Gordon Northern Plains Entomology P. O. Box 65 Willow City, ND 58384, USA [email protected] F. Guillermo González Nocedal 6455 La Reina Santiago, CHILE [email protected] www.coccinellidae.cl Abstract. Nine new species of Hyperaspis from various South American localities are described, illustrated, and compared with previously described taxa. New taxa are: Hyperaspis luciae, H. corcovado, H. divaricata, H. humboldti, H. mimica, H. praecipua, H. unimaculosa, H. drechseli, and H. esmeraldas. Hyperaspis pectoralis Crotch is recognized as a valid species of Hyperaspis and integrated into the existing classification. Key words. Hyperaspis, new species, South America Introduction. Gordon and Canepari (2008) revised the South American species of Hyperaspidini. Subsequently González and Gordon (2009) described three additional species from Argentina and Chile. In the course of revising the similar appearing members of Brachiacanthini, specimens of that tribe were borrowed from many institutions. Mixed among these were examples of nine new species of Hyperaspis Chevrolat not available for the 2008 revision. These new taxa are described, illustrated, and compared to previously named species in Gordon and Canepari. In addition, Hyperaspis pectoralis Crotch is recognized as a valid species of Hyperaspis and integrated into the existing classification. Materials. Genitalia terminology and conventions used by Gordon and Canepari (2008) are followed here.

JANSON, 28, MUSEUM STREET. 1874. — PREFACE. Having spent many happy hours with the lamented author in the examination of the beautiful forms of which this book treats, I have felt it a pleasant thing to be associated, even in so humble a capacity, with its introduction to the Entomological world ; and the little service I have had the privilege of rendering in the revision of the proof-sheets of the latter half of the work, has been quite a labour of love enabling me to offer a slight testimony of affection to a kind friend, and of my personal interest in that family of the Coleoptera which had first attracted my attention by the singular loveliness of its numerous species. A careful revision by the author himself would have been of incalculable value to the work ; its usefulness would also have been greatly enhanced, had it been possible for him to have made those modifications and additions which his investigations in America afforded materials for. But, of course, this was not possible. There is, however, the conso- lation of knowing that the student can obtain the results of those later researches, in the author's memoir, entitled " Revision of the Coccinellidse of the United States," to which Mr Janson refers in the note which follows this preface. When, in the autumn of 1872, Mr Crotch took his departure for the United States of America, as the first VI PREFACE.

Hawaii has a long and successful history of coccinellid introductions for biological control of pest insects and powdery mildew. This paper discusses the names of five established species Chilocorus( nigrita (Fabricius), Hippodamia quinquesignata ambigua LeConte, Psyllobora vigintimaculata (Say), Sasajis- cymnus anomalus (Chapin), and Scymnus ambulans Blackburn), giving spelling corrections, changed generic combinations, and one new combination (Sasajis- cymnus anomalus (Chapin), n. comb.) to allow accurate usage of these names in the Hawaiian literature. Justification is also provided for the use of Hyperaspis pantherina Fursch which, until Nishida (2002), appeared in Hawaiian literature as Hyperaspis jocosa (Mulsant). Key words: Coccinellidae, name changes, Sasajiscymnus anomalus (Chapin) N. comb. In the process of updating an earlier (1989) and Booth (1998). The third name review of Hawaiian Coccinellidae (Leeper change not currently recognized by ITIS, 1976) a number of name changes were Scymnus ambulans Blackburn, is based found that have not appeared in Hawai- on a recent determination (Slipinski et al. ian literature, primarily the Proceedings 2012).

  • History of the Biodiversity of Ladybirds (Coccinellidae) at the Black Sea Coast of the Russian Caucasus in the Last 120 Years—
    insects Article History of the Biodiversity of Ladybirds (Coccinellidae) at the Black Sea Coast of the Russian Caucasus in the Last 120 Years—Does the Landscape Transformation and Establishment of Harmonia axyridis Have an Impact? Andrzej O. Bie ´nkowskiand Marina J. Orlova-Bienkowskaja * A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution, Russian Academy of Sciences, 119071 Moscow, Russia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 October 2020; Accepted: 21 November 2020; Published: 23 November 2020 Simple Summary: Studies of the history of regional insect fauna are important for understanding the changes in ecosystems and are therefore crucial for conservation decisions. The harlequin ladybird is a global invader that causes the decline of native ladybirds in some countries. Therefore, it is advisable to monitor the ladybird fauna in regions recently occupied by this species. We analyzed the dynamics of the fauna at the main sea resort of Russia over a period of 120 years to determine the following: (1) how the ladybird biodiversity changed during the intensive landscape transformation; (2) what alien species introduced for pest control have occurred to date; and (3) what the impact is of the harlequin ladybird on the ladybird fauna. We examined specimens collected by us and 54 other collectors including specimens from old museum collections and reconstructed the history of the biodiversity like a picture from puzzle pieces. Surprisingly, landscape transformation did not cause a decrease but rather an increase in ladybird biodiversity; most of the species recorded before 1930 have occurred to date, and 23 other species have spread to the region.

The archipelagos of Madeira and Selvagens The oceanic archipelagos of Madeira and Selvagens are located in the eastern Atlantic, between 30-33ºN and 15-17ºW, being part of the Macaronesia biogeographical region. The archipelago of Madeira is composed of Madeira Island, Porto Santo Island and its surrounding islets, and the Desertas islands, which include Deserta Grande, Bugio and Ilhéu Chão (Fig. 1). This archi- pelago is distanced from the Iberian Peninsula by 1000 km, but its distance to the nearest mainland (coast of Morocco) is just 600 km. All the islands of Madeira archipelago are volcanic in origin and have originat- ed from a single volcanic building – the Madeira-Porto Santo complex. The rugged orography and the altitudinal span of Madeira Island led to the occurrence of some natu- ral habitat-types which are distributed along the altitudinal gradient (see Plate I).
