Apionidae of the Francesco Vitale Collection (Insecta: Coleoptera)
DOI: 10.1478/AAPP.991A5 AAPP j Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali ISSN 1825-1242 Vol. 99, No. 1, A5 (2021) APIONIDAE OF THE FRANCESCO VITALE COLLECTION (INSECTA: COLEOPTERA) CARLO GIUSTO a AND COSIMO BAVIERA b∗ ABSTRACT. The Francesco Vitale Sicilian collection of Apionidae is critically revised. Ho- plopodapion poupillieri (Wencker, 1864), Ischnopterapion (Ischnopterapion) aeneomicans nothum (Desbrochers des Loges, 1897) and Pseudoprotapion dumeei (A. Hoffmann, 1957) are recorded for the first time from Sicily and Italy; Omphalapion laevigatum (Paykull, 1792) is recorded for the first time from Sicily, whereas the presence on the islandof Aizobius sedi (Germar, 1818) and Acentrotypus brunnipes (Boheman, 1839), until now considered doubtful, is confirmed. All species quoted from Sicily by Vitale are listed and commented. In addition, the previous citation of Ceratapion (Echinostroma) basicorne (Illiger, 1807) from Cyprus is attributed to Ceratapion (Echinostroma) curtii (Wagner, 1920) and C. curtii is recorded for the first time from this country. Brief comments on our current knowledge of the apionid fauna of Sicily are also included. 1. Introduction Francesco Vitale (Messina, September 17, 1861 – Messina, February 9, 1953) was an enthusiastic amateur entomologist whose field work was of great importance for the knowledge of the Sicilian beetle fauna. From 1881 to 1942 he published about 100 scientific works, many of which dedicated to the study of the superfamily Curculionoidea. In 1889 he published his first note on the then genus Apion, a report full of biological and chorological data on the 52 species collected by him from 1884 to 1888 in the surroundings of Messina, and including some considerations on the 72 species of Apionidae then reported from the whole of Sicily. -

2004, Pp. 1177-1193 WEEVILS of FICUZZA NATURE RESERVE
Naturalista sicil., S. IV, XXVIII (3-4), 2004, pp. 1177-1193 ROBERT STEJSKAL WEEVILS OF FICUZZA NATURE RESERVE (PALERMO PROVINCE, SICILY): COMMUNITIES IN OAK FOREST STANDS AND THE FIRST CHECKLIST (Coleoptera Curculionoidea) SUMMARY In spring 2003 weevil beetles (Curculionoidea) were studied in “Riserva Naturale Orientata Bosco di Ficuzza” Nature Reserve, one of the most famous protected areas of Palermo province (Sici- ly). The study was focused on weevil communities of canopy of oak forest stands (communities in evergreen forest of Quercus ilex vs. deciduous forest of Q. pubescens s. l.), using beating method; other aim of the research was to provide species inventory (checklist) of this beetle group for the Ficuzza. Looking at community of the oak forest stands, a total of 28 species of weevils were recorded (417 individuals in 25 samples, Q. ilex: 22 species, Q. pubescens: 17 species), of which 16 linked to oak trees. The most common species were Polydrusus siculus, showing preference for stands dominated by Quercus pubescens, followed by P. elegantulus and P. frater, being more numerous in Q. ilex stands. Relative density values of community on both oak species were nearly the same (17 specimens/25 branches), and peaked in the half of May on Quercus pubescens, about three weeks later on Q. ilex. The first version of checklist of Curculionoidea for Ficuzza includes following numbers of species: 1 Urodontidae, 2 Anthribidae, 5 Attelabidae, 1 Brenthidae, 32 Apionidae, 2 Nanophyidae, 2 Brachyc- eridae, 1 Erirhinidae, 130 Curculionidae and 1 Rhynchophoridae, altogether 177 taxa, of which 24 endemic to Italy/Sicily. Four species are new for Sicily: Bagous alismatis (Marsham, 1802), Bagous robustus H. -

Infection by Endosymbiotic “Male-Killing” Bacteria in Coleoptera * Micha³ KOLASA , Daniel KUBISZ, Jerzy M

Infection by endosymbiotic “male-killing” bacteria in Coleoptera. Folia Biologica (Kraków) 66: 165-177. Wolbachia, Rickettsia, Spiroplasma and Cardinium are endosymbiotic and intracellular bacteria known to cause numerous disorders in host reproduction, reflected in their common name “male-killers”. In this study, 297 beetle species from various taxonomic groups were screened with the use of molecular markers for the presence of infection by any of these endosymbionts. Wolbachia was found to be the most common “male-killer” among beetle hosts as it infected approx. 27% of species. Rickettsia, Spiroplasma and Cardinium were much less prevalent as they infected: 8%, 3% and 2%, respectively, of the studied beetle species. This is the first report of Cardinium presence in beetle hosts. Incidences of co-infection of two bacteria taxa were very rare and only two weevil species were found to be infected by three different bacteria. These findings suggest that endosymbiotic bacteria inhabit their host at various levels of prevalence and that particular taxa usually infect different hosts, suggesting some competition among “male-killers”. -

Alaska has a limited taxonomic workforce to address these changes. We are building a DNA barcode library to facilitate a metabarcoding approach to monitoring non-marine arthropods. Working with the Canadian Centre for DNA Barcoding, we obtained DNA barcodes from recently collected and authoritatively identified specimens in the University of Alaska Museum Insect Collection and the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge collection. -

Curculionoidea (Coleoptera) from Southern Turkey
African Journal of Biotechnology Vol. 10(62), pp. 13555-13597, 12 October, 2011 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJB ISSN 1684–5315 © 2011 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Curculionoidea (Coleoptera) from southern Turkey Sakine Serap Avgın 1* and Enzo Colonnelli 2 1Kahramanmaras Sütçü Imam University, Faculty of Education, Kahramanmaras, Turkey. 2Via delle Giunchiglie, 56 - 00172 Rome, Italy. Accepted 29 June, 2011 A checklist of Curculionoidea is given from southern Turkey (Adana, Osmaniye and Hatay provinces). The known localities and ecological notes on each of them were reported based on literature records and on recently collected material. Lixus farinifer Reitter is newly recorded from Turkey, and 35 species (2 Rhynchitidae, 5 Apionidae and 28 Curculionidae) was indicated for the first time from the investigated area of southern Turkey; although, the synonymy Oedecnemidius varius (= Phyllerastes pictus Steven, nomen nudum; = Phyllobius pictus syn. em.) is rectified. It was also pointed out that the name Periteloneus schilsky Reitter 1913 is a nomen nudum. Key words: Curculionoidea, synonymy, southern Turkey, faunistic, Adana, Osmaniye, Hatay, provinces. INTRODUCTION With some 62,000 species described to date (Oberprieler 30 years, some inaccuracies are inevitable, partly due to et al., 2007), Curculionoidea are the largest superfamily incorrect identifications and changes of names which of the entire animal kingdom. The number of Curculio- affected a number of common species in such a long noidea families was reduced by some authors to only 7 period. Thus, some records were critically revised to (Oberprieler et al. 2007), but this study used the provide, possibly, the correct data, and in any case report classification of Alonzo-Zarazaga and Lyal (1999, 2002, the original name under which those autors cited these 2006).
