Inverhuron Provincial Park INVERHURON PROVINCIAL PARK One Malaise trap was deployed at Inverhuron Provincial Park in 2014 (44.29838, -81.59065, 185m ASL; Figure 1). This trap collected arthropods for twenty weeks from May 1 – September 17, 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 1671 BINs were obtained. Over half the BINs captured were flies (Diptera), followed by bees, ants and wasps (Hymenoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and beetles (Coleoptera; Figure 2). In total, 422 arthropod species were named, representing 26.9% of the BINs from the site (Appendix 1). All the BINs were assigned at least Figure 1. Malaise trap deployed at Inverhuron to family, and 58.4% were assigned to a genus Provincial Park in 2014. (Appendix 2). Specimens collected from Inverhuron represent 198 different families and 530 genera.

  • Scanning Electron Morphological Studies of Tribolium Confusum Jacquelin Du Val (Coleopteran: Tenebrionidae) Nasra M
    Zohry The Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology (2017) 78:6 The Journal of Basic DOI 10.1186/s41936-017-0008-0 and Applied Zoology RESEARCH Open Access Scanning electron morphological studies of Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val (Coleopteran: Tenebrionidae) Nasra M. H. Zohry Abstract Background: The confused flour beetle Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val (Coleopteran: Tenebrionidae) is the most destructive pest of stored products worldwide. It is the most common pest of wheat flour. Results: This study describes and illustrates the larvae, pupae, and adults of T. confusum using scanning electron microscopy. The first larval instars are 5.0–5.1 mm long and 0.5–0.6 mm wide whereas the last larval instars are 5. 75–6.9 mm long and 0.75–0.95 mm wide. Adults of T. confusum are reddish brown elongate beetles (4.0–4.5 mm in body length and 1.0–1.2 mm in width). Electron micrographs revealed the structure of the mouth parts during the larval, pupal, and adult stages as well as the structure of thoracic and abdominal appendages. Results indicated that the setiferous sex patches which were reported in males can often be used for sexing specimens. A specific feature of the first instar larvae of T. confusum is the extreme shortened antenna with a reduced number of antennomeres and the presence of well-developed and moderately long legs. Conclusion: SEM examination may help us not only discover and understand new morphological details as the pits with spine on the elytra and the spikes on the membrane wings which will facilitate the identification of this species but also clarify the functions of various body parts.

Archostemata, Cupedidae, phylogeny, NMR-imaging, skeletomuscular system, micro X-ray computertomography, head morphology Abstract. Internal and external features of the head of Ascioplaga mimeta (Coleoptera: Archostemata) were studied with micro X-ray computertomography (µCT) and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI). These methods allowed the reconstruction of the entire internal anatomy from the only available fixed specimen. The mouthparts and their associated musculature are highly derived in many aspects. Their general configuration corresponds to that of Priacma serrata (the only other archostematan studied in comparable detail). However, the mandible-maxilla system of A. mimeta is built as a complex sorting apparatus and shows a distinct specialisation for a specific, but still unknown, food source. The phylogenetic analysis resulted in the identification of a new mono- phylum comprising the genera [Distocupes + (Adinolepis +Ascioplaga)]. The members of this taxon are restricted to the Australian zoogeographic region. The most prominent synapomorphies of these three genera are their derived mouthparts.

All modern and fossil taxa of genus rank which could belong to Cupedinae are revised. The previous division of this subfamily into tribes (including Priacmini and Mesocupidini) is regarded as not advisable. An annotated list of the fossil species of the subfamily Cupedinae is compiled and revised. New keys to subfamilies of Cupedidae and to genera and subgenera of Cupedinae, and also keys for species of Cainomerga subgen.n. and Cupes found in deposits from Menat are given. As a result, several new genera and subgenera are proposed, i.e. the fossil Apriacma gen.n., from the early Cretaceous (the type species: Priacma tuberculosa Tan, Ren et Shin, 2006), Cre- tomerga gen.n., from the early Cretaceous (the type species: Priacmopsis subtilis Tan et Ren, 2006), Cupopsis gen.n.

A Preliminary, Annotated List of Beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera) from the UW-Milwaukee Field Station Daniel K. Young Department of Entomology, University of Wisconsin-Madison [email protected] Abstract: Coleoptera, the beetles, account for nearly 25% of all known animal species, and nearly 18% of all described species of life on the planet. Their species richness is equal to the number of all plant species in the world and six times the number of all vertebrate species. They are found almost everywhere, yet many minute or cryptic species go virtually un-noticed even by trained naturalists. Little wonder, then, that such a dominant group might pass through time relatively unknown to most naturalists, hobbyists, and even entomologists; even an elementary comprehension of the beetle fauna of our own region has not been attempted. A single, fragmentary and incomplete list of beetle species was published for Wisconsin in the late 1800’s; the last three words of the final entry merely say, “to be continued.” The present, preliminary, survey chronicles nothing more than a benchmark, a definitive starting point from which to build.

  • From the Middle Mesozoic of China Illuminating the Phylogeny of Ommatidae Jingjing Tan1,2, Yongjie Wang2, Dong Ren2* and Xingke Yang1*
    Tan et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2012, 12:113 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/12/113 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access New fossil species of ommatids (Coleoptera: Archostemata) from the Middle Mesozoic of China illuminating the phylogeny of Ommatidae Jingjing Tan1,2, Yongjie Wang2, Dong Ren2* and Xingke Yang1* Abstract Background: Ommatidae is arguably the “most ancestral” extant beetle family. Recent species of this group are only found in South America and Australia, but the fossil record reveals a much broader geographical distribution in the Mesozoic. Up to now, thirteen fossil genera with more than 100 species of ommatids have been described. However, the systematic relationships of the extant and extinct Ommatidae have remained obscure. Three constraint topologies were designed based on Kirejtshuk’s hypothesis, enforced the monophyly of Tetraphalerus + Odontomma, Pareuryomma + Notocupes and both respectively. Results: In this study, four new species, Pareuryomma ancistrodonta sp. nov., Pareuryomma cardiobasis sp. nov., Omma delicata sp. nov., and Tetraphalerus decorosus sp. nov., are described. Based on well-preserved fossil specimens and previously published data the phylogenetic relationships of extant and extinct lineages of Ommatidae were analyzed for the first time cladistically. Based on the results we propose a new classification with six tribes of Ommatidae: Pronotocupedini, Notocupedini, Lithocupedini, Brochocoleini, Ommatini and Tetraphalerini. These taxa replace the traditional four subfamilies. Conclusion: There is good support for the monophyly of the ingroup. Notocupedini, as defined by Ponomarenko, are paraphyletic. Notocupoides + Eurydictyon are the sister group of the remaining fossil and extant ommatids. Together they form the clade Pronotocupedini. Notocupedini and Lithocupedini are the next two branches.

  • The Species-Level Phylogeny of Archostematan Beetles—Where Do Micromalthus Debilis and Crowsoniella Relicta Belong?
    Systematic Entomology (2009), 34, 533–558 The species-level phylogeny of archostematan beetles—where do Micromalthus debilis and Crowsoniella relicta belong? THOMAS HORNSCHEMEYER¨ Department of Morphology and Systematics, Johann-Friedrich-Blumenbach-Institute for Zoology and Anthropology, Georg-August-University Gottingen,¨ Gottingen,¨ Germany Abstract. A species-level phylogenetic analysis comprising 37 of the 45 known extant species of archostematan beetles and a total of 110 morphological characters from adults and larvae is presented. For the first time, characters of the male genitalia are included in a phylogenetic analysis of Archostemata. The dataset is analysed with parsimony as well as with Bayesian algorithms. Analyses with differently arranged datasets, with larval characters included or excluded, and including or excluding Micromalthus debilis and Crowsoniella relicta are conducted. The resulting hypothesis of the species-level phylogeny of Archostemata confirms Cupedidae and Ommatidae as monophyletic taxa. Within Cupedidae, the South American Paracupes and the North American Priacma together are the sister group to all remaining Cupedidae. Among the latter, the identification of a clade comprising Rhipsideigma, Cupes capitatus and Tenomerga leucophaea renders Tenomerga polyphyletic. Ascioplaga scalena comb. nov. is transferred from Adinolepis. Characters of the male genitalia support phylogenetic affinities of Micromalthus debilis with Ommatidae and of Crowsoniella relicta with Cupedidae. Introduction and 36 species; and the monotypic families Crowsoniellidae, Micromalthidae and possibly Jurodidae (Lawrence & Newton, Archostemata is one of four suborders of beetles (Coleoptera) 1995; Kirejtshuk, 1999; Hornschemeyer,¨ 2005).

Published online at www.senckenberg.de/arthropod-systematics on 07.viii.2015. Abstract External and internal structures of 1st instar larvae of Tenomerga mucida are described and illustrated in detail. The larvae display previous­ ly identified archostematan autapomorphies such as the posterodorsal and posteroventral cephalic emarginations, the median endocarina, a distinctly reduced epicranial suture, the lateral cardinal sclerite, the loss of M. craniocardinalis, a sclerotized prominent ligula, a distinctly reduced tentorium, the transverse muscle of the posterior head capsule, tergal and sternal ampullae, and the strongly muscularized loop of the hind gut. Unusual plesiomorphies are the presence of a well-developed M. frontolabralis (M8) and a tentoriomandibular muscle. The presence of two extrinsic premental muscles and a subdivided postlabium are also plesiomorphic features. A derived character state described for the first time in an archostematan larva is the presence of glands in the anterior and posterior abdomen. The postcephalic musculature is similar to the condition found in Micromalthus and Rhipsideigma. The neck musculature is strongly developed, and also the dorsal and ventral longitudinal muscles, probably in correlation with wood-boring habits.

Distocupes, Tenomerga, Rhipsideigma, Priacma, Omma, Micromalthus, Cupedidae, Micromalthidae, Ommatidae, Archostemata, Coleoptera, larvae, morphology, chaetotaxy, phylogeny Abstract. This paper presents a synthesis of morphological information on larvae of the beetle suborder Archostemata. Larvae of the following families and species were studied: Ommatidae: Omma sp.; Micromalthidae: Micromalthus debilis LeConte, 1878; Cupedi- dae: Priacma serrata LeConte, 1861, Distocupes varians (Lea, 1902), Rhipsideigma raffrayi (Fairmaire, 1884), Tenomerga cinerea (Say, 1831) and Tenomerga mucida (Chevrolat, 1829). Morphological characters of the suborder and three families are described. Monophyly of the suborder is strongly supported by more than 10 larval autapomorphies. A close relationship between Micro- malthidae and Cupedidae is confirmed. New larval characters are introduced, including chaetotaxy of first instar larvae of Micromal- thus LeConte, 1878, Priacma LeConte, 1874 and Distocupes Neboiss, 1984. An identification key to families and subfamilies of Archostematan larvae is provided, along with a checklist of extant Archostemata taxa. The work is illustrated with 120 morpho- logical drawings. INTRODUCTION can be found in several publications (Barber, 1913a, b; Böving, 1929; Böving & Craighead, 1931; Pringle, 1938; This is an overview of the external larval morphology Scott, 1936, 1938, 1941; Peterson, 1960; Costa et al., of members of the coleopteran suborder Archostemata.

Published online at www.senckenberg.de/arthropod-systematics on 07.viii.2015. Abstract External and internal structures of 1st instar larvae of Tenomerga mucida are described and illustrated in detail. The larvae display previous­ ly identified archostematan autapomorphies such as the posterodorsal and posteroventral cephalic emarginations, the median endocarina, a distinctly reduced epicranial suture, the lateral cardinal sclerite, the loss of M. craniocardinalis, a sclerotized prominent ligula, a distinctly reduced tentorium, the transverse muscle of the posterior head capsule, tergal and sternal ampullae, and the strongly muscularized loop of the hind gut. Unusual plesiomorphies are the presence of a well-developed M. frontolabralis (M8) and a tentoriomandibular muscle.

  • 2017 Annual Summit
    2017 Annual Summit Gainesville, Florida November 2-3, 2017 Welcome Information General Dear colleagues, Welcome to the 7th annual iDigBio-hosted summit for ADBC scientists and students! Again this year, the summit is a large event with an anticipated 130 participants, including those from 20 TCNs, other colleagues working with biodiversity collections data, guests from the NSF, and iDigBio. As in past years, we have a packed agenda of presentations and breakout groups, but we also have plenty of opportunities for networking and discussion. The latter include daily morning and afternoon breaks, lunches, an evening reception at the Florida Museum, and an open meeting space that is available any time of day for small groups to gather and discuss topics of specific interest to them. The national effort to digitize information in biocollections has been successfully catalyzed by funding from NSF and activities of TCNs and iDigBio. As a community, we have defined digitization priorities, integrated best practices into workflows, provided cyberinfrastructure resources including a search portal, addressed major challenges via working groups, and built collaborations with data providers/users. We have improved digitization practices, increased involvement in digitization and training, and adopted informatics tools that improve the efficiency and scalability of digitization in all types of collections. In its 7th year, iDigBio is working with staff in more than 500 collections in 336 institutions. We have communicated with our stakeholders to increase access to collections data through workshops, webinars, the iDigBio Spotlight, and social media. During its first 6 years, iDigBio sponsored attendance of 3,700 participants from 550 institutions to 118 workshops that targeted digitization-related topics.
