Ünal, Abant İzzet Baysal Üniversitesi, Fen-Edebiyat Fakütesi, Biyoloji Bölümü, Bolu 14280, Turkey. E-mail: [email protected] The fauna of Gryllomorphinae of Turkey is reviewed. Sixteen species and subspecies are es- tablished. Ovaliptila anamur sp. nov., O. anitli sp. nov., O. alanya sp. nov., O. alanya proxima subsp. nov., O. alara sp. nov., O. teke sp. nov., O. ibrahimi sp. nov., Glandulosa borisi sp. nov. and Gryllomorpha dalmatina minutissima subsp. nov. are described. Ovaliptila beroni (Popov, 1975), Glandulosa kinzelbachi Harz, 1979, G. harzi Gorochov, 1996 and Gryllomorpha antalya Gorochov, 2009 are briefly characterized based on the type material. Ovaliptila buresi Mařan, 1958 is indicated as a rather widely distributed species in the western part of Anatolia (but not in the southern coast of this peninsula). Gryllomorpha dalmatina pieperi Harz, 1979, G. miramae Medvedev, 1933 and the nominotypical subspecies of G. miramae are recorded from Turkey for the first time, but both subspecies remain open to question. Дан обзор фауны Gryllomorphinae Турции. Установлено шестнадцать видов и подвидов.

  • Dalmatina (Ocsk.) (Orth
    Copulation and spermatophores of Gryllomorpha dalmatina (Ocsk.) (Orth. Gryllidae) BY B. TH. BOLDYREV Mosco w. My observations on copulation of Gryllomorpha dalmatina (Ocsk.) were made in the period 7-19 VIII, 1926, on the south coast of Cri- mea, about 5 km. east of Yalta. Gryllomorpha was very common there and as soon as the dusk becomes darker these crickets appeared on the walls in houses, and in still larger numbers on the outer walls of buildings made of somewhat lose stones; I used to find them also under stones on the ground. Mostly adult and sexually ma- ture individuals were observed, while larvae (10-14 mm. in length) were rare. In the Eastern part of the Crimean coast Gryllomorpha seems to be generally less common; at any rate during two seasons which I spent in Karadagh (July to September, 1925 and 1926) I never met with it, and only a single female (adult) has been taken by V. V. Karpov under a stone in an oak forest near the Kisiltash monastery. A. Shugurov (19H.) records G. dalmatina from the following loca- lities in Crimea: Ayan, Simferopol district; Laspi and Karabach, on the South coast. When cathing Gryllomorpha a pocket electric flash-lamp proved to be very useful, the insects being quickly, but cautiously covered with a glass, or with a small wire-net cage. The light does not frighten the crickets at first and they remain for some time on the same spot, but the slightest touch, or even movement of air (from breathing), re- some sults in strong leaps, and the insect disappears immediately into crack between stones.

  • Endemism in Italian Orthoptera
    Biodiversity Journal, 2020, 11 (2): 405–434 https://doi.org/10.31396/Biodiv.Jour.2020.11.2.401.434 Endemism in Italian Orthoptera Bruno Massa1 & Paolo Fontana2* 1Department Agriculture, Food and Forest Sciences, University of Palermo, Italy (retired); email: [email protected] 2Fondazione Edmund Mach, San Michele all’Adige, Italy *Corresponding author, email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The present paper discusses about the distribution of orthopterans endemic to Italy. This coun- try is located in the centre of the Mediterranean Basin and its palaeo-geographical origins are owed to complex natural phenomena, as well as to a multitude of centres-of-origin, where colonization of fauna and flora concerned. Out of 382 Orthoptera taxa (i.e., species and sub- species) known to occur in Italy, 160 (41.9%) are endemic. Most of them are restricted to the Alps, the Apennines or the two principal islands of Italy (i.e., Sardinia and Sicily). In addition, lowland areas in central-southern Italy host many endemic taxa, which probably originate from the Balkan Peninsula. In Italy, the following 8 genera are considered endemic: Sardoplatycleis, Acroneuroptila, Italopodisma, Epipodisma, Nadigella, Pseudoprumna, Chorthopodisma and Italohippus. Moreover, the subgenus Italoptila is endemic to Italy. For research regarding endemism, Orthoptera are particularly interesting because this order com- prises species characterized by different ecological traits; e.g., different dispersal abilities, contrasting thermal requirements or specific demands on their habitats. The highest percentage of apterous or micropterous (35.3%) and brachypterous (16.2%) endemic taxa live in the Apennines, which are among the most isolated mountains of the Italian Peninsula.

We propose the first phylogenetic hypothesis for the evolu- tion of crickets sensu lato, based on analysis of 205 species, representing 88% of the subfamilies and 71% tribes currently listed in the database Orthoptera Species File (OSF). We reconstructed parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenies using fragments of 18S, 28SA, 28SD, H3, 12S, 16S, and cytb (~3600 bp). Our results support the monophyly of the cricket clade, and its subdivision into two clades: mole crickets and ant-loving crickets on the one hand, and all the other crickets on the other (i.e. crickets sensu stricto). Crickets sensu stricto form seven monophyletic clades, which support part of the OSF fami- lies, “subfamily groups”, or subfamilies: the mole crickets (OSF Gryllotalpidae), the scaly crickets (OSF Mogoplistidae), and the true crickets (OSF Gryllidae) are recovered as monophyletic.

II, 28, 2015, pp. 341-365 INVERTEBRATI DELLE CAVITÀ DEI GESSI DI BRISIGHELLA E RONTANA ROBERTO FABBRI1, KATIA POLETTI2 Riassunto Nel 2013-14 è stata realizzata una ricerca sugli invertebrati a costumi ipogei dei sistemi carsici dei Gessi di Brisighella e Rontana. Nel complesso sono stati riscontrati 105 taxa e tra questi 4 sono troglobi o stigobi, 40 risultano troglofili e 61 troglosseni. Le specie troglobie e eutroglofile sono: Islamia piristoma, Diacyclops paolae, Niphargus gruppo longicaudatus, Androniscus dentiger, Deu- teraphorura sp. (nuova specie endemica delle cavità dell’area), Mesachorutes quadriocellatus, Do- lichopoda laetitiae, Choleva garganona. Dalla bibliografia deriva la segnalazione di 21 specie; 86 sono le entità raccolte nel 2013-14 e di queste 84 risultano inedite e soltanto 2 sono conferme di precedenti segnalazioni. Parole chiave: Invertebrati, grotte, Brisighella, Emilia-Romagna, Italia. Abstract During the period 2013-14, the fauna of hypogean invertebrates has been studied from the Gypsum areas of Brisighella and Rontana (Messinian Gypsum outcrops of the Vena del Gesso romagnola, Nor- thern Italy). 105 taxa were identified in total. Among them, 4 are troglobitic or stygobitic, 40 are tro- glophile and 61 are trogloxen. Troglobitic and eutroglophile species here found are: Islamia piristoma, Diacyclops paolae, Niphargus longicaudatus group, Androniscus dentiger, Deuteraphorura sp. (en- demic new species from the caves of the area),

Çakıcı, E-mail: [email protected] Received: 27. August 2012 / Accepted: 26. October 2012 / Available online: 01. November 2012 / Printed: December 2012 Abstract. External egg morphology of Melanogryllus desertus was studied with both light and scanning electron microscopy. Culture of this species was made at 26 ±2°C and 45±5% relative humidity in laboratory conditions. Mature female crickets laid eggs singly on cotton and they are carefully separated from each other. Eggs of M. desertus are yellow and thin-long shaped. While anterior end has sharp tip, posterior end is rounded. There was a micropylar opening in the anterior end. The surface of the egg is smooth, but posterior end bears small chorionic protrusions. Key words: Melanogryllus desertus, Gryllidae, egg, chorion, morphology. Introduction with gold and examined under a Jeol JSM-5200 scanning electron microscope (SEM). Some eggs are examined and photographed us- The egg shells are composed of vitelline envelope and ing a stereo-microscope (Olympus SZ61) attached with a digital camera (Camedia C-5060). chorion (Rosciszewska 1996a,b, Simiczyjew 1999, Poprawa & Rost 2004, Kubrakiewicz et al. 2005, Gaino et al. 2008). The orthopteroid egg shell, like that of many pterygote insects, Results commonly consists of three layers: the vitellin envelope, the endochorion, and the exochorion.
