- During archaeological excavations on the site of the Norse farm at Gården under Sandet (GUS), in Ameralik Fjord, south-west Greenland, the opportunity was taken to sample the modern ground-living insect fauna by pitfall trapping from a range of natural habitats for comparison with fossil assemblages from the medieval farm and its midden. Two species, the predatory bug Nabis flavomarginatus Scholtz, 1847 and small ladybird Nephus redtenbacheri Mulsant, 1846 are recorded for the first time in this part of Greenland, although there are earlier records from the sediments associated with medieval farms in the region and both have been regarded as Norse introductions. The minute staphylinid Mycetoporus nigrans Mäklin, 1853, added to the Greenland list from this material by Peter Hammond (in Buckland et al. 1998), was found to be common in most natural habitats around GUS. Grids of eight traps, four at ground level and four on posts, were set out in six localities defined by their vegetational characteristics and emptied three times over the month-long sampling period. The cicadellid Psammotettix lividellus (Zetterstedt, 1840) appeared in all ground traps being particularly abundant on the dwarf birch and sedge dominated floodplain, to which the polyphagous mirid bug Chlamydatus pullus (Reuter, 1870) appears confined.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The genus Platyceraphron Kieffer, 1906 with the species P. muscidarum Kieffer, 1906 is reported as new to Norway, caught in traps at two different locations. An old Swedish record which seems to have been forgotten is reviewed and one recent Swedish record added. No records are known from Finland and Denmark. Platyceraphron are remarkably dorsoventrally flattened wasps, and have been reported as parasitoids of subcorticeous flies, mainly Lonchaeidae.

Records of ticks (Acari, Ixodidae) from the Faroe Islands
- 2007
-
Ingår i: Norwegian Journal of Entomology. - 1501-8415 .- 1894-0692. ; 54:1, s. 11-15

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- New data are given on the tick fauna of The Faroe Islands. So far, three species of Ixodes arerecorded from the islands. I. uriae from Fratercula arctica, Uria algae and Rattus norvegicus;I. caledonicus from Fulmarus glacialis; and I. ricinus from Homo sapiens, Felis catus, Canisfamiliaris, Phylloscopus collybita and Oenanthe oenanthe. The possible regular presenceof I. ricinus on the archipelago is likely to increase the risk for transmission of tick-bornezoonotic pathogens, including Borrelia garinii, to humans.

A new species of Cordyla Meigen from Norway (Diptera: Mycetophilidae)
- 2004
-
Ingår i: Norwegian Journal of Entomology. - 1501-8415. ; 51, s. 137-143
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A new species of fungus gnats in the genus Cordyla Meigen, 1803, C. bomloensis sp. n., is described based on adult material from southwestern Norway. Both the male and the female are described, photographed and their terminalia figured. The new species belongs in the C.fusca-group. It seems to be most closely allied to C. brevicornis (Staeger, 1840) and C. pusilla Edwards, 1925 from which it is differing prevalently by structures of the male and female terminalia. Its seemingly isolated distribution in southwestern Norway is briefly commented on.

Fungus gnats (Diptera: Bolitophilidae, Diadocidiidae, Ditomyiidae, Keroplatidae and Mycetophilidae) from Møre og Romsdal.
- 2007
-
Ingår i: Norwegian Journal of Entomology. - 1501-8415. ; 54:2, s. 117-141
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Faunistic data on fungus gnats from the county of Møre og Romsdal in Norway are presented and all species known from the county are summarized in a checklist. Treatment of some 23000 specimens, collected with one Malaise trap and one window trap for a whole year each, resulted in the identifi cation of 315 species from a single site at Jordalsgrend, Sunndal municipality. Material from three other localities in Møre og Romsdal and a few previously published records adds 42 species, bringing the total up to 357 species belonging to the families Bolitophilidae (11), Diadocidiidae (6), Ditomyiidae (2), Keroplatidae (11) and Mycetophilidae (327). Ten of the species are considered to be new to science and three species represented with single females could not be identifi ed to species level. Records of 57 species are published for the fi rst time from Norway, including three species that have been listed from Norway without any published records. The 34 species included in the Norwegian 2006 Red Data List are commented on. The high species diversity found at Jordalsgrend reveals a new picture when compared with other surveys in the Nordic region, and may have implications for future forest management, as boreal-oceanic, old-growth, deciduous forests are underrepresented in most conservation plans.

A new cryptic Trypophloeus Fairmaire, 1864 species in Northern Fennoscandia (Coleoptera, Curculionidae) revealed by DNA analyses
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Norwegian Journal of Entomology. - 1501-8415. ; 68, s. 44-66
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Specimens of the genus Trypophloeus Fairmaire, 1864 collected in Fennoscandia from Salixmyrsinifolia Salisb. and S. glauca L. were studied both morphologically as well as with phylogeneticanalyses based on DNA sequences of the COI and 28S rDNA. Based on the results a new speciesis described and named Trypophloeus borealis sp. n. Scandinavian specimens of this new specieswere previously misidentified as Trypophloeus dejevi Stark, 1936. The phylogenetic and sequencedivergence analyses based on these gene regions show that Trypophloeus nitidus Swaine, 1912, inNorth America is the closest related species. Information on the biology and known distribution isincluded. The new species is a member of the Trypophloeus alni (Lindemann, 1875) species-group.The T. alni species-group is well demarcated and supported by the DNA results. The rest of the speciesin the genus Trypophloeus are proposed to be divided into three other species groups.A classic taxonomic study on the species in the Trypophloeus alni species-group was also carriedout. In general, the morphology of the genus gives a poor basis for taxonomy and morphologicalidentification due to small differences and overlapping characters between the species. Still, thecharacters can give some basis for identification when a large material is examined. However, theoverlap of morphological characters makes the identification uncertain. It should be interpreted as anindication more than an exact identification, even when combined with geographical, biological andhost tree information. The conclusion is that T. borealis sp. n. and T. nitidus are morphologically verysimilar with overlapping characters and are morphological sibling species. Biometric and statisticalstudies might bring more information on morphological differences.The presented study caused some nomenclatorial changes. Trypophloeus niger Stark, 1936 syn.n. is a synonym of Trypophloeus dejevi. The type of Trypophloeus striatulus (Mannerheim, 1853)was considered lost, but has been found in the collection of the Zoological Institute in St. Petersburg,Russia. Many authors erroneously considered the species to belong to the genus Trypophloeus.However, studies of the type show that it actually belongs to the genus Cryphalus Erichson, 1836.Cryphalus striatulus Mannerheim, 1853 has priority, and the name is resurrected and Cryphalusruficollis Hopkins, 1915 syn. n. is thus a new junior synonym. Consequently, Trypophloeus striatulus(Mannerheim, 1853) is not a valid name and Trypophloeus nitidus Swaine, 1912 res. n. is the validname.Information on the biology and known distribution of T. borealis sp. n. is included. Lectotypefor Cryphalus alni Lindemann, 1875 (now called Trypophloeus alni) is selected from Lindemann’sspecimens preserved in Natural History Museum in Vienna and is designated here.

Corrections and comments to the Norwegian part of the Palaearctic list of bark beetles (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Scolytinae)
- 2014

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Pityogenes irkutensis irkutensis Eggers, 1910, Trypophloeus dejevi (Stark, 1936), Carphoborus cholodkovskyi Spessivtsev, 1916 and Cyclorhipidion bodoanus (Reitter, 1913) are added to the Norwegian part of the Palaearctic list. Ips amitinus (Eichhoff, 1872) should be listed as intercepted to Norway, since it is recorded in imported timber but not documented as established in Norway. Seven species are deleted from the Norwegian part of the Palaearctic list of bark beetles: Hylastes ater (Paykull, 1800), Hylurgus ligniperda (Fabricius, 1787), Phloeotribus rhododactylus (Marsham, 1802), Ernoporicus fagi (Fabricius, 1798), Pityogenes saalasi Eggers, 1914, Scolytus mali (Bechstein & Scharfenberg, 1805) and Scolytus multistriatus (Marsham, 1802). Their faunistic history in Norway is presented, which shows that they are listed as Norwegian due to historically inherited mistakes. Scolytus triarmatus (Eggers, 1912) and Orthotomicus longicollis (Gyllenhal, 1827) are known from one single specimen respectively. Their faunistic history in Norway is presented and discussed. It is an unanswered question if these species have populations in Norway. Scolytus scolytus (Fabricius, 1775) is not listed as Norwegian in the Palaearctic catalogue. However, it is a part of the historical confusion and was earlier mentioned as recorded in Norway. The faunistic history is presented and discussed together with S. triarmatus. Trypophloeus Fairmaire, 1864 is a taxonomic and nomenclatorial problematic genus, which is strongly in need of a modern revision. We have included a presentation of some of the problems and a discussion related to the genus. The number of bark beetles species documented in Norway may be changed due to how the species are defined and the nomenclature chosen. The conclusion of the presented work is that the number of established, outdoor-living bark beetle species documented from Norway is 71. Ips amitinus (Eichhoff, 1872) is not included in this number since it is not documented as established in Norway.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The first records in Norway of Pityogenes saalasi Eggers, 1914 are presented from Lierne, in Nord-Trøndelag County. Observations on the biology and the distribution are presented and discussed. Host trees are slow-growing and old Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) H. Karst.). The records were made in trunks less than 8 cm in diameter on dead threes with rather smooth bark. In addition, branches as small as one cm is utilized. P. saalasi has a clear northern distribution in Fennoscandia. The record of P. saalasi increases the number of documented bark beetles (Curculionidae, Scolytinae) in Norway to 72 species.

-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Xyleborinus attenuatus (Blandford, 1894) is for the first time recorded in Norway. This record represents bark beetle species number 73, documented as established outdoor in Norway. In addition, new data on the species in Sweden is presented. Included is also a short review of the invasive history of X. attenuatus in Europe and North America. Information of the biology of X. attenuatus is summarized and the possible importance as a pest in Norway is discussed. Identification keys for separating X. attenuatus and X. saxesenii (Ratzeburg, 1837) are included for both males and females.

A review of the European species of the genus Monochamus Dejean, 1821 (Coleptera: Cerambycidae, Lamiinae, Monochamini) with a description of the genitalia characters
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Norwegian Journal of Entomology. - 1501-8415. ; 60, s. 11-38
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The male and female genitalia characters of the European species of Monochamus Dejean, 1821, are described and compared in detail for the first time. The sclerites inside the median phallomer (internal sac) of M. sutor (Linnaeus, 1758) and M. galloprovincialis (Olivier, 1795) differ from those of all other examined species, and appear to be the best characters to separate M. sutor from M. galloprovincialis. There are no differences between the male or female genitalia characters of M. sartor (Fabricius, 1787) and M. urussovi (Fischer von Waldheim, 1805). Thus, M. urussovi is regarded as a subspecies of M. sartor: M. sartor urussovi nov. stat. The present results also support that the previously considered subspecies M. galloprovincialis pistor (Germar, 1818) is a true junior synonym of M. galloprovincialis galloprovincialis. No sclerites occur inside the internal sac of M. saltuarius (Gebler, 1830). The internal sac of M. sartor sartor (Fabricius, 1787), M. sartor urussovi and M. impluviatus impluviatus (Motschulsky, 1859) are distinctly different from the other European species of Monochamus: there is an elongated tube (terminal segment) inside the internal sac containing two very small and weakly sclerotized plates in M. sartor sartor and M. sartor urussovi and a larger sclerite in M. impluviatus impluviatus. A key to the European species and subspecies of Monochamus, incorporating male genitalia characters, is provided.

Additions to the fauna of Norwegian fungus gnats (Diptera, Mycetophilidae).
- 2008
-
Ingår i: Norwegian Journal of Entomology. - 1501-8415. ; 55:1, s. 31-41
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Fiftythree species are reported new to Norway, and their distribution and biology are commented on. Among the new Norwegian species, Anatella alpina Plassmann, 1977 and Trichonta tristis (Strobl, 1898) are also new to the Nordic region. The total number of species of Mycetophilidae in Norway is thus increased to 575. The majority of the species added forms an extension of the boreal taiga fauna into Norway, including nine more or less mountainous species, while only three species display a southern nemoral to boreonemoral distribution.
