This work was based on the investigation of very rich material collected by Polish and Hungarian entomologists in North Korea in 1959-1990. The collections are kept in the Museum and Institute of Zoology of , the Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, in the Institute of Environmental Sciences of the Jagiellonian University, Cracow, and in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest. In total, these unique collections include more than 70 thousand specimens collected in almost all regions of North Korea. Altogether, 99 ant species from 35 genera and 7 subfamilies, including 6 newly described species and 35 new to North Korea have been found; 17 species have been excluded from the list of the North Korean fauna. The monograph includes review of species, taxonomic and zoogeographical analysis of the Korean myrmecofauna, and the comparison of this fauna with that of the adjacent regions of Eastern Asia. A key for determination of all taxa of North Korean ants is also provided. Key words.— Ants, Formicidae, taxonomy, key, zoogeography. North Korea, East Palaearctic.

    NOTES ON THE RUSSIAN ENDEMIC ANT GENUS A ULA COPONE ARNOLDI (HYMENOPTERA: FORMICIDAE)* BY ROBERT W. TAYLOR Australian National Insect Collection CSIRO, Division of Entomology P. O. Box 1700, Canberra City, A.C.T. Australia INTRODUCTION The ponerine ant genus Aulacopone, and its only known species A. relicta, were described by Arnoldi (1930) from a unique dealate female collected at Alazapin, near Lenkoran (38 45'N., 48 50'E.), in Azerbaydzhan S.S.R., near its border with Iran. The specimen was taken in galleries of the formicine ant Lasius emarginatus (Olivier), under the bark of an oak stump, in Talisch mid-montane forest. The holotype, which I have not seen, is reportedly in the collection of the Zoological Institute, Leningrad. A second, previously unreported dealate female of A. relicta, now in the Arnoldi collection at the Institute of Evolutionary Animal Morphology, Moscow, was taken by Arnoldi on Mt. Gugljaband, near Alekseevka, Azerbaydzhan, in 1936. The only important reference to this species, apart from Ar- noldi's paper, is in Brown's (1958a) reclassification of tribe Ectatom- mini. These articles by Arnoldi and Brown are essential references to this paper. Aulacopone is the only extant genus of subfamily Ponerinae with known distribution limited to some part of Holarctica. In addition it is one of only two ant genera known exclusively from the Soviet Union, the other being Rossomyrmex Arnoldi (subfamily Formi- cinae). Following a recent visit to Moscow (under the Australia/U.S.S.R. Science Exchange Agreement) I was permitted by Dr. Arnoldi and Dr. A. A. Zakharov to carry the over-glued Mt.

    Relictual Ant Lineages (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) and Their Evolutionary Implications

    Myrmecological News 22 55-58 Vienna, February 2016 Relictual ant lineages (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) and their evolutionary implications Marcio R. PIE & Rodrigo M. FEITOSA Abstract Due to their widespread distribution, range of adaptations, local abundance, and species diversity, ants are a major component of terrestrial communities worldwide. However, such high ecological prevalence is not shared among all ant lineages, with four ant genera – Camponotus , Pheidole , Strumigenys , and Crematogaster – accounting for a dispro- portionately large share of ant diversity. As a consequence, the study of variation in ant diversity has hitherto focused on testing whether more species-rich clades or regions are associated with disproportionately higher speciation and / or lower extinction rates. In this study, we investigate an intriguing but largely overlooked phenomenon in ants: the exis- tence of ancient, species-poor lineages. We used both analytical and simulation results to assess evolutionary scenarios that could lead to current levels of ant diversity. We found that such relictual lineages are highly unlikely given constant- rate models of speciation and extinction. In particular, such old, species-poor lineages are much more likely to either go extinct, or to generate more species than currently observed. The possible mechanisms leading to such relictual lineages are discussed, particularly with respect to current scenarios of early ant evolutionary history.

The Union's objective is to promote and encourage the protection and sustainable utilisation of living resources. Several thousand scientists and experts from all continents form part of a network supporting the work of its six Commissions: threatened species, protected areas, ecology, sustainable development, environmental law and environmental education and training. Its thematic programmes include tropical forests, wetlands, marine ecosystems, plants, the Sahel, Antarctica, population and sustainable development, and women in conservation. These activities enable lUCN and its members to develop sound policies and programmes for the conservation of biological diversity and sustainable development of natural resources. WCMC - THE WORLD CONSERVATION MONITORING CENTRE The World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC) is a joint venture between the three partners in the World Conservation Strategy, the World Conservation Union (lUCN), the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Its mission is to support conservation and sustainable development by collecting and analysing global conservation data so that decisions affecting biological resources are based on the best available information. WCMC has developed a global overview database of the world's biological diversity that includes threatened plant and animal species, habitats of conservation concern, critical sites, protected areas of the world, and the utilisation and trade in wildlife species and products.

Founded in 1948, lUCN has nearly 600 members representing 116 countries. Its six Commissions comprise a global network of experts on threatened species, protected areas, ecology, environmental planning, environmental law, and environmental education. Its thematic programmes include tropical forests, wetlands, marine ecosystems, plants, oceanic islands, the Sahel, Antarctica, and population and sustainable development. THE lUCN CONSERVATION MONITORING CENTRE The Conservation Monitoring Centre (CMC) is the division of lUCN that provides an information service to the Union, its members, and the conservation and development communities. CMC has developed an integrated and cross-referenced global database on animals, plants and habitats of conservation concern, on protected areas throughout the world, and on the international trade in wildlife species and products. CMC produces a wide variety of specialist outputs and reports based on the analysis of this data, including such major publications as the Red Data Books and Protected Areas Directories, which are now recognised as the authoritative reference works in their field. Other lUCN Centres focus on Environmental Law, and Conservation for Development. Collectively, this information and expertise is used to assist lUCN and its members to develop conservation policy and implement programmes, and to promote a greater awareness of the need for sound conservation practice by the international development community.
