The Epicortical Beetle Assemblages in an Australian Subtropical Rainforest
Eur. J. Entomol. 101: 251–259, 2004 ISSN 1210-5759 Host specificity or habitat structure? – The epicortical beetle assemblages in an Australian subtropical rainforest FLORIAN MENZEL1, 2, ROGER L. KITCHING1 and SARAH L. BOULTER1 1Australian School of Environmental Studies, Griffith University, Nathan, Queensland 4207, Australia; e-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Animal Ecology and Tropical Biology, Biozentrum Am Hubland, Julius-Maximilian’s University, 97074 Würzburg, Germany Key words. Coleoptera, alpha diversity, bark, rainforest, Australia Abstract. We have investigated the relative importance of bark roughness and host tree species in determining the diversity and make-up of coleopteran assemblages on the trunks of trees in sub-tropical rainforest in south-east Queensland, Australia. There are clear, statistically significant, patterns in the composition of the assemblages which reflect bark roughness. Rougher bark had associ- ated greater species and family richness, a higher proportion of “rare” species, a higher value for Shannon diversity and lower values for the Simpson and Berger-Parker Index (measures of dominance within the sample). The data support strongly the idea that there is a bark-specific beetle assemblage. The rougher bark was associated with significantly greater numbers of an anobiid species, Dorca- toma sp., and of the latridiid species Aridius australicus. Rougher bark also harboured significantly larger species. The most likely explanation for this seems to be related to the physical heterogeneity and biological complexity of the habitat, presenting, as it does, greater opportunities for shelter, feeding specialisation and intra-species aggregation. Rougher bark contained a higher proportion of both predatory and xylophagous groups than did smoother categories. -

World Heritage and Associative Natural Values of the Central Eastern Rainforest Reserves of Australia
WORLD HERITAGE AND ASSOCIATIVE NATURAL VALUES OF THE CENTRAL EASTERN RAINFOREST RESERVES OF AUSTRALIA R. John Hunter NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service Originally published June 2003 Revised December 2004 i By channels of coolness the echoes are calling And down the dim gorge I hear the creek falling It lives in the mountains where mosses and sedges Touch with their beauty the bank and the ledges Through breaks in the cedar and sycamore bowers Struggles the light that is sweet to the flowers; And softer than slumber and sweeter than singing, The notes of the bell-birds are running and ringing. ‘Bellbirds’ by Henry Kendall ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report reviews the World Heritage values of the Central Eastern Rainforest Reserves of Australia (CERRA) World Heritage Area. The assessment of World Heritage values is based on the criteria for World Heritage listing. CERRA was inscribed on the World Heritage list as a site with outstanding universal significance in terms of its natural heritage. The property satisfied three of the four possible criteria for the listing of a natural property. The criteria for World Heritage listing have changed since the listing of CERRA, but this has little effect on this review because the changes generally amount to a re-arrangement of themes within the criteria for which the property is listed. This review identifies attributes, which demonstrate the values under each criterion. Threats to these attributes are identified and the condition of integrity is assessed. World Heritage values Criterion (i): ‘be outstanding examples representing major stages of Earth’s history, including the record of life, significant on-going geological processes in the development of landforms, or significant geomorphic or physiographic features.’ Values related to this criterion and key attributes supporting these values are as follows. -

Acariformes, Oribatida) Del Mundo (1758-2002)
Graellsia, 60(número extraordinario): 3-305 (2004) LISTADO SISTEMÁTICO, SINONÍMICO Y BIOGEOGRÁFICO DE LOS ÁCAROS ORIBÁTIDOS (ACARIFORMES, ORIBATIDA) DEL MUNDO (1758-2002) L. S. Subías* RESUMEN Se elabora por primera vez un listado mundial de ácaros oribátidos y en él se relacionan sistemática- mente las cerca de 9.000 especies (y subespecies) válidas hasta ahora descritas con sus correspondientes sinonimias, más de un millar, las cuales se agrupan en 1.204 géneros (y subgéneros), también con sus sinonimias reconocidas, pertenecientes a 169 familias. Para cada una de ellas se aporta su distribución geográfica actualmente conocida (alrededor de 3.200 especies paleárticas, 1.500 etiópicas, 1.500 neotro- picales, 1.400 orientales, 1.200 neárticas, 1.000 australianas y 100 antárticas), y lo mismo se hace para cada género y familia. Se han realizado numerosas modificaciones sistemáticas y nomenclaturales desta- cando la creación de las nuevas familias Cerocepheidae y Ametroproctidae, de los nuevos géneros Multimaudheimia y Perezinigokalumma y de los nuevos subgéneros Malaconothrus (Cristonothrus) y Oribatella (Multoribatella). Además se ha dado el nuevo nombre genérico de Paschoalia para Hammeriella Paschoal, 1898, nombre ya utilizado por Balogh, 1983, así como 83 nuevos nombres espe- cíficos y subespecíficos para otros tantos casos de homonimias que han surgido en la realización del lis- tado. Se reivindica y generaliza el uso del subgénero como una categoría taxonómica de gran utilidad y, en cambio, sólo se ha utilizado la categoría de subfamilia dentro de la extensa familia de los Oppiidae, la cual agrupa 13 subfamilias y 166 géneros (y subgéneros) válidos que incluyen unas 1.000 especies des- critas.
