New distributional data on aquatic and semiaquatic bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Gerromorpha & Nepomorpha) from South America
BACKGROUND Water bugs in general play an important role in freshwater ecosystems, and knowledge about them is essential for the study of water biology and the proper management of aquatic habitats. The Neotropical fauna is relatively well known, but the existence of large under-collected areas makes taxonomic and faunistic studies concerning the aquatic and semiaquatic bugs from tropical Americ...
متن کاملChecklist of water bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Nepomorpha, Gerromorpha) of Slovakia.
The water bugs represent a significant component of the freshwater biota, play an important role in trophic webs, and may have considerable economic importance. Nevertheless, systematic research of this group has been underdeveloped in Slovakia (central Europe) for decades. This work presents a list of water bug species of Slovakia based on an exhaustive review of the literature (time span: 180...
متن کاملNepomorpha, Gerromorpha and Leptopodomorpha (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) of the Tuscan Archipelago (Italy).
This paper provides the first checklists for Nepomorpha (12 spp.), Gerromorpha (10 spp.) and Leptopodomopha (5 spp.) of the Tuscan Archipelago; summarizing and updating the knowledge for this area. The presence of the family Micronec- tidae is recorded for the first time in the Archipelago, as well as six species: Nepomorpha - Micronecta scholtzi (Fieber, 1860), Sigara selecta (Fieber, 1848), S...
متن کاملThe first assess of the haplotypes from COI gene sequences in species of spittlebugs (Cicadomorpha: Hemiptera) and aquatic true bugs (Gerromorpha and Nepomorpha: Hemiptera) in Brazil.
We made the first analysis of the COI gene sequences of 22 species of spittlebugs and aquatic true bugs sampled in São Paulo State (Brazil) and used this information to determine the variability within these groups. Considering each codon position, we observed that the third base was the most variable, and the first base was the most conserved. Among species, Mahanarva fimbriolata and Deois fla...
متن کاملThe Distribution of Aquatic Bugs (hemiptera-heteroptera) in Scotland
There are 63 species of aquatic bugs in Britain, of which 37 are listed as occurring in Scotland (Savage 1989). A preliminary report to Scottish Natural Heritage on the distribution of aquatic bugs in Scotland, supplemented by records for 1997 (Huxley 1997a, 1998), lists 45 (possibly 46) species, albeit a few in this list are very rare or may not still occur. In this article I summarize the fin...
