Lieferung Biologische Gewässergüteuntersuchungen haben in Österreich bereits eine lange Tradition. 1968 wurde vom Bundesministerium für Land- und Forstwirtschaft das erste „Biologische Gütebild“, eine flächendeckende, überblicksmäßige Darstellung über die saprobiologische Einstufung österreichischer Fliessgewässer, veröffentlicht. Die landesweite einheitliche Untersuchung von Fliessgewässern wurde 1990 in der Wassergüte-Erhebungsverordnung zum Hydrographiegesetz gesetzlich geregelt. Im Rahmen dieser Verordnung wird neben der physikalisch-chemischen Wasserqualität einmal pro Jahr auch die sapro-/biologische Gewässergüte österreichischer Fliessgewässer an 244 Messstellen untersucht. Neben der Notwendigkeit, die traditionelle saprobiologische Güteauswertung zu aktualiserien, hat sich aber auch gezeigt, dass bei den vielfältigen Möglichkeiten von Gewässerbeeinträchtigungen diese Methode allein nicht mehr ausreicht, den tatsächlichen Zustand der Gewässer aus biologischer Sicht zu beschreiben. Die Forderung nach der Entwicklung neuer, ökosystembezogener Analysen- bzw. Bewertungsmethoden gewann durch die Tatsache, dass in der Wasserrechtsgesetz-Novelle 1985 bzw. 1990 die Erhaltung der ökologischen Funktionsfähigkeit als maßgebliches Ziel des Gwässerschutzes gesetzlich verankert wurde, zusätzlich an Bedeutung und Dringlichkeit. Aus diesem Grund stellt die vorliegende Arbeit mit der Erstellung eines auf österreichische Verhältnisse abgestimmten Saprobienkataloges sowie der erstmaligen Übersicht über die heimische Limnofauna nicht nur einen Meilenstein für die biologische Gütebeurteilung österreichischer Fliessgewässer dar. Mit Entwicklung einer systemisierten Bewertung der Gewässerbiozönose im Hinblick auf funktionelle Ernährungstypen und längenzonale Verteilung nach biozönotischen Regionen ist es den Autoren gelungen, eine wesentliche Grundlage für die Beurteilung der ökologischen Funktionsfähigkeit der Fliessgewässer zu schaffen, die in ihrer Bedeutung auch über die Landesgrenzen hinaus wirken wird. Dem Projektleiter und seinen MitarbeiterInnen darf an dieser Stelle für die sorgfältige und umfassende Bearbeitung sowie ihr enormes Engagement besonders gedankt werden. Wien, im Mai 1995 Bundesministerium für Land- und Forstwirtschaft Wasserwirtschaftskataster _____________________________________________ Fauna Aquatica Austriaca - Lieferung 2002 Einleitung 3 Vorwort zur 2. Lieferung Die Gewährleistung einer einheitlichen Datengrundlage bildet die grundlegende Voraussetzung für die Vergleichbarkeit von Untersuchungsergebnissen und für qualitätssichernde Maßnahmen im Rahmen des nationalen Gütemonitorings von Fließgewässern. Ein wichtiger Bestandteil dieser Standardisierung ist die Vereinheitlichung der ökologischen, insbesondere der saprobiellen Einstufungen für Makrozoobenthos. Mit dem, im Auftrag des BMLFUW erstellten Einstufungskatalogs benthischer Evertebraten (Fauna Aquatica Austriaca, MOOG (Ed.) 1995) wurde ein Katalog mit dem Anspruch österreichweiter Gültigkeit erstellt. Dieser wurde nun überarbeitet und durch zusätzliche Organismengruppen ergänzt. Die aktualisierte und ergänzte Version der Fauna Aquatica Austriaca stellt auch eine wesentliche Grundlage für die Umsetzung der EU-Wasserrahmenrichtlinie dar. Den Bearbeitern und Autoren darf der beste Dank für ihre Bemühungen und ihr Engagement ausgesprochen werden.

  • Chironominae 8.1
    CHIRONOMINAE 8.1 SUBFAMILY CHIRONOMINAE 8 DIAGNOSIS: Antennae 4-8 segmented, rarely reduced. Labrum with S I simple, palmate or plumose; S II simple, apically fringed or plumose; S III simple; S IV normal or sometimes on pedicel. Labral lamellae usually well developed, but reduced or absent in some taxa. Mentum usually with 8-16 well sclerotized teeth; sometimes central teeth or entire mentum pale or poorly sclerotized; rarely teeth fewer than 8 or modified as seta-like projections. Ventromental plates well developed and usually striate, but striae reduced or vestigial in some taxa; beard absent. Prementum without dense brushes of setae. Body usually with anterior and posterior parapods and procerci well developed; setal fringe not present, but sometimes with bifurcate pectinate setae. Penultimate segment sometimes with 1-2 pairs of ventral tubules; antepenultimate segment sometimes with lateral tubules. Anal tubules usually present, reduced in brackish water and marine taxa. NOTESTES: Usually the most abundant subfamily (in terms of individuals and taxa) found on the Coastal Plain of the Southeast. Found in fresh, brackish and salt water (at least one truly marine genus). Most larvae build silken tubes in or on substrate; some mine in plants, dead wood or sediments; some are free- living; some build transportable cases. Many larvae feed by spinning silk catch-nets, allowing them to fill with detritus, etc., and then ingesting the net; some taxa are grazers; some are predacious. Larvae of several taxa (especially Chironomus) have haemoglobin that gives them a red color and the ability to live in low oxygen conditions. With only one exception (Skutzia), at the generic level the larvae of all described (as adults) southeastern Chironominae are known.

  • Dytiscid Water Beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) of the Yukon
    Dytiscid water beetles of the Yukon FRONTISPIECE. Neoscutopterus horni (Crotch), a large, black species of dytiscid beetle that is common in sphagnum bog pools throughout the Yukon Territory. 491 Dytiscid Water Beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) of the Yukon DAVID J. LARSON Department of Biology, Memorial University of Newfoundland St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada A1B 3X9 Abstract. One hundred and thirteen species of Dytiscidae (Coleoptera) are recorded from the Yukon Territory. The Yukon distribution, total geographical range and habitat of each of these species is described and multi-species patterns are summarized in tabular form. Several different range patterns are recognized with most species being Holarctic or transcontinental Nearctic boreal (73%) in lentic habitats. Other major range patterns are Arctic (20 species) and Cordilleran (12 species), while a few species are considered to have Grassland (7), Deciduous forest (2) or Southern (5) distributions. Sixteen species have a Beringian and glaciated western Nearctic distribution, i.e. the only Nearctic Wisconsinan refugial area encompassed by their present range is the Alaskan/Central Yukon refugium; 5 of these species are closely confined to this area while 11 have wide ranges that extend in the arctic and/or boreal zones east to Hudson Bay. Résumé. Les dytiques (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) du Yukon. Cent treize espèces de dytiques (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) sont connues au Yukon. Leur répartition au Yukon, leur répartition globale et leur habitat sont décrits et un tableau résume les regroupements d’espèces. La répartition permet de reconnaître plusieurs éléments: la majorité des espèces sont holarctiques ou transcontinentales-néarctiques-boréales (73%) dans des habitats lénitiques. Vingt espèces sont arctiques, 12 sont cordillériennes, alors qu’un petit nombre sont de la prairie herbeuse (7), ou de la forêt décidue (2), ou sont australes (5).

This survey was to mirror the locations and methodology of a previous survey undertaken during autumn 2016 and spring 2017. Colin Plant Associates also undertook the aquatic invertebrate sampling of this previous survey. 1.1.2 The 2016-17 aquatic survey was commissioned with the primary objective of establishing a baseline aquatic invertebrate species inventory and to determine the quality of the aquatic habitats present across both the Nature Reserve and Southern Marsh areas of the Crossness Sewage Treatment Works. The surveyors were asked to sample at twenty-four, pre-selected sample station locations, twelve in each area. Aquatic Coleoptera and Heteroptera (beetles and true bugs) were selected as target groups. A report of the previous survey was submitted in Sept 2017 (Plant 2017). 1.1.3 During December 2017 a large-scale pollution event took place and untreated sewage escaped into a section of the Crossness Nature Reserve. The primary point of egress was Nature Reserve Sample Station 1 (NR1) though because of the connectivity of much of the waterbody network on the marsh other areas were affected.

  • Comments on Some Species in Tribe Chironomini
    Comments on some species in tribe Chironomini Henk Vallenduuk Prof. Gerbrandystraat 10, 5463BK Veghel, Netherlands. E-mail: [email protected] During the work of identifying Chironomini collected at various localities in the Netherlands, I made some observations in species interpretation that I think are useful to share with the readers of the Chironomus Newsletter on Chironomidae Research. I hope that in particular ecologists and other users of larval identi- fication keys will find the below comments helpful. Reinterpretation of some species in Chironomus Chironomus macani I obtained males and females from single-reared larvae. Peter Langton identified them as Chironomus (Chaetolabis) macani Freeman, 1948 and confirmed that the male imagines are conspecific with the holo- type of Chironomus (Chaetolabis) macani, held in the Natural History Museum in London, but not with those of Prof. Wolfgang Wülker presently kept in the Zoologische Staatssammlung, München. The Wül- ker’s specimens thus do not belong to the true C. macani and should be renamed (Langton & Vallenduuk 2013). The larvae of both species are morphologically very similar but can be differentiated. Chironomus dorsalis Chironomus (Lobochironomus) longipes Staeger, 1839 was listed as a junior synonym of Chironomus (Lo- bochironomus) dorsalis Meigen, 1818 by Spies & Sæther (2004). However, the name Chironomus (Chi- ronomus) dorsalis Meigen, 1818 has also been used (e.g. Strenzke 1959). Chironomus dorsalis Meigen sensu Strenzke is a misidentification and synonymous withC. alpestris Goetghebuer, 1934 (Sæther & Spies 2013). I reared single larvae of C. dorsalis Meigen and C. alpestris Goetghebuer. It appears that the imago of C. longipes described by Shilova (1980) as Einfeldia does not match with C.

Altogether, 3,606 species were identi- fi ed. In the fi nal monograph resulting from our research (BARTÁK M., KUBÍK Š. (eds.) 2005: Diptera of Podyjí National Park and its Environs. – ČZU Praha, 432 pp.) we reported 137 records of new species in the Czech Republic and another 155 in Moravia. The most striking feature of the Podyjí NP’s Diptera fauna is the surprisingly frequent occurrence of species with clear affi nity to mounta- inous habitats. A relatively large number of the species collected in the Podyjí NP were obviously obtained due to the effi cient collecting methods used (Malaise traps, white and yellow pan water traps, emergence traps, sweeping, car nets, etc.). The Podyjí NP proved to be very important for nature conservation, altogether 252 species included in the recent regional Red list were found (= 26.1% of all Czech species included) and several species discovered for the fi rst time in the Czech Republic by the present investigations in this area were proposed in addition to this list.
