Acta Biologica Sibirica 6: 407–412. https://doi.org/10.3897/ abs.6.e54135 Abstract The ant-loving cricket Myrmecophilus crenatus Gorochov, 1986 was found in the Turkestan oblast of southern Kazakhstan. This is the first species record for this area. Thus, the current fauna of ant-loving crickets in Kazakhstan includes three species – Myrmecophilus crenatus, M. acervorum (Panzer, 1799) and Bothriophylax semenovi (Miram, 1930). Keywords New record, Myrmecophilus crenatus, crickets, ant guest, Kazakhstan Introduction Ant-loving crickets (Myrmecophilidae Saussure, 1874) are the obligate inquilines within ant and termites nests or burrows of various rodent and other vertebrate species. The crickets are very small, wingless and flattened, yellow, brown or nearly black in color. Ant-loving crickets do not produce sound and lack both wings and tympanal organs on the front tibia.

ZooKeys 589: 97–106. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.589.7739 Abstract Myrmecophilus americanus and M. albicinctus are typical myrmecophilous insects living inside ant nests. These species are ecologically important due to the obligate association with tramp ant species, includ- ing harmful invasive ant species. However, the taxonomy of these “white-banded ant crickets” is quite confused owing to a scarcity of useful external morphological characteristics. Recently, M. albicinctus was synonymized with M. americanus regardless of the apparent host use difference. To clarify taxonomical relationship between M. albicinctus and M. albicinctus, we reexamined morphological characteristics of both species mainly in the viewpoint of anatomy. Observation of genitalia parts, together with a few external body parts, revealed that M. albicinctus showed different tendency from them of M. americanus. Therefore, we recover M. albicinctus as a distinct species on the basis of the morphology.

  • Bumblebees' Bombus Impatiens
    Bumblebees’ Bombus impatiens (Cresson) Learning: An Ecological Context by Hamida B. Mirwan A Thesis Presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in School of Environmental Biology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Hamida B. Mirwan, August, 2014 ABSTRACT BUMBLEBEES’ BOMBUS IMPATIENS (CRESSON) LEARNING: AN ECOLOGICAL CONTEXT Hamida B. Mirwan Co-Advisors: University of Guelph, 2014 Professors Peter G. Kevan & Jonathan Newman The capacities of the bumblebee, Bombus impatiens (Cresson), for learning and cognition were investigated by conditioning with increasingly complex series of single or multiple tasks to obtain the reinforcer (50% sucrose solution). Through operant conditioning, bumblebees could displace variously sized combinations of caps, rotate discs through various arcs (to 180°), and associate rotation direction with colour (white vs. yellow). They overcame various tasks through experience, presumably by shaping and scaffold learning. They showed incremental learning, if they had progressed through a series of easier tasks, single caps with increasing displacement complexity (to left, right, or up) or of balls with increasing masses, but could not complete the most difficult task de novo. They learned to discriminate the number of objects in artificial flower patches with one to three nectary flowers presented simultaneously in three compartments, and include chain responses with three other tasks: sliding doors, lifting caps, and rotating discs presented in fixed order. Pattern recognition and counting are parts of the foraging strategies of bumblebees. Multiple turn mazes, with several dead ends and minimal visual cues, were used to test the abilities of bumblebees to navigate by walking and remember routes after several days.

Beitr. 39/1 111-116 23.7.2007 Consideraciones taxonómicas sobre Lithurgus sublaevis PÉREZ 1897 y Lithurgus chrysurus FONSCOLOMBE 1834 (Hymenoptera, Apoidea, Megachilidae)1 F.J. ORTIZ-SÁNCHEZ, C. ORNOSA & F. TORRES Abstract: Taxonomic considerations on Lithurgus sublaevis PÉREZ 1897 and Lithurgus chrysurus FONSCOLOMBE 1834 (Hymenoptera, Apoidea, Megachilidae). We have studied the lectotype of Lithurgus sublaevis and it has been compared with long series of Lithurgus chrysurus from six Spanish provinces. The synonymy between the two species is confirmed. Key words: Lithurgus sublaevis, Lithurgus chrysurus, synonymy, Hymenoptera, Megachilidae, Spain. R e s u m e n : Tras el estudio del lectotipo de Lithurgus sublaevis y su comparación con largas series de individuos de Lithurgus chrysurus, se confirma la sinonimia entre ambas especies. Palabras clave: Lithurgus sublaevis, Lithurgus chrysurus, sinonimia, Hymenoptera, Megachilidae, España. Introducción Lithurgus sublaevis se describió a partir de un único ejemplar, un macho de "Cataluña" (PÉREZ 1897). Después de su descripción, diversos autores reiteraron la cita, que CEBALLOS recogió en su catálogo de 1956. Más tarde, VAN DER ZANDEN (1986) citó material de la especie procedente de las provincias de Huesca y Valladolid y, aunque aseguraba que no había encontrado el tipo, planteaba dudas sobre si se trataba de "una especie diferenciada o, más probablemente, una forma anómala de Lithurgus chrysurus". El propio VAN DER ZANDEN, en otro momento, pudo estudiar material recolectado en el sur de España por uno de los autores de este trabajo; sólo los machos fueron identificados por él como Lithurgus sublaevis, mientras que las hembras, de la misma localidad, fueron etiquetadas como Lithurgus chrysurus.

EXTENDS TO THE INAUDIBLE RANGE Abstract - Cesare Brizio, Guido Pagliano & Filippo Maria Buzzetti - Th e burrowing buzz of Sphex sp. extends to the inaudible range. In recent years, several species of Orthopterans were fi eld-recorded by authors 1 and 3 thanks to an innovative, low cost USB microphone with a sampling frequency of 250 kHz. In August 2019, during an acoustic exploration for Orthopterans, author 1 intercepted sounds from a burrow in the soil, from which a Sphecid wasp – here tentatively determined as Sphex funerarius (Gussakovskij, 1934) – emerged and was photographed in suboptimal conditions during the recording session. While the quality of the digital audio tracks was satisfactory, the collection of the buzzing specimen proved unfeasible. We provide a concise review of scientifi c literature about burrowing behaviour in Sphecidae, in particular covering those sources that describe the buzzing sound associated with the burrow excavation, and propose a comprehensive review of the audio samples obtained, including envelopes, spectrograms and frequency analyses, and revealing the previously unreported extension well into the ultrasonic domain, up to 70 kHz and above, of the buzzing sound emitted by burrowing Sphecoidea.

  • Checklist of the Spheciform Wasps (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae & Sphecidae) of British Columbia
    Checklist of the Spheciform Wasps (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae & Sphecidae) of British Columbia Chris Ratzlaff Spencer Entomological Collection, Beaty Biodiversity Museum, UBC, Vancouver, BC This checklist is a modified version of: Ratzlaff, C.R. 2015. Checklist of the spheciform wasps (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae & Sphecidae) of British Columbia. Journal of the Entomological Society of British Columbia 112:19-46 (available at http://journal.entsocbc.ca/index.php/journal/article/view/894/951). Photographs for almost all species are online in the Spencer Entomological Collection gallery (http://www.biodiversity.ubc.ca/entomology/). There are nine subfamilies of spheciform wasps in recorded from British Columbia, represented by 64 genera and 280 species. The majority of these are Crabronidae, with 241 species in 55 genera and five subfamilies. Sphecidae is represented by four subfamilies, with 39 species in nine genera. The following descriptions are general summaries for each of the subfamilies and include nesting habits and provisioning information. The Subfamilies of Crabronidae Astatinae !Three genera and 16 species of astatine wasps are found in British Columbia. All species of Astata, Diploplectron, and Dryudella are groundnesting and provision their nests with heteropterans (Bohart and Menke 1976). Males of Astata and Dryudella possess holoptic eyes and are often seen perching on sticks or rocks. Bembicinae Nineteen genera and 47 species of bembicine wasps are found in British Columbia. All species are groundnesting and most prefer habitats with sand or sandy soil, hence the common name of “sand wasps”. Four genera, Bembix, Microbembex, Steniolia and Stictiella, have been recorded nesting in aggregations (Bohart and Horning, Jr. 1971; Bohart and Gillaspy 1985).

However, knowledge about the impact of farming on the habitat quality there is rather poor. The influence of various management types (permanent sheep pen, irregular grazing, mowing) on Orthoptera diversity and species determining assemblages of these habitats were analysed on 72 plots in Poľana Mts Biosphere Reserve. Altogether, 36 Orthoptera species (15 Ensifera, 21 Caelifera) were found, whereas the highest number of species was found on plots with irregular grazing (28 species), followed by plots with mown grass (17) and permanent sheep pens (14). All four measures of the assemblages’ diversity confirmed significant differences. Using Discriminant Function Analysis, correct classification rate of Orthoptera assemblages was unambiguous according to the type of management. Each form of the management harboured several characteristic species. Thus implications regarding the biodiversity conservation and grassland management were given. Key words: bush-crickets; grasshoppers; pasture; ecology; nature conservation Introduction or the influence of plant succession in meadows without any management (Marini et al. 2009). Higher species Various systems used to manage grasslands have a diversity was found in grazed compared to mowed significant influence on plant and animal communi- meadows in alpine habitats (Wettstein & Schmid 1999; ties, their species richness and abundance (Kampmann Kampmann et al.
