    ©Ampulex online, Christian Schmid-Egger; download unter http://www.ampulex.de oder www.zobodat.at AMPULEX 4|2012 Fuhrmann: Wegwespen des Nationalparks Kellerwald-Edersee Die Wegwespenfauna (Hymenoptera: Pompi- lidae) unterschiedlicher Waldstandorte des Nationalparks Kellerwald-Edersee Markus Fuhrmann Zum Großen Wald 19 | 57223 Kreuztal | Germany | [email protected] Zusammenfassung Es werden Ergebnisse der Untersuchung von Wegwespen drei verschiedener Waldstandorte des Nationalparks Kellerwald-Edersee vorgestellt. Während zwei der drei Wälder typische bodensaure Buchenwaldstandorte unterschiedlichen Alters verkörpern, ist der dritte Standort ein steiler Eichengrenzwald, der stark mit Kiefern bewachsen ist. Insgesamt kommen Daten von 717 gefangenen Individuen in 17 Arten zur Auswertung. Die Fauna setzt sich auf den bodensauren Buchenwaldstandorten aus weit verbreiteten euryöken Wegwespen zusammen. Auffällig ist, dass allein 628 Wegwespen in 14 Arten von einer isolierten Windwurffläche des Sturmes Kyrill stammen. Demgegenüber konnten in einem sehr alten, aufgelichteten Buchenwald nur 56 Exemplare in fünf Arten gefangen werden. Wegwespen haben in aufgelichte- ten, „urwaldähnlichen“ Buchenwäldern ihr Aktivitätsmaximum in den Frühjahrsmonaten. Auf Lichtungen hingegen kommen neben Frühjahrsarten auch Hochsommer-Pompiliden vor. Es zeigte sich, dass das Vorkommen der Pompiliden im Wesentlichen durch ein für die Entwicklung der Larven geeignetes Mikroklima innerhalb des Waldes bestimmt wird, und weniger durch die Spinnendichte und die Verfügbarkeit von Nestrequisiten. Summary Markus Fuhrmann: The fauna of Spider Wasps (Hymenoptera: Pompilidae) of different forest habitats in the National Park Keller- wald-Edersee (Germany, Hessen). Pompilid wasps were studied in three different forest types in the Nationalpark Kellerwald-Edersee (Germany, Hesse, Waldeck-Frankenberg). Two woods were red beech forests, the third was a boundary oak wood. The oak wood yet was dominated by pines.

    Sand pit for Biodiversity at Cep II quarry Researcher: Klára Řehounková Research group: Petr Bogusch, David Boukal, Milan Boukal, Lukáš Čížek, František Grycz, Petr Hesoun, Kamila Lencová, Anna Lepšová, Jan Máca, Pavel Marhoul, Klára Řehounková, Jiří Řehounek, Lenka Schmidtmayerová, Robert Tropek Březen – září 2012 Abstract We compared the effect of restoration status (technical reclamation, spontaneous succession, disturbed succession) on the communities of vascular plants and assemblages of arthropods in CEP II sand pit (T řebo ňsko region, SW part of the Czech Republic) to evaluate their biodiversity and conservation potential. We also studied the experimental restoration of psammophytic grasslands to compare the impact of two near-natural restoration methods (spontaneous and assisted succession) to establishment of target species. The sand pit comprises stages of 2 to 30 years since site abandonment with moisture gradient from wet to dry habitats. In all studied groups, i.e. vascular pants and arthropods, open spontaneously revegetated sites continuously disturbed by intensive recreation activities hosted the largest proportion of target and endangered species which occurred less in the more closed spontaneously revegetated sites and which were nearly absent in technically reclaimed sites. Out results provide clear evidence that the mosaics of spontaneously established forests habitats and open sand habitats are the most valuable stands from the conservation point of view. It has been documented that no expensive technical reclamations are needed to restore post-mining sites which can serve as secondary habitats for many endangered and declining species. The experimental restoration of rare and endangered plant communities seems to be efficient and promising method for a future large-scale restoration projects in abandoned sand pits.

Remarkable for the fauna of Northwest-Germany are the records of Aporus unicolor, Arachnospila wesmaeli, Ceropales maculata, Cryptocheilus notatus, Episyron albonotatum, and Evagetes gibbulus. Remarks on the biology, phenology, abundance, and endangerment of the species are gi - ven. Our data together with data from the literature are compiled in a checklist for the spi - der wasps of Westphalia. The results emphasize the importance of the primary and secon - dary sand habitats for the Westphalian spider-wasps. 1. Einleitung Die Wegwespen (Pompilidae) sind weltweit mit über 4200 beschriebenen Arten kosmo - politisch verbreitet ( BROTHERS & F INNAMORE 1993). Ihre Stellung innerhalb des Phyloge - netischen Systems der aculeaten Hymenopteren ist noch umstritten. Die Aculeata im weiteren Sinne werden in 3 monophyletische Teilgruppen gegliedert: Die Chrysidoidea (ein Taxon das die Goldwespen (Chrysididae) und ihre Verwandten umfasst), Apoidea (Grabwespen („Sphecidae“) und Bienen (Apidae), wobei letztere als Teilgruppe der Grabwespen angesehen werden können (siehe z. B. OHL 1995)), und Vespoidea (alle restlichen Aculeaten).

Mr Nico-Schneider, entomologiste luxembourgeois bien connu pour ses recherches sur la faune locale, m'a recemment soumis pour verification d'identite ou determina- tion un lot de plus de 150 pompilides du Grand-Duche de Luxembourg, captures de 1992 ä 1995 dans le cadre d'une etude de la faune des carrieres abandonnees.

Un examen plus attentif devait cependant me permettre de constater que la tete, y compris les antennes de 13 ar- ticles, etait bien celle d'un 6 alors que tout le reste du corps: thorax, gastre, pattes et ailes etaient du sexe 9. Ce phenomene genetique, bien connu, reste cependant relativement rare et malgre le nombre considerable de pompilides qui me sont passes par les mains sur pres d'un demi-siecle, c'est la premiere fois que j'observe le cas chez une espece europeenne.

It is also responsible for some functions previously undertaken by Welsh Government. Our purpose is to ensure that the natural resources of Wales are sustainably maintained, used and enhanced, now and in the future. We work for the communities of Wales to protect people and their homes as much as possible from environmental incidents like flooding and pollution. We provide opportunities for people to learn, use and benefit from Wales' natural resources. We work to support Wales' economy by enabling the sustainable use of natural resources to support jobs and enterprise. We help businesses and developers to understand and consider environmental limits when they make important decisions. We work to maintain and improve the quality of the environment for everyone and we work towards making the environment and our natural resources more resilient to climate change and other pressures. Evidence at Natural Resources Wales Natural Resources Wales is an evidence based organisation. We seek to ensure that our strategy, decisions, operations and advice to Welsh Government and others are underpinned by sound and quality-assured evidence. We recognise that it is critically important to have a good understanding of our changing environment.

  • Second Report Into the Chrysis Ignita Group – a Provisional Approach to Gain Confidence in Identifying the Specimens

    Second Report Into the Chrysis Ignita Group – a Provisional Approach to Gain Confidence in Identifying the Specimens

    Second report into the Chrysis ignita group – a provisional approach to gain confidence in identifying the specimens Michael Archer, 17 Elmfield Terrace, Malton Road, YORK YO31 1EH I have now gained more experience in identifying specimens of the genus Chrysis with the help of grants from BWARS and BENHS in visiting further, and making loans from, museums. In addition, I have started to look at personal collections of Chrysididae, including my own collection. As such, I am now able to give the following advice for the nine names used by Morgan (1984), although I still need more experience of specimens of C. schencki. 1. The nine names of Morgan that will be considered are: C. pseudobrevitarsis, C. longula, C. ruddii, C. angustula, C. ignita, C. impressa, C. schencki, C. rutiliventris and C. mediata. 2. Kunz (1994) reduced these nine names of Morgan to three species: C. pseudobrevitarsis, C. mediata and C. ignita. 3. The C. ignita of Kunz includes Morgan’s names: angustula, impressa, schencki, rutiliventris, longula, ruddii besides ignita, although longula and ruddii are recognised as varieties. I will refer to the C. ignita of Kunz as the C. ignita complex. I have been able to find specimens of Morgan’s nine names which agree with the characteristics given by Morgan. There are, however, specimens which are difficult to place with one of the names of Morgan. To overcome this problem I have developed a set of characters which will, hopefully, enable you to build up a set of “type” specimens for each name. Your set of “type” will then give you confidence to determine the more difficult specimens.

This document is the final report of that survey. 1.2 Terrestrial Invertebrate Survey methodology 1.2.1 The minimum survey effort recommended by Brooks (Brooks, 1993. ‘Guidelines for invertebrate site surveys’. British Wildlife 4: 283-286) was taken as a basic requirement for the present survey. Daytime sampling of terrestrial invertebrate species was undertaken in all areas by direct observation, by sweep netting and by using a beating tray. In addition, a suction sampler was deployed and a number of pitfall and pan traps were set. 1.2.2 Sweep-netting. A stout hand-held net is moved vigorously through vegetation to dislodge resting insects. The technique may be used semi-quantitatively by timing the number of sweeps through vegetation of a similar type and counting selected groups of species. This technique is effective for many invertebrates, including several beetle families, most plant bug groups and a large number of other insects that live in vegetation of this type.

Some characteristic species of the meso- xerophytic meadows are remarkable, especially the very rare wasps of rocky habi- tats Agenioideus nubecula (Pompilidae) and Eumenes subpomiformis (Eumeninae). Einleitung Von den in Mitteleuropa in mind. 12000 Arten vorkommenden Hautflüglern (Hymenoptera) gehören 90 % zu den Wespen (Ga u l d & BOLTON 1988). Der größte Teil der Wespenarten sind durchwegs parasitisch lebende Le- gimmen (Terebrantes), kleinere Gruppen bilden die Pflanzenwespen (Sym- phyta) und die Stechimmen (Aculeata), deren bekannteste Vertreter die gelb-schwarzen Faltenwespen (Deutsche Wespe, Gemeine Wespe, Hornis­ se) sind.

    Hymenoptera: Aculeata) of Some Key Heathland Sites in the West Midlands Region

    BR. J. ENT. NAT. HIST., 23: 2010 77 THE BEE AND WASP ASSEMBLAGES (HYMENOPTERA: ACULEATA) OF SOME KEY HEATHLAND SITES IN THE WEST MIDLANDS REGION STEVEN J. FALK Warwickshire Museum, Market Place, Warwick CV34 4SA [email protected] ABSTRACT A description of the modern bee and wasp assemblages of seven heathlands in the British West Midlands region at the end of the twentieth century is given with an indication of historic losses and recent gains. The characteristics of the various habitats that are typically present at such sites and the way that these are utilised by bees and wasps are discussed. INTRODUCTION Despite the ravages of agricultural improvement and the substantial growth of towns and cities within the British West Midlands Region (sensu modern Herefordshire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire and the unitary districts such as Birmingham and Wolverhampton that formed the former West Midlands County), patches of lowland heathland still remain. However, huge losses have been incurred (90% in Staffordshire over the past 200 years according to DEFRA, 2003) and with the exception of Cannock Chase the remaining sites are mostly small and isolated. Today, the Region supports approximately 3000 hectares of ‘heathland’ (DEFRA, loc. cit.) of which nearly 2000 hectares fall within modern Staffordshire, 500 hectares in the former West Midlands County, 108 hectares in modern Worcestershire, and the remainder in Herefordshire, Shropshire and Warwickshire. The precise definition of heathland used by the various sources varies from ericaceous dwarf-shrub communities in the strictest sense to the larger mosaics of heathers, scrub, bracken and grassland that often occur in association.
