Abstract: Diurnal activity of Paussus (Klugipaussus) otini Antoine, 1943 in High Atlas, Morocco was observed and the ant genus Camponotus Mayr, 1861 is reported as its probable host. Data on the mass occurrence of Paussus (Katapaussus) thomsoni Reiche in J. Thomson, 1860 in the evening before a storm at Douz, Tunisia, are presented. New records of Paussus otini from Morocco and of Paussus thomsoni from Morocco and Tunisia are given. Notes on the distribution and taxonomy of both paussine species are supplemented. A brief discussion on the diurnal activity of the adults of Paussus otini and of Paussinae in general is given, including original data on the diurnal activity of individuals of the subgenus Cochliopaussus Kolbe, 1927 in Madagascar (Toamasina province).

(Coleoptera: Carabidae) from IranKlapalekiana 36(4): 225-232Abstract: Amara (Amara) elborzensis sp. n. from Iran is described, figured, and compared with closely related species A. (A.) ovata (Fabricius, 1792), A. (A.) saphyrea Dejean, 1828, A. (A.) similata (Gyllenhal, 1810), and with additional related species. It belongs to the Amara (A.) similata species-aggregate which is here re-defined. Males in this species-aggregate are characterized by a row of setae on the inner side of the mesotibiae. Amara (Amara) elborzensis sp. n. is described from Caspian provinces of Mazandaran and Gilan, and from northwestern part of Khorasan province. It lives in the Talesh Mountains and on the northern slopes of the Elborz Mountains (i.e. in Hyrcanian zoogeographical subregion) in moist, deciduous forests at the altitude of ca. 300-2000 m a.s.l. It inhabits also oak forests in the neighboring mountains of the northwestern part of Khorasan province.
Daniel Juřena et al.Zajímavé nálezy listorohých brouků (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) na území Čech, Moravy a SlovenskaKlapalekiana 36(4): 233-257Abstract: New faunistic data on 72 species belonging to the superfamily Scarabaeoidea from the territory of Bohemia, Moravia and Slovakia are given. The data have been obtained from 90 private and museum collections. The currently known distribution of all mentioned species in the territory under study is briefly summarized. Notes on biology and habitats of some species are included. Aphodius zenkeri German 1813 is recorded as new for Moravia and Homaloplia ruricola (Fabricius, 1775) as new for Bohemia. Precise data on occurrence of Aphodius quadriguttatus (Herbst, 1783) and Aphodius foetens (Fabricius, 1787) in Moravia are given for the first time. The presence of Geotrupes mutator (Marsham, 1802) in Slovakia is confirmed after more than 30 years. The occurrence of Onthophagus taunts (Schreber, 1 759) in Moravia is confirmed after 35 years. Aphodius scrofa (Fabricius, 1787) is recorded from Moravia after almost 40 years. Aphodius lugens Creutzer, 1799 is recorded from the Czech Republic after 40 years. The occurrence of Aphodius varions Duftschmid, 1805 in Bohemia is confirmed after 35 years.

Radek MikulášGeologické aspekty činnosti včel (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) v recentních ekosystémech České republikyKlapalekiana 36(4): 275-281Abstract: In the area of the so-called “castellated sandstones” (in central, northern and eastern Bohemia), bioerosive activity of solitary bees may be locally the strongest geological process. The bioerosion shows close interrelationships to abiogenic processes of rock weathering. Subsequently, the bees’ tunnels are affected by several geological processes, namely enlarging of the tunnels by salt erosion, their “halving” during the degradation of surficial rock crusts, and a rapid hardening of the rock surface by a secondary opaline cement. These alterations might complicate the interpretation of the traces of the bees’ activity.

The known distributional range is extended as the species is reported from northern Hungary (in the present delimitation), Slovenia, Croatia and Bulgaria for the first time; further records from Serbia and Romania are given. All available distributional records are mapped. The variability of an additional character of certain diagnostical importance (ratio of antennomere III to II) is discussed. This ratio is positively correlated to the total body size (represented by the pronotal width) in P. (M.) validus, and its values overlap in the latter species and in the closely related P. (A/.) biharicus Jeannel, 1934.

Prunus spinosa (L.) and Pyrus sp. are mentioned as its host plants for the first time. Another host plant is Prunus domestica (L.) in which the development was verified at laboratory conditions. New distributional data from the Slovak Republic, Bulgaria and Turkey and notes on development are given here. Larval galleries and pupal cells are illustrated.
Jaroslav ŠťastnýHyphydrus dongba sp. n. from Yiinnan and taxonomical and distributional notes on the genus Hyphydrus (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) in ChinaKlapalekiana 36(4): 297-306Abstract: Notes on the Chinese species of the genus Hyphydrus liliger, 1802 are provided in this paper. Hyphydrus dongba sp. n., belonging to H. signatus species group (sensu Biström 1982), is described from Yiinnan (southern China) and compared with H. sumatrae Régimbart, 1880. Important diagnostic morphological characters are illustrated. Hyphydrus sumatrae Régimbart, 1880 and H. birmanicus Régimbart, 1888 are reliably recorded from China for the first time. Hyphydrus lyratus lyratus Swartz, 1808 is newly recorded from Yiinnan. Bionomics and distribution of H. excojfieri Régimbart, 1899, H. orientalis Clark, 1863 and H. pulchellus Clark, 1863 is briefly discussed. Ten species of Hyphydrus are presently reliably known from China.

AnobiidaeKlapalekiana 36(4): 307-319Abstract: This catalogue of deathwatch beetles (Anobiidae) of Israel and adjacent areas is part of a recent effort to catalogue the beetle fauna of Israel. Fifty-six species are presented here. Thirty-six species were collected from stated localities in Israel for twenty species more investigation will be necessary to confirm their occurence in Israel fauna. If known, information about the local, regional and global distribution and host plants of each species is included.
