CURRENT AND SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHIES ON BENTHIC BIOLOGY 2007 Published September, 2008 North American Benthological Society 2 FOREWORD “Current and Selected Bibliographies on Benthic Biology” is published annually for the members of the North American Benthological Society, and summarizes titles of articles published during the previous year. Pertinent titles prior to that year are also included if they have not been cited in previous reviews. I wish to thank each of the members of the NABS Literature Review Committee for providing bibliographic information for the 2007 NABS BIBLIOGRAPHY. I would also like to thank Elizabeth Wohlgemuth, INHS Librarian, and library assistant Susan Braxton, for their assistance in putting the 2007 bibliography together.

Within genera, species differences in egg morphology are small and not always useful for species recognition, however eggs from one population of Calineuria are significantly different from those found in other populations and this population is given informal recognition as a possible new species.

  • Chironominae 8.1

    Chironominae 8.1

    CHIRONOMINAE 8.1 SUBFAMILY CHIRONOMINAE 8 DIAGNOSIS: Antennae 4-8 segmented, rarely reduced. Labrum with S I simple, palmate or plumose; S II simple, apically fringed or plumose; S III simple; S IV normal or sometimes on pedicel. Labral lamellae usually well developed, but reduced or absent in some taxa. Mentum usually with 8-16 well sclerotized teeth; sometimes central teeth or entire mentum pale or poorly sclerotized; rarely teeth fewer than 8 or modified as seta-like projections. Ventromental plates well developed and usually striate, but striae reduced or vestigial in some taxa; beard absent. Prementum without dense brushes of setae. Body usually with anterior and posterior parapods and procerci well developed; setal fringe not present, but sometimes with bifurcate pectinate setae. Penultimate segment sometimes with 1-2 pairs of ventral tubules; antepenultimate segment sometimes with lateral tubules. Anal tubules usually present, reduced in brackish water and marine taxa. NOTESTES: Usually the most abundant subfamily (in terms of individuals and taxa) found on the Coastal Plain of the Southeast. Found in fresh, brackish and salt water (at least one truly marine genus). Most larvae build silken tubes in or on substrate; some mine in plants, dead wood or sediments; some are free- living; some build transportable cases. Many larvae feed by spinning silk catch-nets, allowing them to fill with detritus, etc., and then ingesting the net; some taxa are grazers; some are predacious. Larvae of several taxa (especially Chironomus) have haemoglobin that gives them a red color and the ability to live in low oxygen conditions. With only one exception (Skutzia), at the generic level the larvae of all described (as adults) southeastern Chironominae are known.

Biodiversity Data Journal 3: e4300. doi: 10.3897/BDJ.3.e4300 Abstract The National Wildlife Refuge system is a vital resource for the protection and conservation of biodiversity and biological integrity in the United States. Surveys were conducted to determine the spatial and temporal patterns of fish, macroinvertebrate, and crayfish populations in two watersheds that encompass three refuges in southern Indiana. The Patoka River National Wildlife Refuge had the highest number of aquatic species with 355 macroinvertebrate taxa, six crayfish species, and 82 fish species, while the Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge had 163 macroinvertebrate taxa, seven crayfish species, and 37 fish species. The Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge had the lowest diversity of macroinvertebrates with 96 taxa and six crayfish species, while possessing the second highest fish species richness with 51 species.

    Published December 27, 2018 Klapalekiana, 54: 303–323, 2018 ISSN 1210-6100 Vzpomínka na Tomáše Soldána (9. listopadu 1951 – 13. srpna 2018) In memory of Tomáš Soldán (9 November 1951 – 13 August 2018) V pondělí 13. srpna 2018 odešla výrazná osobnost české entomologie, profesor Tomáš Soldán. Zemřel po krátké nemoci ve věku nedožitých 67 let. Tomáše Soldána zajímala zoologie, respekti- ve entomologie, již od dětství. Po absolvování Gymnázia Botičská směřovaly jeho kroky na Přírodovědeckou fakultu Univerzity Kar- lovy. V té době zde působili vynikající učitelé a entomologové, jako Karel Hůrka, Milan Chvála nebo Pavel Štys. Možná právě jejich přístup k vedení studentů a skvělé přednášky Pavla Štyse o morfologii hmyzu ovlivnily i bu- doucí směřování Tomáše Soldána. Po ukončení studia a absolvování povinné vojenské služby nastoupil Tomáš v létě 1975 na Oddělení morfologie hmyzu Entomolo- gického ústavu ČSAV, který v té době sídlil ve Viničné ulici v Praze. O čtyři roky později se přestěhoval i s rodinou do Českých Budě- Obr. 1.

    ISSN 0966 2235 LATISSIMUS NEWSLETTER OF THE BALFOUR-BROWNE CLUB Number Forty Five February 2020 Liopterus haemorrhoidalis (Fab.) found in a heathland pool in Dorset, England by Peter Sutton. ADDRESSES The addresses of authors of articles and reviewed works are mainly given at the end of this issue of Latissimus. The address for other correspondence is: Professor G N Foster, 3 Eglinton Terrace, Ayr KA7 1JJ, Scotland, UK – [email protected] 1 LATISSIMUS 45 February 2020 TOWARDS A PHOTOGUIDE FOR THE LARGER BRITISH WATER BEETLES Peter Sutton For some time now, I have been working on a sequel to The Larger Water Beetles of the British Isles (Sutton 2008) in a bid to photograph all of the large and spectacular aquatic Coleoptera of Britain. The trials and tribulations of the search for these fascinating insects are described in a recent article in British Wildlife (Sutton 2017). This article also reveals that some of the medium-sized species of interest, such as those of the genus Rhantus have been included, as have species from other groups, including the raft spider, Dolomedes plantarius (Clerck) and a rare wasp, Chalcis sispes (L.), parasitic on soldierflies (Stratiomyidae), which collectively highlight the conservation importance of some of the very special habitats in which they may be found. Figure 1 Rhantus frontalis (Marsham), brackish pool, Canvey Island, South Essex February 2020 LATISSIMUS 45 2 The prospective book, therefore, covers a good number of medium-sized water beetles (7- 13 mm), from the Piles Beetle Liopterus haemorrhoidalis (Fab.) (6.3-7.9 mm) to the comparatively large Ilybius ater (12.5 -14.5 mm), known by some in Britain as the Mud Dweller.
