Price1 and Daniel K. Young1 ABSTRACT The first comprehensive survey of Wisconsin Endomychidae was initiated in 1998. Throughout Wisconsin sampling sites were selected based on habitat type and sampling history. Wisconsin endomychids were hand collected from fungi and under tree bark; successful trapping methods included cantharidin- baited pitfall traps, flight intercept traps, and Lindgren funnel traps. Examina- tion of literature records, museum and private collections, and field research yielded 10 species, three of which are new state records. Two dubious records, Epipocus unicolor Horn and Stenotarsus hispidus (Herbst), could not be con- firmed. -

Fauna Coleoptera Des Kreises Altenburg“ Vorgelegt Werden
©Mauritianum, Naturkundliches Museum Altenburg Mauritiana (Altenburg) 14 (1993) 3, S. 243-254 Fauna Coleóptera des Kreises Altenburg Zweite Ergänzung Erwin Naumann Zusammenfassung: Seit 1987 wurden im Kreis Altenburg 147 Käferarten erstmals nachgcwicscn und in die vorliegende Übersicht neben weiteren aufgenommen. Damit ergibt sich, daß in der Zeit 1838 — 1990 im untersuchten Gebiet ca. 1 800 Käferarten registriert wurden. Nach der Veröffentlichung der ersten Ergänzung im Jahre 1989 mit dem Stand der faunistischen Erfassung bis zum 31. 12. 1986 kann nun die zweite Ergänzung der „Fauna Coleoptera des Kreises Altenburg“ vorgelegt werden. Ich halte es für sinnvoll, auch für die zweite Ergänzung die bisherige Form bcizubchaltcn. Wenn bei verschiedenen Arten die Fundjahre noch in die Zeit der vorangegangenen Zusammenstellungen gehören, ist das darin begründet, daß die Determination dieser Exemplare erst später erfolgte oder die Fundmeldungen vorher nicht bekannt waren. Wie bisher weisen die Abkürzungen im Anschluß an die Fundort-Angabe daraufhin, daß Erwin Naumann (N) oder U lrich Poller (P) diese Art nachwiesen. Gehen Fundnachweise auf andere Personen zurück, ist das namentlich oder in Fußnoten vermerkt. Zwei Kreuze (+ + ) weisen darauf hin, daß diese Art erstmals im Kreisgebiet nachgewiesen wurden. Ein Kreuz (-(-) deutet einen neuen Fundort an, ohne Kreuz sind die Arten vermerkt, die seit längerer Zeit wieder nachgewiesen wurden. In dieser zweiten Ergänzung1) sind nur die Arten aufgenommen, die nach dem gegenwärtig gültigen und bekannten nomenklatorischen Stand bzw. von Koleopterologen determiniert wurden, deren fachliche Kompetenz anerkannt ist.

Contribution to Knowledge of the Tribe Gastrallini (Coleoptera: Bostrichoidea: Ptinidae) - IV
Studies and Reports Taxonomical Series 6 (1-2): 271-275, 2010 Contribution to knowledge of the tribe Gastrallini (Coleoptera: Bostrichoidea: Ptinidae) - IV. Review of the genus Falsogastrallus, with description of new species Petr ZAHRADNÍK Forestry and Game Management Research Institute Strnady 136, CZ-156 04 Praha 5 - Zbraslav, Czech Republic e-mail: [email protected] Taxonomy, new species, Coleoptera, Ptinidae, Falsogastrallus Abstract. Falsogastrallus Pic, 1914 (= Gastrallomimum Pic, 1939; = Neogastrallus Fisher, 1938) is represented by 16 species, one of them being new to science - Falsogastrallus indicus sp. nov. These species are distributed throughout the world, except the Australian region. INTRODUCTION The fi rst (and the last) complex review of the genus Falsogastralus Pic, 1914 was presented by Español (1979). He indicated eight species (including F. barbieri Pic) and noticed other 3 species, from which F. pendleburyi Pic, 1936 is now placed in the genus Methemus Broun, 1882. He used incorrectly name F. fi brinocens (Fisher, 1938) for F. librinocens (Fisher, 1938). Español (1977, 1979) indicated one problematic species - F. barbieri Pic, but he wrote that this name is probably nomen nudum, because he did not fi nd its description, but only a designated specimen in the Pic’s collection (“Saigon, 6-ix-50, J. Barbier, Falsogastrallus barbieri sp.n.”). I have not fi nd any description of this species, too. This species was not published also in Zoological records. According to my opinion this species is valid and the author is Español (1979), because he made a short description and cited the locality, and he also drew aedeagus of this species, which is in compliance with ICZN rules. -
Additions, Deletions and Corrections to the Staphylinidae in the Irish Coleoptera Annotated List, with a Revised Check-List of Irish Species
Bulletin of the Irish Biogeographical Society Number 41 (2017) ADDITIONS, DELETIONS AND CORRECTIONS TO THE STAPHYLINIDAE IN THE IRISH COLEOPTERA ANNOTATED LIST, WITH A REVISED CHECK-LIST OF IRISH SPECIES Jervis A. Good1 and Roy Anderson2 1Glinny, Riverstick, Co. Cork, Republic of Ireland. e-mail: <[email protected]> 21 Belvoirview Park, Belfast BT8 7BL, Northern Ireland. e-mail: <[email protected]> Abstract Since the 1997 Irish Coleoptera – a revised and annotated list, 59 species of Staphylinidae have been added to the Irish list, 11 species confirmed, a number have been deleted or require to be deleted, and the status of some species and names require correction. Notes are provided on the deletion, correction or status of 63 species, and a revised check-list of 710 species is provided with a generic index. Species listed, or not listed, as Irish in the Catalogue of Palaearctic Coleoptera (2nd edition), in comparison with this list, are discussed. The Irish status of Gabrius sexualis Smetana, 1954 is questioned, although it is retained on the list awaiting further investgation. Key words: Staphylinidae, check-list, Irish Coleoptera, Gabrius sexualis. Introduction The Staphylinidae (rove-beetles) comprise the largest family of beetles in Ireland (with 621 species originally recorded by Anderson, Nash and O’Connor (1997)) and in the world (with 55,440 species cited by Grebennikov and Newton (2009)). Since the publication in 1997 of Irish Coleoptera - a revised and annotated list by Anderson, Nash and O’Connor, there have been a large number of additions (59 species), confirmation of the presence of several species based on doubtful old records, a number of deletions and corrections, and significant nomenclatural and taxonomic changes to the list of Irish Staphylinidae. -

Dalum area (located in Gijang-gun, Busan, Korea) for our survey, particularly The pine wilt disease zone and the non-permanent control area. This study investigates the effect of pine wilt disease on the distribution of beetle species in the process of ecosystem change due to insect control; pine forests treated for pine wilt disease were divided into insect control and non-control sites, respectively. The results of this study are as follows. Twen tyseven species belongs to 12 families were identified from 969 ground beetles collected from this sites. Species richness was the highest in Coleoptera (6 species, 469 individuals). In the control site, 21 species belongs to 10 families were identified from 228 individuals, while 24 species of 11 families from 533 individuals in the non-control area. The highest number of species were noted in June and July from the non- control and control sites, respectively. The highest number of insects in control and non-control sites was observed in July, while the lowest in September. -
Coleoptera from the Middle-Upper Eocene European Ambers: Generic Composition, Zoogeography and Climatic Implications

ALEKSEEV Department of Zootechny, Kaliningrad State Technical University, Sovetsky Avenue 1. 236000, Kaliningrad, Russia. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The paper contains a review of coleopteran genera known from Baltic, Bitterfeld and Rovno amber localities. Altogether 420 genera (191 extinct and 229 extant) from 78 families are listed from these three Lagerstätten (as of 7 March 2017). The listed beetles were analyzed zoogeographically and distributional maps for 72 genera were compiled. One-quarter (56) of the genera that have survived since the Eocene have cosmopolitan ranges at present; 35 extant genera have been extripated from the Palaearctic since the Eocene. Approximately 40% of beetle genera from the middle-upper Eocene Eu- ropean ambers can be encountered in the wild in present-day Europe, while 5 of these genera are supposed to be European relict endemics originating in Fennosarmatia. The general similarity of the Baltic amber (s.l.) beetle assemblage to modern south Palaearctic fauna is the strongest, the Nearctic elements are more numerous in the middle-upper Eocene European ambers than the Oriental taxa. The simplified Mutual Climatic Range (MCR) method was used for palaeoclimate recon- struction based on fossil beetles. The coleopteran assemblage of Baltic amber is interpreted as indicative of warm temper- ate, humid, equable climate with reduced thermal seasonality [annual average temperatures range from +10–20˚C; mean of the coldest month temperatures around +10˚C; mean of the hottest month temperature around +20–24˚C; annual pre- cipitation around 750–1500 mm]. -

The morphological variability and different modes of life result from beetle ability to adapt to all kinds of habitats. Terrestrial and soil living forms dominate. Beetles undergo a complete metamorphosis and most species live in soil during at least one of the stages. They include predators, herbivores, parasites and sapro- phagans, playing a fairly significant role in nature and in man’s economy. Our knowledge of beetles, even of the common species, is insufficient. In spite of the fact that the beetle fauna of Central Europe has been studied relatively well, the knowledge accumulated is generally limited to the adults, while the immature stages have not been adequately studied. -

Acta Musei Moraviae, Scientiae biologicae (Brno) 100(2): 217–249. – Pentacomia (Pentacomia) chrysammoides sp.nov. is described as new to science from Bolivia. The new species is closely related to P. (P.) chrysamma Bates, 1872 (the type species of the genus Pentacomia Bates, 1872), originally described from Ecuador and commonly considered widespread in the Amazon Basin. After an examination of hundreds of specimens of a great number of populations, the occurrence of the genuine P. (P.) chrysamma with characters comparable with type specimens has been confirmed with certainty in Ecuador and partly in northern and interior Peru, while some populations in central and southern Peru (very rarely also in northern Bolivia) possess inconsistent internal characters. It has appeared that apart from a certain variability, P.
