Changes in vegetation structure can alter the physical habitat structure, thermal environment, and food available to arthropods, which play an important role in the structure and functioning of Arctic ecosystems. Not only do they provide key ecosystem services such as pollination and nutrient cycling, they are an essential food source for migratory birds. In this study I examined the relationships between the abundance, diversity, and community composition of arthropods and the height and cover of several shrub species across a tundra-shrub gradient in northwestern Alaska. To characterize nestling diet of common passerines that occupy this gradient, I used next-generation sequencing of fecal matter. Willow cover was strongly and consistently associated with abundance and biomass of arthropods and significant shifts in arthropod community composition and diversity. -

Some Thoughts on the History of North-Western Lycia in the Late Bronze and Iron Ages Summary: The present article contains observations on the invasion of Lycia by the Hittite king Tudhaliya IV as described in the Yalburt inscription. The author questions the commonly found identification of the land of VITIS/Wiyanwanda with the city of Oinoanda on account of the problems raised by the reading of the sign VITIS as well as of archaeological and strategical observations. With the aid of Lycian and Greek inscriptions the author argues that the original Wiya- nawanda/Oinoanda was located further south than the city commonly known as Oinoanda situated above İncealiler. These insights lead to a reassessment of the Hittite-Luwian sources concerning the conquest of Lycia. -

Sunuþ Çevreden Çýkarak arihsel çevre, doðal çevre, kentsel çevre olarak tanýmlanan ve yeni bir davranýþ Tkavramýný gündeme getiren çevre sözcüðü, evrenimizde insan oðlunun yerleþik düzene geçtiði Neolitik çaðdan bu yana bilinen bir sözcüktür. Zamanýmýzda ileri uygar- lýk düzeyini yakalamýþ zengin ülkeler, II. Dünya savaþýndan sonra çevre kavramýný çeþitli boyutlarý ile tartýþmýþlar ve gerekli koruyucu önlemlerini almýþlardýr. Ülkemizdeki Çevre kavramýna dönecek olursak, bu sözcüðün ve önüne gelen sýfatlarýn ancak çeyrek yüzyýllýk bir geçmiþi olduðunu görürüz. Bugün için çevre kavramýnýn içeriði hala çok kolay bir biçimde tarif edilir. Ancak tanýmýn ayrýntýsýna girildikçe, olayýn hiçte o kadar kolay açýklanamadýðý görülür. Biz arkeologlar için birinci derecede tarihsel çevre kavra- mý önem taþýr. Çünkü tarihsel çevremizin yaþamýmýzda bize vereceði dersleri, tercihleri ve davranýþ biçimlerimizi akýlcý bir yöntemle belirlememize olanak verir. Bu oluþumda dikkat edilecek olan ilkler arasýnda somut ve soyut kültür varlýklarýmýzý en iyi bir biçimde koruma bilincinin küçük yaþlardan itibaren toplumumuza verilmesi, saðlýklý bilgilerle uluslarýn kendi özgün kültürleri olabileceðini ve bunlar içinde korunmasý gerekli olan taþýnýr ve taþýnmaz kültür varlýklarýnýn da olabileceðini komplekslerden arýnarak öðret- memiz, bir yurttaþlýk görevi olmalýdýr. Bu öðreti o ülkenin kültürel yaþam kalitesini ortaya koymada en büyük etmendir. Kültürel yaþamýn oluþmasýnda geçmiþin ne denli önemli olduðunu görmemek bizce onarýlmasý olanaksýz bir yanýlgýdýr. Ülkemizde son çeyrek yüzyýlda geniþ halk kitlelerince kabul gören bu yeni taným, geçmiþimizin geleceðe ne kadar etkin olduðunu az da olsa öðretme becerisini yakalayabilmiþtir. Ancak Türkiye'nin plansýz ve ileriye dönük kurgularýnýn yapýlmaksýzýn baþlatýlan sanayileþme dönemi, kültürel varlýklarýmýzýn bilinçsizce kýyýmýna sebep olabilmiþtir. Son günlerde (Aralýk 2001 ve Ocak 2002) ülkemiz medyasýnda ve TBMM. genel kurulunda tartýþýlan bir konu ile "Tarihsel Çevre" Türkiye gündemine oturmuþtur. -

Calculation of Minnesota Macroinvertebrate IBIs- Draft January 26, 2017 Introduction The Index of Biotic Integrity (IBI) is one of the primary tools used by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) to determine if streams are meeting their aquatic life use goals. Calculation of an IBI involves the synthesis of macroinvertebrate community information into a numerical expression of stream health. In order to apply the MPCA Macroinvertebrate IBI (MIBI) to a macroinvertebrate dataset, it is essential that all data is collected using MPCA field and laboratory protocols (MPCA 2004, MPCA 2015). This document details the process for calculating the Minnesota MIBIs from raw macroinvertebrate samples. Summary of MIBI development To account for natural differences in macroinvertebrates communities in Minnesota, streams are assigned to different stream types. These stream types use different MIBI models and biocriteria to determine the condition of the macroinvertebrate assemblage and their attainment or nonattainment of the aqutic life beneficial use. The MPCA stratified Minnesota streams into nine macroinvertebrate stream types based on the expected natural composition of stream macroinvertebrates (Table 1). Stream type is differentiated by drainage area, geographic region, thermal regime, and gradient. These stream types are used to determine thresholds (i.e., biocriteria) that interpret the calculated MIBI as meeting or exceeding the aquatic life use goal. MIBIs were developed from five individual invertebrate stream groups, with large rivers, wadable high gradient and wabable low gradient stream types each being combined for the purposes of metric testing and evaluation. A complete description of the development of MIBIs can be found in MPCA (2014). -

Abstract We analyzed the feasibility of using DNA-barcoding as a tool to achieve a correct and rapid association between different life stages of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera insects in high Andean streams from La Paz, Bolivia. We focused on this particular environment because the water of streams from the glaciers is becoming scarce, and this could create a risk of local disappearance of these aquatic species. Using cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) gene sequences, we found high genetic interspecific divergence between specimens from different families and genera (maximum 20%), whereas the intraspecific genetic divergences were lower between specimens of the same species (ranged from 0.1-2%). In this manner, we associate the larval or nymphal instar with their respective adults (female and male), for one species of mayfly (Meridialaris tintinnabula Pescador & Peters, 1987), three species of stoneflies (Anacroneuria vagante Stark & Baumann, 2011, Claudioperla tigrina Klapálek, 1904 and C. -

Chironominae 8.1
CHIRONOMINAE 8.1 SUBFAMILY CHIRONOMINAE 8 DIAGNOSIS: Antennae 4-8 segmented, rarely reduced. Labrum with S I simple, palmate or plumose; S II simple, apically fringed or plumose; S III simple; S IV normal or sometimes on pedicel. Labral lamellae usually well developed, but reduced or absent in some taxa. Mentum usually with 8-16 well sclerotized teeth; sometimes central teeth or entire mentum pale or poorly sclerotized; rarely teeth fewer than 8 or modified as seta-like projections. Ventromental plates well developed and usually striate, but striae reduced or vestigial in some taxa; beard absent. Prementum without dense brushes of setae. Body usually with anterior and posterior parapods and procerci well developed; setal fringe not present, but sometimes with bifurcate pectinate setae. Penultimate segment sometimes with 1-2 pairs of ventral tubules; antepenultimate segment sometimes with lateral tubules. Anal tubules usually present, reduced in brackish water and marine taxa. NOTESTES: Usually the most abundant subfamily (in terms of individuals and taxa) found on the Coastal Plain of the Southeast. Found in fresh, brackish and salt water (at least one truly marine genus). Most larvae build silken tubes in or on substrate; some mine in plants, dead wood or sediments; some are free- living; some build transportable cases. Many larvae feed by spinning silk catch-nets, allowing them to fill with detritus, etc., and then ingesting the net; some taxa are grazers; some are predacious. Larvae of several taxa (especially Chironomus) have haemoglobin that gives them a red color and the ability to live in low oxygen conditions. With only one exception (Skutzia), at the generic level the larvae of all described (as adults) southeastern Chironominae are known. -

In: Kahanpää J, Salmela J (Eds) Checklist of the Diptera of Finland. ZooKeys 441: 63–90. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.441.7461 Abstract A checklist of the family Chironomidae (Diptera) recorded from Finland is presented. Keywords Finland, Chironomidae, species list, biodiversity, faunistics Introduction There are supposedly at least 15 000 species of chironomid midges in the world (Armitage et al. 1995, but see Pape et al. 2011) making it the largest family among the aquatic insects. The European chironomid fauna consists of 1262 species (Sæther and Spies 2013). In Finland, 780 species can be found, of which 37 are still undescribed (Paasivirta 2012). The species checklist written by B. Lindeberg on 23.10.1979 (Hackman 1980) included 409 chironomid species. Twenty of those species have been removed from the checklist due to various reasons. The total number of species increased in the 1980s to 570, mainly due to the identification work by me and J. Tuiskunen (Bergman and Jansson 1983, Tuiskunen and Lindeberg 1986).
