Distribution of Onthophagus vacca and O. medius (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae, Scarabaeinae) in Romania
Morphological and molecular data indicate that two valid species exist in Europe within the O. vacca group of species, O. vacca (Linnaeus, 1767) and O. medius (Kugelann, 1792) (Roy et al., 2015). This is supported also by the fact that they are widely sympatric (Rössner et. al., 2010). The research of Rössner et. al. (2010) mentions for the first time the species O. medius for Romania. The aim of our study is to check specimens from major museum collections and some personal collections from the country and to assign them to O. medius or O. vacca.We have examined 417 specimens belonging to the following collections: National Museum of Natural History ''Grigore Antipa'' Bucharest, Brukenthal National Museum- Natural History Museum Department from Sibiu and the personal collections of authors. We have extracted elevation data for each specimen and we have created distribution maps.The biogeographic distribution for Romania shows the ranges of O. vacca and O. medius overlap and they are found in all the country's bioregions. Our study shows a high ecological plasticity in both species. Our data apparently indicate a preference for altitudes below 500 meters, possibly influenced by non-random sampling.
期刊介绍:
Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle "Grigore Antipa" (The Journal of "Grigore Antipa" National Museum of Natural History) is an international, open access, peer-reviewed journal devoted to zoological research that is published biannually by the "Grigore Antipa" National Museum of Natural History from Bucharest (Romania). It publishes original research or review articles dealing with all aspects of general zoology (taxonomy, systematics, evolutionism, faunistics, zoogeography, palaeozoology, animal ecology, invasive species of animals, parasitism, biodiversity conservation). Also, some book reviews, anniversaries and obituaries of some personalities of science world can be accepted to be published in this journal. In the present, the only language accepted for this journal is English. The scope of the journal is to publish, disseminate and provide open access to the results of the original studies made in different zoological fields, in Romania and worldwide. Every submitted manuscript is subject to peer-review, being reviewed by at least two peers qualified to evaluate it. Distinguished authorities form the international advisory board which guarantees the high scientific profile of the journal.
