BOGUSCH, P. LISKA, J. LUKAS & A. DUDICH Abstract: This study summarizes all localities of the invasive mud dauber wasp Sceliphron curvatum (SMITH 1870) in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. First records of this species for Slovakia are presented. This sphecid wasp settled Europe in 1979 and has been spreading in all directions since that time. Presently, it is known from 12 European countries. The occurrence of this species in Slovakia and in the Czech Republic was for the first time confirmed in Devin (1997) and in Praha (2001), respectively. Recently, altogether 25 localities are known, 12 of which in the Czech Republic and 13 in Slovakia. The localities are situated in 8 squares in both countries. The biology of this species is also discussed and our results generally agree with the published data originating in other countries, e.g. India. Key words: Sceliphron curvatum, Bohemia, Moravia, Slovakia, distribution, biology Introduction Sphecid wasps of the genus Sceliphron KLUG 1801 are widely distributed in all regions of the world. -

Box 98615-538, I.R. Iran. 2 Division of Invertebrate Zoology, American Museum of Natural History, Central Park West at 79th Street, New York, NY 10024, USA. ABSTRACT. 231 species of the family Vespidae (Hymenoptera, Vespoidea) of Iran, in 55 genera belonging to 4 subfamilies Eumeninae (45 genera, 184 species), Masarinae (5 genera, 24 species), Polistinae (2 genera, 17 species) and Vespinae (3 genera, 6 species) are listed. An overall assessment of the distribution pattern of the vespid species in Iran indicates a complex fauna of different biogeographic regions. 111 species are found in both Eastern and Western Palaearctic regions, while 67 species were found only in the Eastern Palaearctic region. Few species (14 species – 6.1%) of various genera are known as elements of central and western Asian area and their area of distribution is not known in Europe (West Palaearctic) and in the Far East. The species that were found both in the Oriental and Afrotropical Regions comprises 11.7 and 15.6% the Iranian vespid fauna, respectively. Many species (48, 20.8%) are exclusively recorded from Iran and as yet there is no record of Received: these species from other countries. The highest percentage of the vespid 01 January, 2020 species are recorded from Sistan-o Baluchestan (42 species, 18.2%), Alborz (42 Accepted: species, 18.2%), Fars (39 species, 16.9%) and Tehran provinces (38 Species 17 January, 2020 16.5%), representing the fauna of the Southeastern, North- and South Central Published: of the country. -

The Velvet Ants (Hymenoptera, Mutillidae) of Central Europe
Linzer biol. Beitr. 37/2 1505-1543 16.12.2005 The velvet ants (Hymenoptera, Mutillidae) of Central Europe A.S. LELEJ & Ch. SCHMID-EGGER A b s t r a c t : The species of Mutillidae from Central Europe are keyed, briefly diagnosed, their distribution and host relationships summarized. New synonymy is proposed: Ronisia brutia (PETAGNA 1787) = Mutilla crimeae STRAND 1917, syn.n.; Smicromyrme triangularis (RADOSZKOWSKI 1865) = S. pouzdranensis HOFFER 1936, syn.n. The key in German language is given also. 34 species in 15 genera are treated. K e y w o r d s : Hymenoptera, Mutillidae, key, Central Europe. Introduction The species of Mutillidae in Central Europe are poorly known, compared with the re- maining Aculeate groups as Apidae, Sphecidae, Crabronidae, Pompilidae or others. Until now, there is no complete key or monograph for the species of Central Europe. The basic work with keys for most European species is still the fauna of Italy by INVREA (1964), but obsolete in taxonomy and nomenclature. Lelej (1985) published a key to the former USSR species of Mutillidae in Russian language, comprising most species of Central Europe. PETERSEN (1988) revised the type species of FABRICIUS, and SUÁREZ (1988) revised the Myrmosinae of Spain and added keys for the species of the Western Pa- laearctic region. The German species were keyed by OEHLKE (1974) and the species of Smicromyrme and Physetopoda of Germany revised and keyed by SCHMID-EGGER & PETERSEN (1993). The Mutillidae of former Czechoslovakia were studied by HOFFER (1938) and keyed by BOUČEK & ŠNOFLÁK (1957). An important step to stability in no- menclature and taxonomy was done by the catalogue of the Palaearctic region by LELEJ (2002) with keys to all Mutillidae genera. -
Contribución Al Conocimiento De La Familia Chrysididae De La Provincia De Palencia (Hym
Eos, t. 65 (2), págs. 31-50 (1989) Contribución al conocimiento de la familia Chrysididae de la provincia de Palencia (Hym. Chrysididae) POR E. MINGO, S. F. GAYUBO y A. RUEDA Resumen En el presente trabajo se lleva a cabo el estudio faunístico de la familia Chrysididae de la provincia de Palencia. El material colectado ha permitido identificar un total de 55 especies y subespecies, pertenecientes a 8 géneros, todas ellas citadas por primera vez para dicha provincia. Se adjuntan un ma- pa de localidades con altitudes y coordenadas UTM y tres tablas en las que se expresa la relación entre las especies de crisídidos, vegetación y tipos de terreno. Palabras clave: Hymenoptera, Chrysididae, faunística, Palencia, España. Summary In the present paper a faunistic study of the family Chrysididae from Palencia province is carried out. As result 55 species and subspecies belon- ging to 8 genera are quoted and all of them are recorded for the first time for this province. A map with localities and UTM coordinates of these localities are given, also, three tables in which the relations between species of chrysidids, plants and kind of soils are shown. Key words: Hymenoptera, Chrysididae, faunistic, Palencia, Spain. Siguiendo el criterio de prospectar el solar ibérico utilizando las demar- caciones que nos proporcionan los límites provinciales, abordamos en el pre- sente artículo el estudio de los crisídidos de Palencia. Su interés desde un punto de vista faunístico radica, fundamentalmente, en que la zona explorada no había sido previamente sometida a ningún tipo de estudio crisididológico, por lo que la totalidad de las especies citadas son nuevas para la provincia palentina. -

INTRODUCTION The New Valley governorate is the largest governorate in Egypt, covering an area of 458,000 square kilometers (about one-fifth of the total surface area of Egypt). It extends in the north as far as Marsa Matrouh, in the south as far as Sudan and in the west as far as Libya. In the east, it is coterminous with the governorates of Assiut, Qena, and Aswan. The New Valley has a desert climate that is hot and dry and was one of the most important agricultural areas of Ancient Egypt (Janick, 2002). The hymenopterous fauna of this important region was not perfectly studied and very little is known about the abundance and diversity of these insects in this area.
