  • Providing a Base for Conservation of True Bugs (Insecta, Heteroptera) and Their Saline Habitats in Vojvodina (Northern Serbia)
    Short Note Hyla VOL. 2016., No.1, pp. 19- 23 ISSN: 1848-2007 Šeat et al. Providing a base for conservation of true bugs (Insecta, Heteroptera) and their saline habitats in Vojvodina (northern Serbia) 1 1,2 1 1,2 JELENA ŠEAT , BOJANA NADAŽDIN , MARIJA CVETKOVIĆ , ALEKSANDRA JOVANOV , 1,2 & IVAN TOT 1 HabiProt, Bulevar Oslobođenja 106/34, 11040 Belgrade, Serbia; e-mail: [email protected] 2 SRSBES “Josif Pančić”, Trg Dositeja Obradovića 2, 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia Abstract Saline habitats of the Pannonian region are recognised as conservation priorities by EU legislation, and represent rare semi-natural habitats in mostly agricultural lowland of northern Serbia. Saline habitats have a key role in conservation of numerous plant and animal species in Vojvodina, as well as characteristic communities of true bugs. These insects belong to one of the most diverse insect groups in saline habitats. Species Henestaris halophilus (BURMEISTER, 1835), Conostethus hungaricus WAGNER, 1941 and Solenoxyphus fuscovenosus (FIEBER, 1864) are saline specialists and can be found only in these habitat types. True bugs have great qualities for future biomonitoring projects concerning habitats such as saline grasslands and wetlands. During the study, species Hydrometra gracilenta HORVÁTH, 1899 and Solenoxyphus fuscovenosus (FIEBER, 1864) are recorded for the first time in Serbia. Key words: Hemiptera, salt steppes, salt marshes, alkaline lakes, Pannonian plain Saline or halophitic habitats in Serbia are floods in spring (BOROS, 2003; TÖRÖK ET AL., 2011), are mostly situated in the northern part of the country, in apparently not favourable for many groups of insects, Vojvodina Province, and these habitats are listed among but the true bugs are among the most abundant and the the priority habitats by the Annex I of the EU Habitat most diverse insects in them.

  • Phylogenetic Relationships of Tachinid Flies in Subfamily Exoristinae Tachinidae: Diptera) Based on 28S Rdna and Elongation Factor-1A
    Systematic Entomology *2002) 27,409±435 Phylogenetic relationships of tachinid flies in subfamily Exoristinae Tachinidae: Diptera) based on 28S rDNA and elongation factor-1a JOHN O. STIREMAN III Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology,University of Arizona,Tucson,U.S.A. Abstract. The phylogenetic relationships within the largest subfamily of Tachi- nidae,Exoristinae,were explored using nucleotide sequences of two genes *EF-1 a and 28S rDNA). A total of fifty-five and forty-three taxa were represented in the analyses for each gene,respectively,representing forty-three genera. Neighbour joining,parsimony and maximum likelihood inference methods were employed to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships in separate analyses of each gene,and parsimony was used to analyse the combined dataset. Although certain taxa were highly mobile,phylogenetic reconstructions generally supported recent clas- sification schemes based on reproductive habits and genitalia. Generally,the monophyly of Tachinidae and Exoristinae was supported. Tribes Winthemiini, Exoristini and Blondeliini were repeatedly constructed as monophyletic groups, with the former two clades often occupying a basal position among Exoristinae. Goniini and Eryciini generally clustered together as a derived clade within Exoristinae; however,they were never reconstructed as two distinct clades. These results suggest that the possession of unembryonated eggs is plesiomorphic within the subfamily and that there may have been multiple transitions between micro- type and macrotype egg forms. Introduction 1987; Williams et al.,1990; Eggleton & Belshaw,1993), and the wide variety of mechanisms by which they attack Tachinidae is generally regarded as a relatively recent, them *O'Hara,1985).

  • Specialization in Plant–Pollinator Networks
    Villalobos et al. BMC Ecol (2019) 19:34 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12898-019-0250-z BMC Ecology RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Specialization in plant–pollinator networks: insights from local-scale interactions in Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park in Alberta, Canada Soraya Villalobos1* , José Manuel Sevenello‑Montagner2 and Jana C. Vamosi1 Abstract Background: The occurrence and frequency of plant–pollinator interactions are acknowledged to be a function of multiple factors, including the spatio‑temporal distribution of species. The study of pollination specialization by exam‑ ining network properties and more recently incorporating predictors of pairwise interactions is emerging as a useful framework, yet integrated datasets combining network structure, habitat disturbance, and phylogenetic information are still scarce. Results: We found that plant–pollinator interactions in a grassland ecosystem in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains are not randomly distributed and that high levels of reciprocal specialization are generated by biological constraints, such as foral symmetry, pollinator size and pollinator sociality, because these traits lead to morphological or pheno‑ logical mismatching between interacting species. We also detected that landscape degradation was associated with diferences in the network topology, but the interaction webs still maintained a consistently higher number of recip‑ rocal specialization cases than expected. Evidence for the reciprocal evolutionary dependence in visitors (e.g., related pollinators visiting related plants) were weak in this study system, however we identifed key species joining clustered units. Conclusions: Our results indicate that the conserved links with keystone species may provide the foundation for generating local reciprocal specialization. From the general topology of the networks, plant–pollinators interactions in sites with disturbance consisted of generalized nodes connecting modules (i.e., hub and numerous connectors).

Federal law requires a non-federal landowner who wishes to conduct activities that may harm (“take”) threatened or endangered wildlife on their land to obtain an incidental take permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. State law requires a non-federal public landowner who wishes to conduct activities that may harm threatened or endangered plants to obtain a permit from the Oregon Department of Agriculture.
