Abstract

De wereld zit vol wonderen. Niet alleen wereldwonderen, ook wonderen van de natuur. Elke levensvorm, hoe complex ook, lijkt ooit al door het leven te zijn uitgeprobeerd. En elke vorm van samenwerking of uitbuiting lijkt uit evolutionaire toevalligheden te zijn ontstaan. Vervelende blaaskaakjes, bange woelmuizen, slavendrijvende amazonemieren, promiscue pimpelmezen, florerende garnalen of fluorescerende spreeuwen, royaal bedeelde zeepokken en lichtverslaafde huismoeders: Dirk Draulans beschrijft in Beestenboel Bis met gevoel voor humor en in detail hoe veelzijdig het dierenleven bij ons is. Beestenboel Bis bundelt 101 boeiende stukken die in Knack zijn verschenen. Dirk Draulans (1956) is bioloog, journalist en schrijver. Hij is doctor in de wetenschappen en werkte aan de universiteit van Oxford, waar hij zich bekwaamde in de gedragswetenschappen. Sinds 1987 is hij redacteur bij Knack. In de Putten. Natuurdagboek uit een conflictlandschap (2016) werd genomineerd voor de Jan Wolkers Prijs voor het beste natuurboek. In 2018 verscheen Beestenboel.

Abstract

Hoploscopa are mid-sized reddish-brown moths with white, yellow or red pattern elements which inhabit montane wet forests of South-East Asia, from Thailand to the Samoan Islands. With only sixteen species described – all, with one exception, were described between the end of 19th and beginning of 20th century – the diversity of this genus was exceedingly under estimated. Previous authors suggested the occurrence of at least 70 species in the British Museum (NHM, London) awaiting description. A recent paper brought the first host plant records on ferns for this genus and provided COI barcodes for some undescribed species. Examination of morphology and COI barcodes from museum specimens and collected material as well as of the type specimens of hitherto described species led to the description of 26 new species, bringing the total number of species in the genus to 41. Interestingly, these moths show a high degree of endemism: the few species ranging over several islands show pronounced barcode splits (2 to 5 %) between islands, raising questions about species boundaries among island populations. Another thirty species still described are estimated from the collection of the NMH London and will be the scope of a second publication.

Abstract

The large parasitoid wasp genus Aleiodes Wesmael, 1838, (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Rogadinae) has a world-wide distribution and in the western Palaearctic region it forms a moderately prominent element of the braconid fauna. Despite the relatively large size and/or abundance of several species, and the frequency with which they are reared by lepidopterists, there are no reliable identification keys to the western Palaearctic species before the first part of this series was published. Both first authors assembled specimens from many collections and all available biological data for this revision during 40 years. The second author has reared many western European species of Aleiodes from their Lepidoptera hosts, and also received donations of specimens reared by a large number of lepidopterists. The third author analysed the molecular data assembled by him and the second author. Investigation of Aleiodes host ranges has also involved some experimentation using short-term cultures by the second author, and in some cases this has been motivated by, and crucial for, elucidating species-level taxonomy. In this second paper we give an illustrated key to the Aleiodes apicalis species group what are in general the larger and more conspicuous species. The biology, host associations and phenology are discussed for the keyed species and, in total, six new species are described and fourteen new synonyms are proposed.
