Podalonia affinis is confirmed as extant on the Sefton Coast; it is definitely present at Ainsdale NNR and is possibly present at Freshfield Dune Heath. Stelis ornatula, Mimesa bruxellensis and Bombus humilis are not confirmed as currently present at the sites surveyed for this report. A total of 141 records were made (see attached data list) of 48 aculeate species. The majority of samples were of aculeate wasps (Sphecidae, Crabronidae and Pompilidae). 4 INTRODUCTION PRIMARY SPECIES (Status) Stelis ornatula There are 9 records of this species for VC59 between 1975 and 2000. All the records are from the Sefton Coast. The host of this parasitic species is Hoplitis claviventris which is also recorded predominantly from the coast (in VC59). All records are from Ainsdale National Nature Reserve (NNR) and Formby (Formby Point and Ravenmeols Dunes). Podalonia affinis There are 15 VC59 records for this species which includes both older, unconfirmed records and more recent confirmed records based on specimens.

    BOUNDARY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND PROCEEDINGS at the 2018 REVIEW OF PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES IN ENGLAND HELD AT THE COTTON EXCHANGE BUILDING, OLD HALL STREET, LIVERPOOL, L3 9JR ON FRIDAY 21 OCTOBER 2016 DAY TWO Before: Mr Neil Ward, The Lead Assistant Commissioner ______________________________ Transcribed from audio by W B Gurney & Sons LLP 83 Victoria Street, London, SW1H 0HW Telephone Number: 0203 585 4721/22 ______________________________ At 9.00 am: THE LEAD ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for joining us today. My name is Neil Ward. I am the Lead Assistant Commissioner appointed by the Boundary Commission to conduct two things: To conduct the hearings across the whole of the North West into their Initial Proposals for the revised parliamentary boundaries for the North West region and, along with two fellow assistant Commissioners, Nicholas Elliott and Graeme Clarke, to take on board all the representations that are either made in the hearings or in written representations and to consider, in the light of them, whether we think it is appropriate to recommend changes, revised proposals to the Boundary Commission on their Initial Proposals. I should say that I am, in a sense, essentially independent of the Boundary Commission. Although I am appointed by them, I had no hand in the drafting of the proposals and I received them the same time as everyone else and I am, in a sense, an honest broker in this process, considering whether or not changes ought to be made. This is the second day of the Liverpool hearing. Just a couple of words on process.

    QUARTERLY NEWSLETTER Newsletter No. 155 Autumn 2016 Chorley and District Natural History Society is a Registered Charity: Registration Number 513466 THE NOTIFICATION OF THE WEST PENNINE MOORS AS A SITE OF SPECIAL SCIENTIFIC INTEREST (SSSI) It has been a notable summer on the West Pennine Moors (WPM) with a host of locally scarce, or previously unrecorded upland specialities reported. Botanically, the consolidation or spread of existing restricted populations of Moonwort, Great Sundew, Royal Fern, Round-leaved Sundew and Bell Heather were noted whilst in many areas, vast carpets of Cranberry fruited in abundance. Highlights were the locating of new colonies of Marsh Andromeda, Cowberry and Labrador Tea, whilst pride of place went to the discovery of Many- stalked Spike-rush, a native perennial new to the WPM. Great Sundew, Belmont Moor 30 th August 1 Bilberry Bumblebee, Belmont 23 rd June Moving away from vascular plants, a population of the upland specialist Bilberry Bumblebee was confirmed at Belmont and whilst Adder numbers in the east of the WPM were down, a male seen in the west by a competent observer in August, confirmed the continuing presence of a relict population there.

Or by post to 22 Beaumont Place, Lancaster LA1 2EY. Phone 01524 69248. Please note that for records to be included in the annual report, the deadline is the end of February. Late records will still be used for the database, but once the report is written, I’m not going to update or rewrite on the basis of late records. The report is also going to have to be written earlier in the year, in February, as I’m full on with work in March/April and I just can’t do it! Greater Manchester These records should only go to Peter Hardy, 28 Hyde Grove, Sale, M33 7TE, email [email protected] - not to Laura Sivell. Some people have been sending their records to both, leading to a fair amount of wasted time in sorting out the duplicate records.
