STEHLÍK Moravian Museum, Department of Entomology, Hviezdoslavova 29a, 627 00 Brno, Czech Republic STEHLÍK J. L. 2002: Results of the investigations on Hemiptera in Moravia made by the Moravian Museum (Tingidae). Acta Musei Moraviae, Scientiae biologicae (Brno) 87: 87–149. – Remarks on the distribution and biology of the Moravian species of the Tingidae are given. The species Galeatus sinuatus HERRICH-SCHAEFFER is new for the Czech Republic and Tingis auriculata (A. COSTA) new for Moravia. The family Tingidae is represented by 50 species in Moravia. Key words. Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Tingidae, distribution, biology, Czech Republic, Moravia Introduction This paper follows on from previous publications on the distribution (with notes on the biology) of species of various families of Heteroptera in Moravia, based on materials from this insect order held in the collections of the Moravian Museum, Brno (STEHLÍK 1981, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1995; STEHLÍK & VAVØÍNOVÁ 1987, 1989, 1990, 1997a, 1997b, 1998a, 1998b; STEHLÍK & HEISS 2000). The introductory part (STEHLÍK 1981: 185–219) contains all the basic data and ways in which it has been approached. For each of the species, the first paragraph of the text summarises faunological data on the Heteroptera from Moravia available between 1854 and 1980. A detailed list of references may be found in the introductory part (STEHLÍK 1981: 111–116); an addendum to the list of references appears in STEHLÍK & VAVØÍNOVÁ (1997a: 231–232). In the list of references and its amendment, the work of ŠTUSÁK (1977) has been omitted. In recent years a paper on the introduced plane tree pest Corythucha ciliata (SAY) (STEHLÍK 1997) was also published. Additional information on this species can be also found in the work of STEHLÍK & HRADIL (2000). Older misidentifications have been already corrected in the checklist published by HOBERLANDT (1977). Therefore, only errors that have been found later, i.e. during this comprehensive data analysis, appear here. The scientific literature has been reviewed up to the year 2000 (included). In the “Literature” part, in the data on some localities, the number of the biogeographical district (in parentheses) is marked with a question mark. In these cases, it was not clear to which of these districts the particular localities belong because the author did not clearly mention exactly where a site lies (it is often, for example, at the border of two or even three biogeographical districts or subdistricts). Material from the author’s and collaborators’ collections, or acquired for the collections of the Moravian Museum, appears in the second paragraph. The localities are arranged according to biogeographical districts, denoted by Arabic numerals (Fig. 1). In 87 J. L. STEHLÍK cases in which the Arabic numeral is followed by a letter, this denotes a sub-district. The districts and sub-districts have been defined according to our modification of a paper by DOSTÁL (1960), refined on the basis of additional sources. Dostál’s classification has the advantage that the author has also established a hierarchy of the biogeographical units (district, territory, subregion, region). The higher units also make it possible to compare more extensive territories and, moreover, they even have Latin denominations. The characteristics of Dostál’s higher biogeographical units have been supplemented by vegetation tiers after RAUŠER & ZLATNÍK (1966); for particulars, see the introductory part (STEHLÍK 1981: 105–108). All the specimens examined were collected in the 20th century, so only the final two numbers of a year have been used in the data given. Only the year 2000 is written out in full. The climatic regions mentioned in the commentaries have been established after QUITT (1971); see the introductory part (STEHLÍK 1981: 100–103). The commentary to each species begins with an abbreviation indicating the pertinence of the species to a particular biogeographical element. In the vast majority of cases, we have adhered to JOSIFOV (1986) in this respect. For a more detailed study of the family Tingidae we refer the reader to the outstanding work of PÉRICART (1983) and also to PUTSHKOV (1974). Genera are arranged according to the checklist drawn up by HOBERLANDT (1977).

E. Hibernates in the adult stage. This species can be found all the year round but most frequently in early spring (March, April), when it mates. Specimens occur singly or in high numbers. Mostly collected by sifting, it can often be observed in wash aswell. Occurs in plant detritus (sometimes at the foot of old trees), in mosses and lichens, under stones and leaf litter. Also found by some authors by sifting ants’ nests; its relationship 90 Acta Mus. Moraviae, Sci. Biol. (Brno), 87, 2002 Tingidae of Moravia with ants, however, is not clear. In Moravia, it has been found at an altitude of 216 to 530 m in the warmest climatic region T 4 and the moderately warm MT 11, 10, 3, 2. Acalypta carinata (PANZER, 1806) Literature.

According to PÉRICART (1983) adults and nymphs can be observed all the year round but mainly in spring and towards the end of summer. The chart published by RESSL & WAGNER (1960) indicates that two generations per year are more likely than one. PÉRICART (1983) reports that this species lives in mosses in moist and shaded sites in broad-leaved as well as coniferous woods. Also collected by various authors by sifting the mosses and lichens growing on trees. According to ZEBE (1971) it may also be found by sifting Sphagnum and Polytrichum.
