Abstract:

Twelve species of biting midges of the genus Atrichopogon reported by Kieffer (1912, 1916a,b, 1921, 1922) from Taiwan are redescribed, illustrated and/or interpreted. They are included in the subgenus Psilokempia Enderlein (A. myrmedon Kieffer, 1912) and in the subgenus Atrichopogon s. str. (A. argus Kieffer, 1916, A. flaviceps Kieffer, 1912, A. haemorrhoidalis Kieffer, 1921, A. insularis Kieffer, 1921, A. minimus Kieffer, 1916, A. pruinosus Kieffer, 1921 and A. ruber Kieffer, 1916). Five new synonyms are proposed for the following species: A. ruber Kieffer, 1916 (=A. formosanus Kieffer 1918), A. myrmedon Kieffer, 1922 (=A. quadrispinosus Remm, 1993; =A. pectinacaudalis Yu & Yan, 2006), A. insularis Kieffer, 1921 (=A. citrinipes Kieffer, 1922) and A. flaviceps Kieffer, 1912 (=A. mendax Kieffer, 1922, as var. of A. flaviceps). Atrichopogon crispantis Liu, Yan & Liu, 1996 is resurrected from synonymy with A. insularis Kieffer, 1921. Atrichopogon rufescens Kieffer, 1921 is recognized as a nomen dubium, while A. atriceps mentioned by Blech & Rohlfien (1987) is considered a nomen nudum. A key to the species described by Kieffer from Taiwan is provided.

Abstract:

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of the major health problems in the world and Indonesia. The prevalence is more increasing and also shows the trend of events is shifting to young age. Diabetes mellitus treatment requires high costs and also a lifetime. Most of the people of Indonesia still use traditional methods of treatment, especially herbs from various biological substances that are available in the environment. Undur-undur (myrmeleon sp.) is believed to have the effect of anti-hyperglycemia, and also anti-viscosity. The aim of this study was to determine anti-hyperglycemia and anti-viscosity of myrmeleon sp. extract in diabetic rats. The design of study is randomized experiment. Diabetic rats were induced by streptozocin 100mg/ kg BW intraperitoneal. Fifty rats were divided into 2 groups administered by Myrmeleon sp. extract dose 0,01ml/ 200 gram BW (100%) and 0,005ml/ 200 gram BW (50%). Myrmeleon sp. shows the effect of anti-hyperglycemic and anti-viscosity in diabetic rats. There was a difference between 50% and 100% doses. The effect of anti-hyperglycemia and anti-viscosity occurs after the second day. Conclusion: the extract of myrmeleon sp. could be considered as one of the traditional treatments of diabetic patients.

Abstract:

Negative effects on health will occur in excessive use of paracetamol. The main objective of this study was to determine the hepatoprotective activity of Propolis Trigona spp., Hibiscus sabdariffa, and Myrmeleon sp. in rats induced by paracetamol. The study was conducted on 36 Sprague Dawley rats with 6 rats in each group. Group 1 (normal control), group 2 (positive control, temulawak 42.86 mg/kg BW), group 3 (negative control), group 4 (infusion of Myrmeleon 10 mg/kg BW), group 5 (propolis extract 0.02 ml/kg BW), and group 6 (Hibiscus sabdariffa infusion 0.02 ml/kg BW). Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) concentrations were determined spectrophotometrically and microscopically for liver histopathology. The results showed that during three weeks of treatment with Propolis Trigona spp., Hibiscus sabdariffa, and Myrmeleon sp. in rats, this treatment could decrease ALT and AST activity as the positive control. The ALT activity values of the three materials were 69.26, 51.00, 51.00, 43.67, U/I with AST values of 110.29, 97.33, 91.00, 91.33 U/I. Based on Duncan's test, there were significant differences between all treatments with negative and positive control groups. Likewise, with the histopathological scoring results, the negative control was found to be significantly different from all treatments. Therefore, treatment with propolis Trigona spp., Hibiscus sabdariffa, and Myrmeleon sp. may have hepatoprotective benefit.

Abstract:

Abstract The remarkable diversity of antlions in the Afrotropical region is counterbalanced by the scarce knowledge of their biology and ecology. In particular, their larval stages are largely unknown and the morphology of African pit-building species was never investigated in detail. The larvae of three pit-building species attaining a wide distribution across the whole continent, namely Myrmeleon caliginosus, M. obscurus and M. quinquemaculatus are described, illustrated and compared with congeners for the first time. Moreover, M. caliginosus is reported for the first time from Namibia, notably extending the known range of this antlion, with implications on the taxonomy and the identification of African Myrmeleon species. The larvae of these three species highlight the overall conservative morphology across the whole genus, differing in relatively minor characters such as size, proportions, pattern and chaetotaxy.

Abstract:

AbstractA bronze olpe in which a hoard of cyzicenes was found in 2003 in Myrmekion is discussed. The vessel belongs to a group of bi-conical bronze olpai singled out by Thomas Weber as Type III. B and should be dated to the first half, or possibly the second quarter, of the 5th century BC (the hoard in the olpe was hidden in the second quarter of the 4th century BC). Further the hoards of coins in bronze olpai and hoards of cyzicenes in bronze vessels are discussed, including the find of 1989 during excavations at Vaste in Messapia of a similar bronze olpe, where the core of the hoard consisted of coins minted in Tarentum between 272 and 235 BC. It is highly likely that certain similarities with regard to the long gaps between the concealment of the hoards in the bronze olpai and the date of the manufacture of the actual vessels mean that in both cases the hoards can be linked with temple treasuries, in which olpai figured prominently.

Abstract:

AbstractThe author publishes a tomb stone of the 1st half of the 4th century BC discovered at the necropolis of the Bosporan city of Myrmekion (on the territory of Kerch). The name of the second buried person Kυαιανιζ should be probably read as Kυλιανιζ. The latter is known from a 4th century epitaph CIRB 162 and is often to be found on the ceramic stamps of Sinope as the name factory-owners. The name seems to be Paphlagonian, derived from the Hittito-Luvian anthroponymic stem Kul(a)-. Anatolian name of the father "Aττηζ known on the Bosporus from some other inscriptions of the 4th century BC, is attested in Myrmekion in CIRB 178. The author gives other examples from Bosporan epigraphy of how immigrant families from Asia Minor preserved their traditional names. The epigraphic data make it possible to speak about a mass migration of super ficially Hellenized barbarians (often with their families) from the northern parts of Asia Minor to the Bosporus in the 5th and 4th centuries BC.

Full text

Abstract:

Around 1970 Tjeder suggested two changes to the nomenclature of the Ascalaphidae regarding the names Libelloides and libelluloides. To avoid future confusion, we augment Tjeder’s work by analyzing the nomenclatural status of all taxa related to these names—specifically Libelloides Schäffer, 1763 and Libelloides coccajus ([Denis et Schiffermüller], 1775), Ascalaphidae, and Palpares libelluloides (Linnaeus, 1764), Myrmeleontidae. After a short historical preamble, we treat the three taxa in chronological order of description. Additional information is reported in four Addenda, followed by a list of synonymies. Our conclusions are as follows: 1. Schäffer’s Das Zwiefalter– oder Afterjüngferchen (1763) is consistent with the Principle of Binomial Nomenclature, thus the names Libelloides and Libellula spuria, therein created, are available [ICZN Code Article 11.4.1.]. 2. Libellula spuria Schäffer, 1763, is a senior synonym of Papilio coccajus [Denis et Schiffermüller], 1775; however, the older name Libellula spuria Schäffer, 1763, is a nomen oblitum with respect to the younger name Papilio coccajus [Denis et Schiffermüller], 1775, which therefore must be considered a nomen protectum [ICNZ Code Article 23.9.2: both Articles 23.9.2.1 and 23.9.2.2 apply]. 3. The name Hemerobius libelloides Linnaeus, 1764, is the correct original spelling [ICNZ Code Article 32.5.1 does not apply], but the subsequent spelling Myrmeleon libelluloides Linnaeus, 1767, even if an unjustified emendation [ICZN Code Article 33.2.1 and 33.2.3], is in prevailing usage and consequently: i) it is deemed to be a justified emendation, and ii) it is attributed to its original author and date [ICZN Code Article 33.2.3.1]. 4. Myrmeleon libelluloides Fuesslin, 1775, being a mere misidentification of the name Myrmeleon libelluloides (Linnaeus, 1764), is unavailable name [ICZN Code Article 49]. 5. Schäffer (1763) is not the author of the name Ascalaphus libelluloides: the authorship must be attributed to van der Weele with the date of description 5th January 1909. 6. Libellula turcica Petiver & Empson, 1767, in Ábrahám (2012), is an unavailable name. 7. The original spelling Myrmeleon kolywanense Laxmann, 1770, is the correct original spelling [ICNZ Code Article 32.5.1 does not apply], but the subsequent spelling Ascalaphus kolyvanensis Rambur, 1842, even if an unjustified emendation [ICZN Code Article 33.2.1 and 33.2.3], is in prevailing usage and consequently: i) it is deemed to be a justified emendation, and ii) it is attributed to its original author and date [ICZN Code Article 33.2.3.1]. 8. Fuesslin’s Verzeichniss der ihm bekannten schweizerischen Insekten (1775) was published between 24th February (date in the second part of the Preface [Vorrede]) and 12th May 1775 (Wyttenbach, 1775), so the date of publication is 12th May 1775 [ICZN Code Article 21.3].

Abstract:

Brain lateralization is hypothesized to improve the efficiency of information processing. Here, we found that some Myrmeleon bore antlion larvae showed individual asymmetry in righting from a supine to normal position over one side of their body, which can be considered a reflection of greater brain lateralization. We demonstrated that these behaviourally asymmetrical individuals showed improved learning abilities, providing novel evidence that brain lateralization leads to beneficial effects on cognitive functions.

The objective of this study was to observe the predation behavior of larvae of M. brasiliensis in the three larval instars, for this leaf cut ant were collected manually and offered within the plastic pots as prey for 14 larvae of 1st instar larvae, 33 of 2nd and 3rd instar. It was counted the number of attacks of the predator to prey, the number of escapes from jail and the success of prey capture for each larva of M. brasiliensis. The larvae of M. brasiliensis 1st instar attacked more times its prey, followed by larvae of 2nd and 3rd instar. On the number of escape of prey, there was no significant difference in this behavior among larvae. Regarding the success in capturing prey, the larvae of 3rd instar were more successful, with a predation rate of 96.96%, followed by the larvae of 2nd (69.70%) and 1st instar (14.28 %).

Abstract:

AbstractOn August 20, 2003, in the course of excavations of the ancient settlement of Myrmekion (Ukraine, town of Kerch) the State Hermitage expedition discovered a hoard of electrum staters from the town of Cyzicus. The hoard had been kept in a bronze jug hidden under masonry. It contained 99 well-preserved coins that belong to 53 types, mostly dating from the 5th century BC (2nd and 3rd groups according to H. Fritze). One of the types (a sitting warrior wearing a helmet with a bow placed to the right of him) is unique. The building under which the hoard was found had been a sanctuary constructed in the 4th century BC. However the wall where the hoard comes from was constructed not before the 370s BC, so coins from Cyzicus cannot be dated to an earlier period. Most probably the hoard was not a private property but part of the temple's treasures concealed in some unclear circumstances. The hoard, by its size, is comparable to similar finds from Prinkipo, Clazomenae, Piraeus and Orlovka. The hoard from Myrmekion is the only one obtained by a museum in its integrity and whose archaeological origin is clear. The sanctuary, in which the hoard was found, is known as the "Demeter sanctuary". It occupied an area of more than 500 m2, in the center of which there was a premise with a stone altar. The archaeological context proves that the hoard could have been hidden not earlier than 375-350 BC.

Abstract:

A new antlion (Neuroptera Myrmeleontidae Myrmeleontini), Myrmeleon almohadarum sp. nov., is described from southern Spain and Tunisia. The new taxon is closely related to the mostly sympatric M. inconspicuus Rambur and M. mariaemathildae Pantaleoni, Cesaroni & Nicoli Aldini but differing in body pattern, wing venation and larval chaetotaxy. The validity of the new species is also supported by a phylogenetic analysis based on COI sequences. The larva of this new species is described and compared with congeners. M. almohadarum appears to be associated with sandy environments.

Abstract:

The antlion Myrmeleon yemenicus is known from SW of the Arabian Peninsula where it inhabits shrubland and rock communities at the altitudes higher than 1800 metres above sea level. Morphology and behaviour of larvae and adults are described. Larvae construct conical pits in loose soil and wait for prey at the bottom of the trap. Catching behaviour comprises sand tossing, prey beating, grasping and prey submersion. On sand surface, larvae move only backwards. Dark brown spots on dorsal and ventral sides of the head are characteristic for the larvae. Eye tubercles are not prominent and mandibles are equipped with numerous long bristles oriented laterally. Body surface is covered with longitudinally grooved bristles and plumose hairs. On the tip of the antennae and labial palps sensilla basiconica occur. Small submedian teeth are located on abdominal sternite 8. Typical pattern of arrangement of digging bristles comprises eight bristles in the posterior row, and four bristles in the row immediately in front.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTBackground: Diabetes mellitus is a disease that is included in the group of metabolic diseases, characterized by hyperglycemia that occurs due to abnormal insulin secretion. Generally, treatment of diabetes mellitus uses insulin injection and Oral Hypoglycemic Drugs (OHD). In addition there are also animals are trusted by public in healing diabetes mellitus. Antlions (Myrmeleon sp) is a useful animal to treat diabetes mellitus. The body of antlions contains sulfonylureas which is a substance that stimulates insulin secretion in pancreatic beta cells. Aim: The objective of this research was to analyze the effect of antlions extract on blood glucose level of male swiss mice induced by streptozotocin Methods: This research was a pure experimental laboratory study and the design used is the Pre Test and Post Test Control Group Design, which is done by comparing the results of observations in the control and treatment groups after the action was done. Sampling was done using the simple random sampling technique. The sample size used in this study amounted to 30 mice. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA test with a confidence level of 95%. Results: The administration of antlions extract could lower (p<0.05) blood glucose levels in male Swiss mice after 28 days of treatment. The administration of antlions extract with doses of 14 mg/kgBW and 56 mg/kgBW significantly lowered blood glucose levels in male Swiss mice as evidenced by p=<0.001 and p=0.034. Whereas the administration of antlions extract with a dose of 28 mg/kgBW was less significant in lowering blood glucose levels in male Swiss mice (p=0.210). Conclusion: The administration of antlions extract (Myrmeleon sp.) with a dose of 14 mg/kgBW had the best effect on lowering blood glucose levels in male Swiss mice after 28 days of treatment. Keywords: diabetes mellitus, blood glucose, antlions

Abstract:

We have determined in the Iranian Research Institute of Plant Protection collection of two closely related species: Palpares libelluloides (Linnaeus, 1764) and P. turcicus Kocak, 1976 from Iranian provinces of Azarbayjan Sharghi, Kermanshah, Fars, Tehran, Kordestan, Markazi, Zanjan, and Lorestan, which are never recorded together in the same biotopes. New records of P. turcicus and other species of P. libelluloides species group from the countries of Transcaucasia, Asia, and Africa are presented based on the collection of the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ZIN). In the P. libelluloides species group, P. libelluloides is characterized by yellow abdomen with brown longitudinal lines. Abdominal pattern of P. hispanus Hagen, 1860, P. aeshnoides (Illiger, 1807) and P. turcicus is represented by brown rings on each segment, but these species can be easily differentiated from each other by size. The widely-allopatric species P. geniculatus Navas, 1912 and P. speciosus (Linnaeus, 1758) are characterized by entirely yellow abdomen without brownish pattern. The latter two species have mainly Afro-subtropical distribution, whereas other species of the group are West Palaearctic, mostly Ancient-Mediterranean species. The traditional name Palpares libelluloides (Linnaeus, 1764) is proposed to include into the List of Available Names in Zoology in accordance with the Article 79 of ICZN. This species is considered as P. libelluloides sensu stricto; its confirmed synonyms are Myrmeleon nordmanni Kolenati, 1846 (an immature form), and var. nigriventris A. Costa, 1855 and var. nigripes Navas, 1912 (melanistic specimens), which do not form natural populations. The neotype of Myrmeleon aeshnoides Illiger in Rossi, 1807 (Jerusalem, Romanov’s collection, ZIN), and the neotype of Hemerobius speciosus Linnaeus, 1758 (the collection of the Linnaean Society of London, № 2352) are designated.

Neste trabalho foi observado que M. brasiliensis ao serem expostas à uma situação que simula um micro-habitat com manchas que recebem alimento e manchas que não recebem alimento, as larvas de todos os instares ocuparam todo o espaço, independente da maior ou menor oferta de alimento. A ocorrência de canibalismo e construção de uma armadilha afastada das larvas vizinhas foram os fatores que guiaram a distribuição das larvas M. brasiliensis.

Abstract:

Antlions larvae are sit-and-wait predators that capture arthropod prey in conical sand pits. The aim of this paper were to determine the effect of different natural diets [leaf-cutting ants (Atta spp.), fruit fly larvae (Anastrepha spp. and Ceratitis capitata) and mixed diet (Atta spp. plus fruit fly larvae)] on the development of larvae and pupae of M. brasiliensis (Navás, 1914) and to estimate the number and size of prey caught in each instar and on each kind of diet. The average duration (days) of the second and third instars of M. brasiliensis was longer when larvae of antlion were fed with leaf-cutting ants. The diets did not affect the duration of the pupal stage nor the pupae size. The different diets did not affect the mean width of head capsule (mm), the mean weight (mg) or the mean body size (mm) in the different instars of M. brasiliensis. In the second and third instars, the larvae of M. brasiliensis fed with leaf-cutting ants consumed more prey than larvae kept on other diets. Adults whose larvae were fed fruit fly larvae were larger than adults on other diets. Although Myrmeleontidae are few studied in Brazil, these results contribute to knowledge of M. brasiliensis biology, but also suggest the need of studies about the development of larvae and pupae in natural environments.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Ant lions are insect larvae that feed on the liquefied internal components of insect prey. Prey capture is assisted by the injection of toxins that are reportedly derived from both the insect and bacterial symbionts. These larvae display interesting gut physiology where the midgut is not connected to the hindgut, preventing elimination of solid waste until adulthood. The presence of a discontinuous gut and the potential involvement of bacteria in prey paralyzation suggest an interesting microbial role in ant lion biology; however, the ant lion microbiota has not been described in detail. We therefore performed culture-independent 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis of the bacteria associated with tissues of an ant lion, Myrmeleon mobilis. All 222 sequences were identified as Proteobacteria and could be subdivided into two main groups, the α-Proteobacteria with similarity to Wolbachia spp. (75 clones) and the γ-Proteobacteria with similarity to the family Enterobacteriaceae (144 clones). The Enterobacteriaceae-like 16S rRNA gene sequences were most commonly isolated from gut tissue, and Wolbachia-like sequences were predominant in the head and body tissue. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analyses supported the localization of enterics to gut tissue and Wolbachia to nongut tissue. The diversity of sequences isolated from freshly caught, laboratory-fed, and laboratory-starved ant lions were qualitatively similar, although the libraries from each treatment were significantly different (P = 0.05). These results represent the first culture-independent analysis of the microbiota associated with a discontinuous insect gut and suggest that the ant lion microbial community is relatively simple, which may be a reflection of the diet and gut physiology of these insects.
