Uppsala, Sweden 2018. First records from Sweden of eight sawfly taxa are presented:Arge annulata Konow, 1891 (Argidae), Allantus cingillipes (Kontuniemi, 1947), Allantus melanarius (Klug, 1818), Apethymus cereus (Klug, 1818), Dolerus liogaster schneideri Kiaer, 1898, Fenusella hor- tulana (Klug, 1818), Monophadnus spinolae (Klug, 1816), and Tenthredo mandibularis Fabricius, 1804 (Tenthredinidae). The problematic taxonomic status of Arge annulata is discussed, and it is recorded for the first time from Germany and Estonia. For Heptam- elus dahlbomi (Thomson, 1870) (Heptamelidae): a lectotype is designated for Caenoneura dahlbomi, H. ussuriensis Malaise, 1931 is placed as its junior synonym, Athyrium distenti- folium recorded as a new host, and additional distribution data are presented, including the first records from Austria. A lectotype is designated forHeptamelus magnocularis Malaise, 1931, and this species briefly compared withH. dahlbomi.

It nests in holes in trees and buildings and sometimes even in bird boxes. The nest is quite large, with a queen and 150 workers or more. The bee flies in the spring and loves visiting fruit trees, raspberries and a host of wild plants. Red-tailed Bumblebee Bombus lapidarius BEE SIZE 12 mm CONTRIBUTION TO FOOD 100 IMPORTANCE TO WILD FLOWERS 50 MOBILITY 14 STING 31 This is a large black bumblebee with a distinctive bright orange tail. It is common over much of Europe and is at home in towns and cities as well as in open countryside and farmland. The nests are often made in old mouse burrows. It is an important visitor to many crops and wild flowers, and flies throughout the spring and summer. Gypsy cuckoo bumblebee Bombus bohemicus BEE SIZE 16 mm CONTRIBUTION TO FOOD 10 IMPORTANCE TO WILD FLOWERS 16 MOBILITY 12 STING 30 While most bumblebees build their own colonies, the female gypsy cuckoo bumblebee has a sneaky way of reproducing. They make no nest of their own but instead take over the nests of white- tailed bumblebees. This bee never collects pollen but they do visit flowers for nectar. There are 10 different types of cuckoo bumblebees in Europe.

Engelb aNatural History Museum of Denmark, University of Copenhagen, Universitetsparken 15, DK-2100 Copenhagen, Denmark bDivision of Entomology (Paleoentomology), Natural History Museum and Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology, 1501 Crestline Drive, Suite 140, University of Kansas, Lawrence KS 66045, USA *Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Published 17 December 2012 Abstract Sambia succinica gen. et sp.n. from Eocene Baltic amber is described and illustrated. It is apparently the first amber fossil that can be definitively assigned to Tenthredininae. It displays two diagnostic forewing characters for this subfamily: having a bend distally in vein R and the junctions of veins M and Rs + M with vein R being some distance from each other. The variance and possible transitions between the anal vein configurations among the genera in Tenthredininae is briefly discussed. Keywords amber inclusion, sawfly, Tertiary, Eocene, taxonomy Introduction Tenthredinidae is the largest family of non-apocritan Hymenoptera by far, comprising more than 5500 described species (Huber 2009; Taeger & Blank 2010). Together with five other families they comprise the Tenthredinoidea or true sawflies. The larvae of the members of the superfamily are all herbivores and most are external feeders on green parts of angiosperms; however, other host plants and feeding modes (e.g., leafrolling, leafmining, or galling in leaves, buds and shoots; see Nyman et al. 1998, 2000) do occur. Recent comprehensive treatments of the phylogeny of the basal hymenopteran lineages, while providing strong support for the Tenthredinoidea, have consistently failed to retrieve the Tenthredinidae as monophyletic (Vilhelmsen 2001; Schulmeister 2003; Ronquist et al.

  • The Associations Between Pteridophytes and Arthropods
    FERN GAZ. 12(1) 1979 29 THE ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN PTERIDOPHYTES AND ARTHROPODS URI GERSON The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Faculty of Agriculture, Rehovot, Israel. ABSTRACT Insects belonging to 12 orders, as well as mites, millipedes, woodlice and tardigrades have been collected from Pterldophyta. Primitive and modern, as well as general and specialist arthropods feed on pteridophytes. Insects and mites may cause slight to severe damage, all plant parts being susceptible. Several arthropods are pests of commercial Pteridophyta, their control being difficult due to the plants' sensitivity to pesticides. Efforts are currently underway to employ insects for the biological control of bracken and water ferns. Although Pteridophyta are believed to be relatively resistant to arthropods, the evidence is inconclusive; pteridophyte phytoecdysones do not appear to inhibit insect feeders. Other secondary compounds of preridophytes, like prunasine, may have a more important role in protecting bracken from herbivores. Several chemicals capable of adversely affecting insects have been extracted from Pteridophyta. The litter of pteridophytes provides a humid habitat for various parasitic arthropods, like the sheep tick. Ants often abound on pteridophytes (especially in the tropics) and may help in protecting these plants while nesting therein. These and other associations are discussed . lt is tenatively suggested that there might be a difference in the spectrum of arthropods attacking ancient as compared to modern Pteridophyta. The Osmundales, which, in contrast to other ancient pteridophytes, contain large amounts of ·phytoecdysones, are more similar to modern Pteridophyta in regard to their arthropod associates. The need for further comparative studies is advocated, with special emphasis on the tropics.

Seleucus cuneiformis Holmgren, 1860, was reared from Blasticotoma filiceti Klug, 1834 (Hymenoptera: Blasticotomidae). Seleucus cuneiformis Holmgren is new to the fauna of Austria.

Blasticotomidae form a small and rarely collected family of small wasps (6-9 mm) main- ly restricted to the Palaearctic region and the border with the Oriental region (Taeger et al. 2010), with only one European species, Blasticotoma filiceti Klug, 1834. The family is considered to be one of the oldest extant families of Tenthredinoidea (Rasnitsyn 1988, 2002) and the blasticotomid lineage probably separated from the rest of Tenthredi- noidea as early as 280 Ma (Ronquist et al.

PSCHORN-WALCHER Abstract: Larval collections and rearings have been made of the European species of the sawfly genera Metallus, Monostegia, and Phymatocera. The biology of Metallus albipes, a leaf-miner specialized on raspberries, is described in some detail. M. pumilus has been reared mainly from dewberries (Rubus caesius), less often from rock bramble (R. saxatilis), but has rarely been found on blackberries (R. fruticosus agg.). M. lanceolatus, mining the leaves of wood avens (Geum urbanum), is also briefly dealt with. The larvae of these leaf-miners are described and a total of 11 species of parasitoids have been reared from them, including 3 highly specific Ichneumonid species of the genera Lathrolestes and Grypocentrus. Monostegia nigra, an entirely black sawfly species separated from M. abdominalis by TAEGER (1987), has been reared from Lysimachia punctata in gardens. In contrast to M. abdominalis, frequently reared also from L. vulgaris (yellow loosestrife), M. nigra lays several eggs dispersed over a leaf (not in an oblong cluster) and the head capsule of the larvae is uniformly yellowish (not with a dark stripe on the vertex).

Journal of Hymenoptera Research 74: 1–25. https://doi.org/10.3897/jhr.74.39299 Abstract The sawfly genus Empria Lepeletier & Serville (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae: Allantinae) is reviewed in South Korea and four species are reported as new in the country: Empria lycroi Prous & Park, sp. nov. (also Russia); E. nigroterga Park & Lee, sp. nov. (also Russia); E. wui Wei & Nie (also Japan); and E. zhangi Wei & Yan (also Russia). Tenthredo magnicornis Eversmann, 1864, syn. nov. is treated as a synonym of E. candidata (Fallén, 1808). A key to the six species currently known from South Korea and photographs of the diagnostic characters for each species are presented.
