  • Hazards for Nature? Avalanches As a Promotor of Biodiversity. a Case Study on the Invertebrate Fauna in the Gesäuse National Park (Styria, Austria)
    5th Symposium Conference Volume for Research in Protected Areas pages 389 - 398 10 to 12 June 2013, Mittersill Natural Hazards – Hazards for Nature? Avalanches as a promotor of biodiversity. A case study on the invertebrate fauna in the Gesäuse National Park (Styria, Austria) Christian Komposch, Thomas Frieß & Daniel Kreiner Abstract Avalanches are feared by humans and considered “catastrophic” due to their unpredictable and destructive force. But this anthropocentric perspective fails to capture the potential ecological value of these natural disturbances. The Gesäuse National Park is a model-region for investigations of such highly dynamic events because of its distinct relief and extreme weather conditions. This project aims to record and analyse the animal assemblages in these highly dynamic habitats as well as document succession and population structure. 1) Dynamic processes lead to one of the very few permanent and natural vegetationless habitat types in Central Europe outside the alpine zone – i. e. screes and other rocky habitats at various successional stages. In addition to the tight mosaic distribution of a variety of habitats over larger areas, avalanche tracks also offer valuable structures like dead wood and rocks. Remarkable is the sympatric occurrence of the three harvestmen species Trogulus tricarinatus, T. nepaeformis und T. tingiformis, a species diversity peak of spiders, true-bugs and ants; and the newly recorded occurrence of Formica truncorum. 2) The presence of highly adapted species and coenoses reflect the extreme environmental conditions, specific vegetation cover and microclimate of these habitats. Several of the recorded taxa are rare, endangered and endemic. The very rare dwarf spider Trichoncus hackmani is a new record for Styria and the stenotopic and critically endangered wolf-spider Acantholycosa lignaria is dependent on lying dead wood.

    Myrmecologische Nachrichten 8 263 - 270 Wien, September 2006 Biogeography, diversity, and vertical distribution of ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in Vorarlberg, Austria Florian GLASER Abstract Information on biogeographical composition and vertical distribution patterns of regional ant faunas in the Alps is relatively scarce. In this study I investigated species number, vertical distribution and zoogeographical composition of the ant fauna of Vorarlberg (Austria). A total number of 68 species and 4 subfamilies of ants were recorded in the region. Using information from literature these ant species were related to biogeographical elements and classes. The major part of the ant fauna is associated with the mixed and deciduous forest zone (58 %) and the coniferous forest zone (31 %). A few ant species belong to the Mediterranean zone (10 %). Regarding the biogeographical composition the regional ant fauna is dominated by North-Transpalaearctic (13 spp., 19 %), Boreomontane (7 spp., 10 %), Euro- Siberian (13 spp., 19 %) and South-Palaearctic elements (7 spp., 10 %). Total species number and species numbers of biogeographical classes and elements were analysed relative to altitude. Total species number and species numbers of the class of mixed and deciduous forest and Mediterranean zone as well as the biogeographical elements of these classes decrease significantly with altitude. In the class of the coniferous forest zone, North-Transpalaearctic and Montane elements decrease at higher elevations, while Alpine-Endemic and Boreomontane elements increase with altitude. Key words: Formicidae, elevation, zoogeography, ants, Eastern Alps, Europe. Mag. Florian Glaser, Technisches Büro für Biologie, Gabelsbergerstr. 41, A-6020 Innsbruck, Austria.

NASH,2 ZOLTÁN VARGA1 and 3 SZABOLCS LENGYEL 1Department of Evolutionary Zoology and Human Biology, University of Debrecen, Debrecen, Hungary, 2Centre for Social Evolution, Department of Biology, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark and 3GINOP Sustainable Ecosystems Group, Department of Tisza Research, Danube Research Institute, Centre for Ecological Research, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Debrecen, Hungary Abstract. 1. Land use intensification is a general threat to biodiversity, but many species depend on low-intensity agricultural ecosystems. One example is European mountain meadow ecosystems, traditionally managed by hay harvesting or livestock grazing. Abandoning management often causes population declines, local extinctions and biotic homogenisation in these meadows. 2. We studied changes in the Myrmica host ant communities of the xerophilic form of the ant-parasitic Alcon Blue butterfly(Maculinea alcon) in four hay meadows in the Bükk mountains of Hungary between 2000–2007 and 2018. Abandonment started in this region in the 1970s, accelerated in the 1980s, and culminated in the 1990s. 3. We found that the Myrmica ant community has changed substantially in less than two decades. Diversity of the ant community always decreased, and species composition became more homogeneous at two sites. Habitat suitability for Maculinea butterflies decreased at three sites and increased at only one site, where management was restarted 20 years after abandonment.

Biodiversity Data Journal 4: e8050. doi: 10.3897/BDJ.4.e8050 Abstract Background The checklist of British and Irish aculeate Hymenoptera (Apoidea, Chrysidoidea and Vespoidea) is revised. Species distribution is summarised for all species at the level of country (England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and Isle of Man). New information The 601 native species represent an increase of 25 on the 1978 checklist, comprising mostly new discoveries. This increase is nearly balanced by the 23 species now presumed to be extinct in Britain and Ireland. Keywords Britain, Ireland, bees, ants, wasps, fauna © Else G et al.

Abstract Go to: The taxonomy of the myrmecophilous Maculinea alcon group (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) is highly debated. The host-plant and host-ant usage of these butterflies have conventionally been important in their identification. Maculinea ‘rebeli’ has generally been considered to be the xerophilous form of Ma. alcon (Ma. alcon X hereafter) with Gentiana cruciata as initial food plant. However, the type locality and all other known sites of Ma. rebeli are found above the coniferous zone, and are well separated from the lower regions where Ma.

Ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) as host and intruder: recent advances and future directions in the study of exploitative strategies Table S1: This table summarizes host/parasite relationships that have been described or discussed in the literature since 2000. Host and parasite nomenclature is up‐to‐date based on AntWeb.org, but note that some of the taxonomy is controversial and/or not fully resolved. Names are likely to change further in coming years. Due to changing nomenclature, it can be challenging to track which species have been well‐studied. We provide recently changed species and genus names parenthetically. In addition, we have split this table to show recent taxonomic revisions, compilations (e.g. tables in empirical papers), reviews, books, or species descriptions supporting relationships between hosts and parasites in one column and articles studying characteristics of host/parasite relationships in a second column. For well‐studied species, we limit the ‘primary research’ column to five citations, which are selected to cover different topics and different research teams when such diverse citations exist. Because of the active work on taxonomy in many groups, some misinformation has been inadvertently propagated in previous articles.
