With about 250 species, the genus Blaps Fabricius, 1775 is one of the most diverse genera of darkling beetles (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae: Tenebrioninae: Blaptini: Blaptina). In this study, we provide new insights on the evolutionary relationships of Blaps species using a combined molecular and morphological dataset encompassing 69 distinct Blaps species and subspecies (105 specimens in total, all belonging to the subgenus Blaps), four other representatives of the tribe Blaptini (from the subtribes Gnaptorina, Gnaptorinina and Prosodina) and 12 outgroup species. -

RÉPONSE DES COLÉOPTÈRES SAPROXYLIQUES À L’HÉTÉROGÉNÉITÉ DES SUBÉRAIES DANS LE MASSIF DES MAURES (FRANCE) Antoine BRIN*1& Hervé BRUSTEL* SUMMARY. — Saproxylic beetles’ response to cork-oak forests heterogeneity in the Massif des Maures (France). — Cork-oak stands are a major component of the “Massif des Maures” forests (France, Var). Depend- ing on fi re frequency, soil conditions and human uses, these forests present different forms. Even if Mediter- ranean landscapes have been shaped for a long time by fi re, such recurrent perturbation may affect several functional groups of organisms associated with old forests, such as saproxylics insects. Our aims were (i) to investigate species richness and composition of saproxylic beetle assemblages in different cork-oak stands, (ii) to estimate between stand complementarity and (iii) identify indicator species of each habitat. Three different types of cork-oak stands common in the “Massif des Maures”, representing an increasing gradient of canopy closing and ecosystem maturing, were investigated : a senescent stand associated with mature maquis, an adult stand with high maquis and an open adult stand with low maquis. Beetles were sampled from April to August in 2003 and 2004 using baited window traps. Our results showed that : (i) the three studied cork-oak stands can be considered as three different habitats regarding saproxylic beetle assemblages, (ii) the closed cork-oak stands support the highest cumulative species richness, (iii) abundances of ecological groups show signifi cant between- stands differences, (iv) each habitat supports remarkable species from a patrimonial point of view. RÉSUMÉ. — La subéraie est l’une des principales formations forestières du massif des Maures. -

Biogeography of Tenebrionid Beetles (Coleoptera

Biogeography, Coleoptera, Tenebrionidae, Mediterranean, Pleistocene, Sicily, species-area relationship Abstract. The tenebrionid beetles on 25 circum-Sicilian islands were studied to determine the influence of island geographical and landscape features on three main intercorrelated biogeographical patterns: (1) species richness, studied using species-area and spe- cies environment relationships, (2) species assemblage composition, investigated using Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA), and (3) inter-site faunal similarity, investigated using Canonical Correlation Analysis (CANCOR) applied to multidimensional scaling of inter-island faunal dissimilarities. Species richness was mostly influenced by island area and landscape heterogeneity (expressed using various indices of diversity based on land cover categories). When species identities were considered in the CCA, no substantial effect of landscape was detected. Current island isolation did not have a strong influence on species richness, but has a distinct effect in determining species assortments on the remotest islands. Historical influences of Pleistocene landbridge connections were not detectable in species richness relationships using geographical variables in species richness analyses or in assemblage gra- dients in the CCA, but emerged distinctly from inter-island similarities in the CANCOR. -
