Materials on Latvian Eumolpinae Hope, 1840 (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae). Acta Biol. Univ. Daugavp., 10 (2): 107 -114. Faunal, phenological and bibliographical information on Latvian Eumolpinae are presented in the current paper. Bibliographycal analysis on this leaf-beetles subfamily in Latvia is made for the first time. An annotated list of Latvian Eumolpinae including 4 species of 3 genera is given.

Subsequently, more than 15 works were published. Scarce faunal The subfamily Eumolpinae Hope, 1840 includes records can also be found in following other more than 500 genera and 7000 species distributed articles (Lindberg 1932; Pūtele 1974, 1981a; mainly in the tropics and subtropics (Jolivet & Stiprais 1977; Rūtenberga 1992; Barševskis 1993, Verma 2008). Of them, 11 species of 6 genera are 1997; Telnov & Kalniņš 2003; Telnov et al. 2006, known from eastern Europe (Bieńkowski 2004), 2010; Bukejs & Telnov 2007). and only 4 species of 3 genera – from Fennoscandia and Baltiae (Silfverberg 2004). Imagoes of Eumolpinae feed on leaves of host plants; larvae occur in the soil, feed on In Latvian fauna, 3 genera and 4 species of underground parts of plants; pupate in the soil Eumolpinae are known. In adjacent territories, the (Bieńkowski 2004). number of registered Eumolpinae species slightly varies: Belarus – 5 species are recorded (Lopatin The aim of the current work is to summarize & Nesterova 2005), Estonia – 3 species information on Eumolpinae in Latvia. -

(1) The survival of peripheral populations is often threatened, especially in a changing environment. Furthermore, such populations frequently show adaptations to local conditions which, in turn, may enhance the ability of a species to adapt to changing environmental conditions. In conservation biology, peripheral populations are therefore of particular interest. (2) In northern Switzerland and southern Germany, Libelloides coccajus is an example of such a peripheral species. (3) Assuming that suitable oviposition sites are crucial to its long-term survival, we compared oviposition sites and adjacent control plots with regard to structure and composition of the vegetation. (4) Vegetation structure at and around oviposition sites seems to follow fairly stringent rules leading to at least two benefits for the egg clutches: (i) reduced risk of contact with adjacent plants, avoiding delayed drying after rainfall or morning dew and (ii) reduced shading and therefore higher temperatures. -

Abstract: Critical catalogue of Latvian leaf-beetles (Megalopodidae, Orsodacnidae & Chrysomelidae) is presented. In the current work all available bibliography on Latvian leaf-beetles are reviewed and analyzed. In total, 326 species are confirmed from Latvia till now, although few of them are known from the old records only, and their occurrence in the local fauna should be confirmed by new material. All doubtful species recorded till now from Latvia are commented and removed from the list. Key words: Coleoptera, Megalopodidae, Orsodacnidae, Chrysomelidae, Latvia, fauna, bibliography, catalogue.

Many Flea Beetles are among the most affective jumpers in the animal kingdom, sometimes better than their namesakes the true Fleas (Siphonaptera). However, despite some intensive study of the anatomy and function of the metafemoral spring (Barth, 1954; Ker, 1977) the true function of this jumping mechanism remains a mystery. It probably is some sort of voluntary Catch, in- volving build-up of tension from the large muscles that insert on the metafemoral spring (Fig. 1), and theo a quick release of this energy. Ofcourse some Flea Beetles jump better than others, but basically all have this internal metafemoral spring floating by attachment from large muscles in the relatively enlarged bind femoral capsule (see Fig. 1 ). In fact Flea Beetles can usually be easily separated from other beetles, including chrysomelid subfa- milies, by their greatly swollen bind femora. There are a few genera of Alticinae that have a metafemoral spring and yet do not jump. Actually there are a few genera that are considered to be Alticinae that lack the metafemo- ral spring, e. g. Orthaltica (Scherer, 1974, 1981b - as discussed in this Symposium). Also the tribe Decarthrocerini contains three genera from Africa that Wilcox (1965) con- sidered as Galerucinae, but now thinks to be intermediate between Galerucinae and Alti- cinae; at least one of these genera does have a metafemoral spring (Wilcox, personal communication, and Fürth, unpublished data). -
Temporal Lags and Overlap in the Diversification of Weevils and Flowering Plants
Temporal lags and overlap in the diversification of weevils and flowering plants Duane D. McKennaa,1, Andrea S. Sequeirab, Adriana E. Marvaldic, and Brian D. Farrella aDepartment of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138; bDepartment of Biological Sciences, Wellesley College, Wellesley, MA 02481; and cInstituto Argentino de Investigaciones de Zonas Aridas, Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Te´cnicas, C.C. 507, 5500 Mendoza, Argentina Edited by May R. Berenbaum, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL, and approved March 3, 2009 (received for review October 22, 2008) The extraordinary diversity of herbivorous beetles is usually at- tributed to coevolution with angiosperms. However, the degree and nature of contemporaneity in beetle and angiosperm diversi- fication remain unclear. Here we present a large-scale molecular phylogeny for weevils (herbivorous beetles in the superfamily Curculionoidea), one of the most diverse lineages of insects, based on Ϸ8 kilobases of DNA sequence data from a worldwide sample including all families and subfamilies. Estimated divergence times derived from the combined molecular and fossil data indicate diversification into most families occurred on gymnosperms in the Jurassic, beginning Ϸ166 Ma. Subsequent colonization of early crown-group angiosperms occurred during the Early Cretaceous, but this alone evidently did not lead to an immediate and ma- jor diversification event in weevils. Comparative trends in weevil diversification and angiosperm dominance reveal that massive EVOLUTION diversification began in the mid-Cretaceous (ca. 112.0 to 93.5 Ma), when angiosperms first rose to widespread floristic dominance. These and other evidence suggest a deep and complex history of coevolution between weevils and angiosperms, including codiver- sification, resource tracking, and sequential evolution. -
Picos De Europa
Picos de Europa th th 6 – 13 June 2012 Holiday participants Val Appleyard & Ron Fitton Diana & David Melzack Elonwy & Peter Crook Jo & Jim Simons Chris Ebden Marie Watt Pam & Bob Harris David Wilkins Leaders Teresa Farino and John Muddeman Our base for the holiday was Posada El Hoyal, Pesaguero: http://www.posadaelhoyal.com/ Teresa and John’s blog about Spanish wildlife: http://www.iberianwildlife.com/blog/ Report by John Muddeman and Teresa Farino. Species lists by John Muddeman and Teresa Farino. All photos in this report were taken during the course of the trip, those edged grey by Teresa Farino, and edged blue by David and Diana Melzack. Cover montage: Snowfinch above Fuente Dé; Southern Chamois above Fuente Dé; Marsh Fritillaries at the Sierra de ****; Elder-flowered Orchid at San Glorio. Below: the glacial lakes in the central massif above Fuente Dé. As with all Honeyguide holidays, part of the price of the holiday was put towards a conservation project, in this case the Fundación Oso Pardo (FOP), the Spanish Brown Bear Conservation Foundation, and its work protecting both this species and its habitat in northern Spain. The conservation contribution this year of £40 per person was supplemented by gift aid through the Honeyguide Wildlife Charitable Trust. During the holiday, Fernando Ballesteros, chief biologist with the FOP, and Elsa Sánchez, a member of the team that patrols the area around Pesaguero, came to El Hoyal to talk to the group, showing an interesting film about Cantabrican brown bears. A lively discussion with members of the group about the biology and behaviour of these last few remaining bears ensued, after which Peter Crook presented Fernando with a cheque for 742€ (£640), which he accepted on behalf of the FOP.
