The Pauropoda
"* IX «- THE PAUROPODA THE members of this group are minute, elongate, soft-bodied arthropods of the myriapod type of structure (fig. 70 A, B), but because of their relatively few legs, usually nine pairs in the adult stage, they have been named pauropods (Lubbock, 1868 ). A pauro pod of average size is about a millimeter in length, but some species are only half as long, and others reach a length of nearly 2 mm. Probably owing to their small size, the pauropods have no circulatory system and no tracheae or other differentiated organs of respiration. They live in moist places under logs and stones, on the ground among decaying leaves, and in the soil to a depth of several inches. The feeding habits of the pauropods are not well known, but their food has been thought to be humus and decaying plant and animal tissue. Starling (1944) says that mold fungi were observed to be the usual food of Pauropus carolinensis and that a "correlation appears to exist between the optimum temperature for mold growth in gen eral and high incidence of pauropod population." He gives reasons for believing that pauropods, where abundant, regardless of their small size, play a Significantpart in soil formation. A typical adult pauropod (fig. 70 B) has a relatively small, conical head and an elongate body of 12 segments, counting as segments the first and the last body divisions, which are known respectively as the collum (Col) and the pygidium (Pyg). Statements by other writers as to the number of segments may vary, because some do not include the pygidium as a segment and some exclude both the collum and the pygidium, but such differences are merely a matter of definition for a "segment." 250 THE PAUROPODA The number of legs in an adult pauropod, except in one known species, is invariably nine pairs, the first pair being on the second body segment, the last on the tenth (fig. -

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Robert Frank Koontz for the Ph. D. (Name of student) (Degree) in Entomology presented onFebruary 14, 1968 (Major) (Date) Title: BIOLOGICAL AND ECOLOGICAL RELATIONSHIPS OF THE FUNGUS, ENTOMOPHTHORA CORONATA (COSTANTIN) KEVORKIAN, AND THE GARDEN SYMPHYLAN, SCUTIGERELLA IMMACULATA (NEWPORT) Signature redacted for privacy. Abstract approved: Clarence G. Thoripson I A study was made to determine biological relationships between the garden symphylan, Scutigerella immaculata (Newport), and an entomogenous fungus, Entomophthora coronata (Costantin), which attacks it under certain conditions.Until this fungus was found to infect this pest, no organism which seemed to offer prom- ise of control had been discovered. Symphylan populations were exposed to coronata and the pathology followed.When i ew syrnphylans were added to an in- fected culture as the diseased individuals died, an epizootic condition developed to apoint at which symphylans were infected and killed in less than two days. E. coronata survived in contaminated containers for as much as five months without susceptible hosts asevidenced by infection of reintroduced symphylans. Wax moth larvae, Galleria, and European house crickets showed high mortality when injected with spores suspended in physiological saline solution.Wax moth larvae and mealworms, Tenebrio, were infected when they were dusted with spores and incubated at 15°C temperature in high humidity. Penetration of the cuticle by germ tubes from attached spores is the usual pathway of infection. Temperature ranges for both organisms correspond closely. Both become active a few degrees above freezing and reach an optimum between 20° and 300G.Lethal temperature for both is somewhat below 37° C. -

25 Mitt. dtsch. malakozool. Ges. 92 25 – 58 Frankfurt a. M., Dezember 2014 Wandel der Muschelfauna der Untermain-Ebene in drei Jahrzehnten 1984-2014 (Bivalvia: Unionidae, Sphaeriidae, Corbiculidae, Dreissenidae) Teil I. Der Main und seine Zuflüsse HASKO NESEMANN Abstract: At present, the lower Main River and its tributaries (Germany: Hesse, Bavaria) is inhabited by 31 freshwater Bivalvia out of which 29 species were recorded alive. A remarkable faunal change has been ob- served within the last thirty years, caused by improvement of biological water quality and invasion of five alien species Corbicula fluminea, C. fluminalis, Dreissena rostriformis bugensis, Musculium transversum and Sinano- donta woodiana. The populations of the endangered species Pseudanodonta complanata, (Red List category 1 in Hesse), Unio tumidus, Anodonta cygnea, Pisidium amnicum and P. moitessierianum (Red List category 2 in Hesse) are locally increasing and recovering. Pisidium crassum, P. ponderosum and P. sp. (“var. humeriformis”) are new records for the state fauna of Hesse. Keywords: Freshwater Bivalvia, River Main, Lower Main plain, Germany: Hesse, Bavaria. Zusammenfassung: Im Untermaingebiet wurden 31 Süßwassermuscheln nachgewiesen, von denen 29 durch Lebendvorkommen bestätigt sind. Der Faunenwandel innerhalb der letzten dreißig Jahre zeigt Veränderungen durch verbesserte Wasserqualität und durch Einwanderung bzw. Einschleppung fünf gebietsfremder Neozoen Corbicula fluminea, C. fluminalis, Dreissena rostriformis bugensis, Musculium transversum und Sinanodonta woodiana. Die im Bestand gefährdeten Arten Pseudanodonta complanata (Rote Liste 1 in Hessen), Unio tumi- dus, Anodonta cygnea, Pisidium amnicum und P. moitessierianum (Rote Liste 2 in Hessen) haben sich lokal ausgebreitet. Neunachweise für Hessen sind Pisidium crassum, P. ponderosum und P. sp. („var. humeriformis”). Einleitung Die Arbeit widmet sich der Veränderung der Muschelfauna im Unterlauf des Mains und seiner Zuflüs- se innerhalb der letzten dreißig Jahre. -

ÖDÖN TÖMÖSVÁRY (1852-1884), PIONEER of HUNGARIAN MYRIAPODOLOGY Zoltán Korsós Department of Zoology, Hungarian Natural
miriapod report 20/1/04 10:04 am Page 78 BULLETIN OF THE BRITISH MYRIAPOD AND ISOPOD GROUP Volume 19 2003 ÖDÖN TÖMÖSVÁRY (1852-1884), PIONEER OF HUNGARIAN MYRIAPODOLOGY Zoltán Korsós Department of Zoology, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Baross u. 13, H-1088 Budapest, Hungary E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Ödön (=Edmund) Tömösváry (1852-1884) immortalised his name in the science of myriapodology by discovering the peculiar sensory organs of the myriapods. He first described these organs in 1883 on selected species of Chilopoda, Diplopoda and Pauropoda. On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of Tömösváry’s birth, his unfortunately short though productive scientific career is overviewed, in this paper only from the myriapodological point of view. A list of the 32 new species and two new genera described by him are given and commented, together with a detailed bibliography of Tömösváry’s 24 myriapodological works and subsequent papers dealing with his taxa. INTRODUCTION Ödön Tömösváry is certainly one of the Hungarian zoologists (if not the only one) whose name is well- known worldwide. This is due to the discovery of a peculiar sensory organ which was later named after him, and it is called Tömösváry’s organ uniformly in almost all languages (French: organ de Tömösváry, German: Tömösvárysche Organ, Danish: Tömösvarys organ, Italian: organo di Tömösváry, Czech: Tömösváryho organ and Hungarian: Tömösváry-féle szerv). The organ itself is believed to be a sensory organ with some kind of chemical or olfactory function (Hopkin & Read 1992). However, although its structure was studied in many respects (Bedini & Mirolli 1967, Haupt 1971, 1973, 1979, Hennings 1904, 1906, Tichy 1972, 1973, Figures 4-6), the physiological background is still not clear today. -

Oktober 2004 Erstellung in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Bayerischen Landesamt für Denkmalpflege Mag. phil. Alexandra Feigl Siechenstraße 14 - 96052 Bamberg transform Tel. 0951/70043880 - [email protected] Naturraum und Lage Das ehemalige Klosterdorf Hofstädten gehört der naturräumlichen Haupteinheit Vorderer Spessart bzw. der Untereinheit Kahlgrund an. Die seit der Säkularisation eigenständige Gemeinde Hofstädten ist seit 1978 einer von 8 Ortsteilen der Verwaltungsgemeinschaft Schöllkrippen. Der Ort Schöllkrippen liegt rund 3 km südlich. Der innere Kahlgrund ist eine offene, stark aufgelöste Hügellandschaft mit ausgeglichenen Geländeformationen, in der die Dörfer in den relativ breiten Talungen der Kahl und ihrer Seitenbäche liegen. Wald tritt hier, im Gegensatz zum Hochspessart, nur inselhaft auf.1 Der Schneppenbach durchzieht die Gemarkung Hofstädten von Nordwest nach Südost, während kleine, stellenweise verrohrte Nebenbäche in den Seitentälern fließen (Wingertsbach im Osten, der Graben Strüttgrund im Süden und der Graben Blumich im Norden). Das Straßendorf Hofstädten erstreckt sich entlang der Talaue des Schneppenbaches sowie der Spessartstraße, die als Staatsstraße 2306 (zwischen Schneppenbach und Geiselbach), die Haupterschließungsachse darstellt. In der Talaue wird der tiefste Punkt des Ortes mit etwa 240 m über NN erreicht. Nördlich der Talaue steigt das Gelände besonders stark an. An die z.T. als Hausgärten oder Baumgärten angelegten Geländeterrassen grenzen die landwirtschaftlich genutzten Hochflächen (250-270 m über NN). Zu den übrigen Gemarkungsgrenzen hin vollzieht sich der Übergang von der Talaue zur Hochfläche sanfter. Höchster Punkt ist die Erhebung des Wingertsberges im Nordosten der Gemarkung mit rund 300 m über NN. -

Morphology and development provide compelling support for Diplopoda (millipedes) and Pauropoda being closest relatives, and moderate support for Symphyla being more closely related to the diplopod-pauropod group than any of them are to Chilopoda (centipedes). -

Breve definición del grupo y principales caracteres diagnósticos La clase Pauropoda pertenece a la superclase Myriapoda, formando el grupo Progoneata con Symphyla y Diplopoda y el clado Diagnatha con Diplopoda. La mayoría de las especies tienen muy poco desarrolladas las piezas bucales. Son terrestres, ciegos y lucífugos. Presentan un color blanquecino o amarillento, más oscuro en algunas especies. El cuerpo consta de una cabeza, un tronco segmentado y un pigidio con una placa anal. El tronco posee de 9 a 11 pares de patas marchadoras en los adultos, con 5 o 6 artejos. La longitud del cuerpo oscila entre 0,4 y 2 mm (Fig. 1 y 4, Lámina fotográfica). Las aberturas genitales se sitúan entre el segundo par de patas en la zona ventral. El pigidio anal consta de dos partes, una tergo-dorsal y otra externo-ventral; la placa anal, distinta específicamente, se encuentra bajo la parte dorsal del pigidio. El tronco posee terguitos con cinco pares de largas sedas táctiles o tricobotrios. Las zonas laterales reciben el nombre de pleuras. Las antenas son ramificadas y poseen un tallo segmentado. Los paurópodos, al igual que los Symphyla, buscan biotopos húmedos, viven en grietas del suelo y entre hojarasca. Se alimentan de hongos o de sustancias semilíquidas resultantes de la descomposición de plantas o animales.
