Interspecific competition is a major structuring force in ant assemblages. The assemblages are organized hierarchically, with territorial species as top competitors. In boreal areas and in the temperate deciduous forest biome common territorials are species of the subgenus Formica s. str. They are well known for their negative impact on lower-ranked ant species. Less is known, though the structuring role of Lasius fuliginosus, another territorial ant species. Some earlier studies have shown or suggested that it may restrictively affect subordinate species (including direct predation toward them) even stronger than wood ants do. In the present study we compared species compositions and nest densities of subordinate ant species within and outside territories of L. fuliginosus. The results obtained confirmed that this species visibly impoverishes both qualitatively (reduced species richness, altered dominance structures) and quantitatively (decreased nest densities) ant assemblages within its territories. -

An identification key is provided to the known Brazilian species of Aeletes. Ecological data are provided for the new spe- cies and for the genus, being the first record of Aeletes in carrion. Key words: Acritini, decaying organic matter, forensic entomology, histerid beetle, Paraná Resumo Uma nova espécie de Abraeinae, Aeletes (s. str.) nicolasi sp. nov. é descrita e ilustrada do Paraná, Brasil. Uma chave de identificação para as espécies brasileiras conhecidas de Aeletes é fornecida. São incluídos dados ecológicos para a espécie e o gênero, sendo o primeiro registro de Aeletes em carcaça. Palavras chave: Acritini, entomologia forense, histerídeo, matéria orgânica em decomposição, Paraná Introduction The species of the tribes Acritini and Abraeini (Abraeinae) are minute histerids with a wide geographic distribu- tion. They occur in decaying organic matter (such as plant detritus, litter, tree cavities, under bark, external debris of ants, in and under decaying seaweed, etc.) and usually prey on small invertebrates such as minute insects, mites and probably nematodes (Mazur 1997; 2005). -

Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) Abstract Increasing forest management resulting from bark beetle attack in British Columbia's forests has created a need to assess the impact of single species management on local insect biodiversity. In the Fort St James Forest District, in central British Columbia, Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii Franco) (Fd) grows at the northern limit of its North American range. At the district level the species is rare (representing 1% of timber stands), and in the early 1990's growing populations of the Douglas-fir beetle (Dendroctonus pseudotsuage Hopkins) threatened the loss of all mature Douglas-fir habitat in the district. -

This is the first report of this species from Finland. Aspects of the biology of F. lusatica under the local conditions, and especially its relations with Formica sanguinea LATREILLE, 1798, are presented and the description of its males is given.

Abstract Additions, deletions and corrections are made to the Irish checklist of butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera). Elachista biatomella (Stainton, 1848) is added to the Irish list. The total number of confirmed Irish species of Lepidoptera now stands at 1480. Key words: Lepidoptera, additions, deletions, corrections, Irish list, Elachista biatomella Introduction Bond, Nash and O’Connor (2006) provided a checklist of the Irish Lepidoptera. Since its publication, many new discoveries have been made and are reported here. In addition, several deletions have been made. A concise and updated checklist is provided. The following abbreviations are used in the text: BM(NH) – The Natural History Museum, London; NMINH – National Museum of Ireland, Natural History, Dublin. The total number of confirmed Irish species now stands at 1480, an addition of 68 since Bond et al. (2006). Taxonomic arrangement As a result of recent systematic research, it has been necessary to replace the arrangement familiar to British and Irish Lepidopterists by the Fauna Europaea [FE] system used by Karsholt 60 Bulletin of the Irish Biogeographical Society No. 36 (2012) and Razowski, which is widely used in continental Europe.
