  • Crveni Popis Trčaka Hrvatske (Coleoptera, Carabidae) Naručitelj: Državni Zavod Za Zaštitu Prirode
    CRVENI POPIS TRČAKA HRVATSKE (COLEOPTERA, CARABIDAE) NARUČITELJ: DRŽAVNI ZAVOD ZA ZAŠTITU PRIRODE 2007. CRVENI POPIS TRČAKA (CARABIDAE) HRVATSKE Crveni popis trčaka (Carabidae) izrađen je na prijedlog Državnog zavoda za zaštitu prirode. Crveni popisi raznih skupina su jedna od temeljnih stručnih podloga u zaštiti prirode (Radović 2004). Njihova je zadaća prikazati koje vrste su u opasnosti od izumiranja i koliko brzo se to može očekivati. Za izradu takvih popisa postoje određeni preduvjeti, odnosno količina znanja proizašla iz istraživanja određene skupine mora biti dostatna. ŠTO SU SVE TRČCI ? Trčci (Carabidae) su jedna od najvećih porodica kornjaša (Coleoptera). Kako je sistematika ove porodice predmet stalnih istraživanja i promjena, procjena ukupnog broja vrsta u svijetu, ali i u Europi varira kod različitih autora. Osim toga, usprkos dva stoljeća intenzivnih istraživanja, autori se još ne slažu oko toga koje sve vrste pripadaju porodici Carabidae, niti kako je ona podijeljena na niže sistematske kategorije. U najstarijim katalozima porodica Carabidae je podijeljena, većinom, samo na dvije do tri potporodice. Ti katalozi (Dejean 1831, Ganglbauer 1892, Junk & Shlenking 1926, Latreille 1802, 1810, Schaum 1850, Winkler 1924-1932) napravljeni su na temelju ondašnjih znanja, a to je u najvećoj mjeri bilo samo poznavanje i uspoređivanje morfologije odraslih jedinki. U radovima nešto novijeg datuma (Basilewski 1973, Jeannel 1941-1942) porodica trčaka promatrana je također s aspekta morfologije imaga, ali je podijeljena na veći broj, često i preko 50 potporodica. Lindroth (1961-1962) je broj potporodica smanjio na 8, ali ih je podijelio na nekoliko desetaka tribusa koji međusobno nisu ujedinjeni. Te tribuse je u supertribuse ujedinio Kryzhanovskij (1983), a tu podjelu prihvaćao je veliki broj autora.

  • Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1).

Browne, Ph.D., Advisor Terry L. Erwin, Ph.D., Chair T. Michael Anderson, Ph.D. William E. Conner, Ph.D. Miles R. Silman, Ph.D. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First, I would like to thank to my advisor, Dr. Robert Browne, who has played a pivotal role in my time at Wake Forest University, encouraging and supporting my research endeavors since my sophomore year as a biology undergraduate. I would also like to thank Biology Department committee members, Dr. Miles Silman, Dr. Bill Conner, Dr. Michael Anderson. The dissertation research would not have taken place in Peru had it not been for Dr. Silman’s long standing research presence there, and I am grateful for his connection. Dr. Conner was my first professor in biology ten years ago, and he has given invaluable insight as the first reader of the dissertation. Dr. Anderson provided instrumental ecological perspective in both my academic career and dissertation. A special thanks to my outside committee member, Dr. Terry Erwin, Curator of Coleoptera at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, and Neotropical carabid beetle expert. He has dedicated his time and expertise so that my specimens were identified correctly and I made all the appropriate connections to colleagues in both Peru and the U.S.

  • Coleoptera: Carabidae) Assemblages and Vegetation Community Structure in Calluna Vulgaris Heathlands in NW Spain
    © Entomologica Fennica. 11 October 2006 A preliminary investigation of ground beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae) assemblages and vegetation community structure in Calluna vulgaris heathlands in NW Spain David Cuesta, Angela Taboada, Leonor Calvo & José M. Salgado Cuesta, D., Taboada, A., Calvo, L. & Salgado, J. M. 2006: Apreliminary investi- gation of ground beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae) assemblages and vegetation community structure in Calluna vulgaris heathlands in NW Spain. — Entomol. Fennica 17: 241–252. We present results of a primary survey of carabid beetles in Calluna vulgaris heathlands in the Cantabrian mountain range, NW Spain. We selected four heathland sites and captured carabids during July–August 2004 by randomly placing 48 pitfall traps per site (192 traps in total). The mature heathland carabid assemblage was mostly characterised by generalist, open habitat species, bra- chypterous and medium-sized species. Several endemic species were also found. Dominant species were the same in the four heathland sites, but differences in the total number of species were due to rarely collected ones. Differences in carabid assemblage composition between heathland sites indicate that care should be taken when selecting aprioriheathland replicates for future research. Results from this study are mainly exploratory, showing that there is a characteristic carabid assemblage for these mature heathlands, different from other shrub com- munities of the same area. Preservation of heathlands in a mature stage would re- quire management practices to avoid its natural evolution to a degenerative phase and the possible disappearance of the adapted carabid species.

  • The Response of Beetles to Group Selection Harvesting in A
    THE RESPONSE OF BEETLES TO GROUP SELECTION HARVESTING IN A SOUTHEASTERN BOTTOMLAND HARDWOOD FOREST by MICHAEL DARRAGH ULYSHEN (Under the Direction of James L. Hanula) ABSTRACT The environmental protection and sustainable management of our remaining forests are increasingly important concerns. Group selection harvesting is an uneven-aged forest management practice that removes patches of desirable trees to create small openings mimicking natural disturbances. To determine the effects of this technique on beetles, malaise and pitfall traps were placed at the center, edge, and in the forest surrounding artificially created gaps of different size (0.13, 0.26, and 0.50 ha) and age (1 and 7 years) in a South Carolina bottomland hardwood forest. Beetles were generally more abundant and species rich in the centers of younger gaps than in the centers of older gaps or in the forest surrounding them. There were relatively few differences in the abundance and richness of beetles between old gaps and the surrounding forest but species composition differed considerably. These differences may be explained by the uneven distribution of various resources.
