(Sciomyzidae) De La Península Ibérica, Baleares Y Canarias
Boll. Soco Hist. Nat. Balears, 24 (1980): 49 - 54. Palma de Mallorca CONTRIBUCION AL ESTUDIO DE LOS DIPTERO S MALACO F AGOS (Sciomyzidae) DE LA PENINSULA IBERICA, BALEARES y CANARIAS M. LECLERCQl y M. BAEZ2 RESUMEN. En el presente trabajo se elabora el inventario de las especies de Sciomyzidae capturadas en los últimos años en la Península Ibérica, Baleares y Canarias, varias de las cuales se señalan por primera vez para la fauna española. Se ha elaborado además el catálogo actualizado y ordenado de las especies españolas de esta familia. SUMMARY. An inventary has been elaborated of the species of Sciomyzidae captured in the Iberian Peninsula, the Balearics and the Canary Islands during the last few years, several of which are new additions to the Spanish fauna. An up-to-date and ordered catalogue of the Spanish spe cies of this family has been prepared. En un trabajo reciente, uno de nosotros (BAEZ, 1980) ha revisado las dos especies endémicas de Sciomyzidae de las Islas Canarias: Pherbellia argyrotar sis (Beck.) y Euthycera guanchica Frey. SACK (1939) cita también para estas islas las especies Pherbellia cinerella (Fall.), Euthycera stictica stictica (Fabri cius), Tetanocera elata (Fabricius) y Tetanocera ferruginea Fallen, todas ellas de distribución paleártica. En nuestra opinión, estas citas de SACK (op. cit:) deben desestimarse y ser consideradas como dudosas o erróneas, ya que nin guno de los autores que han visitado y/o estudiado la fauna dipterológica cana ria (MACQUART, 1838; BECKER, 1908; FREY, 1936) citaron dichas especies en el Archipiélago (con excepción de E. stictica (Fab.). Además de ello, los contÍnuos muestreos realizados por todo el archipiélago durante muchos años por parte de uno de nosotros (Baez) nos lleva indudablemente a dicha conclusión y, por otra parte, las citas de Pherbellia cinerella (Fallen) y Euthycera stictica stictica (Fab.), pueden ser perfectamente resultado de indentificaciones erróneas al 1 Faculté des Sciences agronomiques de l'Etat: Zoologie Générale et Faunistique (Pr. -

The Snail-Killing Fly Pherbellia Cinerella (Fallen) in Malta
The Central Mediterranean Naturalist - Vol. 2 (3) 1995. THE SNAIL-KILLING FLY PHERBELLIA CINERELLA (FALLEN) IN MALTA. M.J. Ebejerl The Sciomyzidae is a family of flies whose larvae are predatory on terrestrial and aquatic molluscs. There are 142 species known from the Western Palaearctic and the Mediterranean region. Pherbellia Robineau-Desvoidy is the genus with the highest number of species and P. cinerella (Fallen) is the commonest and most widespread species in the Palaearctic. It is here recorded for the first time from Malta and so far it is the only representative of the family locally. Identification was based on Knutson et al (1965). Pherbellia cinerella (Fallen 1820) Material examined: 1 ~, Siggiewi, Fawwara, 18.iii.1992, M.J. Ebejer; 1 ri", Ghadira 17.iv.1992, M.J. Ebejer. Bratt et al (1969) give a detailed account of the biology of the genus and the diverse ecological conditions under which the species occurs. Interestingly, the two records from Malta reflect this. Fawwara is relatively dry and the specimen was taken from vegetation on stony ground at the foot of the vertical rockface; Ghadira on the other hand may be described as dune with saltmarsh; here the specimen was taken behind the pool, from the low vegetation among the reeds. This species breeds continuously during the warmer months and up to seven generations in a year have been recorded. P. cinerella is known from most of the Mediterranean countries including Sicily and Tunisia, and in Israel (Knutson 1983) it has also been found in semidesert localities. The mollusc fauna of Malta is comparatively rich and many snail populations are large. -

Cheshire Wildlife Trust
Cheshire Wildlife Trust Heteroptera and Diptera surveys on the Manchester Mosses with PANTHEON analysis by Phil Brighton 32, Wadeson Way, Croft, Warrington WA3 7JS [email protected] on behalf of Lancashire and Cheshire Wildlife Trusts Version 1.0 September 2018 Lancashire Wildlife Trust Page 1 of 35 Abstract This report describes the results of a series of surveys on the Manchester mosslands covering heteroptera (shield bugs, plant bugs and allies), craneflies, hoverflies, and a number of other fly families. Sites covered are the Holcroft Moss reserve of Cheshire Wildlife Trust and the Astley, Cadishead and Little Woolden Moss reserves of Lancashire Wildlife Trust. A full list is given of the 615 species recorded and their distribution across the four sites. This species list is interpreted in terms of feeding guilds and habitat assemblages using the PANTHEON software developed by Natural England. This shows a strong representation in the sample of species associated with shaded woodland floor and tall sward and scrub. The national assemblage of peatland species is somewhat less well represented, but includes a higher proportion of rare or scarce species. A comparison is also made with PANTHEON results for similar surveys across a similar range of habitats in the Delamere Forest. This suggests that the invertebrate diversity value of the Manchester Mosses is rather less, perhaps as a result of their fragmented geography and proximity to past and present sources of transport and industrial pollution. Introduction The Manchester Mosses comprise several areas of lowland bog or mire embedded in the flat countryside between Warrington and Manchester. They include several areas designated as SSSIs in view of the highly distinctive and nationally important habitat, such as Risley Moss, Holcroft Moss, Bedford Moss, and Astley Moss. -

A Literature Review of Biological and Bio-Rational Control Strategies for Slugs: Current Research and Future Prospects

Ross 1,3,* 1 Crop Health and Protection Limited (CHAP), York Biotech Campus, Sand Hutton, York YO41 1LZ, UK; [email protected] 2 School of Biological and Environmental Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool L3 3AF, UK; [email protected] 3 School of Biological Sciences, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen AB24 3UU, UK * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Terrestrial molluscs (slugs and snails) pose a major threat to agriculture, causing severe yield losses in a wide range of crops worldwide. The limited number of chemical molluscicides on the market, along with their negative impact on nontarget organisms and the environment, make mollusc control a real concern for growers and farmers. Therefore, the exploration of alternative, effective and eco-friendly control measures has become a dire need. This study focuses on slugs, as opposed to snails, and reviews the literature on three natural enemies of slugs, namely nematodes, carabid beetles and marsh flies, along with various natural products with slug control potential (for example, essential oils), and this study contributes to providing a comprehensive understanding of how slugs can be better controlled by using nonchemical measures. In doing so, this study also draws attention to the limitations of current research and discusses some important future research avenues in order to develop effective nonchemical slug control measures.
