The last The first information about longhorn beetles from data about longicorns from the 19th century was the present territory of Latvia was published in the published by Seidlitz in his monographs about second half of the 18th century by Fischer (1778, the beetles of Baltia (present teritory of Estonia 1784, 1791): 14 species of longhorn beetles are and Latvia, except the historical region of Latgale mentioned in these works. (eastern part of Latvia)). In the first volume Seidlitz (1872 – 1875) has mentioned 90 species Several authors in their works have published and in the second volume 96 species have been faunistic data about the longhorn beetles during mentioned (Seidlitz 1887 – 1891). the 19th century. First data was published by Groschke (1805) who mentioned 14 longhorn The first records of the longhorn beetles from the beetles, considered as pests. Later, Precht (1818) 20th century were published by Heyden (1903), but published a faunistic review about beetles of the most important publications of the first part of Rīga district, where 67 species of longicorns previous century were published by Mikutowicz are mentioned (amount of species is different (1905) and Lackschewitz (Lackschewitz 1927, nowadays because of taxonomic changes). 1942, Lackschewitz & Mikutowicz 1939) – data Fleischer (1829) published a list of only those about 24 species has been recorded. Several species which he considered as new for local reviews about forestry pests were made from fauna – 14 species. Gimmerthal (1829) published 1926 until 1939, but no more than six longhorn a catalogue of beetles of Livonia, where he beetles have been mentioned in the same review. has mentioned 63 species of longhorn beetles. More important review about forestry pests 165 Dunskis A., Barševskis A. was carried out by Brammanis (1940), who has The catalogue of Latvian longhorn beetles is mentioned 22 species of longicorns, which has based on the analysis of data published for been considered as pests. The same author has almost two and a half centuries (1778 – 2018) been working on the distribution and ecology of that pertains to the territory that is nowadays Hylotrupes bajulus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Brammanis Latvia.

  • Artificial Laboratory Breeding of Xylophagous Insect Larvae and Its Application in Cytogenetic Studies 2)
    Eos, t. LXII, págs. 7-22 (1986). Artificial laboratory breeding of xylophagous insect larvae and its application in cytogenetic studies 2) BY J. R. BARAGAÑO, A. NOTARIO y M. G. DE VIEDMA. INTRODUCTION HAYDAK, in 1936, managed to rear Oryzaephilus surinantensis (L.) in the la- boratory using an artificial diet. Many researchers have followed in his footsteps, so that since then, approximately 260 species of Coleoptera have been raised on nonnatural diets. Among these species there are 121 which are eminently xylophagous. They belong to seven families (Buprestidae, Elateridae, Bostrychiclae, Lyctidae, Myc- teridae, Cerambyciclae and Curculionidae). Their importance, from the economic point of view, varies widely : some of them attack living trees making them a pest ; others feed on dead or decaying wood so that they may be considered harmless or even beneficial (for example in the decomposition of tree stumps in forests) ; finally, a few cause damage to seasoned timber. Therefore, specialists in artificial breeding have been motivated by different objectives, and so have chosen the insect or insects in each case which were most suitable for obtaining specific desired results. It is clear that in the majority of cases the choice was not made at random. Generally, the insect studied was either recently established as a pest or well documented as such. •With these laboratory breeding experiments it is possible on the one hand to draw conclusions about the insects' nutritive requirements, parasitism, ethology etc ; and on the other to obtain enough specimens to try out different phytosanitary treatments with them. Both of these achievements are applicable to effectiye control of the insect problem.

These, however, may constitute important safe havens for saproxylic organisms since forest reserves are relatively numerous in Europe. Saproxylic beetles are among the key groups for the assessment of biodiversity in forest habitats and longhorn beetles may play an important role in bioindication as they are ecologically associated with various micro- habitats and considered a very heterogeneous family of insects. To study the role of forest reserves as important habitats for saproxylic beetles, we compared cerambycid assemblages in corresponding pairs of sites (nature reserves and managed stands) in a forest region under high anthropogenic pressure (Upper Silesia, Poland, Central Europe).

STOJANOVIĆ2 1Institute for Nature Conservation of Serbia, Radnička 20a, 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia 2Fruška Gora National Park, Zmajev trg 1, 21208 Sremska Kamenica, Serbia ABSTRACT: Determinated of new longhorn beetle material (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) collected on Mt. Fruška Gora during the period of 2002 - 2005 has shown the presence of 29 species and three sub- species. Of that number, one species is new to the Serbian fauna, seven species or subspecies are regis- tered for the first time for Mt. Fruška Gora, three species are Balkan endemics, and 10 species or sub- species are rare in Serbia. The presence of Icosium tomentosum atticum Ganglbauer, 1881 in Serbia is confirmed by this entomological investigation. KEYWORDS: Cerambycidae, endemic and rare species, Balkan Mt. Fruška Gora INTRODUCTION Mount Fruška Gora is in many respects (geomorphological, faunistic, floristic, etc.) a special mountain massif. It is cut off from the rest of the Dinarid system and is surrounded by lowland. Since the 1950’s a few researchers investigated the mountain’s entomofauna (ADAMOVIĆ, 1950, 1965; MIKŠIĆ, 1963; ILIĆ, 2005; PIL and STOJANOVIĆ, 2005a, b). Until now 126 cerambycid species were registered on this massif. That number includes some species which were there noted for the first time for Serbia, as well as rare and endemic species. MATERIAL AND METHODS Material was collected on field trips on Mt. Fruška Gora during the period of 2002 - 2005.

    THE RED LIST STATUS OF EUROPE’S OVERLOOKED SPECIES LIFE14 PRE BE 001 – Layman’s report This project was co-funded by the European Union under the LIFE Financial Instrument and the Grant Agreement n. LIFE14 PRE BE 001 About IUCN Created in 1948, IUCN represents one of the world’s largest and most diverse environmental networks. It harnesses the experience, resources and reach of more than 1,300 member organisations and the input of over 15,000 volunteer experts, organised in six commissions. IUCN is the global authority on the status of the natural world and the measures needed to safeguard it. The IUCN Global Species Programme supports the activities of the IUCN Species Survival Commission and individual Specialist Groups, as well as implementing global species conservation initiatives. It is an integral part of the IUCN Secretariat and is managed from IUCN’s international headquarters in Gland, Switzerland. What is the IUCN Red List? The European Red List The IUCN Red List of Threatened SpeciesTM is the When conducting regional or national assessments, world’s most comprehensive information source on and to ensure that the criteria are applied the extinction risk of plant and animal species. It is a appropriately at such scales, the IUCN has compilation of the conservation status of species at developed the Guidelines for Application of IUCN Red the global level, based on the best scientific List Criteria at Regional Levels.1 information available. The IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria are based on a set of quantitative criteria linked to population trends, size and structure, threats, and geographic ranges of species.

  • Wildfire Yields a Distinct Turnover of the Beetle Community in a Semi-Natural
    Fredriksson et al. Ecological Processes (2020) 9:44 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13717-020-00246-5 RESEARCH Open Access Wildfire yields a distinct turnover of the beetle community in a semi-natural pine forest in northern Sweden Emelie Fredriksson1* , Roger Mugerwa Pettersson1, Jörgen Naalisvaara2 and Therese Löfroth1 Abstract Background: Fires have been an important natural disturbance and pervasive evolutionary force in the boreal biome. Yet, fire suppression has made forest fires rare in the managed landscapes in Fennoscandia, causing significant habitat loss for saproxylic species such as polypores and insects. To better understand how the beetle community changes (species turnover) after a wildfire in a landscape with intense fire suppression, we monitored beetles with flight intercept traps the first 3 years as well as 12 years after a large wildfire in a national park in northern Sweden (a control/unburnt area was set up for the last year of sampling). Results: Species composition changed significantly among all studied years with a continuous turnover of species following the wildfire. The indicator species analysis showed that year 1 post-fire was mostly associated with cambium consumers and also the pyrophilous species Batrisodes hubenthali. Year 2 was the most abundant and species-rich year, with Tomicus piniperda as the most important indicator species. The indicator species year 3 were mostly secondary successional species, fungivores, and predators and were characterized by lower species diversity. Year 12 had higher diversity compared with year 3 but lower species richness and abundance. A control area was established during year 12 post-fire, and our analyses showed that the control area and burned area differed in species composition suggesting that the beetle community needs longer than 12 years to recover even after a low- intensive ground fire.

  • Boring Beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae, Buprestidae, Cerambycidae) in White Spruce (Picea Glauca (Moench) Voss) Ecosystems of Alaska
    United States Department of Agriculture Effect of Ecosystem Disturbance Forest Service on Diversity of Bark and Wood- Pacific Northwest Research Station Boring Beetles (Coleoptera: Research Paper PNW-RP-546 April 2002 Scolytidae, Buprestidae, Cerambycidae) in White Spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) Ecosystems of Alaska Richard A. Werner This publication reports research involving pesticides. It does not contain recommenda- tions for their use, nor does it imply that the uses discussed here have been registered. All uses of pesticides must be registered by appropriate state and federal agencies, or both, before they can be recommended. CAUTION: Pesticides can be injurious to humans, domestic animals, desirable plants, and fish or other wildlife—if they are not handled or applied properly. Use all pesticides selectively and carefully. Follow recommended practices for the disposal of surplus pesticides and pesticide containers. Author Richard A. Werner was a research entomologist (retired), Pacific Northwest Research Station, 8080 NW Ridgewood Drive, Corvallis, OR 97330.

Effect of ecosystem disturbance on diversity of bark and wood-boring beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae, Buprestidae, Cerambycidae) in white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) ecosystems of Alaska. Res. Pap. PNW-RP-546. Portland, OR: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station. 15 p. Fire and timber harvest are the two major disturbances that alter forest ecosystems in interior Alaska. Both types of disturbance provide habitats that attract wood borers and bark beetles the first year after the disturbance, but populations then decrease to levels below those in undisturbed sites.
