Williamston SIS Species List Williamston Special Invertebrate Site species list This is a list of invertebrate species which have been recorded at Williamston Special Invertebrate Site. Not all the records included in this list have been verified. The aim of the list is to give recorders an idea of the range of species found at the site. To the best of our knowledge, this list of records is correct, as of November 2019.

  • Hoverfly Newsletter No
    Dipterists Forum Hoverfly Newsletter Number 48 Spring 2010 ISSN 1358-5029 I am grateful to everyone who submitted articles and photographs for this issue in a timely manner. The closing date more or less coincided with the publication of the second volume of the new Swedish hoverfly book. Nigel Jones, who had already submitted his review of volume 1, rapidly provided a further one for the second volume. In order to avoid delay I have kept the reviews separate rather than attempting to merge them. Articles and illustrations (including colour images) for the next newsletter are always welcome. Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 49 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2010 Dipterists Forum Bulletin) should be sent to me: David Iliff Green Willows, Station Road, Woodmancote, Cheltenham, Glos, GL52 9HN, (telephone 01242 674398), email:[email protected], to reach me by 20 May 2010. Please note the earlier than usual date which has been changed to fit in with the new bulletin closing dates. although we have not been able to attain the levels Hoverfly Recording Scheme reached in the 1980s. update December 2009 There have been a few notable changes as some of the old Stuart Ball guard such as Eileen Thorpe and Austin Brackenbury 255 Eastfield Road, Peterborough, PE1 4BH, [email protected] have reduced their activity and a number of newcomers Roger Morris have arrived. For example, there is now much more active 7 Vine Street, Stamford, Lincolnshire, PE9 1QE, recording in Shropshire (Nigel Jones), Northamptonshire [email protected] (John Showers), Worcestershire (Harry Green et al.) and This has been quite a remarkable year for a variety of Bedfordshire (John O’Sullivan).

  • Pollinator Portraits 2017 Portraits De Pollinisateurs 2017
    Pollinator Portraits 2017 Photos: © Martin C D Speight Text: Martin C D Speight This guide has been assembled by the National Biodiversity Data Centre Pollinator portraits 2017 These portraits are not of bees, but of flies – European hoverflies, to be precise. In the landscape, hoverflies are small and can flit by unobserved. In the portraits we see them larger than life and can examine them at leisure. You are invited to send the portraits to friends and colleagues. Not so well known as bees, hoverflies play their own, and slightly different role in pollination. They are significant pollinators of various fruit trees and some other crops, like oil-seed rape. They also pollinate many wild flowers, including rare species not normally visited by bees. Hoverflies can be found in a very wide range of terrestrial and freshwater habitats. As larvae about a third of them feed on greenfly, other plant bugs, or small caterpillars and are recognised as helping to prevent epidemic greenfly infestations in cereal crops like winter wheat. Another equally large group of species is plant-feeding; these hoverflies mine leaves, stem- bases, rhizomes, tubers, bulbs or corms of herb layer plants. The rest of them grow up on a diet of bacteria, algae or other micro-organisms, usually in water or damp situations of some sort. Almost without exception, as adults hoverflies feed on nectar and pollen, visiting the flowers of a very wide range of trees, shrubs and herb layer plants, including pollen-only flowers like those of grasses, sedges, oak trees and poppies. The names of the hoverflies depicted in each portrait, along with brief notes, are included at the end of this document.

  • Specificity in Predator—Prey Relationships With
    SPECIFICITY IN PREDATOR—PREY RELATIONSHIPS seilcoAL WITH PARILIQULAR REFERENCE TO THE APHIDOPHAGOUS COCCINELLIDAE R. L. Blackman B.Sc. A thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London Imperial College of Science and Technology, Field Station, Silwood Park, Sunninghill, ASCOT, Berkshire. October, 1965. 2. ABSTRACT In the first section of the thesis an attempt is made to present a picture of the nature and extent of specificity as it occurs in the food relations of certain groups of predacious insects, in so far as the present state of our knowledge permits. The experimental work described in the second section of the thesis was done on two species of aphidophagous Coccinellid, Adalia bipunctata L. and Coccinella septem- punctata L. The effects of different aphid species on the rate of development and mortality of the larvae and the size and fecundity of the adults are compared. The relative unsuitability of certain aphids, especially Aphis fabae as food for Adalia bipunctata, is discussed. A comparison is made of the feeding behaviour of the two Coccinellids on four species of aphid. Experiments are described in which the ability of larvae and adults to select a suitable aphid or avoid an unsuitable one was investigated. The ecological significance of the results is considered, and the potential value of such predators in pest control, given a better knowledge of their prey relations and specificity, is briefly discussed.

  • Diptera) Attracted to Meat Baited Pyramidal Trap on Sapping Stump of European Walnut (Juglans Regia) in Central Bohemia (Czech Republic)
    ISSN 1211-3026 Čas. Slez. Muz. Opava (A), 60: 223-233, 2011 DOI: 10.2478/v10210-011-0026-3 Records of interesting flies (Diptera) attracted to meat baited pyramidal trap on sapping stump of European walnut (Juglans regia) in Central Bohemia (Czech Republic) Miroslav Barták & Jindřich Roháček Records of interesting flies (Diptera) attracted to meat baited pyramidal trap on sapping stump of European walnut (Juglans regia) in Central Bohemia (Czech Republic). – Čas. Slez. Muz. Opava (A), 60: 223-233. Abstract: A pyramidal trap with combined bait is described and illustrated. The trap inserted above sapping stump of European walnut (Juglans regia) in a site in Central Bohemia near Uhlířské Janovice in 2010 yielded a rich spectrum of flies (Diptera). Records of 24 species most interesting from the faunistic, biological and nature conservancy point of view are given with comments upon their distribution and biology but a number of other captured species are also mentioned. Besides species developing in or attracted as adults to sap runs [e.g. Syrphidae: Ceriana conopsoides (Linnaeus, 1758), Aulacigastridae: three Aulacigaster spp., various Drosophilidae], other important components were formed by saproxylic [Xylomyidae: Solva marginata (Meigen, 1820), some Stratiomyidae, many Lonchaeidae, Milichiidae: Milichia ludens (Wahlberg, 1847), some Muscidae], mycophagous (some Asteiidae, Sphaeroceridae, Drosophilidae), necrophagous (some Sepsidae, Acartophtalmidae, Milichiidae, Sphaeroceridae) and saprophagous (some Sepsidae, Carnidae, Milichiidae, Sphaeroceridae) species, both latter attracted to meat-bait used in the trap. Aulacigaster falcata Papp, 1998 is the first record from Bohemia. Key words: Diptera, pyramidal trap, sapping stump of Juglans regia, meat-bait, new records Introduction A number of various trapping methods were developed to capture flies (for review and descriptions of traps see e.g.
