A total of three species are known to exist locally; Ameles spallanzania (Rossi, 1792), Mantis religiosa (Linnaeus, 1758) and Riv- etina baetica Rambur, 1839. The presence of Ameles decolor (Charpentier, 1825) cannot be confirmed by any recently collected mate- rial, but the species is not excluded from the Maltese entomofauna. Two doubtful records are also discussed. All species present in the archipelago are typically found in Southern Europe and the Mediterranean basin. Key words: mantids, Malta, Mediterranean.

Articulata 1-42 ARTICULATA 2011 26 (1): 1௅42 FAUNISTIK Mantodea from Turkey and Cyprus (Dictyoptera: Mantodea) 1 Reinhard Ehrmann Abstract The Mantodea from Turkey and Cyprus are listed with the genera and species alphabetically and amended with the most important synonyms. 263 publications with locality data: Anatolia, Asia Minor, Turkey, and Cyprus were inspected, evaluated and if applicable supplemented with comments (EHRMANN & SCHÜTTE 2005). The data for outdoor and laboratory observations are added to the biology of some species of the genus Eremiaphila and Rivetina. The order Mantodea is divided into 15 families, of which 5 families are found in Turkey and Cyprus (Amorphoscelidae, Eremiaphilidae, Tarachodidae, Mantidae, Empusidae; system by EHRMANN & ROY 2002: 374-378). Worldwide 452 genera and 2.450 species have been described, of which 13 genera and 23 species are known from Turkey and Cyprus: Ameles BURMEISTER, 1838 (3 species), Amor- phoscelis STÅL, 1871 (1 species), Armene STÅL, 1877 (1 species), Blepharopsis REHN, 1902 (1 species), Bolivaria STÅL, 1877 (1 species), Empusa ILLIGER, 1798 (4 species), Eremiaphila LEFÈBVRE, 1835 (2 species), Geomantis PANTEL, 1896 (1 species), Hierodula BURMEISTER, 1838 (1 species), Iris SAUSSURE, 1869 (2 species), Mantis LINNÉ, 1758 (1 species), Rivetina BERLAND & CHOPARD, 1922 (4 species) and Sphodromantis STÅL, 1871 (1 species). Uncertain for Turkey are: Empusa pennata (THUNBERG, 1815), Empusa uvarovi CHOPARD, 1921, Eremiaphila persica persica WERNER, 1905, Eremiaphila turcica WESTWOOD, 1889 and Rivetina baetica (RAMBUR, 1839).

Rodríguez-Flores & Mario García-París Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales, MNCN-CSIC, c/José Gutiérrez Abascal, 2, 28006, Madrid, Spain *Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The presence of a population of Rivetina baetica baetica, a typically littoral taxon endemic to the southernmost regions of Spain and Portugal, was studied for two consecutive reproductive periods in a continental steppe area of Central Spain. Reproduction was successful, representing a considerable range expansion from previ- ous records. Additionally, we revised the entomological collection of the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (MNCN, Madrid) and available bibliographic records. We recover the only record of R. baetica published from Portugal raising the number of known species in the current Portuguese checklist to 12. Our observations dem- onstrate that the species is able to survive low winter temperatures at La Mancha Plateau (Ciudad Real).

    Available online at www.scholarsresearchlibrary.com Scholars Research Library European Journal of Zoological Research, 2017, 5 (2): 25-33 (http://www.scholarsresearchlibrary.com) ISSN:2278-7356 Historical Review of Mantodea Occurrence in Egypt with Notes about Eremiaphila spp. in the Middle East and North Africa Rabia Enan, Sohair GadAllah, Mohamed Okely, Mohamed Nasser* Department of Entomology, Faculty of Science, Ain Shams University Abstract Mantis is charismatic predatory creatures of order Mantodea. They constituted small insects order with about 2500 species. They form one of the most diverse and unique predatory insects on variety of ecosystems and habitats through our planet. Through this work basic information about these insects on Egypt are provided including comprehensive literature survey and notes concerning most important species and specialists through history. Also, the records of occurrence and new species discovered from the Middle East and North Africa were given for genus Eremiaphila. Keywords: Ehrmann, Desert mantis, Nile, Egypt, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Iran INTRODUCTION Mantids inspired pharaohs since 3000 years ago and ancient records indicated that mantis formed a part of their culture [1]. Mantodea is a small insect order with approximately 2500 species which has been recorded worldwide [2,3]. Praying mantises are predatory insects distributed in tropical and subtropical habitats while few species are found on tempter and cold regions [4]. Several previous studies were discussed the mantis occurrence in Egypt with the last revision of the order was made by Mohammad et al. [5], where they recorded 60 species in 21 genera and 4 families with one new species Elaea solimani and one new record Eremiaphila gigas Beier, also Calidomantis ehrenbergi Werner considered as a new synonym of Sinaiella sabulosa Uvarov.

Field studies were conducted between 2004 and 2005. During this study, 34 species of Orthoptera (16 Tettigoniidae, 1 Oecanthidae, 2 Pamphagidae, 1 Tetrigidae, and 14 Acrididae) and 3 species of Mantodea were investigated. Isophya cania, Poecilimon luschani egrigozi, Anadolua schwarzi, Rhacocleis acutangula (Tettigoniidae), Paranocaracris rubripes burri (Pamphagidae), and one recently described species, Chorthippus (Glyptobothrus) kazdaghensis (Acrididae), are endemic taxa. Metrioptera (Broughtonia) arnoldi,, known from the Balkan fauna until now, is a new record for Turkish fauna. Th e calling songs of Metrioptera arnoldi, Rhacocleis acutangula, Anadolua schwarzi, Isophya cania, and Poecilimon luschani are described here for the fi rst time. Th e recordings of the some species are also given along with habitat observations and altitudinal distribution. From a zoogeographical perspective, Kazdağı holds both Balkan fauna elements as well as those typical of Mediterranean-Anatolian fauna.

In support of this, biodiversity of praying mantids undertaken to identify and evaluate the species richness and evenness was measured through Shannan Index and three Simpson’s Indexes. The mantids were collected from cultivated and non-cultivated fields and organize an inclusive and updated record of biodiversity of mantodea occurring in 13 districts of Punjab Province of Pakistan. Throughout survey 296 mantids were collected and arranged into 13 species. Pictures were captured by digital camera. *Corresponding Author: Khalid Hussain Dhiloo [email protected] 251 | Ursani et al.

  • The Biogeography of Iberian Orthopteroids'

    The biogeography of iberian orthopteroids' by S. K. GANGWERE and E. MORALES AGACINO The Iberian Peninsula is of interest to biogeographers, ecologists, and systematists because of its striking zonation, isolation, and strategic location between two continents, Europe and Africa. It is remarkably diverse in its biotic communities. Not surprisingly, its orthopterous fauna is rich, cornposed in reality of severa1 distinct subfaunae. The only pre- vious discussion of them was CAZURRO(1888), whicli pioneering effort is now antiquated. Our treatrnent oi the subject, below, will be given after comment on the Peninsula itself. The Iberian Peninsula is a shield-shaped Jand mass of approxiinately 650 by 600 miles in dirnension and 229,640 square miles in area (including certain nearby insular provinces). Though its basic plan was not really completed unti1 late Tertiary times, it was actually roughed out by the end of the Niocene; thus, the land is old if not ancient. It is today compri- sed of Spain (appr~ximatel~five sixths of the total land area), Portugal (about one sixth), and the minute territory of Gibraltar. It is bounded on three sides (or about seven eighths of its total boundary) by water and on the fourth by the towering Pyrenees Mountains that effectively seal it from the remainder of Europe to the north. To the south it comes within 14 miles of Africa at the Straits of Gibraltar and within 8 112 at the point between Tarifa and Cape Cires. The Iberian cozst t3nds to be rnountainous, dropping preripitously to the water's edge, but varies according to region.

    The Phylogenetic System of Mantodea (Insecta: Dictyoptera)

    The phylogenetic system of Mantodea (Insecta: Dictyoptera) Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultäten der Georg-August-Universität zu Göttingen vorgelegt von Frank Wieland aus Oldenburg Göttingen 2010 D7 Referent: Prof. Dr. R. Willmann Korreferent: PD Dr. T. Hörnschemeyer Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: “In order to arrive at a rational classification for Mantodea, it would be helpful, first, to take an inventory of various useful morphological characteristics and evaluate their relative importance and, then, to determine for each which is primitive (plesiomorph) and which is derived (apomorph) by calculating which changes (probably) arose only once and which could have arisen several times. It is also necessary to consider the fact that major variations do not necessarily mean a distant phylogenetic relationship and that striking resemblances do not necessarily translate into a close relationship.” Roger Roy, 1999 “Da es in dieser Gruppe äußerst schwierig ist, Primitives, Einfaches von Vereinfachtem zu unterscheiden, und da sicher eine Menge von Konvergenzen vorliegen, bedarf es noch weiterer sorgfältiger morphologischer Untersuchungen.” Anton Handlirsch, 1930a “[Morphology] is the most interesting department of natural history, and may be said to be its very soul.” Charles Darwin, 1859 Abstract The first reconstruction of mantodean phylogeny using a large morphological dataset of the entire group is presented. 152 morphological characters were encoded for 122 species of Mantodea, encompassing all 15 currently recognized families, 34 of 48 subfamilies (71 %) and 33 of 46 tribus (72 %). Structures from the entire exoskeleton were studied, including characters that have been stated to be convergent de- velopments before without data-based evidence. Fossils, behaviour and ontogenetic observations were used for the interpretation of structures and the discussion of evolutionary scenarios.
