ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT The SISBIOTA-BRASIL was a three-year multimillion-dollar research program of the Brazilian government to document plants and animals in endangered/understudied areas and biomes in Brazil. Distributional patterns and the historical events that generated them are extensively unknown regarding Brazilian fauna and flora. This deficiency hinders the development of conservation policies and the understanding of evolutionary processes. Conservation decisions depend on precise knowledge of the taxonomy and geographic distribution of species. Given such a premise, we proposed to research the diversity of Diptera of the Brazilian western arc of Amazon, Cerrado, and Pantanal in the states of Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, and Rondônia. Three important biomes of the South American continent characterize these Brazilian states: Amazon forest, Cerrado (Brazilian Savannah), and Pantanal. Besides their ecological relevance, these biomes historically lack intensive entomological surveys. Therefore, they are much underrepresented in the Brazilian natural history collections and in the scientific literature, which is further aggravated by the fact that these areas are being exponentially and rapidly converted to commercial lands. Our project involved over 90 collaborators from 24 different Brazilian institutions and one from Colombia among researchers, postdocs, graduate and undergraduate students, and technicians. We processed and analyzed nearly 300,000 specimens from ~60 families of Diptera collected with a large variety of methods in the sampled areas. Here, we provide a detailed overview of the genera and species diversity of 41 families treated. Our results point to a total of 2,130 species and 514 genera compiled and identified for the three states altogether, with an increase of 41% and 29% in the numbers of species and genera known for the three states combined, respectively. Overall, the 10 most species-rich families were Tachinidae, Cecidomyiidae, Tabanidae, Psychodidae, Sarcophagidae, Stratiomyidae, Bombyliidae, Syrphidae, Tephritidae, and Asilidae. The 10 most diverse in the number of genera were Tachinidae, Stratiomyidae, Asilidae, Mycetophilidae, Syrphidae, Tabanidae, Muscidae, Dolichopodidae, Sarcophagidae, and Chloropidae. So far, 111 scientific papers were published regarding taxonomic, phylogenetic, and biogeographical aspects of the studied families, with the description of 101 new species and three new genera. We expect that additional publications will result from this investigation because several specimens are now curated and being researched by specialists.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: This paper covers the first record of window flies, Scenopinidae (Diptera), in the archipelago of Fernando de Noronha, Brazil: Scenopinus schulzi Enderlein, which is briefly characterized. This species was recorded in low numbers: three males and 13 female specimens. The occurrence of scenopinids in Fernando de Noronha is regarded as an extension of the Brazilian mainland continental fauna. The colonization of the archipelago is discussed.


Resumo: Este trabalho faz o primeiro registro de uma espécie de Scenopinidae no Arquipélago de Fernando de Noronha, Brasil: Scenopinus schulzi Enderlein, brevemente caracterizada. Esta espécie foi registrada em baixa densidade: três machos e 13 fêmeas. A ocorrência de scenopinideos em Fernando de Noronha é atribuída à extensão territorial da fauna continental e sua colonização no arquipélago é discutida.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Hexapods, commonly known as insects, are a neglected taxonomic group in the Fernando de Noronha archipelago, with unanswered questions about their species richness and the ecological processes in which they are involved (e.g., colonization, introduction, establishment, and extinction). Herein, we provide an updated Hexapod checklist with current nomenclatural combinations. The entomofauna of the Fernando de Noronha archipelago is currently composed of 453 species in 21 orders. The orders, and their respective number of species, are: Blattaria (9), Coleoptera (118), Collembola (29), Dermaptera (3), Diplura (1), Diptera (134), Embioptera (1), Hemiptera (29), Hymenoptera (59), Isoptera (2), Lepidoptera (25), Mantodea (1), Neuroptera (3), Odonata (5), Orthoptera (11), Phasmatodea (1), Phthiraptera (6), Psocoptera (3), Siphonaptera (1), Thysanoptera (10), and Zygentoma (2). The archipelago has 263 new taxon records (family + genera + species). Thirty-eight species (3.39%) were described from local specimens and most of them are likely endemic species. This study more than doubles our knowledge (from the previous 190 records) of the entomofauna in this large Brazilian archipelago. This study also provides a baseline for studies on its conservation status and for implementing future environmental management programs.

ABSTRACT

Descreveu-se a duração dos estádios larvais de Peckia (Pattonella) smarti (Lopes 1941) e Peckia (Pattonella) pallidipilosa (Curran & Walley 1934) obtidos em suínos em decomposição na natureza durante as estações chuvosa e seca na Reserva Florestal Adolpho Ducke, Manaus, Amazonas. As larvas foram colocadas em recipientes com serragem úmida e carne suína com 12 horas de decomposição para puparem. Os recipientes com as larvas foram mantidos em viveiro próximo ao local de coleta. A idenficação foi baseada nos adultos e posteriormente foram correlacionados com as larvas. O período de larva até a emergência dos adultos, na estação chuvosa, foi de 17,93 dias para P. smarti e 15,87 dias para P. pallidipilosa. Na estação seca foi de 16,05 dias para P. smarti e 15,96 dias para P. pallidipilosa. Peckia smarti e P. pallidipilosa estão sendo registradas pela primeira vez para o Estado do Amazonas e para o Brasil, respectivamente.


It was described the duration of larval instars of Peckia (Pattonella) smarti (Lopes 1941) and Peckia (Pattonella) pallidipilosa (Curran & Walley 1934) obtained in pigs in natural environment during the rainy and dry seasons in the Forest Reserve Adolpho Ducke, Manaus, Amazonas. The larvae were put in containers with humid sawdust and pig meat with 12 hours of decomposition to pupate. The containers with the larvae were maintained in rearer close to the collection place. The identification was based on the adults and later they were correlated with the immatures. During the rainy season, the development period between the larval phase and the emergency were of 17.93 days to P. smarti and 15.87 days for P. pallidipilosa; in the dry season, 16.05 days for P. smarti and 15.96 days for P. pallidipilosa. Peckia smarti and P. pallidipilosa are being registered for the first time for the State of Amazonas and for Brazil, respectively.

ABSTRACT

The populational fluctuation of flies of the genera Willistoniella Mik and Ropalomera Wiedemann (Diptera: Ropalomeridae) was studied using McPhail traps, with molasses (10%) as attractive bait, in two places in a mixed orchard of the families Myrtaceae, Sapotaceae, Anacardiaceae, Apocinaceaeand Gutiferae, during 13 months (december of 1996 to december of 1997) in the Central Amazonia, Brazil.The total of 1,148 Willistoniella flies and 99 Ropalomera flies were captured. The abundance observed in the genera was larger during the dry months, however there was no correlation between flies caught in the traps and the rainfall in the two places.


A flutuação populacional de moscas dos gêneros Willistoniella Mik e RopalomeraWiedemann (Diptera: Ropalomeridae) foi estudada utilizando-se armadilhas McPhail, com melaço de cana (10%) como isca, em dois lugares com pomar misto, com frutíferas das famílias Myrtaceae, Sapotaceae, Anacardiaceae, Apocinaceae e Gutiferae, durante 13 meses (dezembro de 1996 a dezembrode 1997) na Amazônia Central. Foram capturadas 1.148 moscas do gênero Willistoniella e 99 moscas de Ropalomera. A abundância observada nos gêneros foi maior durante os meses secos, entretanto não houve correlação entre o número de moscas capturadas nas armadilhas com a precipitação nos dois locais amostrados.
