Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper reports the true bugs (Heteroptera) collected during a large-scale study of saproxylic insects in exotic pine plantations in New Zealand, reared from Pinus radiata dead wood in the central North Island in 2009–2010. Although only seven species were collected in total, the observations of two flightless flat bug (Aradidae) species indicate that exotic pine forests may provide alternative habitat for dispersal-limited endemic forest invertebrates. An important finding is the first New Zealand record of the Australian aradid Glochocoris monteithi. Assuming this find represents the existence of an established local population, this would be only the third documented case of a flat bug successfully establishing in another major zoological realm.
期刊介绍：
The invertebrate diversity of New Zealand is of great interest worldwide because of its geographic isolation and geological history. The New Zealand Entomologist plays an important role in disseminating information on field-based, experimental, and theoretical research.
The New Zealand Entomologist publishes original research papers, review papers and short communications. We welcome submissions in all aspects of science regarding insects and arthropods in a New Zealand or Australasian setting. The journal’s subject matter encompasses taxonomy, phylogenetics, biogeography, biological control and pest management, conservation, ecology and natural history.
The journal is the official publication of the Entomological Society of New Zealand. Papers published or submitted elsewhere for publication will not be considered, but publication of an abstract or summary elsewhere (e.g. conference proceedings) does not preclude full publication in the New Zealand Entomologist. Accepted papers become copyright of the Entomological Society of New Zealand. The journal is published in English, but we also welcome publication of abstracts in Maori.
