The taxonomic position of Onthophagus (Palaeonthophagus) lemuroides d’Orbigny, 1898 and Onthophagus
(Palaeonthophagus) fortigibber Reitter, 1909 is discussed (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae: Onthophagini).
A key to the species is given. Photos of type specimens of the two taxa and significant chromatic varieties, and
drawings of aedeagi are presented.
Evidence is presented that the subspecies Chrysobothris thoracica guadeloupensis Descarpentries, 1981
(Coleoptera: Buprestidae) should be recognized at the species level. Character evidence is provided to separate C.
guadeloupensis, new status, from C. thoracica Fabricius, 1798. Both species are illustrated with habitus photographs
and images of the male genitalia.
Deutsch im Kreis Schanfigg
(2012)
In dieser Arbeit wird unter Schanfigg nach Kessler "Schanfigg im weitern Sinne" verstanden, d.h. die Dörfer des politischen Kreises Schanfigg [...]. Da Dialekte im Gegensatz zu Hochsprachen nicht-normierte Sprachvarietäten darstellen, zeichnen sich die Ortsgrammatiken durch eine jeweils enorme Formenvielfalt in lautlicher und in morphologischer Hinsicht aus. Dies war denn auch eines der Ziele der Untersuchung: Mit Hilfe der Prager Phonologie und der auf ihr beruhenden Morphologie sollte aufgezeigt werden, wie groß die allophonische und allomorphische Bandbreite ist, derer sich die Sprecher im Gespräch unbewußt bedienen. Sehr schön läßt sich dies anhand der Verbalmorphologie bei den unregelmäßigen Verben (Kurzverben) aufzeigen. Ein weiteres Ziel der Untersuchung war es, die Stellung der Ortsdialekte des Schanfiggs und ihres Gesamts, also das Schanfigger Diasystem, innerhalb der dem Schanfigg benachbarten Mundarten darzustellen. Idealerweise hätten das Prättigau, das Churwaldner Tal und die Churer bzw. Churerrheintaler Mundarten herangezogen werden müssen. Da aber leider keine Untersuchungen zu den Verhältnissen im Prättigau und im Churwaldner Tal vorhanden sind, wurden die Schanfigger Verhältnisse mit denjenigen der Stadt Chur (vgl. Eckhardt 1991) und des Deutschen im Bezirk Imboden (vgl. Toth und Ebneter 1996) verglichen.
The diplopod orders Callipodida and Polydesmida, and their respective families Abacionidae and
Xystodesmidae, are initially recorded from South Dakota as is Polydesmidae from North Dakota. Other new records of
indigenous taxa include Abacion Rafinesque, 1820/A. texense (Loomis, 1937) and Pleuroloma/P. flavipes, both by
Rafinesque, 1820, from South Dakota, and Pseudopolydesmus Attems, 1898/P. serratus (Say, 1821) from Alabama,
Connecticut, Delaware, New Hampshire, North Dakota, South Carolina, and the District of Columbia. New records of
Aniulus garius Chamberlin, 1912, A. (Hakiulus) d. diversifrons (Wood, 1867), and Oriulus venustus (Wood, 1864)
(Julida: Parajulidae) are provided for western Minnesota and/or eastern North Dakota. Published records from these
states are summarized, and the introduced taxa, Julidae/Cylindroiulus Verhoeff, 1894/C. caeruleocinctus (Wood, 1864)
and Paradoxosomatidae/Oxidus Cook, 1911/O. gracilis (C. L. Koch, 1847), are newly recorded from the Dakotas. The
distribution of P. serratus, which extends from Maine to South Carolina and the Florida panhandle, west to Texas, and
north to Fargo, North Dakota is described and discussed. This distribution exhibits a prominent southeastern lacuna
which we hypothesize suggests replacement by younger, more successful species, as postulated for a similar distributional
gap in Scytonotus granulatus (Say, 1821).
The milliped genus Euryurus Koch, 1847, and the species, E. leachii (Gray, 1832) (Polydesmida: Euryuridae), are recorded from three sites on the northern part of Crowley’s Ridge (Cross, Lee, and Poinsett counties), Arkansas, where the only prior familial records are of Auturus evides (Bollman, 1887). Coupled with the published locality of E. leachii in Phillips Co., at the southern extremity of the Ridge, the only known occurrences of both the genus and species in Arkansas and west of the Mississippi River are in this physiographic feature. The Arkansas population is geographically peripheral but anatomically intermediate between the two recognized subspecies, E. l. leachii and E. l. fraternus Hoffman, 1978, and we do not assign it to a race. Molecular investigations seem necessary to resolve relationships in the “E. leachii complex.”
With the discovery of Mitocybe auriportae Cook and Loomis, 1928 (Platydesmida: Andrognathidae) in Alameda County (Co.), east of San Francisco Bay, a potential overall distribution in coastal California is projected based on those of partly congruent diplopods. The area extends from northern Mendocino to central Monterey cos. and inland to central Lake, Yolo, and Santa Clara cos.
