A New Species of Terellia Robineau-Desvoidy (Diptera: Tephritidae) from Turkey
Turk J Zool 33 (2009) 297-300 © TÜBİTAK Research Article doi:10.3906/zoo-0805-19 A new species of Terellia Robineau-Desvoidy (Diptera: Tephritidae) from Turkey Murat KÜTÜK* Gaziantep University, Faculty of Science & Arts, Department of Biology, 27310 Gaziantep - TURKEY Received: 22.05.2008 Abstract: Terellia yukseli n. sp. was collected in Turkey from Centaurea urvillei DC. and is described, illustrated, and placed in the subgenus Cerajocera. Type locality is Niğde Sazlıca, and specimens were collected from Centaurea urvillei DC. This species is most similar to T. setifera Hendel and T. clarissima Korneyev in having entirely hyaline wing. It can be distinguished from other species of Terellia by the lack of wing spot pattern, the presence of a spinose antennal horn, and characteristic glans and aculeus. Photographs of the specimens and detailed illustrations of the genitalia structures are provided.

Hymenoptera: Vespidae) in a Post-Agricultural Landscape of the Kampinos National Park in Poland Katarzyna Szczepko 1*, Andrzej Kruk 2* & Bogdan Wiśniowski 3
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Local habitat conditions shaping the assemblages of vespid wasps (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) in a post-agricultural landscape of the Kampinos National Park in Poland Katarzyna Szczepko 1*, Andrzej Kruk 2* & Bogdan Wiśniowski 3 The landscape of the Kampinos National Park (KPN), a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in Poland, is a mosaic of habitats created by natural processes and human activities. However, ongoing abandonment of traditional management has led to the development of forest communities in formerly open areas. The aim of the study was to identify the local habitat conditions promoting the abundance and diversity of wasp species (Vespidae) in the post-agricultural landscape of KPN. A total of 52 samples of Vespidae caught per unit efort (CPUE) were collected across various habitats with diferent levels of soil humidity, bare ground and mosaicity. The highest numbers and greatest species richness of vespids were recorded in open habitats on semihydrogenic and dry soil, which provided nesting sites for hypergeic (nesting above the ground) and endogeic (ground nesting) wasps. Many solitary species that are hypergeic were signifcantly associated with old, abandoned wooden buildings. As vespids need resources to build and provision the nest, their communities were shaped not only by the nature of the habitat sampled but also by the mosaicity of the surrounding area. The highest abundance and species richness were recorded in samples from a heterogenous landscape, which provided a wider range of available resources in the vicinity of the nest. Our fndings have signifcant implications for the management of park landscapes: aforestation of open habitats, both human-induced and resulting from natural succession, and the removal of old abandoned wooden buildings may limit landscape mosaicity and thus decrease hymenopteran diversity. -

Hymenoptera: Chrysididae) in Estonia Ascertained with Trap-Nesting

Hymenoptera, Chrysididae, cuckoo wasps, parasite specialization, trap nest, Chrysis, host specificity Abstract. Cuckoo wasps (Chrysididae) are a medium-sized and widespread family of Hymenoptera whose species are generally para- sitoids or cleptoparasites of solitary wasps and bees. The identities of the hosts are known from various studies and occasional records; however the utility of such data is often low due to unstable taxonomy of the species and the inappropriate methods used to determine the host species. Therefore, despite numerous publications on the subject, the host-parasite relationships of cuckoo wasps are poorly understood. Moreover, a revision of existing literature reveals that cuckoo wasps are often unreasonably considered to be unspecialized (i.e., sharing host species). In this study we use an accurate method (trap-nests) to determine the host relationships of Estonian cuckoo wasps of the genera Chrysis and Trichrysis and determine their level of specialization. 568 trap nest bundles (each containing 15–20 single reed stems) were established at 361 locations across Estonia during the vegetation periods of 2009–2011. -

Many of these species summed here are specialized in their habitat, so they were seldom searched for and consequently are rarely represented in collections. Nevertheless especially the data of Tephri- tidae show a fairly good knowledge of the distribution throughout Bavaria. - The Platystomatidae are represendet with 3 species, the Otitidae with 20, the Ulidiidae with 3, the Tephritidae with 90, the Lonchaeidae with 8, the Pallopteridae with 11, the Neottiophilidae with 1, the Piophilidae with 8, and the Clusiidae with 4.

Einleitung Bis auf die Tephritidae handelt es sich um artenarme Familien. Spezialisiert auf bestimmte Umweltbedingungen, sind die meisten Arten relativ selten zu sehen und dementsrechend auch in Sammlungen wenig vertreten. Wie bei den vorhergehenden Beiträgen dieser Reihe wurde versucht, ein möglichst vollständiges Bild der bisherigen Beobachtungen zu erhalten.

Check-List of Eumeninae Wasps (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) Collected in Lithuania Using Trap-Nests
140 NEW AND RARE FOR LITHUANIA INSECT SPECIES. Volume 21 CHECK-LIST OF EUMENINAE WASPS (HYMENOPTERA: VESPIDAE) COLLECTED IN LITHUANIA USING TRAP-NESTS EDUARDAS BUDRYS 1, 2 , ANNA BUDRIEN Ė1, ŽANETA NEVRONYT Ė 1, 2 1 Institute of Ecology of Vilnius University, Akademijos 2, LT-08412 Vilnius, Lithuania. 2 Department of Zoology of Vilnius University, M.K. Čiurlionio g. 21/27, LT-03101 Vilnius, Lithuania. E-mail: [email protected] Introduction The Vespidae wasps are widely distributed and abundant, however, the knowledge of distribution and abundance of these insects in the Lithuanian fauna is limited. First three species ( Vespula germanica , Ancistrocerus antilope and Eumenes coarctatus ) were listed by Strand (1918). Wengris (1962) supplemented the check-list with 18 species. Five new species were recorded by Budrys (1997). Finally, our earlier studies of prey (Budrien ė, 2003), nesting cavity choice (Budrien ė et al ., 2004) and population size (Budrys et al ., 2004) included four additional species, though the accurate species distribution data were not presented. The Fauna Europaea database (Gusenleitner, 2004) contains 24 species that are supposed to be present in Lithuania; however, it is not supported by collection data or references where the records may be found. In total, the current check-list of Vespidae of the Lithuanian fauna included 36 species. The aim of this contribution is to provide precise distribution data on the Eumeninae wasps collected using trap-nests in 1988–2008, including those used in our earlier studies of wasp ecology and behaviour, and supplementing the local species check-list with one new species. Material and methods We reared the wasps from their nests which were collected using small trap-nests. -
