A total of 61 species of beetles (Makihara, 1999), Sarawak (Fatimah Abang, representing 17 families and 47 genera were 2000 & 2005, personal comm.; Lim,1996, collected from Ginseng Camp, Maliau Basin, Bright, 2000) and Sabah (Mohamedsaid, Sabah using light trapping method. The 1997; Chey, 1996). A detailed entomological Scarabaeidae, Cerambycidae, Lucanidae and collection in Sabah and Sarawak reports Elateridae form 70% of the total collection. about 625,511 processed specimens, which Some of the species collected are new records include the Order Coleoptera (Fatimah Abang, for Maliau Basin. 2000). There was also a detailed study on the distribution of beetles in the tropical rain Keywords: Beetles, light-trapping, Ginseng forest at Belalong in Batu Apoi Forest Reserve, Camp, Maliau Basin.

There are very few records of the beetle fauna A checklist of 124 species of galecurine from Maliau Basin even though much has been beetles from Kalimantan has been recorded written about Maliau Basin as an enthralling from the Museum of Zoology, Bogor, Indonesia and mysterious treasure house of nature (Reid, 1997).

The 1998 collection was made in the timber industry (Chey, 1996). A record of lower montane forest on the southern plateau 325 species of beetles was collected using of Maliau Basin at an elevation of 1000 m Flight Intercept Traps at less degraded and using Flight Intercept Traps (FITs). more degraded logged forests in Tibow (Chey et al., 2002).

Linsley Gressitt Of the Lingnan Natural History Survey and Museum Lingnan University, Canton, China EIGHT PLATES The present report is in the nature of a classification of the longicorn, or long-horned, beetles hitherto collected on Hainan Island, as far as available to the writer. A large part of the material on which the work has been based is included in the collections of the Lingnan Natural History Museum of Lingnan University, Canton, made on various expeditions, principally by F. K. To in 1932 and 1935, by Prof. W. E. Hoffmann, Mr. 0. K. Lau, and Dr. F. A. McClure in 1932, and by the Fifth Hainan Island Expedition of the University in 1929, as well as on col- lections made by myself on my trip (34) to the island during the summer of 1935. The remainder of the material studied includes, among others, part of the collection made by Mr. J. Whitehead in 1899, and the specimens collected by Commander G. Ros in the spring of 1936. A list of localities is given at the end, in addition to the map, in order to facilitate the identification of place names used. I am deeply grateful to Professor W. E.

  • Coleoptera: Cerambycidae and Buprestidae) Diversity in Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Singapore, with a Methodological and Biological Review
    Gardens’ Bulletin Singapore 71(Suppl. 1):339-368. 2019 339 doi: 10.26492/gbs71(suppl.1).2019-14 Estimating saproxylic beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae and Buprestidae) diversity in Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Singapore, with a methodological and biological review L.F. Cheong Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum Conservatory Drive, Singapore 117377 [email protected] ABSTRACT. Approximately one third of all forest insect species worldwide depend directly or indirectly on dying or dead wood (i.e., they are saproxylic). They are a highly threatened ecological group but the status of many species remains undocumented. There is an urgent need to develop a better appreciation for the diversity and ecology of saproxylic insects so as to inform management strategies for conserving these organisms in tropical forests. Two of the historically better studied beetle groups, Cerambycidae and Buprestidae, are highlighted with a brief discussion of the methods for studying them and their ecology, and a systematic attempt to survey these two beetle groups in the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Singapore, is described. From a comparison with the historical data, it is inferred that the decline of the saproxylic insect fauna must be happening at a rate that would certainly be considered alarming if only it were more widely noticed. Finally, the implications for overall conservation of the insect fauna and of the reserve are considered. Keywords. Alfred Wallace, Insects, invertebrate conservation, species diversity, woodborers Introduction The comprehensive biodiversity survey of the 163 ha Bukit Timah Nature Reserve (BTNR), Singapore, has been introduced by Chan & Davison (2019). A survey of saproxylic beetles in the nature reserve was included, the most comprehensive such work since the time of A.R.

Istianto, dan Affandi Balai Penelitian Tanaman Buah Tropika, Jl. Raya Solok-Aripan KM 8, Solok 27301 Naskah diterima tanggal 24 November 2009 dan disetujui untuk diterbitkan tanggal 11 Mei 2010 ABSTRAK. Penggerek batang merupakan masalah utama pada budidaya mangga di wilayah rendah basah. Informasi mengenai hama ini masih sangat sedikit, sehingga upaya untuk mendapatkan teknologi pengendalian agak sulit dilakukan. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengumpulkan data mengenai jenis penggerek, tingkat serangan OPT pada beberapa lokasi dan varietas mangga, serta eksplorasi untuk mendapatkan musuh alaminya. Penelitian dilakukan dengan metode survai mulai Januari 2005 sampai dengan Desember 2006. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hama penggerek yang menyerang tanaman mangga di Sumatera Barat dan Sumatera Utara adalah Rhytidodera integra (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) (Kolbe 1886). Selain didominasi jenis hama tersebut, di Kebun Percobaan Balai Penelitian Tanaman Buah Tropika juga ditemukan jenis lain, yaitu spesies Palimna annulata Oliver (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae). Perilaku kedua jenis hama tersebut sama, yaitu menyerang mangga mulai dari pucuk kemudian menuju ke bagian batang utama. Hama penggerek batang menyerang hampir semua varietas yang ditemui dan ditemukan di semua daerah yang disurvai. Tingkat serangan rerata hama penggerek batang di Sumatera Barat 8,83% dan di Sumatera Utara 10,36%. Varietas mangga yang terserang paling parah di Sumatera Barat adalah Cengkir (23,26%) dan di Sumatera Utara adalah Podang (19,01%). Lima jenis agens pengendali biologi hama penggerek batang mangga ditemukan selama pelaksanaan survai. Hasil penelitian ini dapat digunakan sebagai informasi awal untuk menyusun teknologi pengendalian hama penggerek batang mangga.

  • SYNTHESIS and PHYLOGENETIC COMPARATIVE ANALYSES of the CAUSES and CONSEQUENCES of KARYOTYPE EVOLUTION in ARTHROPODS by HEATH B
    SYNTHESIS AND PHYLOGENETIC COMPARATIVE ANALYSES OF THE CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES OF KARYOTYPE EVOLUTION IN ARTHROPODS by HEATH BLACKMON Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON May 2015 Copyright © by Heath Blackmon 2015 All Rights Reserved ii Acknowledgements I owe a great debt of gratitude to my advisor professor Jeffery Demuth. The example that he has set has shaped the type of scientist that I strive to be. Jeff has given me tremendous intelectual freedom to develop my own research interests and has been a source of sage advice both scientific and personal. I also appreciate the guidance, insight, and encouragement of professors Esther Betrán, Paul Chippindale, John Fondon, and Matthew Fujita. I have been fortunate to have an extended group of collaborators including professors Doris Bachtrog, Nate Hardy, Mark Kirkpatrick, Laura Ross, and members of the Tree of Sex Consortium who have provided opportunities and encouragement over the last five years. Three chapters of this dissertation were the result of collaborative work. My collaborators on Chapter 1 were Laura Ross and Doris Bachtrog; both were involved in data collection and writing. My collaborators for Chapters 4 and 5 were Laura Ross (data collection, analysis, and writing) and Nate Hardy (tree inference and writing). I am also grateful for the group of graduate students that have helped me in this phase of my education. I was fortunate to share an office for four years with Eric Watson.
