First Lancashire and Cheshire records of true bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) with revised county checklists Dr. Stephen Judd National Museums Liverpool, William Brown St., Liverpool, L3 8EN, [email protected] Introduction An impressive 45 true bug species have been recorded for the first time from Lancashire and Cheshire since the last county checklist was published some 25 years ago (Judd, 1986). They are summarised below and include 45 first records for Lancashire (VC59 & VC60) and 42 first records for Cheshire (VC58). Updated county checklists are also presented here, with 274 species now recorded from Lancashire (194 localised for VC59 and 165 for VC60) and 293 species recorded from Cheshire. Records have been obtained from a number of sources. Cheshire and some Lancashire records are held on the rECOrd database and some VC60 records are held by the Cumbria Biodiversity Record Centre. Unlocalised records for aquatic bugs are published as dot maps in Guest et al. (2003) and Huxley (2003). Modern vouchers for specimens recorded by M.D. Bigmore, C. Felton, L.W. Hardwick, S. Judd, G.T. Knight and I.D. Wallace are housed in the National Museums Liverpool (NML) collection. Records for Sound Common, Cheshire, Sefton Coast dune heath and Ainsdale Sandhills LNR are published in Judd (1995, 1996, 1999 & 2002). Historic, pre-1970 records, were extracted from county checklists compiled by Whittaker (1906 & 1908), Britten (1930), Massee (1955) - including additional unpublished annotations made by the author to this checklist; Lancashire and Cheshire Fauna Committee cards housed at Manchester Museum; voucher specimens collected by W.E. Sharp and J.W. Ellis housed in the NML collection; Flint’s (1964) unpublished report on the Hemiptera of Ainsdale National Nature Reserve and a database of Sefton Coast invertebrates, maintained by NML. N.J Steeden provided an impressive 77 first VC60 records, including 19 new to Lancashire. The remaining records have been provided by other individual fieldworkers. First county records NEPIDAE Waterscorpions Water Stick Insect Ranatra linearis (L.) - An adult netted by J.P. Guest from a pond at Mobberley, Cheshire (SJ8082) on 19th June 2002 (Guest, 2002) was the first record for Cheshire. R. Jackson at Ollerton (SJ783749) located a second specimen, on 27th May 2004. A third specimen was caught in a bottle trap, near Bramhall (SJ909841), set by M. Robinson in May 2004. Another one was netted by D. Bentley on 27th May 2007 at a pond in Knutsford (SJ7698) and M. Tynen recorded it on 11th June 2008 at Lawton Hall Lake (SJ8242955510), between Stoke and Congleton. D. Bentley also recorded the first Lancashire record (VC59) when he found this species by torchlight on 26th May 2007 at Barracks Lodge, Bury, Greater Manchester (SD78451032). CORIXIDAE Waterboatmen Micronecta scholtzi (Fb.) - Listed as rare in Cheshire by Guest et al. (2003). S. Judd collected the first specimen from a saline pool at Aldersey Green (SJ463568) on 18th June 1986 and this was determined by I.D. Wallace. On 10th August 2001 J. Guest found a few specimens in the ditch-like outflow stream from Watch Lane Flash (SJ7260). APHELOCHEIRIDAE Aphelocheirus aestivalis (Fab.) - Recorded for the first time in Cheshire when hundreds of adults were found by J.P.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

    The Corixidae (Hemiptera) of Oklahoma KURT F

    BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES 71 The Corixidae (Hemiptera) of Oklahoma KURT F. SCHAEFER, Panhandle State Colle.e, Goodwell The Corixidae or water boatman family is a commonly collected fam­ ily taken in a variety of aquatic habitats and frequently at lights at night or on shiny surfaces during the day. Hungerford's 1948 monograph on the world corixids is an important contribution, essential to a serious collector. My paper is an attempt to make the identification of state fonns easier and to supply descriptions and distribution data for the corixids of the state. Schaefer and Drew (1964) reported 18 species and Ewing (1964) added one for the state. Five addi­ tional species are included because information of their known ranges in­ dicates that they will probably be found in Oklahoma when more collecting is done. Each pair of legs is modified for a different function. The anterior pair is short with the tenninal segment (pala) often more or less spoon­ shaped and fringed with bristles for food gathering. Both adults and nymphs feed mainly on algae and protozoa, obtained from bottom ooze (Usinger, 1956). The middle pair of legs, used for anchorage and support, is long and slender, tenninating with two long claws. The hind pair, for swimming, is stouter, laterally flattened and fringed with hairs. The principal dimorphic structures used as key characters are as fol­ lows: males, usually smaller, with vertex of the head otten more produced and frons concavely depressed. Fonn and chaetotaxy of the male palae, front tarsi, are much used characters. The female abdomen is bilaterally symmetrical, while the asymmetry of male may be either to the right (dextral) or left (stnistral).

It included 47 locali- ties throughout the country. The surveyed invertebrate groups included slugs and snails (Gastropoda), dragonflies (Odonata), grasshoppers (Orthoptera), true bugs (Heteroptera), ants (Formicidae), butterflies (Lepidoptera) and some coleopterans (Staphylinidae: Pselaphinae). Data on the visited localities, identi- fied species and their conservation status are presented. In total, 316 species of 209 genera and 68 families were recorded. Fifty species were identified as potential indicator species for this wetland habitat type. The highest species richness (with more than 50 species) was observed in wetlands near Marino pole (Plovdiv District) and Karaisen (Veliko Tarnovo District). Key words: Gastropoda, Odonata, Orthoptera, Heteroptera, Formicidae, Lepidoptera, Pselaphinae, wetland. Introduction According to the EUNIS Biodiversity Database, all known mire and spring complex according to the wetlands (mires, bogs and fens) are territories with occurrence of rare and threaten plant and mollusc water table at or above ground level for at least half species.

McWilliam - July 2002 Taken from the Lancashire and Cheshire Entomological Society (LCES) Report and Annual Proceedings One Hundred and Tenth Session 1986/87, Pages 60-65. The checklist is based on previous county checklists compiled by Whittaker (1906, 1908), Britten (1930) and Massee (1955). Additional unpublished annotations made by Massee to his 1955 checklist were made available by the Biological Records Centre at Monks Wood. Records were extracted from the Lancashire and Cheshire Fauna Committee cards housed at Manchester Museum. Data has been extracted from the Liverpool Museum collection and all post 1970 records are supported by voucher specimens in the Museum's collection.

    Hazards for Nature? Avalanches As a Promotor of Biodiversity. a Case Study on the Invertebrate Fauna in the Gesäuse National Park (Styria, Austria)

    5th Symposium Conference Volume for Research in Protected Areas pages 389 - 398 10 to 12 June 2013, Mittersill Natural Hazards – Hazards for Nature? Avalanches as a promotor of biodiversity. A case study on the invertebrate fauna in the Gesäuse National Park (Styria, Austria) Christian Komposch, Thomas Frieß & Daniel Kreiner Abstract Avalanches are feared by humans and considered “catastrophic” due to their unpredictable and destructive force. But this anthropocentric perspective fails to capture the potential ecological value of these natural disturbances. The Gesäuse National Park is a model-region for investigations of such highly dynamic events because of its distinct relief and extreme weather conditions. This project aims to record and analyse the animal assemblages in these highly dynamic habitats as well as document succession and population structure. 1) Dynamic processes lead to one of the very few permanent and natural vegetationless habitat types in Central Europe outside the alpine zone – i. e. screes and other rocky habitats at various successional stages. In addition to the tight mosaic distribution of a variety of habitats over larger areas, avalanche tracks also offer valuable structures like dead wood and rocks. Remarkable is the sympatric occurrence of the three harvestmen species Trogulus tricarinatus, T. nepaeformis und T. tingiformis, a species diversity peak of spiders, true-bugs and ants; and the newly recorded occurrence of Formica truncorum. 2) The presence of highly adapted species and coenoses reflect the extreme environmental conditions, specific vegetation cover and microclimate of these habitats. Several of the recorded taxa are rare, endangered and endemic. The very rare dwarf spider Trichoncus hackmani is a new record for Styria and the stenotopic and critically endangered wolf-spider Acantholycosa lignaria is dependent on lying dead wood.
