This book was released on 2012-11-28 with total page 1736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication provides a comprehensive review of the nomenclature and distribution of the Geadephaga of America, north of Mexico. Overall 2439 valid species-group taxa in 208 genera are catalogued along with their synonyms. Besides the usual information pertaining to author(s), date and page of publication, the type locality, location of name-bearing type, first reference establishing each synonym, and etymology for many patronymic names are provided for species-group names. Genus-group names are listed with the author(s), year of publication, page citation, type species with manner of fixation and etymology for most. The geographical distributions of all species-group taxa are briefly summarized and their state and province records are indicated. About 2500 references are listed with publication dates for many in order to assess priority of names.Several new nomenclatural acts are introduced including one new genus-group taxon, one new replacement name, three changes in precedence, five new genus-group synonymies, 65 new species-group synonymies, one new species-group status, and 12 new combinations.The work includes also a discussion of the notable private North American carabid collections, a synopsis of all extant world geadephagan tribes and subfamilies, a brief faunistic assessment of the fauna, a list of North American fossil Geadephaga, a list of North American Geadephaga larvae described or illustrated, a list of species described from specimens mislabeled as from North America, and a list of unavailable names listed from North America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Bayesian networks the links between species were consistent over time and the model networks showed several characteristics of real-life ecological networks, such as the dominance of positive links over negative ones, the power-law distribution between the number of links belonging to one node and the presence of separate sub-networks. The community analysis of the built networks resulted in a good separation of sub-networks between habitats and sites, suggesting the capability of the method to recognise ecological patterns. Besides range shifts, climate change stress in situ adaptation strategies in ground beetles (such as advancing phenology) may lead to a significant change in the assemblages found in the same time period at one site (temporal assemblages). These temporal assemblage changes, especially if combined with direct anthropogenic impacts such as habitat degradation or fragmentation, substantially threaten the survival of carabid populations. Further research and implementation of new methods are needed to clarify the potential impacts of these threats on the ecosystem services that carabids provide for human societies.

Silverman and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Litter-dwelling beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae) assemblages were monitored for two years (2001 and 2002) after the construction of a corridor in 2000 for the installation of a pipeline along a xeric ridgetop forest in unglaciated southeastern Ohio. After the creation of the corridor, there were three distinct habitats on the study site: open corridor, forest interior, and ecotone. Carabid beetles were collected in directional pitfall traps, which were placed along north-south and east-west directions in each of the three habitats. An ANOVA on the 2001 sampling data indicated that carabids were aggregated primarily in the ecotone, whereas the numbers of specimens collected from the forest interior and corridor were similar. Carabid diversity, estimated by rarefaction, was highest in the corridor, and there was no significant difference in diversity between the ecotone and the forest interior. The forest interior and ecotone assemblages were dominated by Synuchus impunctatus (Say) and Carabus goryi (Dejean), whereas the corridor assemblage was dominated by Harpalus pensylvanicus (DeGeer) and Selenophorus opalinus (LeConte). Directional pitfall trap orientation had no significant effect on the number of carabids collected. An NMS (non-metric multidimensional scaling) ordination of the 2001 data indicated that the carabid assemblages in the corridor were distinct from those of the ecotone and forest interior, whereas the latter two habitats had very similar carabid assemblages. Therefore, the successional pathway of the corridor carabid assemblage will likely be different from those of the forest interior and ecotone. Limited comparisons of the 2001 and 2002 data indicate that generalist species, which may out-compete forest specialist species, became more abundant in the corridor and ecotone after one year of succession. Overall, results indicate that the construction of the pipeline corridor had significant short-term effects on the number of carabids collected, as well as on carabid diversity and species composition due to habitat changes and fragmentation of the forest stand.

Download or read book A Natural History of the Ground beetles Coleoptera Carabidae of America North of Mexico written by André Larochelle and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A summary of the natural history of the ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae; over 2400 taxa) from North America north of Mexico is presented. Under each taxon, the ecology, biology, dispersal power, collecting techniques, and selected references are given. The section on ecology comprises the following: altitudinal distribution, habitat, diel activity, and gregariousness. The section dealing with biology gives details on seasonality, mating, gravid females or oviposition, tenerals, overwintering, feeding, predation, parasitism, and defense-mechanism. The section on dispersal power, or the capability of dispersal, has been assessed when possible, using three main criteria: wing condition, flight data (including light-trapping observations), and other locomotory habits. The section on collecting techniques provides the best means of capture. The section references lists the most relevant papers, with appropriate key-words. An exhaustive bibliography dealing with the natural history of North American Carabidae is also provided. This work follows the Catalogue of Bousquet and Larochelle (1993) Catalogue of the Geadephaga (Coleoptera: Trachypachydae, Rhysodidae, Carabidae including Cicindelini of America north of Mexico, which provided nomenclatural and distributional information on North American ground-beetles. An indispensable tool for anybody interested in ground-beetles, as well as to libraries due to the increadable amount of information summarised in this book.
