Para tanto, massas fecais com 1, 2 e 3 dias de idade foram coletadas semanalmente em uma pastagem de Brachiaria decumbens Stapf, no período de maio de 1990 a abril de 1992. As fezes foram acondicionadas em baldes plásticos, opacos, com capacidade para 15 litros, contendo aberturas lateral e no topo, onde foram fixados frascos para a captura, por um período de 40 dias, dos besouros estafilinídeos presentes nas massas fecais. Após este período a massa fecal e o solo existente nos baldes eram examinados e os insetos remanescentes recolhidos. Foi coletado um total de 13.215 exemplares, pertencendo a 34 espécies e/ou morfo espécies. Foram observados os seguintes doze gêneros: Oxytelus (3 espécies; 70,1%); Falagria (1 sp.; 7,9); Aleochara (4 sp.; 5,8); Philonthus (3 sp.; 5,1); Atheta (2 sp.; 4,0); Cilea (2 sp.; 1,2); Neohypnus (1 sp.; 0,7); Lithocharis (1 sp.; 0,7); Heterothops (2 sp.; 0,6); Somoleptus (1 sp.; 0,08); Dibelonetes (1 sp.; 0,06) e, Dysanellus (1 sp.; 0,04).

ZooKeys 46: 15–39. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.46.413 Abstract Since 1970, 203 species of Aleocharinae have been recorded in the Maritime Provinces of Canada, 174 of which have been reported in the past decade. Th is rapid growth of knowledge of this hitherto neglected subfamily of rove beetles occasions the present compilation of species recorded in the region together with the chronology of their discovery. Sixteen new provincial records are reported, twelve from Nova Scotia, one from New Brunswick, and three from Prince Edward Island. Seven species, including Oxypoda chantali Klimaszewski, Oxypoda perexilis Casey, Myllaena cuneata Notman, Placusa canadensis Klimasze- wski, Geostiba (Sibiota) appalachigena Gusarov, Lypoglossa angularis obtusa (LeConte), and Trichiusa postica Casey [tentative identifi cation] are newly recorded in the Maritime Provinces, one of which,Myllaena cuneata, is newly recorded in Canada.

Received: 3 May 2014; in revised form: 23 June 2014 / Accepted: 30 June 2014 / Published: 14 July 2014 Abstract: The conservation of biodiversity in intensively managed agricultural landscapes depends on the amount and spatial arrangement of cultivated and natural lands. Conservation incentives that create semi-natural grasslands may increase the biodiversity of beneficial insects and their associated ecosystem services, such as pollination and the regulation of insect pests, but the effectiveness of these incentives for insect conservation are poorly known, especially in North America. We studied the variation in species richness, composition, and functional-group abundances of bees and predatory beetles in conservation grasslands surrounded by intensively managed agriculture in Southwest Ohio, USA. Characteristics of grassland patches and surrounding land-cover types were used to predict insect species richness, composition, and functional-group abundance using linear models and multivariate ordinations. Bee species richness was positively influenced by forb cover and beetle richness was positively related to grass cover; both taxa had greater richness in grasslands surrounded by larger amounts of semi-natural land cover.

COCOON-SPINNING AND THE DEFENSIVE FUNCTION OF THE MEDIAN GLAND IN LARVAE OF ALEOCHARINAE (COLEOPTERA, STAPHYLINIDAE): A REVIEW J. H. Frank Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory 200 9th Street S.E. Vero Beach, Fl 32962 U.S.A. M. C. Thomas 4327 NW 30th Terrace Gainesville, Fl 32605 U.S.A. Quaestiones Entomologicae 20:7-23 1984 ABSTRACT Ability of a Leptusa prepupa to spin a silken cocoon was reported by Albert Fauvel in 1862. A median gland of abdominal segment VIII of a Leptusa larva was described in 1914 by Paul Brass who speculated that it might have a locomotory function, but more probably a defensive function. Knowledge was expanded in 1918 by Nils Alarik Kemner who found the gland in larvae of 12 aleocharine genera and contended it has a defensive function. He also suggested that cocoon-spinning may be a subfamilial characteristic of Aleocharinae and that the Malpighian tubules are the source of silk. Kemner's work has been largely overlooked and later authors attributed other functions to the gland. However, the literature yet contains no proof that Kemner was wrong even though some larvae lack the gland and even though circumstantial evidence points to another (perhaps peritrophic membrane) origin of the silk with clear evidence in some species that the Malpighian tubules are the source of a nitrogenous cement.

We studied the impact of low-density grazing on arthropod diversity in a small wetland (7 ha) in South Germany. The location was abandoned for 20 years, and was then grazed by Galloway for 4 to 5 years. The study site included the following habitat types: open land, a stand of alder (Alnus glutinosa), a stand of willows (Salix spec) and alder and a brookside. We counted higher species numbers on grazed than on neighbouring abandoned areas in ground beetles, rove beetles and spiders. Grazing explained a considerable amount of the variance of the species composition, and species typical for grazed plots could be identified. We found higher frequencies of insects during winter in Cirsium stems from grazed than from ungrazed areas. Grasshoppers and katydids (Saltatoria) of the grazed open land showed a general trend of increasing species number during the study period. Our findings show that low density grazing by cattle can favour habitat diversity even in small areas which enhances species numbers.

FERRO Clemson University Arthropod Collection Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences 277 Poole Agricultural Center, Clemson University Clemson, SC 29634-0310, USA [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT A review of the literature revealed 17 subfamilies and 355 species of rove beetles (Staphylinidae) reported from South Carolina. Updated nomenclature and references are provided for all species. The goal of this list is to set a baseline for improvement of our knowledge of the state’s staphylinid fauna, as well as to goad ourselves and others into creating new, or updating existing, regional faunal lists of the world’s most speciose beetle family.

Holland Department of Entomology Purdue University 901 West State Street West Lafayette, Indiana 47907 ABSTRACT Two-hundred and nine taxa (171 identified to species level), in 111 genera, of staphylinid beetles were documented during a 21-year field survey of a national park site (George Washington Memorial Parkway) that spans parts of Fairfax and Arlington counties in Virginia. Fifty-two species, plus five additional genera, documented from the Parkway are first records for Virginia. An additional 62 species new to Virginia are listed in the appendix from broader research documenting 792 species of Staphylinidae from Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. The study also increases the number of staphylinid species known from the Potomac River Gorge to 167. Of the seven capture methods used in the survey, Malaise traps were the most successful. Periods of adult activity, based on dates of capture, are given for each species. Relative abundance is noted for each species based on the number of captures. Notes on morphological characteristics and habitats are given for some species. Thirteen species adventive to North America are documented from the Parkway and 60 adventive species are recorded from Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia in the Appendix.
