  • From Chewing to Sucking Via Phylogeny—From Sucking to Chewing Via Ontogeny: Mouthparts of Neuroptera
    Chapter 11 From Chewing to Sucking via Phylogeny—From Sucking to Chewing via Ontogeny: Mouthparts of Neuroptera Dominique Zimmermann, Susanne Randolf, and Ulrike Aspöck Abstract The Neuroptera are highly heterogeneous endopterygote insects. While their relatives Megaloptera and Raphidioptera have biting mouthparts also in their larval stage, the larvae of Neuroptera are characterized by conspicuous sucking jaws that are used to imbibe fluids, mostly the haemolymph of prey. They comprise a mandibular and a maxillary part and can be curved or straight, long or short. In the pupal stages, a transformation from the larval sucking to adult biting and chewing mouthparts takes place. The development during metamorphosis indicates that the larval maxillary stylet contains the Anlagen of different parts of the adult maxilla and that the larval mandibular stylet is a lateral outgrowth of the mandible. The mouth- parts of extant adult Neuroptera are of the biting and chewing functional type, whereas from the Mesozoic era forms with siphonate mouthparts are also known. Various food sources are used in larvae and in particular in adult Neuroptera. Morphological adaptations of the mouthparts of adult Neuroptera to the feeding on honeydew, pollen and arthropods are described in several examples. New hypoth- eses on the diet of adult Nevrorthidae and Dilaridae are presented. 11.1 Introduction The order Neuroptera, comprising about 5820 species (Oswald and Machado 2018), constitutes together with its sister group, the order Megaloptera (about 370 species), and their joint sister group Raphidioptera (about 250 species) the superorder Neuropterida. Neuroptera, formerly called Planipennia, are distributed worldwide and comprise 16 families of extremely heterogeneous insects.

This discovery represents the first record of this family both from Japan and from East Asia. This fossil taxon has the largest foreleg in the subfamily Paraberothinae found to date and its discovery implies that this group had higher morphologi- cal diversity in the Cretaceous than it does now. This finding also stresses the importance of the insect inclusions in Kuji amber, which have not been well explored in spite of their potential abundance.

  • INSECTS of MICRONESIA Neuroptera: Hemerobiidae*
    INSECTS OF MICRONESIA Neuroptera: Hemerobiidae* By F. M. CARPENTER HARVARD UNIVERSITY INTRODUCTION This account is based mainly on about 150 specimens of Hemerobiidae from Micronesia. All of this material was placed at my disposal through the courtesy of Dr. J. L. Gressitt, to whom I am indebted for the opportunity of making this study. The United States Office of Naval Research, the Pacific Science Board (National Research Council), the National Science Foundation, and Bernice P. Bishop Museum have made this survey and publication of the results pos­ sible. Field research was aided by a contract between the Office of Naval Re­ search, Department of the Navy, and the National Academy of Sciences, NR 160-175. In the course of this study I have made much use of specimens in the Mu­ seum of Comparative Zoology and I have been helped to an inestimable extent by my examination of a type of Micromus navigatorum Brauer, sent to me by Dr. Beier of the Naturhistorisches Museum in Vienna. Specimens are deposited at the following institutions: Bernice P. Bishop Museum (BISHOP), United States National Museum (US), and Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University (MCZ). Only three species are represented in this Micronesian collection, two in Annandalia and the third in Micromus. The third species, M. navigatorum, has now acquired a very wide distribution, in part, at least, through the agency of man. The two species of Annandalia are, so far as now known, endemic to Micronesia. Annandalia and Micromus are only distantly' related within the family Hemerobiidae and they can readily be distinguished: Annandalia has a broad costal area basally, with a well developed recurrent vein; Micromus has a narrow costal area basally and lacks entirely the recurrent vein.

Gepp J-, H. Aspöck & H. Hölzel ed., 265 pp^ 1984, Graz. Flight activity of Czechoslovak Hemerobiidae and Chrysopidae: Investigation by light trap By Jift ZELENf (Praha) Abstract In the years 1967 to 1971 a light trap fixed on the wall of a park building in Praha - Ruzyné (Central Bohemia) was used for catches which finally included 21 species of the family Hemerobii- dae (36 species known from Czechoslovakia) and 13 species of the family Chrysopidae (24 species known from Czechoslovakia). It is assumed that from both aphidophagous families all species to be reckoned with on this locality were present in the catches. With a proportion of 37% of speci- mens of one family, Hemerobius lutescens (F.) represented the most abundantly and most regularly occurring species. Next in order were H. humulinus L. (13%), Wesmaelius subnebulosus (STEPH.) (11%), Micromus variegati* (F.) (10%), and H. pini STEPH. (9%). Of the family Chrysopidae the species Chrysoperla carnea (STEPH.) prevailed ultimately (ab. 90% specimens of one family). The most intensive fligth activity in both species and specimens was recorded from mid-August to mid-September (2nd generation). The composition of the fauna corresponded to the species representation of trees growing in the surroundings of the trap: Acer platanoides, Betula sp., Quercus sp., Fagus silvatica, Pinussilvestris, and Picea sp.

E-mail: [email protected] 3Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Elektroberotha groehni gen. et sp. nov. (Neuroptera: Berothidae) is described from Baltic amber. The genus is assigned to Berothinae based on female terminalia that have the following characteristics: long hypocaudae on gonocoxite 9; ster- nite 7 that is medially divided into a pair of lateral sclerites; and gonocoxite 8 with a medial process that is very similar to that of some extant berothine genera. The new genus is the first described fossil genus of the subfamily Berothinae. It is noteworthy for the possession of a fully-developed CuP in the hind wing, a vein that is strongly reduced in all other species of the subfamily. The genus Spiroberotha is considered to belong to the Berothinae. Key words: Baltic amber, Eocene, Berothidae, Berothinae Introduction The Berothidae is a small family (approximately 130 extant species, including Rhachiberothinae) that occurs in most warm-temperate to tropical regions of the world, and very rarely in temperate regions (Oswald 2013).

    Checklist of the Neuroptera (Lacewings, Mantidflies, Antlions and Relatives) of British Columbia by Geoff Scudder and Rob Cannings (2008) The order Neuroptera is represented in British Columbia by eight families, 24 genera and 72 known species. The first BC list was published by Spencer (1942) when the three neuropteroid orders found in the province (Megaloptera, Raphidioptera and Neuroptera) were considered one order (Neuroptera). Garland and Kevan (2007) document the Chrysopidae, Klimaszewski and Kevan (1985, 1987, 1988, 1992) list the Hemerobiidae, Meinander (1972, 1974) list the Coniopterygidae and Cannings and Cannings (2006) document the Mantispidae. The classification used here is based on that of Oswald and Penny (1991). Two species of Coniopterygidae marked (A) are alien introductions.

ZooKeys 64 : 1 – 8 . doi: 10.3897/zookeys.64.403 Abstract Stenobiella variola sp. n., a new species of beaded lacewing (Neuroptera: Berothidae), is described and fi gured from south-eastern Australia. A preliminary key to Stenobiella species is presented. Keywords Berothidae, Neuroptera, lacewing Introduction Beaded lacewings (Berothidae) are a small family of Neuroptera comprising approxi- mately 100 species occurring throughout most biogeographical regions. Members of the family are recognised by elongation of the pronotum, female usually with hypocau- dae and substantial cubital veins in both wings. Th e larvae are associated with termites, and undergo a degree of hypermetamorphosis during development (Brushwein, 1987). Four subfamilies of Berothidae are recognised: Rhachiberothinae, Cyrenoberothi- nae, Berothinae and Nosybinae (Aspöck, 1986; MacLeod and Adams, 1967; New, Copyright Shaun L. Winterton.
