  • Anisodactylus Binotatus Fabr., a Carabid Beetle New to New Zealand, and a Review of the Exotic Carabid Fauna
    Pacific Insects 5 (4) : 837-847 December 30, 1963 ANISODACTYLUS BINOTATUS FABR., A CARABID BEETLE NEW TO NEW ZEALAND, AND A REVIEW OF THE EXOTIC CARABID FAUNA By R. L. C. Pilgrim DEPT, OF ZOOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF CANTERBURY, NEW ZEALAND Abstract: Anisodactylus binotatus Fabr. 1787 (Col.: Carabidae), an introduced species now established in Canterbury (South Island), New Zealand, is reported for the first time. The literature respecting other carabids sometimes recorded as introduced is reviewed; Ago- nochila binotata (White, 1846), Agonum submetallicum (White, 1846), Hypharpax australasiae (Dejean, 1829) and Pentagonica vittipennis Chaudoir, 1877 are shown to be better considered as endemic to the Australia - New Zealand area. Other species are classed as either native to New Zealand, clearly introduced though not all established, or of doubtful occurrence in New Zealand. Introduction: The Carabidae of New Zealand are predominantly endemic species, but a small number of exotic species has been recorded. This paper reports a further introduc­ tion to the carabid fauna of this country and concludes with a survey of recorded exotic Carabidae in New Zealand. Specimens of the newly-recorded species were collected in domestic gardens in Christ­ church, and were included in a collection sent for identification to Dr. E. B. Britton, British Museum (Nat. Hist.), who kindly drew the writer's attention to the fact that they were so far unreported from New Zealand. Description of adult (from New Zealand specimens) Fig. 1. Anisodactylus binotatus Fabricius, 1787 Color: Head, pronotum, elytra and femora black; tibiae and tarsi light brown to red- black ; palps and antennal segments 1-2 brown, remainder of antennae black; leg spines red-brown; head with small red spot on frons between eyes.

  • Coleoptera: Carabidae) in a Norway Spruce Forest
    Bulletin of the Transilvania University of Braşov Series II: Forestry • Wood Industry • Agricultural Food Engineering • Vol. 9 (58) No.1 - 2016 IMPACT OF CLEARCUTTING ON GROUND BEETLES (COLEOPTERA: CARABIDAE) IN A NORWAY SPRUCE FOREST Jozef MACKO1 Abstract: The research was conducted in Veľká Fatra Mountains, Slovakia. Pitfall traps were installed in the forest and in the glade. Overall, 20 species of beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) were recorded. In the forest, 1532 individuals belonging to 13 species were recorded. Trechus pulpani had the highest abundance in the forest and represents almost half of all individuals. Paradoxically, on the glade, the numbers of species slightly increased, but their abundance was significantly lower. We recorded only 143 individuals belonging to 16 species. Of the forest species, only Carabus violaceus and Pterostichus unctulatus retained a dominant position, but their abundance has decreased by more than 70%. Key words: Carabidae, clear cut, seasonal dynamics. 1. Introduction ground layer from sunlight and, to some extent, from microclimatic alterations and Clear-cutting represents the method of changes in the bottom- and field-layer wood logging in which most of the wood is vegetation. However, the sheltering removed and taken away. Removing the efficiency depends on the number of trees wood causes the decline of microclimate retained, as indicated by the relationship conditions, significant damages of the between generalist Carabid and tree herbaceous cover, and also destructs the density [11]. Many of the environmental surface of soil in which the beetles live and factors are multifaceted and interlinked in hide [3]. The forest stands are defining the overall structural complexity characterized by a relatively high and of insect habitats [13], [18], [15].

SUMMARY Carabus hungaricus Fabricius, 1792 usually inhabits sandy grasslands and dolomitic grass-lands in Hungary. It is listed in the Habitat Directive and it is a characteristic species of the Pannonian biogeographic region. This paper summarizes all available data (literature data, personal communications, all available museum specimens, original research) on the current distribution of Carabus hungaricus in Hungary making use of GIS. The most numerous populations of this carabid beetle live in Pannonic sand steppe biotopes, the most vulnerable of the dolomitic grasslands. In Hungary, Carabus hungaricus is a vulnerable species according to the IUCN criteria. Known habitat types, habitat preferences, co- occurring ground beetle species, and endangering environmental factors are discussed. Keywords : Natura 2000, Carabus hungaricus , nature conservation, distribution, Hungary INTRODUCTION In the Pannonian biogeographical region, Carabus hungaricus Fabricius, 1792 is a species of community interest, whose conservation requires the designation of special areas of conservation.

  • The Ground Beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) of Three Horticultural Farms in Lombardy, Northern Italy ()
    Boll. Zool. agr. Bachic. 31 dicembre 2007 Ser. II, 39 (3): 193-209 D. LUPI, M. COLOMBO, S. FACCHINI The ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) of three horticultural farms in Lombardy, Northern Italy () Abstract - Ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) were surveyed across three hor- ticultural farms, located in a peri-urban area, in the Po plain in Lombardy (Northern Italy) from April 2003 to March 2005. Their biodiversity was estimated using pitfall traps. A total of 29 genera and 39 species were collected. Notes on ants and spiders presence were also furnished. Land use seemed to have a significant effect on the number and composition of the species: catches were lower in the conventional farm and higher in biological farms. Apart from land use, all the species detected have already been recorded as frequent in agricultural fields and are characteristic of lowland agroecosystem in Northern Italy. Riassunto - I Coleotteri Carabidi di tre aziende orticole lombarde Si riferisce di un’indagine biennale (aprile 2003 - marzo 2005) effettuata sui Co- leotteri Carabidi di tre aziende orticole lombarde inserite in un contesto periurbano nella Pianura Padana. La biodiversità di tale famiglia è stata stimata utilizzando trappole a caduta. È stato catturato un totale di 39 specie afferenti a 29 generi. Vengono fornite indicazioni anche dei formicidi e ragni catturati nelle stesse trap- pole. La gestione aziendale sembra aver avuto un ruolo significativo sul numero e sulla composizione delle specie: le catture erano significativamente più basse nell’azienda convenzionale rispetto a quelle biologiche. Indipendentemente dalla gestione aziendale le specie catturate sono comunque comuni nei campi coltivati e caratteristiche degli agroecosistemi del nord Italia.
