AnonymousobálkaKlapalekiana 35(3–4): Miroslav BartákTwo new species of Rhamphomyia subgenus Lundstroemiella (Diptera: Empididae) Klapalekiana 35(3–4): 95-102

Abstract: Rhamphomyia (Lundstroemiella) sellaensis sp. n. and R. (L.) olympiana sp. n. are described. Female of R. (L.) freyi Barták, 1985 is described. Lectotypes of R. (L.) hybotina (Zetterstedt, 1838) and R. (L.) tenuicomis (Zetterstedt, 1838) are designated and the synonymy of these two taxa is confirmed. A key to the European species of the Rhamphomyia Meigen, 1822 subgenus Lundstroemiella Frey, 1922 is presented.

Jiří HájekNew and interesting records of diving beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) from Slovakia Klapalekiana 35(3–4): 103-104

Abstract: Distributional data of three dytiscids from Slovakia are presented. Nebrioporus elegans (Panzer, 1794) is recorded for the first time. Additional records of rare species Bidessus delicatulus (Schaum, 1844) and Agabus unguicularis C. G. Thomson, 1867 from the territory are given.

Jiří HávaAnthrenus (Helocerus) polonicus (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) – potvrzení výskytu na území SlovenskaKlapalekiana 35(3–4): 105-106

Abstract: The first reliable record of Anthrenus (Helocerus) polonicus Mroczkowski, 1951 from Slovakia is reported.

Jan HorákReview of the "Calycina group of genera" (Coleoptera: Mordellidae: Mordellini)Klapalekiana 35(3–4): 107-128

Abstract: Generic classification of the “Calycina group of genera” is defined and all species belonging to this group are listed. Among the names of the genus group following new synonymies are proposed: Phungia Pic, 1922 = Calycellina Pic 1932 syn. n., Dollmania Franciscolo, 1961 syn. n. and Macrotomoxia Pic, 1922 = Higehananomia Kóno, 1935 syn. n. New combinations are proposed: Phungia scraptiiformis (Franciscolo, 1961), P. trotommoides (Franciscolo, 1962) (from Dollmania); P. bomeensis (Blair, 1922), P. sudanensis (Ermisch, 1968) and P. rufa (Pic, 1932) (from Calycina)', Macrotomoxia gardneri (Blair, 1931) (from Higehananomia) and Paraphungia tarsalis (Blair, 1922) (from Calycina Blair, 1922 [= Calycella Blair, 1922 non Allmann, 1864]). New name Phungia pici nom. n. is proposed for Phungia rufa (Pic, 1932) non Pic, 1922. New synonymies Macrotomoxia castanea Pic, 1922 = Higehananomia palpalis Kóno, 1935, Calycina guineensis (Blair, 1922) = C. impressa Pic, 1931 and Paraphungia tarsalis (Blair, 1922) = P. laosensis Ermisch, 1968 syn. n. are proposed. Phungia rufa Pic, 1922, P. pici nom. n., Macrotomoxia castanea Pic, 1922 and Calycina guineensis (Blair, 1922) are redescribed. Keys to all genera of the “Calycina group” and to all species of Calycina are provided.

Leoš KlimešHarvestman assemblages (Arachnida: Opiliones) in Krkonoše National ParkKlapalekiana 35(3–4): 129-138

Abstract: Harvestmen were collected in 13 localities of Krkonoše National Park from 1988 to 1991 using pitfall traps. Altogether 9106 individuals belonging to ten species were captured. Among them Ischyropsalis hellwigi hellwigi (Panzer, 1794) and Nemastoma triste (C. L. Koch, 1835) are the most interesting finds, rarely reported from the Czech Republic. Canonical correspondence analysis of the harvestman assemblages showed little differentiation between individual assemblages, except for those in the alpine zone, where species richness sharply declined and only Mitopus inorio (Fabricius, 1799) and Platybunus bucephalus (C. L. Koch, 1835) remained abundant. The effect of the herbicide Roundup on the number of opilionid taxa and specimens was non-significant. However, the abundance of Oligolophus tridens (C. Koch, 1836) was higher in the traps located in the treated Rumex alpinus stand.

Zdeněk LaštůvkaRecenzeKlapalekiana 35(3–4): 139-140Jakub Prokop & André NelTertiary termite from the Bílina mine locality in northern Bohemia (Isoptera: Hodotermitidae) Klapalekiana 35(3–4): 141-144

Abstract: The first finding of a fossil termite (Hodotermitidae: Ubneriella sp.) from the Tertiary (Lower Miocene) deposits in the Czech Republic (northern Bohemia, the Bílina mine) is described an illustrated. Its occurrence could be helpful for the reconstruction of the study site and palaeoenvironmental conditions.

Václav TýrRozšíření druhu Aphodius (Coprimorphus) scrutator (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) v Čechách, na Moravě a na SlovenskuKlapalekiana 35(3–4): 145-156

Abstract: Data on the distribution of Aphodius (Coprimorphus) scrutator (Herbst, 1789) in Bohemia, Moravia and Slovakia obtained from literature sources and 70 private and museum collections are recorded and summarized in the grid map. Changes in the occurrence of the species in the studied area, especially reasons of probably increasing population density in Bohemia and Moravia in the last decades, are briefly discussed.

Jiří VávraNotes on bionomics of Gnorimoschema steueri (Lepidoptera: Geiechiidae)Klapalekiana 35(3–4): 157-159

Abstract: The development of larvae of Gnorimoschema steueri Povolný, 1975 collected in the Český kras karst in central Bohemia and near Brno in southern Moravia has been observed in laboratory conditions. The larvae are miners that feed on Aster amellus L. They form conspicuous whitish mines in the ground leaves of the host plant and hide in a tubelet that is about 1 -2 cm long and built with silk and small soil grains. Larvae are capable of transfer to nearby plants if the conductive tissues of the host plant has been destroyed. The pupal cocoons are about 8 mm long and 2.5 mm in diameter, built just below the soil surface and covered by sand grains. The species inhabits rocky limestone steppes on edges of thermophilous oak forests with sufficiently dense populations of Aster amellus.

Jiří Beneš & Martin KonvičkaFaunistic records from the Czech Republic – 86. Lepidoptera: NoctuidaeKlapalekiana 35(3–4): 160-160Jiří VávraNotes on bionomics of Kessleria alpicella (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae), with confirmation of its occurrence in BohemiaKlapalekiana 35(3–4): 161-163

Abstract: Kessleria alpicella (Stainton, 1851) has been found in association with its host plant Saxifraga paniculata Miller in the Český kras (= Bohemian karst) protected landscape area in central Bohemia. The larva is a leaf miner that hides among withered ground leaves of the host plant. Larvae of the first generation probably live from August to April. Their development continues at low temperatures during autumn and winter. Adults emerge in May within two weeks of pupation. Larvae of the second generation live from June to July, and adults emerge at the end of July and in August. The finding near the village Svatý Jan pod Skalou confirms the occurrence of K. alpicella in Bohemia 129 years after the first record and represents the lowest altitude (280 m a.s.l.) so far known for this mountain moth species.
