The Nomenclature of British Insects; Being a Compendious List Of THE NOMENCLATURE OF BRITISH INSECTS; B E IN G A COMPENDIOUS LIST OF SUCH SPECIES AS ARE CONTAINED IN T H E SYSTEMATIC CATALOGUE OF BRITISH INSECTS, AND FORMING A GUIDE TO THEIR CLASSIFICATION, &C. &C. BY JAMES FRANCIS STEPHENS, F.L.&Z.S. i n ./.ItV ! I' ? Oil IO ( Í I LONDON: PUBLISHED^ FOR THE AUTHOR, BY BALDWIN AND CRADOCK. 1829. LONDON: PRINTED BY THOMAS DAVISON, WHITEFRIARS. ADDRESS. My Systematic Catalogue of British Insects having extended considerably beyond the limits originally designed, I have been induced to publish the subjoined abridgment thereof, in a form that may be conveniently carried in the pocket for reference while travelling, or for the purpose of marking off desiderata, ticketing cabinets, &c. Notwithstanding its extreme compactness, it con­ tains the names of nearly 10,000 species, a far greater number than any other individual can possibly introduce, as no indigenous col­ lection hitherto formed is equal in extent throughout all the orders to the one which I possess, and which is arranged in conformity to the following Catalogue. In accordance with the plan adopted in my other publications, I have inserted all the described species of doubtful origin, as well as those whose names have as yet appeared in MSS. only, as the greater portion of the latter will ultimately appear in my Illustrations; and the mere introduction of a name does not necessarily imply that it must be imprinted on the memory:—the former insects are distinguished by having their names in italics; and the latter (as well as uncharacterized genera) by having the names of their authors similarly distinguished :—to such insects as I possess foreign specimens of alone, a J is attached, and a t to those which are desiderata. %* The names of the genera between ( ) being pre-occupied must be changed :—and where figures are introduced, they indicate the number of species in the respective genera.

Un ridotto numero di specie svolge in Europa il ciclo vitale all’interno degli alberi morti a terra o in piedi e questi sono perciò considerate a tutti gli effetti come invertebrati saproxilici, al contrario molte altre entità geofile passano solo parte della loro esistenza nel legno morto e vengono definiti come subxaproxilici, o xaproxilici temporanei, ma tutti svolgono come predatori un ruolo importante nella regolazione dei processi di decomposizione del legno (BELL, 1994; SPEIGHT, 1989; SCHLAGHAMERSKÝ, 2000).

Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) Abstract Increasing forest management resulting from bark beetle attack in British Columbia's forests has created a need to assess the impact of single species management on local insect biodiversity. In the Fort St James Forest District, in central British Columbia, Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii Franco) (Fd) grows at the northern limit of its North American range. At the district level the species is rare (representing 1% of timber stands), and in the early 1990's growing populations of the Douglas-fir beetle (Dendroctonus pseudotsuage Hopkins) threatened the loss of all mature Douglas-fir habitat in the district.

The morphological variability and different modes of life result from beetle ability to adapt to all kinds of habitats. Terrestrial and soil living forms dominate. Beetles undergo a complete metamorphosis and most species live in soil during at least one of the stages. They include predators, herbivores, parasites and sapro- phagans, playing a fairly significant role in nature and in man’s economy. Our knowledge of beetles, even of the common species, is insufficient. In spite of the fact that the beetle fauna of Central Europe has been studied relatively well, the knowledge accumulated is generally limited to the adults, while the immature stages have not been adequately studied.

E-mails: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] * corresponding author ABSTRACT: This report concerns macro-remains of arthropods from Neogene sites in Alaska and northern Canada. New data from known or recently investigated localities are presented and comparisons made with faunas from equivalent latitudes in Asia and Greenland. Many of the Canadian sites belong to the Beaufort Formation, a prime source of late Tertiary plant and insect fossils. But new sites are continually being discovered and studied and among the most informative of these are several from the high terrace gravel on Ellesmere Island. One Ellesmere Island locality, known informally as the “Beaver Peat” contains spectacularly well preserved plant and arthropod fossils, and is the only Pliocene site in Arctic North America to yield a variety of vertebrate fossils. Like some of the other “keystone” localities discussed here, it promises to be important for dating and correlation as well as for documenting high Arctic climatic and environmental conditions during the Pliocene.

    RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN DEAD WOOD AND ARTHROPODS IN THE SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES by MICHAEL DARRAGH ULYSHEN (Under the Direction of James L. Hanula) ABSTRACT The importance of dead wood to maintaining forest diversity is now widely recognized. However, the habitat associations and sensitivities of many species associated with dead wood remain unknown, making it difficult to develop conservation plans for managed forests. The purpose of this research, conducted on the upper coastal plain of South Carolina, was to better understand the relationships between dead wood and arthropods in the southeastern United States. In a comparison of forest types, more beetle species emerged from logs collected in upland pine-dominated stands than in bottomland hardwood forests. This difference was most pronounced for Quercus nigra L., a species of tree uncommon in upland forests. In a comparison of wood postures, more beetle species emerged from logs than from snags, but a number of species appear to be dependent on snags including several canopy specialists. In a study of saproxylic beetle succession, species richness peaked within the first year of death and declined steadily thereafter. However, a number of species appear to be dependent on highly decayed logs, underscoring the importance of protecting wood at all stages of decay. In a study comparing litter-dwelling arthropod abundance at different distances from dead wood, arthropods were more abundant near dead wood than away from it. In another study, ground- dwelling arthropods and saproxylic beetles were little affected by large-scale manipulations of dead wood in upland pine-dominated forests, possibly due to the suitability of the forests surrounding the plots.

  • Ecology and Condition of the Ground Beetle Scaphinotus Angusticollis
    Ecology and Condition of the Ground Beetle Scaphinotus angusticollis and Distribution of its Prey in Pacific Northwest Riparian Forests by Susanne L. Lavallee B.Sc (University of British Columbia), 1994 M.Sc (University of British Columbia, Zoology), 1999 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY In THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Forestry) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA September 2006 © Susanne L. Lavallee, 2006 Abstract I studied the population ecology of the flightless, forest-dwelling carabid beetle Scaphinotus angusticollis Fischer Von Waldheim (O. Coleoptera F. Carabidae) and several aspects of its body condition for their associations with forest harvesting. Comparison of population estimates revealed that catch-per-unit-effort estimates were not significantly different from more detailed analyses. In two years of trapping, S. angusticollis population densities were found to be significantly lower in clearcuts, as compared to 30 m riparian reserves and uncut forest, suggesting that riparian buffers provide adequate habitat to maintain populations of this terrestrial insect. Movement of S. angusticollis differed in the three habitats studied between years and treatments, with the greatest movement occurring in 30 m buffers in one year and in control sites the next. Clearcuts had the lowest amount of movement in both years. One of the known prey species for S. angusticollis, snails < 2 cm in diameter, were more abundant in clearcut habitat, with Ancotrema hybridum the most abundant species. Canonical correspondence analysis suggests that only A. hybridum were positively correlated with plant cover, and that other species abundances may rely on coarse, downed wood as cover.
