Taksonomija i biogeografija Taksonomija je biološka disciplina koja se bavi smještajem organizama u prirodni sistem (Mayr 1963). Biološke discipline usko povezane s taksonomijom su nomenklatura i klasifikacija. Moglo bi se reći da se taksonomija sastoji od klasifikacije zajedno sa nomenklaturom (Mayr 1963). Taksonomija definira osnovne biološke, tj. taksonomske grupe - vrstu, rod, porodicu, red, razred i koljeno. Podvrsta, vrsta i kompleks vrsta najniže su biološke kategorije i smatraju se osnovnim biološkim kategorijama (Dobzhansky 1970). Vrstu je lakše opisati ili prepoznati nego definirati pa danas ne postoji zadovoljavajuća definicija taksonomije koja bi pokrila sve postojeće fenomene u prirodi (Darwin 1859). Srodne vrste ujedinjuju u rodove, srodni rodovi ujedinjuju se u porodice, a srodne porodice u redove. Najviše taksonomske kategorije su razred i koljeno. Taksonomske kategorije praktične su jer olakšavaju razumijevanje i komunikaciju među znanstvenicima, te omogućavaju da klasifikacijski sistem odražava prirodni, evolucijski sistem (Darwin 1859, Hennig 1965). Nomenklatura je biološka disciplina koja se bavi imenovanjem živih bića. Nomenklatura daje stroge zakone za opis novih vrsta, novih rodova ili viših svojti, kao i za ukidanje svojti koje nisu dobro opisane (ICZN 1999). Slika 1.1. Osnovne svjetske biogeografske regije – afrotropska, australska, malagaska, nearktička, neotropska, oceanijska, orijentalna, palearktička, panamska, saharo-arapska i sino-japanska.

Biogeografija je biološka disciplina koja proučava obrasce rasprostranjenosti živih bića (Mayr 1963, Lomolino 2006). Biogeografija je povezana s taksonomijom, ekologijom i paleogeografijom. Većina životinjskih vrsta nastanjuje ograničena područja, a manji dio su 1 kozmopoliti (Lomolino 2006, Wiens & Donoghue 2004). Biogeografija definira biogeografska carstva, najveće biogeografske regije, i sve njima pripadajuće manje podregije (Holt 2013). Holarktička regija je najveća biogeografska regija sastavljena od palearktičke (Europa, Azija i prema nekim klasifikacijama sjever Afrike) i nearktičke regije (sjeverna Amerika) (Holt 2013). Biogeografske regije ne prate podjelu na kontinente (Slika 1.1.). Neki se kontinenti (primjerice Azija i Afrika) sastoje od više biogeografskih regija. U našem radu ne sagledavamo biogeografiju Antarktike jer je to jedini kontinent kojeg monaški skakavci, a i većina druge faune, ne nastanjuju (Tumbrinck 2014). 1.1.1. Povijest i metode taksonomije Zakone moderne taksonomije uspostavio je švedski liječnik i prirodoslovac Carl von Linne (Linnaeus 1758). Linnaeus je definirao binarnu nomenklaturu - dogovorno pravilo da se svaka vrsta označava latinskim binomenom - imenom roda i vrste u kurzivu (Slika 1.1.1.). Binarna nomenklatura poslužila je Darwinu (1859), Wallaceu (1858) i drugim znanstvenicima da uspostave načela moderne taksonomije i klasifikacije. Primjerice, već dugo traje, rasprava o tome što je vrsta, praktički od Cuviera, Johna Raya i drugih prirodoslovaca koji su djelovali prije taksonomije (Mayr 1996). Taksonomija se danas unificira postojanjem tipskog primjerka. Tipski je primjerak onaj primjerak o kojem se prvi put opisuje vrsta i koji služi da se na njemu odrede mjerodavne razlike jedne vrste od druge (ICZN 1999). U moderno doba postoji jedan relevantni tipski primjerak koji se naziva holotip. Drugi primjerci koji se koriste kod opisa vrste nazivaju se paratip. Lokalitet na kojem je ulovljen holotip naziva se tipski lokalitet. Nekada nisu postojali holotip i paratipovi, nego je svaka vrsta opisivana s mnogo primjeraka. Ti povijesni primjerci danas se nazivaju sintipovi (ICZN 1999). Nekada se zna dogoditi da se pronađe da u seriji sintipova ima više vrsta i onda je potrebno označiti jedan primjerak koji će biti mjerodavan o kojoj se vrsti radi. Taj tipski primjerak ovaj se put ne naziva holotip nego lektotip. Ostali primjerci u tom slučaju nazivaju se paralektotipovi (ICZN 1999). Važno je slijediti Kodeks zoološke nomenklature i razumjeti to znači tipski primjerak i kako se pravilno opisuje vrsta. Postoje kontroverze oko opisa vrste samo sa slike (Marschall & Evenhuis 2015, Amorim et al. 2016, ra Ofertas 2017). Takav slučaj dogodio se prije nekoliko godina (Marschall & Evenhuis 2015) i dosta je iskritiziran u znanstvenoj zajednici (Löbl et al. 2016). 2 Slika 1.1.1. Carl Linné (A) kao tridesetogodišnjak u laponskoj narodnoj nošnji nakon povratka s ekspedicije (Henry Kingsbury (Mezzotinto, 1807. ili ranije) doradio nakon Martina Hoffmana (Gemälde, Hartecamp 1737.)) i naslovnica njegovog kapitalnog djela (B) Systema Naturae per regna tria naturae, secundum classes, ordines, genera, species cum characteribus, diferenttis, synonymis, locis.

Biogeografija nekad i danas Biogeografija se nekada radila najprije detaljnom inventarizacijom vrsta nekog područja i određivanja njihove abundancije (frekvencije) terenskim radom (Slika 1.1.2.). Nakon terenskog rada, slijedilo je ručno uspoređivanje sličnosti područja (Darwin & Wallace 1858, Wallace 1858, Wallace 1876a, 1876b ). Sličnosti su se određivale fenetičkim metodama poput Neighbor Joining (NJ) metode koja određuje sličnosti među grupama i spaja ih na taj način (Sneath & Sokal 1973). Danas se biogeografija temelji na kompjuterskim metodama i metapodatcima. Za razliku od nekadašnjih putovanja i skupljanja materijala, danas postoje bioinformatičke biogeografske metode (Holt 2013). Na temelju današnjih kladističkih metoda definirane su moderne biogeografske regije. Lokalna biogeografija i danas se bazira na terenskom radu i sakupljanju podataka kako bi se procjenila raznolikost nekog područja (Holt 2013). Razumijevanje biogeografije važno je i za zaštita vrstu.

  • Mitochondrial Genomes of Three Tetrigoidea Species and Phylogeny of Tetrigoidea
    Mitochondrial genomes of three Tetrigoidea species and phylogeny of Tetrigoidea Li-Liang Lin1, Xue-Juan Li1, Hong-Li Zhang2 and Zhe-Min Zheng1 1 College of Life Sciences, Shaanxi Normal University, Xi'an, Shaanxi, China 2 School of Life Sciences, Datong University, Datong, Shanxi, China ABSTRACT The mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of Formosatettix qinlingensis, Coptotettix longjiangensis and Thoradonta obtusilobata (Orthoptera: Caelifera: Tetrigoidea) were sequenced in this study, and almost the entire mitogenomes of these species were determined. The mitogenome sequences obtained for the three species were 15,180, 14,495 and 14,538 bp in length, respectively, and each sequence included 13 protein- coding genes (PCGs), partial sequences of rRNA genes (rRNAs), tRNA genes (tRNAs) and a A C T-rich region. The order and orientation of the gene arrangement pattern were identical to that of most Tetrigoidea species. Some conserved spacer sequences between trnS(UCN) and nad1 were useful to identify Tetrigoidea and Acridoidea. The Ka/Ks value of atp8 between Trachytettix bufo and other four Tetrigoidea species indicated that some varied sites in this gene might be related with the evolution of T. bufo. The three Tetrigoidea species were compared with other Caelifera. At the superfamily level, conserved sequences were observed in intergenic spacers, which can be used for superfamily level identification between Tetrigoidea and Acridoidea. Furthermore, a phylogenomic analysis was conducted based on the concatenated data sets from mitogenome sequences of 24 species of Orthoptera in the superorders Caelifera and Ensifera. Both maximum likelihood and bayesian inference analyses strongly supported Acridoidea and Tetrigoidea as forming monophyletic groups. The relationships among six Tetrigoidea species were (((((Tetrix japonica, Alulatettix Submitted 9 May 2017 yunnanensis), Formosatettix qinlingensis), Coptotettix longjiangensis), Trachytettix bufo), Accepted 17 October 2017 Thoradonta obtusilobata).

  • New Species Described from Photographs: Yes? No? Sometimes? a Fierce Debate and a New Declaration of the ICZN

We here provide a historical perspective on this practice from both nomenclatural and practical points of view, culminating in a summary and discussion of a new Declaration of the International Commission of Zoological Nomenclature containing recommendations about descriptions without preserved specimens. We conclude that although descriptions using photographs as proxy types are Code-compliant and occasionally justified, the conditions under which such descriptions are justified are likely to remain relatively rare. Increasing restrictions on specimen collecting, which we deplore because of the centrality of collecting and collections to all of biodiversity science, could lead to more ‘proxy type’ descriptions in those taxa in which photographs can provide sufficient information for descriptions, but we predict that such cases will remain infrequent exceptions.

  • (Orthoptera) and Their Phylogenetic Implications Within Tetrigoidea
    Mitochondrial genomes of eight Scelimeninae species (Orthoptera) and their phylogenetic implications within Tetrigoidea Ran Li1, Xiaoli Ying1, Weian Deng2, Wantao Rong2 and Xiaodong Li2 1 College of Life Sciences, Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing, China 2 School of Chemistry and Bioengineering, Hechi University, Yizhou, China ABSTRACT Scelimeninae is a key member of the pygmy grasshopper community, and an important ecological indicator. No mitochondrial genomes of Scelimeninae have been reported to date, and the monophyly of Scelimeninae and its phylogenetic relationship within Tetrigidae is still unclear. We sequenced and analyzed eight nearly complete mitochondrial genomes representing eight genera of Scelimeninae. These mitogenomes ranged in size from 13,112 to 16,380 bp and the order of tRNA genes between COII and ATP8 was reversed compared with the ancestral order of insects. The protein-coding genes (PCGs) of tetrigid species mainly with the typical ATN codons and most terminated with complete (TAA or TAG) stop codons. Analyses of pairwise genetic distances showed that ATP8 was the least conserved gene within Tetrigidae, while COI was the most conserved. The longest intergenic spacer (IGS) region in the mitogenomes was always found between tRNASer(UCN) and ND1. Additionally, tandem repeat units were identified in the longest IGS of three mitogenomes. Maximum likelihood (ML) and Bayesian Inference (BI) analyses based on the two datasets supported the monophyly of Tetriginae. Scelimeninae was classified as a non-monophyletic subfamily.

  • Herpetofauna and Aquatic Macro-Invertebrate Use of the Kino Environmental Restoration Project (KERP)
    Herpetofauna and Aquatic Macro-invertebrate Use of the Kino Environmental Restoration Project (KERP) Tucson, Pima County, Arizona Prepared for Pima County Regional Flood Control District Prepared by EPG, Inc. JANUARY 2007 - Plma County Regional FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT MEMORANDUM Water Resources Regional Flood Control District DATE: January 5,2007 TO: Distribution FROM: Julia Fonseca SUBJECT: Kino Ecosystem Restoration Project Report The Ed Pastor Environmental Restoration ProjectiKino Ecosystem Restoration Project (KERP) is becoming an extraordinary urban wildlife resource. As such, the Pima County Regional Flood Control District (PCRFCD) contracted with the Environmental Planning Group (EPG) to gather observations of reptiles, amphibians, and aquatic insects at KERP. Water quality was also examined. The purpose of the work was to provide baseline data on current wildlife use of the KERP site, and to assess water quality for post-project aquatic wildlife conditions. I additionally requested sampling of macroinvertebrates at Agua Caliente Park and Sweetwater Wetlands in hopes that the differences in aquatic wildlife among the three sites might provide insights into the different habitats offered by KERF'. The results One of the most important wildlife benefits that KERP provides is aquatic habitat without predatory bullfrogs and non- native fish. Most other constructed ponds and wetlands in Tucson, such as the Sweetwater Wetlands and Agua Caliente pond, are fuIl of non-native predators which devastate native fish, amphibians and aquatic reptiles. The KERP Wetlands may provide an opportunity for reestablishing declining native herpetofauna. Provided that non- native fish, bullfrogs or crayfish are not introduced, KERP appears to provide adequate habitat for Sonoran Mud Turtles (Kinosternon sonoriense), Lowland Leopard Frogs (Rana yavapaiensis), and Mexican Gartersnakes (Tharnnophis eques) and Southwestern Woodhouse Toad (Bufo woodhousii australis).

In this commentary we pro- vide evidence that E. hardi is a nymph of E. harpago (Serville, 1838), hence a new synonymy is proposed: Euscelimena harpago (Serville, 1838) = Euscelimena hardi Gupta et Chandra, 2018 syn. nov. Since this is the fourth time a nymph of Euscelimena Günther, 1938 has been described as a new species, we present general remarks on how to distinguish pygmy grasshopper nymphs and adults.

[Orthoptera from Northwestern Amazonia: state of knowledge and open problems]. Abstract: The present state of knowledge of the Orthoptera from amazonian Ecuador is outlined: long-horned grasshoppers (Gryllidae and Tettigoniidae) have not been collected systematically, while short-horned grasshoppers (Acridoidea) have been sampled reasonably well. Some results on the bioacoustic diversity of singing long-horned grasshoppers are presented. Systematic, ethological and biogeographical data for the different subfamilies of short-horned grasshoppers are reviewed, current research projects scetched and open problems for future research are outlined. It is hypothesized that mountain forests at the eastern andean slopes are "present-day refuges" for a species-rich fauna of forest grasshoppers undergoing actual speciation. Resumen: Se bosqueja el estado actual del conocimiento de los ortópteros de la región amazónica del Ecuador: saltamontes y grillos (Gryllidae y Tettigoniidae) no han sido recolectados sistemáticamente, mientras que los acrídidos (Acridoidea) han sido bastante bien relevados. Se presentan algunos resultados de la diversidad bioacústica de los saltamontes y grillos cantores. Se presentan informaciones sistemáticas, etológicas y biogeográficas de las diferentes subfamilias de acrídidos, se bosquejan los proyectos de investigación actual y se delinean los problemas aún abiertos para investigaciones futuras. Se proporciona la hipótesis de que las montañas selváticas de las vertientes orientales andinas son refugios actuales para una fauna rica en especies de saltamontes selváticos que se hallan en un proceso de actual especialización.

E-mail. [email protected] Abstract. Phylogenetic relationships among the winged orders of Polyneoptera (Blattodea, Dermaptera, Embiodea or Embioptera, Isoptera, Mantodea, Orthoptera, Phasmatodea, Plecoptera, Zoraptera) were estimated based on morphological data selected from the hindwing base structure. Cladistic analyses were carried out using the hindwing base data alone and in combination with other, more general, morphological data. Both data sets resulted in similar trees and recovered monophyly of Polyneoptera. Deepest phylogenetic relationships among the polyneopteran orders were not confidently estimated, but monophyly of Mystroptera (= Embiodea + Zoraptera), Orthopterida (= Orthoptera + Phasmatodea) and Dictyoptera (= Blattodea + Mantodea + Isoptera) was supported consistently. In contrast, placements of Plecoptera and Dermaptera were unstable, although independent analysis of the wing base data supported their sister group relationship with two non-homoplasious synapomorphies (unique conditions in the ventral basisubcostale and in the articulation between the antemedian notal wing process and first axillary sclerite).
