Virksomheten på Milde utgjør en egen enhet, Arboretet og Botanisk hage. For denne enheten rapporteres forskningsaktiviteten, publisering og tilvekst til samlingene; for den øvrige virksomheten på Milde henvises det til Årsmelding for Arboretet og Botanisk hage 2010 og Årringen 2010. I 2010 flyttet administrasjonen og zoologene ved De naturhistoriske samlinger fra Museplass 3 til Realfagbygget. Planlegging av de nye magasinene i Realfagbygget og oppfølging under byggeprosessen, gjennomgang av samlingene, pakking av materiale etterfulgt av nedfrysing og innflytting, tok en vesentlig del av arbeidskapasiteten i 2010. Samtidig ble det gjennom Museumsprosjekt 2014 tilført midler til arbeid i samlingene og mange personer ble midlertidig engasjert. Dette omfattet også rensing / konservering av hvalskjelettene i utstillingssamlingen. Ved utgangen av 2010 var alle zoologiske samlinger flyttet, med unntak av samlingen av hestekranier som ikke fikk plass i de nye magasinene. Ombyggingen i Realfagbygget for magasiner medførte at de paleobotaniske samlingene ble flyttet til midlertidige lokaler i 1. etasje. For å tilfredsstille behovene for ulike laboratoriefasiliteter ved samlingsenhetene ble ombygginger av noen arealer planlagt og gjennomført før innflytting av personale. Våren 2010 sluttet Ingrid Herø, konsulent i administrasjonen ved DNS gjennom mange år. Etter en overgangsfase med vikar og hjelp fra

  • The Bark Beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) of the Maltese Islands (Central Mediterranean)
    BULLETIN OF THE ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF MALTA (2009) Vol. 2 : 25-52 The Bark Beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) of the Maltese Islands (Central Mediterranean) David MIFSUD1 & Miloš KNÍŽEK2 ABSTRACT. The bark beetle fauna of the Maltese Islands is reviewed, based on literature records and examination of collected material. A total of twenty-one species have been recorded of which seventeen species represent new records from the Maltese archipelago. These include Hylurgus micklitzi, Kissophagus hederae, Phloeosinus thujae, Liparthrum mori, Scolytus amygdali, Scolytus rugulosus, Scolytus sulcifrons, Pityogenes calcaratus, Orthotomicus erosus, Thamnurgus characiae, Coccotrypes dactyliperda, Crypturgus cylindricollis, Crypturgus numidicus, Xyleborinus saxesenii, Hypocryphalus scabricollis comb. nov., Hypothenemus eruditus and Hypothenemus leprieuri. The earlier citation of Scolytus scolytus is incorrect and should refer to S. sulcifrons whereas the citation of Cryphalus piceae is definitely incorrect due to the absence of its host-plants in Malta. Additionally, two species, Xyleborus ferrugineus and X. volvulus were collected alive on logs originating from Tropical Africa and intended for the timber industry. So far, there were no local records of establishment of these two species in Malta. KEY WORDS. Bark beetles, Malta, Scolytidae, new records. INTRODUCTION The Scolytidae, commonly referred to as bark beetles comprise some 6,000 described species world-wide (BRIGHT & SKIDMORE, 2002; KNÍŽEK & BEAVER, 2004). Most species breed in woody plants where they feed most commonly on the phloem, however few species are known from other plant parts, such as seeds, cones, fruit and the central pith of fallen leaves. Most species prefer dying or dead host material but some species are known to cause primary attacks on healthy host plants, often leading to mortality of the attacked host plant.

  • Phylogenetic Analysis of Micracidini Bark Beetles (Coleoptera
    8 Phylogenetic analysis of Micracidini bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) demonstrates a single trans-Atlantic disjunction and inclusion of Cactopinus in the New World clade Bjarte H. Jordal,1 Johanna Kaidel Abstract—Micracidini (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) is an unusual tribe of mainly bigynous bark beetles found in dry forests and scrublands in Afrotropical and Neotropical regions. Their phylogenetic relationship to other bark beetle groups is poorly known with few clues from external morphology. Hence, a phylogenetic analysis of five genes (COI, EF-1a, 28S, CAD, ArgK) and morphological (internal and external) data was conducted to test potential sister group relationships, including 56 outgroup genera in 22 tribes, and 18 species in 10 genera of Micracidini. Cactopinus Schwarz – a genus with many cactus feeding species – was nested within a clade of all Neotropical and Nearctic genera. The New World was colonised by an Afrotropical ancestor about 75–85 million years ago, where cactus feeding in Cactopinus evolved much later. All analyses indicated a paraphyletic clade of Afrotropical micracidines, strongly supporting inclusion of the Ipini genus Dendrochilus Schedl in Afromicracis Schedl. Hypoborini appear to be one of the more plausible sistergroup candidates to Micracidini, and revealed morphological similarity in protibial and proventricular characters. Most phylogenetic results were supported independently by morphological and molecular data and therefore document the power of thorough examination of morphological characters analysed properly in a phylogenetic context.

  • The Native and Introduced Bark and Ambrosia Beetles of Michigan (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) Anthony I
    2009 THE GREAT LAKES ENTOMOLOGIST 101 The Native and Introduced Bark and Ambrosia Beetles of Michigan (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) Anthony I. Cognato1, Nicolas Barc1, Michael Philip2, Roger Mech3, Aaron D. Smith1, Eric Galbraith1, Andrew J. Storer4, and Lawrence R. Kirkendall5 Abstract Our knowledge of the biogeography of Scolytinae of eastern temperate North America is very patchy. We used data from hand collecting, trapped material (from 65 of 83 counties), and museum collections, supplemented by literature records, to compile a list comprising 107 bark beetle species in 45 genera for Michigan, a state with an especially rich diversity of woody plants. We provide detailed collection data documenting 32 species not previously cata- logued for Michigan, 23 of which are new state records; the genera Trypophloeus and Trischidias are reported from Michigan for the first time. Fifteen Michigan scolytines are not native to North America; Ambrosiodmus rubricollis (Eich- hoff), Crypturgus pusillus (Gyllenhal), Euwallacea validus (Eichhoff), Xyleborus californicus Wood, Xylosandrus crassiusculus (Motschulsky) have not previously been found in the state. We report Michigan hosts for 67 species, including 49 new host associations for the 93 native species. Despite identifying over 4000 specimens for this study, we fully expect to find many more species: over 30 additional species occur in the Great Lakes region. ____________________ Faunistic studies are a first step towards a deeper understanding of the ecology of local biotic communities. These studies provide records of diversity and serve as reference points for the assessment of faunal differences due to time, space, or environmental conditions. To increase the understanding of regional scolytine faunas, we present a study begun in 1978 of the bark and ambrosia beetles of Michigan.

We as- sessed beetle community dynamics in tropical dry forest sites in early, intermediate, and late successional stages, evaluating the influence of resource availability and seasonal variations in guild structure. We collected a total of 763 beetles from 23 species, including 14 bark beetle species, and 9 ambrosia beetle species. Local richness of bark and ambrosia beetles was estimated at 31 species. Bark and ambrosia composition was similar over the successional stages gradient, and beta diversity among sites was primarily determined by species turnover, mainly in the bark beetle community. Bark beetle richness and abundance were higher at intermediate stages; availability of wood was the main spatial mechanism.

    Koleopterologische Rundschau 76 389–428 Wien, Juli 2006 Studies on West Indian Scolytidae (Coleoptera) 4 A review of the Scolytidae of Puerto Rico, U.S.A. with descriptions of one new genus, fourteen new species and notes on new synonymy (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) D.E. BRIGHT &J.A.TORRES (†) Abstract A comprehensive biodiversity study of the Scolytidae (Coleoptera) of Puerto Rico, USA has been underway for several years. Seventy-one species are now recorded from the island. One new genus, Allothenemus, is described with Allothenemus minutus new species, as the type species. An additional 13 new species are described: Chramesus atlanticus, Scolytodes puertoricensis, S. atlanticus, Pseudothysanoes magnispinatus, Hypothenemus amplissimus, H. concavifrons, Trischidias puertoricensis, Xyleborus atlanticus, Theoborus puertoricensis, Coptoborus bellus, Xyleborinus insulosus, Pityophthorus convexicollis, and Corthylus insularis. Twenty-one species are recorded from Puerto Rico for the first time. Four new cases of synonymy are reported: Dryocoetoides cristatus (FABRICIUS) (= Dryocoetoides caracicolai HOPKINS, syn.n.), Hypothenemus crudiae (PANZER) (= Stephanoderes trinitatis HOPKINS, syn.n.) and Monarthrum mali (FITCH) (= Pterocyclon praeustum EGGERS, syn.n., and Pterocyclon omissum SCHEDL, syn.n.). Two species, Hypothenemus hampei WESTWOOD and Xyleborus xylographus (SAY), are deleted from the Puerto Rican list. New host records for several species are reported. Key words: Coleoptera, Scolytidae, West Indies, new species, new records, new synonymy, taxonomy. Introduction For the past several years, a biodiversity study of the Scolytidae (Coleoptera) of Puerto Rico has been conducted by the second author of this article. The study used a combination of collecting from infested plants, seeds, dead trees and dry vines and using various types of traps, especially light traps and pitfall traps containing 70% ethanol.
