This research aimed to establish the role of organisms, particularly arthropods, in a composting process, in order to set biological, physical and chemical parameters which allow evaluating the optimal quality of the final matter. For this purpose, a compost pile of urban solid waste separated at source (RSU - sf) was built in which sampling was carried out during two months for microbiological, entomological, and physicochemical testing. A matrix of successions was obtained, especially for insects associated with different development stages and its relationship to physical and chemical variables. Analyses evidenced a high correlation of family Enterobacteriaceae, with the abundance of species Chonocephalus sp. (Phoridae), Drosophila sp. (Drosophilidae), Physiphora sp. (Ulidiidae), Desmometopa sp. (Milichiidae) and Tephritidae. It was also found that the absence of these arthropods can be used as an indicator of system stability

It has beensuggested that these flies are attracted by floral scent. However, the scent that is emitted from Ceropegia flowers has not been studied usingheadspace and gas chromatography mass spectrometry methods. It has also been unclear whether or not the flowers are mimics of particularmodels that attract flies. In the present study, we determined the composition as well as the spatial and temporal patterns of floral scent emitted byC. dolichophylla. Furthermore, we determined the pollinators in the native (China) and non-native (Germany) range of this species, and tested thecapability of the floral scent to attract flies in the non-native range. Our data demonstrate that the floral scent, which is emitted from morning untilevening, primarily from the tips of the corolla lobes, consists mainly of spiroacetals and aliphatic compounds. Milichiid flies were commonvisitors/pollinators in the native as well as non-native range, and were attracted by floral scent in bioassays performed in the non-native range. Thecompounds emitted by C. dolichophylla are unusual for flowers, but are well known from insect pheromones and occur in the glandular secretionsof insects. The milichiid flies that visit and pollinate the flowers are kleptoparasites that feed on the prey (haemolymph or other secretions) ofpredatory arthropods, e.g. spiders, to which they are attracted by scent. Our data thus suggest that the floral scent of C. dolichophylla mimics thefeeding sites of kleptoparasitic flies.}, keywords = {China, Desmometopa sordida, Germany, Milichiidae, Neophyllomyza acyglossa, Neophyllomyza sp., pollination}, url = {http://milichiidae.info/sites/milichiidae.info/files/Heiduk\%20et\%20al_2010.pdf}, author = {A Heiduk and Irina Brake and Tolasch, T. and Frank, J. and J{\"u}rgens, A. and Meve, U. and D{\"o}tterl, S.} } @article {15870, title = {Bemerkenswerte Zweifl{\"u}gler aus Niedersachsen und Bremen (Insecta: Diptera) - 3.

The composition of this group and relationships among included families have been controversial. Furthermore, the delimitation of two opomyzoid families, Aulacigastridae and Periscelididae, has been unstable with respect to placement of the genera Stenomicra, Cyamops, and Planinasus. To test the monophyly of Opomyzoidea, previously proposed relationships between families, and the position of the three problematic genera, we sequenced over 3300 bp of nucleotide sequence data from the 28S ribosomal DNA and CAD (rudimentary) genes from 29 taxa representing all opomyzoid families, as well as 13 outgroup taxa. Relationships recovered differed between analyses, and only branches supporting well-established monophyletic families were recovered with high support, with a few exceptions. Opomyzoidea and its included subgroup, Asteioinea, were found to be non-monophyletic. Stenormicra, Cyamops, and Planinasus group consistently with Aulacigistridae, contrary to recent classifications. Xenasteiidae and Australimyzidae, two small, monogeneric families placed in separate superfamilies, were strongly supported as sister groups. [copyright]2009 Elsevier Inc.
