Book excerpt: Meloids are commonly referred to as "blister beetles" due to the toxin (cantharidin) they possess which can cause blistering of human skin. Several meloid species have long histories of negatively impacting agriculture resulting from large foraging aggregations and negatively impacting livestock health. Even with these important and interesting aspects, little is known about these beetles in their natural habitats. There are recent faunistic surveys of selected insect taxa in Wisconsin but a formal investigation of Meloidae is lacking. The blister beetle fauna of several states has been published, but this survey represents the first in the Midwestern United States. This study provides a comprehensive list of all meloid species documented from Wisconsin, as well as taxonomic keys and summaries for each species (species pages) which includes taxonomy, description, and natural history. During this survey, 28 species in seven genera were documented in Wisconsin, with 10 species considered new state records. Initial efforts identified Gnathium minimum (Say) with a limited distribution in Wisconsin which represents a peripheral or even disjunct population for the species. For these reasons I chose to further investigate the ecology of G. minimum. A marking study of G. minimum at Spring Green Prairie State Natural Area resulted in recapturing 54 of the 104 marked adults from 24 July to 16 August 2008. The maximum daily count was 34 while the maximum daily Jolly-Seber population size estimate was 59 individuals. Most individuals remained within 12 m of their original capture location, but 601 m was the maximum movement detected. I also conducted a G. minimum population genetics study to compare the genetic variation and magnitude of genetic differentiation of the Wisconsin peripheral population compared to the core population. The percent of polymorphic loci was 52.3 and 52.9, and expected heterozygosity 0.1815 and 0.1883 for the Kansas/Colorado and New Mexico/Texas regions, respectively. Specimens from Wisconsin had a lower percent of polymorphic loci (36.8) and expected heterozygosity (0.1438). FST values, isolation-by-distance patterns, and GENELAND genetic clusters provide evidence that dispersal among sampling locations is greater in the core population and that local populations in Wisconsin are more isolated

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are recent faunistic surveys of selected insect taxa (e.g. Mutillidae, Scarabaeoidea, and Tenebrionidae) in Wisconsin but a formal investigation of the Meloidae (blister beetles) is lacking. The blister beetle fauna of several states has been published, but this study represents the first in the Midwestern United States. We provide a comprehensive list of all meloid species documented from Wisconsin. Also included are taxonomic keys as well as summaries for each species (species pages) which includes taxonomy, description, and natural history. Specimens were obtained from public and private collections, and field sampling. This survey advances our knowledge of meloids in Wisconsin as well as provides a contribution beyond this geographic area. During this survey, 28 meloid species in seven genera were documented in Wisconsin from 2605 specimens. Of these taxa, 10 species are considered new state records. While Epicauta pensylvanica represented nearly half of the specimens reviewed, and likely inhabits all counties within the state, other species were rarely encountered. This includes 10 species which were represented by seven specimens or fewer in this study. It is unclear if the rarity of these specimens is correlated with the rarity of the species or if it is due to other factors. Regardless, these rarely collected meloids in Wisconsin warrant further attention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical insights relating to the distribution, natural history, and abundance of Ptinidae sensu lato, in Wisconsin and North America have been overlooked in many faunistic surveys and taxonomic studies, in part due to the relative difficulty in working with the contractile nature of many species and complexity of certain taxonomic characters. Work by H.C. Fall, R.E. White, and T.K. Philips significantly aided in the understanding of this family, although numerous genera are still in need of major revision. This study is the first state-wide survey of Wisconsin Ptinidae. It provides a comprehensive list of all ptinid species documented from Wisconsin, with taxonomic keys for their identification. Profiles for each species were compiled, including a taxonomic overview, capsule description, species diagnosis, and overview of their natural history. Specimens were collected using a variety of methods during two field seasons; Lindgren funnel traps and flight intercept traps were particularly significant. Trap samples from previous faunistic surveys of other taxa and mounted specimens from private and public research collections were also examined. Seventy-eight Wisconsin pest control companies and the University of Wisconsin insect diagnostic laboratory were consulted for information regarding indoor pest species of Ptinidae. During this survey, 28 genera and 64 species of Ptinidae were documented from the state from 2,063 specimens. Of these, 14 genera and 46 species are considered new state records, a 72% increase from the number of species known previously.
