Woher Kommen Die Namen?
Entomologica Austriaca 20 9-155 Linz, 15.3.2013 Woher kommen die Namen? Die validen rezenten Taxa der Kamelhalsfliegen der Erde: Systematisches Verzeichnis und Etymologie (Insecta: Endopterygota: Neuropterida: Raphidioptera) Horst ASPÖCK & Ulrike ASPÖCK Abstract: Where do the names come from? The valid extant taxa of the snakeflies of the world: Systematic list and etymology (Insecta: Endopterygota: Neuropterida: Raphidioptera). The core of this paper concerns the etymological explanations of all valid and recent genus- and species-group names of snakeflies. In total, 309 names are treated of both families of the order: Raphidiidae (26 genera and 25 subgenera, 201 species and 9 subspecies) and Inocelliidae (7 genera and 1 subgenus, 38 species and 1 subspecies). Recent studies on the molecular phylogeny of the Raphidioptera have generated new phylogenetic trees, which differ in part considerably from previous hypotheses. This article presents for the first time a catalog of all recent species of Raphidioptera and lists them according to a new arrangement. In addition, more than 220 illustrations showing persons, imagines and pre-imaginal stages of Raphidioptera, and characteristic habitats (including many type localities) are presented. K e y w o r d s : Raphidioptera, Raphidiidae, Inocelliidae, classification, phylogeny, list of genera, list of species, etymology. 1. Einleitung Die Raphidioptera (deutsch: Kamelhalsfliegen) sind eine der drei Ordnungen der Neuropterida und die Schwestergruppe der Megaloptera+Neuroptera (U. ASPÖCK et al. 2012b). Sie umfassen zwei Familien – Raphidiidae (Abb. 1 und 2) und Inocelliidae (Abb. 3) – mit insgesamt 239 bisher (Dezember 2012) beschriebenen validen Spezies (plus 10 Subspezies). Davon entfallen 201 Spezies (plus 9 Subspezies) in insgesamt 26 Genera (plus 25 Subgenera) auf die Familie Raphidiidae und 38 Spezies (plus 1 Subspezies) in 7 Genera (plus 1 Subgenus) auf die Familie Inocelliidae. -

The study summarizes the results of research of the Neuropterida and Mecoptera in North Bohemia. One species of Megaloptera, two species of Raphidioptera, 32 species of Neuroptera (Coniopterygidae 6, Sisyridae 1, Hemerobiidae 14, Chrysopidae 10, Myrmeleontidae 1) and three species of Mecoptera are recorded from the regi- on. Interesting records include Puncha ratzeburgi (Brauer, 1876), Sisyra nigra (Retzius, 1783), Micromus lanosus (Zelený, 1962), Chrysoperla lucasina (Lacroix, 1912) and Euroleon nostras (Fourcroy, 1785). ÚVOD Česká společnost entomologická pořádá každý rok Entomologické dny zaměřené na studium různých skupin hmyzu. Výzkum je zaměřen jak na oblasti zajímavé z hlediska entomologického, tak na oblasti entomologicky třeba méně zajímavé, ale z míst, kde dosud nebyl prováděn soustavnější výzkum hmyzu. Jde také o to získat poznatky významné z hlediska ochrany přírody, a proto je výzkum prováděn i ve zvláště chráněných územích ve spolupráci s pracovišti Agentury ochrany přírody a krajiny ČR. V roce 2007 byl výzkum zaměřen na severní Čechy, a to na CHKO Jizerské hory. V jiné části severních Čech, v NP České Švýcarsko, CHKO Lužické hory a CHKO Labské pískovce, byl v roce 2003 prováděn individuální výzkum síťokřídlých (Neuroptera). -
Sphecidae" (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae & Crabronidae) from Sicily (Italy) and Malta
Linzer biol. Beitr. 35/2 747-762 19.12.2003 New records of "Sphecidae" (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae & Crabronidae) from Sicily (Italy) and Malta C. SCHMID-EGGER Abstract: Two large samples from Sicily and Malta are revised. They include 126 species from Sicily, 19 species of them are new for the fauna of Sicily: Astata gallica, Belomicrus italicus, Crabro peltarius bilbaoensis, Crossocerus podagricus, Gorytes procrustes, Lindenius albilabris, Lindenius laevis, Passaloecus pictus, Pemphredon austrica, Pemphredon lugubris, Rhopalum clavipes, Spilomena troglodytes, Stigmus solskyi, Synnevrus decemmaculatus, Tachysphex julliani, Trypoxylon kolazyi, Trypoxylon medium. Miscophus mavromoustakisi, found in Sicily, is also new for the fauna of Italy. A species of the genus Synnevrus is probably unknown to science. The total number of species in Sicily is 217 now. Zoogeographical aspects are discussed. Most of the recorded species are by origin from central or southern Europe. A few species have an eastern, resp. western Mediterranean distribution pattern. A species is a northern African element. Key words: Hymenoptera, Apoidea, Sphecidae, Crabronidae, Sicily, Italy, Malta, fauna, zoogeographical aspects, endemism. Introduction The fauna of Sphecidae from Sicily was never treated in a special publication. PAGLIANO (1990), in his catalogue of the Sphecidae from Italy, was the first who listed all published records of Sphecidae from Sicily. NEGRISOLO (1995) completed the listing in the ‘Checklist della specie della fauna Italiana’. He listed 186 species names, and some subspecies names from Sicily. Nevertheless, the fauna of Sicily is far from being completely known. I had the opportunity to examine two large collections from Sicily. Bernhard Merz collected in June 1999 Diptera at Sicily and Malta and took also many Aculeate with him. -

Butterflies are known to be very sensitive to environmental changes. Species distribution is modified by climate warming with latitudinal and altitudinal range shifts, but also environmental perturbations modify abundance and species composition of communities. Changes can be detected and described when large datasets are available, but unfortunately only for few Mediterranean countries they were created. The butterfly fauna of the Mediterranean Basin is very sensitive to climate warming and there is an urgent need of large datasets to investigate and mitigate risks such as local extinctions or new pest outbreaks. The fauna of Calabria, the southernmost region of peninsular Italy, is composed also of European species having here their southern range. The aim of this dataset paper is to increase and update the knowledge of butterfly distribution in a region very sensitive to climate warming that can become an early-warning area. -

Biodiversity Data Journal 3: e4830. doi: 10.3897/BDJ.3.e4830 Abstract Fauna Europaea provides a public web-service with an index of scientific names of all living European land and freshwater animals, their geographical distribution at country level (up to the Urals, excluding the Caucasus region), and some additional information. The Fauna Europaea project covers about 230,000 taxonomic names, including 130,000 accepted species and 14,000 accepted subspecies, which is much more than the originally projected number of 100,000 species. This represents a huge effort by more than 400 contributing specialists throughout Europe and is a unique (standard) reference suitable for many users in science, government, industry, nature conservation and education. -

Jana III Sobieskiego 2, 41-902 Bytom, Poland e-mail: [email protected] 2 National Museum of Natural History, Tsar Osvoboditel Blvd 1, 1000 Sofia, Bulgaria e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The collections of neuropterid orders from Bulgaria and Romania preserved in museums in Poland (Upper Silesian Museum in Bytom and Museum and Institute of Zoology in Warsaw) are identified. Faunistic information on 89 species is reported: 77 species from Bulgaria and 37 species from Romania (25 species from both countries). Coniopteryx (Xeroconiopteryx) atlasensis, Megalomus tineoides, Cunctochrysa cosmia and Neuroleon assimilis are new species for the fauna of Bulgaria. These first records shift the range borders of three species with 190 to 700 km northwards. Easternmost localities of Phaeostigma (Phaeostigma) pilicollis and Nothochrysa capitata and northernmost locality of Neuroleon assimilis are registered. The new localities outline the borders of the ranges of 20 species. Very rare species are Phaeostigma (Pontoraphidia) rhodopicum (Balkan endemic species), Libelloides lacteus (a single population in Romania), Coniopteryx (Metaconiopteryx) lentiae (in Romania), Coniopteryx (Holoconiopteryx) haematica and Sagittalata perla (both in Bulgaria), and Nedroledon anatolicus (in both countries). Key words: Raphidioptera, Megaloptera, Neuroptera, faunistics, Bulgaria, Romania. INTRODUCTION The fauna of all three neuropterid orders of Romania and Bulgaria is well explored and the species diversity is almost fully known. -
