Turkey Point Provincial Park TURKEY POINT PROVINCIAL PARK One Malaise trap was deployed at Turkey Point Provincial Park in 2014 (42.70515, -80.32849, 222m ASL; Figure 1). This trap collected arthropods for twenty weeks from April 28 – September 15, 2014. All 10 Malaise trap samples were processed; every other sample was analyzed using the individual specimen protocol while the second half was analyzed via bulk analysis. A total of 2434 BINs were obtained. Approximately half of the BINs captured were flies (Diptera), followed by bees, ants and wasps (Hymenoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and true bugs (Hemiptera; Figure 2). In total, 669 Figure 1. Malaise trap deployed at Turkey Point arthropod species were named, representing 30.4% Provincial Park in 2014. of the BINs from the site (Appendix 1). All but one of the BINs were assigned at least to family, and 62.1% were assigned to a genus (Appendix 2). Specimens collected from Turkey Point represent 237 different families and 776 genera.

Entomol. 54, 75-80. This contribution deals with additions and corrections to the list of Norwegian Coleoptera. The following three species are reported for the fi rst time from Norway: Nicrophorus interruptus Stephens, 1830 (Silphidae), Triphyllus bicolor (Fabricius, 1777) (Mycetophagidae) and Mordellaria aurofasciata (Comolli, 1837) (Mordellidae). Cryptolaemus montrouzieri Mulsant, 1853 (Coccinellidae) is reported for the fi rst time outside a greenhouse in Norway. This species is frequently used for biological control of mealy-bugs in greenhouses. Scymnus ater Kugelan, 1794 (Coccinellidae) is removed from the Norwegian list. The previous report of this species was based on a misidentifi cation. Key words: Coleoptera, Nicrophorus interruptus, Cryptolaemus montrouzieri, Mordellaria auro- fasciata, Triphyllus bicolor, Scymnus ater, Silphidae, Mordellidae, Mycetophagidae, Coccinellidae.

INTRODUCTION SPECIES ADDED TO THE NORWEGIAN LIST The Norwegian beetle-fauna is far from fully investigated, and new species to the Norwegian Silphidae fauna are still encountered. The aim of this paper is to add recent information concerning Norwegian Nicrophorus interruptus Stephens, 1830; Coleoptera, and to update additions and corrections nec Brullé, 1822 to the list. This is the sixth contribution in the [= Nicrophorus fossor Erichson, 1837] series. The latest one was Sagvolden & Hansen A single male was captured in a pitfall-trap at (2001).

Abstract: A three-year survey of Wisconsin Mordellidae (Coleoptera) encompassing a compilation of data from literature records and local collections as well as field work including trapping, hand-collecting, and rearing yielded 68 species comprising 14 genera in three tribes. Sixty-three species (92% of Wisconsin fauna) represent new state species records, not previously recorded from the state in the literature. Plant-associations and state- specific temporal and spatial distribution data for larvae and adults are noted as available. Distributional records suggest 16 additional species and one additional genus are likely to occur in Wisconsin.

  • A Faunal Survey of the Elateroidea of Montana by Catherine Elaine
    A faunal survey of the elateroidea of Montana by Catherine Elaine Seibert A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology Montana State University © Copyright by Catherine Elaine Seibert (1993) Abstract: The beetle family Elateridae is a large and taxonomically difficult group of insects that includes many economically important species of cultivated crops. Elaterid larvae, or wireworms, have a history of damaging small grains in Montana. Although chemical seed treatments have controlled wireworm damage since the early 1950's, it is- highly probable that their availability will become limited, if not completely unavailable, in the near future. In that event, information about Montana's elaterid fauna, particularity which species are present and where, will be necessary for renewed research efforts directed at wireworm management. A faunal survey of the superfamily Elateroidea, including the Elateridae and three closely related families, was undertaken to determine the species composition and distribution in Montana. Because elateroid larvae are difficult to collect and identify, the survey concentrated exclusively on adult beetles. This effort involved both the collection of Montana elateroids from the field and extensive borrowing of the same from museum sources. Results from the survey identified one artematopid, 152 elaterid, six throscid, and seven eucnemid species from Montana. County distributions for each species were mapped. In addition, dichotomous keys, and taxonomic and biological information, were compiled for various taxa. Species of potential economic importance were also noted, along with their host plants. Although the knowledge of the superfamily' has been improved significantly, it is not complete.

  • Throscidae (Coleoptera) Relationships, with Descriptions of New Fossil Genera and Species
    Zootaxa 4576 (3): 521–543 ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) https://www.mapress.com/j/zt/ Article ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2019 Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4576.3.6 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:56BC8573-D4A1-4B18-9BF6-7AB5F7984BFD Throscidae (Coleoptera) relationships, with descriptions of new fossil genera and species JYRKI MUONA Finnish Museum of Natural History, Zoology unit, entomology team, 00014 University of Helsinki, Finland E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Two new Throscidae genera from Baltic amber are described: Tyrannosthroscus n..gen. (type species Tyrannothroscus rex n.sp.) and Pseudothroscus n. gen. (type species Pseudothroscus balticus n. sp.). Four species are described from Baltic amber: Tyrannothroscus rex n. sp., Pseudothroscus balticus n. sp., Potergus superbus n. sp. and Trixagus parvulus n. sp. Pactopus burmensis n. sp. is described from Burmese amber. A phylogenetic analysis of the known throscid genera is performed. Aulonothroscus Horn and Trixagus Kugelann are shown to be sister-groups, the sister-group of this clade is the genus Pactopus Horn and the sister group of these three genera is the genus Potergus Bonvouloir. The oldest previ- ously known throscids were species belonging to the genera Rhomboaspis Kirejtshuk & Kovalev and Potergosoma Kire- jtshuk & Kovalev, both from Lebanese Amber, 125–135 Mya. The present analysis shows that the extinct Baltic amber genera Jaira Muona and Pseudothroscus belong to clades at least as old as the Lebanese fossils. The Burmese amber fossil Pactopus burmensis, 99 Mya, is considerably older than any of the previously known species belonging to the four extant genera: Pactopus, Potergus, Aulonothroscus or Trixagus.

Marché: New Records of Coleoptera from Wisconsin 6 THE GREAT LAKES ENTOMOLOGIST Vol. 50, Nos. 1–2 New Records of Coleoptera from Wisconsin Jordan D. Marché II 5415 Lost Woods Court, Oregon, WI 53575 Abstract Specimens of eleven different species of beetles (one of which is identified only to genus) have been collected from and are herein reported as new to Wisconsin. These spe- cies collectively occur within seven different families: Leiodidae, Latridiidae, Scirtidae, Throscidae, Corylophidae, Staphylinidae, and Dermestidae. A majority of the specimens were collected at the author’s residence, either in pan traps or at UV lights; the others were taken at two nearby (township) parks. Although Wisconsin’s coleopteran four antennomeres. Antennal grooves may be fauna is large and diverse, new findings con- found beside the eyes (Peck 2001).
