Asystematic review of the Mediterranean region species of the sylvicola group of Corticaria Marsham, 1802 is carried out. An identification key for the determination of those 21 species is provided. Morphological structures of the studied species are re-appraised and figures are provided of head, antennae, pronotum, and aedeagus with internal armature. The true identity of Corticaria tunisiensis Brisout de Barneville, 1884 is established by examination of the specimens of the collection of National Museum of Natural History, Paris, here designating a male lectotype and paralectotypes of both sexes.

History Information

The aequata-group of the subgenus Eucera s. str. Scopoli from the Eastern Mediterranean region, Bulgaria, and Iran is described, and the three species included are revised. The little-known E. aequata Vachal 1907 known from Turkey, Cyprus, Syria and Israel, is redescribed and a Lectotype is designated. Two species are described as new: E. dafnii sp. nov. from Iran, Israel, Syria, Turkey, Bulgaria, and Greece, and E. wattsi sp. nov. from Israel and Lebanon. An identification key is provided, and natural history information including assessment of preferred pollen host plants is presented.

One New Species

The Triglochin bulbosa complex (Juncaginaceae) from the Mediterranean region and Africa is revised. One new species, Triglochin buchenaui Köcke, Mering & Kadereit, and two new subspecies, Triglochin bulbosa subsp. calcicola Mering, Köcke & Kadereit and Triglochin bulbosa subsp. quarcicola Mering, Köcke & Kadereit, are described from South Africa. The only two Mediterranean taxa in the complex (Triglochin barrelieri, T. laxiflora) are elevated to species rank. Altogether seven species and four subspecies are recognised: Triglochin barrelieri, T. buchenaui, T. bulbosa subsp. bulbosa, T. bulbosa subsp. calcicola, T. bulbosa subsp. quarcicola, T. bulbosa subsp. tenuifolia, T. compacta, T. elongata, T. laxiflora and T. milnei. An identification key, detailed descriptions and accounts of the ecology and distribution of the taxa are provided. An IUCN conservation status is proposed for each taxon.

Abstract This paper presents the results of the study on the Cerambycidae and Chrysomelidae material collected during the “Dakhla” (2012) and “Merzouga” (2013) scientific expeditions, organized by “Grigore Antipa” National Museum of Natural History (Bucharest, Romania) in Morocco. A total of 18 species belonging to 13 genera and 5 subfamilies were recorded. In addition, the general distribution and data about the biology of some species are given. From the strictly Mediterranean species, entered in the collections of “Grigore Antipa” Museum, we mention: Derolus mauritanicus (Buquet), Neoplocaederus caroli (Leprieur), Agapanthia annularis (Olivier), A. irrorata (Fabricius), Macrolenes dentipes (Olivier), Chrysolina viridana chloris (Lucas), C. bankii (Fabricius), Labidostomis hordei (Fabricius), L. taxicornis (Fabricius), Lachnaia paradoxa (Olivier), L. puncticollis Chevrolat, Tituboea sexmaculata (Fabricius) and Cryptocephalus rugicollis Olivier. Lachnaia octomaculata (Pic) is an endemic species in North-Africa (Algeria, Morocco).

Relative Motions

Some considerations are reported on the tectonic setting and microplate mosaic in the Mediterranean zones where VLBI and SLR stations are located. In particular, the possible sources of ambiguity in the determination of the Africa-Eurasia and Adriatic-Eurasia relative motions from geodetic data are discussed. Possible alternative kinematic interpretations, with respect to those reported in the literature, are then proposed.
