MUSEUM OF SOUTHWESTERN BIOLOGY ACADEMIC YEAR 2012-2013 ANNUAL REPORT JOSEPH A. COOK, DIRECTOR The Museum of Southwestern Biology (MSB) continues to be a vital contributor to educational initiatives at UNM. Numerous undergraduate projects, graduate theses & dissertations (42 graduate students, 9 completed in this period), or projects in Biology, Anthropology, Art, and elsewhere use MSB specimens as a basis for their studies. Many undergraduate students associated with MSB (76 in this period) continue on to graduate programs, professional schools or obtain jobs in conservation and management agencies in state, federal, or private sector positions. Each division immerses students in natural history, systematics, molecular biology, morphology, species identification, museum specimen preparation and curation, field studies, and web-based informatics. MSB continues to lead in training under-represented students or international students, especially those from Latin America. Indeed, MSB has been the locus of large student-training efforts for many years and sponsors two museum- centered programs (funded by the National Science Foundation) that focus on student success: Undergraduate Opportunities (UnO- $1,010,000) and Aim-up! ($495,000).

    Patterns of Animal Dispersal, Vicariance and Diversification in the Holarctic

Four major areas, each corresponding to a historically persistent landmass, were used in the analyses: eastern Nearctic (EN), western Nearctic (WN), eastern Palaeoarctic (EP) and western Palaeoarctic (WP). Parsimony-based tree fitting showed that there is no significantly supported general area cladogram for the dataset. Yet, distributions are strongly phylogenetically conserved, as revealed by dispersal- vicariance analysis (DIVA). DIVA-based permutation tests were used to pinpoint phylogenetically determined biogeographic patterns. Consistent with expectations, continental dispersals (WP-EP and WN-EN) are sig- nificantly more common than palaeocontinental dispersals (WN-EP and EN-WP), which in turn are more common than disjunct dispersals (EN-EP and WN-WP). There is significant dispersal asymmetry both within the Nearctic (WN+EN more common than EN+WN) and the Palaeoarctic (EP+WP more common than WP-tEP). Cross- Beringian faunal connections have traditionally been emphasized but are not more important than cross-Atlantic connections in our data set.

GATES CLARKE SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 273 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiotogy Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world cf science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

    Rapid and Accurate Taxonomic Classification of Insect (Class Insecta

    Molecular Ecology Resources (2014) doi: 10.1111/1755-0998.12240 Rapid and accurate taxonomic classification of insect (class Insecta) cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) DNA barcode sequences using a na€ıve Bayesian classifier TERESITA M.

Some of the most commonly used metagenomic classification methods do not provide a measure of confidence for the taxonomic assignments they provide. The aim of this study was to use a na€ıve Bayesian classifier (Wang et al. Applied and Envi- ronmental Microbiology, 2007; 73: 5261) to automate taxonomic assignments for large batches of insect COI sequences such as data obtained from high-throughput environmental sequencing. This method provides rank-flexible taxo- nomic assignments with an associated bootstrap support value, and it is faster than the BLAST-based methods com- monly used in environmental sequence surveys. We have developed and rigorously tested the performance of three different training sets using leave-one-out cross-validation, two field data sets, and targeted testing of Lepidoptera, Diptera and Mantodea sequences obtained from the Barcode of Life Data system.

  • Evolution and Classification of Bibionidae (Diptera: Bibionomorpha)

    Evolution and Classification of Bibionidae (Diptera: Bibionomorpha)

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Scott J. Fitzgerald for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Entomology presented on 3 June, 2004. Title: Evolution and Classification of Bibionidae (Diptera: Bibionomorpha). Abstract approved: Signature redacted forprivacy. p 1ff Darlene D. Judd The family Bibionidae has a worldwide distribution and includes approximately 700 species in eight extant genera. Recent studies have not produced compelling evidence supporting Bibionidae as a monophyletic group or identified the sister group to bibionids. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the classification and evolution of the family Bibionidae in a cladistic framework. The study has four primary objectives: 1) test the monophyly of the family; 2) determine the sister group of Bibionidae; 3) examine generic and subfamilial relationships within the family; and 4) provide a taxonomic revision of the extant and fossil genera of Bibionidae. Cladistic methodology was employed and 212 morphological characters were developed from all life stages (adult, pupa, larva, and egg). Characters were coded as binary or multistate and considered equally weighted and unordered. A heuristic search with a multiple random taxon addition sequence was used and Bremer support values are provided to show relative branch support. A strict consensus of 43 equal-length trees of 1,106 steps indicates that the family Bibionidae is monophyletic and is sister group to Pachyneuridae. All bibionid genera are supported as monophyletic except for Bibio and Bibiodes (monophyly of the latter genus was not examined because only one exemplar was included). Results indicate that the subfamilies Hesperininae and Bibioninae are monophyletic and Pleciinae is paraphyletic.

Pachyneura fasciata Zetterstedt, 1838 (Diptera, Pachyneuridae) DNA barcoded from the northernmost forests of the world. Norwegian Journal of Entomology 66, 77–80. New records of Pachyneura fasciata Zetterstedt, 1838 are presented from Harrelv Nature Reserve at Varanger Peninsula, Norway, where a lush riverine ravine dominated by grey alder (Alnus incana) forms one of the worlds´ northernmost patches of forests. This expands the known distribution of Pachyneura fasciata far north of the Taiga belt with continuous natural spruce forest, previously assumed to demark its northern distribution limit in Fennoscandia. Fresh specimens were successfully DNA barcoded and compared with a few other records of the species available on The Barcode of Life Data System (BOLD), including a record from Primorskiy Krai in far east Russia, which is genetically separated from the European population by a distance of 2.09%.
