2007: An assessment of the invertebrates of several Shropshire quarries – Boardman P.J, Cheeseborough I.P. & Jones N.P SUMMARY

 During the summer period of 2006 the authors surveyed 20 quarries in Shropshire for invertebrates belonging to the following orders; true flies (diptera), aculeate hymenoptera (bees, wasps and ants), butterflies and moths (lepidoptera), and various smaller orders (woodlice, land molluscs, grasshoppers and crickets, and dragonflies).

 The quarries were a mixture of active and non-active, with a variety of geologies, and ranged throughout the county.

 A total of 2268 invertebrate records of 701 species were recorded. Of these, 106 species were noted as of importance in a national, regional or county basis. 6 were Red Data Book (or equivalent) species, 60 were Nationally Scarce, 10 were UK BAP priority, Species of Conservation Concern or candidate Species of Conservation Concern. Shropshire BAP species were represented with 6 species, whilst 61 further species were noted as restricted, uncommon or local in status.

 Red Data Book species recorded were; spider-hunting wasp Anoplius caviventris (Very Rare or RDB1 equivalent) from Morville Quarry, shore fly Scatella crassicosta (RDB2) from Dolgoch Quarry, flesh fly Macronychia polydon (RDB3) from Morville Quarry, solitary bee Nomada integra (Rare or RDB3) from Underhill Quarry, solitary bee Sphecodes niger (Very Rare of RDB2 or RDB3), and hoverfly Rhingia rostrata (RDB3) from Maddox Coppice.

 An important assemblage of species was discovered at Morville Quarry, with a total of 55 species of aculeate hymenoptera recorded, including 5 new species to the county. It should be noted that this assemblage only includes species from the summer and late summer period over 4 visits, and therefore further visits in the spring would show the site to be one of the more important sites in the county for aculeate hymenoptera. Using the Archer Index score of quality for aculeate hymenoptera, Morville Quarry scored 165 on only 4 visits. This compares to the score of 173 attained by The Cliffe, an area of lowland heathland in North Shropshire, recorded over 20 or so visits in recent years by the authors. Alongside of this assemblage at Morville was a variety of flies that are parasitic on various stages of aculeate hymenoptera, including the RDB3 flesh fly Macronychia polydon.

 The first breeding population of scarce blue-tailed damselfly Ischnura pumilio for the county was discovered at Titterstone Clee. Remarkably the colony was quite large, with around 50 adults counted when first discovered.

 New populations of several regionally important butterflies were identified, including a previously unknown site for grizzled skipper in the Oswestry Hills.

 Several species were recorded at their first Shropshire stations including a number of aculeate hymenoptera, hoverflies and parasitic flies.

 Several migrant species of moth were recorded during the survey. These included hummingbird hawk-moth, silver Y, scarce bordered straw, rush veneer and dark sward-grass.

ii Introduction

During 2006 invertebrate survey work was commissioned by Dan Wrench, Biodiversity Officer for Shropshire County Council, on a number of quarry sites in Shropshire (VC 40). Sites chosen were a mixture of working, non-working, part-restored and restored quarries on limestone, sands and gravels, dolerite and quartzite geology.

A survey brief was put together drawing up existing knowledge of three particular groups of invertebrates (lepidoptera, aculeate hymenoptera and diptera) as well as making reference to a recent report by the author that focussed upon Red Data Book (RDB) invertebrates of Shropshire (Boardman 2005). A list of target species was drawn up made up of United Kingdom Biodiversity Action Plan (UK BAP), Local Biodiversity Action Plan (LBAP), Red Data Book (RDB), Nationally Scarce and priority targets listed nationally and regionally by Butterfly Conservation (Joy xxxx and Asher et al 200x) that could potentially be found on target sites.

Quarries in the county (particularly those working quarries) are known to have had few ecologically studies carried out, and yet those previously visited by entomologists are known to be of some importance. A number of the former limestone quarries within the Oswestry Hills are owned by the Shropshire Wildlife Trust have had some entomological work done, particularly studies of butterflies and moths.

It was therefore anticipated that those quarries visited during 2006 would offer some interest.

Methodology

Survey work began in spring 2006 on a number of quarries in Shropshire. Access permissions were sought from landowners with help from Dan Wrench and other parties for the author and associated entomologists; Ian Cheeseborough and Nigel Jones to visit at appropriate times over the year.

Risk assessments were carried out for each quarry and those deemed to hold specific risks were surveyed by at least two recorders. On some occasions this meant that other people helped out to ensure health and safety onsite. Some landowners required entomologists to attend a site safety briefing (examples were Llynclys Quarry and Clee Hill Quarry), whilst some landowners required the wearing of high visibility safety clothing and hard hats.

Generally survey methodologies consisted of targeting suitable habitat within a site, rather than sampling in a more quantitative or repeatable way due to the different challenges that each site presented. Daytime survey visits were carried out to search for the majority of occasions however night time moth trapping was employed at a number of sites to adequately survey the moth fauna. Standard equipment such as Heath and UV moth traps were used. Extra care was taken on sites at night due to the obvious dangers quarries can pose.

Orders of invertebrates focussed upon were lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), diptera (true flies), and aculeate hymenoptera (bees, wasps and ants). Where possible other orders such as mollusca (land snails), hemiptera (bugs), orthoptera (grasshoppers and crickets), odonata (dragonflies and damselflies), and isopoda (woodlice) were recorded. Coleoptera (beetles) were noted in part, particularly ladybirds, long-horn beetles and a few other species but certainly not in any representative manner.

Results

In total 20 quarries were visited during the survey period by the survey team. They were Alderbury, Clee Hill, Cound, Dhustone, Dolgoch, Eardington Plant, Harton Hollow, Hilton Sandpit, Llynclys Common, Llynclys Quarry, Maddox Coppice, Morville Quarry, Nils Hill, Poles Coppice, Roman Bank, Shadwell Quarry, Titterstone Clee, Treen Pits, Treflach, Underhill and Wern ddu. Further records of lepidoptera were received from Kate Thorne (who was carrying out botanical survey work at Blodwell, Carreg-y-big, Coneyburg Wood, Craig-llwyn, Crickheath, Cynynion and Mousecroft.

In total some 2268 records were put together of 701 species of invertebrate during the survey (including Kate Thorne’s records).

Table 1 – Number of species recorded per quarry

A total of 106 species deemed to be of a Red Data Book category (or equivalent) endangered, rare, scarce, UKBAP, Species of Conservation Concern, LBAP, local or restricted to a habitat were encountered. It should be noted that some species cover more than one category, such as scarce and a UK BAP species. A summary list of these species can be found in Appendix I, whilst these species are listed individually under each quarry assessment. Table 2 lists the status and numbers of the most important species recorded during this project.

New sites for the West Midlands Priority Species butterflies small pearl-bordered fritillary, grizzled skipper, dingy skipper, grayling and white-letter hairstreak were noted and the 1st confirmed breeding location for the scarce blue-tailed damselfly in Shropshire was discovered.

Quarry Assessments (in alphabetic order)

The important species found at each quarry are listed below. These include the species referred to by status in Table 1, new species to Shropshire, and those species recorded from few other site and are therefore considered uncommon in the county. This is then followed by a brief list of any attributes deemed important to these species on each site.

Alderbury Quarry

Important species records;

 Chorisops nagatomii Bright Four-spined Legionnaire (Diptera: Soldierfly; Nationally Scarce)  Thaumastoptera calceata (Diptera: Cranefly; Nationally Scarce)  Brachylimnophila brunneus (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 1st Shropshire record)  Craniophora ligustri Coronet (Lepidoptera: Moth; 3rd modern Shropshire record)  Gonomyia dentata (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 4 Shropshire records)

Alderbury quarry was found to be mostly shaded, with mature tree growth covering most of the former areas of quarry faces. The most important features for invertebrates were noted as the areas of carr and wetland margin. The nationally scarce soldierfly Chorisops nagatomii is known to be associated with calcareous fen (Stubbs & Drake 2001) and is likely to breed in peaty soils associated with one of the water margins at the site. The nationally scarce cranefly Thaumastoptera calceata is associated with mud around limestone seepages. It was taken at a moth trap by the authors and is only the 3rd Shropshire record of the fly. The occurrence of Gonomyia dentata is particularly interesting as it was also recorded at the site by Cyril Pugh in 1929 (Boardman in prep). Pugh also recorded the Nationally Scarce cranefly Dactylolabis sexmaculata from Alderbury during the same period. This fly is associated with limestone seepages. Unfortunately it was not recorded this time but further searches may turn up the species.

Clee Hill Quarry

Important species records;

 Boloria selene Small pearl-bordered Fritillary (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP Species of Conservation Concern)  Tetanocera punctifrons (Diptera: Snail-killing fly; Nationally Scarce)  Dicranota claripennis (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 5 Shropshire sites)  Sepedon sphegea (Diptera: Snail-killing fly, Local)

Small pearl-bordered fritillary was found at one of the flushes adjacent to the working quarry. These flushes are probably the most important feature at the site for invertebrates. Occasionally the flushes pool up, or the flow is interrupted. These areas are of particular importance. Marsh violets, the larval foodplant for small pearl-bordered fritillary, were seen growing in some of these areas. This habitat is also important for the Nationally Scarce snail- killing fly Tetranocera punctifrons. Records are mainly southern and from near running water. In Europe is it generally known as a montane species. The more local snail-killing fly Sepedon sphegea is associated with open habitats near marshes and ponds.

Cound Quarry

Important species records;

 Sphecodes niger (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; RDB3, 4 Shropshire sites)  Andrena apicata (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Scarce, 13 Shropshire sites)  Andrena bimaculata (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Scarce, 4 Shropshire sites)  Andrena labiata (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Scarce, 10 Shropshire sites)  Arachnospila minutula (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Spider-hunting wasp; Scarce. 1st Shropshire site)  Bombus rupestris (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Bumblebee; Scarce 22 Shropshire sites)  Diodontus tristus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Digger Wasp; Scarce)  Cerceris rybyensis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Restricted)  Diodontus luperus (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Solitary wasp; 1st Shropshire record)  Diodontus minutus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Digger wasp; 2nd Shropshire record)  Epeolus variegatus (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Solitary bee; 2nd Shropshire record)  Tachyspex pompiliformis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Spider-hunting wasp; 6 Shropshire sites.  Phasia obesa (Diptera: Parasitic fly; Local)  Thecoptera atra (Diptera: Thick-headed fly; Local)

Cound old sand quarry is of particular importance for aculeate hymenoptera due to the nesting potential for solitary bees and wasps. Banks are compacted and southerly-facing, and sparsely vegetated, making them particularly attractive nesting sites. The site is mostly sheltered by a woodland fringe and hosts a variety of nectar plants including hawthorn, rose, blackthorn, gorse and sallow. Sallow is of vital importance for the solitary bee Andrena apicata and so should be retained wherever possible. The solitary bee A. labiata, found at the site is found at species of speedwells, and so these are therefore an important botanical feature at the site. The wasp Cerceris rybyensis is only found in sandy areas where it hunts other bees. Other species were found at the site that are associated with light, open, sunny and sheltered conditions such as the solitary bee A. bimaculata and the spider-hunting wasp Arachnospila minutula. Including work done previously, a total of 56 species of aculeate hymenoptera have been recorded from this site. The best studied site for aculeate assemblages in the county is The Cliffe (Boardman & Cheeseborough 200x & Cheeseborough pers comm.). A total of 120 species have been recorded here over several years intensive fieldwork. The Archer scale of site importance for aculeate hymenoptera (reference) scores each site relative to the number of very rare, rare, scarce, restricted, widespread or universal species recorded. The Cliffe scores a total of xxx using this system (Cheeseborough pers comm.), and we can use this figure to assess comparative sites in the county. Cound scores and Archer index score of xxx, and as such ranks as one of the more important Shropshire sites for aculeate hymenoptera. Though secondary for diptera, two interesting species were encountered. The parasitic fly Phasia obesa is widespread but quite scarce, the biology of the fly is unknown but the rest of the genera parasitize Hemiptera. Also encountered was the uncommon thick-headed fly Thecoptera atra. This fly is known to be parasitic upon bees of the Halictus genera (H. rubicundus & H. tumulorum were recorded here).

Dhustone Quarry

Important species records: none

Dhustone Quarry was included in the wider Clee Hill assessment, though a few records were made at the pond here.

Dolgoch Quarry

Important species records:

 Scatella crassicosta (Diptera: Shore fly; RDB2)  Bombus rupestris (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Bumblebee; Scarce 22 Shropshire sites)  Cryptocephalus bipunctatus (Coleoptera: Leaf Beetle; Nationally Scarce)  Monosapyga clavicornis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary wasp; Nationally Scarce, 3 Shropshire sites)  Pyrgus malvae Grizzled Skipper (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP candidate Species of Conservation Concern, West Midlands priority species)  Callophrys rubi Green Hairstreak (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; West Midlands priority species)  Bicellaria spuria (Diptera: Hybotidae; Uncommon  Campsicnemus pusillus (Diptera: Long-legged Fly; Uncommon)  Cryptocephalus hypochaeridis (Coleoptera: Leaf beetle; Uncommon)  Euthycera fumigata (Diptera: Snail-killing fly, Local)  Medetera flavipes (Diptera: Long-legged fly; Local but uncommon)  Oropezella sphenoptera (Diptera: Hybotidae, Local)  Sepedon sphegea (Diptera: Snail-killing fly, Local)

Dolgoch quarry is an old limestone quarry managed by The Shropshire Wildlife Trust. Its limestone flora is important for butterflies and other invertebrates including aculeate hymenoptera and some quite restricted diptera. The rare shorefly (Epiphydridae) Scatella crassicosta was found here. This Red Data Book species is mostly coastal and the biology is unknown, however related species have larvae feeding from algae and detritus in ponds. A number of other flies associated with damp, or calcareous grassland were recorded including the local species Campsicnemus pusillus, Herina frondescentiae, H. lugubris, H. nigrina, Medetera flavipes & M. saxatilis, Oropozella sphenoptera and Sepedon sphegea. Past survey work by the authors found the large tabanid fly Tabanus sudeticus adjacent to the sheltered pond at this site. The solitary bee Monosapyga clavicornis is not connected geologically to the site, rather it is a cleptoparasite of dead-wood nesting bees. Therefore dead-wood should also be noted as an important feature at this site. Two uncommon leaf beetles were found at the site. Cryptocephalus bipunctatus is associated with hazel, birch and oak, whilst C. hypochaeridis is associated with hawkweeds in calcareous situations and is considered rare in England and Wales. The authors would like to thank Chris Felton of Liverpool Museum for his determination of C. hypochaeridis.

Eardington Plant Quarry

Important species records;

 Cheilosia cyanocephala (Diptera: Hoverfly; Nationally Scarce, 1st Shropshire record)  Hylaeus signatus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Nationally Scarce, 4 Shropshire sites)  Nomada flavopicta (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Nationally Scarce, 3 Shropshire sites)  Cerceris rybyensis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Digger wasp; Restricted)  Silver-washed Fritillary (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP Species of Conservation Concern)  Adonia variegata Adonis Ladybird (Coleoptera: Ladybird; Local)  Antocha vitripennis (Diptera: cranefly: Local, 6 Shropshire sites)  Phasia barbifrons (Diptera: Parasitic fly; Local, 1st Shropshire record)  Phasia obesa (Diptera: Parasitic fly; Local)  Phasia pusilla (Diptera: Parasitic fly; Local)  Philantus triangulum (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Bee Wolf; 5 Shropshire sites)  Symplecta hybrida (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 3rd Shropshire record)  Thecoptera atra (Diptera: Thick-headed fly; Local)  Platycnemis pennipes White-legged Damselfly, Local)

Eardington Plant sand quarry combined a number of interesting habitats and as such is quite a valuable site for invertebrates. There are sheltered areas of nectar sources, wet sand and pond, and the site is adjacent to the river corridor of the Severn. A new nationally scarce hoverfly to the county was recorded, Cheilosia cynocephala is widespread but uncommon in the south and most frequent at thistles on calcareous habitats. The nationally scare solitary bee Hylaeus signatus was found here. It is associated with weld and wild mignonette. The Shropshire quarries project has led to more information being known about the distribution of this species as before the survey it was only known from a single location in the county. Survey work in 2006 at the quarries sites added a further three locations including Eardington Plant. The nationally scarce bee Nomada flavopicta was found at its third Shropshire site. The bee is a cleptoparasite of the bee Melitta leporina. This bee wasn’t recorded during the survey but can be assumed to occur here. It is generally widespread on sandy soils in southern England but is uncommon in Shropshire with only three recorded locations. The Adonis Ladybird was recorded here at an unusual location. The ladybird isn’t usually associated with sandy habitats. A good assemblage of parasitic flies was found including Phasia barbifrons. This was the 1st Shropshire record and the species is known to be moving northwards. The local wetland cranefly Symplecta hybrida was found at the pond edge amongst Juncus over wet sand. A singleton silver-washed fritillary was noted nectaring at the site. It is most probable that this species was merely visiting the site and not breeding. A white-legged damselfly was recorded here. This species is local in the county and associated with river corridors.

Harton Hollow

Important species records:

 Dolichopus wahlbergi (Diptera: Long-legged fly; Local)  Callomyia speciosa (Diptera: Flat-footed fly; Local)  Euthycera fumigata (Diptera: Snail-killing fly, Local)

Harton Hollow is a small, old limestone quarry along Wenlock Edge. The site is shaded by adjacent woodland and aspect, limiting its invertebrate interest somewhat. Three species of fly, all known to prefer damp locations were the highlights of a rather ordinary species list.

Hilton Sandpit

Important species records;

 Sphecodes niger (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; RDB3)  Bombus rupestris (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Bumblebee; Scarce 22 Shropshire sites)  Hylaeus signatus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Nationally Scarce)  Ammophila sabulosa (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Spider-hunting wasp; 2nd Shropshire record)  Machimus cingulatus Brown Heath Robberfly (Diptera: Robberfly; Local)  Philantus triangulum (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Bee Wolf; 5 Shropshire sites)

Hilton Sandpit is an old sand quarry with lots of scrub, and mature trees; however some open sandy banks are retained. It is noticeable more stony than either Cound or Morville sand quarries. It is grazed by horses. Dead wood is an important feature at the site. Despite less survey time than some of the other sites Hilton Sandpit produced a number of important species including the rare bees Sphecodes niger, Hylaeus signatus (associated with weld and wild mignonette), and only the second county record of the spider-hunting wasp Ammophila sabulosa. The brown heath robberfly, Machimus cingulatus was found here. It is decidedly local within the West Midlands region.

Llynclys Common

Important species records;

 Eumerus ornatus (Diptera: Hoverfly; Nationally Scarce (Species Action Plan priority species, 1st Shropshire record).  Eupodes bucculatus Form Y (Stubbs & Falk 2002) (Diptera: Hoverfly; Nationally Scarce, 1st Shropshire record)  Andrena bimaculata (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Scarce, 4 Shropshire sites)  Omalus puncticolis (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Cuckoo wasp; Scarce)  Priocnemis susterai (Aculeate Hymenoptera :Spider-hunting wasp; Scarce)  Boloria selene Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP Species of Conservation Concern), West Midlands priority species.  Argynnis paphia Silver-washed Fritillary (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP Species of Conservation Concern)  Pyrgus malvae Grizzled Skipper (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP candidate Species of Conservation Concern, West Midlands priority species),  Satyrium w-album White-letter Hairstreak (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; West Midlands priority species)  Callophrys rubi Green Hairstreak (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; West Midlands priority species)  Abia candens (Hymenoptera: Sawfly; Local)  Dicranomyia sericata (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 7 Shropshire sites – restricted to calcareous soils)  Erioptera squalida (Diptera: Cranefly, 2nd Shropshire site)  Empis concolor (Diptera: Dance fly; Local)  Euthycera fumigata (Diptera: Snail-killing fly, Local)  Hybomitra distinguenda (Diptera: Horsefly; Local  Oropezella sphenoptera (Diptera: Hybotidae, Local)  Oxycera nigricornis Delicate Soldier (Diptera: Soldierfly; Local)

Llynclys Common is a mixture of old limestone quarry, hazel coppice, scrub, pond and limestone grassland managed by the Shropshire Wildlife Trust. The area surveyed was restricted to the quarries at Upper Butcher’s and Lower Butcher’s with the adjacent woodland and grassland within the Ant Hill Meadow. A good variety of interesting species were recorded including two new hoverflies to Shropshire. Results were quite similar to the adjacent Dolgoch Quarry, suggesting these sites and Underhill offer a good deal of invertebrate interest within the Oswestry Hills network of sites. The sawfly Abia candens was recorded. It is noted as of local status, however has apparently declined greatly in recent years. The authors would like to thank Guy Knight of Liverpool Museum for confirming the identification of this species and supplying information on it.

Llynclys Quarry

Important species records;

 Andrena labiata (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Scarce, 10 Shropshire sites)  Pyrgus malvae Grizzled Skipper (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP candidate Species of Conservation Concern, West Midlands priority species)  Erynnis tages Dingy Skipper (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP candidate Species of Conservation Concern, West Midlands priority species).  Andrena similis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary Bee; formerly Scarce, now widespread but only 5th Shropshire record.  Dicranomyia sericata (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 7 Shropshire sites – restricted to calcareous soils)

Llynclys working quarry was surveyed by the authors as part of this survey and also for Butterfly Conservation (Boardman, 2006) to look the distribution of the grizzled skipper butterfly. It was found to be very common with a timed count indicating 52 grizzled skipper in an hour. This equates to an index of 299 over the suitable habitat within the site as a whole. The nationally scarce solitary bee Andrena labiata was recorded here. This species is associated with speedwells. Also recorded was A. similis. This solitary bee is associated with legumes such as birdsfoot trefoil, and whilst formerly nationally scarce, has recently been downgraded to widespread. There are 5 sites only in Shropshire.

Maddox Coppice

Important species records;

 Rhingia rostrata (Diptera: Hoverfly; RDB3)  Bombus rupestris (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Bumblebee; Scarce 22 Shropshire sites)  Eupodes (Lapposyrphus) species A (Diptera: Hoverfly; Nationally Scarce)  Sphegina verecunda (Diptera: Hoverfly; Nationally Scarce)  Lasiommata megera Wall Brown (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; West Midlands priority species)  Campsicnemus pusillus (Diptera: Long-legged Fly; Uncommon)  Criorhina berberina (Diptera: Hoverfly; Local)  Empis (Pachymeria) scotica (Diptera: Dance fly; Local)  Oswaldia muscaria (Diptera: Parasitic fly; Local)  Phasia hemiptera (Diptera: Parasitic fly; Local)

Maddox Coppice is part of the larger woodland site of Eastridge Wood. A number of the species recorded here are representative of various woodland attributes, woodland rides, dappled shade or woodland streams.

Morville Quarry

Important species records;

 Anoplius caviventris (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Spider-hunting wasp; Very Rare (equivalent RDB1))  Macronychia polydon (Diptera: Flesh fly; RDB3)  Sphecodes niger (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee;RDB3, 4 Shropshire sites)  Andrena bimaculata (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Scarce, 4 Shropshire sites)  Arachnospila minutula (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Spider-hunting wasp; Scarce. 2nd Shropshire site)  Cerceris rybyensis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Restricted)  Diodontus tristus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Digger wasp; Scarce)  Nomada fulvicornis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Scarce, 1st Shropshire record)  Nysson dimidiatus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary wasp; Scarce, 2nd Shropshire site)  Hylaeus signatus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Nationally Scarce)  Satyrium w-album White-letter Hairstreak (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; West Midlands priority species)  Grayling (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; West Midlands priority species)  Ammophila sabulosa (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Spider-hunting wasp; 1st Shropshire record)  Anoplius infuscatus (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Spider-hunting wasp; 1st Shropshire record)  Colletes fodiens (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Solitary bee; 1st Shropshire record)  Corizus hyoscyami (Hemiptera: Bug; Local)  Dolichopus longicornis (Diptera: Long-legged fly; Local)  Epeolus variegates (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Solitary bee; 3rd Shropshire record)  Leptogaster cylindrica (Diptera: Robberfly; Local)  Machimus cingulatus Brown Heath Robberfly (Diptera: Robberfly; Local)  Metopia argocephala (Diptera: Flesh fly; Local)  Phasia hemiptera (Diptera: Parasitic fly; Local)  Philantus triangulum (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Bee Wolf; 5 Shropshire sites)  Physiphora alceae (Diptera: Picture-winged fly; Local)  Scellus notatus (Diptera: Long-legged fly; Local)  Senotainia conica (Diptera: Flesh fly; Local)  Tachyspex pompiliformis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Spider-hunting wasp; 6 Shropshire sites

Morville sand quarry was the unexpected find of the quarry project and has been found to be of particular importance for invertebrates. Foremost amongst them is the assemblage of aculeate hymenoptera which stands at 50 species after only four visits from mid-July onwards. It would be anticipated that with a sufficient number of recording visits to this site the assemblage of aculeates would reach at least 80 and therefore mark one of the most important county sites for this group. With the current list of 50 species the Archer index score for site quality stands at xxx. The very rare spider-hunting wasp Anoplius caviventris was recorded. It was formerly classed as nationally scarce but has seemingly declined through its range and now occurs in less than 15 sites in the UK. Rather interestingly sand quarry habitat is not typical of the wasp. Other records come from meadows, marshes, heaths and open areas in woods. The nationally scarce solitary bee Nomada fulvicornis was recorded here at its first Shropshire location. This bee is a cleptoparasite of the nationally scarce Andrena bimaculata (also recorded here). Another nationally scarce bee is Nysson dimidiatus. It is associated with solitary wasps, here at only its second Shropshire site. Another three species occur here at their first Shropshire location; the spider-hunting wasps Ammophila sabulosa and, Anoplius infuscatus, plus the solitary bee Colletes fodiens. As with the other sand quarry sites it is the availability of nesting opportunities, mixed with the shelter and aspect, plus the nectar availability that makes this site so special for aculeates. Also there is locally available dead wood in the form of elm (the living part of the trees housed white-letter hairstreak). Where large numbers of aculeates are found, predators of aculeates will also be found. Three species of diptera associated with aculeates were recorded including the Red Data Book Machronychia polydon. This fly is associated with Crossocerus and Ectemnius wasps. The two more local flies were Metopia argrocephala and Senotainia conica, both associated with solitary bees and wasps. The local red and black bug Corizus hyoscami was found. It is mostly a coastal species and its foodplant is often storksbill. Two local robberflies were found, Machimus cingulatus and Leptogaster cylindrica. The former species is more uncommon within the West Midlands region.

 Bombus rupestris (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Bumblebee; Nationally scarce 22 Shropshire sites)  Antocha vitripennis (Diptera: cranefly: Local, 6 Shropshire sites)  Campsicnemus pusillus (Diptera: Long-legged Fly; Uncommon)  Dolichopus wahlbergi (Diptera: Long-legged fly; Local)  Medetera flavipes (Diptera: Long-legged fly; Local but uncommon)  Oplodontha viridula (Diptera: Soldierfly; Local)  Sybistroma discipes (Diptera: Long-legged Fly; Uncommon  Tetranocera arrogans (Diptera: Snail-killing fly; Local)

Nils Hill Quarry is a scrubby, grassy place that is sheltered with some aspects south-facing. Most species of interest were associated with the damp lush wetland fringe on the western boundary of the site.

Poles Coppice

Important species records;

Note: This site was surveyed in detail by Liverpool Museum (NMGM) (Judd 1998) and therefore was not surveyed in more than a casual way with a single visit.

 Conops strigata (Diptera: Thick-headed fly; Nationally Scarce; 2nd Shropshire record)

Roman Bank Quarry

Important species records:

 Limonia nigropunctata (Diptera: Cranefly; Local – restricted to calcareous soils)  Tipula signata (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 2nd Shropshire record)

This site is quite similar to Harton Hollow in habitat type. Little of importance was recorded here.

Shadwell Quarry

Important species records:

 Coremacera marginata (Diptera: Snail-killing fly; Local)  Scellus notatus (Diptera: Long-legged fly; Local)  Thecoptera atra (Diptera: Thick-headed fly; Local)

A large limestone quarry along Wenlock Edge, Shadwell Quarry is perhaps better known for its Wenlockian fossil assemblages than its insect assemblages.

Titterstone Clee Quarry

Important species records;

 Ischnura pumilio Scarce Blue-tailed Damselfly (Odonata: Dragonfly; Nationally Scarce & 1st confirmed breeding population in the county).  Lasiommata megera Wall Brown (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; West Midlands priority species)  Myrmeleotettix maculatus (Orthoptera: Grasshopper; Local)

The most important area of the quarry identified by survey work was the seepage on the flat part of the old quarry at SOxxxxxx. This was the habitat of the breeding colony of Scarce Blue-tailed Damselfly that was discovered on xx/xx/06 by Ian Cheeseborough. The general habitat is particularly reminiscent of habitats used by the species and also the Southern Damselfly Coenagrion mercuriale in their Welsh habitats. The seepage was constant, even at the height of the summer drought, suggesting it more or less is constant and has been for some time. The rather local mottled grasshopper Myrmeleotettix maculatus was found here.

Treen Pits Quarry

Important species records:

 Machimus cingulatus Brown Heath Robberfly (Diptera: Robberfly; Local)  Tiphia minuta (Aculeate Hymenoptera; Solitary wasp; 5th Shropshire record)

Treen Pits is old quarry and farmland located close to Clee Hill. Few species of interest were found during survey work here.

Treflach Quarry

Important species records:

 Sphecodes ferruginatus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Nationally Scarce, 1st Shropshire site)  Stratiomys potamida Banded General (Diptera: Soldierfly; Nationally Scarce)  Pyrgus malvae Grizzled Skipper (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP candidate Species of Conservation Concern, West Midlands priority species)  Pupilla muscorum Moss Chrysalis Snail (Mollusca: Snail, Local but restricted to calcareous soils in the south)

Probably the most interesting record from this site was the discovery of grizzled skipper. This is a new record for this butterfly here. The site is comprised of various levels, with ponds, scrub, woodland, and more open areas. It was one such open area where a small colony of several individual grizzled skippers was recorded. The nationally scarce solitary bee Sphecodes ferruginatus was recorded here at its first Shropshire location. The bee is a cleptoparasite of Lasioglossum bees. The widespread soldierfly Stratiomys potamida was found. This fly is found at pond margins, in carr woodland and also at umbellifers.

Underhill Quarry

Important species records;

 Nomada integra (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Rare (equivalent RDB3), 2nd Shropshire record)  Agrotis cinerea Light-feathered Rustic (Lepidoptera: Moth; Nationally Scarce)  Andrena humilis (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Scarce, 5 Shropshire sites)  Discoloxia blomeri Blomer’s Rivulet (Lepidoptera: moth; Nationally Scarce)  Melecta albifrons (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Restricted, 1st Shropshire site)  Sphecodes crassus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Nationally Scarce, 5 Shropshire sites)  Sphecodes ferruginatus (Aculeate Hymenoptera: Solitary bee; Nationally Scarce, 2nd Shropshire record)  Erynnis tages Dingy Skipper (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP candidate Species of Conservation Concern, West Midlands priority species)  Boloria selene Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; UK BAP Species of Conservation Concern)  Satyrium w-album White-letter Hairstreak (Lepidoptera: Butterfly; West Midlands priority species)  Dicranomyia sericata (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 7 Shropshire sites – restricted to calcareous soils)  Molophilus undulatus (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 8 Shropshire sites)

This site is another in the assemblage of limestone quarries in the Oswestry Hills. Several interesting solitary bees were recorded in the open part of the quarry, including the rare Nomada integra at its 2nd Shropshire location. This bee is a cleptoparasite of Andrena humilis, a nationally scarce bee that is associated with composites in grassland and woodland edge. The solitary bee Melecta albifrons was recorded from its first Shropshire location. Two nationally scarce moths were recorded, the priority species Light-feathered Rustic, which is associated with thyme, mostly in coastal locations but has been recorded in quarries previously, and Blomer’s Rivulet, a moth associated with wych elm.

Wern-ddu

Important species records;

 Dactylolabis transversa (Diptera: Cranefly; Nationally Scarce)  Dicranomyia sericata (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 7 Shropshire sites)  Gonomyia simplex (Diptera: Cranefly; Local, 4 Shropshire records)

This limestone quarry, adjacent to the Craig Sychtyn Shropshire Wildlife Trust was found to be mostly sheltered limestone quarry face, or more open sheep-grazed grassland. The three species of interest were all recorded close to the limestone quarry face at seepages. Rather surprisingly Dactylolabis transversa was recorded here. This species is not usually found at limestone, instead the similar Dactylolabis sexmaculata usually is – but the specimen taken was most certainly D. transversa.

Introduction Risk assessments were carried out for each

During 2006 invertebrate survey work was quarry and those deemed to hold specific risks commissioned by Dan Wrench, Biodiversity were surveyed by at least two recorders. On Officer for Shropshire County Council, on a some occasions this meant that other people number of quarry sites in Shropshire (VC 40). helped out to ensure health and safety onsite. Sites chosen were a mixture of working, non- Some landowners required entomologists to working, part-restored and restored quarries on attend a site safety briefing (examples were limestone, sands and gravels, dolerite and Llynclys Quarry and Clee Hill Quarry), whilst quartzite geology. some landowners required the wearing of high visibility safety clothing and hard hats. A survey brief was put together drawing up existing knowledge of three particular groups Generally survey methodologies consisted of of invertebrates (lepidoptera, aculeate targeting suitable habitat within a site, rather hymenoptera and diptera) as well as making than sampling in a more quantitative or reference to a recent report by the author that repeatable way due to the different challenges focussed upon Red Data Book (RDB) that each site presented.

Orders of invertebrates focussed upon were Quarries in the county (particularly those lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), diptera working quarries) are known to have had few (true flies), and aculeate hymenoptera (bees, ecologically studies carried out, and yet those wasps and ants). Where possible other orders previously visited by entomologists are known such as mollusca (land snails), hemiptera to be of some importance. A number of the (bugs), orthoptera (grasshoppers and crickets), former limestone quarries within the Oswestry odonata (dragonflies and damselflies), and Hills are owned by the Shropshire Wildlife isopoda (woodlice) were recorded. Coleoptera Trust have had some entomological work done, (beetles) were noted in part, particularly particularly studies of butterflies and moths. ladybirds, long-horn beetles and a few other species but certainly not in any representative It was therefore anticipated that those quarries manner. visited during 2006 would offer some interest.

Survey work at Morville Quarry in 2006 only commenced in mid-summer 2006 and so the whole of the spring period, and therefore associated spring bee fauna were missed. Survey work of some of the other sites that were unable to be accessed during 2006 due to time pressures and delays in access permissions would no doubt turn up further interesting finds.

Management Work

Management work could be an important tool to maintain and enhance habitats at the various quarry sites for invertebrates. Most of the sites surveyed were open habitats, and the retention of this and associated sheltered, bare ground is a major requirement of many of the species recorded. Tree cover, particularly secondary woodland should be avoided for the majority of
