    Studium struktury společenstev epigeických brouků na výzkumných plochách Study of community structure of epigeic beetles on forest research plots Jaroslav Boháč 1 Zemědělská fakulta Jihočeské univerzity, Na Sádkách 1780, 370 05 České Budějovice Abstract Epigeic and hemiedaphic beetles were studied in different localities in lowland oak forests of protected regions of Czech Republic: Protected Landscape Area Czech Karst by Prague, National Park Podyjí and Protected Landscape Area Pálava in south Moravia. Plots with management (cutting of forests or pasturing) and control plots without management were indicated in every locality. The last two localities were at the mount Plechý in the Šumava National Park with mountain (climax) Norway spruce forests. The cutted plots of forest on Austrian part of the mountain and unattached plots without management (fade forests with young seedelings) were compared. Material was collected with pitfall traps and soil quadrats sampling. The material was determined and species were classified into groups after the sensitivity to human impact (species living in habitats without human impact, species living in human made forest and ubiquitous species living in heavy disturbed habitats (BOHÁČ 1999, BOHÁČ et JAHNOVÁ 2015). Ecological analysis of communities was made (BOHÁČ 1999). Statistical analysis was made on the base of cluster analysis and Shannon-Wiener index and index of equitability were calculated. Together 272 species and 7558 specimen of model groups (Carabidae, Stahylinidae, Silphidae and Geotrupidae) was found on studied localities. Communities of of beetles differ strongly in oak forests and forest steppe in lowland oak forests. The xerothermis species presents on forests steppe and forest species in oak forests.

Viviparity is characterized by the retention of fertilized eggs in reproductive tract of the female. This condition is very common in vertebrates, but relatively rare in invertebrates, including insects. The present work presents a review on viviparity in Staphylinidae, with special attention on genus Corotoca Schiødte, 1853. The genus is composed by six termitophilous species with neotropical distribution, and together with Spirachtha Schiødte, 1853 are the only to genera with species confirmed as viviparous in the family. Also, information and discussion are presented on the life cycle of Corotoca species based on dissection of females in laboratory and field observations. During the dissection of females of four species of Corotoca we observed that each female carries three eggs at the same time.

  • Мирмекофильные Жесткокрылые (Insecta, Coleoptera) – Сожители Муравьев Рода Formica Белорусского Поозерья
    Вестник БГУ. Сер. 2. 2016. № 2. С. 60–66 УДК 595.763(476.5) МИРМЕКОФИЛЬНЫЕ ЖЕСТКОКРЫЛЫЕ (INSECTA, COLEOPTERA) – СОЖИТЕЛИ МУРАВЬЕВ РОДА FORMICA БЕЛОРУССКОГО ПООЗЕРЬЯ Е. С. ПЛИСКЕВИЧ 1) 1)УО «Витебский государственный университет им. П. М. Машерова», Московский пр., 33, 210038, г. Витебск, Республика Беларусь Рассмотрены таксономический состав и экологические особенности мирмекофильных жесткокрылых, населяющих гнезда муравьев рода Formica L. В ходе исследований использовался материал, собранный на территории Белорусского Поозерья в 2000, 2010−2015 гг. Для сбора жесткокрылых применялись почвенные ловушки и почвенные сита. Всего было выявлено 50 видов мирмекофильных жесткокрылых из 10 семейств. В гнездах муравьев рода Formica по количеству учтенных эк- земпляров и по числу видов преобладают мирмекофильные жесткокрылые семейства Staphylinidae. Реже других в гнездах муравьев наблюдались Scydmoraphes helvolus, S. minutus, Trimium brevicorne, Plectophloeus nitidus, Tyrus mucronatus, Atheta myrmecobia, Stenichnus scutellaris, Euplectus nanus, Dinarda dentatа, Pella limbata, Lomechusa emarginata, Lomechusa paradoxa, Lomechusa pubicollis. Наибольшее видовое богатство и количество экземпляров мирмекофилов в гнездах муравьев были от- мечены весной (апрель – 24 вида (415 экз.), май – 19 видов (187 экз.)). Летом активность имаго мирмекофилов снижается, но к осени количество видов и их численность возрастают. Ключевые слова: таксономический состав; экологические особенности; видовое богатство; Staphylinidae.

Prvé Hexapoda sa objavujú v devóne pred 350 000 000 aţ 400 000 000 rokov. V rámci triedy hmyzu pozorujeme obrovské mnoţstvo a rozmanitosť foriem. Spomedzi všetkých známych druhov ţivočíchov patrí aţ 85 % k hmyzu. V súčasnosti je na našej planéte opísaných okolo 1 milióna druhov, ale predpokladá sa, ţe tento počet je omnoho väčší. Hmyz je bohatý a diverzifikovaný nielen počtom druhov, ale aj počtom jedincov. Podľa odhadov, na jeden štvorcový kilometer súše, kde sú vhodné podmienky pre ţivot, priemerne pripadá aţ 10 miliónov jedincov hmyzu, a na jedného človeka je to asi 200 miliónov. Uvedené čísla poukazujú na skutočnosť, ţe táto ţivočíšna skupina dosahuje v súčasnosti najväčší evolučný rozkvet a s výnimkou mora obsadila všetky ekologické niky. V čom spočíva taký veľký evolučný úspech hmyzu? Je to hlavne vďaka jeho rozmerom, ktoré sú pomerne malé. To mu umoţňuje ţiť v habitatoch, ktoré sú pre mnohé iné ţivočíchy nedostupné. Hmyz má obvykle relatívne krátky ontogenetický cyklus a pomerne veľké rozmnoţovacie schopnosti. Počas roka sa môţe vyvinúť väčší počet generácií. Toto umoţňuje zväčšiť rýchlosť adaptácií pod vplyvom prírodnej selekcie.
