Beitrag zur Kenntnis der Branchiopoden‐ und Copepodenfauna der Mongolei
Authors: Flössner Dietrich 
Published: July 2010

Contribution to the Knowledge of the Branchiopod and Copepod Fauna of MongoliaOne species of Anostraca, 25 species of Cladocera and 19 species of Copepoda are reported, mainly from the eastern Khangai mountains, the Tola valley near Ulan‐Bator, and the Khentei mountains. One subspecies, Arctodiaptomus rectispinosus mongolicus, is new to science. An important fraction of species in the present collection had not yet been recorded from Mongolia. The relations between Daphnia longispina O. F. MÜLLER, 1785 and Daphnia rosea SARS,1862,Simocephalus vetulus (O. F. MÜLLER, 1776) and Simocephalus vetuloides SARS, 1898 are discussed. Due to hydrochemical factors, to trophic and climatic conditions most of the sampled localities can be divided into two groups: those of the mountainous steppe zone with high contents of nutrients and electrolytes and those situated in the northern montainous forest steppe zone which are more or less acidic and poor in nutrients and electrolytes. This is also reflected by the fauna composition.

Inhibition of Pupal Development and Egg production in the Silkworm Bombyx Mori (L.) Following Applications of Insecticide and Secondary Plant Substance
Authors: Haniffa M. A. , Devaraj M. , Murugesan A. G. , Punitham M. Thomas 
Published: July 2010

AbstractThe toxic effects of caffeine, dimilin and thiourea on the pupae and adults of the silkworm Bombyx mori were investigated till postoviposition period. Regarding mortality, caffeine was found to be the most toxic and dimilin the least toxic while thiourea was intermediate. Exposure to the toxicants caused a dose dependent increase in pupal weight with the maximum in thiourea. Maximum decrease in adult body weight of male and female was noticed in B. mori treated with dimilin followed by caffeine and thiourea. Thiourea treatment was also the most effective by producing a drastic decrease in egg production in all combinations.

Immunologische Untersuchungen zur Verwandtschaft zwischen den mitteleuropäischen Wasserfröschen des Rana kl. esculenta Synkleptons (Amphibia, Anura) und anderen Anuren‐Taxa
Authors: Plötner Jörg , Günther Rainer , Schade Rüdiger 
Published: July 2010

Immunological Investigations on Relationships between Central European Water Frogs of the Rana kl. esculenta Synklepton and other Anuran TaxaAntigenic relationships between the Central European water frogs (Rana lessonae, Rana ridibunda and Rana kl. esculenta) and other anuran taxa were analysed by crossed‐immunoelectrophoresis. The closest connection exists between the water frogs and other Ranidae in the sequence Rana clamitans, Rana arvalis, Rana temporaria and Pyxicephalus adspersus. As a rule 50% of the plasm proteins showed cross‐reactions with the water frog antiserum. Furthermore, a high degree of antigenic relationship (40–45%) was also recognized for Hyperolius marmoratus (family Hyperoliidae) and Rhacophorus leucomystax (family Rhacophoridae). The plasm samples of the investigated Hylidae (Hyla arborea, Hyla septentrionalis, Smilisca baudinii), Bufonidae (Bufo bufo, Bufo calamita, Bufo marinus) and Dendrobatidae (Dendrobates auratus) reacted in a relatively uniform manner with the water frog antisera. On the average, four peaks were observed, which correspond to an antigenic relatedness of 18%. The Pelobatidae (Pelobates fuscus, Pelobates syriacus), Discoglossidae (Discoglossus sardus, Bombina bombina, Bombina variegata) and Pipidae (Pipa carvalhoi, Xenopus laevis) showed only little relations to the water frogs. In these species the observed degree of relationship ranged between 4.5 and 13.4%, whereas a relatively high intrafamily variation appeared.

Reproductive Performance of Earias vittella (F.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Held in an Environment Containing Normal or Extracted Nerium Flower
Authors: Dass Ivan J. , Singh Raghvendra P. , Krishna S. S. 
Published: July 2010

AbstractA pronounced shoot‐up in egg output and egg viability occurred in Earias vittella when flowers of nerium plant (Thevetia nerifolium) were kept in their breeding environment. However, there was a significant decline in the reproductive potential of the females if these flowers were previously extracted with 100% ethanol. The implications of these interesting findings are discussed in relation to changes in the chemical ecology of the reproducing moths brought about by the possible existence of certain ethanol‐soluble volatile allelo‐chemicals in nerium flowers.

Bionomics of Trioxys indicus Subba Rao & Sharma, an Aphidiid Parasitoid of Aphis craccivora Koch. 23. Factors Associated with Host‐Stage Preference
Authors: Singh Rajendra , Pandey Ranjan K. 
Published: July 2010

AbstractThe third instar nymphs of the host Aphis craccivora are a highly acceptable stage for the parasitoid Trioxys indicus possibly because this stage emanates more amount of host‐seeking stimulants and has more amount of food for supporting the proper development of the parasitoid larvae. Hardness of the host cuticle and defense mechanism of IV instar host have little impact.

Authors: Rauschert Martin 
Published: July 2010

New Stenothoidae (Crustacea, Amphipoda, Gammaridae) from the Sublittoral of King George Island (South Shetland Islands)Some new species of stenothoid amphipods are described, namely, Metopoides macromanus, M. foliodactylus, M. andresi, M. lanceolatus, M. latus, M. serratus, M. angustus, M. leptomanus, and Prometopa edentata. The studies are mainly based on material collected during investigations of the sublittoral of Fildes Peninsula (south‐western part of King George Island, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica). The crustaceans were obtained by freediving techniques and by use of conventional bottom‐sampling equipment. Most of the animals were found in depths between 10 and 60 m. They live in populations of low density on areas influenced by the rather violent tidal current in the Fildes Strait between King George Island and Nelson Island. – Proboloides antarcticus WALKER, 1906 is redescribed and transferred into the genus Metopoides DELLA VALLE, 1893. A lectotype for this species is selected from the type material held in the British Museum (Nat. Hist.), London.

Zur Problematik einer infraspezifischen Differenzierung des pleistozänen Höhlenbären, Ursus spelaeusRosenmüller & Heinroth, 1794
Authors: Fischer Karlheinz 
Published: July 2010

Problems of an Infraspecific Differentiation of the Pleistocene Cave Bear, Ursus spelaeus Rosenmüller & Heinroth, 1794A short history of the investigation, origin, distribution, variability, determination and evolution of the cave bear Ursus spelaeus is given. At the example of the form from Rübeland/Harz there are shown differences between single populations which are based on clinal variations, chronoclines of the cheek teeth, especially of the fourth premolars. But the problem of a subspezific differentiation is not solvable without a phenogenetic‐geographical analysis of populations.
Ökologische Prüfung von Morphospecies der „Tullbergia krausbaueri‐Gruppe”︁ (Insecta: Collembola)
Authors: Dunger Wolfram 
Published: July 2010

Ecological Examination of the “Tullbergia krausbaueri” Morphospecies Group (Insecta: Collembola)Up to 1960 “Tullbergia krausbaueri (BÖRNER, 1901)” was understood to be only one good species. At present, this complex comprehends 8 genera with alltogether 43 species within the palearctic region, most being parthenogenetic. Ecological examinations of some of these morphospecies were made with regard to sympatric occurrence, soil layer preference, reactions on disturbances of soil ecosystems and stability of populations in time. The results confirm the morphologically defined species to be true biospecies.
Adaptationsmuster hermatypischer Korallen als Grundlage zum Verständnis der Korallenriffgenese (Kompensationstheorie)
Authors: Kühlmann Dietrich H. H. 
Published: July 2010

Adaptation Patterns in Hermatypic Corals as a Basis for Understanding the Coral Reef Genesis (Compensatory Theory)Existing coral reef theories fail to explain the origin of all types of coral reefs, because biological aspects are insufficiently considered. However, biological factors, especially metabolism of symbiotic, hermatypic corals are among the most important in the construction of coral reefs, despite the importance of geological, palaeoclimatic and hydrographic features. Of the different ways of feeding, the autotrophic one is the most effective for corals living in shallow waters. The intracellular cycling of metabolic products of host and symbiont uses the minimum of energy, leaving more energy available for growth, reproduction and production of calcium carbonate. Adaptation to different environmental factors by corals at different depths leads to the power of the hermatypic corals to compensate for oscillations of sea floor and relative sea level. Therefore, the biologic complex is the central point in understanding the origin of coral reefs. Because of the adaptational peculiarity of corals and their ability to compensate for environmental alterations, this proposal is called the coral reef theory of compensation. The model is valid for all reef types of all coral reef regions.

Gitanopsilis (Crustacea, Amphipoda, Gammaridea), eine neue Amphilochiden‐Gattung aus dem Sublitoral der König‐Georg‐Insel (Südshetlandinseln)
Authors: Rauschert Martin 
Published: July 2010

AbstractGitanopsilis (Crustacea, Amphipoda, Gammaridea), a New Amphilochid Genus from the Sublittoral of King George Island (South Shetland Islands)In the sublittoral of King Georg Island we found the family Amphilochidae present in two genera, altogether with four species. The algae living species Gitanopsis squamosa (THOMSON, 1880) is very common in the shallow water. In depth of about 100 m we collected two very rare species: Gitanopsis denticulata sp. n. and G. fucatosquamosa sp. n. Every species was caught only at one station. Some characters of a fourth species made it essential to erect the new genus Gitanopsilis. Gitonopsilis amissio nov. gen. et spes. is a rather rare species. It could only be collected at 7 stations in the deeper sublittoral from depths of 45 to 150 m at rocky bottom with mud, and also from muddy bottom. It seems that it occurs in the deeper grounds in patches with high populations. This new species is closely related to Gitanopsis simplex SCHELLENBERG, 1926. Therefore, the systematic position of the species of SCHELLENBERG had to be revised. New genus and species are described and their systematic position is discussed.
