A Checklist of the Limnichidae and the Lutrochidae (Coleoptera) of the World
INSECTA MUNDI, Vol. 15, No.3, September, 2001 151 A checklist of the Limnichidae and the Lutrochidae (Coleoptera) of the world P. J. Spangler, C. L. Staines, P.M. Spangler, and S.L. Staines Department of Entomology National Museum of Natural History Smithsonian Institution Washington, DC 20560 Abstract. A checklist of the world species of Limnichidae (35 genera, 345 species) and Lutrochidae (1 genus, 11 species) is presented. The author, year of publication and page number, synonyms, distribution by country, and a terminal bibliography are given for each genus and species. Biological information is also reviewed. Introduction scribed the species and adult behavior of Lutrochus arizonicus Brown and Murvosh. Hilsenhoff and The Limnichidae Erichson (1847) and Lutro Schmude (1992) reported that adults of L. laticeps chidae Kasap and Crowson (1975) are small semi Casey (1893) were found in small to large, warm, aquatic beetles; adults of both families most fre calcareous streams; that adults oviposit on sub quently live in riparian habitats. Both families merged wood or on travertine rocks; and larvae were previously assigned to the superfamily Dry were aquatic and were collected on the travertine opoidea (Crowson, 1978); however, they are now rocks. placed in the Byrrhoidea (Lawrence and Newton, Previous world catalogs that included the lim 1995). From 1975 through 1993, D. P. Wooldridge nichids and lutrochids are by Zaitzev (1910) and published numerous limnichid descriptions and von Dalla Torre (1911) who recorded 11 genera and revisions but much systematic work remains to be 75 species.

Shell Microstructures in Early Cambrian Molluscs
Shell microstructures in Early Cambrian molluscs ARTEM KOUCHINSKY Kouchinsky, A. 2000. Shell microstructures in Early Cambrian molluscs. - Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 45,2, 119-150. The affinities of a considerable part of the earliest skeletal fossils are problematical, but investigation of their microstructures may be useful for understanding biomineralization mechanisms in early metazoans and helpful for their taxonomy. The skeletons of Early Cambrian mollusc-like organisms increased by marginal secretion of new growth lamel- lae or sclerites, the recognized basal elements of which were fibers of apparently aragon- ite. The juvenile part of some composite shells consisted of needle-like sclerites; the adult part was built of hollow leaf-like sclerites. A layer of mineralized prism-like units (low aragonitic prisms or flattened spherulites) surrounded by an organic matrix possibly existed in most of the shells with continuous walls. The distribution of initial points of the prism-like units on a periostracurn-like sheet and their growth rate were mostly regular. The units may be replicated on the surface of internal molds as shallow concave poly- gons, which may contain a more or less well-expressed tubercle in their center. Tubercles are often not enclosed in concave polygons and may co-occur with other types of tex- tures. Convex polygons seem to have resulted from decalcification of prism-like units. They do not co-occur with tubercles. The latter are interpreted as casts of pore channels in the wall possibly playing a role in biomineralization or pits serving as attachment sites of groups of mantle cells. Casts of fibers and/or lamellar units may overlap a polygonal tex- ture or occur without it. -

We conducted the first comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of Pse- phenidae, based on 143 morphological characters of adults, larvae and pupae and coded for 34 taxa, representing three outgroups and 31 psephenid genera, including four undescribed ones. A strict consensus tree calculated (439 steps, consistency index ¼ 0.45, retention index ¼ 0.75) from the two most-parsimonious cladograms indicated that the monophyly of the family and subfamilies is supported, with the exception of Eubriinae, which is paraphyletic when including Afroeubria. Here a new subfamily, Afroeubriinae (subfam.n.), is formally estab- lished for Afroeubria. The analysis also indicated that the ‘streamlined’ larva is a derived adaptive radiation. Here, suprageneric taxonomy and the evolution of some significant characters are discussed. Keys are provided to the subfamilies and genera of Psephenidae considering larvae, adults and pupae. Introduction type specimens and the association of adults and immature stages by rearing, five new genera were proposed for Ori- Psephenidae, the ‘water penny’ beetles, are characterized by ental taxa and a well-resolved phylogenetic tree was ob- the peculiar larval body shape (Figs 4–7). -

PREFACE The object of the present Work is to explain the manner in which the Collection of Mollusca and their shells is arranged in the British Museum, and especially to give a short account of the chief characters, derived from the animals, by which they are dis- tributed, and which it is impossible to exhibit in the Collection. The figures referred to after the names of the species, under the genera, are those given in " The Figures of Molluscous Animals, for the Use of Students, by Maria Emma Gray, 3 vols. 8vo, 1850 to 1854 ;" or when the species has been figured since the appear- ance of that work, in the original authority quoted. The concluding Part is in hand, and it is hoped will shortly appear. JOHN EDWARD GRAY. Dec. 10, 1856. ERRATA AND CORRIGENDA. Page 43.

SGMA seeks to achieve sustainability, which is defined as the absence of several undesirable results, including “depletions of interconnected surface water that have significant and unreasonable adverse impacts on beneficial users of surface water” (Water Code §10721). The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is a science-based, nonprofit organization with a mission to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. Like humans, plants and animals often rely on groundwater for survival, which is why TNC helped develop, and is now helping to implement, SGMA. Earlier this year, we launched the Groundwater Resource Hub, which is an online resource intended to help make it easier and cheaper to address environmental requirements under SGMA. As a first step in addressing when depletions might have an adverse impact, The Nature Conservancy recommends identifying the beneficial users of surface water, which include environmental users. This is a critical step, as it is impossible to define “significant and unreasonable adverse impacts” without knowing what is being impacted. To make this easy, we are providing this letter and the accompanying documents as the best available science on the freshwater species within the boundary of your groundwater sustainability agency (GSA).
