Wuppertal 53 158- 205 Wuppertal, 15.12.2000 Das Käfervorkommen im Burgholz - Untersuchungsaspekte von 1952 bis 1996 Wolfgang Kolbe Mit 1 Tabelle Abstract Since the beginning of the second part of the 20'h century systematic collections ofbeetles were made to investigate the forest populations of the Burgholz State Forest in Wuppertal and Solingen (Northrhine­ Westphalia, Germany). H.-U. TRIELE was the first, who studied comparatively the composition of animal communities - among other arthropods also the beetles- of 9 testareas in the Burgholz State Forest (1952/53). A new phase in exploration of Coleoptera starts 1969. Over a period of 25 years investigations were made to explore the Coleoptera. One aspect was the influence of the red ants (Formica polyctena) as enemies of carabids.- Very important apparatures to study the structure and dynamic of several populations are pitfall traps, ground photoeclectors and arboreal photoeclectors. Within the catched beetle species above all Staphylinidae, Curculionidae, Scolytidae und Rhizophagidae are in the centre of interest. Important results yield also the investigation in different types offorests (exotic and indigenous wood­ land trees ), Anfang der zweiten Hälfte des vergangeneu Jahrhunderts begannen die gezielten Aufsammlungen von Käfern in den Wäldern des Staatsforstes Burgholz in Wupper­ tal und Solingen. Es war Hans-Ulrich TRIELE, der 1952 und 1953 die Aufnahme von Tierbeständen zur Erfassung der Tiergesellschaften in der Bodenstreu verschie­ dener Waldtypen des Niederbergischen Landes durchführte. Neun seiner insgesamt 27 Probeflächen befanden sich im Burgholz; dabei handelte es sich um Buchen­ Traubeneichen-Wälder, Fichten- und Lärchenaufforstungen.

Základní identifikační a popisné údaje Zadání: Prŧzkum vegetace, flóry a vybraných skupin bezobratlých (brouci, motýli, pavouci) na vybraných xerotermních lokalitách v okolí Vladislavi na Třebíčsku v rámci projektu Fond Vysočiny – Krajina Vysočiny 2009 (Grantový program na podporu prŧzkumu a poznávání krajiny). Katastrální území: Vladislav, Stříteţ Nadmořská výška: 380 - 450 m n.m. Rozloha: 14 ha Popis lokality: Komplex xerotermních biotopŧ bývalých pastvin v okolí městyse Vladislav tvoří několik samostatných lokalit na levém i pravém břehu řeky Jihlavy o souhrné výměře cca 14 ha. Nejčastěji jsou to poměrně příkré skalnaté stráně a převáţně jiţně orientované svahy v zaříznutém údolí řeky, včetně ústí několika drobných přítokŧ (Mlýnský p., Řezanec). Dále sem patří i některé lokality na plošině nad horní hranou říčního údolí – suchý úhor přecházející v severní a východní svah na jiţním okraji obce nedaleko výjezdu na Číměř nebo malé údolíčko se zaříznutými svahy severovýchodním směrem od centra u silnice ke Smrku. (Pozn. v podané ţádosti k projektu byl vyznačen předběţný výběr zkoumaných lokalit, jejich definitivní vymezení bylo v prŧběhu prŧzkumu upřesňováno, tak aby byly zvoleny vţdy co nejreprezentativnější plochy). Na biodiverzitě území se kromě pestré modelace terénu činností řeky (říční fenomén) podílí zejména geologické podloţí, tvořené horninami třebíčského syenitového masivu a v neposlední řadě i činnost člověka, který zkoumané biotopy vyuţíval stovky let jako celoroční pastviny svého dobytka.

  • HADULLA WAGNER 2016 Hundsbachtal
    Mitt. Arb.gem. Rhein. Koleopterologen (Bonn) 26 , 2016, 11–25 Zur Käferfauna (Coleoptera) der Blockhalden im Hundsbachtal bei Gerolstein Ergebnisse der Gemeinschaftsexkursionen der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Rheinischer Koleopterologen im April 2013 KARL HADULLA & THOMAS WAGNER Kurzfassung: Im Naturschutzgebiet Hundsbachtal südwestlich von Gerolstein in der Eifel befindet sich in einer Blockschutthalde am Rande eines Basaltschlacken- vulkans ein bekannter Standort für Glazialrelikte der Tierwelt. Am 13. April 2013 fand eine Exkursion statt, während der auch Bodenfallen tief in den Blockschutt ausgebracht und zwei Wochen später eingeholt wurden. Es konnten insgesamt 210 Käferarten nachgewiesen werden, 24 in Bodenfallen und davon acht ausschließlich mit dieser Methode. Darunter waren eine Anzahl cavernicoler Arten, dabei auch Choleva lederiana als Erstfund für das Rheinland, sowie der blockhaldenspezifische Kurzflügler Leptusa simonii . Ein Wiederfund nach 50 Jahren für die Rheinprovinz ist Orthocerus clavicornis . Auf die taxonomisch-nomenklatorischen Änderungen von Choleva lederiana , deren Berücksichtigung in der Bestimmungsliteratur und ihre aktuelle mitteleuropäische Verbreitung, wird im Besonderen eingegangen. Abstract: The Nature Reserve „Hundsbachtal“ southwest of Gerolstein, Eifel moun- tains in Western Germany, has a large scree slope along an pleistocaene volcano and is a well known area for glacial relict species. During an excursion on 13th of April 2013 pitfall traps have been set most deeply in rubble that were collected two weeks later. Altogether 210 beetle species could be found, 24 in the pitfall traps, and eight of them exclusively with this method. Beyond the numerous cavernicolous beetles, many Choleva lederiana could be found for the first time in the Rhineland, further- more the scree slope typic staphylinid Leptusa simonii . As a recapture after fifty years in the Rhineland, Orthocerus clavicornis was found on gravel ground covered with lichens close to the mouth of the Hundsbach creek.

A key to the genera of Hoplapoderini and field observations on the host plant and reproductive behaviour of the new species are provided. Key words: Attelabidae, Apoderinae, Hoplapoderini, Madagascar, new genus, new species, Grewia Introduction In May 2002, among specimens of Attelabidae collected in Madagascar by David Hauck some months earlier, I received two males belonging to the apoderine tribe Hoplapoderini that could not be assigned to any known genus. A study of the rich collection of Madagascan attelabids at the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris, a few months later confirmed this diagnosis. During a month-long collecting expedition in Madagascar in December 2003 and January 2004, I collected the new taxon again, at a different locality, and could carry out some observations on its behaviour. Systematics Tribe Hoplapoderini Voss, 1926 Voss (1926) defined his tribe Hoplapoderini largely on the basis of features of the head and elytra. The new Madagascan genus fits into this tribe due to its tapered head, with maximum width near the basis, and its tuberculate elytra. Voss also provided a key to the Accepted by Q. Wang: 7 Oct. 2005; published: 2 Dec. 2005 37 ZOOTAXA genera of the tribe, but this is largely inadequate because of its heavy reliance on the 1089 presence and shape of what he called “abdominal lobes” (“Abdominallappen”).

Many Flea Beetles are among the most affective jumpers in the animal kingdom, sometimes better than their namesakes the true Fleas (Siphonaptera). However, despite some intensive study of the anatomy and function of the metafemoral spring (Barth, 1954; Ker, 1977) the true function of this jumping mechanism remains a mystery. It probably is some sort of voluntary Catch, in- volving build-up of tension from the large muscles that insert on the metafemoral spring (Fig. 1), and theo a quick release of this energy. Ofcourse some Flea Beetles jump better than others, but basically all have this internal metafemoral spring floating by attachment from large muscles in the relatively enlarged bind femoral capsule (see Fig. 1 ). In fact Flea Beetles can usually be easily separated from other beetles, including chrysomelid subfa- milies, by their greatly swollen bind femora. There are a few genera of Alticinae that have a metafemoral spring and yet do not jump. Actually there are a few genera that are considered to be Alticinae that lack the metafemo- ral spring, e. g. Orthaltica (Scherer, 1974, 1981b - as discussed in this Symposium). Also the tribe Decarthrocerini contains three genera from Africa that Wilcox (1965) con- sidered as Galerucinae, but now thinks to be intermediate between Galerucinae and Alti- cinae; at least one of these genera does have a metafemoral spring (Wilcox, personal communication, and Fürth, unpublished data).

In Schleswig-Holstein besiedeln sie mit Ausnahme des offenen Meeres sämtliche Lebensraumtypen. Aufgrund ihrer oftmals erstaunlichen Biotop- und Habitatbindungen sind die Käfer für die Bio- indikation, d. h. für die Bewertung von Lebensräumen und deren Einzelstrukturen, besonders geeignet. Vielfach aber sind die Lebensraumansprüche im einzelnen noch uner- forscht. Daraus erwächst umso stärker die Verpflichtung, die landschaftliche Strukturvielfalt zu erkennen, zu bewah- ren und wiederherzustellen.
