Abstract:
The symbiotic associations between beetles and ants have been observed in at least 35 beetle families. Among myrmecophiles, beetles exhibit the most diverse behavioral and morphological adaptations to a life with ants. These various associations have historically been grouped into discrete but overlapping behavioral categories, many of which are still used in the modern literature. While these behavioral classifications provide a rich foundation for the study of ant-beetle symbioses, the application of these systems in future studies may be less than effective.

Over 2 years, 1049 Coleoptera, representing 49 taxa, were collected. Faunal structure differed little between the two locations. Species diversity was higher in old than in mature stands, and

The majority of Pic’s described taxa are beetles, especially in Tenebrionoidea and the former Malacodermata (or Malacodermatidae). Many genera were described in a brief and uninformative style and without explicit family assignment, making it difficult to determine their familial affiliation based on the literature (Pollock 2005).

Diving beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) from the Transylvanian society collection of the Natural History Museum of Sibiu (Romania) The present study, which deals with the Dytiscidae specimens preserved in the Transylvanian Society Collection of the Natural History Museum of Sibiu, represents a faunistic list of the genera and species present in this collection. The 851 specimens identified from the family Dytiscidae are Palaearctic species, belong to 125 species following the classification system proposed by Nilsson in 2010: 6 subfamilies, 14 tribes, 30 genera and 10 subgenera.

Abstract:
New taxonomic data on mud-loving beetles are provided based on morphological characters and DNA barcoding. Heterocerus heydeni Kuwert, 1890 was previously considered a junior synonym of H. flexuosus Stephens, 1828, but we support the validity of the species and restore the name. H. heydeni is redescribed, based on material from Central Asia and European part of Russia. Specimens of H. hauseri Kuwert, 1893 were also studied, suggesting it as a possible junior synonym of H. heydeni. We provide new DNA barcodes for H. flexuosus and Augyles cf. flavidus and comment on Heterocerus barcode data publ

Abstract:
Eucnemidae is a relatively large beetle family belonging to the polyphagan superfamily Elateroidea. Numerous fossil eucnemids have been reported from Cenozoic deposits, but the Mesozoic record of Eucnemidae is much sparser. Here we describe and figure a new eucnemid beetle, Muonabuntor grandinotalis gen. et sp. nov., discovered from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber (ca. 99 Ma). The new genus resembles extant Jenibuntor and Euryptychus in having simple hypomera and tubular antennomeres 9–11, but differs from the latter genera by its comparatively longer pronotum, weakly striate elytra, and large me

Abstract:
Logging residues are increasingly being extracted for bioenergy purposes. This study estimates how extraction of fine woody debris (FWD) may affect the overall habitat availability for 577 species of wood- and bark-inhabiting basidiomycetes, beetles, and lichens in Sweden using Norway spruce ( Picea abies (L.) Karst.) as their primary substrate. We combined modeling of (i) the amount of various types of woody debris available throughout a forest rotation in managed forests with (ii) a classification of each species’ associations with different types of wood. In three different regions, we comp

Mountain forests are exposed to extreme conditions (e.g., strong winds and intense solar radiation) and various types of damage by insects such as bark beetles, which makes them very sensitive to climatic changes. Therefore, continuous monitoring is crucial, and remote-sensing techniques allow the monitoring of transboundary areas where a common policy is needed to protect and monitor the environment. In this study, we used Sentinel-2 and Landsat 8 open data to assess the forest stands classification of the UNESCO Krkonoše/Karkonosze Transboundary Biosphere Reserve, which is undergoing dynamic

Abstract:
Mastigitae comprise most unusual ant-like stone beetles, showing intriguing morphological characters and ecological adaptations. The largest adults among Scydmaeninae can be found in this group; some reaching nearly 9 mm in length, but there are also adults as small as 1.10 mm. Members of Leptomastacini are microphthalmous and depigmented; Mastigini are often black or contrastingly bicolored and have diurnal life style, adults of some species climbing bushes and trees. Papusini inhabit the driest North American deserts and are active during the warmest time of the year; other taxa live in subt

Com tanta diversidade, para se compreender melhor sua biologia e seus hábitos alimentares eles foram categorizados em cinco grupos tróficos: carnívoros, detritívoros, herbívoros, fungívoros e algívoros. Visando identificar as famílias e os hábitos alimentares em Coleoptera adultos, foram realizadas coletas na fazenda da EMPARN–Jiqui (Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária do Rio Grande do Norte), em quatro áreas, sendo
