Very little information on the sawfly assemblages of Sawflies (Hymenoptera Symphyta) are Mediterranean wetlands has hitherto been an under-recorded group in Mallorca. made available. Information for the Balearic Islands largely stems from the work of Wolfgang Schedl, who collated known records from a series Methods of sources, including specimens collected by his colleagues and himself (Schedl, Study area 1987).

  • 1490 OVERVIEW of LEAF MINER FAUNA in SERBIA Jovan
    OVERVIEW OF LEAF MINER FAUNA IN SERBIA Jovan DOBROSAVLJEVIC1*, Cedomir MARKOVIC1, Stefan BOJIC2 1University of Belgrade, Faculty of Forestry, KnezaViseslava 1, 11030 Belgrade, Serbia 2University of East Sarajevo, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Forestry, VukaKaradzica 30, 71123 East Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Due to their specific lifestyle, frequency of occurrence, and the damage that they cause on plants, leaf miners have been investigated by many scientists in Serbia. Unfortunately, the overview of research on their fauna in Serbia has not been done yet. Therefore, based on the data from the literature sources and the results of our research, the first overview of leaf miner fauna research in Serbia was made. It was found that 363 species of leaf miners were ascertained in Serbia so far. They are classified as follows: 270 species from 26 families of the order Lepidoptera, 61 species from 5 families of the order Diptera, 21 species from 3 families of the order Coleoptera, and 11 species from 1 family of the order Hymenoptera. The majority of species of the order Lepidoptera belongs to the families Gracillariidae (71), Nepticulidae (61) and Coleophoridae (37), of the order Diptera to the family Agromyzidae (53), and from the order Coleoptera to the families Curculionidae (12) and Chrysomelidae (7). All species of the order Hymenoptera (11) belong to the family Tenthredinidae. Monophagous and Oligophagous species are dominant among the identified species of leaf miners in Serbia. The majority of the species (57%) develop on woody plants. Most of them (30) on the species of the genus Quercus, Prunus (20), Malus (19), and Populus (19).

This material is housed in the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, United Kingdom. The following new synonymies are proposed (valid names in parentheses): Hartigia Schiødte, 1839 (Phylloecus Newman, 1838), Cephus helleri Taschenberg, 1871 (Phylloecus faunus Newman, 1838) and Euura gallae Newman, 1837 (Euura mucronata (Hartig, 1837)). The type species of Euura Newman, 1837 and Euura subgenus Gemmura E. L. Smith, 1968 belong to the same taxonomic species, Euura mucronata (Hartig, 1837), so that these genus group names become new synonyms. Lectotypes are desig- nated for Phyllotoma tormentillae Healy, 1868, Fenusa ianthe Newman, 1837, Fenusa parviceps Newman, 1837, Selandria pallida Newman, 1837 and Phylloecus faunus Newman, 1838.

    SCOTTISH INVERTEBRATE SPECIES KNOWLEDGE DOSSIER Hymenoptera: Symphyta (Sawflies) A. NUMBER OF SPECIES IN UK: 527 B. NUMBER OF SPECIES IN SCOTLAND: 401 (including 1 introduced) C. EXPERT CONTACTS Please contact [email protected] for details. D. SPECIES OF CONSERVATION CONCERN Listed species None – insufficient data. Other species Amauronematus abnormis . An arctic species known from only two sites in the Cairngorms Plateau. The host plant, Salix herbacea is widespread, and so the limiting factor is almost certainly climatic. A. abnormis requires very cold climatic conditions that ensure snow patches lie until late summer. This species is likely to be effected by warming climatic conditions. No other species are known to be of conservation concern based upon the limited information available. Conservation status will be more thoroughly assessed as more information is gathered. Host plants Many species of sawfly are monophagous, with several high altitude speces relying on single Salix species such as S. arbuscula , S. lapponum and S, myrsinites , which have suffered serious declines in range and density since recording began 150 years ago. These declines have probably been caused by increased grazing pressure. In many cases, the rarity of the sawfly is therefore already determined by the rarity of its host plant. 1 E.

Keywords: Hymenoptera, Symphyta, Keszthely Hills, Hungary, rare species Introduction Keszthely Hills is the westernmost member of the Transdanubian Mountains. It is built of dolomite, and enriched with limestone formations. The basalt formations of Kovácsi Hill and Tátika-region are the results of the volcanic activity. The other part of the inves- tigated area is the coastal region of Lake Balaton. This region is mainly moorland and wet meadows which were originally part of the lake-bed and turned dry as a result of the water management in the 19th century. The vegetation is abundant from the sub-Mediterranean xerotherm steppes, through closed oak and beech forests to cold gorges that preserve glacial remains.
