Abstract This paper is the fourth in a series of studies on the genus Trachys Fabricius from China. It reports the results of a collecting survey of the fauna in Jiangxi Province, China. Altogether, 27 species and subspecies were collected and identified. Detailed distribution data are presented for all species and subspecies recorded from Jiangxi Province, fifteen of which represent new records for the province and two of which are considered new species and are described and illustrated herein: Trachys jinpenshanensis Peng, new species; Trachys parviformis Peng, new species.

Abstract Comparative studies require understanding the dispersal and movement capacity of species. However, it is not often possible to obtain information on this key life-history attribute in insects. Rove beetles (Staphylinidae) are the second most abundant group of epigeal invertebrates, and little is known about their dispersal abilities in tropical regions. We explored the relationship between six linear morphological body-size traits and three wing measures from 48 necrophilous rove beetle species for fitting univariate linear regression models. Pronotal width was the more accurate morphological variable to predict the wing traits of necrophilous rove beetle species. Models of wing area were a better fit when data had been sorted according to subfamily. The models obtained can be used to estimate length, width, and area of the necrophilous staphylinid species' wings. Morphological traits are useful as a proxy for dispersal in comparative ecological and evolutionary studies.

Five species of the phalacrid genus Litostilbus Guillebeau, 1894 are currently recognized (Gimmel 2013). Three of these species occur in Southeast Asia and were, until recently, treated under the genus Pseudolitochrus Liubarsky, 1993 (Gimmel 2013; Lyubarsky 1994). The remaining two species, Litostilbus testaceus (Fabricius, 1792) and Litos tilbus tristriatus (Casey, 1890), are collectively known from the West Indies and USA (Florida) (Gimmel 2013). A critical examination of the type specimens of these two species, along with more recently collected specimens, led to the results below. The two previously described species were found to be synonymous, and the genus is herein considered to be represented in the New World by a single widespread, variable species. Genitalia images were obtained using a 2.5× objective (planapochromatic lenses) on a Zeiss SteREO Discovery.V20 with an attached Zeiss Axiocam 506. Habitus images were obtained with a Canon EOS 7D with an MP-E 65-mm lens mounted on a Cognisys StackShot. All source images were stacked in Helicon Focus 6.8.0. Label data for type specimens are presented verbatim; only country-, island-, and/or province-level data are given for specimens examined, along with repositories, as follows: American Museum of Natural History, New York, NY, USA (AMNH; Lee Herman); Natural History Museum, London, UK (BMNH; Roger Booth, Maxwell Barclay); Canadian Museum of Nature, Ottawa, Canada (CMNC; François Génier); Carnegie Museum of Natural History, Pitts burgh, PA, USA (CMNH; Robert Androw); Florida State Collection of Arthropods, Gainesville, FL, USA (FSCA; Paul Skelley); Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad, Santo Domingo de Heredia, Costa Rica (INBio); Louisiana State Arthropod Museum, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA, USA (LSAM; Victoria Bayless); Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA (MCZ; Philip Perkins, Crystal Maier); Matthew L.

目前已确认的phalacrid属Litostilbus Guillebeau, 1894的5种(Gimmel 2013)。其中三种出现在东南亚,直到最近才被归为1993年的Pseudolitochrus Liubarsky属(Gimmel 2013;Lyubarsky 1994)。其余两种,Litostilbus testaceus (Fabricius, 1792)和Litos - tilbus tristriatus (Casey, 1890),在西印度群岛和美国(佛罗里达州)统称(Gimmel 2013)。对这两个物种的模式标本以及最近收集的标本进行了严格的检查,得出了以下结果。这两个先前描述的物种被发现是同义的,而属在这里被认为是在新世界由一个单一的广泛分布的,可变的物种代表。使用蔡司SteREO Discovery上的2.5倍物镜(平色镜)获得生殖器图像。V20配有蔡司Axiocam 506。Habitus的图像是用佳能EOS 7D相机和安装在Cognisys StackShot上的MP-E 65毫米镜头获得的。所有源图像在Helicon Focus 6.8.0中进行堆叠。模式标本的标签数据逐字呈现;仅提供国家、岛屿和/或省级的标本检查数据,以及存储库,如下:美国自然历史博物馆,纽约,NY, USA (AMNH);李赫尔曼);英国伦敦自然历史博物馆(BMNH;罗杰·布斯,麦克斯韦·巴克莱);加拿大自然博物馆,渥太华,加拿大(CMNC;弗朗索瓦Genier);卡内基自然历史博物馆,匹兹堡,宾夕法尼亚州,美国(CMNH;罗伯特Androw);美国佛罗里达州盖恩斯维尔节肢动物收藏馆(FSCA;保罗Skelley);哥斯达黎加圣多明各埃雷迪亚国家生物多样性研究所(INBio);路易斯安那州立节肢动物博物馆,路易斯安那州立大学,巴吞鲁日,LA, USA (LSAM;维多利亚贝里斯);美国哈佛大学比较动物学博物馆,剑桥,马萨诸塞州(MCZ;菲利普·珀金斯,克里斯托·迈尔);Matthew L.

Randel (2013) provided a list of 11 host plants previously published for Lytta magister Horn, 1870 (Meloidae: Meloinae) and nine new observations from the community of Rosamond, in south-central Kern County, California, USA. Hendricks (1984) reported Encelia frutescens A. Gray (Asteraceae) as a host plant species not included in Randel (2013) but is not unexpected as plants in the genus Encelia are major food sources for L. magister (Snead and Alcock 1985). In addition to those records published in Randel (2013), I report here a new host plant for L. magister. Lytta magister has a distributional range extending from southern California to Arizona into northwestern Sonora and the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico, and continues north to Utah (Pinto and Clark 2022; Randel 2013). I observed L. magister feeding behavior near Searles Valley, in northwestern San Bernardino County, California on 25 April 2019 (Fig. 1). Lytta magister adults were opportunistically observed during biological surveys feeding on shrubs and forbs, with one new host plant recorded. Adults were observed feeding on the following:

Gray (Asteraceae),但Randel(2013)没有将其包括在内,但这并不意外,因为Encelia属植物是L. magister的主要食物来源(Snead and Alcock 1985)。除了在Randel(2013)上发表的记录外,我在这里报告了L. magister的新寄主植物。Lytta magister的分布范围从南加州延伸到亚利桑那州,进入索诺拉西北部和墨西哥的下加利福尼亚半岛,并继续向北延伸到犹他州(Pinto和Clark 2022;Randel 2013)。我于2019年4月25日在加利福尼亚州圣贝纳迪诺县西北部的Searles Valley附近观察了L. magister的摄食行为(图1)。在生物调查期间,偶然地观察到Lytta magister成虫以灌木和牧草为食,并记录了一种新的寄主植物。观察成虫摄食如下:

Its habitus and diagnostic characters are illustrated. This new species belongs to the Pseudocsikia formosana-species group, of which all species are endemic to Taiwan Island. Additionally, we update the identification key to the species of P. formosana-species group.

Ambrosia beetles (Curculionidae: Scolytinae), particularly those in the tribe Xyleborini, are frequently introduced to new locations around the world, including many in the United States. The most recent review of the tribe lists 30 as exotic (Gomez et al. 2018a), and an additional six have been added to the known fauna (Gomez et al. 2018b; Rabaglia et al. 2020; Smith and Cognato 2022; Smith et al. 2019). Cyclorhipidion Hagedorn, 1912 is the second largest xyleborine genus and currently includes 109 species native to Asia, Africa, and Oceania. Six Asian species currently have established populations in North America (Smith and Cognato 2022). Recently, Cyclorhipidion nemesis Smith and Cognato, 2022 was described from specimens in the United States and has since been confirmed to occur in China (Yunnan) (Smith et al. 2022). The species previously established in the US are all closely related, pseudocryptic, and particularly difficult to diagnose. Here we report an additional species found in Florida, which is conspicuously different from the known species.
