Abstract The genus Rhynchium Spinola, 1806, is studied in Vietnam. Two species are recorded, namely, R. brunneum brunneum (Fabricius, 1793) and R. haemorrhoidale haemorrhoidale (Fabricius, 1775). A key to Vietnamese species of the genus is presented along with new distributional records. Twenty-one species and 36 subspecies are listed in a first checklist of species of the genus. New synonymy proposed in the present study is R. brunneum ceylonicum Giordani Soika, 1994, under the nominotypical subspecies R. b. brunneum (Fabricius, 1793). Key words: distribution, new record, Oriental region, synonymy, Vietnamese species. Introduction The genus Rhynchium belonging to subfamily Eumeninae, named by Spinola (1806) with the type species Rygchium europaeum Spinola, 1806, is an Old World genus, comprising relatively large-size species mainly distributed in the Oriental Region. The main characters to distinguish wasps of this genus from wasps of other genera are the scutellum and posterior part of mesoscutum smooth and at most finely and sparsely punctuate. After referring to data from a website (http://www.eol/pages/31233), Kumar & Sharma (2013) reckoned there were 47 species with several subspecies in the genus Rhynchium. Siddiqui et al. (2015) stated that “the genus Rhynchium includes slightly more than 20 species and many subspecies, distributed throughout the Old World”. Hence, the number of the Rhynchium species has not yet been obvious to date. There have been two species in the genus Rhynchium recorded from Vietnam so far. The first Rhynchium species recorded was R. brunneum (Fabricius, 1793) by Giordani Soika (1986). After eight years (1994), he mentioned this as a nominotypical subspecies R. brunneum brunneum. The second species recorded for Vietnam was R. haemorrhoidale haemorrhoidale (Fabricius, 1775) by Nguyen et al. (2015). In present paper, taxonomic notes on the genus are mentioned along with a first checklist of species of the genus. Ecol. Mont., 7, 2016, 530-537 PHAM & KUMAR Materials and Methods The materials examined in the present paper are housed in the collections of the Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources (IEBR) and of Zoological Survey of India, India (NZC). The morphological and colour characters were observed and described on pinned and dried specimens under a stereoscopic microscope. Photographic images were taken by using a Leica Stereomicroscope with LAS software version 3.6.0. Provinces and cities are alphabetically listed in the text as distribution of species in the genus.

Elsewhere: India, Seychelles, Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, Guam, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Marianas, Myanmar, New Britain, Pakistan, Palau, China, Taiwan, Thailand. Remarks: There are three subspecies recorded from the Oriental Region namely, R. brunneum brunneum (Fabricius, 1793), R. brunneum ceylonicum Giordani Soika, 1994 and R. brunneum maladivum Gusenleitner, 2003. Out of these three subspecies, the nominotypical subspecies namely R. b. brunneum is widely distributed in the Oriental Region. R. b. ceylonicum is recorded from Sri Lanka and R. b. maladivum recorded from the Maldives (Kumar & Sharma, 2013). We have examined specimens collected from Sri Lanka. These specimens are of the subspecies R. b. ceylonicum. This subspecies is distinguished from R. b. brunneum by colour pattern. In R. b. brunneum the body is marked with black and reddish brown colouration, whereas R. b. ceylonicum the body is marked with black and yellowish brown colouration. Among specimens collected in Vietnam, there are 5 specimens that they have a slight difference in colour from the other specimens [1 ♂, Mai Chau, Hoa Binh Province; 2 ♂, Hung Nhan, Hung Ha, Thai Binh Province; 1 ♀ + 1 ♂, Hong Thai Tay, Dong Trieu, Quang Ninh Province]. Their colour pattern is very close to that of the subspecies R. b. ceylonicum, and these specimens can represent the formally named color form R. b. ceylonicum. Thus we propose to synonymize R. b. ceylonicum under the nominotypical subspecies R. b. brunneum. The black marks on the body of R. b. brunneum are highly variable. On mesoscutum: A small triangular mark in front can be extended to become a large mark at the centre, and a narrow transverse line along the apex can be also extended to become a large line at the central part. Therefore two marks can join at the centre. On Metasoma: from basal third to basal two thirds of metasomal tergite I and II, metasomal sternite II from almost to entirely black, metasomal sternite III-VI in females and metasomal sternite III-VII in males from basal third to basal two thirds. Marks on metasoma are also from light to dark black colouration. A female collected at Dong Minh commune, Tien Hai district, Thai Binh province has the mandible different from that of all of the other specimens of R. brunneum and also of the other Rhynchium species (Figs. 3-4). This means that this specimen can be of a new species. But at present time only a specimen of the female is available it is arranged under the nominotypical species R. brunneum and the future studies should include it. 2.

Beitr. 42/1 95-315 31.7.2010 A Catalogue of the Eumeninae (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) of the Ethiopian Region excluding Malagasy Subregion. Part II: Genera Delta de SAUSSURE 1885 to Zethus FABRICIUS 1804 and Species Incertae Sedis J.M. CARPENTER, J. GUSENLEITNER & M. MADL A b s t r a c t : The genera in alphabetical order from Delta de SAUSSURE 1885 to Zethus FABRICIUS 1804 and species incertae sedis are catalogued. Several taxonomic changes are proposed. K e y w o r d s : Vespidae, Eumeninae, Ethiopian Region, catalogue, taxonomy. Introduction This is the second part of a catalogue of the Eumeninae of the Ethiopian Region excluding Malagasy Subregion. The first part was published by CARPENTER et al. (2009) consisting of the genera in alphabetical order from Aethiopicodynerus GUSENLEITNER 1997 to Cyrtolabulus van der VECHT 1969, as well as a key to the genera. That paper should also be consulted for explanation of conventions we have followed. This second part deals with all the remaining genera and the species incertae sedis and thus brings the alphabetical catalogue to an end. As CARPENTER & MADL (2009: Linzer biologische Beiträge 41 (2): 1871-1935) recently published a catalogue of the Vespidae of the Malagasy Subregion, the Eumeninae of the whole Ethiopian Region have now been treated.

Beitr. 28/2 829-834 31.12.1996 Vespidae and Sphecidae from the Seychelles (Insecta, Hymenoptera) M. MADL, P. MATYOT & S. SCHÖDL Abstract: Records of five species of Vespidae and nine species of Sphecidae are dealt with. Rhynchium brunneum FABRICIUS, Subancistrocerus sichelii SAUSSURE (Vespidae) and Liris haemorrhoidalis jocotarsa SAUSSURE (Sphecidae) are recorded as new to the Seychelles. Key words: Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Sphecidae, Seychelles Introduction The knowledge of the aculeate Hymenoptera of the Seychelles is mainly based on the results of the Mission Alluaud 1892 (PEREZ 1895) and of the Percy Sladen Trust Expeditions 1905 (CAMERON 1907) and 1908//09 (TURNER 1911, MEADE WALDO 1912). In addition, VESEY FITZGERALD published his records of 1936-38 in 1956. This paper is based on the material collected by the authors on Mahe, Praslin and Silhouette. Five species of Vespidae and nine species of Sphecidae were collected. Rhynchium brunneum FABRICIUS, Subancistrocerus sichelii SAUSSURE (Vespidae) and Liris haemorrhoidalis jocotarsa SAUSSURE (Sphecidae) are recorded as new to the fauna of the Seychelles. Up till now five species of Vespidae and 15 species of Sphecidae are recorded from the Inner Seychelles. We are indebted to Dr. J. Gusenleitner (Linz) for his help in identifying Vespidae. We would like to thank Mr.

    International Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences Print ISSN: 2656-0097 | Online ISSN: 0975-1491 Vol 13, Issue 4, 2021 Review Article HYMENOPTERA TOXINS: BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY, PHARMACEUTICAL AND THERAPEUTIC USES SIMRAN SHARMA, RAVI KANT UPADHYAY Department of Zoology, Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gorakhpur University, Gorakhpur Email: [email protected] Received: 09 Dec 2020, Revised and Accepted: 09 Feb 2021 ABSTRACT The present review article explains the salient features of hornet venom toxins, their physiological, biological and pharmacological effect on animals and man. Hornets sting very fast and inflict venom, which is more dangerous than those of bees. Hornet venom contains both proteinaceous and non-proteinaceous peptides i.e. scapin, adolapin, mellitin, mastoparans and enzymes, mainly phospholipase and hyaluronidase, which show multiple biological effects i.e. cytolytic, hemotoxic, neuro-inhibitor, anticancer, anti-parasitic, immune hypersensitive, inflammatory, antimicrobial and anti-insect activities. Hornet stings are more painful to humans than typical wasp stings because hornet venom contains a large amount (5%) of acetylcholine. Hornet toxin components interact with receptors, ion channels and gated channels and affect the permeability functions of cells. Heavy envenomation shows quick pathophysiological lethal effects in man and pet. This article emphasizes the use of various hornet venom components for the production of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic and analgesic, anticancer drugs and insecticides. Hornet venom allergens could be used to prepare the rational design of component-resolved diagnosis of allergy and venom immunotherapy of inflicting patients.
