Fruit Flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) Fauna in Nevşehir and Niğde Provinces with a New Record from Turkey Turkish Journal of Zoology Turk J Zool (2016) 40: 785-800 http://journals.tubitak.gov.tr/zoology/ © TÜBİTAK Short Communication doi:10.3906/zoo-1510-3 Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) fauna in Nevşehir and Niğde provinces with a new record from Turkey Mehmet YARAN*, Murat KÜTÜK Department of Biology, Faculty of Science and Arts, Gaziantep University, Gaziantep, Turkey Received: 02.10.2015 Accepted/Published Online: 29.03.2016 Final Version: 24.10.2016 Abstract: This study was based on fruit flies collected from Nevşehir and Niğde provinces in spring and summer of 2012–2013 in Turkey. During the study, samples were collected from host plants randomly or systematically by using an insect net. In the study, 59 species belonging to 17 genera from 4 subfamilies have been determined, and Urophora trinervii (Korneyev and White, 1996) has been recorded for the first time in Turkey. In addition, adult figures of the new record and wing figures of all species are given. Key words: Fruit flies, Tephritidae, fauna, Nevşehir, Niğde, Turkey Tephritidae are picture-winged flies of variable Trypetinae) were determined from Nevşehir and Niğde size belonging to the superfamily Tephritoidea within provinces. Urophora trinervii Korneyev and White 1996 is the suborder Brachycera (De Meyer, 2006). According recorded for the first time from Turkey. Species are listed in to Freidberg (2006), fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) alphabetical order. In addition, wing figures of all species include 3 to 6 subfamilies, about 40 tribes and subtribes, and adult figures of the new record are given in this paper. approximately 500 genera, and about 4500 species.

  • Cheshire Wildlife Trust
    Cheshire Wildlife Trust Heteroptera and Diptera surveys on the Manchester Mosses with PANTHEON analysis by Phil Brighton 32, Wadeson Way, Croft, Warrington WA3 7JS [email protected] on behalf of Lancashire and Cheshire Wildlife Trusts Version 1.0 September 2018 Lancashire Wildlife Trust Page 1 of 35 Abstract This report describes the results of a series of surveys on the Manchester mosslands covering heteroptera (shield bugs, plant bugs and allies), craneflies, hoverflies, and a number of other fly families. Sites covered are the Holcroft Moss reserve of Cheshire Wildlife Trust and the Astley, Cadishead and Little Woolden Moss reserves of Lancashire Wildlife Trust. A full list is given of the 615 species recorded and their distribution across the four sites. This species list is interpreted in terms of feeding guilds and habitat assemblages using the PANTHEON software developed by Natural England. This shows a strong representation in the sample of species associated with shaded woodland floor and tall sward and scrub. The national assemblage of peatland species is somewhat less well represented, but includes a higher proportion of rare or scarce species. A comparison is also made with PANTHEON results for similar surveys across a similar range of habitats in the Delamere Forest. This suggests that the invertebrate diversity value of the Manchester Mosses is rather less, perhaps as a result of their fragmented geography and proximity to past and present sources of transport and industrial pollution. Introduction The Manchester Mosses comprise several areas of lowland bog or mire embedded in the flat countryside between Warrington and Manchester. They include several areas designated as SSSIs in view of the highly distinctive and nationally important habitat, such as Risley Moss, Holcroft Moss, Bedford Moss, and Astley Moss.

  • (Other Than Moths) Attracted to Light
    Insects (other than moths) attracted to light Prepared by Martin Harvey for BENHS workshop on 9 December 2017 Although light-traps go hand-in-hand with catching and recording moths, a surprisingly wide range of other insects can be attracted to light and appear in light-traps on a regular or occasional basis. The lists below show insects recorded from light-traps of various kinds, mostly from southern central England but with some additions from elsewhere in Britain, and based on my records from the early 1990s to date. Nearly all are my own records, plus a few of species that I have identified for other moth recorders. The dataset includes 2,446 records of 615 species. (See the final page of this document for a comparison with another list from Andy Musgrove.) This isn’t a rigorous survey: it represents those species that I have identified and recorded in a fairly ad hoc way over the years. I record insects in light-traps fairly regularly, but there are of course biases based on my taxonomic interests and abilities. Some groups that come to light regularly are not well-represented on this list, e.g. chironomid midges are missing despite their frequent abundance in light traps, Dung beetle Aphodius rufipes there are few parasitic wasps, and some other groups such as muscid © Udo Schmidt flies and water bugs are also under-represented. It’s possible there are errors in this list, e.g. where light-trapping has been erroneously recorded as a method for species found by day. I’ve removed the errors that I’ve found, but I might not yet have found all of them.

  • Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR23 P (Capel-Le-Ferne and Folkestone Warren East)
    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR23 P (Capel-le-Ferne and Folkestone Warren East) The cliff-top provides an excellent vantage point for monitoring visual migration and has been well-watched by Dale Gibson, Ian Roberts and others since 1991. The first promontory to the east of the Cliff-top Café is easily accessible and affords fantastic views along the cliffs and over the Warren. The elevated postion can enable eye-level views of arriving raptors which often use air currents over the Warren to gain height before continuing inland. A Rough-legged Buzzard, three Black Kites, three Montagu’s Harriers and numerous Honey Buzzards, Red Kites, Marsh Harriers and Ospreys have been recorded. It is also perfect for watching arriving swifts and hirundines which may pause to feed over the Warren. Alpine Swift has occurred on three occasions and no less than nine Red- rumped Swallows have been logged here. Looking west from near the Cliff-top Café towards Copt Point and Folkestone Looking east from near the Cliff-top Café towards Abbotscliffe The Warren below the Cliff-top Café Looking west from the bottom of the zigzag path Visual passage will also comprise Sky Larks, Starlings, thrushes, wagtails, pipits, finches and buntings in season, whilst scarcities have included Tawny Pipit, Golden Oriole, Serin, Hawfinch and Snow Bunting. Other oddities have included Purple Heron, Short-eared Owl, Little Ringed Plover, Ruff and Ring-necked Parakeet, whilst in June 1992 a Common Rosefinch was seen on the cliff edge. Below the Cliff-top Café there is a zigzag path leading down into the Warren.
