Slide TechniquesYou May Have Missed

What are some of the best ways toprepare microscope slides of genitalia,particularly when dealing with delicatestructures of the internal sac? Ideally, wewant the structures of the endophalusinflated and hardened so their three-dimensional information remains intact.Various systems are currently in useranging from mechanical inflation to theuse of chemicals to soften, expand, andfix the tissues.

The “phalloblaster” or vesica everter,inflates the genitalia with a stream ofpressurized absolute alcohol whichdehydrates and hardens the genitalia.They then remain inflated like a balloon.The results are said to be excellent, butthe device is costly. I suspect thestandard use of chemicals such asgelatine, glycerine and zinc sulfate willbe with us for a long time to come.

The technique used depends on thecondition of the specimens. Freshmaterial is easier to handle and producesexcellent results due to the supportingmuscle masses and fresh membranes.Dried material is harder to handle andrequires different techniques. Some ofour colleagues have suggested thefollowing references dealing withvarious techniques for the dissection andpreparation of genitalia.

THEFORVM

The genus Trirhabda LeConterepresents a group of leaf beetles feedingon narrow range of host plants from thefamily Asteraceae and Hydrophyllaceae.There are 34 extant species: 26 speciesin the United States and Canada (“north-ern species”) and 8 species in Mexicoand Central America (“southern spe-cies”) (Wilcox, 1971). The northernspecies, unlike other chrysomelids,overwinter in the egg stage. Larvae andadults feed on the leaves and inflores-cence of the host plant. Pupation occursin the soil. In contrast to what is knownabout the northern species, there is noinformation about host plant associationor life cycle of the southern species.

The genus is an interesting group forthe study of host plant shifts in thecontext of possible use in biocontrol,since the species feed on plants typicalof fields undergoing secondary succes-sion and the diversity of Trirhabda ismost likely a product of recent evolu-tion. Theoretically, if an insect speciesutilizes a host plant that is “new” withrespect to its sister species, import ofsuch an insect to a new environment (inorder to control the plant that is itsprimary host) may activate a feedingshift to the host plant of its congeners, ifthat plant is also present in the environ-ment, even though its primary host plantis present. This would be possible if thephysiological mechanisms for feedingon ancestral hosts were retained.Knowledge of potential host shifts(obtained from a phylogeny) is impor-tant in order to avoid ecologicallydamaging introductions of a biological

agent to a non-native habitat. Our study is designed to determine the

evolutionary relationships among Trirhabdaspecies and to develop a hypothesis of thehistory of host plant association. Thephylogeny will also be used to analyzepatterns in the distribution of species and tofind the most likely geographical origin ofthe genus and the ancestral host plant.Phylogenetic relationships among Trirhab-da species will be inferred from analysis ofmorphological and molecular characters.Morphological characters are drawn fromthe adult stage of both males and females.The molecular datasets include the mito-chondrial 12S ribosomal RNA and cyto-chrome oxidase I, and the second internaltranscribed spacer of nuclear rRNA. Sincethe genus Trirhabda represent morphologi-cally homogeneous group, molecular dataare believed to explicate the evolutionaryrelationship among Trirhabda species.

Here we present preliminary results of

molecular analysis of 16 Trirhabdaspecies based on combined COI andITS2 data (Fig.1). Let us point out afew interesting features of the results.Trirhabda species group according totheir host plant. There are two majorclades, one of which is composed ofspecies feeding on Solidago (Aster-aceae) and the other contains speciesfeeding on Artemisia (Anthemideae).All analyses (not shown) revealed T.bacharidis within the Solidagofeeders. Trirhabda bacharidis feedson Baccharis halimifolia, whichbelongs to the same family asSolidago (Asteraceae). Trirhabdaflavolimbata is a species feeding onBaccharis pilularis, but it occurswithin the clade of Artemisia feeders.This indicates convergent evolutionof the two species to Baccharis hostplants. Trirhabda bacharidis is foundin the coastal region of the US from

Every year, near the end of October,Coleopterists from all over Germany gettogether in a cottage-style hotel inBeutelsbach near Stuttgart. Theyexchange a variety of informationdealing with a wide range of subjectsincluding faunistics, taxonomy andsystematics to name a few. They bringboxes with lots of beetles to show andexchange with colleagues.

On this same weekend, there isanother meeting entitled “Beetles andComputer” and also the opportunity tovisit the collections of the StaatlicheMuseum für Naturkunde. This meetingis coorganized by W. Schawaller(Naturkundemuseum, Stuttgart) and J.Frank (The Society of Coleopterists ofsouthwestern Germany).

On Saturday and Sunday, there werepresentations dealing with a variety ofsubject matter including taxonomy,faunal projects, special ecologicalproblems, famous Coleopterists andbeetle collecting trips.

The program contains at least onemajor presentation (sometimes three)involving Chrysomelidae. Historically,these chrysomelid presentations havebeen of immense interest to our col-

ChrysomelidFauna Project

Most of this group are workingtogether to publish a ChrysomelidFauna of Central Europe. Thisarea includes Belgium, France(small eastern part), The Nether-lands, Germany, Poland, Austria,Switzerland, Czech Republic,Slovakia, Hungary and small partsof northern Italy and Slovenia.Administrator of the project’scentral database is Theo MichaelSchmitt (Museum Koenig, Bonn).Each subfamily assigned to aspecial coordinator while othercolleagues work on all subfamilieswithin single geographical area.

A computer program was builtspecifically for this project tomanage thousands of data records(both published and unpublished).This application, named “CHRY-FAUN,” is used by the collabora-tors to enter their data which willeventually be collected andmanaged by the project coordina-tor. We hope that the availabilityof the program will make itpossible to finish the projectwithin the next few years. Infor-mation is being collected on allcentral European chrysomelids,especially rare species. Allpublished data concerning theinvestigation area are of specialinterest.

During March 2000, Uwe Heinig and I had the opportunityto travel to, and collect in, Zimbabwe. The conditions seemedperfect. The rainy season had just ended, and we foundZimbabwe to be abeautiful country withlush foliage and younggreen sprouts almosteverywhere.

Although the journeywasn’t intended exclu-sively as a collecting trip,possibilities to collectwere plentiful for themembers of the group.Uwe and I mainlycollected chrysomelidsand bruchids; othermembers were interestedin, for example, Scara-baeidae, Hemiptera,Formicidae or Diptera.

One of the mostinteresting localitiesvisited was the BvumbaMountain area. Thisplace, situated on theborder of Mozambique, has beautiful cloud forests. Theforests had some open places due to recent hurricanes. Theseplaces will become most interesting during the coming years,due to the invasion of many plant species. I waslucky to collect the beautiful Prosmidia dregei dregeiin this area. When alive, these beetles are coloredbright orange and black. Unfortunately, in collec-tions the orange changes to yellow-brown.

Here, we also collected specimens of differentDiacantha spp. along a small stream. Among them,Diacantha silvana, a species most probably endemicto the mountain region on the Zimbabwe-Mozam-bique border. It has been described from specimenscollected in Chirinda forest, an ancient forest about150 km South of Bvumba. I also have seen manyspecimens from Chimanimani, some 80 km south ofBvumba.

Another very interesting area is near Umguza(130 km Northwest of Bulawayo). Here, thesavannah was mixed with a woodland type consist-ing of small trees standing rather close together. Wecollected many leaf and bean beetles and somecassidine pupae (I hoped that beetles would emergeduring our journey, but they didn’t). The pupaesurvived the journey and the trip back to Holland.Some time after arriving home, two parasitic waspsemerged. Unfortunately, the remaining pupae havenot developed into adult beetles.

In the surroundings of Marondera, Uwe collected speci-mens of Eupachytoma rugosa, a first record for this species in

Zimbabwe. The type locality of this species issomewhere in Zambia (previously NorthernRhodesia).

In Bulawayo I visited the Natural HistoryMuseum. The museum is small with a modestcollection of Chrysomelidae. The curator, Mr.Mukai Mawanza, was kind enough to have somegalerucine specimens of interest to me packagedand sent to me in Europe. The address of theBulawayo Natural History Museum is, P. O. Box240, Bulawayo, ZIMBABWE. E-mail:[email protected].

Although each day and every locality wasinteresting, these are just a few of the highlights.Added to this were the beautiful shores of LakeKariba, where insect collecting was combined withelephant watching.

The political situation in Zimbabwe duringMarch allowed us to travel as we planned. Al-though the availability of fuel was a problem, ourhost from Zimbabwe always found a way to keepus moving. However, when we left, the situationgot worse. Fuel was nearly impossible to get dueto rampant inflation. Also, nearly 400 farms had

been taken over by "war veterans." Currently (June 2000), Idon’t think anyone should consider going to Zimbabwe onsuch a trip. This is unfortunate since the country is absolutely

beautiful and thevast majority of thepeople hospitable. Ihope peace willreturn to the regionsoon.

Uwe and Ireturned to Europewith a large numberof insect specimensto be analyzed. Iplan to do most ofthe Galerucinae(excl. Alticini)myself; the othersubfamilies will besent to otherchrysomelidworkers for deter-mination. However,first the beetlesmust be preparedand labelled, a jobthat will take sometime.

The First Czech Chrysomelidist Meeting

by Miroslav Zúber, Kosmonosy

The first meeting of the Czech Chrysomelidists was held in Bradlec, CzechRepublic in June, 2000. Participants were Jan Bezdek, Frantisek Kantner, andMiroslav Zúber. Subjects discussed during the meeting ranged from current research

activities to the basis for a checklist of the leaf beetles of the Czech Republic.In recent years, this group has collected many new species from the Czech

Republic Territory including, Pachnephorus villosus, Chrysolina rufoaenea, Chryso-lina eurina, Cryptocephalus bameuli, Galerucella aquatica, Longitarsus celticus,Cassida bergeali, Cassida leucanthemi, and others. The next meeting is scheduled forSummer 2001, date and location to be announced.

Host Plants for OregonCoastal Species of

Timarcha Hald.

George Poinar, Corvallis

Two species of the interestingHolarctic genus Timarcha occur alongthe Oregon coast. I have collectedlarvae of the smaller, brown species, T.cerdo Stål from Thimbleberry, Rubusparviflorus and Salmonberry, Rubusspectabilis and reared them to adults onthese plant species in the laboratory.

Thus far, I have discovered only onesmall population of T. intricata, thelarvae of which were feeding on Salal,Gaultheria shallon. These larvae werereared to adults on Salal leaves in thelaboratory, always refusing leaves of theabove mentioned Rubus species. Hatch(“Beetles of the Pacific Northwest,” PartV) mentioned T. intricata feeding ongrouseberry,Vaccinium scoparium,Thimbleberry and woodland strawberry,Fragaria vesca, however I have beenunable to find any host records of aTimarcha feeding on Salal.

It appears that T. intricata may becomposed of several biological races,morphologically similar, but adapted todifferent host plants, thus far limited tothe widely divergent families Rosaceaeand Ericaceae.

On October 6-11, 2000,Dave Furth and Wills Flowerswent to Victoria City inTamaulipas, Mexico Ph.D.committee participants forSantiago Niño Maldonado. Thesubject of Santiago's disserta-tion was the "Chrysomelidae ofthe El Cielo Reserva (a bio-sphere reserve) in the SierraMadre Occidental of Tamauli-pas."

On October 7th, we attempt-ed to visit the Reserve, but wereprevented from visiting due toextensive flooding as a result ofHurricane Keith which wasthere just a few days before our

planned visit. We were,however, able to get into themountains near the entrance ofthe Reserve at Gomas Faria but,again, flooded roads did notallow us to go further.

We spent a couple ofevenings at Santiago's houseidentifying Alticinae andEumolpinae from his extensivecollections. On October 9th,we questioned Santiago forseveral hours for his generaloral exam; on October 10th, weexamined him concerning hisdissertation research. Hepassed both exams well.

A meeting of five European chry-someline specialists was held at EnGauly (Ariège, Pyrenees of France) fromJuly 17-20, 2000. En Gauly is a small,

quiet, peaceful community of only fiveor six houses. The event was hosted byJean-Claude Bourdonné at his home(still under construction). Thoseattending the meeting were our host (J-CB.), Jacques Pasteels, Horst Kippenberg,Mauro Daccordi and me. We all enjoyedJean-Claude's outstanding hospitality,who supplied us with many varieties ofFrench cheeses, patés, and sausages.This, combined with other food broughtby the guests, provided a warm andfruitful atmosphere throughout themeeting.

During the meeting, Jean-Claudedemonstrated a number of simple, butefficient ways in which he suppliesdifferent species of Chrysolina withfresh host plant material, whose stalkswere dipped in water. Then, Jacquesshowed us some fantastic specimens ofour favorite beetles which he collectedin Panama, just a week before thismeeting. We all exchanged interestingspecimens from the European fauna to

enrich our knowledge and add to ourcollections.

The day of July 18th was entirelydevoted to discussing each participantsrespective research and the taxonomy ofChrysolina and Oreina. Here, it becameapparent that there were two opinionsconcerning these groups; splitters(supporting Jean-Claude’s research) andlumpers. The splitters won by vote ofthree to two, although we all agreed thatmore effort and research was needed onthis subject. Jacques also told us aboutthe analysis that he and his group juststarted on defensive substances andphylogeny of the Neotropical genusPlatyphora. Horst then told us about hiswork on the taxonomy of the Goniocte-na variabilis cluster, and I announced

the publication of my first book on theIberian Chrysomelidae. At the end of thisday we said farewell to Mauro and to hisgirl-friend Monica who returned to Italy.However, they didn’t take the deliciousfettuccine that Monica prepared thatmorning; the four of us that remainedenjoyed it for dinner that evening.

On July 19th, we went on a collect-ing trip to La Tourbière des Mouillèresin Quérigut (Ariège), where everyone(except me) succeeded in collecting therare Hydrothassa hannoveriana german-ica (Horst was kind enough to give me aspecimen as consolation for my frustra-tion). Additionally, we also capturedseveral species of Cryptocephalus, someflea-beetles, and a good number ofGaleruca laticollis. After some excel-lent collecting during the first part of theday, we had a substantial picnic there atMouillères. After lunch, we beganlooking for more leaf beetles. Wecollected for almost an hour beforeheavy rain forced us to quit collecting atthis location. After an hour and a halfof driving, we arrived at Espezel-Quirines (Aude). This site was not asrich in leaf beetles, but everybodycaught at least two or three differentspecies.

On the morning of July 20th, Jacquesand I left En Gauly for Brussels andMallorca. Horst stayed at Jean-Claude'sfor another two days and went collectingon a stream at Laurenti in Quérigut(Ariège)—nearly 2000m altitude—where he collected several specimens ofOreina fairmairana, a species uncom-mon in collections. Following this, hedeparted for his home in Herzogenau-rach.

Although everyone on the groupknew each another, these two and a halfdays at Jean Claude’s house were mostvaluable. They served to increasedpersonal interrelationships, help set upcooperation in research, and provide anoutlet for exchanges in our of points ofview. Indeed, a most valuable experi-ence.

We are searching for any originalillustrations of Doris H. Blake thatcolleagues may have obtained in the pasteither directly from Mrs. Blake or fromother colleagues. We would like to haveall of Mrs. Blake's original illustrationstogether at the U. S. National Museumof Natural History (USNMNH). Theseoriginals are especially useful becausemost of her figures were originally made

very large and then reduced greatly forpublication, thus often resulting in thepublished figures being too small toclearly illustrate some characters.

Doris H. Blake spent her entirecareer associated with the USNMNH.Recently, in the USNMNH Departmentof Entomology, we have put together anarchive room for original illustrations(original art) from the publications of the

various scientists that worked here in thepast. This project includes archivalquality folders, with special cabinets tohouse these illustrations; we have begunto conserve, organize, and catalogue thecollections and, eventually, the imageswill be digitally captured and availableto everyone through our website.

Please help us gather all of Doris H.Blake's original figures. If you have anyideas where there may be some of these,please let me know.

Texas to Maine and its distributionoverlaps with the distribution of thesister taxon, T. canadensis. Both speciesexhibit a similarly shaped aedeagus.Trirhabda flavolimbata is found inCalifornia, as well as its sister taxon, T.luteocincta. The two species also expresssimilarities in the shape of their aedeagi.Trirhabda bacharidis is a medium torobust, pale yellow beetle with suturaland median vitta present. Its sistertaxon, T. canadensis, is also a mediumsized, pale yellow beetle with vittae. Onthe other hand, T. flavolimbata is arobust green or blue metallic beetle as isits sister taxon, T. luteocincta. Trirhabdaadela, that has been often mistakenlyidentified as T. canadensis and viceversa, is at the base of the Solidagofeeders and not as a sister taxon of T.canadensis as one would expect.

Trirhabda diducta and T. eriodictyon-is were revealed as sister taxa. Bothspecies feed on Eriodictyon sp. (Hydro-phyllaceae) and their distributionsoverlap in California and Utah. Theirclose relationship was also suggested bysimilar morphology (Blake, 1931;Hogue, 1970). The placement of the cladevaried among analyses. It is hoped thatwith inclusion of all Trirhabda species therelationship of T. diducta and T. eriodicty-onis to other taxa will be solved.

In summary, the preliminaryanalysis showed that species grouptogether according to their host plant butsome species experienced independentshift to similar host plants. Some of theshifts are also supported morphological-ly and are geographically reasonable. Itis believed that inclusion of all taxa willhelp to resolve the phylogeny and thehistory of host-plant shifts amongTrirhabda species and will also help toanswer the ancestral host plant and thegeographical origin of the genus.

DNA sequencing, unlike morpholo-gy, is most easily accomplished withfresh specimens or, at least, specimensthat have been collected within the last20 years. We are having difficultyobtaining fresh specimens of some of themore narrowly distributed species. Themajority of museum specimens we havein our study are more than 40 years oldand hence are not suitable for DNAextractions. We would appreciate any

kind of help with obtaining fresh or lessthan 20 years old specimens of thefollowing species: T. attenuata Say, T.gurneyi Blake, T. labrata Fall , T.neoscotidae Blake, T. pubicollis Blake,T. schwarzi Blake, and T. viridicyaneaBlake. We would be very happy toexchange specimens of other species ofTrirhabda or other chrysomelidscollected in Mexico or New Jersey. Ourmethod for the DNA extractions (seeDuckett and Swigonova, 2000) utilizesone or two legs of a specimen leavingthe rest untouched.

Sciences Naturelles, Paris Cedex 250pp.229 figs.+26 plates (20 in color, about 4photos each pg.). ISBN 2-903052-21-2,paperback, in French; cost, approx. $60(USD). For information on entire series:<http://www.insects.demon.co.uk/faune-france.html>.

True to the series, this work is similarin form and facies to volume 2 on theAlticines by Serge Doguet published in1994. It possesses the same high qualityworkmanship, covering four genera and39 species. Keys to larvae and pupae(when known) are presented, and thekeys are easy to use, especially for thoseof us with (very) limited skills in theFrench language.

Each species description containstaxonomic and usage citations, life stagedescriptions (where known), anddistribution records. Additionally, thereare drawings of the aedeagus, spermath-eca, and apodeme of the ejaculatory sac.

The bibliography is large enough tobe of real use. Remaining featuresinclude a host plant index, parasite/predator list, species distribution maps,and color plates of many of the adults,larvae, and hosts.

In general, an excellent work andworth a spot in everyone’s library.

Sunday—Field TripThe group (photo page 1) traveled to

a new local reserve in the State ofParana called Cabeáa do Cachorro(Dog's Head), in Toledo County, about130 kilometers northeast of IguassuFalls. It was a rainy day, nevertheless,18 of us (from 10 countries) rented twominivans (with drivers) and drove about90 minutes to the small town near thereserve. Because of the rain, the last 8kilometers of dirt road to the reservefrom the main highway was too muddyfor the minivans. We returned to thesmall town nearthe reserve to try andlocate someone with better vehicles totransport us to the reserve. We waited ina small restaurant for about 2 hourswhere we had a typical Parana lunch.Then two vehicles from the reserve tookus in several trips to the reserve. We hadseveral hours to wander the reserve and,fortunately, the rain finally stopped. Thedirector of the reserve gave us a warmwelcome and he said he was very proudthat his reserve could host such aninternational group of scientists.

The Proceedings of the FISCB willbe published in Brazil. Manuscripts willbe compiled by David Furth after April2001 and reviewed by various col-leagues before turning them over to thepublisher in Brazil.


Identification of a Gene Region That Gives Good Phylogenetic Signalfor Determining High Level Divergences Within Alticine and

Galerucine Chrysomelids

In the last ten years, many leafbeetle workers have begun using DNAsequences to infer phylogeneticrelationships at varying levels withinthe Chrysomelidae. Sometimes theseresulting molecular phylogenies areconcordant with traditional systematichypotheses (Farrell 1998), while othersoffer alternative and unexpectedrelationships for the taxa in question(Hsiao & Windsor 1999).

One of the most crucial decisions tobe made when performing a molecularphylogenetic analysis is choosing generegions that are practical for the systemunder investigation (more simply, thoseregions that contain appropriatedegrees of variation and are easy toamplify and sequence). Becausenucleotides evolve at varying rateswithin and among organisms (Crozier& Crozier, 1993, and others), differentgene regions are useful at differenttaxonomic levels, or divergence times.Also, a sampling of at least two generegions from separate cellular locales(ie: mitochondria and nucleus) is idealfor uncovering the phylogenetic historyof the organism as opposed to the history

of one gene (Lanyon, 1988) or organelle.Since the monophyly of both the

galerucines (Lingafelter & Konstanti-nov 2000) and the alticines (Reid,1995; Crowson & Crowson, 1996)have been questioned in morphologicalanalyses, we decided a molecularapproach might attempt to resolvethese conflicting hypotheses. In ourexperience, separate analyses of singlegene regions within the nuclearelongation factor 1-alpha gene (EF1-a)and the mitochondrial cytochromeoxidase 1 (COI) and small ribosomalsubunit 12 (12 S) genes have providedconfusing results that are contradictoryto any current taxonomic or hypothe-sized phylogenetic positions of the taxain question. Both equally and differen-tially weighted parsimony analyses ofthese gene regions contain homoplasticsignal at least in most taxa sampled(Gillespie, 2001). While failing touncover higher level relationshipswithin alticine and galerucine taxa, webelieve that these gene regions docontain phylogenetic information, mostlikely in lower levels of divergence —EF1-a is appropriate for oedionychine

flea beetles (Duckett & Kjer, in prep.),and COI recovers close genericrelationships in the galerucine tribeLuperini (Gillespie, 2001).

We have recently discovered thatthe D2 region of the large nuclearribosomal subunit (28 S) evolves at arate that is useful for inferring histori-cal relationships between galerucineand alticine chrysomelids. A parsimo-ny analysis of the D2 from over ninetygalerucines and alticines elicits goodphylogenetic signal with resolution attribal and subfamilial levels in Galeru-cinae sensu stricto (Chrysomelinae,Orsodacninae and Eumolpinae asoutgroups). While these findings arestill preliminary, we believe that the D2is a valuable molecular tool foruncovering deep divergences withinclosely related chrysomelid subfami-lies. Furthermore, when this slowerevolving, more functionally con-strained region is coupled with fasterevolving protein coding genes (such asCOI and EF1-a), apical nodes ofgenerated trees comprised of closelyrelated genera and species are strength-ened. This combined analysis of two

Fig. 1. The alignment above follows the conventions of Kjer (1995) where nucleotides identical to the nucleotidein the top line are represented by a period (.) and absence of a nuclotide relative to the longest sequence is

symbolized by a dash (-). Nucleotides of paired stems are shown between bars (| |) and underlined if hydrogenbonds to their complementary nucleotide exist. Bracketed nucleotides are excluded from the analysis,

however,the number following the bracket represents the coded character state assigned to the unalignable loop.These codes are analysed as if they were morphological multistate characters.


or more independent and functionallydisparate gene regions lies at the core ofthe construction of a molecular phylo-genetic hypothesis that will lend clarityto the long-standing state of confusionregarding the relationships within thegalerucine/alticine complex. Thisphylogenetic framework will also provevaluable in testing various hypothesesconcerning these beetle groups, includ-ing evolution of foliage feeding,biogeography and the evolution ofcucurbitacin pharmacophagy in thegalerucine tribe Luperini (most recentlyTallamy et al, 1999).

We consider it imperative to ac-knowledge secondary structure whenusing ribosomal RNA to infer phyloge-netic relatedness. The identification ofpairing stems allows for more difficultregions to be aligned (Kjer 1995). Inmolecular studies alignment is equiva-lent to homology assesment. Even withstructural information, some regionsremain unalignable, and in the past,workers have excluded unalignableregions from analyses . In this research,aligning rRNA according to secondarystructure has yielded many informativecharacters, particularly in defining andthen coding these unalignable regions.The accompanying figure shows aportion of the D2 region from sevengalerucine/alticine taxa (AO = Oedi-onychina alticines, A = alticines, G =Galerucinae) and two outgroups (O =Orsodacninae, C = Chrysomelinae).Long-range stems (1 & 1’; 2 & 2’) areshown barred (| |); with complimentarybase pairs underlined . RNA folds backon itself so that region 1 hydrogenbonds with 1’ as does 2 with 2’; withintervening nucleotides remainingsingle stranded. This particular treat-ment of the data identifies alignableregions in which homology can beinferred. We follow a novel approachto coding unalignable regions, or indels(I), from recent literature (Kjer, et al,submitted; Lutzoni, et al, 2000) wherethe nucleotides of the area are excludedfrom the analysis but coded as if theywere morphological characters. Com-pare C. knahi ‘unalignable loop I’region with C. populi, Stenoluperus,

and Phyllobrotica. The sequences areidentical in the two Chrysomelaspecies, and in Stenoluperus andPhyllobrotica, but establishment ofnucleotide by nucleotide homologybetween the two sequences is indefensi-ble. Although unalignable, importantphylogenetic information from theseloop regions is retained by this coding.

Fauna Iberica, Vol. 13

This first chrysomelid volumes in theFauna Iberica series covers more than200 of the approximately 800 species inseven subfamilies known to occur on theIberian Peninsula. The work is thoroughin scope and well illustrated. Althoughlabeled as 229 figures, there are usuallymultiple illustrations in each; more onthe order of 600-700 illustrations. Thereare habitis illustrations for each speciesand, with few exceptions, a dorsal andlateral illustration of the aedeagus.

The first 66 pages deal with generalchrysomelid information and includes ahistory of leaf beetle classification,distribution, general leaf beetle morphol-ogy (adult, larva, and pupa), naturalhistory, and collection techniques.

The keys are primairly to the adultsand include Subfamily through speciesincluding Tribe and Subgenus. TheSubfamily keys (both larval and adults)includes all 13 groups although only 7 ofthe Subfamilies are dealt with in thisvolume. The remainder of the keys(Tribe through species) deal only withthe adults.

In general, an excellent work althougha bit too large to carry into the ffield.
