Overgaard: Vertical distribution of insect populations in the free air space ofbeech woodland. Ent. Meddr 54: 169-178. Copenhagen, Denmark, 1987. ISSN 0013-8851. The vertical distribution of nocturnal aerial insect populations - especially Diptera Nematocera - in a high-holed beech stand was recorded by means of light traps placed at four levels from the forest floor to the top canopy. The insects were mainly trapped near the forest floor and to some extent in the beech canopy; the number recorded in the trunk space and above the top canopy was distinctly lower. In Tipulinae and Mycetophilidae, the vertical distribution declined with increasing height irrespective of season and weather; 80-85% of all specimens were recorded at ground level. In Limoniinae, Cecidomyiidae, Psychodidae and Sciaridae the vertical distribution pattern changed repeatedly during the season, being unimodal with a peak near the forest floor or bimodal with another one in the beech canopy. -

Structure of the Coxa and Homeosis of Legs in Nematocera (Insecta: Diptera)
Acta Zoologica (Stockholm) 85: 131–148 (April 2004) StructureBlackwell Publishing, Ltd. of the coxa and homeosis of legs in Nematocera (Insecta: Diptera) Leonid Frantsevich Abstract Schmalhausen-Institute of Zoology, Frantsevich L. 2004. Structure of the coxa and homeosis of legs in Nematocera Kiev-30, Ukraine 01601 (Insecta: Diptera). — Acta Zoologica (Stockholm) 85: 131–148 Construction of the middle and hind coxae was investigated in 95 species of Keywords: 30 nematoceran families. As a rule, the middle coxa contains a separate coxite, Insect locomotion – Homeotic mutations the mediocoxite, articulated to the sternal process. In most families, this coxite – Diptera – Nematocera is movably articulated to the eucoxite and to the distocoxite area; the coxa is Accepted for publication: radially split twice. Some groups are characterized by a single split. 1 July 2004 The coxa in flies is restricted in its rotation owing to a partial junction either between the meron and the pleurite or between the eucoxite and the meropleurite. Hence the coxa is fastened to the thorax not only by two pivots (to the pleural ridge and the sternal process), but at the junction named above. Rotation is impossible without deformations; the role of hinges between coxites is to absorb deformations. This adaptive principle is confirmed by physical modelling. Middle coxae of limoniid tribes Eriopterini and Molophilini are compact, constructed by the template of hind coxae. On the contrary, hind coxae in all families of Mycetophiloidea and in Psychodidae s.l. are constructed like middle ones, with the separate mediocoxite, centrally suspended at the sternal process. These cases are considered as homeotic mutations, substituting one structure with a no less efficient one. -

Comparative Anatomy of the Fasciolariids Pustulatirus Ogum and Hemipolygona Beckyae from Brazil (Gastropoda: Buccinoidea: Peristerniinae)

Quinta da Boa Vista s/n, São Cristóvão. CEP 20940-040 Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil. Summary: The Brazilian species Pustulatirus ogum and Hemipolygona beckyae were examined, and certain morphologi- cal characters were described. Both species were originally assigned to the genus Latirus, considered as a heterogeneous complex. The radulae of both species are like that which characterizes Latirus, in which the innermost cusp of the rachidian tooth is well developed but always smaller than the other cusps. This feature differs from Leucozonia, in which this cusp is reduced or absent. The penis tapers terminally, and the tapered part may be long (more than half the total penis length), as in H. beckyae, or very short (less than half the total penis length), as in P. ogum. The anatomical data observed in both species are discussed under the framework of fasciolariid systematics and they appear to be widespread among other fasciolariid spe- cies. For this reason, to date, the soft-part features here provided and those known from previously studied species of Latirus are not useful for delineating precise generic diagnoses. -

It is generally a guide to the juveniles (larvae or nymphs) and includes only a few adults. It is not a comprehensive guide to all the animals you might collect. Due to the lack of any existing guide for freshwater invertebrates on the Plateau we anticipate that this will become an essential field tool for students and researchers. Detailed taxonomic identifications of fauna will require more comprehensive sample collection protocols and identification keys, which are beyond the scope of this publication. -
Current Status of Philippine Mollusk Museum Collections and Research, and Their Implications on Biodiversity Science and Conservation

Such assessments can contribute to a more comprehensive evaluation of natural history museums in the Philippines, as well as biodiversity management. This review showed that local museums in the Philippines have much to improve in terms of their accessibility and geographic coverage in order to effectively cater to research and conservation needs of the country. Online access to databases was lacking for local museums, making it cumbersome to retrieve collection information. The UST museum held the most species and subspecies across all museums (4899), comparable to the national museums of countries such as the USA and France. In terms of size, there were larger Philippine mollusk collections in museums abroad. Majority of mollusk specimens come from Regions 4 and 7, while the CAR and Region 12 were least sampled. Publications on Philippine mollusks are dominated by taxonomic and biodiversity research. -

THis is a small family represented in Europe by two genera, Trichocera (winter gnats) and Diazosma. The wing venation is similar to that of some TIPULIDAE (LIMONIINAE), but the larva much more closely resembles that of the ANISOPODIDAE (RHYPHIDAE) and prevents their inclusion in the TIPULIDAE. It is now usual to treat them as forming a separate family allied both to the TIPULIDAE and to the ANISOPODIDAE. The essential differences between adult TRICHOCERIDAE and TrPULIDAE lie in the head, the most obvious one being the presence of ocelli in the former and their absence in the latter. A second difference lies in the shape of the maxillae, a character in which the TRICHOCERIDAE resemble the ANISOPODIDAE rather than the TrPULIDAE. Other characters separating the TRICHOCERIDAE from most if not all of the TIPULIDAE are : vein 2A extremely short (figs. -

The genus Pseudolatirus Bellardi, 1884, with the Miocene type species Fusus bilineatus Hörnes, 1853, has been used for 13 Miocene to Early Pleistocene fossil species and eight Recent species and has traditionally been placed in the fasciolariid subfamily Peristerniinae Tryon, 1880. Although the fossil species are apparently peristerniines, the Recent species were in their majority suspected to be most closely related to Granulifusus Kuroda & Habe, 1954 in the subfamily Fusininae Wrigley, 1927.
