Published online at www.senckenberg.de/arthropod-systematics on 18.vii.2014. Abstract External and internal features of the head of adult Nevrorthus apatelios are described in detail. The results are compared with data from literature. The mouthpart muscle M. stipitalis transversalis and a hypopharyngeal transverse ligament are newly described for Neuroptera and herewith reported for the first time in Endopterygota. A submental gland with multiporous opening is described for Nevrorthidae and Osmylidae and is apparently unique among insects. The parsimony analysis indicates that Sisyridae is the sister group to all remaining Neuroptera. This placement is supported by the development of 1) a transverse division of the galea in two parts in all Neuroptera exclud­ ing Sisyridae, 2) the above mentioned submental gland in Nevrorthidae and Osmylidae, and 3) a poison system in all neuropteran larvae except Sisyridae. Implications for the phylogenetic relationships from the interpretation of larval character evolution, specifically the poison system, cryptonephry and formation of the head capsule are discussed.

  • Does Argentine Ant Invasion Conserve Colouring Variation of Myrmecomorphic Jumping Spider?

Yoshifumi Touyama1, Fuminori Ito2 1Niho, Minami-ku, Hiroshima City, Japan 2Laboratory of Entomology, Faculty of Agriculture, Kagawa University, Ikenobe, Japan Email: [email protected] Received 23 April 2014; revised 3 June 2014; accepted 22 June 2014 Copyright © 2014 by authors and Scientific Research Publishing Inc. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Argentine ant invasion changed colour-polymorphic composition of ant-mimetic jumping spider Myrmarachne in southwestern Japan. In Argentine ant-free sites, most of Myrmarachne exhibited all-blackish colouration. In Argentine ant-infested sites, on the other hand, blackish morph de- creased, and bicoloured (i.e. partly bright-coloured) morphs increased in dominance. Invasive Argentine ant drives away native blackish ants. Disappearance of blackish model ants supposedly led to malfunction of Batesian mimicry of Myrmarachne. Keywords Batesian Mimicry, Biological Invasion, Linepithema humile, Myrmecomorphy, Myrmarachne, Polymorphism 1. Introduction It has attracted attention of biologists that many arthropods morphologically and/or behaviorally resemble ants [1]-[4]. Resemblance of non-ant arthropods to aggressive and/or unpalatable ants is called myrmecomorphy (ant-mimicry). Especially, spider myrmecomorphy has been described through many literatures [5]-[9]. Myr- mecomorphy is considered to be an example of Batesian mimicry gaining protection from predators.

Antlions produce efficient traps, with slopes steep feasible for antlion larvae, which dig simple pits in sand to enough to guide preys to their mouths without any attack, catch ants. Slope angle, conicity and the distance between and shallow enough to avoid the likelihood of avalanches the head and the trap bottom, known as off-centring, were typical of crater angles. The reasons for the paucity of measured using a precise scanning device. Complete attack simplest and most efficient traps such as theses in the sequences in the same pits were then quantified, with animal kingdom are discussed. predation cost related to the number of behavioural items before capture. Off-centring leads to a loss of architectural efficiency that is compensated by complex attack Supplementary material available online at behaviour. Off-centring happened in half of the cases and http://jeb.biologists.org/cgi/content/full/209/18/3510/DC1 corresponded to post-construction movements.

    BREDIN-ARCHBOLD-SMITHSONIAN BIOLOGICAL SURVEY OF DOMINICA The Family Dolichopodidae with Some Related Antillean and Panamanian Species (Diptera) HAROLD ROBINSON SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 185 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These pub- lications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other interested institutions and specialists throughout the world. Individual copies may be obtained from the Smithsonian Institution Press as long as stocks are available.

He was their fourth child, having two older brothers and an older sister, and was their only child born in Utah. The Harmston branch of the family tree traces its roots back to Lincolnshire, England, where a town bears their name. His father was born in Missouri in 1861 and died in Roosevelt, in 1922. His mother was born in Maine in 1869 and also died in Roosevelt, in 1937. Fred’s parents met in Hyannis, Nebraska, and were married November 27, 1897, in Wessington Springs, South Dakota, the first couple to be wed in the new Congregational Church. Fred’s father was a pharmacist, and a graduate of the College of Optometry in Chicago, Illinois. He operated drug stores in Teluride Colorado, Weiser Idaho, White Lake and Wessington Springs in South Dakota, and finally in Roosevelt Utah. The family arrived in Roosevelt four years after it was settled.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The new micro-dolichopodid genus Haromyia gen. nov. and the type species H. iviei sp. nov. are described from the island of Dominica in the Lesser Antilles. Males and females of Haromyia are distinguished by the large setae on a bulging clypeus, minute size, and wing veins that are nearly straight and evenly diverging from wing base. Haromyia does not fit readily into any contemporary dolichopodid subfamily, although it superficially resembles the Enliniinae and Achalcinae. Haromyia should be regarded as incertae sedis until the dolichopodid subfamilies can be refined, particularly to better incorporate the tropical diversity of this large family. Key words: Neotropical, micro-dolichopodid, Enlinia, Harmstonia, West Indies, Achalcinae, clypeal setae Introduction Robinson’s monograph of the Dolichopodidae of Dominica (Robinson 1975), a product of the multi-year Bredin- Archbold-Smithsonian Biological Survey, documented 113 species in 30 genera from the island. Three new genera, Cryptopygiella Robinson, Dominicomyia Robinson, Micromedetera Robinson, and 69 new species were described in that work (Robinson 1975).
