Oberhess. Naturwiss. Zeitschr. 2021, 69: 7-57, Gießen ISSN 0340-4498 Zur Biologie und Ökologie von Stenoria analis Schaum, 1859 (Coleoptera: Meloidae) – Ergebnisse einer fünfjährigen Untersuchung des Seidenbienen- Ölkäfers im Botanischen Garten Gießen HANS BAHMER*) UND JOHANNES LÜCKMANN**) Abstract The family of the blister beetles (Coleoptera: Meloidae) is a relatively small group, which consists of 18 species in Germany and is characterised by its parasitic life history. Among them, the family includes the ivy bee blister beetle, Stenoria analis Schaum, 1859, which was recorded in West Germany for the first time in 2013 and which develops in the nest of the ivy mining bee, Colletes hederae Schmidt & Westrich, 1993. The beetle was first detected in the botanical garden Gießen in 2016, his host three years before. To investigate the reproductive biology of the beetle and the host finding strategy of the larvae (triungulins), the botanical garden was haunted daily between 2016 until 2020. No differences were found for the phenological occurrence of the male and female beetles. During their activity period the females produce clutches of at least 117 to 335 eggs, which were deposited e. g. on leaves, faded or still closed flower heads as well as on grasses. Hatching of the triungulins was observed after 15 to 24 days. A few days later, the larvae aggregate to clusters, which may rope down at thready like structures, which were itself made of excretions by the abdominal end of the larvae. These clusters seem to play a central role in the host finding of the triungulins, probably lure male bees by optic and/or chemical mimicry and thus induce a contact (pseudocopulation). -

Aktuelle Beobachtungen Des Neubürgers Stenoria Analis Schaum 1859, in Nordbaden (Coleoptera: Meloidae) Peter Weiser, Sandhausen
63 Aktuelle Beobachtungen des Neubürgers Stenoria analis Schaum 1859, in Nordbaden (Coleoptera: Meloidae) Peter Weiser, Sandhausen Seit Jahren wird in Süddeutschland eine Ausbreitung der erst 1993 als eigene Art beschrie- benen Efeu-Seidenbiene (Colletes hederae Schmidt & Westrich 1993) festgestellt. Diese Biene legt für ihren Nachwuchs Brutgänge in sandigem Boden an. Die Efeu-Seidenbiene fliegt erst spät im Jahr, denn sie sammelt zur Versorgung des Nachwuchses nur Pollen von Efeu (Hedera helix), der erst ab September blüht. An verschiedenen Stellen in der Schwetzinger Hardt, aber auch auf den Dünen um Sandhausen, konnte man in den vergangen Jahren grö- ßere Kolonien der Efeu-Seidenbiene nachweisen (Weiser, unpublizierte Beobachtungen, u.a. nach Hinweisen von Rolf Beiderbeck, Sandhausen (Abb. 1)). Der Schwarze Pelzbienen-Ölkäfer (Stenoria analis Schaum 1859) ist eigentlich aus dem Mit- telmeerraum bzw. Südeuropa bekannt, obwohl die Erstbeschreibung anhand von Funden in der Mark-Brandenburg und Schlesien stattfand. Funde in Mitteleuropa gab es im 20. Jahr- hundert praktisch nicht. Nach einem Einzelfund 1990 in der Ostslowakei gab es 1998 einen Nachweis in Brandenburg (Eichler et al. 1999). Seit 2013 gibt es vereinzelte Beobachtungen in Süddeutschland (Niehuis & Lückmann 2013). Der Schwarze Pelzbienen-Ölkäfer ist als Parasitoid ein Gegenspieler der Seidenbienen. Ölkä- fer weisen eine komplexe Entwicklung auf. Aus den Eiern, die auf Pflanzen abgelegt werden, schlüpfen so genannte Triungulus-Larven (bzw. auch Triungulinus; Dreiklauer). Diese verblei- ben offenbar am Ort der Eiablage und locken die Wirtsbienen-Männchen, die vor den Weib- chen fliegen, durch Pheromone an (Vereecken & Mahe 2007). Die Männchen versuchen sich mit dem vermeintlichen Weibchen zu paaren. Dabei heften sich die Larven an den Körper der Männchen an. -

Highly Specialized Cretaceous Beetle Parasitoids (Ripiphoridae) Identified
Systematic Entomology (2019), 44, 396–407 DOI: 10.1111/syen.12331 Highly specialized Cretaceous beetle parasitoids (Ripiphoridae) identified with optimized visualization of microstructures JAN BATELKA1, JAKUB PROKOP1 , HANS POHL2,MINGBAI3, WEIWEI ZHANG4 andROLF G. BEUTEL2 1Department of Zoology, Faculty of Science, Charles University, Praha 2, Czech Republic, 2Institut für Zoologie und Evolutionsforschung, FSU Jena, Jena, Germany, 3Key Laboratory of Zoological Systematics and Evolution, Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China and 4Unaffiliated, Chongqing, P. R. China Abstract. Extremely miniaturized longipedes insects (body length c. 0.3 mm) embed- ded in two pieces of Cretaceous amber from Myanmar are described and interpreted. Using inverted fluorescence and light microscopy for detailed analysis of microstruc- tures, the inclusions were identified as primary larvae of the beetle family Ripiphoridae, subfamily Ripidiinae. While the structure of thoracic and abdominal segments includ- ing appendages corresponds well with the groundplan known in recent members of Ripidiinae, a curved prosternal ridge with prominent spines (each c.5m), the reduced condition of stemmata and antennae and the lack of sharp mandibles are unique features within the entire family, apparently apomorphies of the longipedes larvae. A sinuate prosternal edge with a dense row of spines (prosternoctenidium) might be homologous with ‘head ctenidia’ in some previously described miniaturized conicocephalate larvae, but further investigation is -

Behavioral Characterization of Blister Beetles (Coleoptera: Meloidae) in the World: a Bibliographic Review
International Journal of Social and Behavioural Sciences Vol. 1 (2), pp. 033-048, February 2013 Available online at http://www.academeresearchjournals.org/journal/ijsbs ISSN 2327-719X ©2013 Academe Research Journals Review Behavioral characterization of blister beetles (Coleoptera: Meloidae) in the world: A bibliographic review Karem S. Ghoneim Faculty of Science, Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt. E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted 8 February 2013 The Meloidae (blister or oil beetles) are widely distributed in the world. They have serious impacts, whether agronomic, veterinary or medical. The present review discussed several aspects in the behavioral ecology of Meloidae. The sexual behavior phases varied among meloid species including searching for mate, approaching and some physical contacts ending in mating. Cantharidin usually be employed as a nuptial gift in the courtship. Courtship may be repeated and the assortative mating may be taken place. Mate-guarding was, also, recorded for certain species. The present work comprehensively reviewed, also, the feeding tactics, defensive measures and cleaning antennae among the non-sexual behavioral patterns of Meloidae. An intensive attention was paid to the phoresy behavior focusing on triungulin structural adaptation for phoresy, scenarios of phoresy and phoresy as dispersal way as well as a taxonomic tool. The uses of sexual and egg-laying behavior in the systematics of Meloidae had been presented. Key words: Courtship, nuptial gift, cantharidin, oviposition, phoresy, defensive behaviour, cleaning behaviour, physiology.

Chemical Mimicry at Its Finest1,2
725 REVIEW / SYNTHE` SE Cheaters and liars: chemical mimicry at its finest1,2 N.J. Vereecken and J.N. McNeil Abstract: Chemical mimicry is an essential part of certain interspecific interactions, where the outcome for both species may depend on the degree to which the original signals are mimicked. In this review, we discuss a number of specific cases relating to pollination and obtaining nutrient resources that we believe exemplify recent advances in our understand- ing of chemical mimicry. Subsequently, we suggest avenues for future ecological and chemical research that should allow us to gain further insight into the evolution of chemical mimicry.

— THE BLISTER BEETLE TEICRANIA SANGUINIPENNIS— BIOLOGY, DESCRIPTIONS OF DIFFERENT STAGES, AND SYSTEMATIC RELATIONSHIP. By J. B. Parker, Of the Catholic University of America, Brookland, District of Columbia, and Adam G. Boving, Of the Bureau of Entomology, United ^States Department of Agriculture. INTRODUCTION. The family Meloidae is distributed all over the world and has been the subject of the studies of several prominent entomologists. Nevertheless, it is a group but insufficiently looked into from the different angles of natural history and especially has the biology of the family and the description of its different larval stages been less worked out than is generally realized. The metamorphosis was unknown until 1851 and since then only a few important contributions have appeared on this subject, namely, the classical papers of Newport, Fabre, Mayet, Riley, Beauregard, Kunckel d'Herculais, and the modern, numerous, very important pub- lications by A, Cros, who has given complete or partial accounts of the biology of many of the hitherto little known or entirely unknown genera and species. However, as mentioned, much knowledge is still lacking of the life history and structural details of several important forms, this being especially true of our American species. Concerning these little has been written since Riley's famous publications on Epicauta and -Hornia. Thus, the life history of a genus so common as Macro- hasis has not yet been fully investigated, though F. B. Milliken has recently contributed some valuable information. Of 31 North American genera we have complete biological records of only 1, namely Epicauta; and partial records of 2, Hornia and Macrohasis; the life history of the remaining 29 being unknown or known only through European publications on European species. -
