Abstract

Background

The Ukrainian Anomaloninae fauna is relatively poorly known. The presence of large under-collected areas, such as the Carpathians, makes taxonomic and faunistic studies concerning these parasitoids from Ukraine urgently relevant.

New information

Based on our ongoing surveys on the Anomaloninae of the Ukrainian Carpathians, we report here the new distribution records for some species. In total 24 Anomaloninae species, belonging to 8 genera (Anomalon Panzer, 1804, Agrypon Förster, 1868, Aphanistes Förster, 1868, Barylypa Förster, 1868, Heteropelma Wesmael, 1849, Perisphincter Townes, 1961, Therion Curtis, 1829, and Trichomma Wesmael, 1849), were recorded from the studied region for the first time. Nine species, Agrypon batis Ratzeburg, 1955, A. scutellatum Hellén, 1926, Aphanistes gliscens Hartig, 1838, A. klugii Hartig, 1838, Heteropelma amictum Fabricius, 1775, Perisphincter gracilicornis Schnee, 1978, Therion giganteum Gravenhorst, 1829, Trichomma fulvidens Wesmael, 1849 and T. occisor Habermehl, 1909 were recorded for the first time in Ukraine. Seasonal dynamics and high-altitude zone of Anomaloninae species' distribution are discussed.

Introduction

Anomaloninae Viereck,1918 (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae) is a medium-sized cosmopolitan subfamily represented worldwide (Yu et al. 2012).

The s ubfamily Anomaloninae is divided into two tribes: Anomalonini with one genus Anomalon Panzer (parasitoids of Coleoptera larvae (Tenebrionidae and Elateridae) and some Lepidoptera larvae (Noctuidae and Tortricidae) and Gravenhorstiini containing the remaining genera (parasitoids of Lepidoptera larvae) (Schnee, 2014). The main morphological features of the subfamily Anomaloninae are: metasoma slender; propodeum usually coarsely reticulate; fore wing with vein 3rs-m absent; hind tarsi of male often swollen.

Unlike many other ichneumonids occuring in wet areas, some Anomaloninae species prefer dry places, such as steppes and forest-steppe regions. The Ukrainian fauna of the subfamily Anomaloninae is still poorly studied and represented just by 30 recorded species (Atanasov 1981, Nuzhna 2013). This paper provides the first list of Anomaloninae species recorded from the Ukrainian Carpathians, which includes some interesting records of quite rare species and new records for the Ukrainian fauna.

Materials and methods

This study is mainly based on specimens collected by sweep netting and Malaise traps. Sampling was conducted by the second author in various locations of the Ukrainian Carpathians and adjacent territories in 2009-2013. Specimens deposited in the collections of the Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology (Kiyv) and the Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian National University (Ivano-Frankivsk) were also studied. Morphological terminology used in the study follows that of Gauld (1991). The photos of the specimens were made using the camera Canon Power Shot A 4050 IS attached to light microscope Olympus SZX10. Some species were examined using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM: JEOL JSM-6480LV with a low vacuum option) in Royal Museum for Central Africa (Tervuren, Belgium). Specimens were identified using the keys compiled by Atanasov (1981), Gauld (1976), Gauld and Mitchell (1977), Nuzhna (2013), and Schnee (1978).

Analysis

Discussion

During investigations carried out in various locations of the Ukrainian Carpathians in 2009–2014 twenty four Anomaloninae species belonging to eight genera were recorded. Nine species, Agrypon batis Ratzeburg, 1955, A. scutellatum Hellén, 1926, Aphnistes gliscens Hartig, 1838, A. klugii Hartig, 1838, Heteropelma amictum Fabricius, 1775, Perisphincter gracilicornis Schnee, 1978, Therion giganteum Gravenhorst, 1829, Trichomma fulvidens Wesmael, 1849, T. occisor Habermehl, 1909 were recorded for the first time in Ukraine.

Anomaloninae species have been recorded in various high-altitude zones of the Ukrainian Carpathians (Table 1). Anomaloninae species were the most abundant in the foothill oak forest zone, reaching up to 150–400 m a. s. l. in Precarpathia and Transcarpathian lowland with mixed forests, where the main tree species are Quercus robur, Q. rubra, Caprinus sp., Fraxinus sp., Picea abies, Abies alba, and Pinus sylvestris, where sixteen species were collected. Ten species were found in the beech forest zone (400–1300 m a. s. l.) in Transcarpathia. Eight species were found in the coniferous boreal forest zone, situated at 900–1600 m a. s. l. in the mountainous part of the Carpathians, where the Piceeta-abietis community predominates. Fourteen species, mainly Agrypon and Aphanistes species, and one Therion species (Th. circumflexum) were also collected in the subalpine zone, at 1400–2061 m a. s. l., known as polonynys, which are high altitude open grasslands, partly taken over by bush. Only the widespread and common Th. circumflexum was found in all high-altitude zones, six species were collected in three zones, nine species were found in two zones, and eight species – in one zone. It is notable that most the interesting rare species and new Ukrainian records were collected mainly from the lowest and highest altitudes: in the foothill oak forest zone and subalpine zone.

The flight season of Anomaloninae adults is prolonged, lasting six months, from the beginning of April to the end of September (Table 2). The typical ‘steppe’ species, Anomalon cruentatum, was collected just at the end of June. This species in Central Ukraine (Kyiv region) has two emergences of adults: from the end of May to the middle of June and from the end of August to September, while in South Ukraine (Kherson region) it was collected from the end of June to the end of August. Two Agrypon species, A. anomelas and A. flexorioides, were collected at the beginning of August and in the middle of July, respectively. The remaining species of the genus have more prolonged flight periods lasting from one to almost three months usually late May – August. Only three species:, A. clandestinum, A. gracilipes and A. varitarsum, can be found in the Carpathians to the end of September. All three recorded Aphanistes species were collected during August, and in addition, A. klugii was found also at the beginning of April. Barylypa delictor was collected from May to August and Heteropelma species were found in the Carpathians from June to August. The flight period of Perisphincter gracilicornis in the Carpathians lasts from the beginning of June to the middle of July, while in Central Ukraine this species was collected from the middle of May untill the end of June. Probably the most common species, Therion circumflexum, was collected from May to September, another recorded species of the genus, Th giganteum, was found only in the middle of July and at the beginning of August. Among all Anomaloninae species Trichomma enecator has the longest flight period lasting from May to September, confirming the data from the other regions of Ukraine. The other two species, T. fulvidens and T. occisor were collected just during April and in the middle of June, respectively.
