Psocid News S1.Pages ISSN 1348-1770 (online edition) Sapporo, Japan Psocid News The Psocidologists' Newsletter Special Issue I (Nov 30, 2016) COUNTRY CHECKLISTS OF THE PSOCOPTERA SPECIES OF THE WORLD, EXTRACTED FROM LIENHARD & SMITHERS, 2002: "PSOCOPTERA (INSECTA) – WORLD CATALOGUE AND BIBLIOGRAPHY" Charles LIENHARD (Geneva Natural History Museum, Switzerland) E-mail: [email protected] INTRODUCTION Geographical species checklists for about 170 political units (countries) or archipelagoes, sometimes isolated islands, are presented here, based on the data published in the taxonomic part (pp. 1-492) of the 2002 World Catalogue by Lienhard & Smithers ["Psocoptera (Insecta) - World Catalogue and Bibliography", Instrumenta Biodiversitatis, vol. 5, 2002, Muséum d'histoire naturelle, Genève, xli+745 pp. ISBN 2-88139-009-9]. Only published distributional records are taken into consideration for these checklists; bibliographical references to all records are listed for each species in the Catalogue and the complete bibliographical data can be found in the World Bibliography published in the above mentioned volume (pp. 493-664). Published records of material not identified to species level are presented in square brackets. A special list of published palaeontological records is also added (see remark below). If you would like to update any of these checklists and the corresponding bibliography (new records and nomenclatural or taxonomic changes) you can search the Additions and Corrections to the World Catalogue published in Psocid News (http://hdl.handle.net/ 2115/35519). Changes published in Psocid News (no. 4-18) under the heading "Corrections to Lienhard & Smithers, 2002" have already been integrated in the following checklists.

Analyses of these data produced trees that largely supported the traditional classification; however, monophyly of the infraorder Psocathropetae (= Psyllipsocidae + Prionoglarididae) was not recovered. Instead, the family Psyllipso- cidae was recovered as the sister taxon to the infraorder Atropetae (= Lepidopsocidae + Trogiidae + Psoquillidae), and the Prionoglarididae was recovered as sister to all other families in the suborder.

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000).

ANDREWS EXPERIMENTAL FOREST, WESTERN CASCADE MOUNTAINS, OREGON: A SURVEY OF ARTHROPODS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CANOPY OF OLD-GROWTH Pseudotsuga Menziesii D.J. Voegtlin FORUT REJEARCH LABORATORY SCHOOL OF FORESTRY OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY Since 1941, the Forest Research Laboratory--part of the School of Forestry at Oregon State University in Corvallis-- has been studying forests and why they are like they are. A staff or more than 50 scientists conducts research to provide information for wise public and private decisions on managing and using Oregons forest resources and operating its wood-using industries. Because of this research, Oregons forests now yield more in the way of wood products, water, forage, wildlife, and recreation. Wood products are harvested, processed, and used more efficiently. Employment, productivity, and profitability in industries dependent on forests also have been strengthened. And this research has helped Oregon to maintain a quality environment for its people. Much research is done in the Laboratorys facilities on the campus. But field experiments in forest genetics, young- growth management, forest hydrology, harvesting methods, and reforestation are conducted on 12,000 acres of School forests adjacent to the campus and on lands of public and private cooperating agencies throughout the Pacific Northwest. With these publications, the Forest Research Laboratory supplies the results of its research to forest land owners and managers, to manufacturers and users of forest products, to leaders of government and industry, and to the general public. The Author David J. Voegtlin is Assistant Taxonomist at the Illinois Natural History Survey, Champaign, Illinois.

    NEGLECTED INSECTS IN BEDFORDSHIRE Beds Natural History Society Conference PSOCOPTERA – BARKFLIES by Alan R. Outen & Ian K. Dawson PSOCOPTERA Barkflies and Booklice (also sometimes referred to as Psocids) Small insects (1.5 – 7mm) with a domed postclypeus (the area at the front of the head between antennae and mouth); long filiform antennae; simple wing venation with two ‘triangular’ cells at tip of forewing; tendency to run rather than fly. Winged barkflies usually hold their wings tent-wise over their abdomens like miniature lacewings. These species can be confused with Psyllids but can be distinguished by gently touching them – psyllids jump away, barkflies don’t. Stenopsocus immaculatus – a common species in Beds. Note the strongly domed postclypeus and long filiform antennae Barkflies - Variations on a theme Some species don’t have full-sized (macropterous) wings but have them much reduced (brachypterous) or absent (apterous). They can be confused with springtails (which however will jump away when touched). Cerobasis guestfalica has been Embidopsocus enderleini recorded from several Beds sites An uncommon species not (yet) found in Beds Available Resources • Excellent British Barkflies website which via the gallery has been brilliant in facilitating identification of this group making them accessible to all. • 2005 RES Handbook is also very good. • Keith Alexander who runs the National Recording Scheme is very helpful.

Adult integumental morphology of the suborder Psocomorpha (Psocodea: 'Psocoptera') was examined, and homologies and transformation series of characters throughout the suborder and Psocoptera were discussed. These examinations formed the basis of the recent morphology-based cladistic analysis of the Psocomorpha (Yoshizawa, 2002, Zool. J. Linn. Soc. 136: 371–400). Author's address. Systematic Entomology, Graduate School of Agriculture, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, 060-8589 Japan. E-mail. [email protected]. 1 INTRODUCTION Psocoptera (psocids, booklice or barklice) are a paraphyletic assemblage of non-parasitic members of the order Psocodea (Lyal, 1985; Yoshizawa & Johnson, 2003, 2005; Johnson et al., 2004), containing about 5500 described species (Lienhard, 2003). They are about 1 to 10 mm in length and characterized by well-developed postclypeus, long antennae, pick-like lacinia, reduced prothorax, well-developed pterothorax, etc. Phylogenetically, Psocoptera compose a monophyletic group (the order Psocodea) with parasitic lice ('Phtiraptera': biting lice and sucking lice) (Lyal, 1985; Yoshizawa & Johnson, 2003, in press; Johnson et al., 2004). The order is related to Thysanoptera (thrips) and Hemiptera (bugs, cicadas, etc.) (Yoshizawa & Saigusa, 2001, 2003, but see also Yoshizawa & Johnson, 2005).

    272 HAMPSHIRE FIELD CLUB INSECTS IN HAMPSHIRE, 1933 By F. H. HAINES HE summer of 1933, remarkable for drought and the amount of long-continued sunshine and heat, reacted on insects, T especially Lepidoptera, on the whole favourably. Times of appearance were very early, migrants numerous, and species normally single or double-brooded often produced an extra brood. But many, such as dragonflies, were soon over. February was wet, April dry, but June had one very heavy storm here (1.59ms. in 24 hours). The absence of rain was particularly noticeable later in-the year : in August, November and December. Orthoptera (Earwigs, Cockroaches, Crickets and Grass­ hoppers). The species of Ectobia were abundant and early, as was Nemobius sylvestris F., and grasshoppers : Pholidoptera griseoaptera De G. in the New Forest in August, Metrioptera albopunctata Gz. near Ringwood, M. brachyptera L., Conocephalus dorsalis 'Latr., Meconema thalassinum De G. and Leptophyes punctatissima Bosc. in the Forest. Tetrix subulatus L. was common, and hibernated T. bipunctatus L. was met with here very early. Goytphocerus maculatus Thunb. was everywhere in the wild, dry places around through summer and autumn, its colour, as usual, varying endlessly with that of its surroundings. The large Mecostethus grossus L., not uncommon in the forest bogs, and usually on Linwood Bog, was strangely, conditions being so favourable, not found here this year. Omocestus rufipes Zett. was not nearly so common on the heath as was O. viridulus L. on the grass. It was still abundant, basking in the sun on the woodwork of the house here, and else­ where, late in October.

    WILDLIFE IN COMMON PROJECT SURVEY Wildlife Site Survey Form (Ref. No. CWS 1226) Site Name: Crostwight Heath Parish: Honing/Witton Grid reference: TG 395302 Area: 17.0 ha District: North Norfolk Survey date: 08/08/18 Registered Common Number: CL 4 Habitat map: 1 WILDLIFE IN COMMON PROJECT SURVEY Habitat description (refer to the annotated map) Compartment A: South Woodland: Mixed Semi-natural Woodland This is an attractive woodland primarily consisting of oak (Quercus robur), downy birch (Betula pubescens) and planted Scott’s pine (Pinus sylvestris) on acid, sandy/gravelly soil on an undulating terrain. The overall impression is of a natural area, with a very varied and visually appealing terrain and vegetation structure. Much of the oak is low-branched and wide-spreading; there are some notably large birch. The woodland also includes sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa), sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus), beech (Fagus sylvatica), and rowan (Sorbus aucuparia), while aspen (Populus tremula) is a feature, suckering widely along Heath Road. There are some interesting large veteran oaks on an old wood bank. The shrub layer comprises mainly small birch, occasional holly (Ilex aquifolium) (some large), hazel (Corylus avellana), hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna), elder (Sambucus nigra), and bramble (Rubus fruticosus agg). Rarities include the unusual alder buckthorn (Frangula alnus). There are encouraging signs of natural regeneration, with plenty of young birch, holly, rowan, hazel, and sweet chestnut. There is plentiful fallen wood. Broad-buckler fern (Dryopteris dilatata) dominates as ground cover in places, with bracken (Pteridium aquilinum) the main ground flora in other areas. Honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum) also acts as ground-cover as well as ascending as a climber, with the ground being bare (with deep leaf litter) in denser shade.
