The author gives a survey on the occurrence of gall wasps in the two Regional Provinces of South Tyrol and Trentino, respectively. The main treatment relates to the typical gall formations of the single species that are described and, for the most part, illustrated. In all, 151 species are treated; of these, 103 species are recorded from the Region: 73 species occur in South Tyrol and 76 species in Trentino (Tab. 2). In addition, some 50 species are indicated in order to evaluate further possible presences in South Tyrol-Trentino. The material primarily is based on the evaluation and re-elaboration of older published references, like the 16 records of species mentioned by DALLA TORRE (1892-1896) in Cecidien Tirols, as well as BEZZI (1899: Cecidiologia Trentina) and CO B ELLI (1903: Imenotteri del Trentino) with 24 species on the area of Trentino (Tab. 1). To this are added subsequent records for 12 species from South Tyrol given by HELLRIGL (1984, 1997): Ibalia leucospoides, Andricus caputmedusae, A. fecundator, A. inflator, A. kollari, A. quercustozae, Biorhiza pallida, Cynips quercusfolii, Diplolepis rosae, Isocolus scabiosae, Neuroterus numismalis, N. quercusbaccarum. During the last 5 years, 2004-2008, the Author employed extensive, carefully directed investigations on Cynipidae galls in South Tyrol and Trentino, which resulted in many new findings and more than a doubled the number of recorded species for the whole Region from 41 to the present 103 species. Besides, some 4,500 specimens of galls where measured and their registered dimensions illustrated graphically (Graphics 1-9). Included in the investigations were also two regional forestry areas of an international "Integrated Monitoring-Programm" with the sites of "Quercetum pubescentis" in Montiggl (IT-02) near Kaltern/Caldaro (BZ) and in Pomarolo (IT-04) near Rovereto (TN), respectively. Ten species, formerly recorded only by DALLA TORRE (1892-96): Andricus ostreus, Andricus solitarius, Cynips agama, Cynips cornifex, Cynips quercus, Diplolepis mayri, Diplolepis spinosissimae, Liposthenes glechomae, Trigonaspis synaspis, Synergus physoceras – were confirmed by recent findings. Another 48 species were newly recorded for South Tyrol: Andricus aries, A. burgundus, A. callidoma, A. conglomeratus, A. coriarius, A. corruptrix, A. curvator, A. glandulae, (A. globuli), A. infectorius, A. legitimus, A. lignicolus, A. paradoxus, A. polycerus, A. pseudoinflator, A. quercuscalicis, A. quercusradicis, A. quercusramuli, Aulacidea hieracii, Aylax minor, Aylax papaveris, Ceroptres claviconis, Cynips disticha, Diastrophus rubi, Diplolepis eglanteriae, Dryocosmus kuriphilus, Neuroterus albipes, N. aprilinus, N. tricolor, Pseudoneuroterus macropterus, Phanacis hypochoeridis, Periclistus brandtii, Synergus apicalis, S. clandestinus, S. crassicornis, S. gallaepomiformis, S. hayneanus, S. pallicornis, S. pallipes (= albipes, nervosus), S. reinhardi, S. thaumacerus, S. umbraculus, Xestophanes potentillae, plus another six parasitic Figitidae. 52 species were newly recorded for Trentino: Andricus amblycerus, A. amenti (= giraudianus), A. caliciformis, A. caputmedusae, A. conglomeratus, A. conificus, A. coriarius, A. corruptrix, A. cydoniae, A. fecundator, A. galeatus, A. gallaeurnaeformis, A. gemmeus, A. grossulariae (=A. mayri + panteli), A. infectorius, A. inflator (= globuli), A. lignicolus, A. lucidus (=aestivalis), A. multiplicatus, A. polycerus, A. quercustozae, A. seckendorffi, A. solitarius, A. truncicolus, Aphelonyx cerricola, Aylax minor, Callirhytis glandium, C. rufescens, Cynips agama, C. cornifex, C. quercus, Dryocosmus kuriphilus, Neuroterus albipes, N. anthracinus, N. aprilinus, N. minutulus, N. numismalis, N. saliens, N. tricolor, Pseudoneuroterus macropterus, Plagiotrochus australis, Synophrus politus, Trigonaspis synaspis, Ceroptres cerri, Ceroptres clavicornis, Synergus apicalis, S. hayneanus, S. pallicornis, S. pallidipennis, S. pallipes, S. thaumacerus, S. umbraculus. Formerly 24 species had been recorded for each of the Provinces of Trentino and Bozen-South Tyrol. The present investigation enabled a triplication of the number of species recorded, reaching 76 species in Trentino, and 73 species in South Tyrol (cfr. Tab. 2). Of considerable importance for the larger richness of Oak-gallwasp species in Trentino is the wide-spread presence in that Province of Turkey oak (Quercus cerris), which is the natural sexual-generation host for many Oak-gallwasp species, whereas this host is almost absent in South Tyrol.

Tab. 3). 3 1 Einleitung Die Cynipoidea bilden eine artenreiche Überfami- Zu den Cynipidae und den von ihnen bzw. ihren lie, die neben phytophagen Erregern und Inquilinen Larven hervorgerufenen Gallenbildungen an ver- von Pflanzengallen auch zahlreiche zoophage Pa- schiedenen Pflanzen (bei deutlicher Bevorzugung rasitoiden umfaßt.

  • Ants Inhabiting Oak Cynipid Galls in Hungary

    Ants Inhabiting Oak Cynipid Galls in Hungary

    North-Western Journal of Zoology 2020, vol.16 (1) - Correspondence: Notes 95 Ants inhabiting oak Cynipid galls in Hungary Oaks are known to harbour extremely rich insect communi- ties, among them more than 100 species of gall wasps (Hy- menoptera: Cynipidae) in Europe (Csóka et al. 2005, Melika 2006). Some gall wasp species are able to induce large and structurally complex galls that can sometimes be abundant on oaks, providing attractive shelters for several arthropod taxa including ant species. Ants are among the most important players in many ecosystems and they are also considered to act as ecosystem engineers (Folgarait, 1998). They are also famous for having ecological or physical interactions with a great variety of other organisms, such as gall wasps. Ants are known to tend Figure 1. Inner structure of the asexual Andricus quercustozae gall in- aphid colonies on the developing galls and, as general pred- habited by ants. ators, they prey on arthropods approaching the protected aphid colonies. Some oak cynipid galls secrete honeydew on their surface. This sweet substrate attracts ants and, in re- turn, the ants protect the galls from predators and parasi- toids (Abe, 1988, 1992; Inouye & Agrawal 2004; Nicholls, 2017). Beyond this obvious ecological interaction between gall wasps and ants, this association continues after the gall wasp’s life cycle has ceased. Certain galls are known to serve as either temporary or permanent shelter for many ant species. Some galls (e.g. An- dricus hungaricus (Hartig), Andricus quercustozae (Bosc), Aphelonyx cerricola (Giraud)) are large enough even for re- productive ant colonies. The advantages of galls as nesting logs are multifaceted.

Bechtold* Abstract Lectotypes for twelve of Mayr's cynipid gall wasp species (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae: Cynipinae) are desi- gnated. From twenty cynipid gall wasp species, described by Mayr, seven have already been synonymized, and thirteen species are still valid. Andricus insana (WESTWOOD, 1837) syn.n. is a new synonym of Andricus quercustozae (Bosc, 1792). Key words: Cynipidae, gall wasps, Hymenoptera, lectotype designation, Gustav Mayr, new synonymy, taxonomy. Zusammenfassung Lectotypen für zwölf der von Mayr beschriebenen Gallwespenarten (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae: Cynipinae) werden designiert. Mayr hat zwanzig Gallwespenarten beschrieben, davon sind sieben bereits synonymi- siert worden, dreizehn Arten sind noch gültig. Andricus insana (WESTWOOD, 1837) syn.n. ist ein neues Synonym von Andricus quercustozae (Bosc, 1792). Introduction Gustav Mayr, a famous Austrian entomologist, described eleven genera of gall inducing Cynipidae and twenty species from twelve genera (Hymenoptera: Cynipoidea). Seven of them have already been synonymized, while thirteen species are still valid. However, he never designated types for his newly described species. All the specimens are syn- or cotypes and usually these specimens were marked with "Type" or even not so.

The galls support species-rich, closed communities of inquilines and parasitoids that have become a model system in community ecology. We review recent advances in the ecology of oak cynipids, with particular emphasis on life cycle characteristics and the dynamics of the interactions between host plants, gall wasps, and natural enemies. We assess the importance of gall traits in structuring oak cynipid communities and summarize the evidence for bottom-up and top-down effects across trophic levels.

Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2016) 12:47 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0118-7 RESEARCH Open Access Folk knowledge of invertebrates in Central Europe - folk taxonomy, nomenclature, medicinal and other uses, folklore, and nature conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3 Abstract Background: There is scarce information about European folk knowledge of wild invertebrate fauna. We have documented such folk knowledge in three regions, in Romania, Slovakia and Croatia. We provide a list of folk taxa, and discuss folk biological classification and nomenclature, salient features, uses, related proverbs and sayings, and conservation. Methods: We collected data among Hungarian-speaking people practising small-scale, traditional agriculture. We studied “all” invertebrate species (species groups) potentially occurring in the vicinity of the settlements. We used photos, held semi-structured interviews, and conducted picture sorting. Results: We documented 208 invertebrate folk taxa. Many species were known which have, to our knowledge, no economic significance. 36 % of the species were known to at least half of the informants. Knowledge reliability was high, although informants were sometimes prone to exaggeration. 93 % of folk taxa had their own individual names, and 90 % of the taxa were embedded in the folk taxonomy. Twenty four species were of direct use to humans (4 medicinal, 5 consumed, 11 as bait, 2 as playthings). Completely new was the discovery that the honey stomachs of black-coloured carpenter bees (Xylocopa violacea, X. valga)were consumed. 30 taxa were associated with a proverb or used for weather forecasting, or predicting harvests. Conscious ideas about conserving invertebrates only occurred with a few taxa, but informants would generally refrain from harming firebugs (Pyrrhocoris apterus), field crickets (Gryllus campestris) and most butterflies.

Cynips quercusfolii is an oak gall wasp species distributed across the western Palearctic region. In this study, C. quercusfolii adults were used to investigate the possible effects of past climatic fl uctuations and topography on the genetic structure of this species in Turkey. For this, the partial mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome b gene (cyt b) and nuclear DNA (nDNA) ITS2 region of 294 individuals from 38 populations covering the distribution of this species in Turkey were sequenced. The sequences generated 125 mtDNA haplotypes and 30 nDNA alleles. High variation was revealed in Turkish populations of C. quercusfolii (h = 0.7328 and π = 0.0102 for cyt b, and h = 0.5865 and π = 0.0058 for ITS2). Demographic analyses and high haplotype versus low nucleotide diversity indicated that C. quercusfolii populations might have undergone a series of expansions and contractions in the past. Phylogenetic analyses showed that this species is structured geographically between east and west due to a major physical barrier, the Anatolian Diagonal. Furthermore, divergence times of the lineages implied that deep splits oc- curred before the Pleistocene, while intermediate to shallow splits were associated with climatic changes during the Pleistocene.

Oak gallwasps of Ukraine (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae, Cynipini). – G eorge Melika – Cynipid gallwasps (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) comprise 1 , 364 species worldwide, predominantly in temperate regions of the Holarctic. The vast majority of recorded species are from the Nearctic and the Western Palaearcti c. The most species - rich tribe is the oak gallwasps (Cynipini) with 158 described species from the Western Palaearctic, which from 116 species are known from Europe. In the present paper we summarise the current knowledge of oak gallwasps (Cynipini) of Ukr aine, and list a total of 79 species.
