The impact of climate change on biological phenology in the UK Tim Sparks1 & Humphrey Crick2 1 Faculty of Engineering and Computing, Coventry University, Priory Street, Coventry, CV1 5FB 2 Natural England, Eastbrook, Shaftesbury Road, Cambridge, CB2 8DR Email: [email protected]; [email protected] 1 Sparks Pheno logy Biodiversity Report Card paper 12 2015 Executive summary Phenology can be described as the study of the timing of recurring natural events. The UK has a long history of phenological recording, particularly of first and last dates, but systematic national recording schemes are able to provide information on the distributions of events. The majority of data concern spring phenology, autumn phenology is relatively under-recorded. The UK is not usually water-limited in spring and therefore the major driver of the timing of life cycles (phenology) in the UK is temperature [H]. Phenological responses to temperature vary between species [H] but climate change remains the major driver of changed phenology [M]. For some species, other factors may also be important, such as soil biota, nutrients and daylength [M]. Wherever data is collected the majority of evidence suggests that spring events have advanced [H]. Thus, data show advances in the timing of bird spring migration [H], short distance migrants responding more than long-distance migrants [H], of egg laying in birds [H], in the flowering and leafing of plants[H] (although annual species may be more responsive than perennial species [L]), in the emergence dates of various invertebrates (butterflies [H], moths [M], aphids [H], dragonflies [M], hoverflies [L], carabid beetles [M]), in the migration [M] and breeding [M] of amphibians, in the fruiting of spring fungi [M], in freshwater fish migration [L] and spawning [L], in freshwater plankton [M], in the breeding activity among ruminant mammals [L] and the questing behaviour of ticks [L].

  • Hoverfly Newsletter No
    Dipterists Forum Hoverfly Newsletter Number 48 Spring 2010 ISSN 1358-5029 I am grateful to everyone who submitted articles and photographs for this issue in a timely manner. The closing date more or less coincided with the publication of the second volume of the new Swedish hoverfly book. Nigel Jones, who had already submitted his review of volume 1, rapidly provided a further one for the second volume. In order to avoid delay I have kept the reviews separate rather than attempting to merge them. Articles and illustrations (including colour images) for the next newsletter are always welcome. Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 49 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2010 Dipterists Forum Bulletin) should be sent to me: David Iliff Green Willows, Station Road, Woodmancote, Cheltenham, Glos, GL52 9HN, (telephone 01242 674398), email:[email protected], to reach me by 20 May 2010. Please note the earlier than usual date which has been changed to fit in with the new bulletin closing dates. although we have not been able to attain the levels Hoverfly Recording Scheme reached in the 1980s. update December 2009 There have been a few notable changes as some of the old Stuart Ball guard such as Eileen Thorpe and Austin Brackenbury 255 Eastfield Road, Peterborough, PE1 4BH, [email protected] have reduced their activity and a number of newcomers Roger Morris have arrived. For example, there is now much more active 7 Vine Street, Stamford, Lincolnshire, PE9 1QE, recording in Shropshire (Nigel Jones), Northamptonshire [email protected] (John Showers), Worcestershire (Harry Green et al.) and This has been quite a remarkable year for a variety of Bedfordshire (John O’Sullivan).

  • Hoverfly Newsletter 67
    Dipterists Forum Hoverfly Newsletter Number 67 Spring 2020 ISSN 1358-5029 . On 21 January 2020 I shall be attending a lecture at the University of Gloucester by Adam Hart entitled “The Insect Apocalypse” the subject of which will of course be one that matters to all of us. Spreading awareness of the jeopardy that insects are now facing can only be a good thing, as is the excellent number of articles that, despite this situation, readers have submitted for inclusion in this newsletter. The editorial of Hoverfly Newsletter No. 66 covered two subjects that are followed up in the current issue. One of these was the diminishing UK participation in the international Syrphidae symposia in recent years, but I am pleased to say that Jon Heal, who attended the most recent one, has addressed this matter below. Also the publication of two new illustrated hoverfly guides, from the Netherlands and Canada, were announced. Both are reviewed by Roger Morris in this newsletter. The Dutch book has already proved its value in my local area, by providing the confirmation that we now have Xanthogramma stackelbergi in Gloucestershire (taken at Pope’s Hill in June by John Phillips). Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 68 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2020 Dipterists Forum Bulletin) should be sent to me: David Iliff, Green Willows, Station Road, Woodmancote, Cheltenham, Glos, GL52 9HN, (telephone 01242 674398), email:[email protected], to reach me by 20 June 2020. The hoverfly illustrated at the top right of this page is a male Leucozona laternaria.

Larvae have been recorded on Douglas-fir, fir, juniper, larch, pine (lodgepole pine, Scots pine), and spruce. Early instar larvae feed inside the needles of new growth and later instars feed on older foliage. Outbreaks of P. flammea in pine plantations in the United Kingdom and Continental Europe have caused damage to thousands of acres and resulted in significant tree mortality. In the UK, adults are present from March through May. Twenty to eighty year old pine monocultures are especially at risk, and lodgepole pine, common in the western U.S., has been attacked when planted in Scotland (see Bradshaw et al. 1983; Sukovata et al. 2003). Panolis flammea is a member of the Noctuidae (tribe Hadenini), the family of moths (Lepidoptera) with the largest number of total species and also the most pest species.

  • Field Identification Guide Pine Processionary Moth
    Field Identification Guide Pine processionary moth Photograph: Mat Holloway, Observatree volunteer Observatree Holloway, Mat Photograph: Funded by the EU’s LIFE programme Pine processionary moth The caterpillars (larvae) of the pine processionary moth (PPM) (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) can threaten the health of pine trees (Pinus species) by feeding on their needles. Large populations cause extensive defoliation of pine trees, leaving them vulnerable to attack by other pests and diseases, and less able to withstand adverse environmental events such as floods and droughts. Timber production and tree growth can be reduced as a result of attack. The caterpillars are also a significant public and animal health risk, as they bear toxic hairs which can cause itching skin rashes, eye and throat irritation and breathing problems. Hence it is important not to approach or touch the caterpillars, or their nests. Species affected The main hosts for PPM are pine trees with our native Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and the widely planted Corsican pine (P. nigra ssp. laricio) being at the greatest risk from this pest in the UK. Other species that are susceptible include the Aleppo pine (P. halepensis), Austrian pine (P. nigra), Canary Island pine (P. canariensis), lodgepole pine (P. contorta), maritime pine (P. pinaster), Monterey pine (P. radiata) and stone pine (P. pinea). The Atlas cedar (Cedrus atlantica) and European larch (Larix decidua) are also occasionally attacked. Signs and The main indicator of PPM attack is the presence of nests symptoms that are constructed by the caterpillars amongst the branches and foliage of pine trees. The caterpillars start to build the nests shortly after hatching.

  • Effects of Pure and Mixed Pine and Oak Forest Stands on Carabid Beetles
    diversity Article Effects of Pure and Mixed Pine and Oak Forest Stands on Carabid Beetles Alexandra Wehnert *, Sven Wagner and Franka Huth Department of Forest Sciences, Faculty of Environmental Sciences, Institute of Silviculture and Forest Protection, TU Dresden, 01737 Tharandt, Germany; [email protected] (S.W.); [email protected] (F.H.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-351-4633-1338 Abstract: The multiple-use approach to forestry applied in Germany aims to combine timber pro- duction and habitat management by preserving specific stand structures. We selected four forest stand types comprising (i) pure oak, (ii) equal oak–pine mixtures, (iii) single tree admixtures of oak in pine forest and (iv) pure pine. We analysed the effects of stand composition parameters on species representative of the larger carabid beetles (Carabus arvensis, C. coriaceus, C. hortensis, C. violaceus, Calosoma inquisitor). The main statistical methods used were correlation analyses and generalised linear mixed models. Cal. inquisitor was observed in pure oak forests exclusively. C. coriaceus and C. hortensis were absent from pure pine stands. High activity densities of C. arvensis and C. violaceus were observed in all four forest types. When assessed at the smaller scales of species crown cover proportions and spatial tree species effect zones, C. hortensis was found to be positively related to oak trees with a regular spatial distribution, whereas C. coriaceus preferred lower and more aggregated oak tree proportions. C. violaceus showed strong sex-specific tree species affinities. Information about preferences of carabid beetles is necessary for management activities targeting the adaptation of forest structures to habitat requirements.
