  • 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.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • The Anthicidae and Ischaliidae (Coleoptera) of Atlantic Canada Christopher G
    J. Acad. Entomol. Soc. 7: 50-64 (2011) The Anthicidae and Ischaliidae (Coleoptera) of Atlantic Canada Christopher G. Majka ABSTRACT The present paper surveys the ant-like flower beetles (Coleoptera: Anthicidae) and false fire-colored beetles (Coleoptera: Ischaliidae) of Atlantic Canada. Seventeen new provincial records are reported including two species, Amblyderus granularis and Anthicus cervinus, which are newly recorded in the region. Fifteen species have now been recorded in Atlantic Canada, 13 of which have been found in New Brunswick, 14 in Nova Scotia, seven in Prince Edward Island, and three on insular Newfoundland. Distribution maps, keys to the identification of species, and colour habitus photographs are provided. Ecologically, the species fall into three categories: anthropophilic species (Omonadus floralisand Omonadus formicarius); saproxylic species (Ischalia costata); and beetles associated with beach drift and other sandy environments (all other species). The comparative dearth of historical collecting in such habitats suggests the distribution and abundance of many Atlantic Canadian species may be poorly documented, and the possibility exists that additional, undocumented species may be present. RÉSUMÉ Cet article recense les Anthicidés (Coleoptera: Anthicidae) et les Ischaliidés (Coleoptera: Ischaliidae) du Canada Atlantique. Dix-sept additions à la faune provinciale sont rapportées, incluant Amblyderus granularis et Anthicus cervinus, deux espèces décrites pour la première fois dans la région. Quinze espèces ont maintenant été enregistrées au Canada Atlantique, dont 13 ont été trouvées au Nouveau Brunswick, 14 en Nouvelle-Écosse, sept à l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard et trois sur l’île de Terre-Neuve. Des cartes de distribution, des clés d’identification des espèces et des photographies couleurs de l’habitus sont fournies.

  • Lower Madawaska River Provincial Park
    LOWER MADAWASKA RIVER PROVINCIAL PARK One Malaise trap was deployed at Lower Madawaska River Provincial Park in 2014 (45.25606, -77.19221, 280m ASL; Figure 1). This trap collected arthropods for twenty weeks from May 7 – September 24, 2014. All 10 Malaise trap samples were processed; every other sample was analyzed using the individual specimen protocol while the second half was analyzed via bulk analysis. A total of 3229 BINs were obtained. Over half the BINs captured were flies (Diptera), followed by bees, ants and wasps (Hymenoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and beetles (Coleoptera; Figure 2). In total, 647 arthropod species were named, representing 21.6% of the BINs from the site (Appendix 1). All but 1 of the BINs were assigned Figure 1. Malaise trap deployed at Lower Madawaska at least to family, and 55.3% were assigned to a genus River Provincial Park in 2014. (Appendix 2). Specimens collected from Lower Madawaska River represent 244 different families and 779 genera.

  • Cantharidin-Secretion by Elytral Notches of Male Anthicid Species
    Cantharidin-Secretion by Elytral Notches of Male Anthicid Species (Coleoptera: Anthicidae) Claudia Schütz and Konrad Dettner Lehrstuhl für Tierökologie II, Postfach 101251, NWI, D-W-8580 Bayreuth, Bundesrepublik Deutschland Z. Naturforsch. 47c, 290-299 (1992); received September 13, 1991/January 12, 1992 Cantharidin, Elytral Notches, Sexual Selection, Anthicidae, Coleoptera Within the beetle family Anthicidae or ant-like flower beetles the canthariphilous species Notoxus monoceros shows a pair of notch-like structures on the apices of male elytra. A reser­ voir-like swelling at the apex of each elytron contains a bilobed gland. Its glandular tubules run into the sclerotized notch. Gaschromatographic investigations of elytral notches and the testes of cantharidin-fed and unfed male Notoxus monoceros revealed huge quantities of can­ tharidin stored in these organs in fed specimens. Other body parts, such as legs, elytral parts or flight muscles, had low cantharidin-titres, both in cantharidin-fed and unfed beetles. The can- tharidin-titres of unfed individuals were very low compared with cantharidin-fed specimens, although cantharidin was present, mostly in notches. During sexual display the females bite several times into these notches and easily copulate, if the males had access to offered canthari­ din crystals. Thus, the elytral notches of male Notoxus monoceros seem to function as „test- organs“ for females which are able to select males with high cantharidin loads prior to copula­ tion. Even small quantities of cantharidin stored in notches of field caught specimens seem of advantage for males in competing for a female partner. Introduction fed male specimens were accepted by females for copulation.
