  • The Predatory Behaviour of Monopelopia Tenuicalcar (Kieffer, 1918) Larvae in a Laboratory Experiment

The predatory behaviour of Monopelopia tenuicalcar (Kieffer, 1918) larvae in a laboratory experiment Vít SYROVÁTKA* Department of Botany and Zoology, Faculty of Science, Masaryk University, Kotlářská 2, 611 37 Brno, Czech Republic *Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT Larvae of the subfamily Tanypodinae are in general regarded as predators. Actual predation has been observed directly in only a few Tanypodinae species, but their behaviour and mouthpart morphology suggest that all Tanypodinae ingest food in the same way and thus are all predators. This view is reflected in most autecological databases. There remains uncertainty for some species, most notably for Monopelopia tenuicalcar (Kieffer, 1918). The uncertainty stems from the lack of direct observations, while gut content analysis points to non-animal food sources. A laboratory experiment was carried out in which larvae of Corynoneura sp. were offered to M. tenuicalcar in a set of Petri dishes. All predator and prey larvae were collected from the same locality, where they were the most abundant members of early spring littoral community. M. tenuicalcar showed clear predatory behaviour. In most cases (84 out of 86) the predator larva pierced the larva of Corynoneura and sucked its inner bodyonly content instead of engulfing it. Only in two cases did the predator engulf the whole victim. In all cases the seizing and processing of the prey was the same, with the ingestion of the food carried out by strong sucking.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left handcorner of a large sheetand to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • (Insecta: Diptera) in Lowland Running Waters of North-East Germany (Brandenburg) Based on 10- Year EU-Water Framework Directive Monitoring Programme
    37 Lauterbornia 77: 37-62, D-86424 Dinkelscherben, 2014-07-07 Faunistic overview of Chironomidae (Insecta: Diptera) in lowland running waters of north-east Germany (Brandenburg) based on 10- year EU-Water Framework Directive monitoring programme Claus Orendt, Xavier-François Garcia, Berthold F. Janecek, Susanne Michiels, Claus-Joachim Otto and Reinhard Müller With 8 figures and 5 tables Keywords : Chironomidae, Diptera, Insecta, Brandenburg, Germany, Central European Lowlands, running water, check list, faunistics, larva, pupa, pupal exuviae, imago Schlagwörter : Chironomidae, Diptera, Insecta, Brandenburg, Deutschland, Zentrales Flachland, Fließgewässer, Checkliste, Faunistik, Larve, Puppe, Imago The results of a 10-year monitoring programme are used to provide a list of the Chironomidae taxa of running waters in Brandenburg, north-east Germany, Central European Lowlands ecoregion. The 573 taxa recorded, represent 58 % of the Chironomidae in the "Taxa list of the freshwater organisms of Germany". The 408 re- cords with a valid species status include 56 % of the species, and the 121 genera include 73 % of the genera of the German Chironomidae fauna. The records are based on collections of all developmental stages and were de- rived from about 2350 samples taken during a 10-year monitoring programme up to 2013. The study shows how monitoring programmes with a clear strategy and proper data storage and management can make a sub- stantial contribution to knowledge of the fauna of an ecoregion and provide a solid database for ecological ana- lyses. Further data evaluation indicated an affinity of certain taxa to a particular water type, but further in- depth analysis is required. 1 Introduction Until the end of the last century understanding about the distribution of Chironomidae in the northern lowlands of Germany was limited, because they were seldom included in waterbody studies.

  • An Updated List of Chironomid Species from Italy with Biogeographic Considerations (Diptera, Chironomidae)

SUMMARY In a first list of chironomid species from Italy from 1988, 359 species were recognized. The subfamilies represented were Tanypodinae, Diamesinae, Prodiamesinae, Orthocladiinae and Chironominae. Most of the species were cited as widely distributed in the Palearctic region with few Mediterranean (6), Afrotropical (19) or Panpaleotropical (3) species. The list also included five species previously considered Nearctic. An updated list was thereafter prepared and the number of species raised to 391. Species new to science were added in the following years further raising the number of known species. The list of species known to occur in Italy is now updated to 580, and supported by voucher specimens. Most species have a Palearctic distribution, but many species are distributed in other biogeographical regions; 366 species are in common with the East Palaearctic region, 281 with the Near East, 248 with North Africa, 213 with the Nearctic, 104 with the Oriental, 23 species with the Neotropical, 23 with the Afrotropical, 16 with the Australian region, and 46 species at present are known to occur only in Italy.

  • Ohio EPA Supplemental Keys to the Larval Chironomidae (Diptera) of Ohio and Ohio Chironomidae Checklist
    Ohio EPA Supplemental Keys to the Larval Chironomidae (Diptera) of Ohio and Ohio Chironomidae Checklist June 2007 Michael J. Bolton Ohio Environmental Protection Agency 4675 Homer Ohio Lane Groveport, Ohio 43235 E-mail: [email protected] Ohio EPA Chironomid Larval Keys for Ohio June 2007 Introduction The following keys were developed to supplement existing keys as an aid in the identification of Chironomidae larvae collected in Ohio. They were designed to incorporate most of the taxa known from the temperate eastern North America. The bulk of the characters used in these keys were taken from existing keys. There is, however, many gaps in our understanding of the chironomid fauna. For that reason every attempt was made to positively identify larvae by associating them with their pupal and adult male stages. Therefore, some of the information presented in this guide is not available in other keys. These keys should be used in conjunction with existing keys. The standard generic level key that everyone identifying chironomid larvae should have is “Chironomidae of the Holarctic Region. Keys and Diagnoses. Part 1 - Larvae” edited by Wiederholm (1983). In addition to keys, this work contains extremely useful diagnoses and illustrations for every genus known from the covered area at the time. Another essential publication is “Identification Manual for the Larval Chironomidae (Diptera) of North and South Carolina” by Epler (2001). This very useful manual identifies larvae to species when possible and is extensively illustrated. However, it was designed to cover the Southeastern United States. At least two genera (Doncricotopus and Synendotendipes) found in Ohio were not included.
