Geographic Variation In U. S. Populations Of The Tiger Beetle Cicindela Obsoleta Say (Coleoptera: Cicindelidae), Jonathan R. Mawdsley
Insecta Mundi
Geographic variation and subspecific taxonomy of United States populations of the tiger beetle Cicindela obsoleta Say are reviewed. Study of primary types and 1,424 museum specimens indicates that four subspecific entities are present in the U.S., for which the valid names are C. o. obsoleta Say, C. o. santaclarae Bates, C. o. vulturina LeConte, and C. o. neojuvenilis Vogt. All four subspecies are illustrated, including many color variants. ArcView Geographic Information System (GIS) computer software is used to study the distribution of these subspecies in the United States. Cicindela o. obsoleta and C. o. santaclarae are only partially allopatric, with …

A New Fossil Species Of Stag Beetle From Dominican Republic Amber, With Australasian Connections (Coleoptera: Lucanidae), Robert E. Woodruff
A New Fossil Species Of Stag Beetle From Dominican Republic Amber, With Australasian Connections (Coleoptera: Lucanidae), Robert E. Woodruff
Insecta Mundi
The first New World amber member of the family Lucanidae is described from the Dominican Republic. Its age is presumed to be Miocene (20-30 million YBP). It is also the fourth known amber species, the second Miocene fossil species, the second fossil species in the subfamily Syndesinae, and the first species (fossil or extant) of Lucanidae from the entire Caribbean. It is especially interesting because it is a member of the Australasian genus Syndesus MacLeay. Other such disjunct Dominican amber insect fossils are also discussed.

The Milliped Families Spirostreptidae (Spirostreptida) And Paradoxosomatidae (Polydesmida) In The Middle East; First Records Of The Diplopoda From Saudi Arabia, Rowland M. Shelley
The Milliped Families Spirostreptidae (Spirostreptida) And Paradoxosomatidae (Polydesmida) In The Middle East; First Records Of The Diplopoda From Saudi Arabia, Rowland M. Shelley
Insecta Mundi
The class Diplopoda, represented by the families Spirostreptidae (Spirostreptida) and Paradoxosomatidae (Polydesmida), is recorded from Saudi Arabia for the first time. Archispirostreptus transmarinus Hoffman, 1965 (Spirostreptidae) inhabits the Jabal Al-Hijaz Mountains in the southwest, and the Paradoxosomatidae, represented by an unidentifiable, indigenous female, occurs in a “wadi” in the center of the country. Other Middle Eastern familial records are documented, and occurrences in the Arabian Peninsula are mapped. Males, necessary to identify the paradoxosomatid, may be encountered if samplings are timed to coincide with seasonal rains.
Records For Bittacus Hangingflies And Panorpa Scorpionflies (Mecoptera: Bittacidae And Panorpidae) In Florida, Louis A. Somma, James C. Dunford
Records For Bittacus Hangingflies And Panorpa Scorpionflies (Mecoptera: Bittacidae And Panorpidae) In Florida, Louis A. Somma, James C. Dunford
Insecta Mundi
We provide new county records for four species of panorpids (Panorpa americana Swederus, Panorpa lugubris Swederus, Panorpa sp. undetermined, and one undescribed species from the Panorpa rufescens Rambur species group) and two species of bittacids (Bittacus pilicornis Westwood, Bittacus punctiger Westwood), and call attention to a previously published county record for another species, Panorpa rufa Gray, in Florida. Additionally, we reject a previously published record for the scorpionfly Panorpa claripennis Hine in Florida, which we overlooked in our 2008 preliminary checklist of Florida mecopterans. The record for P. lugubris in Miami-Dade County is the southernmost record for any …

Beetle Species Diversity In The Lesser Antilles Islands: How Many Species Are Really There?, Stewart B. Peck
Beetle Species Diversity In The Lesser Antilles Islands: How Many Species Are Really There?, Stewart B. Peck
Insecta Mundi
Recent extensive and intensive field work by the team of M. A. Ivie on the Lesser Antillean island of Montserrat suggests that a mean of 827 beetle species may be expected on that island. This datum makes possible the generation of hypotheses of the probable beetle species diversity on other islands of the Lesser Antilles as a function of the areas of the islands. Figures are given for the presently known, estimated total, and estimated number of unknown species for each principal island. This predicts that many hundreds (if not thousands) of beetle species remain to be discovered. This is …
The Indo-Australian Weevil Genus Platytenes Pascoe, 1870 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Cryptorhynchinae), Gregory P. Setliff, Peter A. Larson
The Indo-Australian Weevil Genus Platytenes Pascoe, 1870 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Cryptorhynchinae), Gregory P. Setliff, Peter A. Larson
Insecta Mundi
The formerly monotypic weevil genus Platytenes Pascoe (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Cryptorhynchinae: Cryptorhynchini: Cryptorhynchina) as treated here, includes two commonly encountered and broadly distributed species in the eastern Indo-Australian region. Label data indicate that both species are associated with semicultivated betel palm (Areca catechu L., Arecaceae) and human mediated dispersal is suggested to have influenced their present-day distribution. Herein, we provide a diagnosis for Platytenes and redescribe its type species, P. varius Pascoe. We also describe P. occultus Setliff and Larson, a new species from the Solomon Islands. New host and locality records are provided, including the first records of the …

Monographic Revision Of The Genus Aegidinus Arrow (1904) And Generic Phylogeny Of The World Orphninae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Orphninae), Julia Colby
Insecta Mundi
A taxonomic revision was performed on the New World scarabaeoid genus Aegidinus Arrow (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Orphninae). Twelve new species and three previously described species are included in the revision. Keys to New World genera, species of the genus Aegidinus, and distribution maps are provided. Phylogenetic analyses of the world genera of the Orphninae were conducted using 30 adult, morphological characters from representatives of 13 of the 14 genera and three out-group taxa. The subfamily Orphninae is a strongly supported monophyletic group (bootstrap support 88-90%) with respect to the chosen out-group. Characters that support the Orphninae are: mandibles not sickle …

The Beetles Of Barbados, West Indies (Insecta: Coleoptera): Diversity, Distribution And Faunal Structure, Stewart Peck
The Beetles Of Barbados, West Indies (Insecta: Coleoptera): Diversity, Distribution And Faunal Structure, Stewart Peck
Insecta Mundi
The beetle fauna of the island of Barbados is summarized. It is now known to contain 202 genera, and 254 species (in 40 families), of which 232 are named at the species level. Undoubtedly, the actual numbers of species on Barbados are much higher than now known. Nine species are possibly endemic to the island, 15 have been intentionally introduced, and 51 have probably been accidentally introduced through human activity. The remaining 157 named species may occur naturally as a result of natural over-water dispersal processes. These species mostly have a wide distribution in the Antilles and Latin America. The …

We document the presence of Larra bicolor Fabricius (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae) in 46 of Florida’s 67 counties. The species is represented by two stocks. The first (released in 1981) originated in Pará, Brazil, but was obtained from Puerto Rico, and became established in Broward County in southern Florida. The second (released in 1988) originated in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia, and became established in Alachua County in northern Florida. The Bolivian stock, aided by additional satellite releases from Alachua County, is now widely distributed. The species probably occupies all counties in central and northern Florida, but may yet be absent …
