Rezaei, M. Fallahzadeh* Department of Entomology, Jahrom branch, Islamic Azad University, Jahrom, Iran. *Corresponding author, E-mail: [email protected] The data on digger wasp (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae) collected using Malaise traps from Fars province in southern Iran are given. A total of 45 species and sub- species of 23 genera belonging to 5 subfamilies: Astatinae (three species in one genus), Bembicinae (five species in four genera), Crabroninae (26 species in 11 genera), Pemphredoninae (six species in five genera) and Philanthinae (five species in two genera) are herein listed. Of these, five species and one subspecies are newly recorded from Iran. In addition, seven species are new records for Fars province. The greatest percentage of specimens is that of the subfamily Crabroninae, with 63.6% captured material. KEY WORDS: Hymenoptera, wasps, Malaise trap, fauna, new records, Iran. Ш. Резаи, М.

Shropshire Entomology – April 2011 (No.3) A bi-annual newsletter focussing upon the study of insects and other invertebrates in the county of Shropshire (V.C. 40) April 2010 (Vol. 3) Editor: Pete Boardman [email protected] ~ Welcome ~ Welcome to the 3rd edition of the Shropshire Entomology newsletter. By the time you receive this the recording season should be under way and hopefully those cold and miserable winter days will be but a mere memory. Also underway will be the Invertebrate challenge programme of training days, a three year project funded by The Heritage Lottery Fund and The Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, which will be running around 100 events in total concentrating on the identification of some of Shropshire’s most under-recorded and under-studied invertebrates. It will also enable Shropshire Entomology to continue for the next three years, as well as enable my involvement with the SEDN as manager of the invertebrate database. Many thanks once more to everyone who has contributed to this edition. It can only function as a ‘newsletter’ if people contribute articles of news and views, so please do consider submitting articles that relate to entomology in Shropshire or entomology in general. The deadline for submission of content for Vol. 4 is Friday 16th September 2011. Please feel free to pass this newsletter on to anyone you feel might be interested in it. Note – past newsletters will soon be able to be downloaded as PDF’s from www.invertebrate-challenge.org.uk. ~ Contents ~ The Keeled Skimmer Orthetrum coerulescens -
Insects of Ojibway Prairie, a Southern Ontario Tallgras Prairie
199 Chapter 9 Insects of Ojibway Prairie, a Southern Ontario Tallgrass Prairie Steve M. Paiero and Stephen A. Marshall Department of Environmental Biology, University of Guelph Guelph, Ontario, Canada Paul D. Pratt Windsor Department of Parks Windsor, Ontario, Canada Matthias Buck Department of Environmental Biology, University of Guelph Guelph, Ontario, Canada Abstract. This chapter describes the insect fauna of Ojibway Prairie, a tallgrass prairie complex in southern Ontario, highlighting the tallgrass-dependent and tallgrass-associated species among the over 2,000 insect species found there so far. The presence of tallgrass-dependent and tallgrass-associated species reflects Ojibway Prairie’s status as a fragment of a formerly more continuous grassland and thus supports the prairie peninsula hypothesis. The chapter includes a discussion of insect species associated with other southern Ontario tallgrass prairie sites and compares these species with those found in Ojibway Prairie. Also discussed are rare species found at Ojibway Prairie but not associated specifically with tallgrass habitats. Forty-four insect species new to Canada or new to Ontario (1 Orthoptera, 3 Hemiptera, 10 Coleoptera, 16 Diptera, and 14 Hymenoptera) are recorded from Ojibway Prairie. Résumé. Ce chapitre décrit l’entomofaune de la prairie Ojibway, un complexe de prairies à herbes hautes du sud de l’Ontario, en portant une attention particulière aux espèces dépendantes des herbes hautes ou associées à ces dernières et qui sont au nombre des quelque 2 000 espèces d’insectes recensées jusqu’ici à cet endroit. La présence d’insectes dépendants des herbes hautes ou associés à ces dernières est un reflet de l’état actuel de la prairie Ojibway, qui n’est plus qu’un fragment d’une prairie autrefois plus continue, et vient appuyer l’hypothèse de la « péninsule de prairie ». -

I wish to thank Dr. Ron Hartman for supplying photocopies of herbarium specimen labels from the University of Wyoming Rocky Mountain Herbarium. Numerous other specimen labels were obtained through searches of on-line databases, so thanks go to those universities, botanic gardens, and agencies (cited in this document) for having such convenient systems established. I would like to thank local Region 2 botanists Bonnie Heidel of the Wyoming Natural Heritage Program, and Katherine Zacharkevics and Beth Burkhart of the Black Hills National Forest for supplying information.

Bees and Wasps of the East Sussex South Downs
A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 Abstract For six years between 2003 and 2008, over 100 site visits were made to fifteen chalk grassland and chalk heath sites within the South Downs of Vice-county 14 (East Sussex). This produced a list of 227 bee and wasp species and revealed the comparative frequency of different species, the comparative richness of different sites and provided a basic insight into how many of the species interact with the South Downs at a site and landscape level. The study revealed that, in addition to the character of the semi-natural grasslands present, the bee and wasp fauna is also influenced by the more intensively-managed agricultural landscapes of the Downs, with many species taking advantage of blossoming hedge shrubs, flowery fallow fields, flowery arable field margins, flowering crops such as Rape, plus plants such as buttercups, thistles and dandelions within relatively improved pasture. Some very rare species were encountered, notably the bee Halictus eurygnathus Blüthgen which had not been seen in Britain since 1946. This was eventually recorded at seven sites and was associated with an abundance of Greater Knapweed. The very rare bees Anthophora retusa (Linnaeus) and Andrena niveata Friese were also observed foraging on several dates during their flight periods, providing a better insight into their ecology and conservation requirements. -
The European Ant Hunters Tracheliodes Curvitarsus and T. Varus (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae): Taxonomy, Species Discrimination, Distribution, and Biology
Myrmecologische Nachrichten 6 39 - 47 Wien, Dezember 2004 The European ant hunters Tracheliodes curvitarsus and T. varus (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae): taxonomy, species discrimination, distribution, and biology Herbert ZETTEL, Toshko LJUBOMIROV, Florian M. STEINER, Birgit C. SCHLICK-STEINER, Giselher GRABENWEGER & Heinz WIESBAUER Abstract Crabro varus PANZER, 1799 has been originally described from Austria. After the type material has been destroyed, species identity was controversal. Most recently (BITSCH & LECLERCQ 1993, LECLERCQ 1993), the taxon has been interpreted as a species of the ant hunters, genus Tracheliodes, based on a single female collected in Corse, France. New records of Tracheliodes varus from Lower Austria confirm this interpretation; in order to stabilize the species identity, we designated a neotype from the type area, Austria. Tracheliodes varus is most similar to T. curvitarsus (HERRICH-SCHAEFFER, 1841). We present diagnoses and illustrations, describe the variation of colour patterns and give new information on the discrimination of the females of these two sibling species. New records from Austria are reported for Tracheliodes curvitarsus after more than 100 years, and for T. varus after more than 200 years. Trache- liodes curvitarsus is recorded for the first time from Bulgaria and the Czech Republic, T. varus for the first time from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Bulgaria. In Laxenburg, Lower Austria, females of T. curvitarsus and T. varus have been found syntopic, both of them hunting workers of the dolichoderine ant Liometopum microcephalum (PANZER, 1798). Based on film sequences, we present first observations on the hunting behaviour of T. varus. Key words: crabronid wasp, sibling species, behaviour, faunistics, neotype designation, Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Liometopum microcephalum Dr. -
