The genus Hadesia is revised. Two new species are described. Hadesia vasiceki weiratheri Zariquiey is upgraded to the rank of species. Several new localities are listed. Identification keys are given for the species of the genus Hadesia and for the genera of the subtribe Anthroherponina. KEY WORDS. Coleoptera, troglobitic species, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Montenegro, Anthroherponina. 1- INTRODUCTION The representatives of the genus Hadesia Muller, 1911 lives in Herzegovina and Montenegro. Up to now, it contained one species with two subspecies nominotypical Hadesia vasiceki vasiceki Muller, 1911, found only in a single cave: Vjetrenica pecina in Zavala and Hadesia vasiceki weiratheri Zariquiey, 1927, known from the type locality: Vojvode Dakovica pecina in Grahovo (Montenegro) and from jama Bravenik in Grab, near 'frebinje (Herzegovina) (PRETNER, 1974). Recent samplings in jama Bravenik and new localities in Croatia (spilja pod Gromackom Vlakom near Dubrovnik), Herzegovina (peCina Veliko Datlo in Korita) and Montenegro (Krivosije, Duboka jama near Knezlaz, and in Vodena jama in the Dragaljsko polje near Umac) make a revision of this genus necessary. The result is the increase the number of species of the genus to 4 with the description of two new species: one for the population of Veliko Datlo peCina and the other for the population of Jama Bravenik, and by the upgrade of the subspecies weiratheri Zariquiey to the rank of species. 2- METHODS The microscopic slides of female genitalia have been obtained after treatment in KOH 0.1 N, coloration with Azoblack and inclusion in Euparal or DMHF. The photonic pictures were made on a microscope ZEISS axiolab with a digital camera SPOT. SEM pictures have been taken on a scanning electron microscope JEOL JSM 840A after metal coating. The phylogenetic analysis has been performed with the software PAUP.

Length 6.7 to 7.6 mm. General shape of the body elongated, with narrow head and pronotum, and wide elytra, eyeless, wingless and weakly pigmented. Head approximately 1. 7 times as long as wide (fig. 7). Surface strongly microreticulated, with some strong points on the occipital part only, with no occipital carina. Insertion of the antennae located before the first quarter of the length of the head. Second antennomere very short compared to the other antennomeres, much shorter than the first and the third ones. Labrum trapezoid with long setae on the dorsal side (fig. 7), and with a median notch on the anterior edge (fig. 13). Maxillae short with brushes of setae and sensillae both on the galea and the lacinia which is reduced (figs. 11 & 12). lVIaxillary palps with long first and second palpomeres, and a very short terminal palpomere (fig. 11). Labium with two rows of long setae on the ventral side and a high triangular longitudinal structure on the dorsal side (fig. 10). Labial palps extremely short, the second palpomere transverse (fig. 10). Mandibles angulate in dorsal view, the apex flat and vertical with 7 small teeth (figs. 8 & 9). Thorax: pronotum narrow, slightly wider than the head, the widest part in the middle, 1.5 to 1.56 times as long as wide according to the species and the specimen, without a marginal lateral carina, but with a thin marginal anterior and posterior carina. Dorsal surface smooth, with no setae, with very tiny punctures and a superficial microreticulation, the macroscopic aspect shiny. Shoulder with a lateral deep groove (fig. 23). Scutellum wide and long, widely covered by the pronotum. Elytra around two times as long as wide. Elytral sculpture rough with randomly disposed short (probably hydrophobic) setae, the macroscopic aspect matt and silky (fig. 28). Preapical region of the epipleuron more or less interrupted according to the sexes and the species. Humeral region of the epipleuron more or less thickened according to the species (figs. 24 & 25). Abdomen: mesosterna! carina interrupted, the mesocoxal cavities widely confluent (fig. 26). First abdominal ventrite with a carina roughly parallel to the anterior edge (figs. 26 & 27), delimiting a smooth surface with a weaker microreticulation and a shiny aspect, between the anterior edge and the carina (fig. 27). Such a smooth plate exists also along the anterior margin of the other visible ventrites (fig. 26) but the carina occurs only on the first one. Appendages: femora enlarged in the basal parts. Protibias without a longitudinal and lateral row of little spines and without an external apical spur. Mesotibias and metatibias without an apical ring of spines of equal length. Empodium of tarsi with two setae. Claws widely dilated (fig. 29). MALE. EJytra: preapical region of the epipleuron with a weak sinuosity. Abdomen: metasternum without lateral hollows as are in females. Appendages: all tarsi five segmented and not dilated. M. Perreau & D. Pavicevic: The genus Hadesia Muller 217 Aedeagus: median lobe long, strongly curved, thick with a prepical widening (in dorsal view) and an apical expansion in lateral view (figs. 30 to 33). The thickness of the prepical part of the aedeagus is variable according to the species, varying from a strong hump (H. vasiceki Muller), to an hardly perceptible sinuosity (H. lakotai n. sp, H. weiratheri Zariquiey). The length of the apical expansion varies also according to the species. Internal sac with a long and slim stylus (figs. 34 to 37). Parameres thin, slightly shorter than the median lobe, with four setae, two short subapical ones and and two apical one which are variable in size. The size of the two apical setae varies within populations and cannot be used as a specific discriminant. Genital segments: urite IX reduced to a ring, as most of Leptodirini. FEMALE. Elytra: preapical region of the epipleuron with a tooth followed towards the apex of the elytra by an indentation. The size of the tooth and the depth of the indentation are variable according to the species (figs. 14 to 16). Abdomen: first abdominal visible ventrite with two deep lateral hollows (fig. 26). Appendages: protarsi four segmented, meso and metatarsi five segmented. All tarsi not dilated. Genital segments: ventrite VIII without expansion on the anterior edge. Urite IX with reduced sclerified parts, without appendicular parts (gonocoxites and gonosubcoxites, cf. Deuve, 2001 for terminology), with the epipleurites reduced to small circular lateral plates and the mediotergite reduced to a semicircular arc (fig. 21). Spermatheca long and curved, with the apex differently shaped according to the species (figs. 17 to 20). Four species are presently recorded in the genus. 1.

In order to do this it is convenient .to consider the geology from a tectonic point of view, tectonics being the study of the large scale uplift and subsidence of the earth's crust and the movements along major crusted fractures. The geologic map of Alaska shows a rather orderly arrangement of arcuate metamorphic-igneous belts flanked by late Mesozoic sedi- ments and Cenozeic basins, all expressions of We tectonic frame work. These armate belts are followed or cut at small angles by major arcuate fractures or lineaments which in some areas appear to control the location of igneous intrusive and extrusive rocks and ore deposits. I intend to discuss first the development ef these regional geol-ogic features, and then, a possible relationship of ore districts with them. The whole of Alaska lies within a mobi1.e belt that extends along the Pacific fringe of the North and South American continents. For most Of its length this belt is the transition zone between the Pacific Ocean basin and the continental platforms and along it the crust has been more mobile than in either the ocean areas or on the continent.

  • Chorological Characterization and Distribution of the Balkan Endemic Vascular Flora in Bosnia and Herzegovina
    38 (1): (2014) 167-184 Original Scientific Paper Chorological characterization and distribution of the Balkan endemic vascular flora in Bosnia and Herzegovina Biljana Lubarda1, Vladimir Stupar2, Đorđije Milanović2 and Vladimir Stevanović3✳ 1 Faculty of Science, University of Banja Luka, Republic of Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina 2 Faculty of Forestry, University of Banja Luka, Republic of Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina 3 Institute of Botany, Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade, Serbia ABSTRacT: 298 endemic taxa at the species and subspecies rank have been found in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H). Each taxon has been classified into its corresponding chorological group, subgroup and floristic element. The basic chorological structure of endemic Balkan flora in B&H is composed of five main groups: South-European Mountainous (SEM) with 112 taxa, 38% of the total endemic Balkan flora in B&H; Mediterranean - Submediterranean (MED-SUBMED), 77 taxa (26%); Central-European Mountainous (CEM) with 69 taxa (23%); Central-European (CE) with 34 taxa (11%); and Pontic (PONT) with six taxa (2%). Within SEM and CEM groups, the most abundant were Dinaric and Dinaric-Balkan elements, in the MED-SUBMED group it was Adriatic Submediterranean, while in the CE group there were Illyrian and Illyrian-Balkan floristic elements. The distribution of each taxon in B&H was mapped in the network of MGRS squares, with a precision level of 10 km. The richness of Balkan endemic flora in B&H was presented as the number of taxa, at the species and subspecies ranks in each MGRS square 10 x10 km. In the same way, the distribution of endemic taxa of each basic chorological groups was represented.

Izvleček Na podlagi sigmatistične metode in s pomočjo numeričnih analiz smo proučevali ekologijo rastišč kratkozobe kadulje Salvia brachyodon (Lamiaceae), ozkega endemita vzhodnega Jadrana omejenega na zgolj tri nahajališča. Ugotovili smo štiri tipe sestojev, ki se floristično in ekološko dobro razlikujejo in se ujemajo z lokacijami rastišč.
