A comprehensive revision of the Subfamily Parandrinae (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) from the Afrotropical Region is presented. Two new genera are described: Adlbauerandra and Meridiandra. The known species from the Afrotropical Region are excluded from Parandra Latreille, 1802, which resulted in the following new combinations: Acutandra beninensis (Murray, 1862), A. comoriana (Fairmaire, 1895), A. gabonica (Thomson, 1858), Adlbauerandra morettoi (Adlbauer, 2004) and Meridiandra capicola (Thomson, 1861). Eighteen new species are described: Acutandra amieti, A. barclayi, A. camiadei, A. dasilvai, A. delahayei, A. gaetani, A. garnieri, A. grobbelaarae, A. hugoi, A. jolyi, A. leduci, A. leonardi, A. lucasi, A. noellae, A. oremansi, A. plenevauxae, A. quentini, and A. vingerhoedti. The species Parandra comoriana Fairmaire, 1895 is revalidated and a lectotype is designated. Parandra beninensis Murray, 1862 and Parandra conradti Kolbe, 1893 are revalidated. A lectotype is designated for Parandra gabonica Thomson, 1858 as the designation by Quentin and Villiers (1975) was considered as invalid. Keys are presented to separate genera and all species of African Parandrinae from each other. Illustrations are provided for all the species including many special characters used in the keys. Keywords. Acutandra; Adlbauerandra; Afrotropic Region; lectotype; Meridiandra; Neandra; new genera; new species; Parandra; Parandrini; Stenandra. Introduction Thomson (1858) described the first species of Parandrinae (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) from the African Continent: Parandra gabonica. The species was described from Gabon, Ivory Coast (“Grand Bassan”), and Angola (“Benguela”), three countries located on the Atlantic coast. Three years later, Thomson (1861), in his “Monographie de la famille des Parandrides”, recorded the species only from Gabon. In the same work, Thomson (1861) described Parandra capicola from South Africa. Murray (1862), who did not know the species described by Thomson (1858, 1861), described Parandra beninensis from Nigeria (“Old Calabar”), and wrote: “For the first time a Parandra has been found in the Old World, at Old Calabar”. Later, the following species were described from Africa: Parandra thunbergii Thomson, 1867 (from South Africa–“Cap.”); Parandra conradti Kolbe, 1893 (from Tanzania–“Usambara”); P. aterrima Quedenfeldt, 1882 (from Democratic Republic of the Congo); P. comoriana Fairmaire, 1895 (from Comoros –“Comores”); and Parandra kolbei Lameere, 1903 (from Central African Republic–“Pays des Niam-Niam”). 1 2 • INSECTA MUNDI 0241, August 2012 BOUYER, DRUMONT, AND SANTOS-SILVA Lameere (1902) synonymized P. beninensis, P. aterrima, P. conradti, P. comoriana, and P. capicola with P. gabonica. However, he did not examine the types of P. aterrima and P. capicola. Lameere (1912) divided Parandra in four subgenera: Parandra s. str.; P. (Neandra); P. (Archandra); and P. (Stenandra). According to him, of these subgenera, only P. (Parandra) and P. (Stenandra) occur in Africa: the species P. (P.) gabonica, P. (P.) thumbergi [sic], and P. (Stenandra) kolbei. Quentin and Villiers (1972) considered Stenandra as different from Parandra, and described S. vadoni from Madagascar. Finally, the latest species described from Africa was Parandra morettoi Adlbauer, 2004 from the Central African Republic. Quentin and Villiers (1977) revalidated P. capicola and considered P. thunbergii as its synonym. In the same work, the authors recorded (translation): “the various synonyms of gabonica correspond only to individual variations, or differences between populations due to the wide distribution of the species throughout the Ethiopian region”. Arigony (1984) studied the species of the subgenus Parandra Latreille, 1802 with mandibles of males not falciform. Currently, the species studied by Arigony (1984) belong to several genera, and none of them is the true Parandra: Acutandra Santos-Silva, 2002; Birandra Santos-Silva, 2002; Caledonandra Santos- Silva et al., 2010; Komiyandra Santos-Silva et al., 2010, Malukandra Santos-Silva et al., 2010; Melanesiandra Santos-Silva et al., 2010; Papuandra Santos-Silva et al., 2010; and Storeyandra Santos- Silva et al., 2010. The African species included in Arigony (1984) were: Parandra (Parandra) gabonica Thomson, 1858 and P. (P.) capicola

C. L Gosling! ABSTRACT Eighty-nine species of Cerambycidae were collected during a five-year survey of the woodboring beetle fauna of the Huron Mountains in Marquette County, Michigan. Host plants were deteTITIined for 51 species. Observations were made of species abundance and phenology, and the blossoms visited by anthophilous cerambycids. The Huron Mountains area comprises approximately 13,000 ha of forested land in northern Marquette County in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. More than 7000 ha are privately owned by the Huron Mountain Club, including a designated, 2200 ha, Nature Research Area. The variety of habitats combines with differences in the nature and extent of prior disturbance to produce an exceptional diversity of forest communities, making the area particularly valuable for studies of forest insects.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Two new species of high-elevation Parandrinae (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) are described from Bolivia and Ecuador, South America. Both species are unusual in having piceous coloration over most of the dorsal surface. Parandra (Tavan- dra) santossilvai Lingafelter & Tishechkin, new species, is described from Achira, Santa Cruz Province, Bolivia, a site at 2,000 meters elevation. Acutandra caterinoi Lingafelter & Tishechkin, new species, is described from Pichincha Prov- ince, Ecuador, from sites between 1,900–2,500 meters. Illustrations, descriptions, diagnoses, and discussion of their ge- neric and subgeneric placements are included. Key words: longhorned beetles, morphology, taxonomy, Ecuador, Bolivia Introduction The Parandrinae of South America are well known, compared to other beetle groups, primarily due to the work of Antonio Santos-Silva and Ubirajara Martins. Their important contributions to the knowledge of Cerambycidae of South America brought together all the current known information on the group up to that time (Santos-Silva and Martins, 2010).

  • Species Richness and Phenology of Cerambycid Beetles in Urban Forest Fragments of Northern Delaware
    ECOLOGY AND POPULATION BIOLOGY Species Richness and Phenology of Cerambycid Beetles in Urban Forest Fragments of Northern Delaware 1 1,2 3 4 5 K. HANDLEY, J. HOUGH-GOLDSTEIN, L. M. HANKS, J. G. MILLAR, AND V. D’AMICO Ann. Entomol. Soc. Am. 1–12 (2015); DOI: 10.1093/aesa/sav005 ABSTRACT Cerambycid beetles are abundant and diverse in forests, but much about their host rela- tionships and adult behavior remains unknown. Generic blends of synthetic pheromones were used as lures in traps, to assess the species richness, and phenology of cerambycids in forest fragments in north- ern Delaware. More than 15,000 cerambycid beetles of 69 species were trapped over 2 yr. Activity periods were similar to those found in previous studies, but many species were active 1–3 wk earlier in 2012 than in 2013, probably owing to warmer spring temperatures that year. In 2012, the blends were tested with and without ethanol, a host plant volatile produced by stressed trees. Of cerambycid species trapped in sufficient numbers for statistical analysis, ethanol synergized pheromone trap catches for seven species, but had no effect on attraction to pheromone for six species. One species was attracted only by ethanol. The generic pheromone blend, especially when combined with ethanol, was an effective tool for assessing the species richness and adult phenology of many cerambycid species, including nocturnal, crepuscular, and cryptic species that are otherwise difficult to find. KEY WORDS Cerambycidae, attractant, phenology, forest fragmentation Cerambycid beetles can be serious pests of forest trees long as those in Europe, almost half of the forests in the and wood products (Speight 1989, Solomon 1995).

Biodiversitas 17: 200-207. Longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) are amongst the most popular beetle families and hence lots of research has been carried out on the family. However, the presence of this beetle in the reclamation area of PT Berau Coal has not been investigated yet. PT Berau Coal is a coal company that has long been operated. In the former mining areas have been planted with reclamation plants. The study was carried out to determine the cerambycid beetle species diversity in three sites of the reclamation area, mainly Lati (L), Sambarata (S) and Binungan (B). This is the first report of cerambycid beetles diversity at a reclamation area of PT Berau Coal.
