Biodiversity Data Journal 5: e21010. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.5.e21010 Abstract Background During a field course on spider taxonomy and ecology at the University of Helsinki, the authors had the opportunity to sample four plots with a dual objective of both teaching on field methods, spider identification and behaviour and uncovering the spider diversity patterns found in the southern coastal forests of Hankoniemi, Finland. As an ultimate goal, this field course intended to contribute to a global project that intends to uncover spider diversity patterns worldwide. With that purpose, a set of standardised methods and procedures was followed that allow the comparability of obtained data with numerous other projects being conducted across all continents. New information A total of 104 species and 1997 adults was collected. -

The park’s saproxylic beetle fauna, associated with dead wood and veteran trees, can be considered as nationally important. True flies associated with decaying wood add further significant species to the site’s saproxylic fauna. There is also a strong -
Hoverfly Newsletter No
Dipterists Forum Hoverfly Newsletter Number 48 Spring 2010 ISSN 1358-5029 I am grateful to everyone who submitted articles and photographs for this issue in a timely manner. The closing date more or less coincided with the publication of the second volume of the new Swedish hoverfly book. Nigel Jones, who had already submitted his review of volume 1, rapidly provided a further one for the second volume. In order to avoid delay I have kept the reviews separate rather than attempting to merge them. Articles and illustrations (including colour images) for the next newsletter are always welcome. Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 49 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2010 Dipterists Forum Bulletin) should be sent to me: David Iliff Green Willows, Station Road, Woodmancote, Cheltenham, Glos, GL52 9HN, (telephone 01242 674398), email:[email protected], to reach me by 20 May 2010. Please note the earlier than usual date which has been changed to fit in with the new bulletin closing dates. although we have not been able to attain the levels Hoverfly Recording Scheme reached in the 1980s. update December 2009 There have been a few notable changes as some of the old Stuart Ball guard such as Eileen Thorpe and Austin Brackenbury 255 Eastfield Road, Peterborough, PE1 4BH, [email protected] have reduced their activity and a number of newcomers Roger Morris have arrived.

Research of the Biodiversity of Tovacov Lakes
Research of the biodiversity of Tovacov lakes (Czech Republic) Main researcher: Jan Ševčík Research group: Vladislav Holec Ondřej Machač Jan Ševčík Bohumil Trávníček Filip Trnka March – September 2014 Abstract We performed biological surveys of different taxonomical groups of organisms in the area of Tovacov lakes. Many species were found: 554 plant species, 107 spider species, 27 dragonflies, 111 butterfly species, 282 beetle species, orthopterans 17 and 7 amphibian species. Especially humid and dry open habitats and coastal lake zones were inhabited by many rare species. These biotopes were found mainly at the places where mining residuals were deposited or at the places which were appropriately prepared for mining by removing the soil to the sandy gravel base (on conditions that the biotope was still in contact with water level and the biotope mosaic can be created at the slopes with low inclination and with different stages of ecological succession). Field study of biotope preferences of the individual species from different places created during mining was performed using phytosociological mapping and capture traps. Gained data were analyzed by using ordinate analyses (DCA, CCA). Results of these analyses were interpreted as follows: Technically recultivated sites are quickly getting species – homogenous. Sites created by ecological succession are species-richer during their development. Final ecological succession stage (forest) can be achieved in the same time during ecological succession as during technical recultivation. According to all our research results most biologically valuable places were selected. Appropriate management was suggested for these places in order to achieve not lowering of their biological diversity. To even improve their biological diversity some principles and particular procedures were formulated. -

Observations on Host Plants and Behaviour of Egg-Laying Females of Cheilosia Meigen (Diptera, Syrphidae) in Central Europe

(1996): Observations on host plants and behaviour of egg-laying females of Cheilosia Meigen (Diptera, Syrphidae) in Central Europe. - Volucella 2 (1/2), 77- 85. Stuttgart. Based on field observations hints are given for detection of egg-laying females of the genus Cheilosia Meigen. The results of a number of observations are reported, including some previously unknown host relationships. Oviposition occurs on the larval host plant. Therefore observing egg-laying females is a powerful method to improve knowledge of the spectrum of potential larval hosts and habitat. Zusammenfassung Auf der Grundlage von Freiland-Beobachtungen werden Hinweise zum charak teristischen Verhalten eiablagebereiter Weibchen der Gattung Cheilosia Meigen ge geben. Einige Ergebnisse von teilweise bisher unbekannten Wirtsbeziehungen wer den mitgeteilt. Nach gegenwärtigem Kenntnisstand erfolgt die Eiablage an die Wirts pflanze der Larve. Daher bietet das Beobachten von Weibchen bei der Eiablage eine gute Möglichkeit, die Kenntnisse um das Wirtspflanzenspektrum und das Habitat der Larven zu erweitern. Introduction Cheilosia Meigen, 1822 is one of the largest genera of the Syrphidae worldwide. About 300 Palaearctic species are listed by Peck (1988). The larvae are endophyto- phagous in stems, roots or leaves of herbs, more rarely under the bark of conifers, or they live in fungal fruiting bodies. Concerning the fauna of western Europe, data on the larval biology of almost 40 species are available (Stuke 1995a).
