This work summarizes data on 242 species of Diptera belonging to 27 families reared by the author from 248 species of macrofungi and myxomycetes collected in the Czech and Slovak Republics in the years 1998 \– 2010. Most species recorded belong to the family Mycetophilidae (99 species), followed by the families Phoridae (21 spp.), Cecidomyiidae (19 spp.), Drosophilidae (15 spp.), Bolitophilidae (10 spp.), Platypezidae (10 spp.), Muscidae (10 spp.), Sphaeroceridae (8 spp.) and Heleomyzidae (6 spp.). The other families were represented by 5 or less species. For each species a list of hitherto known fungus hosts in the Czech and Slovak Republic is given, including the previous literature records. A systematic list of host fungi with associated insect species is also provided. The first record of any host fungus is given for Mycetophila ostentanea Zaitzev, 1998, Mycetophila sordida van der Wulp, 1874 and Sceptonia flavipuncta Edwards, 1925 (all Mycetophilidae). Comments are also made on larval parasitoids reared from Mycetophilidae and Phoridae.

Observations performed over many years, concerning aspens of a subalpine forest growing in Haute-Maurienne (Savoie), provide clear evidence of a \"climacic\" balance between a population of a Mycetophilid fly, Sciophila bonnevalensis n. sp. and the fungus Phellinus tremulae, a strict parasite of aspen trees above 1800 m. We have recently outlined the disastrous effects of the very low temperatures that occurred during the 2004-2005 winter. attaining -28[degree]C. Very few Sciophila larvae survived to the following summer. At the same time, the protective webs of others were partly destroyed. being reduced to white dots dispersed on the carpophores of Phellinus. Consequently, we thought that an almost irreversible situation had been attained. However, despite a second hard winter (-23[degree]C), the population of Sciophila was again observed to be slowly growing during July 2006. Moreover, the 2006-2007 winter (-17.5[degree]C) was not strongly destructive and consequently we observed a relatively strong increase of the Sciophila population in July 2007: protective webs were eight times as numerous as in July 2005. Nevertheless, this increase in larval activity may have been slightly slowed in 2007 as a consequence of a brief period of frost and snow at the beginning of July. This was strong enough to induce death of Yponomeuta padella larvae everywhere, the nymphosis of which is known to locally hinder Sciophila larval growth. We believe that our climatic and biological observations, patiently built up during many years, could provide a starting point for a more complete study (we give also new results for 2008 and some details for 2011). Such a study concerns only a local geographical and ecological subject, but it could be compared with well-known strong global disturbances observed by eminent specialists. In fact, in these limited, subalpine mountain conditions, it could be possible to take into account some parameters that are relatively easy to evaluate on yearly basis. Thus, we observed that local warming strongly favours the growth of aspen, which can climb along rocky slopes and among frontal moraines of the Arc glacier. After some years, this can consequently enhance Phellinus growth, as described in this work. On the other hand, we still lack knowledge about the effects of wind and snow: are these determinant or minor factors? As detailed here, it is clear that very low winter temperatures affect Phellinus growth and induce Sciophila larval mortality. Such parameters can be easily studied, evaluated, and, in combination, could constitute an appropriate model to investigate local climatic disturbances and perhaps even serve as a reference for comparisons with similar studies undertaken elsewhere, in other biotopes

Members of the genus Arachnocampa (glowworms) use an unusual predatory strategy: larvae bioluminesce to lure positively phototropic insects into their adhesive webs. We investigated the metabolic costs associated with bioluminescence and web maintenance in larval Arachnocampa flava. The mean rate of CO2 production ( _V CO2) during continuous bioluminescence was 4.38 ll h-1 {\textpm} 0.78 (SEM). The mean _V CO2 of inactive, non-bioluminescing larvae was 3.49 {\textpm} 0.35 ll h-1. The mean _V CO2 during web maintenance when not bioluminescencing was 8.95 {\textpm} 1.78 ll h-1, a value significantly lower than that measured during trap construction by other predatory arthropods. These results indicate that bioluminescence itself is not energetically expensive, in accordance with our prediction that a high cost of bioluminescence would render the Arachnocampa sit-and-lure predatory strategy inefficient. In laboratory experiments, both elevated feeding rates and daily web removal caused an increase in bioluminescent output. Thus, larvae increase their investment in light output when food is plentiful or when stressed through having to rebuild their webs. As light production is efficient and the cost of web maintenance is relatively low, the energetic returns associated with continuing to glow may outweigh the costs of continuing to attract prey.}, keywords = {Bioluminescence, Metabolic rate, Silk, Sit-and-wait predator, Web}, issn = {0174-1578}, doi = {10.1007/s00360-010-0533-3}, author = {Robyn E.

The genus Arum is composed of 28 species, all belonging to the subgenus Arum, except A. pictum, the only species of the subgenus Gymnomesium, which is basal and sister to all other Arum species. The aim of this paper is to document the pollination ecology of the insular Arum pictum, the only Arum species to flower in autumn, on the island of Corsica (France). The anthesis cycle of A. pictum occurs during the day, attracting sphaerocerid flies and staphylinid beetles early in the morning and late in the afternoon of the first day. The pollen is released from the anthers early in the morning of the second day before the departure of the insects. Its thermogenic cycle matches the anthesis cycle with an original and unique, bimodal temperature pattern of the appendix (morning and afternoon), contrary to the unimodal pattern found in all other studied Arum species. Data from reproductive success and seed sets suggest that sexual reproduction in this species is limited by pollen (e.g. attracting lured insects) rather than by resources. The biology of this Western Mediterranean species appears to be different from other Western European Arum and close to some Eastern Mediterranean species. Further studies are needed to establish whether Arum pictum represents some ancestral stage or whether its peculiar biological traits are adapted to its insular distribution. }, keywords = {Floral volatiles, Insect pollination, Ocimene, Reproductive success, Sphaeroceridae, Thermogenesis}, issn = {0378-2697}, doi = {10.1007/s00606-010-0312-3}, url = {http://www.online-keys.net/sciaroidea/2000_/QuilichiniEtAl_2010_PlantSysEvol_287.pdf}, author = {Ang{\'e}lique Quilichini and David Macquart and Denis Barab{\'e} and J{\'e}r{\^o}me Albre and Marc Gibernau} } @article {pemberton_biotic_2010, title = {Biotic Resource Needs of Specialist Orchid Pollinators}, journal = {The Botanical Review}, volume = {76}, number = {2}, year = {2010}, pages = {275{\textendash}292}, abstract = {Orchid pollinators have highly varied life histories with complex biotic resource requirements, about which we have limited knowledge.

Their composition is compared with that in representative collections of Baltic and Rovno ambers (Upper Eocene) and with that in Dominican amber (Lower Miocene). The original composition of inclusions of Dominican amber is reconstructed for the first time using a procedure intended to reduce the effect of human bias. Taphonomical characteristics of resins and their effects on the composition of inclusions are studied. The actuapaleontological approach reveals a trend towards a decrease in the relative abundance of arboreal springtails and nematoceran dipterans and an increase in that of the true bugs, beetles, lepidopterans, and hymenopterans (especially ants) between the Eocene and the present. Relative abundances of spiders and mites show no clear trend. The available data on other arthropods are still insufficient for elucidating evolutionary trends. Surprisingly, a small contemporary sample from Taimyr (N. Siberia) was inexplicably more similar to the Eocene amber than to other contemporary resins. No other significant differences in composition of inclusions, compared across different conifer genera or geographic areas, have been revealed. A more detailed comparison between contemporary and fossil hymenopteran and beetle inclusions reveals correlations with both age (= evolutionary change) and geography. The absolute dominance of ants, particularly Formicinae and Myrmicinae, and, among solitary hymenopterans, Ichneumonidae, Braconidae, and Pteromalidae, and a corresponding decline in the abundance of Scelionidae and Dolichoderinae in contemporary resins compared to amber reflect evolutionary changes. In contrast, the overwhelming abundance of Formicinae and consistent occurrence of sawflies in contemporary resins of northern Eurasia appear to be explained by geography. The Eocene assemblages of beetle inclusions are characterized by a wider and more variable set of dominant families, in sharp contrast to contemporary resins, which are uniformly dominated by Curculionidae, Chrysomelidae, and Staphylinidae. Additional analyses are needed to explain this difference. }, keywords = {Amber, Eocene, experimental paleontology, insect fossils, insects, resin, Taphonomy}, issn = {0031-0301}, doi = {10.1134/S0031030109090019}, author = {V.

To conserve and manage these populations, particularly in response to potential tourism development, a better understanding of their ecology is needed. Aspects of the life cycle of A. tasmaniensis were monitored over 24 months. A strong seasonal pattern was found, with pupae and adults most common in spring and summer. The increase in numbers of pupae and adults coincided with an increase in the number of prey caught in silk threads produced by the larvae. Larvae were present throughout the year but the number glowing varied both seasonally and spatially. In Mystery Creek Cave, the number of larvae glowing was generally highest during summer and autumn and lowest in winter and early spring. In Exit Cave, there was no consistent seasonal pattern in the number of larvae glowing among sites, and overall there was less variation between monthly counts than at Mystery Creek Cave. This difference in seasonal patterns between the two caves may be due to a difference in climate, with Mystery Creek Cave possibly experiencing a greater drying out of the cave air in winter than Exit Cave.}, keywords = {Australia, Cave climate, Cave fauna, Food availability, Speleology, Tourism}, doi = {10.1007/s10841-009-9225-2}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10841-009-9225-2}, author = {Michael Driessen} } @article {44498, title = {Genetic diversity of Bradysia difformis (Sciaridae: Diptera) populations reflects movement of an invasive insect between forestry nurseries}, journal = {Biological Invasions}, volume = {12}, year = {2010}, pages = {729-733}, abstract = {The fungus gnat, Bradysia difformis (Sciaridae: Diptera) has recently been recorded for the first time from South Africa where it has been found in forestry nurseries.
