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.","PeriodicalId":50668,"journal":{"name":"Coleopterists Bulletin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48324615","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}

Gimmel","doi":"10.1649/0010-065X-77.2.189","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1649/0010-065X-77.2.189","url":null,"abstract":"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.

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.
