Descriptions of four new species of Enaphalodes are included: E. antonkozlovi, sp. nov. from Costa Rica, E. bingkirki, sp. nov. from Nicaragua, E. monzoni, sp. nov. from Guatemala, and E. cunninghami, sp. nov. from Mexico.

  • The Beetle Fauna of Dominica, Lesser Antilles (Insecta: Coleoptera): Diversity and Distribution
    INSECTA MUNDI, Vol. 20, No. 3-4, September-December, 2006 165 The beetle fauna of Dominica, Lesser Antilles (Insecta: Coleoptera): Diversity and distribution Stewart B. Peck Department of Biology, Carleton University, 1125 Colonel By Drive, Ottawa, Ontario K1S 5B6, Canada stewart_peck@carleton. ca Abstract. The beetle fauna of the island of Dominica is summarized. It is presently known to contain 269 genera, and 361 species (in 42 families), of which 347 are named at a species level. Of these, 62 species are endemic to the island. The other naturally occurring species number 262, and another 23 species are of such wide distribution that they have probably been accidentally introduced and distributed, at least in part, by human activities. Undoubtedly, the actual numbers of species on Dominica are many times higher than now reported. This highlights the poor level of knowledge of the beetles of Dominica and the Lesser Antilles in general. Of the species known to occur elsewhere, the largest numbers are shared with neighboring Guadeloupe (201), and then with South America (126), Puerto Rico (113), Cuba (107), and Mexico-Central America (108). The Antillean island chain probably represents the main avenue of natural overwater dispersal via intermediate stepping-stone islands. The distributional patterns of the species shared with Dominica and elsewhere in the Caribbean suggest stages in a dynamic taxon cycle of species origin, range expansion, distribution contraction, and re-speciation.

Forest Conservation and Management in the Anthropocene: Adaptation of Science, Policy, and Practices Edited by: V. Alaric Sample, President, Pinchot Institute for Conservation, Washington, DC; and R. Patrick Bixler, Research Fellow, Pinchot Institute for Conservation, Washington, DC FOREWORD The future of America’s forests is more uncertain now than at any time since science-based sustainable forest management was established in this country more than a century ago. The Conservation Movement of the late 19th and early 20th century saw the creation of federally protected public forests, establishment of the basic laws and policies that guide the sustainable management of state, private, and tribal forests, and development of an unrivaled capacity for forest research and science. Our knowledge of forests has never been better, yet an area of forest larger than that of several states stands dead or dying, with millions more acres imperiled not by foreign invasive species, but by native insects and pathogens with which these forests have co- acknowledged as the best in the world. Yet millions of acres of public and private forests go up they are today. What is going on here? What has changed? Since the days of the Conservation Movement and Gifford Pinchot’s urgent call to action to protect America’s forests, our population has grown from 76 million people to 325 million.

  • A Revision and Phylogenetic Analysis of Trichrous
    A revision and phylogenetic analysis of Trichrous Chevrolat 1858, and a review of Plectocerum Dejean 1835 (Coleoptera:Cerambycidae:Elaphidiini) by Kelvin Antonio Guerrero A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology Montana State University © Copyright by Kelvin Antonio Guerrero (2001) Abstract: Trichrous Chevrolat was found to be polyphyletic, with 17 named forms belonging to 2 tribes, 5 lineages, and 15 species. Three species are recognized in the redefined elaphidiine genus Trichrous: T. irroratus (Olivier), T. jaegeri Chevrolat, and T. nigripes Fisher. The monophyly of Trichrous sensu nov. is supported by synapomorphies of the hypomeron punctation (relative to disc) and pronotal shape. The relationship between the included species was hypothesized as [[T irroratus, T nigripes] T jaegeri]. This monophyletic genus is endemic to Hispaniola. Trichrous bicolor Fisher (not Salle) is placed under T. jaegeri Chevrolat as a NEW SYNONYMY. Poeciloderma lineolatus White and T pilipennis Chevrolat are moved to Plectocerum Dejean as P. lineolatum (White) NEW COMBINATION and P. pilipenne (Chevrolat) NEW COMBINATION. Eleven names are provisionally removed to the heteropsine genus Heterops: Mallosoma bicolor Salle, Poeciloderma terminalis White, Poeciloderma basalis White, T brevicomis Zayas, T. dimidiatipennis Chevrolat, T. divisus Chevrolat, T. jamaicensis Chevrolat, T. major Gahan, T. prasinus Cazier and Lacey, T. violaceipennis Fisher, and T. vittatus Fisher are now treated as H. bicolor (Salle) NEW COMBINATION, H. terminalis (White) NEW COMBINATION, H. basalis (White) NEW COMBINATION, H. brevicomis (Zayas) NEW COMBINATION, H. dimidiatipennis (Chevrolat) NEW COMBINATION, H. divisus (Chevrolat) NEW COMBINATION, H. major (Gahan) NEW COMBINATION, H. prasinus (Cazier and Lacey) NEW COMBINATION, H.

Steury U.S. National Park Service 700 George Washington Memorial Parkway Turkey Run Park Headquarters McLean, Virginia 22101 Ted C. MacRae Monsanto Company 700 Chesterfield Parkway West Chesterfield, Missouri 63017 ABSTRACT Eighty species in 60 genera of cerambycid beetles were documented during a 17-year field survey of a national park (George Washington Memorial Parkway) that spans parts of Fairfax County, Virginia and Montgomery County, Maryland. Twelve species are documented for the first time from Virginia. The study increases the number of longhorned beetles known from the Potomac River Gorge to 101 species. Malaise traps and hand picking (from vegetation or at building lights) were the most successful capture methods employed during the survey. Periods of adult activity, based on dates of capture, are given for each species. Relative abundance is noted for each species based on the number of captures. Notes on plant foraging associations are noted for some species. Two species are considered adventive to North America. Key words: Cerambycidae, Coleoptera, longhorned beetles, Maryland, national park, new state records, Potomac River Gorge, Virginia. INTRODUCTION that feed on flower pollen are usually boldly colored and patterned, often with a bee-like golden-yellow The Cerambycidae, commonly known as pubescence. Nocturnal species are more likely glabrous longhorned beetles because of the length of their and uniformly dark, while bicolored species (often antennae, represent a large insect family of more than black and red) are thought to mimic other beetles which 20,000 described species, including 1,100 in North are distasteful.
