New Nomenclatural Acts New Nomenclatural Acts New Tribe and Subtribes A new tribe and subtribes are established as follows. Subfamily Attageninae Eckfeldattagenini tribus n. is erected and the type genus Eckfeldattagenus Háva & Wappler, 2014 designated. This new tribe differs from the other tribes in the subfamily Attageninae by the antennae consisting of 11 antennomeres; antennal club consists of two antennomeres. Last antennal antennomere is long, oval. Pronotum is long trapezoidal, with a clear wrinkled surface structure. Subfamily Megatominae Adelaidiina Háva subtribus n. is erected and the type genus Adelaidia Blackburn, 1891 designated. This new subtribe differs from the other subtribes in the subfamily Megatominae by the combination of a median ocellus, femora and tibiae strongly compressed, inconspicuous antennal fossae. Anthrenocerina Háva subtribus n. is erected and the type genus Anth­ renocerus Arrow, 1915b designated. This new subtribe differs from the other subtribes in the subfamily Megatominae by the combination of a median ocellus, antennae with three- antennomered club, setation on dorsal and ventral surfaces.

  • Occurrence, Ecological Function and Medical Importance of Dermestid Beetle Hastisetae
    Occurrence, ecological function and medical importance of dermestid beetle hastisetae Enrico Ruzzier1, Marcin Kadej2 and Andrea Battisti1 1 Department of Agronomy, Food, Natural Resources, Animals and the Environment (DAFNAE), Università degli Studi di Padova, Padova, Italy 2 Department of Invertebrate Biology, Evolution and Conservation, University of Wrocªaw, Wrocªaw, Poland ABSTRACT Hastisetae are a specific group of detachable setae characterizing the larvae of Megatom- inae (Coleoptera: Dermestidae), commonly known as carpet and khapra beetles. These setae are located on both thoracic and abdominal tergites and they are the primary defense of the larva against invertebrate predators. According to previous studies, the main purpose of hastisetae is to work as a mechanical obstacle, but they are also capable to block and kill a predator. Hastisetae, single or aggregate, function as an extremely efficient mechanical trap, based on an entangling mechanism of cuticular structures (spines and hairs) and body appendages (antennae, legs and mouthparts). It is believed that this defensive system evolved primarily to contrast predation by invertebrates, however it has been observed that hastisetae may affect vertebrates as well. Although information on the impacts of vertebrate predators of the beetles is lacking, hastisetae have been shown to be a possible threat for human health as an important contaminant of stored products (food and fabric), work and living environment. Review of past and recent literature on dermestid larvae has revealed that despite these structures indicated as one of the distinctive characters in species identification, very little is known about their ultrastructure, evolution and mechanism of action. In the present work, we will provide the state of knowledge on hastisetae in Dermestidae and we will present and Submitted 1 July 2019 discuss future research perspectives intended to bridge the existing knowledge gaps.

Altogether, 1,564 species taxa (identifi ed at least to the genus level) from 25 orders of Hexapoda have been recorded from the Socotra Archipelago to date. In addition, members of Diplura and Ephemeroptera are known from the archipelago as well, but they have not been identifi ed so far. The most speciose order in Socotra are beetles (Coleoptera) with 540 species. The total number of endemic taxa described from the archipelago is 662 species, which represents 42% of all known species. The vast majority of species is known from the main Socotra Island (1,520 species, 635 endemic taxa). The diversity of insects in Socotra is briefl y commented on and compared with the nearest archipelago – the Seychelles. Key words. Hexapoda, biodiversity, endemism, insect survey, Socotra, Yemen Introduction An extensive research of invertebrate diversity of the Socotra Archipelago in the last 20 years resulted in numerous publications containing descriptions of new taxa as well as new faunistic records from Socotra.
