Čiampor, Jr. Zoology Lab, Institute of Botany, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Dúbravská cesta 9, SK – 845 23 Bratislava, Slovakia ([email protected]) Introduction Elmidae or Riffle Beetles are a moderately large cosmopolitan family of True Water Beetles (see Jäch & Balke 2008). Adults and larvae are usually considered to be aquatic, however, adults of several genera, e.g. Potamophilus Germar, 1811 are often encountered a little above the water line or in spray zones of water- falls and cascades. Members of this family are generally living in lotic habitats, few species may be found in lakes or ponds and a few species are recorded from subterranean waters. Strictly terrestrial representatives, which do exist in other typical water beetle families (e.g. Dytiscidae, Hydrophilidae, Hydraenidae, Dryopidae) are completely unknown among elmids. Pupation takes place above the water line. Elmidae are often used in ecological running water monitoring programs (Moog & Jäch 2003). In the past, elmids have even been part of the diet of man. Austrelmis condimentarius was used as seasoning for food in South America. This species was reported to have considerable commercial value (Philippi 1864). The morphology of Elmidae was described in detail by Kodada & Jäch (2005) (second edition in press). Elmidae belong to Polyphaga and are currently placed in Elateriformia. Within Elateriformia, they are usually attributed to Byrrhoidea (Kodada & Jäch 2005, Bouchard et al. 2011, Kundrata et al. 2013, Bocak et al. 2014), or Dryopoidea (Crowson 1955, 1981, Lawrence & Newton 1982, Hunt et al. 2007). Protelmidae, hitherto regarded as a tribe of Elminae, are here elevated to family rank, because of strongly deviating external and genitalic features. Adults of Protelmidae are aquatic (three genera live in riffles of running water, one genus is troglobiontic). Protelmid larvae are still unknown. Among the “great six” water beetle families (i.e. families with more than thousand species, see Jäch & Balke 2008), only the three largest ones (Dytiscidae, Hydraenidae, Hydrophilidae) have been covered by world catalogues recently. The last world catalogue of Elmidae was published more than one hundred years ago, by Zaitzev (1910) and included 297 species. Elmidae were still regarded as a subfamily of Dryopidae by Zaitzev (1910), although various authors have already treated Elmidae as a distinct family earlier (e.g. Grouvelle 1889b, 1892a, 1896a, d, 1900b, 1906b, c, 1908, Reitter 1886, 1899). The North American Elmidae were catalogued by Brown (1983), the Palearctic elmids were published by Jäch et al. (2006) (second edition in press), and the Neotropical taxa were compiled by Segura et al. (2013). Catalogues for the Australian, Afrotropical, and the Oriental fauna have never been published, but a check list of the Australian species was provided by Glaister (1999). xii Introduction A preliminary version of this catalogue was published by Joel K. Hallan in the internet (“Synopsis of the described Coleoptera of the world”: http://insects.tamu.edu/research/collection/hallan/test/Arthropoda/Insects/ Coleoptera/Family/Coleoptera1.htm), based on a card catalogue by H.P. Brown (1921–2008), authored by M.A. Jäch and J. Kodada. This preliminary version was updated until June 2010. The reason for placing this preliminary version in the internet was simply to provide a widely accessible source of useful informa- tion, although it was still very incomplete, especially with regard to distribu- tional data. Particular Problems In the course of the compilation of this catalogue we faced numerous nomen- clatorial problems. These concerned for instance the correct spelling of taxa names (e.g. decisions between correct and incorrect original spellings (sensu ICZN 1999: Art. 32), or treatment of epithets that are nouns in apposition), treatment of “subsequent spellings” (sensu ICZN 1999: Art. 33), correct identity and spelling of author names, correct publication dates, correct type localities, the availability and correct authority of some very poorly described species published in Zhang & Yang (1995), and finally the unsatisfactory quality of vari- ous global online lists. We were able to check all references listed in this catalogue, except for one: Crotch (1872), who published a nomen nudum (Limnius sinaiticus). Taxa Names Many of the species group epithets erected by Hinton are definitely nouns in the nominative singular standing in apposition to the generic name (ICZN 1999: Art. 11.9.1.2). They are independent of the grammatical gender of the generic name (ICZN 1999: Art. 31.2.1). Subsequent authors, who did not realize, that these epithet names were in fact nouns, unwarrantedly used their adjecti- val forms or changed their gender when transferring the species to genera of different sex. Some examples: Macrelmis aeolus (Hinton, 1946b) [not aeolis], M. aleus (Hinton, 1946b) [not alea], M. aristaeus (Hinton, 1946b) [not aristea], M. celsus (Hinton, 1946b) [not celsa], M.

    ~ ~ WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES A Survey of Rare and Endangered Mayflies of Selected RESEARCH Rivers of Wisconsin by Richard A. Lillie REPORT110 Bureau of Research, Monona December 1995 ~ Abstract The mayfly fauna of 25 rivers and streams in Wisconsin were surveyed during 1991-93 to document the temporal and spatial occurrence patterns of two state endangered mayflies, Acantha­ metropus pecatonica and Anepeorus simplex. Both species are candidates under review for addition to the federal List of Endang­ ered and Threatened Wildlife. Based on previous records of occur­ rence in Wisconsin, sampling was conducted during the period May-July using a combination of sampling methods, including dredges, air-lift pumps, kick-nets, and hand-picking of substrates. No specimens of Anepeorus simplex were collected. Three specimens (nymphs or larvae) of Acanthametropus pecatonica were found in the Black River, one nymph was collected from the lower Wisconsin River, and a partial exuviae was collected from the Chippewa River. Homoeoneuria ammophila was recorded from Wisconsin waters for the first time from the Black River and Sugar River. New site distribution records for the following Wiscon­ sin special concern species include: Macdunnoa persimplex, Metretopus borealis, Paracloeodes minutus, Parameletus chelifer, Pentagenia vittigera, Cercobrachys sp., and Pseudiron centra/is. Collection of many of the aforementioned species from large rivers appears to be dependent upon sampling sand-bottomed substrates at frequent intervals, as several species were relatively abundant during only very short time spans. Most species were associated with sand substrates in water < 2 m deep. Acantha­ metropus pecatonica and Anepeorus simplex should continue to be listed as endangered for state purposes and receive a biological rarity ranking of critically imperiled (S1 ranking), and both species should be considered as candidates proposed for listing as endangered or threatened as defined by the Endangered Species Act.

ABSTRACT. A taxonomic key for the genera of Elmidae (Coleoptera, Byrrhoidea) occurring in Goiás State, Brazil, including new records and distributional notes. Despite their great diversity and high abundance in Neotropical aquatic environments, the fauna of Elmidae remains practically unknown in some areas and even entire biomes in this region. In this work we bring, for the first time, faunistic data for the Elmidae of central Brazil. The aim of this work was to inventory the Elmidae fauna in central, southwestern and southeastern Goiás State, Brazil and to produce a taxonomic key, at genus level, for adults from the studied region. The taxonomic key presented herein offers means for the identification of all the 13 genera known to occur in Goiás, 11 of them being new records for the State. Moreover, the number of named species registered for Goiás increased from one to nine. KEYWORDS. Cerrado biome; Insecta; Neotropics; Riffle beetles.

SGMA seeks to achieve sustainability, which is defined as the absence of several undesirable results, including “depletions of interconnected surface water that have significant and unreasonable adverse impacts on beneficial users of surface water” (Water Code §10721). The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is a science-based, nonprofit organization with a mission to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. Like humans, plants and animals often rely on groundwater for survival, which is why TNC helped develop, and is now helping to implement, SGMA. Earlier this year, we launched the Groundwater Resource Hub, which is an online resource intended to help make it easier and cheaper to address environmental requirements under SGMA. As a first step in addressing when depletions might have an adverse impact, The Nature Conservancy recommends identifying the beneficial users of surface water, which include environmental users. This is a critical step, as it is impossible to define “significant and unreasonable adverse impacts” without knowing what is being impacted. To make this easy, we are providing this letter and the accompanying documents as the best available science on the freshwater species within the boundary of your groundwater sustainability agency (GSA).
