Therefore, their diversity provides critical ecological services to different ecosystems, including agroecosystems. This study describes the fauna of dung beetles (Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae) that inhabit cattle ranches in two municipalities of Tabasco, Mexico. From November 2018 to October 2019, 1,400 specimens of this subfamily were collected using pitfall traps baited with cattle feces on ranches located in Tacotalpa and Centro. The most abundant species were the introduced beetles Digitonthophagus gazella (Fabricius) and Euoniticellus intermedius (Reiche). This study shows a scarce presence of roller species and notable differences in the structures of dung beetle assemblages between ranches. Additionally, this study provides a record of nine undocumented species for Tabasco, bringing the total to 27 Scarabaeinae species for the state. This study is the first formal survey to document the diversity of these insects in Tabasco, Mexico.","PeriodicalId":50668,"journal":{"name":"Coleopterists Bulletin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41835825","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}

{"title":"Revision of Microasydates, New Nearctic Genus of Soft-Winged Flower Beetles (Coleoptera: Melyridae: Dasytinae: Listrini)","authors":"M. Gimmel, A. Mayor","doi":"10.1649/0010-065x-76.4.537","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1649/0010-065x-76.4.537","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract A group of four North American dasytine species is carved from the genus Trichochrous Motschulsky, 1860. The genus Microasydates Gimmel and Mayor, new genus (type species: Pristoscelis umbratus LeConte, 1866) is created for these species. This new genus is clearly defined based on several adult male characters, including the presence of a field of coarse black setae concentrated medially on abdominal ventrite 4, slender tibial spurs in combination with the head not distinctly enlarged, lack of a basal strut on abdominal sternite VIII, tegmen membranous apically, and ventral teeth on the median lobe of the aedeagus. Species are distinguished primarily by characters of pronotal shape, setation, female pygidium, and the median lobe of the male aedeagus. Previously described are Microasydates punctipennis (LeConte, 1866), new combination and Microasydates umbratus (LeConte, 1866), new combination. Newly described are Microasydates sanclemente Gimmel and Mayor, new species and Microasydates santabarbara Gimmel and Mayor, new species. The only widespread mainland species is M. umbratus, which occurs almost throughout California across the Great Basin into Utah, while the remainder of the diversity is in the California Channel Islands and Santa Ynez Mountains in Santa Barbara County. Upon examination of type material, Trichochrous indigens Casey, 1895, Trichochrous nubilatus Casey, 1895, Trichochrous separatus Casey, 1895, Trichochrous suffusus Casey, 1895, Trichochrous testaceus Casey, 1895, and Trichochrous pratensis Blaisdell, 1924 are all considered new junior subjective synonyms of M. umbratus. Trichochrous fulvovestitus Casey, 1895, status restored, and its junior synonym, Trichochrous propinquus Casey, 1895, are removed from synonymy with M. umbratus and retained in the genus Trichochrous. Adults of Microasydates are active during mid to late summer, and aggregate, often in large numbers, on the flowers of a wide variety of mostly perennial plants, where they mate and apparently feed on pollen, nectar, and occasionally small arthropods. Seasonality data and known host plant associations are provided along with species treatments.","PeriodicalId":50668,"journal":{"name":"Coleopterists Bulletin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45755434","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}

The new species has characters intermediate between two previously defined informal groups, one comprising wingless males with reduced eyes, one with apparently winged males with well-developed eyes. The new species is apparently flightless, but has moderately well-developed eyes. We assess its phylogenetic placement, using DNA and morphology, and find it to be sister to a clade comprising Prespelea myersae Caterino and Vásquez-Vélez and Prespelea enigma Caterino and Vásquez-Vélez.

The species name P. pensylvanica (also P. pennsylvanica) has been applied erroneously for decades and as a result, entomological collections and publications are replete with misidentifications. In the absence of type specimens, Herbert S. Barber applied the name P. pensylvanica to the diminutive Mid-Atlantic tidal marsh-inhabiting “dot-dash” flashing species in 1951. To stabilize the genus Photuris Dejean, we made a concerted effort to locate the original type series, including the holotype, but were unsuccessful. As such, we briefly summarize the history of the taxon, accept Barber's designation, provide the first modern description of the species, designate a neotype from the proper type locality of Wilmington, Delaware, USA, and review its confirmed distribution. Thus far, the name-bearing taxon is recognized only from the freshwater tidal lowlands of the Chesapeake Bay and Delaware Bay estuaries. The species should be looked for in freshwater tidal marshes both north and south of these estuaries.","PeriodicalId":50668,"journal":{"name":"Coleopterists Bulletin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47026007","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}
