Wegen einer schlimmen Aug-enkrankheit, die schliesslich eine beinahe vollstandige Blindheit verursacht hat, ist es dern Verfasser unmoglich gewesen, die Korrektur vorliegender Arbeit befriedigend zu besorgen Infolge dessen ist eine ziemlich grosse Anzahl von IDruck- fehlern, die meisten jedoch ghicklicherweise nicht von besonders missleitender Art, in den Text hineingeseblichen. Die meisten grdssere-n Druckfehler sind unten berichtigt worden; man bittet den Leser dieselben vor dem Gebrauch der Arbeit gefalligst zu beachten. In den Absolmitten HI und III sind die Speziesnamen der nach Personen henannten Arten loider bald mit grossen, bald mnit kieinem Anfangsbuchstate gedruckt worden; diese Tnkonsequenz hAungt davon ab, dass die betreffenden Korrekturen von verschiedenen Korrekturlesern besorgt worden sind.

Um diese so vollstandig wie moglich zu sam- melin, habe ich nicht nur die grdsserein systematischen Arbeiten -wie auctt die zablreichen Lokal- faunen genau studiert, sondern auch die kieinsten Notizen fiber die Olkologie der palaarkti- schen ielmipteren in den Verhandlungen der entomologischen und zoologischen Gesellscbs(If- ten und in den Zeitschriften, so viel mir nur mitglhifh gewesen Ist, aufgesucht. Ich publiziere bier ein ATerzeichnis aller Publikationen, die, ich fur meiltien Zweck benutzt babe, auch wenil sie nichts fiber die Coniferen-bewohlnenden Arten enthalten.

  • Providing a Base for Conservation of True Bugs (Insecta, Heteroptera) and Their Saline Habitats in Vojvodina (Northern Serbia)
    Short Note Hyla VOL. 2016., No.1, pp. 19- 23 ISSN: 1848-2007 Šeat et al. Providing a base for conservation of true bugs (Insecta, Heteroptera) and their saline habitats in Vojvodina (northern Serbia) 1 1,2 1 1,2 JELENA ŠEAT , BOJANA NADAŽDIN , MARIJA CVETKOVIĆ , ALEKSANDRA JOVANOV , 1,2 & IVAN TOT 1 HabiProt, Bulevar Oslobođenja 106/34, 11040 Belgrade, Serbia; e-mail: [email protected] 2 SRSBES “Josif Pančić”, Trg Dositeja Obradovića 2, 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia Abstract Saline habitats of the Pannonian region are recognised as conservation priorities by EU legislation, and represent rare semi-natural habitats in mostly agricultural lowland of northern Serbia. Saline habitats have a key role in conservation of numerous plant and animal species in Vojvodina, as well as characteristic communities of true bugs. These insects belong to one of the most diverse insect groups in saline habitats. Species Henestaris halophilus (BURMEISTER, 1835), Conostethus hungaricus WAGNER, 1941 and Solenoxyphus fuscovenosus (FIEBER, 1864) are saline specialists and can be found only in these habitat types. True bugs have great qualities for future biomonitoring projects concerning habitats such as saline grasslands and wetlands. During the study, species Hydrometra gracilenta HORVÁTH, 1899 and Solenoxyphus fuscovenosus (FIEBER, 1864) are recorded for the first time in Serbia. Key words: Hemiptera, salt steppes, salt marshes, alkaline lakes, Pannonian plain Saline or halophitic habitats in Serbia are floods in spring (BOROS, 2003; TÖRÖK ET AL., 2011), are mostly situated in the northern part of the country, in apparently not favourable for many groups of insects, Vojvodina Province, and these habitats are listed among but the true bugs are among the most abundant and the the priority habitats by the Annex I of the EU Habitat most diverse insects in them.

E-mail: [email protected] 2Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle (Paris), Département Systématique et Evolution, Entomologie, 4 square Saint-Marsal, F-66100 Perpignan, France 1Corresponding author Abstract The Cicadetta montana species complex includes six cicada species from the West-Palaearctic region. Based on acoustic diagnostic characters, a seventh species Cicadetta cantilatrix sp. nov. belonging to the complex is described. The type- locality is in France but the species distribution area extends to Poland, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Mace- donia and Montenegro. The calling song sequence consists of two phrases with different echemes. This calling pattern clearly differs from those produced by all other members of the complex, including C. cerdaniensis, previously mistaken with the new species. This description increases the acoustic diversity observed within a single cicada genus and sup- ports the hypothesis that sound communication may play a central role in speciation. Key words: Cryptic species, bioacoustics, Cicadidae, Cicadetta, geographic distribution, France Introduction Some biodiversity is not obvious when looking at preserved specimens. Various species do not differ in their morphology, but drastically in their behaviour. Such sibling, or cryptic, species are particularly evident in insects that produce sound to communicate: they look similar but sing differently.

  • HOST PLANTS of SOME STERNORRHYNCHA (Phytophthires) in NETHERLANDS NEW GUINEA (Homoptera)
    Pacific Insects 4 (1) : 119-120 January 31, 1962 HOST PLANTS OF SOME STERNORRHYNCHA (Phytophthires) IN NETHERLANDS NEW GUINEA (Homoptera) By R. T. Simon Thomas DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC AFFAIRS, HOLLANDIA In this paper, I list 15 hostplants of some Phytophthires of Netherlands New Guinea. Families, genera within the families and species within the genera are mentioned in alpha­ betical order. The genera and the specific names of the insects are printed in bold-face type, those of the plants are in italics. The locality, where the insects were found, is printed after the host plants.

  • Štys P. the Stridulatory Mechanism in Centrocoris Spiniger (F.)
    ACTA ENTOMOLOGICA MUSEI NATIONALIS PRAGAE 1 9 6 1, X X X I V, 59 2 !--- THE STRIDULATORY MECHANISM IN CENTROCORIS SPINIGER (F.) AND SOME OTHER CQREIDAE (HETEROPTERA) PAVEL STYS (Chair of Systematic Zoology, Charles University, Praha) Introduction · Leston (1957) has summarized the knowledge of stridulatory mecha- . nisms in terrestrial species of Heteroptera. The ability to stridulate was ascertained in 11 terrestrial families of bugs, and 14 types of stridulatory organs have already been registered. In a number of groups (Acanthoso­ midae, some subfamilies of Pentatomidae, Coreidae) the ability to stridu­ late was ascertained, but the stridulatory mechanisms have not yet been discovered. It follows from the Leston's summary that the ability to stridulate was alreadyregistered in 3 genera of the family Coreidae: Phyllomorpha Lap., Spathocera Stein and Centrocoris Kolen. However, the stridulatory mechanism is still not known in any of these genera*). Saunders (1893) had noticed that Centrocoris spiniger (Fabricius, 1781) "stridulates loudly", but he did not give more particulars. During my excursion to the western coast of the Caucasus in June 1960 I had an opportunity to collect the mentioned species, to observe its stridulation and to discover its stridulatory meC1hanism. Field observations Centrocoris spiniger (F.) is very common insect on the western coast of the Caucasus. In the period 21st to 28th June 1960 I found it many times (also in copula) in several places near the towns Tuapse and Sochi, always associated with its host-plant Anthemis tinctoria L. (det. V. Ska­ licky). I failed to hear stridulation of the free specimens on the plants.

  • In Alpinen Wald-Ökosystemen Südtirols Auf Den Dauerbeobachtungsflächen IT01 Ritten Und IT02 Montiggl Im Jahre 2006
    forest observer vol.4 2008 249 - 292 Biomonitoring der Zikadenfauna (Auchenorrhyncha) in alpinen Wald-Ökosystemen Südtirols auf den Dauerbeobachtungsflächen IT01 Ritten und IT02 Montiggl im Jahre 2006 Michael Carl Abstract Ecological assessment in alpine forest ecosystems: Biomonitoring of and bioindication by the leafhopper-fauna (Auchenorrhyncha) at monitoring sites in northern Italy Concerning leafhopper communities the Ritten (IT01) and Montiggl (IT02) have become one of the most intensively explored mountain massifs of South Tyrol. From 1996 to 2006 more than 4900 individuals out of 81 species were collected. The use of leafhoppers as a management tool for monitoring status and change in forest ecosystems is critically evaluated. The fauna of both sites is dominated by a characteristic set of partially strongly specialized species. Species turnover as well as evaluation of precipitation and temperature of the monitoring sites show a strong reaction of the leafhopper communities on effects probably caused by climate change. Keywords: Leafhoppers, Auchenorrhyncha, species communities, mountaineous forests, climate change, Alps, Italy 1 Einleitung 1.1 Veranlassung und Fragestellung Seit einigen Jahren haben durch verschiedenste Individuenzahl in Grünland‑ und Waldhabitaten Forschungsprojekte die Zikaden (Insecta, Auchenor‑ vor und besiedeln deren gesamte dreidimensionale rhyncha) eine wachsende Bedeutung für die Bioin‑ Struktur von der Wurzel bis zur Baumspitze.
