The genus consists of two main elements, a northern temperate group of four species and a southern ternperate group of nine. The genus Metromerus Uvarov is synonymized with Calliptamus. A provisional key to genera in the sub-family Calliptaminae has been drawn up, together with keys to species and subspecies in the genus Cailiptamus. Observations are given on polymorphism in the genus, geographical vanation, and posible correlation of variation with climatic factors.

(1993). Two new species of Entomophthoraceae (Zygomycetes, Entomophthorales) linking the genera Entomophaga and Eryniopsis. - Sydowia 45 (2): 264-274. Two new species of the genus Eryniopsis from nematoceran Diptera are descri- bed; E. ptychopterae from Ptychoptera contaminala and E. transitans from Limonia tripunctata. Both produce primary conidia and two types of secondary conidia. The primary conidia of E. ptychopterae are 36-39 x 23-26 urn and those of E. transitans 32-43 x 22-29 um. The two species are very similar but differ mainly in the shape of the conidia and number of nuclei they contain. Both species closely resemble mem- bers of the Entomophaga grilly group and probably form the missing link between Eryniopsis and Entomophaga. Keywords: Insect pathogenic fungi, taxonomy, Diptera, Limoniidae, Ptychop- teridae. The Entomophthoraceae consists of mostly insect pathogenic fun- gi whose taxonomy has not been lully resolved. One controversial genus is Eryniopsis which is characterized by unitunicate, plurinucleate and elongate primary conidia usually produced on un- branched conidiophores and discharged by papillar eversion (Hum- ber, 1984).

ABSTRACT. A study was made of Aleiodes species recorded in Mexico, and specimens deposited in various collections. Using the criteria of Portier and Shaw (1999), eight species groups were recognized from Mexico, with 21 described and 27 undescribed species recorded. These are first records in Mexico for A. earinos Shaw, A. graphicus (Cresson), A. notozophus Marsh and Shaw andA. politiceps (Gahan). The genus is widely distributed in Mexico, being present in 28 of 31 states. Results are discussed in relation to the richness patterns hypotheses of other authors.

  • Folk Taxonomy, Nomenclature, Medicinal and Other Uses, Folklore, and Nature Conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3
    Ulicsni et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2016) 12:47 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0118-7 RESEARCH Open Access Folk knowledge of invertebrates in Central Europe - folk taxonomy, nomenclature, medicinal and other uses, folklore, and nature conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3 Abstract Background: There is scarce information about European folk knowledge of wild invertebrate fauna. We have documented such folk knowledge in three regions, in Romania, Slovakia and Croatia. We provide a list of folk taxa, and discuss folk biological classification and nomenclature, salient features, uses, related proverbs and sayings, and conservation. Methods: We collected data among Hungarian-speaking people practising small-scale, traditional agriculture. We studied “all” invertebrate species (species groups) potentially occurring in the vicinity of the settlements. We used photos, held semi-structured interviews, and conducted picture sorting. Results: We documented 208 invertebrate folk taxa. Many species were known which have, to our knowledge, no economic significance. 36 % of the species were known to at least half of the informants. Knowledge reliability was high, although informants were sometimes prone to exaggeration. 93 % of folk taxa had their own individual names, and 90 % of the taxa were embedded in the folk taxonomy. Twenty four species were of direct use to humans (4 medicinal, 5 consumed, 11 as bait, 2 as playthings). Completely new was the discovery that the honey stomachs of black-coloured carpenter bees (Xylocopa violacea, X. valga)were consumed. 30 taxa were associated with a proverb or used for weather forecasting, or predicting harvests. Conscious ideas about conserving invertebrates only occurred with a few taxa, but informants would generally refrain from harming firebugs (Pyrrhocoris apterus), field crickets (Gryllus campestris) and most butterflies.

Key words: Hymenoptera; Braconidae; Rogadinae; Aleiodes; New Zealand; Australasian; Oriental; East Palaearctic; new species; distribution; partial key; Geometridae; Ennominae; Declana floccosa; Pseudo- coremia suavis; Pseudocoremia fenerata. A new species of the genus Aleiodes Wesmael, 1838 (Braconidae: Rogadinae: Rogadini), A. declanae spec. nov. from New Zealand is described and illustrated. It has been reared from Declana floccosa Walker, Cleora scriptaria (Walker), Pseudocoremia suavis Butler and P. fenerata Felder & Rogenhofer (Geometridae: Ennominae). Introduction The second and third authors have been involved in compiling information on the parasitoids of an ennomine geometrid, Pseudocoremia suavis Butler, 1879, which had several large scale outbreaks in pine forests in New Zealand. One of the most common parasitoids proved to be an Aleiodes Wesmael, 1838 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Roga- dinae: Rogadini), which turned out to be a new species according to research by the first and last authors.
