COCOON-SPINNING AND THE DEFENSIVE FUNCTION OF THE MEDIAN GLAND IN LARVAE OF ALEOCHARINAE (COLEOPTERA, STAPHYLINIDAE): A REVIEW J. H. Frank Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory 200 9th Street S.E. Vero Beach, Fl 32962 U.S.A. M. C. Thomas 4327 NW 30th Terrace Gainesville, Fl 32605 U.S.A. Quaestiones Entomologicae 20:7-23 1984 ABSTRACT Ability of a Leptusa prepupa to spin a silken cocoon was reported by Albert Fauvel in 1862. A median gland of abdominal segment VIII of a Leptusa larva was described in 1914 by Paul Brass who speculated that it might have a locomotory function, but more probably a defensive function. Knowledge was expanded in 1918 by Nils Alarik Kemner who found the gland in larvae of 12 aleocharine genera and contended it has a defensive function. He also suggested that cocoon-spinning may be a subfamilial characteristic of Aleocharinae and that the Malpighian tubules are the source of silk. Kemner's work has been largely overlooked and later authors attributed other functions to the gland. However, the literature yet contains no proof that Kemner was wrong even though some larvae lack the gland and even though circumstantial evidence points to another (perhaps peritrophic membrane) origin of the silk with clear evidence in some species that the Malpighian tubules are the source of a nitrogenous cement.

  • A Comprehensive DNA Barcode Database for Central European Beetles with a Focus on Germany: Adding More Than 3500 Identified Species to BOLD

In many countries, they are well established for environmental impact assessment, but even in the well-studied Central European fauna, species identification can be very difficult. A comprehensive and taxonomically well-curated DNA barcode library could remedy this deficit and could also link hundreds of years of traditional knowledge with next generation sequencing technology. However, such a beetle library is missing to date. This study provides the globally largest DNA barcode reference library for Coleoptera for 15 948 individuals belonging to 3514 well-identified species (53% of the German fauna) with representatives from 97 of 103 families (94%). This study is the first comprehensive regional test of the efficiency of DNA barcoding for beetles with a focus on Germany. Sequences ≥500 bp were recovered from 63% of the specimens analysed (15 948 of 25 294) with short sequences from another 997 specimens.

  • Molecular Phylogeny of the Beetle Tribe Oxypodini (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae)
    Systematic Entomology (2013), 38, 507–522 DOI: 10.1111/syen.12011 Molecular phylogeny of the beetle tribe Oxypodini (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae) JUDITH OSSWALD, LUTZ BACHMANN and VLADIMIR I. GUSAROV Department of Research and Collections, National Centre for Biosystematics, Natural History Museum, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway Abstract. This is the first study to comprehensively address the phylogeny of the tribe Oxypodini Thomson and its phylogenetic relationships to other tribes within the staphylinid subfamily Aleocharinae. Using the hitherto largest molecular dataset of Aleocharinae comprising of 4599 bp for representatives of 22 tribes, the Oxypodini are recovered as non-monophyletic. Members of the tribe belong to three distantly related lineages within the Aleocharinae: (i) the Amarochara group as sister clade to the tribe Aleocharini, (ii) the subtribe Tachyusina within a clade that also includes the tribes Athetini and Hygronomini, (iii) all other Oxypodini in a clade that also includes the tribes Placusini, Hoplandriini and Liparocephalini. Based on the inferred phylogeny, five subtribes of the Oxypodini are recognized: Dinardina Mulsant & Rey, Meoticina Seevers, Microglottina Fenyes, Oxypodina Thomson and Phloeoporina Thomson. The following changes in the classification of the Aleocharinae are proposed: (i) Amarochara Thomson is removed from the Oxypodini and placed in the tribe Aleocharini; (ii) the subtribe Taxicerina Lohse of the Athetini is reinstated as tribe Taxicerini to include Discerota Mulsant & Rey, Halobrecta Thomson (both removed from the Oxypodini) and Taxicera Mulsant & Rey; (iii) the subtribe Tachyusina Thomson is excluded from the Oxypodini and provisionally treated as tribe Tachyusini; (iv) the oxypodine subtribe name Blepharhymenina Klimaszewski & Peck is placed in synonymy with the subtribe name Dinardina Mulsant & Rey.

Etude des interactions entre l’entomofaune et un cadavre: approches biologique, comportementale et chémo-écologique du coléoptère nécrophage, Thanatophilus sinuatus Fabricius (Col., Silphidae) (thèse de doctorat). Gembloux, Belgique, Université de Liege, Gembloux Agro- Bio Tech, 277 p., 28 tabl., 47 fig. Résumé – La décomposition d’un corps entraîne des changements physiques et biochimiques importants, le cadavre va émettre des odeurs attractives pour certaines espèces et d’autres moins attractives. Au sein des écosystèmes terrestres tempérés, les insectes sont généralement les principaux organismes qui colonisent un corps selon une séquence plus ou moins prédictive. Ces insectes nécrophages et/ou nécrophiles, principalement des Diptères et des Coléoptères, utilisent le micro- habitat créé par le cadavre comme un substrat nourricier, un site de reproduction, un refuge ou encore comme un territoire de chasse.

  • Der Behaarte Kurzflügler Emus Hirtus (LINNAEUS, 1758) in Nordrhein-Westfalen (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) – Verbreitung, Biologie Und Bestandsentwicklung
    Abhandlungen aus dem Westfälischen Museum für Naturkunde, Band 82 (2016): 61-76 Der Behaarte Kurzflügler Emus hirtus (LINNAEUS, 1758) in Nordrhein-Westfalen (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) – Verbreitung, Biologie und Bestandsentwicklung Karsten Hannig, Waltrop & Christian Kerkering, Emsdetten Summary Distribution records of the rove beetle Emus hirtus (LINNAEUS, 1758) from Northrhine-Westphalia are presented and discussed. The habitat preference for the northwestern part of Germany is characterized and data concerning phenol- logy and biology are given. Zusammenfassung Für die zentral-europäisch weit verbreitete, in Deutschland inzwischen sehr sel- tene Kurzflüglerart Emus hirtus (LINNAEUS, 1758) werden die bislang bekannten Nachweise aus Nordrhein-Westfalen aufgeführt und kartografisch dargestellt. Darüber hinaus werden Aussagen zu Phänologie und Habitatpräferenz doku- mentiert und diskutiert. 1 Einleitung Der Behaarte Kurzflügler Emus hirtus ist „von West- und Südwesteuropa bis nach Mittelasien verbreitet“, wobei er im mitteleuropäischen Raum selten vorkommt und nur in Wärmeperioden gelegentlich häufiger auftritt (SCHILLHAMMER 2011). Die große und auffällige Art (Abb. 1) gilt als Prädator vor allem von Aphodius- und Dungfliegen-Larven, weswegen ihr Auftreten zumeist mit dem Dung großer Huftiere assoziiert werden kann (FREUDE et al. 1971, KRAWCZYNSKI et al. 2011). „Aufgrund eines massiven Landschaftsverbrauchs und der seit Jahrzehnten zu- nehmenden Bewirtschaftungsintensität der modernen Landwirtschaft ist vor allem die Massentierhaltung (reine Stallhaltung, Gülle-Ausbringung anstelle von Mist etc.) unter Aufgabe der traditionellen, extensiven Weidewirtschaftsformen die Ursache dafür, dass der Koprophagenfauna sowie ihren Prädatoren der Lebensraum und das Nahrungssubstrat genommen wird (SCHULZE 2013). Er- schwerend kommt die inzwischen gängige Praxis der prophylaktischen, veter- inärmedizinischen Medikation in der landwirtschaftlichen Hochleistungs-Nutz- 61 tierhaltung hinzu. Vor allem der Einsatz von Breitband-Bioziden (u.a.
