D ^browski received 18.VIII.2003 Abstract: New trophic relationships between Braconidae, Ichneumonidae, Chaleididae, Pteromalidae, Encyrtidae, Torymidae, Eulophidae (Hymenoptera) and burnets (Lepidoptera, Zygaenidae) collected in selected regions of southern Poland are considered. Introduction Over 30 species of insects from the family Zygaenidae (Lepidoptera) occur in Central Europe. The occurrence of sixteen of them was reported in Poland (D/^browski & Krzywicki , 1982; D/^browski, 1998). Most of these species are decidedly xerothermophilous, i.e. they inhabit dry, open and strongly insolated habitats. Among the species discussed in this paperZygaena (Zygaena) angelicae O chsenheimer, Z. (Agrumenia) carniolica (Scopoli) and Z (Zygaena) loti (Denis & Schiffermuller) have the greatest requirements in this respect, and they mainly live in dry, strongly insolated grasslands situated on lime and chalk subsoil. The remaining species occur in fresh and moist habitats, e. g. in forest meadows and peatbogs. Due to overgrowing of the habitats of these insects with shrubs and trees as a result of natural succession and re­ forestation, or other antropogenic activities (urbanization, land reclamation) their numbers decrease, and they become more and more rare and endangered. During many years of investigations concerning the family Zygaenidae their primary and secondary parasitoids belonging to several families of Hymenoptera were reared. The host species were as follows: Adscita (Adscita) statices (L.), Zygaena (Mesembrynus) brizae (Esper), Z (Mesembrynus) minos (Denis & Schiffermuller), Z.

ZooKeys 974: 23–29. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.974.55528 Abstract A new species, Cheiloneurus nankingensis sp. nov., from Eastern China is described. It is similar to C. arabiacus Hayat but distinct from it in a number of morphological characters. It is a hyperparasitoid with the encyrtid wasp Aenasius arizonensis Girault, 1915 as the primary host and the cotton mealybug Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley, 1898 (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) as the secondary host. A key to all seven species of Cheiloneurus known from China is presented.

(Fagaceae) trees infested with the coccid Kermes hermonensis Spodek & Ben-Dov (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Kermesidae) between 2013 and 2014, in Diyarbakır. As a result of the study, two parasitoids and two predators were obtained. These are: Cheiloneurus claviger Thomson, 1876; Metaphycus sp. (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae: Encyrtinae) and Brumus (Exochomus) quadripustulatus (Linnaeus, 1758), Chilocorus bipustulatus (L.) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae). B. (Exochomus) quadripustulatus and C. bipustulatus are the first records on K. hermonensis as predators in Turkey. K. hermonensis: Cheiloneurus claviger and Metaphycus sp. are the first records on K. hermonensis as parasitoids in Turkey. Key words: Kermes hermonensis, Cheiloneurus claviger, Metaphycus sp., Brumus (Exochomus) quadripustulatus, Chilocorus bipustulatus, Turkey. INTRODUCTION Kermesidae species in Turkey. The other members of the family Nidularia balackhowskii Kermesidae family (Kermesidae: Hemiptera) were found recently on Quercus spp. in many with 91 species in 9 genera (1 fossil species in places. (Ülgentürk et al., 2013). Kermes 1 fossil genus) generally specialized on the hermonensis Spodek & Ben-Dov was described plants belonging to Fagaceae. Family of as a new species in Turkey by Kaydan et al.

Portland, OR: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station. 168 p. An annotated list of species of insects and other arthropods that have been col- lected and studies on the H.J. Andrews Experimental forest, western Cascade Range, Oregon. The list includes 459 families, 2,096 genera, and 3,402 species. All species have been authoritatively identified by more than 100 specialists. In- formation is included on habitat type, functional group, plant or animal host, relative abundances, collection information, and literature references where available. There is a brief discussion of the Andrews Forest as habitat for arthropods with photo- graphs of representative habitats within the Forest. Illustrations of selected ar- thropods are included as is a bibliography. Keywords: Invertebrates, insects, H.J.

  • A Synopsis of the Encyrtidae of the Hawaiian Islands with Keys to General and Species (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidae), ] 2 3
    Vol. XXII, No. 2, Sept. 1976 181 A Synopsis of the Encyrtidae of the Hawaiian Islands with Keys to General and Species (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidae), ] 2 3 John W. Beardsley, Jr. UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII HONOLULU, HAWAII This paper is an attempt to update and summarize taxonomic and other biological data on Hawaiian Encyrtidae and to provide keys for their identification. The Hymenoptera Parasitica section of the Fauna Hawaiiensis (Ashmead, 1901) listed only four species of Encyrtidae (s. str.). The Supplement to Hymenoptera (Perkins, 1913) added ten more. Most of what is known about Hawaiian encyrtids resulted from the careful studies of P.H. Timberlake (1919a, 1919b, 1920, 1922, 1924a, 1924b). Excepting a review of the non- endemic species of the subtribe Anagyrina (Beardsley, 1969), more recent published information on Hawaiian encyrtids is found largely in scattered notes which record the identity and hosts of newly discovered adventive species. The Hawaiian encyrtid fauna contains both endemic and recently adventive elements. Of the 106 species in 60 genera which are treated here, 26 species are almost certainly endemic, two additional species possibly so, and the remaining 78 species are recent adventives. The endemic Encyrtidae comprise poorly known species complexes in the genera Anagyrus Howard, Coelopencyrtus Timberlake, Hypergonatopus Timberlake and Rhopus Foerster. Hypergonatopus and the closely related, monotypic Aulonops Timberlake are considered to be endemic genera, and the endemic species of Anagyrus have been placed in an endemic subgenus, Nesoanagyrus (Beardsley, 1969). In addition there are two monotypic genera, Euchalcerinys Timberlake and Xesmatia Timberlake, which are unknown outside Hawaii and may be endemic. Numerous species of Encyrtidae have been introduced purposely into Hawaii for biological control of insect pests, particularly against scale insects and mealybugs.
