VALIDITY OF DATA The findings of this study are valid for a period of 24 months from the date of survey.

Middlemarch Environmental Ltd. Page 1 Land at Grovelands Way, Warminster RT-MME-121326-02 Terrestrial Invertebrate Survey NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY In June 2016, Middlemarch Environmental Ltd was commissioned by Durmast Ltd & ACE Retirement (Warminster) Ltd to carry out a terrestrial invertebrate survey at the site of a proposed development located off Grovelands Way in Warminster, Wiltshire. An ecological desk study was undertaken, with records of invertebrates within a 2 km radius from the site obtained from Wiltshire and Swindon Biological Records Centre. This revealed a wide range of protected and notable invertebrate species, the majority of which are Lepidoptera. The terrestrial invertebrate survey was undertaken on 8th July and 9th and 15th August 2016 by Richard Wright (Specialist Invertebrate Surveyor). This consisted of an initial site visit, which identified the habitats within the site to be primarily grassland, with some wetter areas, secondary woodland and hedgerows. On both visits, invertebrates were recorded by direct observation, sweep netting and beating trees and shrubs. On the 9th August 2016 visit, water (pan) traps and pitfall traps were set. These were emptied and removed on 15th August 2016. A total of 318 species of invertebrate was recorded, none of which are considered nationally scarce or otherwise of conservation importance. Using the ISIS analysis, no Broad or Specific Assemblage Types (BATs or SATs) were found to be in favourable condition. While species diversity is reasonably high, the great majority of species recorded are widespread and generally common. The areas of interest are all in the eastern part of the site, within the Coldharbour Meadows Local Wildlife Site. Here there are small areas of wildflower grassland and larger areas of wetter habitat dominated by tall ruderal plants. While far from outstanding, these habitats do have some value for invertebrates. Based on the data collected during this survey, the following recommendation is provided: R1 As far as possible, habitats within Coldharbour Meadows LWS should be retained intact and without damage during development works. R2 The habitats within Coldharbour Meadows LWS are currently being invaded by colonising scrub and tree species. Opportunities for enhancement of the grassland habitats for terrestrial invertebrates would include the long-term management of the grassland to ensure that this habitat is retained and succession is not allowed to occur. R3 The development proposals should ensure that they do not result in any adverse changes to the hydrology of the wetland habitat areas of Coldharbour Meadows LWS through diversion of water away from the LWS habitats. R4 Consideration should be given to the opportunities for the creation of wildlife pond habitats within the site to diversify the range of habitat opportunities for invertebrates at the site.

  • COI Barcoding of Plant Bugs (Insecta: Hemiptera: Miridae)
    COI barcoding of plant bugs (Insecta: Hemiptera: Miridae) Junggon Kim and Sunghoon Jung Laboratory of Systematic Entomology, Department of Applied Biology, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Chungnam National University, Daejeon, Korea ABSTRACT The family Miridae is the most diverse and one of the most economically important groups in Heteroptera. However, identification of mirid species on the basis of morphology is difficult and time-consuming. In the present study, we evaluated the effectiveness of COI barcoding for 123 species of plant bugs in seven subfamilies. With the exception of three Apolygus species—A. lucorum, A. spinolae, and A. watajii (sub- family Mirinae)—each of the investigated species possessed a unique COI sequence. The average minimum interspecific genetic distance of congeners was approximately 37 times higher than the average maximum intraspecific genetic distance, indicating a significant barcoding gap. Despite having distinct morphological characters, A. lu- corum, A. spinolae, and A. watajii mixed and clustered together, suggesting taxonomic revision. Our findings indicate that COI barcoding represents a valuable identification tool for Miridae and can be economically viable in a variety of scientific research fields.

Some structures were rejudged or given a new interpretation, i.e., Singh-Pruthi's bulbous vesica was rejudged as being the exposed ejaculatory conjunctiva; Singh-Pruthi's ejaculatory duct within the bulbous vesica was rejudged as being the actual aedeagus; Singh-Pruthi's endosoma undifferentiated into the conjunctiva and vesica was interpreted as being a wholly reduced aedeagus. The support bridge, support tube, and phallobasal conjunctival processes exposed in the genital chamber were distinguished. The expanded ejaculatory duct between the apex of the support tube and the base of the aedeagus were judged to be independent modifications, not homologous structures of the ejaculatory reservoir in the Pentatomomorpha. The following phylogenetic relationships in the Miridae are proposed: (Isometopinae + (Psallopinae + Cylapinae)) + ((Orthotylinae + Phylinae) + (Bryocorinae

    MASTERARBEIT Titel der Masterarbeit „Impact of flooding on bug communities (Heteroptera) on meadows of the Morava River floodplains, Eastern Austria“ Verfasser Marian Johannes Gratzer, Bakk.rer.nat. angestrebter akademischer Grad Master of Science (MSc) Wien, 2012 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 066 879 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Naturschutz und Biodiversitätsmanagement Betreuer: Dipl.-Biol. Dr. Christian H. Schulze Abstract Lowland floodplains in Europe have been altered radically by human activities during the last century. One of Central Europe`s last semi-natural lowland floodplains remained along the Morava River on the border between Austria and Slovakia. In this riparian landscape the annual flood dynamics still represent a determining factor in shaping different habitats. Especially terrestrial arthropods of the soil and herb layer are permanently exposed to flooding events. In this study we quantified effects of flooding on richness, abundance and composition of terrestrial bug assemblages (Heteroptera), considering feeding guild affiliation, host plant specialization of herbivorous species and flight ability, on floodplain meadows in the nature reserve "Untere Marchauen" (Lower Austria) and its close proximity. Bugs were sampled by sweep netting on meadows with different flooding regimes ranging from meadows only occasionally flooded by a rising ground-water level to meadows usually flooded for several weeks per year. A total of 11,950 individuals, 5,312 of them adults belonging to 118 species, were collected. Species richness and abundance of bugs were negatively affected by flooding duration and species composition differed between meadows of different flooding regimes. Meadows flooded for longer periods of time were characterized by a higher relative abundance of predacious species.

Six visits were made, one each in April to September 2020 to record terrestrial insects in a number of orders. Survey involved sweep-netting the available vegetation and some direct searching for species at flowers across the whole site. Insect groups covered by the survey are presented in Section 1.3. Tables showing the species recorded are presented in Section 1.4. Species were identified in the field wherever possible, but due to identification difficulties with some species, some were retained and identified with the aid of a microscope. Reference material has been retained in the collection of the surveyor, surplus material will be donated to the collections of the National Biodiversity Data Centre, Waterford, Eire and/or Portsmouth City Museum Service.
