Increased dispersal rates and distances in density-stressed bush crickets (Metriophera brachyptera).
Get PDFDer infolge der Habitatfragmentierung eingeschränkte Individuenaustausch zwischen Populationen gilt als einer der Hauptgründe für ein erhöhtes Aussterberisiko insbesondere bei standorttreuen Arten mit geringem Ausbreitungspotential. Einige Untersuchungen an Heuschrecken deuten jedoch an, dass das Ausbreitungsvermögen standorttreuer Arten bisher möglicherweise unterschätzt worden ist. Es wird angenommen, daß bestimmte Umweltbedingungen bei diesen Arten Ausbreitungsverhalten auslösen und ihr Ausbreitungsvermögen erhöhen kann. An der Kurzflügeligen Beißschrecke Metrioptera brachyptera (L., 1761) wurden in einem ersten Schritt die Emigrationsraten bei verschiedenen Populationsdichten in \u27Mikrokosmen\u27 (Käfigpopulationen) untersucht. Der Anteil der Individuen, die aus den Käfigen auswanderten, war positiv mit der Individuendichte in den Käfigen korreliert. In einem zweiten Schritt wurden sowohl Indivduen, die unter Dichtestress gehalten wurden, als auch Tiere, die keinen hohen Individuendichten ausgesetzt waren, auf einem Fußballplatz freigelassen und ihr Ausbreitungsmuster untersucht. \u27Gestresste\u27 Individuen dispergierten signifikant schneller und weiter als \u27ungestresste\u27. Die Ergebnisse weisen darauf hin, dass Ausbreitungsverhalten induzierbar ist und auch bei standorttreuen Arten auftreten kann. Es ist bei diesen jedoch keine regelmäßige Erscheinung, sondern besitzt Ausnahmecharakter.StichwörterDispersal, emigration, experimental approach, metapopulation, microcosm.The limitation of dispersal due to habitat fragmentation is considered as one key factor for an increasing risk of extinction especially in sedentary species with low dispersal ability. A few studies on grasshoppers and crickets indicate that dispersal ability even of sedentary species may have been underestimated in the past. It is argued that certain environmental conditions can trigger and increase dispersal in such species. In a first set of experiments emigration rates of the bush cricket Metrioptera brachyptera (L., 1761) were recorded in \u27microcosms\u27 (cage-populations) with various \u27population\u27 densities. The proportion of emigrants was correlated with increasing densities. In a second set of experiments individuals stressed by high densities as well as individuals that were not submitted to this stress were released on a soccer field and dispersal patterns of both groups were recorded. Stressed individuals dispersed significantly faster and further than unstressed ones. The results indicate that dispersal is induced by certain environmental conditions suggesting episodic colonization patterns which occur even in sedentary species.KeywordsDispersal, emigration, experimental approach, metapopulation, microcosm
First record of Cordyla Meigen and Monoclona Mik from the Oriental region (Diptera: Mycetophilidae).
Get PDFCordyla orientalis sp. n. und Monoclona laosensis sp. n. werden aus Süd-Laos vom Bolaven-Plateau beschrieben. Für die orientalische Region sind das die ersten Nachweise aus den sonst holarktisch verbreiteten Gattungen. - Die neue Cordyla-Spezies gehört zur Artengruppe mit gelblicher Färbung, 12 Fühlergeißeln und langem Stiel der Cu-Gabel. Somit steht sie den paläarktischen Arten Cordyla flaviceps (Staeger, 1840) und C. fasciata Meigen, 1830 äußerst nahe. Die neue Monoclona-Spezies gehört zur Artengruppe mit ventral getrennten Gonocoxiten, wodurch sie in die Nähe von Monoclona silvatica Zaitzev, 1983, M. orientalis Zaitzev, 1983 und M. rufilatera (Walker, 1837) zu stellen ist.Nomenklatorische Handlungenorientalis Ševčík, 2001 (Cordyla), spec. n.laosilvatica Ševčík, 2001 (Monoclona), 2001Cordyla orientalis sp. n. and Monoclona laosensis sp. n. are described from the Bolaven Plateau in southern Laos. This is the first record of these principally Holarctic genera from the Oriental region. - The new species of Cordyla belongs to the species group with yellowish coloration, 12 flagellomeres and long stem of Cu-fork, and is thus most closely related to the Palaearctic Cordyla flaviceps (Staeger, 1840) and C. fasciata Meigen, 1830. The new species of Monoclona belongs to the species group with ventrally separated gonocoxites and is closely related to Monoclona silvatica Zaitzev, 1983, M. orientalis Zaitzev, 1983 and M. rufilatera (Walker, 1837).Nomenclatural Actsorientalis Ševčík, 2001 (Cordyla), spec. n.laosilvatica Ševčík, 2001 (Monoclona), 200

The spatial distribution and plant specificity of Neuropterida in different forest sites in Southern Germany (Raphidioptera and Neuroptera).
Get PDFIn Wäldern unterschiedlicher Struktur wurde die Neuropteriden-Fauna mit Fallen im Kronenraum sowie in Bodennähe erfaßt. Die fünf Wälder bilden einen Gradienten hinsichtlich der Baumartenzusammensetzung, der vom fichtendominierten Wirtschaftswald über Wirtschaftswälder mit zunehmendem Laubholzanteil bis hin zu einem ungenutzten Laubwald reicht.
In den Jahren 1995 bis 1997 wurden insgesamt 1396 Neuropterida aus 44 Arten der Familien Raphidiidae, Coniopterygidae, Hemerobiidae und Chrysopidae gefangen. Die meisten Individuen und Arten traten in Lufteklektoren im Kronenraum auf. Die Artenzusammensetzung unterschied sich sowohl zwischen den Wäldern als auch zwischen den Baumarten. Die meisten Arten wurden auf Eiche (Quercus petraea) gefangen, gefolgt von Lärche (Larix decidua), Fichte (Picea abies) und Buche (Fagus sylvatica). 18 Arten traten in den Fängen selten auf. Die häufigeren Arte können in drei Gruppe eingeteilt werden, die i) vornehmlich auf Nadelhölzern, ii) vornehmlich auf Laubhölzern oder iii) auf beiden Gehölzarten gefangen wurden.StichwörterNeuropterida, Raphidioptera, Coniopterygidae, Hemerobiidae, Chrysopidae, canopy fauna, spatial distribution, plant specificity.In Southern Germany the neuropterid fauna of five forest sites was sampled by a set of automatic traps both in the canopy and near the ground. The sites form a gradient regarding the composition of the tree species ranging from a spruce dominated forest, mixed forests with increasing percentages of decidous trees to a stand with oak and beech only.
A total of 1396 Neuropterida were caught between 1995 to 1997 representing 44 species of Raphidiidae, Coniopterygidae, Hemerobiidae and Chrysopidae. Most species and specimens were caught with flight interception traps in the crown stratum. The assemblage of species differed from site to site and between tree species over all sites. Most species were caught on Quercus petraea followed by Larix decidua, Picea abies and Fagus sylvatica in a decreasing order. Eighteen species were seldom encountered. The more frequent species were divided into: i) coniferous associated species (10 sp.), ii) species of decidous trees (7 sp.), and iii) species with no clear preference (9 sp.).KeywordsNeuropterida, Raphidioptera, Coniopterygidae, Hemerobiidae, Chrysopidae, canopy fauna, spatial distribution, plant specificity

Get PDFDie Typen und weiteres Material der Arten der Gattungen Callicerus Gravenhorst, Pseudosemiris Machulka und Saphocallus Sharp werden revidiert. Auf der Grundlage eines morphologischen Vergleichs unter Berücksichtigung der wahrscheinlich nahverwandten Taxa Aloconota Thomson, 1858 und Disopora Thomson, 1859 werden Callicerus, Pseudosemiris und Saphocallus als distinkte Gattungen betrachtet und redeskribiert. 7 valide Callicerus-, 7 Pseudosemiris-Arten sowie eine Art der Gattung Saphocallus werden erkannt und beschrieben: C. obscurus Gravenhorst, C. muensteri Bernhauer, C. atricollis (Aubé), C. appenninus sp. n., C. sparsicollis Bernhauer, C. fulvicornis Eppelsheim, C. rigidicornis (Erichson), P. kaufmanni (Eppelsheim), P. breiti Scheerpeltz, P. circassica Fagel, P. fulgida sp. n., P. granulosa Fagel, P. stricticornis Fagel, P. zanettii sp. n. und S. parviceps Sharp. P. velox Jablokow-Khnzorian wird als species dubia betrachtet. Die folgenden Taxa werden synonymisiert: Callicerus Gravenhorst, 1802 = Semiris Heer, 1839, resyn., = Sphaerotaxus Bernhauer, 1915, syn. n.; Callicerus obscurus Gravenhorst, 1802 = Callicerus stolfai Scheerpeltz, 1956, syn. n., = Callicerus ibericus Fagel, 1958, syn. n.; Calodera atricollis Aubé, 1850 = Callicerus clavatus Rottenberg, 1870, syn. n.; Callicerus fulvicornis Eppelsheim, 1883 = Callicerus gagliardii Scheerpeltz, 1956, syn. n.; Homalota rigidicornis Erichson, 1839 = Callicerus mandli Scheerpeltz, 1956, syn. n., = Callicerus beieri Scheerpeltz, 1959, syn. n.; Homalota gregaria Erichson, 1839 (nomen protectum) = Aleochara caliginosa Stephens, 1832, syn. n.

Atheta toroenensis Bernhauer, 1943, die zuvor Callicerus zugeordnet worden war, wird in die Gattung Homoiocalea Bernhauer, 1943, stat. n. gestellt. Sowohl die Gattung als auch H. toroenensis (Bernhauer), comb. n. werden redeskribiert. Für Callicerus obscurus Gravenhorst wird ein Neotypus, für Calodera atricollis Aubé, Callicerus muensteri Bernhauer, C. obscurus var. pedemontanus Baudi, C. clavatus Rottenberg, C. sparsicollis Bernhauer, C. fulvicornis Eppelsheim und C. kaufmanni Eppelsheim werden Lectotypen designiert.
Die Differentialmerkmale aller untersuchter Gattungs- und Artengruppentaxa sowie die Ergebnisse morphometrischer Analysen werden illustriert. Die Diagnosen werden durch Angaben zur intraspezifischen Variabilität und zur Unterscheidung von ähnlichen Arten sowie durch Bestimmungstabellen für die Arten der Gattungen Callicerus und Pseudosemiris ergänzt. Die verfügbaren Daten zur Verbreitung und Bionomie werden ausgewertet. Die Arten der Gattungen Callicerus und Pseudosemiris sind danach univoltin; die Fortpflanzungsperiode beginnt im Frühjahr, und die Präimaginalentwicklung ist im Frühsommer abgeschlossen. Reproduktion und Überwinterung finden offenbar in einem unterirdischen, bisher aber unbekannten Habitat statt. Dies würde erklären, warum praktisch alle Arten selten bis extrem selten nachgewiesen wurden. Die Phänologien von C. obscurus und C. rigidicornis werden durch Diagramme veranschaulicht. Verbreitungskarten illustrieren die Verbreitungsgebiete der weniger seltenen Arten.StichwörterColeoptera, Staphylinidae, Aleocharinae, Athetini, Callicerus, Pseudosemiris, Saphocallus, Homoiocalea, Aloconota, Palaearctic region, Europe, taxonomy, biogeography, ecology, intraspecific variation, life history, new species, new synonymy, new combination, neotype designation, lectotype designation.Nomenklatorische Handlungengregaria (Erichson, 1839) (Aloconota), nom. protectum described as Homalota gregariamontenegrina (Bernhauer, 1899) (Aloconota (Disopora)), Lectotype described as Atheta (Disopora) montenegrinacaliginosa Stephens, 1832 (Bolitochara), nom. oblitum; syn. n. of Aloconota gregaria (Erichson, 1839): nom. protectumappenninus Assing, 2001 (Callicerus), spec. n.atricollis (Aubé, 1850) (Callicerus), Lectotype described as Calodera atricollisclavatus Rottenberg, 1870 (Callicerus), Lectotype; syn. n. of Callicerus atricollis (Aubé, 1850)fulvicornis Eppelsheim, 1883 (Callicerus), Lectotype described as Callicerus atricollis var. fulvicornismuensteri Bernhauer, 1900 (Callicerus), Lectotypeobscurus Gravenhorst, 1802 (Callicerus), Neotypesparsicollis Bernhauer, 1915 (Callicerus), Lectotypestolfai Scheerpeltz, 1956 (Callicerus), syn. n. of Callicerus obscurus Gravenhorst, 1802smetanai Scheerpeltz, 1967 (Callicerus (Callicerus)), syn. n. of Atheta (Disopora) montenegrina (Bernhauer, 1899)beieri Scheerpeltz, 1959 (Callicerus (Semiris)), syn. n. of Callicerus rigidicornis (Erichson, 1839)gagliardii Scheerpeltz, 1956 (Callicerus (Semiris)), syn. n. of Callicerus fulvicornis Eppelsheim, 1883ibericus Fagel, 1958 (Callicerus (Semiris)), syn. n. of Callicerus obscurus Gravenhorst, 1802mandli Scheerpeltz, 1956 (Callicerus (Semiris)), syn. n. of Callicerus rigidicornis (Erichson, 1839)pedemontanus Baudi, 1869 (Callicerus obscurus var.), Lectotype now a synonym of Callicerus atricollis (Aubé, 1850)toroenensis (Bernauer, 1943) (Homoiocalea), comb. n. hitherto Atheta (Homoiocalea) toroenensisfulgida Assing, 2001 (Pseudosemiris), spec. n.kaufmanni (Eppelsheim, 1887) (Pseudosemiris), Lectotype described as Callicerus kaufmannizanettii Assing, 2001 (Pseudosemiris), spec. n.Homoiocalea Bernhauer, 1943 (Staphylinidae), stat. n. hitherto a subgenus of AthetaSemiris Heer, 1839 (Staphylinidae), syn. n. of Callicerus Gravenhorst, 1802Sphaerotaxus Bernhauer, 1915 (Staphylinidae), syn. n. of Callicerus Gravenhorst, 1802The types and additional material of the species of Callicerus Gravenhorst, Pseudosemiris Machulka, and Saphocallus Sharp are revised. The taxonomic history of these taxa is outlined. Based on a comparative morphological study - including species of the presumably closely allied genus group taxa Aloconota Thomson, 1858 and Disopora Thomson, 1859 - Callicerus, Pseudosemiris, and Saphocallus are regarded as distinct genera and redescribed. 7 valid species of Callicerus, 7 of Pseudosemiris, and one of Saphocallus are recognized and (re-)described: C. obscurus Gravenhorst, C. muensteri Bernhauer, C. atricollis (Aubé), C. appenninus sp. n., C. sparsicollis Bernhauer, C. fulvicornis Eppelsheim, C. rigidicornis (Erichson), P. kaufmanni (Eppelsheim), P. breiti Scheerpeltz, P. circassica Fagel, P. fulgida sp. n., P. granulosa Fagel, P. stricticornis Fagel, P. zanettii sp. n., and S. parviceps Sharp. P. velox Jablokow-Khnzorian is regarded as a species dubia. The following synonymies are established: Callicerus Gravenhorst, 1802 = Semiris Heer, 1839, resyn., = Sphaerotaxus Bernhauer, 1915, syn. n.; Callicerus obscurus Gravenhorst, 1802 = Callicerus stolfai Scheerpeltz, 1956, syn. n., = Callicerus ibericus Fagel, 1958, syn. n.; Calodera atricollis Aubé, 1850 = Callicerus clavatus Rottenberg, 1870, syn. n.; Callicerus fulvicornis Eppelsheim, 1883 = Callicerus gagliardii Scheerpeltz, 1956, syn. n.; Homalota rigidicornis Erichson, 1839 = Callicerus mandli Scheerpeltz, 1956, syn. n., = Callicerus beieri Scheerpeltz, 1959, syn. n.; Homalota gregaria Erichson, 1839 (nomen protectum) = Aleochara caliginosa Stephens, 1832, syn. n.

Atheta toroenensis Bernhauer, 1943, a species previously attributed to Callicerus, is assigned to the genus Homoiocalea Bernhauer, 1943, stat. n. Both the genus and H. toroenensis (Bernhauer), comb. n. are redescribed. A neotype is designated for Callicerus obscurus Gravenhorst. Lectotypes are designated for Calodera atricollis Aubé, Callicerus muensteri Bernhauer, C. obscurus var. pedemontanus Baudi, C. clavatus Rottenberg, C. sparsicollis Bernhauer, C. fulvicornis Eppelsheim, and C. kaufmanni Eppelsheim. - Distinguishing characters of all the genus group and species group taxa treated as well as the results of the morphometric analyses are figured. The descriptions are complemented by remarks on intraspecific variation, by comparative notes, and by keys to the species of Callicerus and Pseudosemiris. The available data on the distribution and bionomics of the species are compiled. Ecological evidence and collection data suggest that species of Callicerus and Pseudosemiris are univoltine, with reproduction and pre-imaginal development taking place from early spring to early summer, and apparently reproduce and hibernate in an unknown cryptic habitat, which would also explain the the fact that records of practically all species are rare to extremely rare. The phenologies of C. obscurus and C. rigidicornis are figured, and the areas of distribution of the less rare species are mapped.KeywordsColeoptera, Staphylinidae, Aleocharinae, Athetini, Callicerus, Pseudosemiris, Saphocallus, Homoiocalea, Aloconota, Palaearctic region, Europe, taxonomy, biogeography, ecology, intraspecific variation, life history, new species, new synonymy, new combination, neotype designation, lectotype designation.Nomenclatural Actsgregaria (Erichson, 1839) (Aloconota), nom. protectum described as Homalota gregariamontenegrina (Bernhauer, 1899) (Aloconota (Disopora)), Lectotype described as Atheta (Disopora) montenegrinacaliginosa Stephens, 1832 (Bolitochara), nom. oblitum; syn. n. of Aloconota gregaria (Erichson, 1839): nom. protectumappenninus Assing, 2001 (Callicerus), spec. n.atricollis (Aubé, 1850) (Callicerus), Lectotype described as Calodera atricollisclavatus Rottenberg, 1870 (Callicerus), Lectotype; syn. n. of Callicerus atricollis (Aubé, 1850)fulvicornis Eppelsheim, 1883 (Callicerus), Lectotype described as Callicerus atricollis var. fulvicornismuensteri Bernhauer, 1900 (Callicerus), Lectotypeobscurus Gravenhorst, 1802 (Callicerus), Neotypesparsicollis Bernhauer, 1915 (Callicerus), Lectotypestolfai Scheerpeltz, 1956 (Callicerus), syn. n. of Callicerus obscurus Gravenhorst, 1802smetanai Scheerpeltz, 1967 (Callicerus (Callicerus)), syn. n. of Atheta (Disopora) montenegrina (Bernhauer, 1899)beieri Scheerpeltz, 1959 (Callicerus (Semiris)), syn. n. of Callicerus rigidicornis (Erichson, 1839)gagliardii Scheerpeltz, 1956 (Callicerus (Semiris)), syn. n. of Callicerus fulvicornis Eppelsheim, 1883ibericus Fagel, 1958 (Callicerus (Semiris)), syn. n. of Callicerus obscurus Gravenhorst, 1802mandli Scheerpeltz, 1956 (Callicerus (Semiris)), syn. n. of Callicerus rigidicornis (Erichson, 1839)pedemontanus Baudi, 1869 (Callicerus obscurus var.), Lectotype now a synonym of Callicerus atricollis (Aubé, 1850)toroenensis (Bernauer, 1943) (Homoiocalea), comb. n. hitherto Atheta (Homoiocalea) toroenensisfulgida Assing, 2001 (Pseudosemiris), spec. n.kaufmanni (Eppelsheim, 1887) (Pseudosemiris), Lectotype described as Callicerus kaufmannizanettii Assing, 2001 (Pseudosemiris), spec. n.Homoiocalea Bernhauer, 1943 (Staphylinidae), stat. n. hitherto a subgenus of AthetaSemiris Heer, 1839 (Staphylinidae), syn. n. of Callicerus Gravenhorst, 1802Sphaerotaxus Bernhauer, 1915 (Staphylinidae), syn. n. of Callicerus Gravenhorst, 180
