Bean Life Science Museum Brigham Young University Provo, Utah 84602 Peter Zwick Limnologische Flußstation Max-Planck-Institut für Limnologie, Postfach 260, D-6407, Schlitz, West Germany EDITORIAL ASSISTANT: Bonnie Snow REPORT 3rd N orth A merican Stonefly S ymposium Boris Kondratieff hosted an enthusiastic group of plecopterologists in Fort Collins, Colorado during May 17-19, 1991. More than 30 papers and posters were presented and much fruitful discussion occurred. An enjoyable field trip to the Colorado Rockies took place on Sunday, May 19th, and the weather was excellent. Boris was such a good host that it was difficult to leave, but many participants traveled to Santa Fe, New Mexico to attend the annual meetings of the North American Benthological Society. Bill Stark gave us a way to remember this meeting by producing a T-shirt with a unique “Spirit Fly” design. ANNOUNCEMENT 11th International Stonefly Symposium Stan Szczytko has planned and organized an excellent symposium that will be held at the Tree Haven Biological Station, University of Wisconsin in Tomahawk, Wisconsin, USA. The registration cost of $300 includes lodging, meals, field trip and a T- Shirt. This is a real bargain so hopefully many colleagues and friends will come and participate in the symposium August 17-20, 1992. Stan has promised good weather and good friends even though he will not guarantee that stonefly adults will be collected during the field trip. Printed August 1992 1 OBITUARIES RODNEY L. -

September 1998 Die Weinzygaene Theresimima ampellophaga (BAYLE-BARELLE 1808) (Lepidoptera, Zygaenidae, Procridinae) Kehrt ein verschwundener Weinschädling zurück?* Gerhard M. TARMANN Abstract: The Vine Bud Moth or European Grapeleaf Skeletonizer Theresimima ampellophaga (BAYLE-BARELLE 1808) - reappearence of a vine pest? The Vine Bud Moth or European Grapleaf Skeletonizer Theresimima ampellophaga (BAYLE- BARELLE 1808) was thought to be under control for many years. The last harmful infestations are recorded from Hungary in 1954 (ISSEKUTZ 1957a, 1957b). Only a few records are known from later years. A possible reason for the decline of populations may be found in more effective use of pesticide and insecticide. In 1990 Th. ampellophaga was rediscovered on Crimea (Ukraine) after almost 50 years of absence (EFETOV 1990b). For the first time the larvae were found on decorative vines (Parthenocissus). Between 1990 and 1997 the Vine Bud Moth spread all over southern Crimea and has developed very strong populations. This fact leads to the conclusion that neighbouring countries might be in immediate danger. The present paper gives an overview about historical and recent observations of Th. ampellophaga with special emphasis to the situation on Crimea. Pheromone recognition and pest control methods are mentioned. The systematic position and the historical and recent geographical distributions are discussed. -

В обзоре проанализированы данные о химическом составе и строении известных половых феромонов и аттрактантов Zygaenidae (Insecta, Lepidoptera). Предприняты попытки проследить возможные пути эволюции аттрактивных молекул Zygaenidae и выявить особенности структуры, определяющие их био- логическую активность. В настоящее время строение феромонов и аттрактантов известно для двух из пяти подсемейств. У Zygaeninae аттрактивной способностью обладают сложные эфиры уксусной кис- лоты и жирных спиртов, у Procridinae – сложные эфиры втор-бутилового спирта и жирных кислот. Уг- леводородные радикалы жирных спиртов и кислот известных аттрактивных молекул Zygaenidae содер- жат четное количество атомов углерода (12, 14, 16) и, как правило, одну двойную связь. Видоспецифич- ность химического сигнала определяется не только качественным составом, но и количественным соотношением компонентов феромонной/аттрактантной композиции.

Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Lamiinae) with Description of a Species with Non‑Retractile Parameres
ARTICLE Two new genera of Desmiphorini (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Lamiinae) with description of a species with non‑retractile parameres Francisco Eriberto de Lima Nascimento¹² & Antonio Santos-Silva¹³ ¹ Universidade de São Paulo (USP), Museu de Zoologia (MZUSP).

In this study, two new genera of Desmiphorini (Lamiinae) are proposed: Cleidaria gen. nov., to include Cleidaria cleidae sp. nov. from the state of Chiapas in Mexico, and Obscenoides gen. nov. for Desmiphora (D.) compta Martins & Galileo, 2005. The shape of tarsal claws of Cleidaria cleidae sp. nov. (abruptly narrowed from basal half) is so far, not found in any current genera of the tribe. With respect to Obscenoides compta (Martins & Galileo, 2005) comb. nov., the genitalia of males have an unusual shape with non-retractile parameres. The character combination related to this genital structure is unknown to us in other species in the family, and hypotheses about its function are suggested. Key-Words. Genital morphology; Longhorned beetles; New taxa; Taxonomy. INTRODUCTION the current definitions of some tribes, especially based on the works of Breuning do not take into Lamiinae (Cerambycidae), also known as flat- account adaptive convergences and use superfi- faced longhorns, with more than 21,000 described cial characters to subordinate taxa. species in about 3,000 genera and 87 tribes is Among these tribes, Desmiphorini Thomson, the largest subfamily of Cerambycidae occurring 1860 is not an exception, and its “boundaries” are worldwide (Tavakilian & Chevillotte, 2019). -

Current address: 8920 South Bryerly Ct., Hereford, AZ 85615, U.S.A. ABSTRACT This article presents both ethnoentomological notes on Nahuatl and Mixtec language terms as they are applied to Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) and distributional records for species collected during three projects carried out in the states of Guerrero and Puebla, Mexico. Some comparative data from other Mesoamerican and Native American languages are discussed. Indigenous common names are mapped onto current taxonomic nomenclature, and an analysis is offered of the logical basis for Indigenous classification: the exclusion of some cerambycids and the inclusion of other beetles in the nominal native “cerambycid” category. New state distributional records for the Cerambycidae collected in this study are offered for Guerrero: Bebelis picta Pascoe, Callipogon senex Dupont, Neocompsa macrotricha Martins, Olenosus ser- rimanus Bates, Ornithia mexicana zapotensis Tippmann, Stenygra histrio Audinet-Serville, Strongylaspis championi Bates, Lissonotus flavocinctus puncticollis Bates, and Nothopleurus lobigenis Bates; and Puebla: Juiaparus mexicanus (Thomson), Ptychodes guttulatus Dillon and Dillon, and Steirastoma senex White. Key Words: linguistics, etymology, Nahuatl, Mixtec, longhorned beetle, wood-borer DOI.org/10.1649/0010-065X-71.2.301 The present article emerges from two language shapes.
