  • Mitochondrial Genomes Resolve the Phylogeny of Adephaga
    1 Mitochondrial genomes resolve the phylogeny 2 of Adephaga (Coleoptera) and confirm tiger 3 beetles (Cicindelidae) as an independent family 4 Alejandro López-López1,2,3 and Alfried P. Vogler1,2 5 1: Department of Life Sciences, Natural History Museum, London SW7 5BD, UK 6 2: Department of Life Sciences, Silwood Park Campus, Imperial College London, Ascot SL5 7PY, UK 7 3: Departamento de Zoología y Antropología Física, Facultad de Veterinaria, Universidad de Murcia, Campus 8 Mare Nostrum, 30100, Murcia, Spain 9 10 Corresponding author: Alejandro López-López ([email protected]) 11 12 Abstract 13 The beetle suborder Adephaga consists of several aquatic (‘Hydradephaga’) and terrestrial 14 (‘Geadephaga’) families whose relationships remain poorly known. In particular, the position 15 of Cicindelidae (tiger beetles) appears problematic, as recent studies have found them either 16 within the Hydradephaga based on mitogenomes, or together with several unlikely relatives 17 in Geadeadephaga based on 18S rRNA genes. We newly sequenced nine mitogenomes of 18 representatives of Cicindelidae and three ground beetles (Carabidae), and conducted 19 phylogenetic analyses together with 29 existing mitogenomes of Adephaga. Our results 20 support a basal split of Geadephaga and Hydradephaga, and reveal Cicindelidae, together 21 with Trachypachidae, as sister to all other Geadephaga, supporting their status as Family. We 22 show that alternative arrangements of basal adephagan relationships coincide with increased 23 rates of evolutionary change and with nucleotide compositional bias, but these confounding 24 factors were overcome by the CAT-Poisson model of PhyloBayes. The mitogenome + 18S 25 rRNA combined matrix supports the same topology only after removal of the hypervariable 26 expansion segments.

  • Complete Mitochondrial Genome Sequence of Cicindela Anchoralis Chevrolat, 1845 (Coleoptera: Carabidae)
    MITOCHONDRIAL DNA PART B: RESOURCES, 2018 VOL. 3, NO. 1, 282–283 https://doi.org/10.1080/23802359.2018.1443040 MITOGENOME ANNOUNCEMENT Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Cicindela anchoralis Chevrolat, 1845 (Coleoptera: Carabidae) Ah Rha Wang, Min Jee Kim, Su Yeon Jeong and Iksoo Kim Department of Applied Biology, College of Agriculture & Life Sciences, Chonnam National University, Gwangju, Republic of Korea ABSTRACT ARTICLE HISTORY The tiger beetle, Cicindela anchoralis Chevrolat, 1845 (Coleoptera: Carabidae), has been listed as an Received 26 January 2018 Endangered insect in South Korea. We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) Accepted 13 February 2018 of this organism (16,388 bp). The genome includes a typical set of genes (13 protein-coding genes KEYWORDS (PCGs), 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes) and 1 non-coding region with an arrangement identical to Mitochondrial genome; that observed in most insect genomes. Twelve PCGs had the typical ATN start codon, whereas ND1 had þ Carabidae; Cicindela the atypical TTG codon. The AT-rich region is 1629-bp long, composed of 80.0% A T nucleotides, and anchoralis; Endangered has no long repeat sequences. Phylogenetic analyses with concatenated sequences of the 13 PCGs and species; phylogeny 2 rRNA genes, using the Bayesian inference (BI) method, placed C. anchoralis as a sister to the within- subfamilial species Habrodera capensis, with the highest nodal support presented by both BI and maximum likelihood (ML) methods. Three subfamilies represented by more than one species (Cicindelinae, Harpalinae, and Carabinae) were all determined by both BI and ML analyses to form strong monophyletic groups. The tiger beetle, Cicindela anchoralis Chevrolat, 1845 determined using PartitionFinder 2 and the Greedy algorithm (Coleoptera: Carabidae), which has been listed as an (Lanfear et al.

  • Die Ripikole Carabidenfauna Der Ems Zwischen Lingen Und Dem Dollart Mit 4 Abbildungen Und 3 Tabellen Thorsten Aßmann* 1 Einleit
    Osnabrücker nalurwiss. Mit!. 4Abb., 3 Tab. Osnabrück, Dez. 1991 Die ripikole Carabidenfauna der Ems zwischen Lingen und dem Dollart mit 4 Abbildungen und 3 Tabellen Thorsten Aßmann* Abstract: From 1984 to 1990 carabid beetles had been studied at 14 sampie sites of the river Ems (Lower Saxony, F. R. G.) by means of hand-collecting. 127 species were found under willow bushes, on the river banks, on the soil of marshes and in the region of the estuary. So me species are obviously stenotopic, e. g. Elaphrus aureus, living only under the willow bushes growing along the edge of the upper and middle river courses, or Bembidion maritimum, a species of the tidal- zones in estuaries. Kurzfassung : Von 1984 bis 1990 wurde die Carabidenfauna von 14 FangsteIlen an der mittleren und unteren Ems (Niedersachsen) mit Handfängen untersucht. Insgesamt konnten unter Wei- .dengebüschen, an offenen Ufern, an Sumpfstellen und im Ästuarbereich 127 Arten nachgewie- sen werden. Einige der festgestellten Arten sind offenbar stenotop, z. B. Elaphrus aureus, der Weidengebüsche der oberen und mittleren Ems bewohnt, und Bembidion maritimum, der im Tidenbereich der Flußmündung lebt. 1 Einleitung Obwohl die Laufkäferfauna mitteleuropäischer Auen von mehreren Autoren unter- sucht worden ist - so bearbeiteten LEHMANN(1965), LEHMACHER(1978) und SIEPE (1989) verschiedene Biotope am Rhein, verglich PLACHTER(1986) die Fauna der Schotterbänke bayrischer Flüsse mit sogenannten "Sekundärgebieten" (Sand- und Kiesgruben), untersuchte REHFELDT (1984) ostniedersächsische Flußauen und beschrieben GERKEN& BARNA(1987) die ripikole Carabidenfauna aus der Umgebung von Holzminden und Höxter -, 'Iiegen aus Nordwestdeutschland nur wenige Arbeiten zur Zusammensetzung der Laufkäferfauna in Au- und Ästuargebieten vor.

Pitfall-traps (15) were placed along a transect and were operating continuously. The traps caught 10,332 individuals, belonging to 127 species. Both the number of species and cumulative number of species increased continuously with no sign of saturation over the 10-year period. The dominant species showed large changes in numbers from year to year. We suggest that fluctuations in abundance, and the year to year changes in the dominant species are caused mainly by the unstable wetland habitat, and only partially by species biology. Key words: Carabids, wetland, Hungary Introduction The study area was formerly the western bay of the Lake Balaton, Hungary.

Chillán, CHILE, e-mail: [email protected] 3Doctoral Program in Biodiversity, Biodiversity Iberoamerican Center, University of Alicante, SPAIN, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT We evaluated differences related to body shape of males and females of Ceroglossus chilensis using morphometric geometry. This species is widely distributed in Chile, associated with native forests and exotic plantations. In December 2004 and January 2005 we collected 53 males and 63 females from two plantations of Pinus radiata located in the Coast Range and Andes foothills in the Región del Bío-Bío. Individuals were photographed, and 17 landmarks from lateral and ventral views were digitized. We used a multivariate analysis of variance with sex and locality as factors to investigate differences in body form among sexes. Sexual dimorphism was present in both populations; males had a wider proepisternum, while females had a narrower proepisternum and wider abdominal sternites. Differences among populations were also found; the abdomen of both males and females from the Coast Range is more elongated and thicker than in the Andes foothills. These differences raise the question of whether sexual dimorphism may be modulated by natural selection.

Species can naturally colonize novel environments or they can expand their range, due to anthropogenic disturbances, into regions where they were not historically present. Moreover, human-mediated transport and human-activity allow more individuals and more species to reach new locations, more often and more quickly, ultimately resulting in colonization rates being greater than natural colonization (Blackburn et al., 2014; Hoffmann & Courchamp, 2016). These species, the so called exotic species (Sax, 2002a,b) or non-native species (Hejda et al., 2009), necessarily go through the same stages of introduction, establishment and spread of native species (Hoffmann & Courchamp, 2016).
