THE CDLEDPTERIST's NE\NSLETTER Nu:.1Ber 32 May, 1988 THE CDLEDPTERIST'S NE\NSLETTER Nu:.1ber 32 May, 1988 IDENTIFICATION OF PEDIACUS LARVAE: I have been finding Pediacus sp. larvae beneath bark on relatively freshly dead timber in a large nunber of ancient uoodlands, pasture ~ood­ lands and parklands throughout England and Wales over the past five or six years. These are presucably nostly J?.dermestoides, out :;m not m<1are of any published cooparative work which . ' . indicate3 ho~ to separate this specie£ fron depressusJ our rarer species of the genus. The larvae in my collection are all 1 s~perficially at least, very similar and shou no obvious cU ffe:rnncos fron the illustration of p ~depress us in Paln (Q'2_t;sc~ .~£..j;_., l952}o Does anyone.1mov;r how to Geparate the two, or alternatively, doeo anyone have any y.deQ!esaus larvae or juct Pegia_c~::!.§. larvae fron known de.qressus localities which they uould be ~illing to lend me so I can attenpt to identify tbe differences ?

The duplicator I usualiy use would not print and the "Newsletter" ~as run off an aln3st brand new machine, alas on cheap paper. I hope this is3ue will be back to nor~al, though at the tim8 of typing the stencils 1 1m not sure which nachine will havs to ba uoed for tbe duplicating. 2 LOAN 11 LIBP..AP.Y 11 : 'iJThilst recently brovm ing through a copy of "The Mycologist", I hap~ened to notice an entry regarding the loan of mycological naterial froo the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. (The Mycologist; 2(1):7). Thin prompted ne to enquire as to·tbe existence of, or failing such the possible establishoent of a "British Coleoptera Specimen Library" run along sinilar lines. ffililst such a facility would need to be housed with an accepted entoiDological body, it could be fairly quickly built up from duplicates donated by participatinc coleopterists should there be sufficient interest. The basis of such a service is self-evident, being primarily concerned with the loan of reliably deternined specimens (partict~1arJy of the more difficult genera) to non-specialists who may ba ex~eriencing difficulties with their o~n material. \Jhilst 11any coleopterists send material to an appropiate specialist for confirwation, the facility to borrow reliably determined specinens should suppleH1.:mt the identification of dif~icult oaterial and to -some extent nay relieve the burden placed upon such specialists~ Needless to say, very local or rare species or species of doubtful occurence, should always have their idenl1£ication ch-ecked by a specialist. Does anyone have further suggestions ? Dav)d Hemingway, 13 Ashdene Garth, cr·ofton, YJalrefield, 11.

  • A Baseline Invertebrate Survey of the Ken Hill Estate, 2019
    A baseline invertebrate survey of the Ken Hill Estate, 2019 Graeme Lyons February 2020 Fig. 1. The nationally rare Breckland Leather Arenocoris waltlii is listed as Critically ​ ​ ​ Endangered 0 – Summary The Ken Hill Estate plan to rewild a large area of some 400 ha of their Estate during 2019 and 2020. The summer of 2019 was the last crop for much of this area and as such, the 2019 survey season was an exciting opportunity to collect baseline data before any changes were made to the site. The author was commissioned to carry out a wide range of surveys in 2019, including this baseline invertebrate survey. A methodology used by the author to monitor other rewilding sites nationally was adopted based upon surveying eight fields/sections, six times from April to September. The sections needed to represent the site geographically, representationally in terms of habitats and crops and make a realistic circular route. Each section was recorded for 30 minutes using the method pertinent to the season. Specimens were taken and identified at the microscope. Eight species lists were produced and an overall site species list was also produced. All species with conservation status were recorded and species accounts given. Any species recorded between section or on different surveys were also recorded. A total of 1895 records were made during the six visits comprised of 811 species, 50 species of which had conservation status (6.2%). The total number of species was exceptionally rich, the highest figure of any six-visit invertebrate survey carried out by the author. The proportion of species with status was comparable to other rewilding surveys but these were carried out some 15 years after rewilding began.

Online: http://www.zpcse.cz/entolisty/entolisty.html, 22-3-2010. Abstract. The results of the beetle research realized during years 2007–2008 in the Kaňon Ohře protected in Natura 2000 are presented in this paper. The locality is formed by the deep rocky (granit) valley of the Ohře (Eger) river cove- red mostly with spruce, pine and birch forests, locally also with relict lime-oak forests on the rocky slopes and rests of old-growth beech woodlands. The occurrence of stony debrices is common in this area. Non-altered river locally with small sandy beaches is very important for the diversity of the locality. Altogether 637 species were found in this area during the research from which 29 species are redlisted. The area is rich for saproxylic beetles (dead wood dependent). Click beetle Anostirus sulphuripennis (Elateridae), weevil Otiorhynchus desertus (Curculionidae) and saproxylic beetles Mycetophagus decempunctatus (Mycetophagidae) and Rabocerus gabrieli (Salpingidae) are the most valuable species found in the locality.

The study focused on the invertebrates of the habitats covered by the Habitats Directive (92/43/ EEC). The species list we present here contains 465 species in total, among them some remarkable species as Cyphon kongs- bergensis, Crenitis punctatostriata, Deliphrum algidum, Hydroporus melanarius, Hydrosmecta carinthiaca, Ochthephilus aureus and Pselaphaulax dresdensis. Activity denstities of some bog species differ most notably in bog habitats: Cyphon kongsbergensis, Enochrus affinis, Crenitis punctatostriata, Pterostichus diligens and Pterostichus rhaeticus showed high densities in active raised bog and transition mires, but absence or low densities in degraded raised bog.

  • A Review of the Invertebrates Associated with Lowland Calcareous Grassland English Nature Research Reports
    Report Number 512 A review of the invertebrates associated with lowland calcareous grassland English Nature Research Reports working today for nature tomorrow English Nature Research Reports Number 512 A review of the invertebrates associated with lowland calcareous grassland Dr K N A Alexander April 2003 You may reproduce as many additional copies of this report as you like, provided such copies stipulate that copyright remains with English Nature, Northminster House, Peterborough PE1 1UA ISSN 0967-876X © Copyright English Nature 2003 Acknowledgements Thanks are due to Jon Webb for initiating this project and Dave Sheppard for help in its progression. Each draft species table was circulated amongst a number of invertebrate specialists for their reactions and additional data. Comments on the Coleoptera table were received from Jonty Denton, Tony Drane, Andrew Duff, Andy Foster, Peter Hodge, Pete Kirby, Derek Lott, Mike Morris; Hemiptera from Jonty Denton, Pete Kirby and Alan Stewart; Hymenoptera from Michael Archer, Graham Collins, Mike Edwards, and Andy Foster; spiders from Peter Harvey, David Nellist and Rowley Snazell; moths from Andy Foster and Mark Parsons. Summary This report brings together a considerable amount of information on the species composition of the invertebrate fauna of lowland calcareous grasslands, and is aimed at helping field workers and site managers to obtain a broader understanding of the extent and importance of the fauna. It concentrates on the species most closely associated with the habitat type and provides preliminary assessments of their habitat fidelity, the importance of habitat continuity, and their microhabitat preferences. Many factors influence the composition of the fauna of calcareous grasslands.

  • Glos Species of Conservation Concern
    Gloucestershire Key Wildlife Sites Handbook Part 3: Appendices Appendix 3 – Species of conservation concern in Gloucestershire This Appendix contains the reference species lists for use when assessing the minimum thresholds for selecting KWS on species grounds. General thresholds for different categories of species conservation status are detailed in Part 2 of the KWS Handbook, Section 2.6. Key species groups such at bats, amphibians and butterflies also have an accompanying rationale for site selection, provided by the relevant expert County Recorders. “Schedule” in the Status column of the species lists refers to schedules of The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (and subsequent amendments) unless otherwise stated. IUCN Red List refers to the IUCN Global Red List; National Red List is the national listing based on IUCN criteria but applied regionally rather than globally. A longer summary of the legislation and designation categories relating to species status is listed in Appendix 4 . The relevant threshold from the Species Criteria in Section 2.6 is included next to each species list, or individual species entry where applicable. Please note that these tables will be subject to regular updates as and when the status of species is reviewed, and that some species may occasionally be added to, or removed from, the lists. Species assemblage indices may also change from time to time. Please check that you have the latest version of Appendix 3 before assessing a site for KWS selection! If in doubt, a master list of all UK conservation designations is available from the JNCC website here: http://www.jncc.gov.uk/page-3408.

THE COLEOPTERA OF THE COUNTIES OF LANCASHIRE AND CHESHIRE. By W. E. s h a r p , F.E.S. INTRODUCTORY. The subject of the following pages is the distribution of one of the principal orders of the I n s e c t a , the Coleopteya, or beetles, so far as it has been recorded throughout the two counties of Lan­ cashire and Cheshire. This district as an area of zoological distri­ bution is, of course, a purely arbitrary one, and as a matter of fact, although the whole of the two counties is for the sake of con­ venience here included, but little is recorded, or indeed known, of their Coleopterous fauna except as it occurs within a few miles of the towns of Manchester, Liverpool, Southport, Warrington, Birkenhead, and Chester.
