  • First Comprehensive Study of a Giant Among the Insects, Titanus Giganteus: Basic Facts from Its Biochemistry, Physiology, and Anatomy

Previous papers have mostly described Titanus morphology or taxonomy, but studies concerning its anatomy and physiology are largely absent. Thus, we employed microscopic, physiological, and analytical methods to partially fill this gap. Our study focused on a detailed analysis of the antennal sensilla, where coeloconic sensilla, grouped into irregularly oval fields, and sensilla trichoidea were found. Further, the inspection of the internal organs showed apparent degeneration of the gut and almost total absence of fat body. The gut was already empty; however, certain activity of digestive enzymes was recorded.

SCARAB BEETLES IN HUMAN CULTURE BRETT C. RATCLIFFE Systematics Research Collections W-436 Nebraska Hall University of Nebraska Lincoln, NE 68588-0514, U.S.A. [email protected] Abstract The use of scarab beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) by primarily pre- and non-industrial peoples throughout the world is reviewed. These uses consist of (1) religion and folklore, (2) folk medicine, (3) food, and (4) regalia and body ornamentation. The use of scarabs in religion or cosmology, once widespread in ancient Egypt, exists only rarely today in other cultures. Scarabs have a minor role in folk medicine today although they may have been more important in the past. The predominant utilization of these beetles today, and probably in the past as well, is as food with emphasis on the larval stage. Lastly, particularly large or brightly colored scarabs (or their parts) are used (mostly in the New World) to adorn the body or as regalia.

    Biological Diversity of the NewsletterNewsletter Guiana Shield Program june 2005 - issue 1 From the Director After 18 years as the Director of the Biological Diversity of the Guiana Shield Program (BDG) the urge to know what had happened to all those who had passed through our doors grew to alarming proportions. Eventually Carol Kelloff, Tom Hollowell and I decided to try to track down everyone who had gone to the countries of the Guiana Shield in some capacity for BDG or with BDG expeditions and anyone who had worked in our offices at the NMNH in Washington, D.C. What started out as a fun thing to do quickly became a huge task, one that Carol took most of the responsibility for bringing to completion. Some people were easy to find because we work with them regularly or see them at meetings; others are long gone but we know where they are, and still others are ‘missing in action’. We all spent time on the web (thanks Google) trying to track down former friends and colleagues. By the time we decided “enough” we had spent a year working on the project and found a large percentage of our friends. I have read these listings many times and I continue to be amazed by the wonderful and diverse group of people we have worked with over the years. My thanks to everyone, we miss you and hope you will continue to keep in touch. We will be doing another one of these next year so if you have additional information or if you want to add people or photos please send them along and we will store them for the next time.
