Francesco Chiodelli Both the Israelis and the Palestinians have implemented different spatial measures in pursuit of their disparate political aims. However, it is the Israeli authorities who have played the key role in the process of the “political transformation” of the Holy City’s urban fabric, with the occupied territories of East Jerusalem, in particular, being the object of Israeli spatial action. Their aim has been the prevention of any possible attempt to re-divide the city.2 In fact, the military conquest in 1967 was not by itself sufficient to assure Israel that it had full and permanent The wall at Abu Dis.

So, since June 1967, after the overtly military phase of the conflict, Israeli authorities have implemented an “urban consolidation phase,” with the aim of making the military conquests irreversible precisely by modifying the urban space.

E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] *Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We surveyed and identified species of lady beetles from the West Bank to document their geographic distribution and understand their ecological significance. This study documents the presence of 35 species of Coccinellidae in 19 genera belonging to 10 tribes and 6 subfamilies. Seven species (mostly very rare), out of the 35 documented, are recorded for the first time in the area studied. These are Nephus (Bipunctatus) bipunctatus, N. crucifer, Scymnus (Scymnus) interruptus, S. (Parapullus) abietis, S. (Neopullus) limbatus, S. nigropictus, and S. (Pullus) suturalis. Nephus peyerimhoffi, introduced to Palestine in 1986 and later considered extirpated, is recorded from three localities in this study. The distribution of many species generally correlates with local biogeographical zones. All species recorded during the study feed on agricultural pests such as aphids and scale insects.
