Coleoptera from the Middle-Upper Eocene European Ambers: Generic Composition, Zoogeography and Climatic Implications

ALEKSEEV Department of Zootechny, Kaliningrad State Technical University, Sovetsky Avenue 1. 236000, Kaliningrad, Russia. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The paper contains a review of coleopteran genera known from Baltic, Bitterfeld and Rovno amber localities. Altogether 420 genera (191 extinct and 229 extant) from 78 families are listed from these three Lagerstätten (as of 7 March 2017). The listed beetles were analyzed zoogeographically and distributional maps for 72 genera were compiled. One-quarter (56) of the genera that have survived since the Eocene have cosmopolitan ranges at present; 35 extant genera have been extripated from the Palaearctic since the Eocene. Approximately 40% of beetle genera from the middle-upper Eocene Eu- ropean ambers can be encountered in the wild in present-day Europe, while 5 of these genera are supposed to be European relict endemics originating in Fennosarmatia. The general similarity of the Baltic amber (s.l.) beetle assemblage to modern south Palaearctic fauna is the strongest, the Nearctic elements are more numerous in the middle-upper Eocene European ambers than the Oriental taxa. The simplified Mutual Climatic Range (MCR) method was used for palaeoclimate recon- struction based on fossil beetles. The coleopteran assemblage of Baltic amber is interpreted as indicative of warm temper- ate, humid, equable climate with reduced thermal seasonality [annual average temperatures range from +10–20˚C; mean of the coldest month temperatures around +10˚C; mean of the hottest month temperature around +20–24˚C; annual pre- cipitation around 750–1500 mm]. -

INTEODUCTION. RECENTLY a number of investigators have paid a great deal of attention to the study of the intracellular micro-organisms occurring in insects. The coleopterous species so far known to harbour such micro-organisms are given in table I. In all the cases where intracellular micro-organisms occur, the mode of transmission from one generation of the host to the next ensures the infection of all the eggs. This infection takes place at different developmental stages of the egg in the different families. In the Curculionidae it takes place in the oocyte stage (Mansour, 1930), in the Cucujidae it occurs just TABLE I. Food Material. Intracellular Micro- Author. Family. Species. Larva. Adult. organisms.

ARTHROPODA Subphylum Hexapoda Protura, Springtails, Diplura, and Insects

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000). -

Ernobius kadleci sp. nov. (Ernobius nigrinus species-group) from Cyprus is described and compared with similar species. INTRODUCTION In the last year I have described two new Cyprian species from the genus Ernobius C. G. Thomson, 1859, and I gave a key to all six Ernobius species from Cyprus including both new species (Zahradník 2013). Now I treated some other material, where I found a further new Ernobius species from Cyprus. TAXONOMY Ernobius kadleci sp. nov. (Figs. 1-3) Type material. Holotype (♂): Cyprus, Akamas peninsula, 5 km W of Latsi, 1.-10.iv.2000, S. Kadlec lgt., (PZPC). Paratypes (2 ♂♂, 4 ♀♀): the same data as holotype, (PZPC). Description. Male (holotype). Lengthily elongate-elliptical, transversally slightly convex, body length 2.9 mm, the greatest width 1.1 mm. Ratio elytra length : elytra width of 1.8. Yellowish-brown, including antennae, palpi and legs. Head slightly convex, shining with two types of punctures - the first ones very fine and dense, almost touching each other, the second ones umbilicate, coarse and also dense, distance between punctures the same as their diameter. -
Two New Ernobius Species from Cyprus (Coleoptera: Bostrichoidea: Ptinidae)
Studies and Reports Taxonomical Series 9 (2): 583-590, 2013 Two new Ernobius species from Cyprus (Coleoptera: Bostrichoidea: Ptinidae) Petr ZAHRADNÍK Department of Forest Protection and Entomology, Faculty of Forestry and Wood Sciences, Czech University of Life Sciences, Kamýcká 1176, CZ-165 21, Prague 6 - Suchdol, Czech Republic e-mail: [email protected] Taxonomy, new species, Coleoptera, Ptinidae, Ernobius, Cyprus, Palaearctic Region Abstract. Ptinidae are represented by 55 species in Cyprus, from which are four Ernobius species - Ernobius cupressi Chobaut, 1899, E. madoni Pic, 1930 (endemic to Cyprus), E. oertzeni Schilsky, 1900 and E. pini pini (Sturm, 1837). Two new species from genus Ernobius C. G. Thomson, 1859 are described here: E. benedikti sp. nov. and E. cyprogenius sp. nov. INTRODUCTION The Ptinid fauna of Cyprus has still insufficiently been explored. Lists of Ptinidae of Cyprus contain total of 55 species (Borowski 2007; Zahradník 2007), but findings of other Mediterranean species are more than probable (including findings of species new to science). The biggest part of Ptinidae of Cyprus constitutes subfamily Ptininae (21 species), followed by subfamilies Xyletininae (11 species), Anobiinae (7 species), Dorcatominae (6 species), Ernobiinae (5 species), Gibbinae and Dryophilinae (both 2 species) and Eucradinae (1 species). Only one endemic species is known from Cyprus - Ernobius madoni Pic, 1930. Genus Ernobius Thomson, 1859 has been represented in the Holarctic Region by about 80 species divided into 6 species groups (Johnson 1975). A few species were introduced into other regions, too. In the Palaearctic Region, it is represented by 50 species. There are 4 species know from Cyprus, 3 species are also known from Greece and Turkey. -
Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.
