With kind permission. Preface by the editors The present work is historic in two ways: It was created some time ago, and it has a unique significance, despite its age. Hippolyte Janvier (1892-1986) had summarized his "Comportements d'Abeilles Colletidae" in 1979, in a manuscript of 344 pages containing an account of his long-term studies in apidology. He mentioned the work in an autobiographical sketch in Sphecos 1 (October 1979). His records indicate that the data go back to the twenties of the 20th Century. Janvier had worked in France, especially in the regions of Toulouse and Poitou-Charentes in western France, and in Spain and Portugal. Important in their own right are observations and collections made in South America, especially Chile. The extensive documentation of his studies was not made available in one of the usual published forms, but he did issue as private edition, a “Reprographie du mémoire original”. The fourth copy (30 are said to have been printed) was received in 1987 with his legacy at the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle Paris (MNHN). This copy served as the template for the present edition. The most amazing thing is that everyone who works on this subject either knows about this text, or should know about it, although it was never really published. Further large scale studies ("Comportement des Crabroniens", in two volumes in 1977 and "Larves d'Hyménoptères nidifiants solitaires", 1979) were treated similarly by Janvier. Our initial idea was to make this extraordinary work available and exploitable for a broader public. Over several decades Janvier had collected a large amount of bionomic data that exist nowhere else. Such data are needed primarily for nature conservation and ecological studies. While some limited data are already available, no other comprehensive comparison exists, and Janvier’s data should be published to ensure that they are on permanent record. How reliable these data are, can only be tested by further investigation, but they would seem to represent a valuable foundation. We have presented the original work in a form that could be called a "historic reprint". A special role is played by the numerous ink drawings, whose precision and woodcut-like style are almost a trademark of Janvier. iii © Entomofauna Ansfelden/München, download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Our approach required the retention of the original content of the private edition as far as possible, leaving the reader to adopt the necessary critical distance that the passage of time has made necessary. The editors could not check everything, so – regarding all sorts of details – maintenance of critical distance is appropriate. Would it not therefore be delightful if someone were inspired by Janvier’s work to repeat these studies in a critical way? Our goal nevertheless required the building of a bridge to the current state of knowledge. Above all, we wanted to provide adequate access to the current names of the taxa. This often involved more than just nomenclatural problems. As the Janvier Collection is preserved in Paris, we were able to examine some of Janvier’s specimens and try to determine what he really had before him. This proved to be difficult in practice, because the attribution of specimens in the collection to specific figures could not be established. The original systematic order and labelling are only very roughly retained, as is not uncommon in the personal collection of a naturalist. The locality and name labels served mainly as reminders for the uninitiated. Janvier was an observer, who did not work as would a systematic taxonomist, although from his collection can be seen that he made quite an effort to stay abreast of the taxonomic knowledge of his time. The specimens were arranged systematically, perhaps by the owner (87th birthday in 1979), but seem later to have been partly rearranged, perhaps during the handover to the museum. Misidentifications are barely distinguishable from cases of incorrect arranging. Some specimens in Janvier's boxes have a reference number that surely refers to a catalogue, but nobody knows whether this catalogue was bequeathed with the collection. Thus, it is impossible to say on which specimens Janvier based his observations, while the locality remains unknown. At present we can often only express informed opinions about these. In the Paris Museum many of his preserved nests are present, but it would only with great difficulty be possible to access and inventory them. They are not covered in the present work. We add our comments, presented so that they are clearly distinguished from the text of the original manuscript. Holger Dathe edited Hylaeus, Michael Kuhlmann Colletes and the remaining exotic species. Viewed formally, the original manuscript also proved to be exceptional. Claire Villemant undertook the sophisticated proofreading and created a linguistically consistent text, without altering its original character. Only formal errors were corrected, not the substance of any statements. The reader will find the views of Hippolyte Janvier expressed, not those of the editors. For encouraging us to start this project and diverse support in its realization, thanks are due especially to Mr. Maximilian Schwarz (Ansfelden). In the name of the directorate of the MNHN, Prof. Dr. Thierry Bourgoin kindly gave us permission to conduct the work. Mrs. Agnièle Touret-Alby, collection manager in the MNHN in Paris, helped us to study the collection of H. Janvier. Mr. José E. Mondaca, Sochient Sociedad Chilena Entomologia, allowed friendly the public- ation of the portrait photo. Prof. Dr. Dr.h.c. Bernhard Klausnitzer (Dresden) guided the project with valuable advice. Mr. Andrew D. Liston (Müncheberg) supported us as a native-speaker in preparing the final drafts of passages in English. We sincerely thank all of them. Préface par l'éditeurs Le présent travail est historique à deux points de vue : publié il y a plusieurs décennies, il demeure à ce jour unique en son genre. Hippolyte Janvier (1892-1986) a achevé son ouvrage "Comportements d'Abeilles Colletidae" en 1979 ; ce manuscrit de 344 pages fait la synthèse des multiples observations qu’il a accumulées sur la biologie des abeilles au cours d’une grande partie de sa vie. Janvier avait mentionné ce travail dans une esquisse autobiographique publiée dans le premier volume de Sphecos (Octobre 1979), rappelant que ses recherches en apidologie avaient débuté au cours des années 1920. Il a poursuivi celles-ci en France, principalement à Toulouse et en Poitou-Charentes, ainsi qu’en Espagne et au Portugal. Mais ses premières observations et collectes réalisées en Amérique du sud, au Chili notamment, sont aussi d’un grand intérêt. Les volumineuses données tirées de ses études sur les abeilles n’ont pas été publiées dans une revue scientifique mais à compte d’auteur sous forme de “Reprographie du mémoire original”. La quatrième copie (parmi les 30 sensées avoir été publiées) faisait partie du legs déposé en 1987 au Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris (MNHN). Cette copie a servi de modèle à la présente édition. Le plus étonnant est que toute personne qui travaille sur les abeilles connaît ce texte, ou du moins en a eu connaissance même s’il n’a jamais été publié à grande échelle. D’autres ouvrages sur d’aussi vastes sujets ("Comportement des Crabroniens", deux volumes, 1977, et "Larves d'Hyménoptères nidifiants solitaires", 1979) ont

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.

Journal of Hymenoptera Research 81: 143–164. https://doi. org/10.3897/jhr.81.61067 Abstract Disturbance sounds to deter antagonists are widespread among insects but have never been recorded for the larvae of bees. Here, we report on the production of disturbance sounds by the postdefecating larva (“prepupa”) of the Palaearctic osmiine bee Hoplitis (Alcidamea) tridentata, which constructs linear series of brood cells in excavated burrows in pithy plant stems. Upon disturbance, the prepupa produces two types of sounds, one of which can be heard up to a distance of 2–3 m (“stroking sounds”), whereas the other is scarcely audible by bare ear (“tapping sounds”). To produce the stroking sounds, the prepupa rapidly pulls a horseshoe-shaped callosity around the anus one to five times in quick succession over the cocoon wall before it starts to produce tapping sounds by knocking a triangularly shaped callosity on the clypeus against the cocoon wall in long uninterrupted series of one to four knocks per second.

    WEB-INTEGRATED TAXONOMY AND SYSTEMATICS OF THE PARASITIC WASP FAMILY SIGNIPHORIDAE (HYMENOPTERA, CHALCIDOIDEA) A Dissertation by ANAMARIA DAL MOLIN Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, James B. Woolley Committee Members, Mariana Mateos Raul F. Medina Robert A. Wharton John M. Heraty Head of Department, David Ragsdale December 2014 Major Subject: Entomology Copyright 2014 Anamaria Dal Molin ABSTRACT This work focuses on the taxonomy and systematics of parasitic wasps of the family Signiphoridae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea), a relatively small family of chalcidoid wasps, with 79 described valid species in 4 genera: Signiphora Ashmead, Clytina Erdös, Chartocerus Motschulsky and Thysanus Walker. A phylogenetic analysis of the internal relationships in Signiphoridae, a discussion of its supra-specific classification based on DNA sequences of the 18S rDNA, 28S rDNA and COI genes, and taxonomic studies on the genera Clytina, Thysanus and Chartocerus are presented. In the phylogenetic analyses, all genera except Clytina were recovered as monophyletic. The classification into subfamilies was not supported. Out of the four currently recognized species groups in Signiphora, only the Signiphora flavopalliata species group was supported. The taxonomic work was conducted using advanced digital imaging, content management systems, having in sight the online delivery of taxonomic information. The evolution of changes in the taxonomic workflow and dissemination of results are reviewed and discussed in light of current bioinformatics. The species of Thysanus and Clytina are revised and redescribed, including documentation of type material. Four new species of Thysanus and one of Clytina are described.

This issue is brought to you during the Covid-19 pandemic, with many of you likely cooped up at home, with insect collections worldwide closed for business! Perhaps for this reason this issue is pretty heavy, not just with articles but with images. There were many submissions to the Flies are Amazing! section and the Dipterists Lairs! I hope you enjoy them! Just to touch on an error I made in the Fall issue’s introduction… In outlining the change to “Spring” and “Fall” issues, instead of April and October issues, I said “But rest assured, I WILL NOT produce Fall issues after 20 December! Nor Spring issues after 20 March!” But of course I meant no Spring issues after 20 June! Instead of hitting the end of spring, I used the beginning. Oh well… Thank you to everyone for sending in such interesting articles! I encourage all of you to consider contributing articles that may be of interest to the Diptera community, or for larger manuscripts, the Fly Times Supplement series. Fly Times offers a great forum to report on research activities, to make specimen requests, to report interesting observations about flies or new and improved methods, to advertise opportunities for dipterists, to report on or announce meetings relevant to the community, etc., with all the digital images you wish to provide.
