Published in print on December 20, 2019. Editors in charge: Martin Fikáček & Klaus-Dieter Klass. Abstract. The smallest beetles and the smallest non-parasitic insects belong to the staphylinoid family Ptiliidae. Their adult body length can be as small as 0.325 mm and is generally smaller than 1 mm. Here we address the phylogenetic relationships within the family using formal analyses of adult morphological characters and molecular data, and also a combination of both for the frst time. Strongly supported clades are Ptiliidae + Hydraenidae, Ptiliidae, Ptiliidae excl. Nossidium, Motschulskium and Sindosium, Nanosellini, and a clade comprising Acrotrichis, Smicrus, Nephanes and Baeocrara. A group comprising Actidium, Oligella and Micridium + Ptilium is also likely monophy- letic. -

In this study, carabid beetles were collected by light traps in Ahvaz vicinity, Khuzestan province, south-west Iran during 2013. Totally, 21 species belonging to 17 genera of Carabidae were collected from which 9 species were new for Khuzestan province. The species Lebia (Lebia) syriaca PIC, 1901 is also recorded for the first time from Iran. Moreover, additions to the recent checklist of Iranian Carabidae (AZADBAKHSH & NOZARI 2015) are recorded and discussed. K e y w o r d s : fauna, new record, Carabidae, Iran. Introduction The Carabidae or ground beetles are a large cosmopolitan family of the Coleoptera, with an estimated number of 40,000 species world-wide (ARNDT et al. 2005; LUFF 2007). They are distributed over broad geographic ranges and in all major terrestrial habitats (LÖVEI & SUNDERLAND 1996). -

The extensive material of Carabidae collected during expeditions to the Socotra Archipelago between 1999 and 2010 was studied. A total of 50 carabid species-group taxa were recognised, of which 42 were identifi ed at species level, while eight morpho-species remain unnamed. Four species appear to be endemic to the island; 30 species are recorded here for Socotra for the fi rst time. The majority of the Carabidae fauna of Socotra consists of species occurring in Africa and on the Arabian Peninsula. One species is cosmopolitan. Key words. Coleoptera, Carabidae, new records, Yemen, Socotra Introduction Socotra is the collective name for a small archipelago off the coast of Yemen, consisting of the islands of Socotra, Abd el Kuri, Samha and Darsa (the so-called Brothers) and the rocks Jazirat, Sabuniya and Ka’l Fir’awn, together sitting on the Socotra Platform that is a part of the Somali Block. This Somali Block was probably a part of the Afro-Arabian con- tinent during the Paleogene. -

This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Today, the importance of restoring natural forest disturbance regimes and habitat structures for biodiversity is widely recognized. We evaluated the immediate effects of two restoration methods on wood-inhabiting (saproxylic) beetles in boreal forest voluntary set-asides. We used a before-after control-impact experimental set-up in 15 set- asides; each assigned to one of three treatments: (1) restoration burning, (2) gap cutting and (3) no-treatment reference stands. -
