Gattolliat2 1Department of Entomology, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, 47907 U.S.A. 2Musée cantonal de zoologie, Palais de Rumine, CH-1014 Lausanne, Switzerland Based on the examination of type material, new collections, and associated life-history stages, certain species and generic concepts are revised. We recognize new synonyms for the pantropical genus Cloeodes Traver [= Potamocloeon Gillies, syn. n.; = Maliqua Lugo-Ortiz & McCafferty, syn. n.] and the following new species synonyms and new combination: C. dentatus (Kimmins), comb. n.

A species previously placed in the genus Afrobaetodes Demoulin instead belongs to Cloeodes [C. pusillus (Navás), comb. n.]. Securiops, gen. n., is established for the larvae formerly and incorrectly attributed to Potamocloeon, and this genus contains four species, including S. macafertiorum (Lugo-Ortiz), comb. n., the type species.

  • Variation in Mayfly Size at Metamorphosis As a Developmental Response to Risk of Predation
    Ecology, 82(3), 2001, pp. 740±757 q 2001 by the Ecological Society of America VARIATION IN MAYFLY SIZE AT METAMORPHOSIS AS A DEVELOPMENTAL RESPONSE TO RISK OF PREDATION BARBARA L. PECKARSKY,1,3,5 BRAD W. T AYLOR,1,3 ANGUS R. MCINTOSH,2,3 MARK A. MCPEEK,4 AND DAVID A. LYTLE1 1Department of Entomology, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853 USA 2Department of Zoology, University of Canterbury, Private Bag 4800, Christchurch, New Zealand 3Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, P.O. Box 519, Crested Butte, Colorado 81224 USA 4Department of Biological Sciences, Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire 03755 USA Abstract. Animals with complex life cycles often show large variation in the size and timing of metamorphosis in response to environmental variability. If fecundity increases with body size and large individuals are more vulnerable to predation, then organisms may not be able to optimize simultaneously size and timing of metamorphosis. The goals of this study were to measure and explain large-scale spatial and temporal patterns of phe- notypic variation in size at metamorphosis of the may¯y, Baetis bicaudatus (Baetidae), from habitats with variable levels of predation risk. Within a single high-elevation watershed in western Colorado, USA, from 1994 to 1996 we measured dry masses of mature larvae of the overwintering and summer generations of Baetis at 28 site-years in streams with and without predatory ®sh (trout). We also estimated larval growth rates and development times at 16 site-years. Patterns of spatial variation in may¯y size could not be explained by resource (algae) standing stock, competitor densities, or physical±chemical variables.

  • Gill Mobility in the Baetidae (Ephemeroptera): Results of a Short Study in Africa
    GILL MOBILITY IN THE BAETIDAE (EPHEMEROPTERA): RESULTS OF A SHORT STUDY IN AFRICA MICHAEL T. GJLLIES Whitfeld, Hamsey, Lewes, Sussex, BN8 STD, England Afroptilum was the only genus of Baetidae observed with mobile gills in African streams. Other members of the Cloeon group of genera from fast-running water, including Dicentroptilum, Rhithrocloeon, Afrobaetodes, Centroptiloides and Platycloeon had rigid gills. No gill movements were observed in any species of Baetis s.l. No structural features of the gills appeard to be correlated with this behaviour. Gill movement is seen as an adaptation by Afroptilum to lower current speeds. Mobility of the gills is thought to be the plesiomorphic state.

Stribling AND Kristen L. Pavlik Tetra Tech, Inc., 400 Red Brook Blvd., Suite 200, Owings Mills, Maryland 21117-5159 USA Susan M. Holdsworth3 Office of Wetlands, Oceans, and Watersheds, US Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Mail Code 4503T, Washington, DC 20460 USA Erik W. Leppo4 Tetra Tech, Inc., 400 Red Brook Blvd., Suite 200, Owings Mills, Maryland 21117-5159 USA Abstract. Taxonomic identifications are central to biological assessment; thus, documenting and reporting uncertainty associated with identifications is critical. The presumption that comparable results would be obtained, regardless of which or how many taxonomists were used to identify samples, lies at the core of any assessment. As part of a national survey of streams, 741 benthic macroinvertebrate samples were collected throughout the eastern USA, subsampled in laboratories to ;500 organisms/sample, and sent to taxonomists for identification and enumeration. Primary identifications were done by 25 taxonomists in 8 laboratories. For each laboratory, ;10% of the samples were randomly selected for quality control (QC) reidentification and sent to an independent taxonomist in a separate laboratory (total n ¼ 74), and the 2 sets of results were compared directly. The results of the sample-based comparisons were summarized as % taxonomic disagreement (PTD) and % difference in enumeration (PDE). Across the set of QC samples, mean values of PTD and PDE were ;21 and 2.6%, respectively.

  • New State Records of Aquatic Insects for Ohio, U.S.A
    Volume 121, Number 1, January and February 2010 75 NEW STATE RECORDS OF AQUATIC INSECTS FOR OHIO, U.S.A. (EPHEMEROPTERA, PLECOPTERA, TRICHOPTERA, COLEOPTERA)1 Michael J. Bolton2 ABSTRACT: Biomonitoring of Ohio streams by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency has found new state records for the Ephemeroptera (mayflies): Baetis brunneicolor McDunnough, Iswaeon anoka (Daggy), Paracloeodes fleeki McCafferty and Lenat, Plauditus cestus (Provonsha and McCafferty), and Rhithrogena manifesta Eaton; the Plecoptera (stoneflies): Pteronarcys cf. biloba Newman; the Trichop- tera (caddisflies): Brachycentrus numerosus (Say) and Psilotreta rufa (Hagen); and the Coleoptera (bee- tles): Gyretes sinuatus LeConte, Dicranopselaphus variegatus Horn, and Microcylloepus pusillus (Le Conte). Additional records are given for the mayfly Paracloeodes minutus (Daggy). KEY WORDS: Ohio, state record, Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera, Coleoptera The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency conducts biological and water qual- ity studies of Ohio streams to ascertain the condition of the aquatic resource. One component of these studies is an evaluation of the macroinvertebrate communities. As a result of this sampling, species of aquatic insects in the Ephemeroptera (may- flies), Plecoptera (stoneflies), Trichoptera (caddisflies), and Coleoptera (beetles) orders have been collected that have never been reported from Ohio. Randolph and McCafferty (1998) compiled the first state list of mayflies for Ohio. Gaufin (1956) produced a state list of stoneflies for Ohio with additions by Tkac and Foote (1978), Robertson (1979), and Fishbeck (1987). Listing of species distributions by state in Stewart and Stark (2002) and Stark and Armitage (2000, 2004) incorporated Ohio records found in the various revisionary publications. Huryn and Foote (1983) pro- duced the first comprehensive state list of caddisflies which was amended by Mac Lean and MacLean (1984), Usis and MacLean (1986), Garono and MacLean (1988), Usis and Foote (1989), and Keiper and Bartolotta (2003).

Here we present the first comprehensive study of Ephemeroptera in the tufa-depositing habitats of the Dinaric Karst. The study was conducted in Plitvice Lakes National Park monthly during a one-year period (2007–2008) in different types of habitats (springs, streams, mountainous rivers, tufa barriers). The aims of the study were to determine mayfly composition, abundance, spatial distribution and habitat preferences, and to examine the environmental factors important for the structuring of mayfly assemblages in Plitvice Lakes National Park. The mayfly fauna of tufa-depositing habitats was composed of 14 species (20 taxa). Water temperature, pH and ammonium concentration were the most important environmental variables explaining mayfly assemblages. Mayfly assemblages grouped according to habitat type. Generally, the most favourable habitat type was mountainous stream, tufa barriers were less favourable, and the least favourable were springs.

The mayfly (Ephemeroptera) fauna of the U.S.A. other central lowland prairie states as well state of Kansas is relatively poorly documented (McCafferty et al. 2001; 2003; Guenther and (McCafferty 2001).
