L ARIVIÈRE & A. L AROCHELLE Abstract: Nineteen genera and thirty-nine species of Aradidae have been described from New Zealand, most of which are endemic (12 genera, 38 species). An overview of all genera and an identification key to subfamilies, tribes, and genera are presented for the first time. Species included in each genus are list- ed for New Zealand. Concise generic descriptions, illustrations emphasizing key diagnostic features, colour photographs representing each genus, an overview of the most relevant literature, and notes on distribution are also given. The biology and diversification of New Zealand aradids, and their affinities with neighbouring faunas are briefly discussed. Key words: Aradidae, biogeography, Hemiptera, New Zealand, taxonomy.

Los Siphonaptera son insectos parásitos de vertebrados endotermos, aves y mamíferos, parasitando en mayor medida al orden Rodentia; se encuentran distribuidos ampliamente en todas las zonas del mundo, excepto en la Antártida por lo que se le considera un grupo cosmopolita. Es considerado un grupo diverso, se han reportado para todo el mundo alrededor de 2 575 especies de pulgas. En México existen 172 especies, que pertenecen a 8 familias, ésto correspondería al 6.8% del total de las pulgas en todo el mundo. Las familias Ceratophyllidae (74 especies) y Ctenophthalmidae (45 especies) son las más abundantes en el país. Éste es un grupo de importancia sanitaria ya que son capaces de transmitir enfermedades como la peste, tifus y helmintiasis, entre otras. Palabras clave: Siphonaptera, parásitos, pulgas, México. Abstract. Siphonaptera are insect parasites of endotherm vertebrates, birds and mammals, occurring more abundantly in the Order Rodentia. Fleas are distributed widely in the world, except in Antartica, and are considered cosmopolites. This group of insects is diverse, with 2 575 species reported worldwide. Mexico has 172 species that belong to 8 families; representing 6.8% of the world’s flea fauna.

Project Funding This project was funded by the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission. 3 Executive Summary Pacific Biodiversity Institute (PBI) conducted a rare plant and vegetation survey of Riverside State Park (RSP) for the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission (WSPRC). RSP is located in Spokane County, Washington. A large portion of the park is located within the City of Spokane. RSP extends along both sides of the Spokane River and includes upland areas on the basalt plateau above the river terraces. The park also includes the lower portion of the Little Spokane River and adjacent uplands. The park contains numerous trails, campgrounds and other recreational facilities. The park receives a tremendous amount of recreational use from the nearby population.

Manuscripts are peer-reviewed to ensure that the information is scientifi cally credible, technically accurate, appropriately written for the intended audience, and is designed and published in a professional manner. The Natural Resource Technical Report series is used to disseminate the peer-reviewed results of scientifi c studies in the physical, biological, and social sciences for both the advancement of science and the achievement of the National Park Service’s mission. The reports provide contributors with a forum for displaying comprehensive data that are often deleted from journals because of page limitations.

  • Example Insect Natural History Data
    Example Insect Natural History Data These data were assembled by participants of a workshop held at the University of Florida from May 30 to June 1 of 2018. The data cover all five major insect orders (Coleoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera) and represent most of the various kinds of natural history information found on insect specimen labels. The data also include representative natural history information from literature sources and online databases. For more information about how these data were assembled and why, see Stucky et al. (2019) __________. Except for works in the public domain, data use licenses are as specified by the original data owners. Coleoptera Example 1 Taxonomy: Coleoptera: Buprestidae: Acmaeodera sp.
