    Description / Table of Contents: Rove beetles (Staphylinidae) are common elements of the soil biota, living in the litter and deeper soil layers. Although they are one of the most diverse and speciose groups of insects, no comprehensive books on their general evolution and ecology are as yet available. This book fills that gap, discussing significant aspects and active research examples in the fields of phylogeny and systematics, ecology and conservation, and reproduction and development. The combination of review chapters and case studies provides an excellent introduction to the biology of rove beetles and enables readers to become familiar with active research fields in this megadiverse group of beetles. Offering easy access to these fields, it also demonstrates how staphylinids are used as bioindicators in applied ecosystem research, including that concerning conservation issues. Experienced scientists and beginners alike find the diversity of subjects covered intriguing and inspiring for continuing and starting their own research. The book is intended for students and researchers in biology and zoology (entomology), including morphologists, ecologists, soil scientists, evolutionary biologists, paleontologists, biogeographers, taxonomists and systematists

    Notes: Abstract  The elongated labium of rove beetles of the genus Stenus forms an adhesion–capture apparatus that enables the animal to catch fast fleeing prey, for example, collemboles. Structural details of this labium have been reinvestigated by using transmission electron microscopy, and the functional model of the capture mechanism has been refined. The openings of glandular ductules have been found to be located at the outer margin of the sticky cushions formed by the paraglossae. These cushions can be expanded by hemolymph pressure and are compressed when the tip of the protrusible labium hits the prey. Endocuticular fibers stabilize the cushions internally and determine the shape of the cushions in both the expanded and the compressed state. Within the membranous connecting tube that connects the prementum with the head capsule, the existence of an extra inner membrane has been confirmed. It is formed by a portion of the epidermis that has become detached from the cuticle. The most important part of the functional model of the protrusion of the labium is that the membranous connecting tube turns itself inside out distally, but the extra inner membrane does so proximally. During protrusion of the labium by hemolymph pressure, the prementum is accelerated during the initial phase of the process, and the nerves, muscles, tracheae, and glandular ductules that are attached to it are passively drawn into the labium. The mechanoreceptive function of setae at the distal end of the prementum has been confirmed on the basis of their ultrastructural characteristics.

    Description: Amphipods are key species linking primary consumers such as copepods with higher trophic levels like marine mammals and sea birds. Studying Arctic pelagic amphipods in the Fram Strait region over a period of 15 years represents an outstanding opportunity in determining range shifts since only three species of the genus Themisto dominate the upper pelagic system of Fram Strait. Samples from sediment traps of the Long-Term-Ecological Research (LTER) observatory HAUSGARTEN in the northeastern Fram Strait (79°N, 4°C) have been used to obtain year-round abundance time series from the year 2000 until 2014. For this period range shifts in amphipods are evident:, the North-Atlantic species T. compressa was first observed in the samples in the eastern Fram Strait in 2004. It is further shown for recent years (2004 -2014) that this southern intruder got established in the Fram Strait. Also, the latest abundance development of the native species – the boreal T. abyssorum and the Arctic T. libellula – is described and related to environmental data such as marine current velocity, current direction, water temperature, and sea ice extend. Grouping patterns of yearly averaged amphipod abundances per mooring using multivariate statistics varied indicating a highly diverse system. Whether or not these dynamics are due to climate change or natural variability cannot yet be stated. A shift in the abundance pattern of Arctic amphipods will heavily impact marine food webs with implications up and down the food chain.
