Gens, 1863) Salamanca (ASSING, 2010) Oxypoda (Deropoda) Amicta Erichson, 1839 Cádiz, Algarve (ASSING, 2010) SEGUNDA ACTUALIZACIÓN DEL CATÁLOGO IBEROBALEAR DE LOS ALEOCHARINAE (Coleoptera : Staphylinidae) Purificación Gamarra1 y Raimundo Outerelo2 1Centro Superior de Estudios Universitarios La Salle-UAM. C/La Salle, 10. 28023-Madrid. 2 Departamento de Biología Animal y Antropología Física. Facultad de Biología. UCM. C/ Antonio Novais, 2. 28040-Madrid. [Publicado originalmente en Boletín Sociedad Entomológica Aragonesa nº 37 (2005): 1-81]. Actualizado hasta el 30 de abril 2014. El primer catálogo recogía datos hasta el 2005. En 2009 se realizó la primera actualización de la subfamilia. Desde mayo del 2009 hasta abril de 2014 se han producido una serie de modificaciones en la subfamilia Aleocharinae de la Península Ibérica, siendo debidos en gran parte a las revisiones realizadas de diversos géneros (ASSING, V., PASNIK,G., TRONQUET,M.) o a la publicación de resultados de la biodiversidad en diversas localidades (FERREIRA, GAMARRA ET ALS, MARTINS DA SILVA ET ALS, VIÑOLAS ET ALS, VORST) o resultados de muestreos en medios concretos como cuevas (TINAUT ET ALS, PÉREZ ET ALS) o carroña (PRADO E CASTRO ET ALS). Además hemos logrado publicaciones antiguas (GONZÁLEZ, M., 1963, WALKER, J.J., 1889 Y SCHEERPELTZ, O., 1961) que no pudimos consultar anteriormente y que han implicado modificaciones en las citas para la Península de algunas especies. De otros artículos desconocíamos de su existencia a pesar de estar publicados antes del 2009 (ASSING, V., 2001, 2002, MARUYAMA,M., 2006, Y PASNIK, G., 2006 a, 2006 b) y que han implicado modificaciones para el catálogo. Y por último otras publicaciones al ser cercanas a la fecha de la publicación de la actualización no fueron recogidas y han implicado modificaciones para la distribución de algunas especies (TINAUT,A. ET ALS, 2008 Y VIÑOLAS, A. & MASÓ, G., 2008). Actualmente la subfamilia comprende 86 géneros y 548 especies. Las principales novedades en la presente actualización son: Erratas detectadas en la publicación original y su primera actualización: Bolitocha (Ditropalia) obliqua sustituye a “oblicua” Thinonoma sustituye a “Trinonoma” Especies descritas nuevas para la ciencia.

Nevertheless, nature can still be found within these areas. Urban ecosystems can offer ecological niches, sometimes only found in cities. This biodiversity in the form of genetic diversity, species diversity and habitat diversity provided the structure of this thesis. First, we studied the effects of urbanisation on genetic diversity. We analysed the population structure of the wall lizard with highly variable genetic markers.

  • Additions, Deletions and Corrections to the Staphylinidae in the Irish Coleoptera Annotated List, with a Revised Check-List of Irish Species
    Bulletin of the Irish Biogeographical Society Number 41 (2017) ADDITIONS, DELETIONS AND CORRECTIONS TO THE STAPHYLINIDAE IN THE IRISH COLEOPTERA ANNOTATED LIST, WITH A REVISED CHECK-LIST OF IRISH SPECIES Jervis A. Good1 and Roy Anderson2 1Glinny, Riverstick, Co. Cork, Republic of Ireland. e-mail: <[email protected]> 21 Belvoirview Park, Belfast BT8 7BL, Northern Ireland. e-mail: <[email protected]> Abstract Since the 1997 Irish Coleoptera – a revised and annotated list, 59 species of Staphylinidae have been added to the Irish list, 11 species confirmed, a number have been deleted or require to be deleted, and the status of some species and names require correction. Notes are provided on the deletion, correction or status of 63 species, and a revised check-list of 710 species is provided with a generic index. Species listed, or not listed, as Irish in the Catalogue of Palaearctic Coleoptera (2nd edition), in comparison with this list, are discussed. The Irish status of Gabrius sexualis Smetana, 1954 is questioned, although it is retained on the list awaiting further investgation. Key words: Staphylinidae, check-list, Irish Coleoptera, Gabrius sexualis. Introduction The Staphylinidae (rove-beetles) comprise the largest family of beetles in Ireland (with 621 species originally recorded by Anderson, Nash and O’Connor (1997)) and in the world (with 55,440 species cited by Grebennikov and Newton (2009)). Since the publication in 1997 of Irish Coleoptera - a revised and annotated list by Anderson, Nash and O’Connor, there have been a large number of additions (59 species), confirmation of the presence of several species based on doubtful old records, a number of deletions and corrections, and significant nomenclatural and taxonomic changes to the list of Irish Staphylinidae.

  • Remarks on Some European Aleocharinae, with Description of a New Rhopaletes Species from Croatia (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae)
    Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle © Décembre Vol. LIII pp. 191–215 «Grigore Antipa» 2010 DOI: 10.2478/v10191-010-0015-6 REMARKS ON SOME EUROPEAN ALEOCHARINAE, WITH DESCRIPTION OF A NEW RHOPALETES SPECIES FROM CROATIA (COLEOPTERA: STAPHYLINIDAE) LÁSZLÓ ÁDÁM Abstract. Based on an examination of type and non-type material, ten species-group names are synonymised: Atheta mediterranea G. Benick, 1941, Aloconota carpathica Jeannel et Jarrige, 1949 and Atheta carpatensis Tichomirova, 1973 with Aloconota mihoki (Bernhauer, 1913); Amischa jugorum Scheerpeltz, 1956 with Amischa analis (Gravenhorst, 1802); Amischa strupii Scheerpeltz, 1967 with Amischa bifoveolata (Mannerheim, 1830); Atheta tricholomatobia V. B. Semenov, 2002 with Atheta boehmei Linke, 1934; Atheta palatina G. Benick, 1974 and Atheta palatina G. Benick, 1975 with Atheta dilaticornis (Kraatz, 1856); Atheta degenerata G. Benick, 1974 and Atheta degenerata G. Benick, 1975 with Atheta testaceipes (Heer, 1839). A new name, Atheta velebitica nom. nov. is proposed for Atheta serotina Ádám, 2008, a junior primary homonym of Atheta serotina Blackwelder, 1944. A revised key for the Central European species of the Aloconota sulcifrons group is provided. Comments on the separation of the males of Amischa bifoveolata and A. analis are given. A key for the identification of Amischa species occurring in Hungary and its close surroundings is presented. Remarks are presented about the relationships of Alevonota Thomson, 1858 and Enalodroma Thomson, 1859. The taxonomic status of Oxypodera Bernhauer, 1915 and Mycetota Ádám, 1987 is discussed. The specific status of Pella hampei (Kraatz, 1862) is debated. Remarks are presented about the relationships of Alevonota Thomson, 1858, as well as Mycetota Ádám, 1987, Oxypodera Bernhauer, 1915 and Rhopaletes Cameron, 1939.

  • On Some Athetini from Armenia and Adjacent Regions (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae)
    download www.zobodat.at Linzer biol. Beitr. 49/1 341-368 28.7.2017 On some Athetini from Armenia and adjacent regions (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae) Volker ASSING & Jürgen VOGEL A b s t r a c t : Nine species of Athetini from Armenia are described and illustrated, eight of them for the first time: Atheta (Atheta) brevapicalis nov.sp. (South Armenia); A. (A.) hamulata nov.sp. (South Armenia); A. (Dimetrota) bispinosa nov.sp. (Armenia, Georgia); A. (D.) senticollis nov.sp. (North Armenia); A. (Oreostiba) altiviva BENICK, 1974 (widespread in Armenia); A. (O.) semialba nov.sp. (widespread in Armenia); A. (O.) abscisa nov.sp. (widespread in Armenia); A. (O.) brevitheca nov.sp. (widespread in Armenia); Liogluta armeniaca nov.sp. (Central and South Armenia). Three synonymies are proposed: Atheta hansseni STRAND, 1943 = A. brachati ASSING, 2013, nov.syn.; Liogluta granigera (KIESENWETTER, 1850) = L. trigemina (EPPELSHEIM, 1880), nov.syn.; L. funesta EPPELSHEIM, 1890 = L. nigrobusta ASSING, 2016, nov.syn. A lectotype is designated for Homalota trigemina EPPELSHEIM, 1880. K e y w o r d s : Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Aleocharinae, Athetini, Liogluta, Atheta, Armenia, taxonomy, new species, descriptions, new synonymies, new subgeneric assignment, lectotype designation. Introduction According to SCHÜLKE & SMETANA (2015), only ten species of Athetini had been recorded from Armenia by the end of 2014, seven of Atheta THOMSON, 1858, one of Hydrosmecta THOMSON, 1858, one of Liogluta THOMSON, 1858, and one of Pycnota MULSANT & REY, 1873. A preliminary research of faunistic literature dealing with the Staphylinidae fauna of Armenia revealed that this list is not complete. Nevertheless, in view of the fact that the Athetini is a mega-diverse tribe represented in the Palaearctic region by about 2000 species or more in numerous genera, it can be concluded that more than a hundred species should be present in Armenia and that next to nothing is known about the Athetini fauna of this country at present.

We found the brown minute scavenger beetle (Corticaria sp.) at so many survey plots for the Little Things that Run the City project that we dubbed the species ‘Old Faithful’. I’ve recreated the map of the City of Melbourne within the beetle’s body. Can you trace the outline of Port Phillip Bay? Can you recognise the shape of your suburb? Next time you’re walking in a park or garden in the City of Melbourne, keep a keen eye out for this ubiquitous little beetle.

Five synonymies are proposed: N. gansuensis PACE, 1998 = N. qinlingmontis PACE, 2011, nov.syn.; N. globifera PACE, 1998 = N. caluoensis PACE, 2011, nov.syn., = N. daxuensis PACE, 2011, nov.syn.; N. guangdongensis PACE, 2004 = N. rougemonti PACE, 2011, nov.syn. = N. ruficollis PACE, 2011, nov.syn. Nepalota franzi is reported from China for the first time. In all, 35 valid species are currently known from the East Palaearctic, four of them of doubtful status (males unknown). Twenty species have been described or reliably recorded from China exclusive of Taiwan. The diversity is greatest in Yunnan (fourteen species, seven of them exclusive), followed by Hubei (five species; three exclusive); Sichuan (four species, one exclusive), Gansu and Shaanxi (three species each), Guangdong (two species), Zhejiang, Chongqing, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Guizhou, and Beijing (one species each).

The copyright holder for this preprint (which was not peer-reviewed) is the author/funder. All rights reserved. No reuse allowed without permission. How symbiotic lifestyles evolve from free-living ecologies is poorly understood. Novel traits mediating symbioses may stem from preadaptations: features of free- living ancestors that predispose taxa to engage in nascent interspecies relationships. In Metazoa’s largest family, Staphylinidae (rove beetles), the body plan within the subfamily Aleocharinae is preadaptive for symbioses with social insects. Short elytra expose a pliable abdomen that bears targetable glands for host manipulation or chemical defense. The exposed abdomen has also been convergently refashioned into ant- and termite-mimicking shapes in multiple symbiotic lineages. Here we show how this preadaptive anatomy evolved via novel Hox gene functions that remodeled the ancestral coleopteran groundplan.

By Ulrich Irmler & Stephan Giirlich Summary Although the rove beetle family is one of the most species rich insect families, it is ecologically rarely investigated. Little is known about the influence of environmental demands on the occurrence of the species. Thus, the present investigation aims to relate rove beetle assemblages and species to soil and forest parameters of Schleswig- Holstein (northern Germany). In the southernmost region of Schleswig-Holstein near Geesthacht, 65 sites were investigated by pitfall traps studying the relationship be­ tween the rove beetle fauna and the following environmental parameters: soil pH, organic matter content, habitat area and canopy cover. In total 265 rove beetle species have been recorded, and of these 69 are listed as endangered in Schleswig-Holstein. Four assemblages could be differentiated, but separation was weak. Wood area and canopy cover were significantly related with the rove beetle composition using a multivariate analysis. In particular, two assemblages of loosely wooded sites, or heath-like vegetation, were significantly differentiated from the densely forested assemblages by canopy cover and Corg-content of soil. Spearman analysis revealed significant results for only 30 species out of 80.

  • Tarset and Greystead Biological Records
    Tarset and Greystead Biological Records published by the Tarset Archive Group 2015 Foreword Tarset Archive Group is delighted to be able to present this consolidation of biological records held, for easy reference by anyone interested in our part of Northumberland. It is a parallel publication to the Archaeological and Historical Sites Atlas we first published in 2006, and the more recent Gazeteer which both augments the Atlas and catalogues each site in greater detail. Both sets of data are also being mapped onto GIS. We would like to thank everyone who has helped with and supported this project - in particular Neville Geddes, Planning and Environment manager, North England Forestry Commission, for his invaluable advice and generous guidance with the GIS mapping, as well as for giving us information about the archaeological sites in the forested areas for our Atlas revisions; Northumberland National Park and Tarset 2050 CIC for their all-important funding support, and of course Bill Burlton, who after years of sharing his expertise on our wildflower and tree projects and validating our work, agreed to take this commission and pull everything together, obtaining the use of ERIC’s data from which to select the records relevant to Tarset and Greystead. Even as we write we are aware that new records are being collected and sites confirmed, and that it is in the nature of these publications that they are out of date by the time you read them. But there is also value in taking snapshots of what is known at a particular point in time, without which we have no way of measuring change or recognising the hugely rich biodiversity of where we are fortunate enough to live.
