In this study, we examined the morphology, genetics and distribution of the members of the Merodon chalybeus subgroup (M. aureus species group): M. chalybeus Wiedemann in Meigen, 1822, M. minutus Strobl, 1893 and M. robustus Veselić, Vujić & Radenković, 2017. Two of the species, M. chalybeus and M. minutus, are morphologically very similar and often misidentified in the literature. Here, by employing an integrative taxonomic approach we provide strong evidence for the separation of M. chalybeus and M. minutus. Our results show their clear allopatric distribution: M. minutus on the Balkan Peninsula, Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica, while M. chalybeus is a western Mediterranean species distributed on the Iberian Peninsula and northwest Africa. Data on the distribution of M. robustus were updated, with new records from Cyprus, Israel and Turkey, besides its type locality (Samos in Greece). We provide evidence for M. chalybeus and M. minutus representing a species complex, named the M. chalybeus complex, which together with M. robustus constitute the M. chalybeus subgroup.
在本研究中,我们研究了Merodon chalybeus亚群(金黄色葡萄球菌种群)成员的形态、遗传和分布:M. chalybeus Wiedemann In Meigen, 1822, M. minutus Strobl, 1893, M. robustus veseliki, vujiovic & radenkovovic, 2017。两个物种,M. chalybeus和M. minutus,在形态上非常相似,经常在文献中被错误识别。本文采用综合分类学方法,为M. chalybeus和M. minutus的分离提供了有力的证据。结果表明:M. minutus分布于巴尔干半岛、西西里岛、撒丁岛和科西嘉岛,M. chalybeus为地中海西部种,分布于伊比利亚半岛和非洲西北部。此外,还更新了粗壮菌分布的数据,除其类型产地(希腊的萨摩斯)外,还增加了来自塞浦路斯、以色列和土耳其的新记录。我们提供的证据表明,M. chalybeus和M. minutus代表一个物种复合体,命名为M. chalybeus复合体,与M. robustus一起构成M. chalybeus亚群。

Termite nests act as shelters for a wide variety of invertebrates. We studied the Corotocini termitophile fauna (Staphylinidae, Aleocharinae) in nine Nasutitermes corniger nests and nine N. ephratae nests to test the resource size (larger nests should host more social-parasite species than smaller ones) and resource concentration (nests occurring closer to each other should host a greater richness and variety of social parasites) hypotheses. In total, we found 358 Corotocini individuals. Regression analysis did not reveal a relationship between species richness or population size of termitophiles and nest volume. Thus, we rejected the resource size hypotheses as a driver of termitophile diversity. Neither did distance between nests explain the richness of their fauna; thus, the resource concentration hypothesis was also rejected. In conclusion, we suggest that biological aspects, such as dispersal dynamics and species traits likely explain the diversity of termitophiles.

Understanding the effects of interspecific competition on genetic diversity will deepen our knowledge on species evolution. In the case of Calopteryx splendens and C. virgo, sympatric damselfly species, interspecific interference competition by C. virgo has remarkable effects on territoriality of C. splendens resulting in reproductive character displacement. Since territoriality is correlated with phenotype and mating success, we investigated the effects of interspecific interference competition on genetic diversity of C. splendens populations. Using amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP), we determined the population genetic structure of 12 C. splendens populations and used the genetic diversity information to relate heterozygosity of C. splendens to abundance of C. virgo in sympatric populations. We found that heterozygosity of C. splendens males decreased with increasing abundance of C. virgo males. This result most likely reflects changes in effective population size due to interspecific interference competition and shows an effect on genetic structure in damselfly populations.
