Acta Musei Moraviae, Scientiae biologicae (Brno) 96(2) (2011): 323–628. – An extensive survey of true bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) was carried out in the Bílé Karpaty Protected Landscape Area and Biosphere Reserve (south-eastern Moravia, Czech Republic) in 1998–2010, combining various methods of qualitative and quantitative sampling. Before 1998, just 98 species of Heteroptera had been recorded from the Czech side of the Bílé Karpaty Mts., as geographically defined in this contribution. The newly-acquired material yielded 10,732 faunistic records based on examination of ca. 35,984 specimens of Heteroptera. A total of 501 species of true bugs is now known from the Bílé Karpaty PLA, which constitutes 58% of the Czech heteropteran fauna. Among the various habitats, species-rich grasslands are of crucial importance for Heteroptera, harbouring many rare and threatened species, among them Criocoris nigripes Fieber, 1861, Deraeocoris morio (Boheman, 1852), Halticus pusillus (Herrich-Schaeffer, 1835), Heterocapillus tigripes Mulsant et Rey, 1852, Lopus decolor (Fallén, 1807), Macrotylus paykullii (Fallén, 1807), Megalocoleus molliculus (Fallén, 1807), Orthocephalus brevis (Panzer, 1798), Orthocephalus coriaceus (Fabricius, 1777), Placochilus seladonicus (Fallén, 1807), and Systellonotus triguttatus (Linnaeus, 1767). Other important habitats are hedges and forest margins, spring fens, and natural deciduous forests. Three species are recorded here for the first time from the Czech Republic: Charagochilus spiralifer Kerzhner, 1988, Heterocordylus cytisi Josifov, 1958 (both Miridae), and Dysepicritus rufescens (A. Costa, 1847) (Anthocoridae); further, H. cytisi is a first record for central Europe. Four additional species are recorded for the first time for Moravia: Acalypta platycheila (Fieber, 1844) (Tingidae), Phytocoris (Phytocoris) hirsutulus Flor, 1861 (Miridae), Loricula (Loricula) ruficeps (Reuter, 1884) (Microphysidae), and Elatophilus (Elatophilus) nigricornis (Zetterstedt, 1838) (Anthocoridae). In addition, Ch. weberi Wagner, 1953 is removed from the list of Slovak fauna while Ch spiralifer is listed from Slovakia for the first time. Altogether 62 of the true bug species (12%) recorded in the Bílé Karpaty PLA fall into the categories defined by the Red List of threatened invertebrates of the Czech Republic. One of them, Megalotomus junceus (Scopoli, 1763), was considered extinct prior to its rediscovery in the Bílé Karpaty PLA. Four other species are classified as critically endangered: Agramma confusum (Puton, 1879), Tropidothorax leucopterus (Goeze, 1778), Coriomeris scabricornis (Panzer, 1809), and Chlorochroa juniperina (Linnaeus, 1758), while nine are considered endangered: Gerris asper (Fieber, 1860), Macrotylus quadrilineatus (Schrank, 1785), Tytthus pygmaeus (Zetterstedt, 1838), Peritrechus gracilicornis Puton, 1877, Scolopostethus puberulus Horváth, 1887, Berytinus striola (Ferrari, 1874), Ceraleptus gracilicornis (Herrich- Schaeffer, 1835), Sehirus morio (Linnaeus, 1761), and Holcostethus sphacelatus (Fabricius, 1794). Thirty-one species are vulnerable, and seventeen near-threatened. The majority of the heteropteran fauna of the Bílé Karpaty PLA belong to a range of widely-distributed faunistic elements: 100 species (20%) are of Holopalaearctic or Holarctic distribution, 163 species (33%) are Eurosiberian, 108 species (22%) West Palaearctic or West Eurosiberian, 69 species (14%) European, and 57 species (11%) are of Mediterranean origin. Among the Mediterranean species, several are of major zoogeographical importance, reaching their northernmost distribution limits in the Bílé Karpaty: Harpocera hellenica Reuter, 1876, Heterocapillus tigripes, Heterocordylus cytisi, Icodema infuscata (Fieber, 1861), Psallus asthenicus Seidenstücker, 1966, P. cruentatus (Mulsant et Rey, 1852), Megalotomus junceus, and Vilpianus galii (Wolff, 1802). The suitability of Malaise traps as a method of assessing the heteropteran diversity in a given area is briefly discussed. Key words. Hemiptera, Heteroptera, faunistics, new records, threatened species, White Carpathians, Moravia, Malaise traps 323.

Many are highly beneficial. Almost all U.S. crops and domesticated animals, many sport fish and aquiculture species, numerous horticultural plants, and most biologicalN control organisms have origins outside the country. A large number of NIS, however, cause significant economic, environmental, and health damage. These harmful species are the focus of this study. The total number of harmful NIS and their cumulative impacts are creating a growing burden for the country. We cannot completely stop the tide of new harmful introductions. Perfect screening, detection, and control are technically impossible and will remain so for the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, the Federal and State policies designed to protect us from the worst species are not safeguarding our national interests in important areas. These conclusions have a number of policy implications. First, the Nation has no real national policy on harmful introductions; the current system is piecemeal, lacking adequate rigor and comprehensiveness. Second, many Federal and State statutes, regulations, and programs are not keeping pace with new and spreading non-indigenous pests.

Diagonal 645, 08028 Barcelona, Spain – [email protected] Abstract: A checklist of 43 Heteropteran species collected in the area of influence of Can Coll School of Nature is given. By its rarity in the Catalan fauna, the mirid Deraeocoris (D.) schach (Fabricius, 1781) and the pentatomid Sciocoris (N.) maculatus Fieber, 1851 are interesting species. Plus being rare species, the mirid Macrotylus (A.) solitarius (Meyer-Dür, 1843) and the pentatomid Sciocoris (S.) umbrinus (Wolff, 1804) are new records for the Natural Park. The mirids Alloetomus germanicus Wagner, 1939 and Amblytylus brevicollis Fieber, 1858, and the pentatomid Eysarcoris aeneus (Scopoli, 1763) are new contributions for the Park checklist. The Heteropteran richness of Can Coll suggests them as study group for the environmental education goals of this School of Nature.
