INNS are increasingly abundant in Great Britain and in Europe generally and their impact is rising. Hence, INNS are the subject of considerable concern in Great Britain, prompting the development of a Non-Native Species Strategy and the formation of the GB Non-Native Species Programme Board and Secretariat.

ZooKeys 2: 221-238. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.2.14 Abstract Eighteen species of flat bark beetles are now known in Atlantic Canada, 10 in New Brunswick, 17 in Nova Scotia, four on Prince Edward Island, six on insular Newfoundland, and one in Labrador. Twenty-three new provincial records are reported and nine species, Uleiota debilis (LeConte), Uleiota dubius (Fabricius), Nausibius clavicornis (Kugelann), Ahasverus advena (Waltl), Cryptolestes pusillus (Schönherr), Cryptolestes turcicus (Grouvelle), Charaphloeus convexulus (LeConte), Chara- phloeus species nr. adustus, and Placonotus zimmermanni (LeConte) are newly recorded in the re- gion, one of which C. sp. nr. adustus, is newly recorded in Canada. Eight are cosmopolitan species introduced to the region and North America, nine are native Nearctic species, and one, Pediacus fuscus Erichson, is Holarctic. All the introduced species except for one Silvanus bidentatus (Fab- ricius), a saproxylic species are found on various stored products, whereas all the native species are saproxylic.

  • The Silvanidae of Israel (Coleoptera: Cucujoidea)
    ISRAEL JOURNAL OF ENTOMOLOGY, Vol. 44–45, pp. 75–98 (1 October 2015) The Silvanidae of Israel (Coleoptera: Cucujoidea) ARIEL -LEIB -LEONID FRIEDM A N The Steinhardt Museum of Natural History and Israel National Center for Biodiversity Studies, Depart ment of Zoology, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, 69978 Israel E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The Silvanidae is a family comprising mainly small, subcortical, saproxylic, beetles with the more or less dorsoventrally flattened body. It is a family of high economic importance, as some of the species are pests of stored goods; some of them are distributed throughout the world, mainly by human activities. Nine teen species of Silvanidae in ten genera are hereby recorded from Israel. Eleven of those are considered alien, of which four are established either in nature or indoor; eight species are either indigenous or have been introduced in the very remote past. Seven species, Psammoecus bipunctatus, P. triguttatus, Pa rasilvanus fairemairei, Silvanus castaneus, S. inarmatus, S. ?mediocris and Uleiota planatus, are recorded from Israel for the first time. Airaphilus syriacus was recorded only once in 1913; its status is doubtful. A. abeillei may occur in Israel, although no material is available. Twelve species are associated with stored products, although only three, Ahasverus advena, Oryzaephilus suri na- mensis and O. mercator, are of distinct economic importance; the rest are either rare or only occasionally intercepted on imported goods. An identification key for all genera and species is provided. KEYWORDS: Flat Bark Beetles, stored product pests, alien, invasive species, identification key. INTRODUCTION The family Silvanidae Kirby, 1837 is comparatively small, with almost 500 described species in 58 genera.

  • 2 Biology, Behavior, and Ecology of Stored Grain and Legume Insects
    2 Biology, Behavior, and Ecology of Stored Grain and Legume Insects Linda Mason Marissa McDonough Stored grains and legumes are subject to insect infes- compounded by the fact that in cold grain (typically tation and deterioration from molds and bacteria. In grain below 50 to 55⁰F), insects are not mobile and 1990, postharvest losses in the United States were are easier to miss in random sampling. estimated to be $500 million per year (Harein and Meronuck 1991). The United States estimates that A major concern with the presence of insects is in developed countries the average minimum overall potential to vector disease organisms. Many stored- losses from biological degradation is 10% (National grain insects possess hairs and indentations on their Research Council 1978), while in developing coun- exoskeletons that can act as mechanical vectors of tries that estimate may be up to 20%.

ZooKeys 179: 157–168. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.179.2600 Abstract One species of Silvanidae, Silvanus muticus Sharp, is newly recorded from New Brunswick, Canada and the Maritime provinces; Ahasverus longulus (Blatchley) is re-instated to the faunal list of the province, and we report the first recent provincial records of Dendrophagus cygnaei Mannerheim. Five species of Laemophloeidae (Charaphloeus convexulus (LeConte), Charaphloeus undescribed species (near adustus), Leptophloeus angustulus (LeConte), Placonotus zimmermanni (LeConte), and an undescribed Leptophloeus species) are added to the faunal list of New Brunswick. Collection data, bionomic data, and distribution maps are presented for all these species. Keywords Silvanidae, Laemophloeidae, Leptophloeus, new records, Canada, New Brunswick Introduction This paper treats new records from New Brunswick of two related families of beetles, the Silvanidae and the Laemophoeidae.

A revision of Taiwanese species in the genus Psammoecus Latreille (Coleoptera, Silvanidae). Zool Stud 57:18. doi:10.6620/ZS.2018.57-18. Takahiro Yoshida, Michael Karner, and Toshiya Hirowatari (2018) This study revises the taxonomy of Taiwanese species in the genus Psammoecus Latreille, 1829. A new species, P. taiwanensis sp. nov., is described, and six species from Taiwan are recoded for the first time: P. harmandi, Grouvelle, 1912, P. dentatus Grouvelle, 1883, P. trimaculatus Motschulsky, 1858, P. triguttatus Reitter, 1874, P. labyrinthicus Yoshida and Hirowatari, 2014 and P. hiranoi Yoshida and Hirowatari, 2013. The following taxonomic synonyms are proposed: P. delicatus Grouvelle, 1908 = P. x-notatus Grouvelle, 1912 syn. nov. = P. nitidior Grouvelle, 1919 syn. nov. = P. raffrayi Grouvelle, 1919 syn. nov.; P. harmandi, Grouvelle, 1912 = P. boreas Yoshida and Hirowatari, 2014 syn. nov.; P. dentatus Grouvelle, 1883 = P. scitus Yoshida and Hirowatari, 2014 syn. nov.; P. simonis Grouvelle, 1892 = P. stultus Grouvelle, 1912 syn. nov.
