Price1 and Daniel K. Young1 ABSTRACT The first comprehensive survey of Wisconsin Endomychidae was initiated in 1998. Throughout Wisconsin sampling sites were selected based on habitat type and sampling history. Wisconsin endomychids were hand collected from fungi and under tree bark; successful trapping methods included cantharidin- baited pitfall traps, flight intercept traps, and Lindgren funnel traps. Examina- tion of literature records, museum and private collections, and field research yielded 10 species, three of which are new state records. Two dubious records, Epipocus unicolor Horn and Stenotarsus hispidus (Herbst), could not be con- firmed.

  • A Review of the Japanese Kateretidae Fauna (Coleoptera: Cucujoidea)
    ACTA ENTOMOLOGICA MUSEI NATIONALIS PRAGAE Published 9.xii.2011 Volume 51(2), pp. 551–585 ISSN 0374-1036 A review of the Japanese Kateretidae fauna (Coleoptera: Cucujoidea) Sadatomo HISAMATSU Entomological Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Ehime University, Tarumi 3–5–7, Matsuyama, 790–8566 Japan; e–mail: [email protected] Abstract. The family Kateretidae of Japan is revised. Nine species belonging to 6 genera are recognized, including: Kateretes japonicus Hisamatsu, 1985, K. takagii S-T. Hisamatsu, 2006, Platamartus jakowlewi Reitter, 1892, Heterhelus (Heterhelus) scutellaris (Heer, 1841), H. (Heterhelus) morio (Reitter, 1878), H. (Boreades) solani (Heer, 1841), Sibirhelus corpulentus (Reitter, 1900), Brachyp- terus urticae (Fabricius, 1792), and Brachypterolus pulicarius (Linnaeus, 1758). Heterhelus morio, which was synonymized under H. scutellaris by KIREJTSHUK (1989), is found to be a valid species, and is herein resurrected. Platamartus jakowlewi is newly recorded from Japan. Brachypterolus shimoyamai Hisamatsu, 1985, syn. nov., is synonymized under Brachypterolus pulicarius. Dorsal habitus images, illustrations of male and female genitalia, and other important diagnostic characters are provided for all species. A key for identifi cation of all Japanese taxa is also provided. Key words. Coleoptera, Kateretidae, taxonomy, new synonym, new record, key, Japan, Palaearctic Region Introduction The family Kateretidae, belonging to the superfamily Cucujoidea, is mainly distributed in the Holarctic Region, and comprises about 95 species within 14 genera worldwide (JELÍNEK & CLINE 2010). Both larval and adult Kateretidae are anthophagous: the larvae are monophagous or oligophagous, while adults are more generalized feeders, occurring on true host plants only during mating and ovipositing periods; otherwise, they feed on a broader assortment of fl owering plants (JELÍNEK & CLINE 2010).

Biodiversity Data Journal 2: e1019. doi: 10.3897/BDJ.2.e1019 Abstract The flora of Tropical Asia is among the richest in the world, yet the actual diversity is estimated to be much higher than previously reported. Myanmar and Thailand are adjacent countries that together occupy more than the half the area of continental Tropical Asia. This geographic area is diverse ecologically, ranging from cool-temperate to tropical climates, and includes from coast, rainforests and high mountain elevations. An updated checklist of aquatic plants, which includes 78 species in 44 genera from 24 families, are presented based on floristic works. This number includes seven species, that have never been listed in the previous floras and checklists. The species (excluding non-indigenous taxa) were categorized by five geographic groups with the exception of to reflect the rich diversity of the countries' floras.

    Age-specific life table studies of potential strains or host races of Calophasia lunula (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) (Hufn.) reared on Dalmation toadflax, Linaria genistifolia ssp. dalmatica (L.) Maire and Petitmengen, or yellow toadflax, Linaria vulgaris (Mill.) by Todd Alan Breitenfeldt A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology Montana State University © Copyright by Todd Alan Breitenfeldt (1995) Abstract: Although the possible existence of host races in phytophagous biological control agents has only recently come under general consideration when screening and releasing these agents, the implications for successful establishment and impact on the target weed, and for minimizing impacts on nontarget plant species are enormous. The issues of potential host races and strain differences were investigated for different populations of the defoliating moth, Caloohasia lunula, which attacks Dalmatian toadflax, Linaria genistifolia ssp. dalmatica (L.) Maire and Petitmengen, and yellow toadflax, Linaria vulgaris (Mill'.), using age-specific life table studies. Life table studies of the three Calophasia populations (one obtained from Europe on Yellow toadflax, another obtained from yellow toadflax in Europe and established on Dalmatian toadflax in Montana, and the third obtained from Dalmatian toadflax from Yugoslavia) were tested on both Dalmatian toadflax and yellow toadflax. Little evidence of host races was evident. Caloohasia lunula rates of development and weight gain, survivorship,

September 1997 Specimens representing 19 orders and 169 arthropod families (mostly insects) were collected from greenleaf manzanita brushfields in northeastern California and identified to species whenever possible. More than500 taxa below the family level wereinventoried, and each listing includes relative frequency of encounter, life stages collected, and dominant role in the greenleaf manzanita community.
