The First Record of the Longhorn Beetle Chlorophorus Herbstii (Brahm, 1790) (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) from Norway
© Norwegian Journal of Entomology. 25 June 2012 The first record of the longhorn beetleChlorophorus herbstii (Brahm, 1790) (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) from Norway PER KRISTIAN SOLEVÅG & FRODE ØDEGAARD Solevåg, P.K. & Ødegaard, F. 2012. The first record of the longhorn beetle Chlorophorus herbstii (Brahm, 1790) (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) from Norway. Norwegian Journal of Entomology 59, 59–62. In this paper we present the first records of the longhorn beetleChlorophorus herbstii (Brahm, 1790) from Hole, Buskerud in Norway. The species was found in a southwest faced stone scree with a mixed composition of tree species, dominated by lime. Several rare and red listed species of Coleoptera and Hymenoptera were found at the same site, indicating a high variety of insects dependent on trees in different stages of decomposition. Ecology and distribution of the species is briefly discussed. Key words: Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Chlorophorus herbstii, Norway. Per Kristian Solevåg, Barlindveien 9D, NO-3408 Tranby, Norway.

The species is Hole: Nes (32V Ø571905 N6652015) 13 May mostly confined to lime Tilia( cordata), but is 2011. Further investigation in the same trunk occasionally found on oak (Quercus spp.) and later in the season revealed another two dead other tree species favoured by a warm climate specimens on the 25 June 2011. -

Importance of Marginal Habitats for Grassland Diversity: Fallows and Overgrown Tall-Grass Steppe As Key Habitats of Endangered Ground-Beetle Carabus Hungaricus
Insect Conservation and Diversity (2012) 5, 27–36 doi: 10.1111/j.1752-4598.2011.00146.x Importance of marginal habitats for grassland diversity: fallows and overgrown tall-grass steppe as key habitats of endangered ground-beetle Carabus hungaricus 1,2 1 1,2 PAVEL POKLUDA, DAVID HAUCK and LUKAS CIZEK 1Biology Centre ASCR, Institute of Entomology, Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic and 2Faculty of Science, University of South Bohemia, Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic Abstract. 1. To facilitate effective conservation management of dry-grassland diver- sity we studied the habitat selection of Carabus hungaricus, the globally declining, highly endangered, dry-grassland specialist beetle listed in the EU Habitats Directive, and several co-occurring beetles at a pannonian dry-grassland fragment, the Pouzdr- any steppe, SE Czech Republic. The beetles were sampled using 186 pitfall traps from March to November 2006. Number of C. hungaricus captures in each trap was related to vegetation and abiotic habitat characteristics; captures of all sampled bee- tles in each trap were related to each other. 2. We found that C. hungaricus prefers relatively humid patches of tall-grass steppe within the xeric grassland and tall-grass ruderal vegetation nearby. During the breed- ing period, females preferred drier and warmer sites than males. 3. Its potential competitors, i.e., Carabus spp., Calosoma spp. (Coleoptera: Carabi- dae), and other species of conservation interest, including Meloe spp. (Coleoptera: Meloidae), Dorcadion spp. (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), were associated with vegeta- tion avoided by C. hungaricus, such as short-grass and bare-soil patches and woody plants. 4.

10 Evolutionary consequences of predation: avoidance, escape, reproduction, and diversification R. Brian Langerhans Department of OrganismicBiology, Campus and Evolutionary Box 1229, WashingtonBiology, 26 OxfordUniversity, St., St. HarvardLouis, MO University, 63130-4899, Cambridge, [email protected] MA 02138, [email protected] 10.1 Abstract One of the most important and obvious forces shaping organismal traits is predation. Prey have evolved diverse means of enhancing the probability of survival in the face of predation, and these means fall into two classes of antipredator strategies: (1) avoidance of predatory encounters, and (2) escaping after encountering a predator. A range of antipredator defenses— including behavioral, morphological, physiological, and chemical defenses—serve to either reduce the probability of detection by a predator or enhance the probability of surviving after detection by a predator. However, the recognition that reproductive strategies (e.g. offspring number, reproductive lifespan) are typically strongly influenced by mortality regimes induced by predators, highlights that most but not all “antipredator traits” fall into one of these two categories—that is, some life history traits influence only fecundity, not survival. Life history evolution has not traditionally been included in reviews of antipredator adaptations, however this chapter reveals that the conceptual link between life histories and predation broadens and refines our understanding of predation’s role in phenotype evolution. While ecologists have long recognized the importance of predation in population- and community-level dynamics, a varied history exists for the study of predation’s role in influencing evolutionary change. Despite the wealth of antipredator adaptations present in organisms, research investigating the significance of predation in biological evolution has received considerably less attention than other ecological factors (e.g. -

Two new records of the longhorn beetle Chlorophorus varius (Miiller) are presented from Narke, Central Sweden. The species was regarded as extinct.in Sweden, the most recent record being more than 125 years old. One female was observed on a flower in June 1985. Two adults emerged in August 1993 from a dry branch of Tilia cordata collected in the vicinity of Skagarhultsmossen. A map of distribution is presented together with remarks on bionomy.

Munis Entomology & Zoology, 9 (2): 687-712] ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to create a Turkish Red List of the longicorn beetles. Moreover, presence such a Red List is necessary for Turkey. Even governmental evaluations could cause some erroneous decisions due to absence such a Red List. Since, governmental evaluations at the present time are based on the works that are realized with respect to the European Red List. Furthernore, Turkey appears a continental property changeable in very short distances in terms of climatical features and field structures. So, the status of European fauna and the status of Turkish fauna are not the same. Clearly, there is no any work that subjected to create a Turkish Red List except Parts I-VII. Hence, a series work is planned with this purpose. This type of study is the eighth attempt for Turkey. KEY WORDS: Red List, Conservation, Cerambycidae, Turkey. The purpose of the current study was to create a Turkish Red List of longicorn beetles similarly to “European Red List of Saproxylic Beetles” that was compiled by Ana Nieto & Keith N. A. Alexander and published by IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) in collaboration with the European Union in 2010. -

ABSTRACT The observations conducted between May and October 2014 in the protected area "The Forests in the Southern part of Cândeşti Piedmont" clearly show three species of protected saproxylic beetles: Lucanus cervus, Cerambyx cerdo and Morimus asper funereus. The Quercus forests, which are dominant in that area, ensure optimal living conditions for the species L. cervus and M. asper funereus, which are common species in this site. Several aspects are presented that concern the period of activity of the individuals, sex ratio, the presence of predators and the distribution map of the species. The species C. cerdo was only found on Quercus sp, and the small number of the individuals counted in the area show that the species does not benefit from favourable development conditions. A number of pressures identified make the rational management of this protected area to be extremely important. INTRODUCTION Saproxylic insects have a major role in the degradation of dead wood. Speight (1989) (in Buse et al., 2007) defines saproxylic insects as “invertebrates dependent, in their life cycle, on dead wood or very old trees”. -
