it sheltered under a leaf, but it came out into sunlight in fine weather. After August 23rd, it became much more active and moved its antennae about. Its intense red coloration had remained constant until 28th August, when, following a moult, the venter became pale pink and the head from apex to labrum had lengthened. -

Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery, GPO Box 1164, Hobart, Tasmania 7001, Australia (MLB*, SG, MFS, CB, LC, KB, KM, GK). *Author for correspondence. Email: [email protected] A flora and fauna survey was conducted at the east coast Tasmanian property Wind Song in 2017 as part of the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery’s ongoing research, collection-building and nature-discovery program. The survey recorded 885 taxa, primarily from the targeted groups of vascular plants, bryophytes, lichens, butterflies, moths, beetles, snails and slugs. Several of the taxa recorded, chiefly lichens and invertebrates, are new to science or new records for Tasmania. The survey provides a benchmark for further work and serves as an indicator of the biodiversity of a former farming property on Tasmania’s east coast. Key Words: species discovery, biodiversity, Tasmania, lichens, multidisciplinary survey. -
