A New Species

AbstractDioryctria resinosella, a species feeding on red pine cones or shoots, is described as new and recorded from Maine, southern Ontario, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. The new species is distinguished from D. zimmermani (Grote) and D. banksiella Mutuura & Munroe by the differences in wing markings, genitalia characters, and ecological aspects.

AbstractBehavioral differences between a Conophthorus beetle attacking jack pine shoot tips and the red pine cone beetle, C. resinosae Hopkins, were studied. In field experiments the red pine cone beetle attacked cones and shoots of both pines but preferred cones over shoots and red pine cones over jack pine cones. The jack pine tip beetle attacked both jack pine and red pine snoots, but no progeny appeared in red pine shoots. In laboratory tests, the red pine cone beetle survived equally well in vapors of simulated red and jack pine shoot resin, while the jack pine tip beetle survived best in the jack pine resin vapor. The jack pine tip beetle is described as a new species, Conophthorus banksianae McPherson.

A New Species

AbstractThe order Intejocerida is an enigmatic, short-lived cephalopod taxon known previously only from Early–Middle Ordovician beds of Siberia and the United States. Here we report a new genus, Cabaneroceras, and a new species, C. aznari, from Middle Ordovician strata of central Spain. This finding widens the paleogeographic range of the order toward high-paleolatitudinal areas of peri-Gondwana. A curved conch, characteristic for the new genus, was previously unknown from members of the Intejocerida.UUID: http://zoobank.org/21f0a09c-5265-4d29-824b-6b105d36b791

A New Species

From a study of living materials and specimens in several regional herbaria, a list has been drawn up of all the common and several of the rarer tube-dwelling diatoms of eastern Canada. Descriptions, illustrations of living material and acid-cleaned valves, and a key to the species are provided. Most specimens were from the Atlantic Provinces and the St. Lawrence estuary, but a few were from the Northwest Territories. By far the most common species is Berkeleya rutilans. Other species occurring commonly in the Quoddy Region of the Bay of Fundy, and sporadically in space and time elsewhere, arc Navicula delognei (two forms), Nav. pseudocomoides, Nav. smithii, Haslea crucigera, and a new species, Nav.rusticensis. Navicula ramosissima and Nav. mollis in eastern Canada are usually found as scattered cohabitants in tubes of other species. Nitzschia tubicola and Nz. fontifuga also occur sporadically as cohabitants.

Eurasian Species

The frequency of the middorsally striped morph of Rana sylvatica in Ontario and Manitoba varies from absence in southern Ontario to 80% on the coast of Hudson Bay, with a general value of 20–30% in the boreal forest, a rise to 50% on the forest–grassland ecotone in southern Manitoba, and a decline westward to 20% on the edge of the prairies. This morph is rare in the northeastern United States and Maritime Canada. The suggested relationship between its frequency and the "grassiness" of the background on which predators view it is reexamined, and it is suggested that a linkage with earlier transformation as demonstrated in Eurasian species may explain certain anomalies.

A New Species

Three Asclerobia species from the Palaearctic region are reviewed and diagnosed. A new species—Asclerobia alexandrae sp. nov. from Tyva region of Russia is described. The lectotype of Sclerobia tchahabarella Amsel, 1950 is designated, and the new combination—Asclerobia tchahabarella (Amsel, 1950) comb. nov. is proposed. A key to the species is given based on the combination of external and genitalia characters of both sexes.
