Abstract The checkered beetle genus Ababa is revised for the first time. Morphological evidence suggests that Thaneroclerinae and Isoclerinae comprise a monophyletic group. Based on the positional relationships between the pronotal projection and the prothoracic intercoxal process the isoclerine genus Ababa Casey is taken out of synonymy with Isoclerus Lewis. Cleridopsis Champion is considered to be a junior synonym of Ababa Casey. On the basis of the tarsal formula, the genus Allothaneroclerus Corporaal, with a tarsal formula of 5-5-5, is removed from Isoclerinae, whose genera show a 5-4-4 tarsal formula, and placed into the subfamily Thaneroclerinae. Ababa specimens were collected in fungi niches and it is postulated that the elongated stomodaeum found in adults serve as a crop to process soft food such as the eggs, larvae, and pupae of fungivorous prey. Ababa comprises A. adona Opitz, new species, A. epiiska Opitz, new species, A. granaria Opitz, new species, A. latimana (Champion), and A. tantilla (LeConte). A lectotype was designated for Ababa latimana (Champion). It is hypothesized that the ancestral stock of Ababa and Parateneroclerus evolved in the mid-Tertiary forests of South America. Included in this work are: A brief discussion about Ababa natural history, a discussion of Ababa phylogeny based on a phylogenetic tree generated by WINCLADA in conjunction with NONA, a Bootstrap consensus tree, a key to Ababa species, 10 scanning electron micrographs, one distribution map, four photographs of the aedeagus, and six color habitus photographs.

Abstract We characterized the taxonomic richness of epigean coleopterans and assessed the sampling quality in Llullaillaco National Park (Antofagasta Region, Chile). The study was conducted in representative sites of the national park during the years 2017 and 2018. A total of 185 specimens were captured, belonging to 21 species grouped in 19 genera and 10 families. Entomochilus Solier and Praocis Eschscholtz being the only genera with more than one species. The accumulation curves demonstrating that the inventory of epigean coleopteran richness is still incomplete for the sampled area. This work is the first inventory of arthropod species richness in high-Andean ecosystems, but additional samplings in other habitats and seasons are required to expand the inventory of coleopteran fauna for this protected area.

Abstract Notes on nesting and gregarious behavior of the blue nest renting wasp Chalybion japonicum (Gribodo) are presented. Three focal nests, freshly attached to the walls of an abandoned house belonging to the mud dauber wasp Sceliphron madraspatanum were occupied by C. japonicum, suggesting that the wasp is a nest invader of S. madraspatanum. Aggregation of C. japonicum males on the string of the sack, which hung loosely beneath the ceiling, undoubtedly plays a role to help males finding females easily rather than by having to take flight. Discussion on relationship of occurrence between C. japonicum and C. bengalense is included. The new appellation “nest renting wasps” for Chalybion species is suggested.

Abstract Podisus distinctus (Stäl, 1860) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) is a predator of defoliating caterpillars of Eucalyptus spp. (Myrtaceae). This South-American asopine can be reared in the laboratory using Tenebrio molitor L., 1758 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) pupae as alternative prey and released in the field. The movement observed in T. molitor pupae can be a defensive strategy. This makes it significant to study the development and reproduction of asopine predatory stinkbugs using transected pupae of this prey. The aim was to evaluate the performance of P. distinctus with transected or non-transected T. molitor pupae in the laboratory. The ventral nerve cord of T. molitor pupae was transected utilizing surgical forceps (T1, transected pupae), while the control included non-transected pupae (T2, non-transected pupae). These pupae were offered to P. distinctus nymphs and adults. We evaluated the duration and body mass of instars III, IV and V; duration from instar V to the adult stage; body mass of the newly emerged adults; adult sex ratio; total number of egg masses, eggs per female and egg mass; total nymphs per female and egg mass; percentage of nymphs hatched; female longevity, and the pre-oviposition, oviposition and post-oviposition periods of this predator. The body mass of P. distinctus adults was 7.29% greater with the non-transected T. molitor pupae; however, the other parameters showed similar values between treatments. Non-transected T. molitor pupae are preferred for rearing the predator P. distinctus.

Abstract Ladona exusta (Say) is a small libelluline dragonfly restricted to the Atlantic coastal region of North America from southern Newfoundland to Virginia. Based on 20 nymphs collected in shallow ponds in Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York, we describe the final unknown nymph of the genus. The palps have 5 major setae, differing from its more widespread congeners, L. deplanata and L. julia, which normally have 6 on each side, sometimes 7 (rarely 5 or 8). Nearly all L. exusta nymphs can be separated from L. deplanata using the number of palpal setae (5 v. 6) in conjunction with the ratio of epiproct length to metafemur length (0.42–0.48 v. 0.49–0.67). Ladona exusta is smaller than L. julia in a number of characters, the most distinctive of which are prementum length (3.70–3.90 mm vs. 3.90–4.75 mm) and prementum maximum width (3.35–3.85 mm vs. 3.90–4.85 mm).
拉多纳·埃苏斯塔(Say)是一种小型的libelluline蜻蜓,分布于从纽芬兰南部到弗吉尼亚州的北美大西洋沿岸地区。根据在马萨诸塞州,新泽西州和纽约州的浅池塘中收集的20只若虫,我们描述了该属中最后一种未知的若虫。触须有5个主要的刚毛,不同于其更广泛的同类,L. deplanata和L. julia,它们通常每侧有6个,有时有7个(很少有5或8个)。几乎所有的L. exusta若虫都可以通过触须的数量(5 vs .6)和外稃长度与后掌长度的比值(0.42-0.48 vs . 0.49-0.67)与L. deplanata分开。毛蕊草在许多性状上都小于李草,其中最显著的是前叶长度(3.70 ~ 3.90 mm)和最大宽度(3.35 ~ 3.85 mm)。

Abstract Joseph L. Lacroix proposed a total of 68 names for the superorder Neuropterida: the great majority (n = 53) are within the Chrysopidae, and the remaining (n = 15) are dispersed among five other families. Two of the names are for chrysopid genera – Chrysacanthia Lacroix 1923 and Peyerimhoffina Lacroix 1920, both of which persist as valid today. Most, if not all, of the types for Lacroix's names are believed, without confirmation, to have been deposited in the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris (MNHN). In this report, we list all of the species-level and subspecific names that Lacroix proposed for Neuropterida, and we summarize the published information on the name-bearing type(s) and the current taxonomic status for each. Then, we report on our efforts to locate and catalog the types in the MNHN, with an emphasis on Chrysopidae. We found types in the MNHN for 17 of the 21 chrysopid species-level names, and for 17 of the 30 subspecific names. Here, we designate nine new species-level lectotypes and twelve new subspecific lectotypes. We report the current condition and locations for all of the recovered chrysopid species and subspecific types, as well as label data and the sex for all of the species-level types. Finally, to help expidite future searches for types of the nine species and six subspecies that Lacroix proposed for neuropteridan families other than Chrysopidae, we report the results of our brief search in the MNHN. Specifically, we found types for three species; their condition and locations in the collection are reported. Search for the others will require more focused effort than our time allowed.
Joseph L. Lacroix为超目神经翼目(Neuropterida)提出了68个名称,其中绝大多数(n = 53)属于蝶科,其余(n = 15)分散在其他五个科。其中两个名字是菊花属——Chrysacanthia Lacroix 1923和Peyerimhoffina Lacroix 1920,这两个名字今天仍然有效。拉克鲁瓦名字的大部分(如果不是全部的话)被认为存放在巴黎国家自然历史博物馆(MNHN),但没有得到证实。在本文中,我们列出了Lacroix提出的所有神经翼目的种级和亚种级名称,并总结了已发表的关于每种命名类型及其分类现状的信息。然后,我们报告了我们在MNHN中定位和编目的努力,重点是蝶科。我们发现了21个菊花种级名称中的17个,以及30个亚种名称中的17个的MNHN类型。在这里,我们指定了9个新的种级选型和12个新的亚特异性选型。我们报告了所有已恢复的蛹种和亚特异类型的现状和位置,以及所有种级类型的标签数据和性别。最后,为了帮助加快未来对拉克鲁瓦提出的除蝶科外的九个种和六个亚种的搜索,我们在MNHN上报告了我们的简短搜索结果。具体来说,我们找到了三个物种的类型;报告了它们在收藏中的状况和位置。寻找其他人需要比我们的时间更集中的精力。

Search for the others will require more focused effort than our time allowed.","PeriodicalId":51040,"journal":{"name":"Entomologica Americana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2017-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83883616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Abstract The Kinsey collection of gall wasps deposited in the American Museum of Natural History was studied. Some species of the genus Andricus were originally described based on cotypes: A. furnaceus, A. incomptum, A. marmoreus, A. peredurus, and A. tecturnarum. The type series of A. furnaceus and A. peredurus were previously studied and lectotypes were designated. Lectotypes are here designated for A. incomptum, A. marmoreus, and A. tecturnarum. Comments on the type series and photographs of the lectotypes and galls of these species are included. Also some generic synonymies and some other Andricus species are discussed.
