Towards simultaneous analysis of molecular and morphological data in Hymenoptera. Ð Zoologica Scripta 28, 251±260. Principles and methods of simultaneous analysis in cladistics are reviewed, and the first, preliminary, analysis of combined molecular and morphological data on higher level relationships in Hymenoptera is presented to exemplify these principles. The morphological data from Ronquist et al.

Journal of Wildlife and Biodiversity, 5(2),88 -98. doi: 10.22120/jwb.2020.135814.1183 Abstract The paddy field ecosystem is the primary habitat for insects that utilize the paddy crop as their food source from the seedlings to the harvesting phases. The diversity and abundance of insects vary in this ecosystem and the growth stages of the paddy plantation. In the present study, the insect diversity in paddy fields at Uthamapalayam, Theni district, Tamil Nadu, India were surveyed fortnight from December 2019 to February 2020. A total of 587 insects belonging to 26 species and nine orders, viz., Coleoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, Mantodea, Odonata, Orthoptera, and Thysanoptera were recorded. The most abundant order was Orthoptera and Coleoptera, and the least one was Thysanoptera. The diversity index represented by the Shannon- Weiner index ranged from 0.07 to 0.23, and the overall index was 1.26, and diversity evenness ranged between 0.26 and 0.42.

A total of 11 species of wasps and bees belonging to 6 families were observed and identified during the study from both the sites. 9 of them were identified up to species level and 2 up to genus level. Out of 11 species identified, 4 were of bees and rest 7 were of wasps. Species were also classified as abundant, occasional and rare based on field observations. 4 species of them were abundant, 4 species were occasional and 3 species were rare. Results of college campus show that, among bees, Family Apidae was most dominant with highest number of individuals and Apis dorsata Fabricius was most abundant; and among wasps, Family Vespidae was most abundant and Polistes hebraeus was most abundant species.

Gess Department of Entomology, Albany Museum and Rhodes University, Grahamstown Pretoria 2014 SANBI Biodiversity Series The South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) was established on 1 Sep- tember 2004 through the signing into force of the National Environmental Manage- ment: Biodiversity Act (NEMBA) No. 10 of 2004 by President Thabo Mbeki. The Act expands the mandate of the former National Botanical Institute to include respon- sibilities relating to the full diversity of South Africa’s fauna and flora, and builds on the internationally respected programmes in conservation, research, education and visitor services developed by the National Botanical Institute and its predecessors over the past century. The vision of SANBI: Biodiversity richness for all South Africans. SANBI’s mission is to champion the exploration, conservation, sustainable use, appreciation and enjoyment of South Africa’s exceptionally rich biodiversity for all people.

Vol. 5, No. 2, June 2010__________ A BRIEF STUDY ON THE SCOLIIDAE IN IRAN (INSECTA: HYMENOPTERA) Majid Fallahzadeh* and Nazila Saghaei** * Department of Entomology, Islamic Azad University, Jahrom Branch, Fars, IRAN. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] ** Department of Plant Protection, Islamic Azad University, Marvdasht Branch, Fars, IRAN. [Fallahzadeh, M. & Saghaei, N. 2010. A brief study on the Scoliidae (Insecta: Hymenoptera) in Iran. Munis Entomology & Zoology, 5 (2): 792-795] ABSTRACT: The present paper mentions 9 species and subspecies belonging to 4 genera of the family Scoliidae (Insecta: Hymenoptera). They were collected from different parts of Fars province in the south of Iran. Of these, Dasyscolia ciliata ciliata (Fabricius, 1787) is new to the fauna of Iran and Near East. Additionally 4 species were recorded for the first time from Fars province. Synonyms and distributional data for each species are included. KEY WORDS: Distribution, Fars, Fauna, Hymenoptera, Iran, Scoliidae. The family Scoliidae belongs to the superfamily Vespoidea and contains approximately about 560 valid species, 220 subspecies distributed among 43 valid genera, 28 subgenera and 2 subfamilies (Osten, 2005b). They are solitary insect; both male and female are winged. They tend to be black, often marked with yellow or orange, and their wing tips are distinctively corrugated. The larvae are ectoparasitoids of the grubs of Scarabaeidae (Esmaili & Rastegar, 1954; Osten, 2000; Osten et al., 2003). The faunistic and taxonomic papers treated the family in Iran have been conducted by Tkalcu (1987), Esmaili & Rastegar (1954), Chahartaghi Abineh (2002). The Scoliid fauna of West Palaearctic was monographed by Osten (2000), who also provided geographic distribution and keys, for all taxa.

    GEO BON OPEN SCIENCE CONFERENCE & ALL HANDS MEETING 2020 06–10 July 2020, 100 % VIRTUAL Book of Abstracts Keynote 1 IPBES: Science and evidence for biodiversity policy and action Anne Larigauderie Executive Secretary of IPBES This talk will start by a presentation of the achievements of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform for Biodiversity (IPBES) during its first work programme, starting with the release of its first assessment, on Pollinators, Pollination and Food Production in 2016, and culminating with the release of the first IPBES Global Assessment of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in 2019. The talk will highlights some of the findings of the IPBES Global Assessment, including trends in the contributions of nature to people over the past 50 years, direct and indirect causes of biodiversity loss, and progress against the Aichi Biodiversity Targets, and some of the Sustainable Development Goals, ending with options for action. The talk will then briefly present the new IPBES work programme up to 2030, and its three new topics, and end with considerations regarding GEO BON, and the need to establish an operational global observing system for biodiversity to support the implementation of the post 2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. 1 Keynote 2 Securing Critical Natural Capital: Science and Policy Frontiers for Essential Ecosystem Service Variables Rebecca Chaplin-Kramer Stanford University, USA As governments, business, and lending institutions are increasingly considering investments in natural capital as one strategy to meet their operational and development goals sustainably, the importance of accurate, accessible information on ecosystem services has never been greater. However, many ecosystem services are highly localized, requiring high-resolution and contextually specific information—which has hindered the delivery of this information at the pace and scale at which it is needed.

The agriculture development in the Suez Canal region is receiving a great deal of attention in Egypt, thus, the diversity of solitary bees are essential for high quality production of seeds, vegetables, and fruit. The objective of this study was to evaluate the biodiversity of solitary bee populations around the Canal region. About 900 - 1000 specimens of bees were collected from different locations of the Ismailia, Suez, and Sinai Governorates. Fifty-five species of bees were identified. With the exception of Melittidae family, all the bee families were present in the Canal region. The total number of species for each family were 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15 species for Andrenidae, Colletidae, Apidae, Halictidae, and Megachilidae, respectively. Lasioglossum mandibularie (Morawitz, 1866) is a newly recorded species collected from Egypt. In the Suez Canal region, the most abundant species found with large populations were Andrena ovatula ssp. ovatula (Kirby, 1802), Ceratina tarsata Morawitz, 1872, and Colletes lacunatus Dours, 1872.
