Wildlife Review Cover Image: Hedgehog by Keith Kirk
Dumfries & Galloway Wildlife Review Cover Image: Hedgehog by Keith Kirk. Keith is a former Dumfries & Galloway Council ranger and now helps to run Nocturnal Wildlife Tours based in Castle Douglas. The tours use a specially prepared night tours vehicle, complete with external mounted thermal camera and internal viewing screens. Each participant also has their own state- of-the-art thermal imaging device to use for the duration of the tour. This allows participants to detect animals as small as rabbits at up to 300 metres away or get close enough to see Badgers and Roe Deer going about their nightly routine without them knowing you’re there.

The list of 279 species of aculeate Hymenoptera from the Jizerské hory Mts and Frýdlant region is presented. Altogether 13 critically endangered species, 22 endangered species, and 27 vulnerable species of the Czech Republic were found. The findings of Andrena tarsata Nylander, 1848, Anoplius tenuicornis (Tournier, 1889), Anthocopa villosa (Schenck, 1853), Crabro lapponicus Zetterstedt, 1838, Crossocerus walkeri (Shuckard, 1837), Dryudella femoralis (Moscary, 1877), Evagetes alamannicus (Blüthgen, 1944), Hylaeus annulatus (Lin- naeus, 1758), H. gracilicornis (Morawitz, 1867), Passaloecus monilicornis Dahlbom, 1842, Sphecodes spinulosus Hagens, 1875, Lasioglossum subfulvicorne austriacum Ebmer, 1973, and Mimumesa beaumonti (Van Lith, 1949) are of high faunistic importance. Key words: Hymenoptera, Aculeata, Jizerské hory Mts, Frýdlant region, faunistics, biology ÚVOD Žahadloví blanokřídlí (Hymenoptera: Aculeata) patří mezi velmi početné a ekonomicky významné skupiny hmyzu. Patří k nim význační opylovači (včely – Apoidea) i predátoři (sršni a vosy – Vespidae). V poslední době se ukazuje i velký význam této skupiny pro indikaci kva- lity lokalit. Řada druhů je na území České republiky buď kriticky ohrožena vyhubením, nebo jsou již považovány za regionálně vymizelé (Straka 2005a, b, c). -

Bees and Wasps of the East Sussex South Downs
A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 Abstract For six years between 2003 and 2008, over 100 site visits were made to fifteen chalk grassland and chalk heath sites within the South Downs of Vice-county 14 (East Sussex). This produced a list of 227 bee and wasp species and revealed the comparative frequency of different species, the comparative richness of different sites and provided a basic insight into how many of the species interact with the South Downs at a site and landscape level. The study revealed that, in addition to the character of the semi-natural grasslands present, the bee and wasp fauna is also influenced by the more intensively-managed agricultural landscapes of the Downs, with many species taking advantage of blossoming hedge shrubs, flowery fallow fields, flowery arable field margins, flowering crops such as Rape, plus plants such as buttercups, thistles and dandelions within relatively improved pasture. Some very rare species were encountered, notably the bee Halictus eurygnathus Blüthgen which had not been seen in Britain since 1946. This was eventually recorded at seven sites and was associated with an abundance of Greater Knapweed. The very rare bees Anthophora retusa (Linnaeus) and Andrena niveata Friese were also observed foraging on several dates during their flight periods, providing a better insight into their ecology and conservation requirements. -

Shropshire-Entomology-Issue-8.Pdf
Shropshire Entomology – April 2013 (No.7) A bi-annual newsletter focussing upon the study of insects and other invertebrates in the county of Shropshire (V.C. 40) March 2014 (Vol. 8) Editor: Pete Boardman [email protected] ~ Welcome ~ Welcome to the 8th edition of the Shropshire Entomology newsletter. As ever I hope you enjoy it and it inspires you to submit your own articles relating to any aspect of entomology relevant to Shropshire or Shropshire entomologists. It is sometime since we published the last edition but hopefully there will be the same appetite for entomological news as ever. In the last newsletter we detailed a number of new County Recorders and within this edition are some of the fruits of their labours from 2013, which I feel are particularly valuable. Edition 9 will be due at the beginning of October with the cut off date for contributions being Friday 19th September. Hopefully the summer will bring plenty of entomological experiences that can be shared amongst Shropshire’s entomologists whether they are accounts of new species or just interesting sightings, all are welcomed. If anyone would like to catalogue all of the articles in this and the previous 7 newsletters as a volunteer activity I’d be pleased to hear from you.

The Bees and Wasps of Marsland Nature Reserve
The Bees and Wasps of Marsland Nature Reserve Mason wasp Invertebrate survey and habitat evaluation Patrick Saunders [email protected] http://kernowecology.co.uk 1 Introduction This document consists of habitat evaluation and management recommendations for Bees and Wasps (Aculeate hymenoptera) for the Devon Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve Marsland mouth. The survey and report was commissioned by DWT Reserve warden. Marsland Nature reserve description (Pilkington & Threlkeld 2012) • The reserve comprises 212 hectares, of which 186 hectares occurs in the Marsland Valley and 26 hectares in the Welcombe Valley. The site was designated a SSSI in 1952. In addition the reserve includes an unknown acreage of foreshore north of Welcombe Mouth for 4 kilometres, extending beyond South Hole Farm (SS219201). The boundary of the reserve is approximately 18 miles long and is very complex, mainly through following the seven separate tributary streams. The reserve is freehold owned by Devon Wildlife Trust • The primary interest of the reserve is as an example of a north Devon/Cornwall coombe valley with a variety of slopes, soil types and aspects and coastal area that gives rise to a similar diversity of habitats. The most important of these are the extensive areas of relatively pure oak woodland and oak coppice, the maritime grassland and grass heath and the alder woodland and wet flushes in the valley bottoms. • There is approximately 36h of grassland, 130h of woodland, 43h of coastal habitat and 1h of open water. • The reserve also lies within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with the Marsland Valley being highly representative of an unspoilt coastal coombe habitat. -

I can guarantee that most, probably all, organisms on the list are a product of symbiosis.” Angela E. Douglas 4 Acknowledgements It has been a while already since I left home to study biology in Oviedo. I always thought I would come back home after College, but life turned my plans upside down giving me the opportunity to do my degree’s last year abroad. Now that I have finished my master in Germany, I would like to thank the people that have helped me through these last years. I would first like to thank Prf. Dr. Thomas Hoffmeister, who gave me the opportunity to continue my studies in Ecology in University of Bremen, which ultimately opened for me the doors of science. I am extremely thankful to my supervisor Dr. Martin Kaltenpoth, for teaching me everything I know about insect symbiosis. Thank you for making of the lab such a nice atmosphere, for encouraging us to develop as critical scientists and to provide us with all the resources (technical but also personal) we need to do our best. I would also like to thank Dr. Oliver Niehuis, Thomas Schmitt and Mareike Wurdack for providing some of the samples I have used in this project and Dr. -
First Records of Chrysis Splendidula Rossi, 1790 (Hymenoptera: Chrysididae), and Other Corrections of the Cuckoo Wasp Check-List of Lithuanian Fauna
124 BULLETIN OF THE LITHUANIAN ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY. Volume 3 (31) FIRST RECORDS OF CHRYSIS SPLENDIDULA ROSSI, 1790 (HYMENOPTERA: CHRYSIDIDAE), AND OTHER CORRECTIONS OF THE CUCKOO WASP CHECK-LIST OF LITHUANIAN FAUNA SVETLANA ORLOVSKYTĖ, EDUARDAS BUDRYS Nature Research Centre, Akademijos 2, LT-08412 Vilnius, Lithuania. E-mail: [email protected] Introduction Chrysis splendidula Rossi, 1790 (Hymenoptera: Chrysididae) is a cleptoparasitic cuckoo wasp widespread in the Palearctic region ranging from Europe and North Africa to Southeast Asia (Linsenmaier, 1959, 1997; Курзенко, Лелей, 2007). It has been recorded in neighbouring countries, such as Latvia (Paukkunen et al., 2014), Belarus, Poland (Wiśniowski, 2015), while the presence of this species in Lithuania has not yet been confirmed. Moreover, some other corrections must be made in the Lithuanian check-list of chrysidids (Orlovskytė et al., 2010) due to a new species description, misidentifications, and a revised taxonomic status of some species. The aim of this publication is to present new records of this cuckoo wasp species and to adjust the Chrysididae species check-list of Lithuania. Material and Methods The material was collected during field research using entomological net and yellow pan traps by E. Budrys (abbreviated as E.B.) and S. Orlovskytė (S.O.). It was identified according to W. Linsenmaier (1997), J. Paukkunen et al. (2015) and deposited in the Nature Research Centre (Vilnius, Lithuania). Total genomic DNA of the specimen from Užuožerės Miškas f. was extracted following the "GeneJet Genome Purification Kit" (Thermo Fisher Scientific) protocol. The 675 bp long fragment of the CO1-5' gene, widely used as a "barcoding" sequence (Hebert et al., 2003), was amplified with modified primers T3HYMlep-f (5'- attaaccctcactaaagtcwachaaycayaaaratatygg-3') and T7HYMnancy-r (5'- aatacgactcactataggdaraattaraatrtaaacytcwg-3') (Budrys et al., 2019). -
