  • Coleoptera Chrysomelidae) of Sicily: Recent Records and Updated Checklist
    DOI: 10.1478/AAPP.982A7 AAPP j Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali ISSN 1825-1242 Vol. 98, No. 2, A7 (2020) THE CASSIDINAE AND CRYPTOCEPHALINI (COLEOPTERA CHRYSOMELIDAE) OF SICILY: RECENT RECORDS AND UPDATED CHECKLIST COSIMO BAVIERA a∗ AND DAVIDE SASSI b ABSTRACT. This paper compiles an updated checklist of the Sicilian Cassidinae and Cryptocephalini species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae, Cassidinae and Cryptocephalinae) starting from a critical bibliographic screening and adding new material, mainly collected by the first author in the last few decades. A total of 61 species is reported, withnew data for many rarely collected taxa. The provided data expand the known distribution of many uncommon species in Sicily. Two species are recorded for the first time: Cassida inopinata Sassi and Borowiec, 2006 and Cryptocephalus (Cryptocephalus) bimaculatus Fabricius, 1781 and two uncertain presences are confirmed: Cassida deflorata Suffrian, 1844 and Cassida nobilis Linné, 1758. The presence of other sixteen species is considered questionable and needs further confirmation. 1. Introduction Leaf beetles are all phytophagous Coleoptera. They are usually of a rather stout build, with a rounded or oval shape, often brightly coloured or with metallic hues. Worldwide some 32500 species in 2114 genera of Chrysomelidae have been described (Slipi´ nski´ et al. 2011), the majority of which occur in the tropics as is the case with numerous other Coleoptera families. Currently, the leaf beetle subfamily Cassidinae comprises the tortoise beetles (Cassidinae s. str.) and the hispine beetles (Hispinae s. str.) (Borowiec 1995; Hsiao and Windsor 1999; Chaboo 2007). So far, the Cassidinae list about 6300 described species within more than 340 genera, being the second most speciose subfamily of leaf beetles (Borowiec and Swi˛etoja´ nska´ 2014).

  • A Review of the Subgenus Pachybrachis Chevrolat, 1837 S
    Genus Vol. 19(2): 213-283 Wrocław, 31 VII 2008 A review of the subgenus Pachybrachis CHEVROLAT, 1837 s. str. of Palaearctic region (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cryptocephalinae) Andrzej WArchAłoWski Zoological Institute, University of Wrocław, Sienkiewicza 21, 50-335 Wrocław, Poland, e-mail: [email protected] AbstrAct. A review of Palaearctic species of the subgenus Pachybrachis CHEVROLAT, 1837 s. str., an illustrated key to their determination and complete bibliography concerning discussed nominal taxa are given. A new synonymy is established: Pachybrachys lepineyi Pic, 1955 = Pachybrachis simius MArseul, 1875, a few futher taxa are tentatively indicated as suspected synonyms. Key words: entomology, taxonomy, review, Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Cryptocephalinae, Pachybrachis, Palaeractic region. IntrodUCtIon Subgenus Pachybrachis CHEVROLAT sensu stricto is a large group comprising over 350 species out of which about 200 inhabit western hemisphere, the remaining species are distributed mainly in Palaearctic area. the second subgenus, Chloropterus REY, 1883, small and restricted to W Mediterranean area does not create such problems and it is here not discussed in detail. A large number of species, considerable individual variability, and very scattered bibliography, as well as type and comparative specimens, create great difficulties not only in determination of species but also in preliminary grouping of materials. this work is devoted to Palaearctic species only, because this area is characterized by a quick growth of number of described species. the continuous creation of new isolated descriptions requires at least preliminary synthetic work. It is worth mentioning that out 214 AndrZej warChAłoWSKI of 132 species discussed in this paper, half of them were described after the year 1950, most often based on very short series of specimens or even on one specimen only.

ZooKeys 155: 51–60. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.155.1951 Abstract Pachybrachis sassii, new species is described from Giglio Island, of the Tuscan Archipelago (Italy). The new species belongs to the nominotypical subgenus and is closely related to P. salfiiBurlini, 1957, from which it differs in the shape of the median lobe of the aedeagus and in the pattern of the yellow raised spots on the elytra and pronotum. Ecological observations are made. The neotype of P. salfii from Colloreto, Monte Pollino (Italy) is designated. Keywords Entomology, taxonomy, Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Cryptocephalinae, Pachybrachini, Tuscan Archi- pelago, neotype Introduction The genus Pachybrachis Dejean, 1836 belongs to the subfamily Cryptocephalinae (Co- leoptera, Chrysomelidae) and according to the color of the prothorax and elytra is sub- divided into two subgenera: Pachybrachis sensu stricto (hereafter s.

  • A New Species of the Genus Pachybrachis Chevrolat, 1832 from Pakistan and Notes on Similar Asian Species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cryptocephalinae) 91-104 Mitt

Ver. Frankfurt a.M. ISSN 1019-2808 Band 33 . Heft 3/4 Seiten 91 - 104 2. März 2009 A new species of the genus Pachybrachis Chevrolat, 1832 from Pakistan and notes on similar Asian species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cryptocephalinae) Matthias SCHÖLLER Abstract: So far, the genus Pachybrachis Chevrolat, 1832 was not rec- orded from Pakistan. In this study, a new species, Pachybrachis chitralensis n. sp. from the Kalash valleys of the Chitral area is described and illustrated. The new species is compared with other species of Pachy- brachis with similar dorsal colouration. The spermathecal duct is des- cribed for the first time for the following taxa: Pachybrachis scripticollis Faldermann, 1837, P. issykensis issykensis Jakobson, 1901, P. trans- baicalicus Medvedev, 1974, P. scriptidorsum Marseul, 1875, P. mitjaevi Lopatin & Kulenova, 1982, P. mongolensis Medvedev & Rybakova, 1980, and P. heptapotamicus Lopatin, 1997. The spermathecal duct is shown to provide characters for species identification. The male genitalia of Pachy- brachis transbaicalicus Medvedev, 1974 and P. mongolensis Medvedev & Rybakova, 1980 are illustrated from type specimens. The following synonymy is proposed: Pachybrachis scripticollis Faldermann, 1837 = P. persa Suffrian, 1860 syn. nov.; P. heptapotamicus Lopatin, 1997 is rec- orded for the first time from Uzbekistan. Key words: Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Cryptocephalinae, Pachy- brachini, Pachybrachis, Palaearctic, Asia, Pakistan Introduction The genus Pachybrachis Chevrolat, 1832 is distributed with more than 350 species in the Palaearctic (WARCHAŁOWSKI 2008).

Sagrinae and Donaciinae (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) Harbor Similar Bacteria Gregor Kölsch * and Dimitra Synefiaridou Zoological Institute, Molecular Evolutionary Biology, University of Hamburg, Martin-Luther-King- Platz 3, 20146 Hamburg, Germany; E-Mail: [email protected] * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-40-42838-3933; Fax: +49-40-42838-3937. Received: 28 March 2012; in revised form: 11 April 2012 / Accepted: 17 April 2012 / Published: 7 May 2012 Abstract: When symbioses between insects and bacteria are discussed, the origin of a given association is regularly of interest. We examined the evolution of the symbiosis between reed beetles (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Donaciinae) and intracellular symbionts belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae. We analyzed the partial sequence of the 16S rRNA to assess the phylogenetic relationships with bacteria we found in other beetle groups (Cerambycidae, Anobiidae, other Chrysomelidae). We discuss the ecology of each association in the context of the phylogenetic analysis. The bacteria in Sagra femorata (Chrysomelidae, Sagrinae) are very closely related to those in the Donaciinae and are located in similar mycetomes. The Sagrinae build a cocoon for pupation like the Donaciinae, in which the bacteria produce the material required for the cocoon. These aspects support the close relationship between Sagrinae and Donaciinae derived in earlier studies and make a common ancestry of the symbioses likely. Using PCR primers specific for fungi, we found Candida sp. in the mycetomes of a cerambycid beetle along with the bacteria.
