    Odonatologica II (3): 239-243 September /, 1982 Notes on the effect of meteorologicalparameters on flightactivity and reproductive behaviour of Coenagrionpuella (L.) (Zygoptera: Coenagrionidae) J. Waringer Wiesfeldgasse 6, A-3130 Herzogenburg, Austria Received January 23, 1981 / Accepted March 25, 1982 The influence of temperature, light intensity, cloudiness and wind intensity on daily activity of C. puella at a pond in Lower Austria is discussed. For initiating flightactivity, a minimum light intensity of60 x lOMux is needed. No flight activity was observed on cloudy days with light intensityvalues lying below the threshold 3 of 60 x 10 lux or wind intensity > 8 m s'1 . INTRODUCTION It is known that flight intensity and reproduction in Odonata are influenced such largely by climatological factors, as temperature, light- and wind intensity. CORBET (1962) has shown that unfavourabletemperatures can be avoided by migration, by flight to habitats with an equable micro- climate or by a resting condition. Temperature changes on a daily basis can be regulated physiologically, e.g. by wing vibrations for raising the body choice of site temperature or behaviourally by an appropriate resting (MAY, 1977; CORBET, 1962). Another possibility is taken by crepuscular species, especially tropical Anisoptera. The flight activity of Coenagrion puella is fully restricted to daytime. role in Although temperature plays a major egg development and larval growth of this species (Waringer, unpublished) and therefore in timing of the seasonal flight period, it has been found that daily flight activity is also affected wind- in by and light intensity a considerable way. The aim ofthe obtain information present study was to some quantitative the influence of of on meteorological parameters on daily flight activity Coenagrion puella.

  • Description of the Final Stadium Larva (Odonata: Libellulidae)
    ------- Received 22 May 2003; revised and accepted 06 October 2003------- Nesciothemis farinosa: description of the final stadium larva (Odonata: Libellulidae) Frank Suhling', Carsten Schutte' & Ole Muller' ' lnstitut fUr Geookologie, Technische Universitat Braunschweig, Langer Kamp 19c, D-381 02 Braunschweig, Germany. <e-mail [email protected]> ' Birkenweg 6d, D-15306 Libbenichen, Germany. Key words: Odonata, dragonfly, Nesciothemis farinosa, larval description, notes on ecology and development. ABSTRACT A written description and illustrations of the final stadium larva of Nesciothemis farinosa are presented, based on larvae and exuviae collected in Namibia. The larvae were reared in the laboratory until emergence. Additionally, information on larval microhabitat, behaviour and development is provided. INTRODUCTION The genus Nesciothemis Longfield, 1955 is composed of five species, N. farinosa (Forster, 1898), N. fitzgeraldi Longfield, 1955, N. minor Gambles, 1966, N. nigeriensis Gambles, 1966 and N. pujoli Pinhey, 1971 (Gambles 1966; Pinhey 1971; Dijkstra 2003) occurring in subsaharan continental Africa, Egypt and the southern Arabian Peninsula, with N. farinosa being the most widespread species, ranging from southern Africa to Egypt and Arabia (Dumont 1991; Schneider & Krupp 1993; Carfl & D'Andrea 1994; Samways 1999; Clausnitzer 2001). N. farinosa reported from western Africa (e.g. Ivory Coast, Tsuda 1991) are questionable, because they differ constantly from typical N. farinosa and might belong to N. pujoli (K.-D.B. Dijkstra in litt.). The larvae of all Nesciothemis species are hitherto not described. Here we describe the final stadium larva and exuvia of N. farinosa from material collected in Namibia. Additionally, information on the larval microhabitat, behaviour in the laboratory and develop­ ment is provided.

Bechtold* Abstract Lectotypes for twelve of Mayr's cynipid gall wasp species (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae: Cynipinae) are desi- gnated. From twenty cynipid gall wasp species, described by Mayr, seven have already been synonymized, and thirteen species are still valid. Andricus insana (WESTWOOD, 1837) syn.n. is a new synonym of Andricus quercustozae (Bosc, 1792). Key words: Cynipidae, gall wasps, Hymenoptera, lectotype designation, Gustav Mayr, new synonymy, taxonomy. Zusammenfassung Lectotypen für zwölf der von Mayr beschriebenen Gallwespenarten (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae: Cynipinae) werden designiert. Mayr hat zwanzig Gallwespenarten beschrieben, davon sind sieben bereits synonymi- siert worden, dreizehn Arten sind noch gültig. Andricus insana (WESTWOOD, 1837) syn.n. ist ein neues Synonym von Andricus quercustozae (Bosc, 1792). Introduction Gustav Mayr, a famous Austrian entomologist, described eleven genera of gall inducing Cynipidae and twenty species from twelve genera (Hymenoptera: Cynipoidea). Seven of them have already been synonymized, while thirteen species are still valid. However, he never designated types for his newly described species. All the specimens are syn- or cotypes and usually these specimens were marked with "Type" or even not so.

  • Brazil's Eastern Amazonia
    The loud and impressive White Bellbird, one of the many highlights on the Brazil’s Eastern Amazonia 2017 tour (Eduardo Patrial) BRAZIL’S EASTERN AMAZONIA 8/16 – 26 AUGUST 2017 LEADER: EDUARDO PATRIAL This second edition of Brazil’s Eastern Amazonia was absolutely a phenomenal trip with over five hundred species recorded (514). Some adjustments happily facilitated the logistics (internal flights) a bit and we also could explore some areas around Belem this time, providing some extra good birds to our list. Our time at Amazonia National Park was good and we managed to get most of the important targets, despite the quite low bird activity noticed along the trails when we were there. Carajas National Forest on the other hand was very busy and produced an overwhelming cast of fine birds (and a Giant Armadillo!). Caxias in the end came again as good as it gets, and this time with the novelty of visiting a new site, Campo Maior, a place that reminds the lowlands from Pantanal. On this amazing tour we had the chance to enjoy the special avifauna from two important interfluvium in the Brazilian Amazon, the Madeira – Tapajos and Xingu – Tocantins; and also the specialties from a poorly covered corner in the Northeast region at Maranhão and Piauí states. Check out below the highlights from this successful adventure: Horned Screamer, Masked Duck, Chestnut- headed and Buff-browed Chachalacas, White-crested Guan, Bare-faced Curassow, King Vulture, Black-and- white and Ornate Hawk-Eagles, White and White-browed Hawks, Rufous-sided and Russet-crowned Crakes, Dark-winged Trumpeter (ssp.

  • Folk Taxonomy, Nomenclature, Medicinal and Other Uses, Folklore, and Nature Conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3
    Ulicsni et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2016) 12:47 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0118-7 RESEARCH Open Access Folk knowledge of invertebrates in Central Europe - folk taxonomy, nomenclature, medicinal and other uses, folklore, and nature conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3 Abstract Background: There is scarce information about European folk knowledge of wild invertebrate fauna. We have documented such folk knowledge in three regions, in Romania, Slovakia and Croatia. We provide a list of folk taxa, and discuss folk biological classification and nomenclature, salient features, uses, related proverbs and sayings, and conservation. Methods: We collected data among Hungarian-speaking people practising small-scale, traditional agriculture. We studied “all” invertebrate species (species groups) potentially occurring in the vicinity of the settlements. We used photos, held semi-structured interviews, and conducted picture sorting. Results: We documented 208 invertebrate folk taxa. Many species were known which have, to our knowledge, no economic significance. 36 % of the species were known to at least half of the informants. Knowledge reliability was high, although informants were sometimes prone to exaggeration. 93 % of folk taxa had their own individual names, and 90 % of the taxa were embedded in the folk taxonomy. Twenty four species were of direct use to humans (4 medicinal, 5 consumed, 11 as bait, 2 as playthings). Completely new was the discovery that the honey stomachs of black-coloured carpenter bees (Xylocopa violacea, X. valga)were consumed. 30 taxa were associated with a proverb or used for weather forecasting, or predicting harvests. Conscious ideas about conserving invertebrates only occurred with a few taxa, but informants would generally refrain from harming firebugs (Pyrrhocoris apterus), field crickets (Gryllus campestris) and most butterflies.

  • Final Report Ornate Rainbowfish, Rhadinocentrus Ornatus, Project
    Final Report Ornate Rainbowfish, Rhadinocentrus ornatus, project. (Save the Sunfish, Grant ID: 19393) by Simon Baltais Wildlife Preservation Society of QLD Bayside Branch (QLD) inc. (Version: Saturday, 25 June 2011) 1 1. Introduction 1.1 Background The Rhadinocentrus ornatus (Ornate Sunfish, soft spined sunfish, or Ornate Rainbowfish) is a freshwater rainbowfish from the Family Melanotaeniidae. This Melanotaeniidae family of fish is only found in Australia and New Guinea. It’s a small, mainly insectivorous species, the largest individuals reaching a maximum length of approximately 80mm (Warburton and Chapman, 2007). The Rhadinocentrus ornatus (R. ornatus) is said to be a small, obligate freshwater fish species restricted to the coastal wallum habitat of eastern Australia (Hancox et al, 2010), where waters are slow flowing and acidic, and submerged and emergent vegetation is plentiful (Warburton and Chapman, 2007). However, Wildlife Queensland has found this species utilising other habitat types, such as gallery rainforest along Tingalpa Creek West Mt Cotton, a finding supported by BCC (2010). Good populations of R.ornatus were particularly found in clear slow – medium flowing streams supporting no aquatic or emergent vegetation located within gallery rainforest. The species was particularly common in 12.3.1 Gallery rainforest (notophyll vine forest) on alluvial plains (Endangered) within a landscape comprised of 12.11.5 Open forest complex with Corymbia citriodora, Eucalyptus siderophloia, E. major on metamorphics ± interbedded volcanics

Hatching success of rainbowfish eggs following exposure to air Lois Oulton, Penelope Carbia, and Culum Brown Macquarie University KEYWORDS egg desiccation, Lake Eacham, Melanotaenia, translocation ABSTRACT Translocation of fishes within and between drainage basins is widely recognised as a threatening process to Australian native fishes. While many translocations are deliberate, for example for fisheries enhancement, it is possible that translocation can occur naturally. In the Wet Tropic region of Australia, the widespread eastern rainbowfish, Melanotaenia splendida, has begun to colonise the Atherton tablelands. This is of particular concern because the area is home to several endangered endemic species such as the Lake Eacham rainbowfish, M. eachamensis, and its allies. It is likely that some of the translocations have occurred through the use of this species as bait, but the recent invasion of Lake Eacham may have occurred naturally via the movement of eggs between nearby streams running into Lake Tinaroo.
