VAS Zoltán Vas, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Department of Zoology, Hymenoptera Collection, H-1088 Budapest, Baross u. 13., Hungary. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Eight new species of Casinaria Holmgren, 1859 are described: Casinaria castanea sp. nov. and Casinaria rubens sp. nov. from South Africa, Casinaria sellata sp. nov. from South Africa and Kenya, Casinaria kittenbergeri sp. nov. from Uganda, Casinaria papuensis sp. nov. from Papua New Guinea, Casinaria coloratilis sp. nov., Casinaria russea sp. nov. and Casinaria vesca sp. nov. from Taiwan. The Afrotropical species of the genus are overviewed, and an identification key provided. Additionally, the first reports of Casinaria granulicoxis (Seyrig, 1935) from South Africa, Casinaria albipalpis (Gravenhorst, 1829) from Sweden and Casinaria kriechbaumeri (Costa, 1884) from Cyprus are given.

  • ELIZABETH LOCKARD SKILLEN Diversity of Parasitic Hymenoptera
    ELIZABETH LOCKARD SKILLEN Diversity of Parasitic Hymenoptera (Ichneumonidae: Campopleginae and Ichneumoninae) in Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Eastern North American Forests (Under the direction of JOHN PICKERING) I examined species richness and composition of Campopleginae and Ichneumoninae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) parasitoids in cut and uncut forests and before and after fire in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee (GSMNP). I also compared alpha and beta diversity along a latitudinal gradient in Eastern North America with sites in Ontario, Maryland, Georgia, and Florida. Between 1997- 2000, I ran insect Malaise traps at 6 sites in two habitats in GSMNP. Sites include 2 old-growth mesic coves (Porters Creek and Ramsay Cascades), 2 second-growth mesic coves (Meigs Post Prong and Fish Camp Prong) and 2 xeric ridges (Lynn Hollow East and West) in GSMNP. I identified 307 species (9,716 individuals): 165 campoplegine species (3,273 individuals) and a minimum of 142 ichneumonine species (6,443 individuals) from 6 sites in GSMNP. The results show the importance of habitat differences when examining ichneumonid species richness at landscape scales. I report higher richness for both subfamilies combined in the xeric ridge sites (Lynn Hollow West (114) and Lynn Hollow East (112)) than previously reported peaks at mid-latitudes, in Maryland (103), and lower than Maryland for the two cove sites (Porters Creek, 90 and Ramsay Cascades, 88). These subfamilies appear to have largely recovered 70+ years after clear-cutting, yet Campopleginae may be more susceptible to logging disturbance. Campopleginae had higher species richness in old-growth coves and a 66% overlap in species composition between previously cut and uncut coves.

  • Hymenoptera Ichneumonidae of the Montecristo Island (Tuscan Archipelago), with Some New Records for the Italian Fauna
    Naturalista sicil., S. IV, XLIII (1), 2019, pp. 101-111 FILIPPO DI GIOVANNI & PIER LUIGI SCARAMOZZINO HYMENOPTERA ICHNEUMONIDAE OF THE MONTECRISTO ISLAND (TUSCAN ARCHIPELAGO), WITH SOME NEW RECORDS FOR THE ITALIAN FAUNA SUMMARY Data on the presence in the Island of Montecristo (Tuscan Archipelago, Italy) of 35 taxa of Ich- neumonidae (Hymenoptera Ichneumonoidea) are provided. The specimens were collected with a Malaise trap in 2011 and 2012. Seven of the identified species were already known for the Tuscan archipelago, four for the Island of Montecristo. The total number of Ichneumonidae in the Archipelago rises from 20 to 49 species, that of Montecristo from 5 to 36. Eleven species are new records for South Italy. Townostilpnus chagrinator Aubert, 1916, previously known only from Cor- sica and southern France, is new to Italy. Key words: biodiversity, parasitoids, checklist RIASSUNTO Gli Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) dell’Isola di Montecristo (Arcipelago Toscano, Italia), con alcu- ne nuove segnalazioni per la fauna italiana. Sono forniti dati sulla presenza nell’isola di Montecristo (Arcipelago Toscano, Italia) di 35 taxa di Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera Ichneumonoidea). Gli esemplari sono stati raccolti con una trappola Malaise nel 2011 e nel 2012. Sette delle specie identi- ficate erano già conosciute dall’arcipelago toscano, quattro di queste per l’isola di Montecristo. Il numero totale di Ichneumonidae nell’Arcipelago sale da 20 a 49 specie, quello di Montecristo da 5 a 36. Undici specie sono nuove per l’Italia meridionale. Townostilpnus chagrinator Aubert, 1961, in precedenza noto solo di Corsica e Francia meridionale, è nuovo per l’Italia. Parole chiave: biodiversità, parassitoidi, checklist 102 F.
