Hemaris ducalis

description: H. ducalis subsp. lukhtanovi Eitschberger, Danner & Surholt, 1998
Plate 2, Fig. 27
Material examined. PAKISTAN, [Baluchistan,] Ziarat, 8000ft, 6. viii. [19]29, J. W. Evans; as previous except “Quetta Prov., Ziarat”, 30°10’N 67°49’E, 14-20. vi. 1992, Z. Weidenhoffer (BMNH).
Remarks. This subspecies is known only from two isolated populations, one at Ziarat, near Quetta, in Baluchistan (Danner et al., 1998), the other from central Afghanistan (Bamiyan, Yakawlang district, 34°48'2.80''N 67°11'3.37''E) (Pittaway & Kitching, 2013), but its validity as a separate subspecies remains open to doubt (Kitching & Cadiou, 2000).

Remarks. A widespread and common species in the whole West Palaearctic, with wide ecological spectrum (Graf et al. 2009). In the Caucasian region, it is known from Armenia, Georgia, Kabardino-Balkaria, North Ossetia and Stavropol Krai (Zhiltzova 2003, Cherchesova & Zhiltzova 2013). A spring and early summer species, in Azerbaijan we found it mostly along forest streams, in moderate numbers. These specimens provide the first confirmed locations for this species in Azerbaijan.

Arachnopathes

description: Genus Arachnopathes Milne Edwards, 1857
Arachnopathes was established by Milne Edwards (1857) based on the type species Antipathes ericoides Pallas, 1766. The genus was later questioned by Brook (1889) before being synonymized with Antipathes by van Pesch (1914) and Pax & Muller (1955) (Opresko 2006). In a more recent work, the species Arachnopathes columnaris Duchassaing, 1870 was chosen by Opresko (2006) as the type species of the genus Stylopathes. The genus Arachnopathes is characterized by branched and bushy colonies with short, straight or curved branchlets fused together into a thick mass (Opresko 2006). The branchlets on the outer edges of the colony may be free or fused. The spines are smooth, triangular to conical to hooked upward, and can be forked.
There are currently five nominal species, of which two are known from the Indian Ocean: Arachnopathes ericoides (Pallas, 1766) which is the type species of the genus but for which the type material is lost, and Ar. clathrata (Pallas, 1766) for which there is no type. The remaining species, Ar. aculeata Brook, 1889, Ar. indistincta (van Pesch, 1914) and Ar. sibogae (van Pesch, 1914) come from the Pacific Ocean. The latter two were originally assigned to the genus Aphanipathes, but they are now provisionally referred to Arachnopathes based on similarities in colony form and spine morphology (unpublished observations from co-author DMO). Further DNA analyses on Indian Ocean species might prove that they are related to the Stylopathidae, but based on their spine morphology, they are inferred to be closer to Antipathidae rather than Stylopathidae (Opresko 2006).

Remarks. A common summer and autumnal species in the Greater Caucasus (Georgia, Krasnodar Krai, Karachay-Cherkessia, North Ossetia), Lesser Caucasus (Armenia, Georgia), the Pontic region of Anatolia and the Alborz of Iran (Aubert 1964, Zhiltzova 2003, Darilmaz et al. 2016). In Naxçıvan, it emerged already in early summer. In the Talysh Mts, it was common along forest brooks and streams but not in rivers or open brooks. In the Lesser Caucasus, we found it along a single forest brook during our autumnal tour. New for the fauna of Azerbaijan.

Remarks. This species was also reported from Shogran, Kaghan Valley, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, by Staven (2001, unpublished data). Acosmeryx naga subsp. naga ranges from the Himalayan foothills of Pakistan, India and Nepal, through eastern and southern China, to Taiwan, Korea and Japan, and southeast through Myanmar, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam to Peninsular Malaysia (Pittaway & Kitching, 2013). It is replaced in eastern Afghanistan and Tajikistan by A. naga subsp. hissarica Shchetkin, 1956, which may thus also occur on the northwest border of Pakistan.

Remarks. This species was hitherto known only from the holotype male, collected a half century before in the Alborz of Iran (Murányi 2005). This second locality is in the Talysh Mts, forming the Azerbaijani section of the Alborz range (Hyrcanian forest ecoregion). The present specimens were collected at a single stream (Fig. 7), despite sampling efforts in several similar habitats of the region. We collected it together with more Leuctra fusca and a single L. collaris specimens. Unfortunately, no female was found, so the female of L. klapperichi remains undescribed. New for the fauna of Azerbaijan.

Remarks. A rare spring species, hitherto known only from the Lesser Caucasus (Armenia, Georgia), and the northern half of Anatolia (Zhiltzova 2003, Darilmaz et al. 2016).

Remarks. This species was recorded in Pakistan from Peshawar by Chaudhry et al. (1966) and from Faisalabad and Sialkot by Mehmood et al. (1996). The core distribution of D. nerii is Africa, the southern Mediterranean region and the Middle East, from where it extends east through South and South East Asia to southeast China, the Philippines, Borneo and Sumatra. It occurs as a migrant/vagrant in Europe and Central Asia, and has also colonized the southern islands of Japan (including Chichijima), Guam, Saipan and Hawaii (Pittaway, 2013; Pittaway & Kitching, 2013).

description: Abstract

Study on taxonomy and diversity of Boletes mushrooms from Pakistan is neglected irrespective of their great diversity in coniferous forests of Himalayan range of Pakistan. Boletes are economically important due to their ectomycorrhizal status, edibility and medicinal values. There is need to enlist data, explore more diversity as well as to conserve these fungi. This study enlist the Boletes fungi data from Pakistan which showed total eighty-eight species that have been reported from Pakistan belonging to thirty-nine genera and fourteen families of order Boletales. Most dominant family is Boletaceae with twenty-one reported genera while dominant genus is Suillus belongs to Suillaceae family with fifteen species. Thirteen species have been reported that were first time described from Pakistan as new to Science species. Species described previously by old names have been replaced here by current names using Index Fungorum and their old names have also been mentioned as synonyms for clarity. All taxa are enlisted here alphabetically. First checklist of this group of fungi was published in 2013 but it was preliminary and much work on order Boletales was done after this. Before 2011, all species of this group reported from Pakistan has many confusions because these were identified only by morphological analysis. For some taxa identification method is still unknown because it was not mentioned in literature and for some there were even no pictures as proof. After 2011, there was progress towards molecular analysis of boletes fungi. Doubtful things are mentioned in the results.  This is a second and more comprehensive report of this group of fungi describing their habit, habitat, host tree, publication status, economic importance, identification method etc.  It has been compiled following an extensive survey of literature, references, GenBank data, MycoBank data, Index Fungorum and consultation with different specialists. Bibliography of reported species from Pakistan has also been enlisted.

description: Protonemura sp. (aculeata?)
Şəki-Zaqatala region: 33: 1♂ (HNHM) 1♂ (LMEE).
Remarks. One of these two, relatively large sized males (the HNHM specimen) was found to be infected by nematode worms of the family Mermithidae (Figs. 15–17). The presence of mermithid worms in stoneflies were reported by Ravizza & Zwick (2006) from Italy and Germany, where they found several infected specimens belonging to Isoperla rivulorum (Pictet, 1841), Protonemura caprai (Aubert, 1954) and another but unidentifiable Protonemura species. Lesions caused by the nematode infection show remarkable similarity between the Azerbaijan specimen and those figured and described by Ravizza & Zwick (2006). These include the fusion of the ventral vesicle with the hypoproct, shortening and fusion of paraproct lobes, and the shortening of epiproct (Figs 11–14).
The other specimen (kept in the LMEE), was found to be free of mermithids, and its terminalia shows no lesions but apparently it was conspecific with the infected specimen. They belong to the praecox group, and cannot convincingly be attributed to any of the described species. Since Zhiltzova (1988) reported high geographical variability of P. aculeata within the Caucasian region, we will consider our specimens as a probable variant of P. aculeata, rather than a new species. Needed are additional specimens in good condition, additional character states in the form of DNA sequences, and behavioural characters derived from bioacoustic studies.
