Notonecta glauca L. is reported from three localities in the Trondheim region. This is the northernmost records of the species in Norway.

106 Limoniidae communities in alpine and boreal zones along the Atna River, South Norway (Diptera, Nematocera)

JOHN O. SOLEM AND HANS MENDL

Solem, J. O. & Mendl, H. 1989. Limoniidae communities in alpine and boreal zones along the Atna River, South Norway (Diptera, Nematocera). Fauna norv. Ser. B 36, 107-114.

The Limoniidae fauna along the Atna River (62°N, 9°45'E and 61 °45'N, 100 45'E) is described. Five Malaise traps for collecting adults were run through the summer of 1986. Species composition differed considerably between alpine/subalpine and boreal communities. We recorded 23 species at three alpine/subalpine localities, and 42 at two boreallocalities. A total of 48 spp. was identified. At one alpine site the terrestrial Phyl/o/abis macroura was dominant, while at two subalpine sites Dicranota guerini, which has predatory aquatic larvae, was dominant. In the alpine/subalpine zone and the highest site in the boreal zone one or two species outnumbered the remaining species. This was in contrast to the lowest site where the dominance was spread over six species. Based on data from Sweden and Norway seven species, Neo/imnophi/a p/acida, Pari/isia vicina, Archi/imnophi/a unica, Me/ano/imonia morio, Limonia f/avipes, L. tripunctuta, and Meta/imnobia 4-notata, probably have an eastern distribution in Norway. Flight periods are given. John O. Solem, University of Trondheim, the Museum, N-7004 Trondheim, Norway. Hans Mendl, Johann-Schutz-Strasse 31, D-8900 Kempten/Allgau, West Germany.

117 811 Six species of Lepidoptera new to Norway

LARS OVE HANSEN

Hansen, L. 0.1989. Six species of Lepidoptera new to Norway. Fauna noTV. Ser. B 36: 119-123. The following six species of Lepidoptera are reported new to Norway: Depressaria artemisiae Nickerl, 1862; Mompha divisella Herrich-Schiiffer, 1854; Rhyacionia pi­ niana (Herrich-Schiiffer, 1851) Eupithecia expallidata Doubleday, 1856; Acronicta tridens (Denis & Schiffermiiller, 1775) and Heliothis armigera (Hiibner, 1808). Dis­ tribution, ecology and taxonomical characters are briefly outlined. It is also discussed why the earlier Norwegian records of D. artemisiae, M. divisella and A. tridens later were deleted.

Description of the immature stages of Delia fabricii Holmgren (Diptera, Anthomyiidae)

TOR JACOB JOHANSEN

Johansen, T. J. 1989. Description of the immature stages of Delia fabricii Holmgren (Diptera, Anthomyiidae). Fauna norv. Ser. B 36, 125-128. The immature stages of Deliafabricii Holmgren are described. The most distinctive characters are compared with descriptions of the corresponding characters of the closely related Delia coarctata Fallen. The larvae may be distinguished on the basis of the tubercles on the last segment. The third instar larva is the most characteristic, having a pair of black, sclerotized apical tubercles placed on a correspondingly sclero­ tized plate. The puparium carries the remains of these tubercles. The ecology of D. fabricii is briefly described. It resembles that of the univoltine, egg hibernating D. coarctata. Tor Jacob Johansen, The Norwegian State Agricultural Research Stations, Holt Rese­ arch Station, N-9000 Troms0, Norway.

INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS Delia fabricii Holmgren has a circumpolar All insect material was collected in stands of high latitude distribution (cL Hennig 1966­ P. pratensis planted for seed production at 1976, Suwa 1977). It has recently been ob­ Bardu (69°N), Northern Norway. Soil samp­ served infesting the stems of Poa pratensis L. les were taken in September, and eggs were grown for seed production in Northern Nor­ separated from the soil by washing through way (69°N). This initiated a morphological meshes (Gemmill 1927). Larvae and pupae and ecological study with results presented in were reared in the laboratory from infested a thesis (Johansen 1988).

De Meyer, M., Backeljau, T. & Janssens, L. 1989. Contribution to the pipunculid fauna of Scandinavia (Diptera, Pipunculidae). Fauna norv. Ser. B 36, 129-132.

Scandinavian Pipunculidae in the collections of the University of Bergen; Museum of Zoology, Lund; and in the private collection of T.R. Nielsen, Sandnes, have been examined. 33 species were identified of which 7 were apparently not previously recorded from Scandinavia: Nephrocerus scutellatus (Macquart, 1834), Pipuncu/us fonsecai Coe, 1966, Pipuncu/us tenuirostris Kozanek, 1981, Eudorylasjenkinsoni Coe, 1966, Eudory/as obscurus Coe, 1966, Dorylomorpha rufipes (Meigen 1824), and Tomosvaryella pa//iditarsis (CoBin, 1931). A list of the localities is presented. The genera Cha/arus Walker and Cepha/ops Fallen are not included in this article.

Greve, L. & Midtgaard, F. 1989. The genus Chyliza (Psilidae Diptera) in Norway. Fauna norv. Ser. B 36, 139-140.

Four species of the genus Chyliza (Diptera, Psilidae) were collected at the islands Ha0ya and Ost0ya in inner Oslofjord (Norway) 1984. The collection was made with two Malaise traps at Ha0ya and three Malaise traps at Ost0ya. Chyliza leptogaster (Panzer, 1798), C. nova Collin, 1944 and C. vittata Meigen, 1826 are reported from Norway for the first time. The fourth species, C. annulipes Macquart, 1835, has only been reported from Akershus province, Oslo earlier. Also included in this account is all material in Norwegian collections determined as Chyliza. Lita Greve, Zoological Museum, University of Bergen, Museplass 3, N-5007 Bergen, Norway.
