  • From Characters of the Female Reproductive Tract
    Phylogeny and Classification of Caraboidea Mus. reg. Sci. nat. Torino, 1998: XX LCE. (1996, Firenze, Italy) 107-170 James K. LIEBHERR and Kipling W. WILL* Inferring phylogenetic relationships within Carabidae (Insecta, Coleoptera) from characters of the female reproductive tract ABSTRACT Characters of the female reproductive tract, ovipositor, and abdomen are analyzed using cladi­ stic parsimony for a comprehensive representation of carabid beetle tribes. The resulting cladogram is rooted at the family Trachypachidae. No characters of the female reproductive tract define the Carabidae as monophyletic. The Carabidac exhibit a fundamental dichotomy, with the isochaete tri­ bes Metriini and Paussini forming the adelphotaxon to the Anisochaeta, which includes Gehringiini and Rhysodini, along with the other groups considered member taxa in Jeannel's classification. Monophyly of Isochaeta is supported by the groundplan presence of a securiform helminthoid scle­ rite at the spermathecal base, and a rod-like, elongate laterotergite IX leading to the explosion cham­ ber of the pygidial defense glands. Monophyly of the Anisochaeta is supported by the derived divi­ sion of gonocoxa IX into a basal and apical portion. Within Anisochaeta, the evolution of a secon­ dary spermatheca-2, and loss ofthe primary spermathcca-I has occurred in one lineage including the Gehringiini, Notiokasiini, Elaphrini, Nebriini, Opisthiini, Notiophilini, and Omophronini. This evo­ lutionary replacement is demonstrated by the possession of both spermatheca-like structures in Gehringia olympica Darlington and Omophron variegatum (Olivier). The adelphotaxon to this sper­ matheca-2 clade comprises a basal rhysodine grade consisting of Clivinini, Promecognathini, Amarotypini, Apotomini, Melaenini, Cymbionotini, and Rhysodini. The Rhysodini and Clivinini both exhibit a highly modified laterotergite IX; long and thin, with or without a clavate lateral region.

Bell and Bell (1982) excellently revised Omoglymmius and established eleven subgenera to classify the congeneric species. The nominotypical subgenus is the largest with 97 species (Lorenz 2005, Bell and Bell 2009, Hovorka 2015).

  • Coleoptera: Carabidae) Peter W
    30 THE GREAT LAKES ENTOMOLOGIST Vol. 42, Nos. 1 & 2 An Annotated Checklist of Wisconsin Ground Beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) Peter W. Messer1 Abstract A survey of Carabidae in the state of Wisconsin, U.S.A. yielded 87 species new to the state and incorporated 34 species previously reported from the state but that were not included in an earlier catalogue, bringing the total number of species to 489 in an annotated checklist. Collection data are provided in full for the 87 species new to Wisconsin but are limited to county occurrences for 187 rare species previously known in the state. Recent changes in nomenclature pertinent to the Wisconsin fauna are cited. ____________________ The Carabidae, commonly known as ‘ground beetles’, with 34, 275 described species worldwide is one of the three most species-rich families of extant beetles (Lorenz 2005). Ground beetles are often chosen for study because they are abun- dant in most terrestrial habitats, diverse, taxonomically well known, serve as sensitive bioindicators of habitat change, easy to capture, and morphologically pleasing to the collector. North America north of Mexico accounts for 2635 species which were listed with their geographic distributions (states and provinces) in the catalogue by Bousquet and Larochelle (1993). In Table 4 of the latter refer- ence, the state of Wisconsin was associated with 374 ground beetle species. That is more than the surrounding states of Iowa (327) and Minnesota (323), but less than states of Illinois (452) and Michigan (466). The total count for Minnesota was subsequently increased to 433 species (Gandhi et al. 2005). Wisconsin county distributions are known for 15 species of tiger beetles (subfamily Cicindelinae) (Brust 2003) with collection records documented for Tetracha virginica (Grimek 2009).

Both species belong to basically Oriental genera, and both extend their higher taxa further eastward. Yamatosa schawalleri n. sp., is the first member of its genus from Borneo. Yamatosa was to be expected from Borneo 2 stuttgarter beiträge zur naturkunde Ser. A, Nr. 636 as other species were already known from Java, Formosa and Japan. Omoglymmius (Pyxiglymmius) cycloderus n. sp., is more remarkable, coming from the small island of Batanta, which is near New Guinea, and which has probably been connected to it at times of lowered sea levels.

  • Carabids New to VA
    Banisteria, Number 40, pages 42-48 © 2012 Virginia Natural History Society New and Additional Records of Ground Beetles and Wrinkled Bark Beetles for Virginia (Coleoptera: Carabidae, Rhysodidae) Steven M. Roble Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation Division of Natural Heritage 217 Governor Street Richmond, Virginia 23219 Richard L. Hoffman* Virginia Museum of Natural History 21 Starling Avenue Martinsville, Virginia 24112 ABSTRACT Three ground beetles (Carabidae), Dyschirius erythrocerus LeConte, Badister f. flavipes LeConte, and B. grandiceps Casey, and one wrinkled bark beetle (Rhysodidae), Clinidium apertum allegheniense Bell & Bell, are reported from Virginia for the first time. Specimen data also are presented for five species, Pasimachus punctulatus Haldeman, Dyschirius larochellei Bousquet, D. pallipennis (Say), Agonoleptus rotundicollis (Haldeman), and Agonum rufipes Dejean, recently added to the Virginia carabid list (without details) in Bousquet’s (2012b) revised North American checklist. Additional records are provided for Tachys oblitus Casey, first reported for Virginia by Hoffman (2010). Cicindela puritana Horn is removed from the Virginia list due to a lack of records. The number of carabids (530) and rhysodids (5) recorded from the state now totals 535 taxa (528 species and seven subspecies). Key words: beetle, Carabidae, Rhysodidae, Coleoptera, Virginia. INTRODUCTION specimen of Oodes americanus Dejean and Will & Liebherr (1997) described Loxandrus icarus from The varied habitats in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The latter authors also synonymized L. inferus Virginia support a diverse ground beetle (Carabidae) Allen with L. velocipes Casey, both of which had been fauna, now known to exceed more than 500 species, listed for Virginia by Bousquet & Larochelle (1993). with the total continuing to increase with additional Will (1999) added Lophoglossus vernix Casey based on sampling, curatorial efforts, taxonomic revisions, and a USNM specimen bearing a state label only.
