Sharbot Lake Provincial Park SHARBOT LAKE PROVINCIAL PARK One Malaise trap was deployed at Sharbot Lake Provincial Park in 2014 (44.77952, -76.72379, 199m ASL; Figure 1). This trap collected arthropods for twenty weeks from May 8 – September 24, 2014. All 10 Malaise trap samples were processed using the bulk sample analysis protocol. A total of 2672 BINs were obtained. Over half the BINs captured were flies (Diptera), followed by bees, ants and wasps (Hymenoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and beetles (Coleoptera; Figure 2). In total, 640 arthropod species were named, representing 26.8% of the BINs from the site (Appendix 1). All the BINs were assigned at least Figure 1. Malaise trap deployed at Sharbot Lake to family, and 63% were assigned to a genus Provincial Park in 2014. (Appendix 2). Specimens collected from Sharbot Lake represent 188 different families and 679 genera. Figure 2. Taxonomy breakdown of BINs captured in the Malaise trap at Sharbot Lake. APPENDIX 1.

  • SECUENCIA DE ARRIBO DE COLEÓPTEROS EN ÁRBOLES DE Pinus Montezumae Lamb
    Reducción en riqueza de especies arbóreas por incendios en la reserva Selva El Ocote, Chiapas SECUENCIA DE ARRIBO DE COLEÓPTEROS EN ÁRBOLES DE Pinus montezumae Lamb. DAÑADOS POR INCENDIOS Juana Fonseca González1, Celina Llanderal Cázares2, David Cibrián Tovar3, Armando Equihua Martínez2 y Héctor Manuel de los Santos Posadas2 RESUMEN En los pinos dañados por incendios, varias especies de coleópteros son atraídas por los compuestos volátiles que desprenden los tejidos dañados. Algunos insectos dependen de este factor para su supervivencia debido a que los árboles siniestrados proveen el sustrato para su reproducción y ofrecen menos resistencia a su ataque, al tener presión osmótica inferior. El presente estudio se realizó con la finalidad de conocer la diversidad y la secuencia de llegada de coleópteros a Pinus montezumae afectados por incendios, que se capturaron mediante la aplicación de un pegamento en los troncos. El registro se hizo por fecha de recolecta, se calculó la abundancia relativa de cada grupo y se ajustó a una curva de regresión logística para determinar diferencias entre su patrón de acumulación. Se obtuvieron especímenes de las familias Curculionidae, Buprestidae, Cleridae, Salpingidae, Elateridae, Colydiidae, Bostrichidae y Staphylinidae, la tercera y la primera fueron las más abundantes, 47.5 y 29.2%, respectivamente. De acuerdo a sus hábitos alimentarios, se clasificaron en descortezadores primarios, descortezadores secundarios, barrenadores de madera, depredadores e insectos asociados. Sólo se observaron diferencias significativas entre el patrón de acumulación de descortezadores primarios y barrenadores, con respecto al conjunto de descortezadores, los cuales tienen su máxima acumulación a finales de marzo, mientras que los barrenadores, a principios de abril.

K1P 6P4, CANADA;[email protected] 3Department of Recent Invertebrates, Virginia Museum of Natural History, 21 Starling Avenue, Martinsville, Virginia 24112; [email protected] ABSTRACT: One-hundred thirty-five taxa (130 identified to species), in at least 97 genera, of weevils (superfamily Curculionoidea) were documented during a 21-year field survey (1998–2018) of the George Washington Memorial Parkway national park site that spans parts of Fairfax and Arlington Counties in Virginia. Twenty-three species documented from the parkway are first records for the state. Of the nine capture methods used during the survey, Malaise traps were the most successful. Periods of adult activity, based on dates of capture, are given for each species. Relative abundance is noted for each species based on the number of captures. Sixteen species adventive to North America are documented from the parkway, including three species documented for the first time in the state. Range extensions are documented for two species. Images of five species new to Virginia are provided. Keywords: beetles, biodiversity, Malaise traps, national parks, new state records, Potomac Gorge. INTRODUCTION This study provides a preliminary list of the weevils of the superfamily Curculionoidea within the George Washington Memorial Parkway (GWMP) national park site in northern Virginia.

F. México. E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract A morphology-based phylogenetic analysis of the family Phengodidae (Coleoptera) is given. Thirty-six terminals, six gen- era and 60 morphological characters are included. To test the monophyly of phengodid subfamilies the terminals that be- long to superfamily Elateroidea Drilocephalus Pic (Dascillidae), Pterotus LeConte (incertae sedis), Vesperelater Costa (Elateridae), Photinus Laporte (Lampyridae), Pseudotelegeusis Wittmer and Telegeusis Horn (Telegeusidae) are used as outgroups, with the remaining 30 terminals corresponding to 26 specific and four generic levels. The matrix was analyzed under a parsimony criterion under a heuristic search performed in TNT v. 2.0. One parsimonious tree was obtained. In this study two principal groups are recognized in the family Phengodidae. This study suggests for the first time a close rela- tionship between the Telegeusidae and the subfamily Penicillophorinae. Key words: Morphology, Bioluminescence, Elateroidea, relationships Resumen Se presenta un análisis filogenético morfológico preliminar de la familia Phengodidae (Coleoptera).

  • Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
    Systematics, Morphology, and Evolution of the New World Conoderinae Schoenherr, 1833 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) by Salvatore Anzaldo A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved June 2019 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Nico Franz, Chair Emilia Martins Kathleen Pigg Christian Rabeling ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2019 ABSTRACT Weevils are one of the most diverse groups of animals with thousands of species suspected to remain undiscovered. The Conoderinae Schoenherr, 1833 are no exception, being especially diverse and unknown in the Neotropics where they are recognizable for their unique behaviors and color patterns among weevils. Despite these peculiarities, the group has received little attention from researchers in the past century, with almost nothing known about their evolution. This dissertation presents a series of three studies that begin to elucidate the evolutionary history of these bizarre and fascinating weevils, commencing with an overview of their biology and classificatory history (Chapter 1). Chapter 2 presents the first formal cladistic analysis on the group to redefine the New World tribes Lechriopini Lacordaire, 1865 and Zygopini, Lacordaire, 1865. An analysis of 75 taxa (65 ingroup) with 75 morphological characters yielded six equally parsimonious trees and synapomorphies that are used to reconstitute the tribes, resulting in the transfer of sixteen genera from the Zygopini to the Lechriopini and four generic transfers out of the Lechriopini to elsewhere in the Conoderinae. Chapter 3 constitutes a taxonomic revision of the genus Trichodocerus Chevrolat, 1879, the sole genus in the tribe Trichodocerini Champion, 1906, which has had an uncertain phylogenetic placement in the Curculionidae but has most recently been treated in the Conoderinae.

  • Macropogon Piceus (Coleoptera: Artematopodidae) in the Maritime Provinces of Canada Christopher G
    J. Acad. Entomol. Soc. 6: 9-11 (2010) NOTE Macropogon piceus (Coleoptera: Artematopodidae) in the Maritime Provinces of Canada Christopher G. Majka Artematopodidae is family of beetles within the basal lineage of Elateroidea. There are approximately 60 species in seven genera in the world. Three genera, Allopogonia Cockerell, Eurypogon Motschulsky, and Macropogon Motschulsky are found in North America (Young 2002). Representatives of the latter two are found in Canada (Bousquet 1991). Macropogon consists of three species: Macropogon sequoiae Hopping found in California; Macropogon testaceipennis Motschulsky found along the Pacific coast; and the transcontinental Macropogon piceus LeConte (Young 2002). While Macropogon piceus was reported from New Brunswick by Bousquet (1991), it has never been recorded from Nova Scotia. The present paper provides records of its occurrence there. In the context of biodiversity studies on Coleoptera, a number of collections in Atlantic Canada were examined for specimens of Artematopodidae. Abbreviations (following Evenhuis 2009) of collections referred to in this study are: CBU Cape Breton University, Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada CNC Canadian National Collection of Insects, Arachnids, and Nematodes, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada NSNR Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources, Shubenacadie, Nova Scotia, Canada NSMC Nova Scotia Museum, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada The number of specimens and the collection abbreviation are enclosed in parentheses. Artematopodids superficially resemble pubescent click beetles (Elateridae) (Fig. 1), however, their prosternal keel is less developed than in elaterids, and they lack their frontal ridge. A characteristic feature of the family is a tongue-like process located on the ventral surface of the elytral apex (Fig. 2) (Young 2002).

Beetle species differed markedly in their responses. In preference assays, two chrysomelid beetle species (Calligrapha multipunctata bigsbyana and Plagiodera versicolora) preferred hybrids, two chrysomelids (Chrysomela scripta and Ch. Knabi) preferred hybrids and S. sericea, and the scarab beetle (Popillia japonica) preferred S. eriocephala. Experiments with puri®ed salicortin indicated that salicortin concentration may contribute to these preferences. The relative performance (growth rate, pupal/adult weight and survivorship) of these beetles on the three willow taxa did not correspond with their feeding preferences. Three species exhibited intermediate performance on hybrid willows (the two Chrysomela spp. and P.japonica); the Chrysomela spp. performed best on S. sericea, while P.japonica performed best on S. eriocephala. One species performed equally well on all three taxa (C. multipunctata bigsbyana). The performance of Pl.
