Amazon Adventure-Wildlife in the Film List 3D
Wildlife Featured in the Film Amazon Adventure immerses audiences right into the biodiverse rainforest. The following is a list of the scientic names with photos of over 70 dierent species that appear in the lm in chronological order. Henry Bates' fascinating 11-year exploration through the perilous Amazon jungle shows him in constant contact with the wildlife inhabiting these visually stunning ecosystems. Everything from the smallest beetle crawling along the forest oor to the immense trees creating a canopy above, Bates wanted to examine it all. Things are not always what they seem as Bates discovered many astounding examples of camouage and mimicry. He also collected over 14, 500 dierent species while in the Amazon and 8, 000 new to science.

New Paleogene Mantises from the Oise Amber and Their Evolutionary Importance
New Paleogene mantises from the Oise amber and their evolutionary importance THOMAS SCHUBNEL and ANDRE NEL Schubnel, T. and Nel, A. 2019. New Paleogene mantises from the Oise amber and their evolutionary importance. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 64 (X): xxx–xxx. Mantodea are rather scarce in the fossil record, especially those belonging to the mantise crown group. Four fossil mantids are described from the lowermost Eocene amber of Oise (France), two Chaeteessidae considered as “genus and species incertae sedis”, and two Mantoididae, described as a new genus and species Pseudomantoida extendidera. We also describe a new specimen of Arvernineura insignis from the Paleocene of Menat (France), confirming the attribution of this taxon to the Chaeteessidae. These fossils are of great interest for future dating of the crown group Mantodea, being the oldest Chaeteessidae and Mantoididae. We propose a new genus name Louispitonia nom. nov. in replacement of Archaeophlebia Piton, 1940 preoccupied by Archaeophlebia Ris, 1909 (Odonata) with Archaeophlebia enigmatica as its type species. Key words: Insecta, Mantodea, Chaeteessidae, Mantoididae, Paleocene, Eocene, France.

Biota Neotrop. 10(3): http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v10n3/en/abstract?short- communication+bn04310032010. Abstract: Praying mantis and spider species are common food items in the diet of several anuran species. Nevertheless, in this study we report the predation of young treefrogs Osteocephalus taurinus by two spider species, a Pisauridae and a Trechaleidae (Neoctenus sp.) and by the praying mantis Eumusonia sp. in Mato Grosso, Central Brazil. The great abundance of this treefrog in the region, combined with its small body size during the juvenil stage, favor its predation by generalists predators. -
Intersexuality in the Holotype of Photina Gracilis (Mantodea: Mantidae: Photininae) and Its Taxonomic Implications
ZOOLOGIA 31 (4): 408–411, August, 2014 http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1984-46702014000400014 SHORT COMMUNICATION Intersexuality in the holotype of Photina gracilis (Mantodea: Mantidae: Photininae) and its taxonomic implications Antonio A. Agudelo R. Programa de Pós-graduação em Entomologia, Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia. Avenida André Araujo 2936, Aleixo, 69060-001 Manaus, AM, Brazil. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Parasitism by horsehair worms (Nematomorpha) in Mantodea is well known, but only a few cases of intersexu- ality were reported in the literature. In the present study, intersexuality of the holotype of Photina gracilis Giglio-Tos, 1915 is documented as a possible consequence of nematomorph parasitism. Photina gracilis and Photina laevis Giglio-Tos, 1915 are established as new subjective junior synonyms of Photina vitrea (Burmeister, 1838). The female holotype of Mantis (Cardioptera) gymnopyga Burmeister, 1838, which was associated and synonymized with P. vitrea, is recognized as a member of the genus Coptopteryx and the combination Coptopteryx gymnopyga (Burmeister, 1838) is revalidated. The substitute name Photina gymnopyga (Burmeister, 1838), instead of Mantis (Photina) vitrea Burmeister, 1838 (nec Mantis vitrea Stoll, 1813), is discarded and established as a new synonym of Coptopteryx gymnopyga. The name vitrea Burmeister, 1838 must be maintained until ruling by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature. KEY WORDS. Coptopteryx; Nematomorpha; parasitism; Photina; praying mantises.

NOTES ON COURTSHIP AND MATING OF Stagmatoptera septentrionalis SAUSSURE & ZEHNTNER, 1894 IN COLOMBIA (MANTODEA) Abstract This project provides data to the knowledge on sexual courtship and mating of the Stagmatoptera septentrionalis Saussure & Zehntner, 1894 species observed in Colombia. Key words Cannibalism, Colombia, reproductive habits, Mantodea, Stagmatoptera, Stagmomantis. INTRODUCCIÓN tagmatoptera septentrionalis es una especie de Mántido verde descrita por SAUSSURE & ZEHNTNER en 1894 por una hembra recogida en Bugaba S (Panamá) para sus estudios realizados en la obra Biología Centrali-Americana, y depositada en el Museo Británico de Historia Natural (MARSHALL, 1975). Pertenece a la familia Vatidae, tribu Stagmatopterini (EHRMANN, 1999) y en Colombia está ampliamente distribuida en zonas templadas (1300-1700 msnm) de los departamentos de Antioquia, Caldas, Caquetá, Chocó, Quindío, Santander, Risaralda, Tolima y Valle (SALAZAR, 2002). Es la mayor especie que podemos encontrar en la región Andina, pues sus hembras llegan a medir hasta 10 cm de longitud. El estudio sobre el comportamiento sexual en Mántidos Neotropicales ha sido pobremente documentado. El propósito de este trabajo es suministrar entonces alguna información sobre el cortejo y apareamiento de St. septentrionalis para verificar si durante la cópula hay indicios de canibalismo por parte de la hembra, fenómeno que ha hecho famosos a los representantes del orden Mantodea (PESSON, 1960; LAWRENCE, 1992; FRASER, 1994; DOUGHTY, 2002). -

Terrestrial Arthropod Survey of Hālona Valley, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Naval Magazine Lualualei Annex, August 2020–November 2020 Neal L. Evenhuis, Keith T. Arakaki, Clyde T. Imada Hawaii Biological Survey Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum Honolulu, Hawai‘i 96817, USA Final Report prepared for the U.S. Navy Contribution No. 2021-003 to the Hawaii Biological Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Bishop Museum was contracted by the U.S. Navy to conduct surveys of terrestrial arthropods in Hālona Valley, Naval Magazine Lualualei Annex, in order to assess the status of populations of three groups of insects, including species at risk in those groups: picture-winged Drosophila (Diptera; flies), Hylaeus spp. (Hymenoptera; bees), and Rhyncogonus welchii (Coleoptera; weevils). The first complete survey of Lualualei for terrestrial arthropods was made by Bishop Museum in 1997. Since then, the Bishop Museum has conducted surveys in Hālona Valley in 2015, 2016–2017, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. The current survey was conducted from August 2020 through November 2020, comprising a total of 12 trips; using yellow water pan traps, pitfall traps, hand collecting, aerial net collecting, observations, vegetation beating, and a Malaise trap. The area chosen for study was a Sapindus oahuensis grove on a southeastern slope of mid-Hālona Valley. The area had potential for all three groups of arthropods to be present, especially the Rhyncogonus weevil, which has previously been found in association with Sapindus trees. Trapped and collected insects were taken back to the Bishop Museum for sorting, identification, data entry, and storage and preservation. The results of the surveys proved negative for any of the target groups. -
