  • Notes on Trichoferus Arenbergeri with Description of Male (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae)
    Fragmenta entomologica, Roma, 40 (1): 105-114 (2008) NOTES ON TRICHOFERUS ARENBERGERI WITH DESCRIPTION OF MALE (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) ALESSANDRO B. BISCACCIANTI (*) and DANIELE SECHI (**) Trichoferus arenbergeri Holzschuh, 1995 was described from Sar- dinia based upon three females collected in the following localities: “2 km westl, Siniscola [NU], Monte Albo” (locus typicus), “Siniscola (Nuoro)” and “Ozieri” [SS] (Holzschuh 1995: 15). The male of this taxon is still unknown, as well as its biology, ecology and preimaginal stages. During several surveys carried out from 2002 to 2007 at differ- ent sites in southern Sardinia, several specimens (larvae, pupae and adults of both sexes) of this poorly known longhorn beetle were col- lected and observed. The aim of this paper is to describe the male morphology, the biology and the habitat of the species, with a discus- sion about its relationship to other congeneric species. Larval and pu- pal morphology will be treated in a further contribution (Biscaccianti & Di Giulio unpublished data). Specimens examined are listed from North to South and from East to West; they are preserved in the collections listed below. Measures of specimens are taken in the following way. Total length: from the forehead to the apex of elytra; elytral length: from humerus to elytral apex; elytral width: maximum width at humeri; tarsal joint length: from the base of joint (excluding articulation) to the apical margin, or to the midpoint of a line tangential to the apex of the lobes (for bilobed joints); tarsal joint width: maximum width. Nomenclature of associated beetle-fauna follows Liberti (2007), plant nomenclature follows Conti et al.

This year a late frost had turned great swathes of the fresh green Beech foliage to an autumnal brown, so the landscape had an unusual colour palette; it had also impacted on some of the other plants, and possibly other species. Trees higher up in the Val di Rose were unaffected, where we had great views of Abruzzo Chamois. These are always a pleasure to see, as are the Wild Boar, Red and Roe Deer, and a Beech Marten was a good sighting. We were disappointed not to see the Marsican Brown Bear this week (although they were seen in the second week), but it is a reminder that these are truly wild animals, never fed by humans, and any sighting of these or Wolves is a bonus. We enjoyed a wide selection of birds, butterflies and flowers, especially the orchids in their abundance. Geraldine and Marco, as ever, provided a warm welcome and excellent hospitality, introducing us to several local specialities.

Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Polistes gallicus, nesting ecology, plant species, nest orientation, water distance, simple founding, Spain Abstract. Among the numerous factors that contribute to the suc cess of social wasps, colony productivity is the most important and depends on ecological and environmental factors, such as the nest site. Consequently, nest-site choice should be determined by nest-site characteristics. The objective of this study was to determine on which species of plants Polistes gallicus wasps build their nests and identify the possible preferred features of plants used during nest-site selection by the foundress. From February to October 2017–2019 we recorded details of the nests in natural areas in south-western Spain (at 38° latitude). Nests of P. gallicus were recorded on 49 species of plants belonging to 23 families, with Scirpoides holoschoenus, Epilobium hirsutum and Foenicu- lum vulgare the most common. Signifi cantly more wasps built their nests on herbaceous than on shrub and arboreal plants, and on “green” than “brown-grey” plants.

    Emanuele Bocchieri & Gianluca Iiriti A contribution to the knowledge of the vascular flora of the continen- tal carbonate formations situated on the Central Eastern margins of the Campidano plain (Southern Sardinia) Abstract Bocchieri, E. & Iiriti G.: A contribution to the knowledge of the vascular flora of the continen- tal carbonate formations situated on the Central Eastern margins of the Campidano plain (Southern Sardinia). — Fl. Medit. 16: 145-168. 2006. — ISSN 1120-4052. The Authors report on results of floristic research carried out on some of the continental car- bonate formations situated in Southern Sardinia, in which 291 taxonomic units were found, included in 63 families and 204 genera. This report also highlights problems existing for the conservation of flora in a territory where grazing, brush fires and in particular quarrying activ- ity and archaeological excavations limit and/or prevent the development of vegetation cover. Analysis of flora has furthermore shown the predominance of species with stress-tolerant (SR) and competitive-ruderal (CR) strategy. Introduction Botanic investigation on continental carbonate formations has been carried out by numerous experts, including Pichi-Sermolli (1948), Baldini (1996), Mazzecchi & Selvi (1999), Chiarucci & De Dominicis (2001), Angiolini & al. (2004), Chiarucci (2004) and Frignani & al. (2004). The presence in Sardinia of similar formations induced us to study these sites with the aim of learning something of their floristic composition. In this phase of study, we examined those formations emerging as “islands” along the central eastern margins of the Campidano plain, an area where human activity is placing their conserva- tion at serious risk. They face risks from quarrying activity for the production of materials for the building industry, including lime and its derivates.
