Wuppertal 53 158- 205 Wuppertal, 15.12.2000 Das Käfervorkommen im Burgholz - Untersuchungsaspekte von 1952 bis 1996 Wolfgang Kolbe Mit 1 Tabelle Abstract Since the beginning of the second part of the 20'h century systematic collections ofbeetles were made to investigate the forest populations of the Burgholz State Forest in Wuppertal and Solingen (Northrhine­ Westphalia, Germany). H.-U. TRIELE was the first, who studied comparatively the composition of animal communities - among other arthropods also the beetles- of 9 testareas in the Burgholz State Forest (1952/53). A new phase in exploration of Coleoptera starts 1969. Over a period of 25 years investigations were made to explore the Coleoptera. One aspect was the influence of the red ants (Formica polyctena) as enemies of carabids.- Very important apparatures to study the structure and dynamic of several populations are pitfall traps, ground photoeclectors and arboreal photoeclectors. Within the catched beetle species above all Staphylinidae, Curculionidae, Scolytidae und Rhizophagidae are in the centre of interest. Important results yield also the investigation in different types offorests (exotic and indigenous wood­ land trees ), Anfang der zweiten Hälfte des vergangeneu Jahrhunderts begannen die gezielten Aufsammlungen von Käfern in den Wäldern des Staatsforstes Burgholz in Wupper­ tal und Solingen. Es war Hans-Ulrich TRIELE, der 1952 und 1953 die Aufnahme von Tierbeständen zur Erfassung der Tiergesellschaften in der Bodenstreu verschie­ dener Waldtypen des Niederbergischen Landes durchführte. Neun seiner insgesamt 27 Probeflächen befanden sich im Burgholz; dabei handelte es sich um Buchen­ Traubeneichen-Wälder, Fichten- und Lärchenaufforstungen. Hier ein Zitat aus sei­ ner einschlägigen Publikation: "Von allen in dieser Arbeit behandelten Tiergruppen stellen die Käfer die artenreichste dar.

  • HADULLA WAGNER 2016 Hundsbachtal
    Mitt. Arb.gem. Rhein. Koleopterologen (Bonn) 26 , 2016, 11–25 Zur Käferfauna (Coleoptera) der Blockhalden im Hundsbachtal bei Gerolstein Ergebnisse der Gemeinschaftsexkursionen der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Rheinischer Koleopterologen im April 2013 KARL HADULLA & THOMAS WAGNER Kurzfassung: Im Naturschutzgebiet Hundsbachtal südwestlich von Gerolstein in der Eifel befindet sich in einer Blockschutthalde am Rande eines Basaltschlacken- vulkans ein bekannter Standort für Glazialrelikte der Tierwelt. Am 13. April 2013 fand eine Exkursion statt, während der auch Bodenfallen tief in den Blockschutt ausgebracht und zwei Wochen später eingeholt wurden. Es konnten insgesamt 210 Käferarten nachgewiesen werden, 24 in Bodenfallen und davon acht ausschließlich mit dieser Methode. Darunter waren eine Anzahl cavernicoler Arten, dabei auch Choleva lederiana als Erstfund für das Rheinland, sowie der blockhaldenspezifische Kurzflügler Leptusa simonii . Ein Wiederfund nach 50 Jahren für die Rheinprovinz ist Orthocerus clavicornis . Auf die taxonomisch-nomenklatorischen Änderungen von Choleva lederiana , deren Berücksichtigung in der Bestimmungsliteratur und ihre aktuelle mitteleuropäische Verbreitung, wird im Besonderen eingegangen. Abstract: The Nature Reserve „Hundsbachtal“ southwest of Gerolstein, Eifel moun- tains in Western Germany, has a large scree slope along an pleistocaene volcano and is a well known area for glacial relict species. During an excursion on 13th of April 2013 pitfall traps have been set most deeply in rubble that were collected two weeks later. Altogether 210 beetle species could be found, 24 in the pitfall traps, and eight of them exclusively with this method. Beyond the numerous cavernicolous beetles, many Choleva lederiana could be found for the first time in the Rhineland, further- more the scree slope typic staphylinid Leptusa simonii . As a recapture after fifty years in the Rhineland, Orthocerus clavicornis was found on gravel ground covered with lichens close to the mouth of the Hundsbach creek.

  • ARTHROPODA Subphylum Hexapoda Protura, Springtails, Diplura, and Insects

HOARE, MARIE-CLAUDE LARIVIÈRE, PENELOPE GREENSLADE, ROSA C. HENDERSON, COURTenaY N. SMITHERS, RicarDO L. PALMA, JOHN B. WARD, ROBERT L. C. PILGRIM, DaVID R. TOWNS, IAN McLELLAN, DAVID A. J. TEULON, TERRY R. HITCHINGS, VICTOR F. EASTOP, NICHOLAS A. MARTIN, MURRAY J. FLETCHER, MARLON A. W. STUFKENS, PAMELA J. DALE, Daniel BURCKHARDT, THOMAS R. BUCKLEY, STEVEN A. TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000).
