        This study is based on survey on soil inhabiting Laelapidae that was carried out in year 2015 in different habitats of Shahrood region. In this study, 19 species belonging 10 genera and 3 subfamilies were collected and identified and determine some characteristics of biodiversity. According to results of Laelaspisella berlesi (45) was the most abundant and Gaeolaelaps kargi, Gaeolaelaps angusta and Pseudoparasitus hajiganbari (0/46) were the least abundant. The highest Margalef index and Shannon-Wiener’s diversity index were calculated for forest and Simpson index were calculated for Bastam.   Manuscript profile

        2 - Taxonomic study of the soil laelapid mites (Acari: Mesostigmata) in different habitats of Shahrood region-Iran

        Laelapidae is a large and cosmopolitan family comprises a multitude of morphologically and behaviorally diverse mites that are free-living predators that inhabit soil-litter habitats or associated with arthropods, mammals, or birds. This study is based on survey on soil More
        Laelapidae is a large and cosmopolitan family comprises a multitude of morphologically and behaviorally diverse mites that are free-living predators that inhabit soil-litter habitats or associated with arthropods, mammals, or birds. This study is based on survey on soil inhabiting Laelapidae that was carried in 2015 from different habitats of Shahrood region. Soils and litter were collected then transferred to laboratory and put in Berlese-Tullgren funnel. Mites were extracted using it. Specimens were preserved in 75% ethanol and cleared in Lactic acid. Mites were then directly mounted into Faure medium on microscopic slides. Figures were capture and measurements were calculated using a CH2 Olympus microscope. In this study, 19 species belonging 10 genera and three subfamilies were collected and identified, all species considered as new records for the mite’s fauna of Semnan Province. Identified species are as follows: Subfamily Hypoaspidinae: Cosmolaelaps rectangularis (Sheals, 1926); Cosmolaelaps vacua (Michael, 1891); Cosmolaelaps lutegiensis (Shcherbak, 1971); Gaeolaelaps aculieifer (Canestrini, 1884); Gaeolaelaps angusta (Karg, 1965); Gaeolaelaps kargi (Costa, 1968); Gaeolaelaps nolli (Karg, 1962); Gaeolaelaps queenslandicus (Womersley, 1956); Euandrolaelaps karaawaiewi (Berlese 1903); Euandrolaelaps sardoa (Berles, 1911); Pseudoparasitus dentatus (Halbert, 1920); Pseudoparasitus hajiganbari Kazemi, 2014; Ololaelaps gamagarensis (Jordaan & Loots, 1987); Subfamily Melittiphidinae: Laelaspis pennatus (Joharchi & Halliday, 2012); Laelaspis dariusi Joharchi & Jalaeian, 2012; Laelaspisella berlesi; Joharchi, 2016 Gymnolaelaps myrmophilus (Michael, 1891);. Subfamily Laelapinae: Haemolaelaps shealsi (Costa, 1968); Haemolaelaps casalis (Berlese, 1887).   Manuscript profile

        3 - Investigation of presence, distribution, and adult insects flight period of some species of clearwing moths Synanthedon spp. (Lep.: Sesiidae) using pherpmone traps in Sanandaj city

        The family of Sesiidae includes about 1400 species in 150 genera. The larvae of these insects feed on the cambium of the tree and dry the tree. Using pheromone trap is one of the suitable methods for monitoring the pest in orchards. Therefore, in this study, the presenc More
        The family of Sesiidae includes about 1400 species in 150 genera. The larvae of these insects feed on the cambium of the tree and dry the tree. Using pheromone trap is one of the suitable methods for monitoring the pest in orchards. Therefore, in this study, the presence and distribution of clearwing moth were examined in the province, in 7 locations with an average distance of 20 km from each other in the city of Sanandaj using 6 pheromone traps in each region. Also in order to study the activity of the adult insects of different species of the mentioned insects in every 3 garden areas 6 traps (pheromone capsule containing two species Synanthedon myopaeformis (Borkhausen) (Lep.: Sesiidae) and Synanthedon tipuliformis (Clerck) (Lep.: Sesiidae)) were deployed that they were continuously (every 3 days) visited. The results showed that Synanthedon tabaniformis (Rott.) (Lep.: Sesiidae) species is present in all regions of trapping and the highest density of this pest is related to Qeshlagh dam garden (43 moths per  trap) (p< 0.05) and the S. tipuliformis species was observed in none of the trapping areas; also species of S. myopaeformis was observed in 3 regions at low concentrations. Studying the emergence period of S. tabaniformis adult insects showed that the first moths were trapped in the region of Qeshlagh dam garden in 2014/6/6, in the region of Salawat Abad in 2014/6/10, and in the region of Grize in 2014/6/13. The peak of the flight was observed in the two regions of Qeshlagh dam garden and Grize in 2014/6/23 and in the region of Salawat Abad in 2014/6/20. Finally, the last moths were trapped in the region of Grize in 2014/7/25, in the region of Salawat Abad in 2014/7/18 and in the region of Qeshlagh dam garden in 2014/7/21. Manuscript profile
