  • Terrestrial Insects: a Hidden Biodiversity Crisis? 1
    Chapter 7—Terrestrial Insects: A Hidden Biodiversity Crisis? 1 Chapter 7 Terrestrial Insects: A Hidden Biodiversity Crisis? C.H. Dietrich Illinois Natural History Survey OBJECTIVES Like most other elements of the biota, the terrestrial insect fauna of Illinois has undergone drastic change since European colonization of the state. Although data are sparse or entirely lacking for most species, it is clear that many formerly abundant native species are now exceedingly rare while a few previously uncommon or undocumented species, both native and exotic, are now abundant. Much of this change may be attributable to fragmentation and loss of native habitats (e.g., deforestation, draining of wetlands, agricultural conversion and intensification, urbanization), although other factors such as invasion by exotic species (including plants, insects and pathogens), misuse of pesticides, and improper management of native ecosystems have probably also been involved. Data from Illinois and elsewhere in the north temperate zone provide evidence that at least some groups of terrestrial insects have undergone dramatic declines over the past several decades, suggesting that insects are no less vulnerable to anthropogenic environmental change than other groups of organisms Yet, insects continue to be under-represented on official lists of threatened or endangered species and conservation programs focus primarily on vertebrates and plants. This chapter summarizes available information on long-term changes in the terrestrial insect fauna of Illinois, reviews possible causes for these changes, highlights some urgent research needs, and provides recommendations for conservation and management of terrestrial insect communities. INTRODUCTION Insects are among the most important “little things that run the world” (1).

  • Zum Sommeraspekt Der Zikadenfauna Des Kyffhäusergebirges (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha)
    Beiträge zur Zikadenkunde 9: 15-22 (2007) 15 A food plant study of the Auchenorrhyncha of the Częstochowa upland, southern Poland (Insecta, Hemiptera) Dariusz Świerczewski1 Kurzfassung: Auf der Hochebene von Tschenstochau in Süd-Polen wurde 2004 bis 2006 die Zikadenfauna von 31 Kräuter- und Grasarten untersucht. Das Material umfasst insgesamt 1970 adulte Individuen aus 44 Arten. Für 21 Pflanzenarten werden Zikadengilden beschrieben und diskutiert. Abstract: Auchenorrhyncha were sampled on 31 species of forbs and grasses in the years 2004-2006 in the area of Częstochowa Upland in southern Poland. Altogether, the material includes 1970 adult individuals belonging to 44 species. Auchenorrhyncha guilds for 21 plants are described and discussed. Key words: Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha guilds, food plants, Poland 1. Introduction The knowledge of Auchenorrhyncha food plants in Poland, unlike those published recently from Germany (Nickel 2003) or Britain (e.g. Waloff & Solomon 1973; Cook 1996), are far from complete. Smreczyński (1954) and Nast (1976) provided records mainly for arboricolous taxa, i.e. Macropsinae, Idiocerinae, Jassinae and Typhlocybinae, but there is still no information on the food preferences of the bulk of the leafhopper fauna. The aim of this work was to determine Auchenorrhyncha guilds associated with forbs and grasses, which are notable constituents of grasslands on limestone and sandy substrates of the Częstochowa upland in southern Poland. 2. Study area, methods and material A survey was carried out over a 3-year period (2004-2006) near the villages of Olsztyn and Mstów, UTM CB 72, CB 73 (Fig. 1). This region is characterized by Upper Jurassic limestone formations dissected by valleys filled with Pleistocene sands.

INTRODUCTION Planthoppers and leafhoppers (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha et Cicadomorpha) are phytophagous insects which are highly related to their host plants, and most of them are trophically specialized as mono- or oligophagous (niCkel 2003), so most of them are attached to the specific plant associations, where they form multispecies communities.

A total of 46 species of Auchenorrhyncha are reported from the Maltese Islands. They belong to the following families: Cixiidae (3 species), Delphacidae (7 species), Meenoplidae (1 species), Dictyopharidae (1 species), Tettigometridae (2 species), Issidae (2 species), Cicadidae (1 species), Aphrophoridae (2 species) and Cicadellidae (27 species). Since the Auchenorrhyncha fauna of Malta was never studied as such, 40 species reported in this work represent new records for this country and of these, Tamaricella complicata, an eastern Mediterranean species, is confirmed for the European territory. One species, Balclutha brevis is an established alien associated with the invasive Fontain Grass, Pennisetum setaceum. From a biogeographical perspective, the most interesting species are represented by Falcidius ebejeri which is endemic to Malta and Tachycixius remanei, a sub-endemic species so far known only from Italy and Malta. Three species recorded from Malta in the Fauna Europaea database were not found during the present study. KEY WORDS. Malta, Mediterranean, Planthoppers, Leafhoppers, new records. INTRODUCTION The Auchenorrhyncha is represented by a large group of plant sap feeding insects commonly referred to as leafhoppers, planthoppers, cicadas, etc. They occur in all terrestrial ecosystems where plants are present. Some species can transmit plant pathogens (viruses, bacteria and phytoplasmas) and this is often a problem if the host-plant happens to be a cultivated plant.
