Version 16.VIII.2011 Introduction The geographic distribution of taxa is given first as presence in one or more of the following zoogeographical regions: (AF) Afrotropical, (AU) Australian, (NA) Nearctic, (NT) Neotropical, (OR) Oriental, (PC) Pacific, and (PL) Palaearctic. The following rough delimitation of regions is used: Afrotropical/ Palearctic: south border of Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Egypt plus Red Sea. - Australian/ Pacific: Pacific Ocean islands between longitude 100º and 180ºW, and latitude 30ºS to 20ºN. - Nearctic/ Neotropical: border between Mexico and United States. - Nearctic/ Palearctic: between Baffin Island and Greenland. - Oriental/ Palearctic: border between main India and Pakistan, Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Nepal, Sikkim and Darjeeling, Bhutan, Arunachal Pradesh; border between China and Burma, Laos, and Vietnam. - Oriental/ Australian: Lydekker line. The delimitation of the Palearctic Region and the subdivision of Russia follow Löbl & Smetana (2003 & 2004). Type localities are located to a specific nation when possible. The following abbreviations are used: (NP) National Park, and (US) United States of America. The old name Zaire is retained for the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the short-hand Congo is used for the Republic of the Congo. Citations of type localities use the following symbols: (>) to more restricted level, (<) to more general level, (,) within same level, (<<) to highest level, ((…)) original name, ([…]) comment, and (/) or. Citations always start at the highest geographic level. Specifications after names are given with lover-case letters, e.g. lake, mt. Multiple type localities have been cited when the type series consists of several specimens from two or more different localities. In the faunistic block doubtful records are noted by a ? before a geographic name. Erroneous records are marked with !. Type depository is given with the following letter codens that when possible follow Evenhuis & Samuelson (2006). Information given refers to current depository, which may differ from the one given in the original description. An ’?’ in this position means that the depository is unknown, and ’lost’ has been used when the collections are known to have been destroyed. Depository of syntypes may include several collections, one of which is given if reported as examined by some author, or if the entire collection of the author describing the actual species is being kept together in a single collection.

  • The Pseudolathra Species of the East Palaearctic and the Oriental Regions
    Beitr. Ent. Keltern ISSN 0005 - 805X Beitr. Ent. 62 (2012) 2 299 62 (2012) 2 S. 299 - 330 20.12.2012 The Pseudolathra species of the East Palaearctic and the Oriental regions (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Paederinae) With 70 figures and 3 maps Volker Assing Summary The available types and additional material of the species of the lathrobiine genus Pseudolathra Casey, 1905 of the East Palaearctic (including Middle Asia) and the Oriental regions are revised. In all, thirteen valid species are recognised, six of which are new to science: P. brevincisa sp. n. (Thailand), P. cordi- formis sp. n. (SE-India), P. himalayana sp. n. (Pakistan, N-India, Nepal), P. sagittata sp. n. (Thailand), P. transversicollis sp. n. (Thailand, N-India), and P. vellicans sp. n. (N-India). All the species of the study region are (re-)described or diagnosed; thirteen species are illustrated. Pseudolathra pulchella (Kraatz, 1859), previously a synonym of P. caffra (Boheman, 1848), is revalidated. Two synonymies are proposed: Pseudolathra pulchella (Kraatz, 1859) = P. caffra javana (Cameron, 1940), syn. n.; P. unicolor (Kraatz, 1859) = P. chujoi (Last, 1966), syn. n. Two species are moved from Lobrathium Mulsant & Rey, 1878 to Pseudolathra: P. nigerrima (Cameron, 1924), comb. n., and P. regularis (Sharp, 1889), comb. n. The East Palaearctic and Oriental species on the one hand and the West Palaearctic species on the other hand form separate phylogenetic lineages. The former are tentatively attributed to the subgenus Allolathra Coiffait, 1972 and the latter to the nominate subgenus. The species of the East Palaearctic and Oriental regions are assigned to three species groups.

  • Mitochondrial Genomes Resolve the Phylogeny of Adephaga
    1 Mitochondrial genomes resolve the phylogeny 2 of Adephaga (Coleoptera) and confirm tiger 3 beetles (Cicindelidae) as an independent family 4 Alejandro López-López1,2,3 and Alfried P. Vogler1,2 5 1: Department of Life Sciences, Natural History Museum, London SW7 5BD, UK 6 2: Department of Life Sciences, Silwood Park Campus, Imperial College London, Ascot SL5 7PY, UK 7 3: Departamento de Zoología y Antropología Física, Facultad de Veterinaria, Universidad de Murcia, Campus 8 Mare Nostrum, 30100, Murcia, Spain 9 10 Corresponding author: Alejandro López-López ([email protected]) 11 12 Abstract 13 The beetle suborder Adephaga consists of several aquatic (‘Hydradephaga’) and terrestrial 14 (‘Geadephaga’) families whose relationships remain poorly known. In particular, the position 15 of Cicindelidae (tiger beetles) appears problematic, as recent studies have found them either 16 within the Hydradephaga based on mitogenomes, or together with several unlikely relatives 17 in Geadeadephaga based on 18S rRNA genes. We newly sequenced nine mitogenomes of 18 representatives of Cicindelidae and three ground beetles (Carabidae), and conducted 19 phylogenetic analyses together with 29 existing mitogenomes of Adephaga. Our results 20 support a basal split of Geadephaga and Hydradephaga, and reveal Cicindelidae, together 21 with Trachypachidae, as sister to all other Geadephaga, supporting their status as Family. We 22 show that alternative arrangements of basal adephagan relationships coincide with increased 23 rates of evolutionary change and with nucleotide compositional bias, but these confounding 24 factors were overcome by the CAT-Poisson model of PhyloBayes. The mitogenome + 18S 25 rRNA combined matrix supports the same topology only after removal of the hypervariable 26 expansion segments.

G. de viedmal and M. L. els son' Several works on the order Coleoptera have appeared in recent years, some of them creating new superfamilies, others modifying the constitution of these or creating new families, finally others are genera1 revisions of the order. The authors believe that the current classification of this order, incorporating these changes would prove useful. The following outline is based mainly on Crowson (1960, 1964, 1966, 1967, 1971, 1972, 1973) and Crowson and Viedma (1964). For characters used on classification see Viedma (1972) and for family synonyms Abdullah (1969). Major features of this conspectus are the rejection of the two sections of Adephaga (Geadephaga and Hydradephaga), based on Bell (1966) and the new sequence of Heteromera, based mainly on Crowson (1966), with adaptations.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The burrowing water beetle genus Liocanthydrus Guignot, 1957 is redefined and its species are revised. Of the four current species, three are recognized as belonging to the genus and redescribed: L. angustus (Guignot, 1957), L. octoguttatus (Zimmermann, 1921) and L. uniformis (Zimmermann, 1921). The fourth species, L. buqueti (Laporte, 1835) is found to not be a member of Liocanthydrus, but of an undescribed genus. The noterid genus Siolius J. Balfour-Browne, 1969, is synonymized with Liocanthydrus (new synonymy) based on comparison of type specimens in both groups. Two of the three species described in Siolius, S. bicolor J. Balfour-Browne, 1969 and S. clayae J. Balfour-Browne, 1969, are recog- nized as valid, transferred to Liocanthydrus, and redescribed. The third, S. amazonicus J.
