Aculeate excel checklist + taxon designations...

Submitted by Ben hargreaves on

I'm looking to update the Lancashire checklist for aculeates. I probably have most of the recorded sps for the two Vice Counties but could do with an excel checklist - similar to the BWARS site (national) checklist document - which has an additional column or addition of the cited taxon authority in brackets / italics for each sps (       ).

Anyone know if such a thing exists?...Before I start typing them out.

 

Cheers, Ben Hargreaves.

Possible affect of Harlequin Ladybirds on Ants and Wasps

Submitted by AllotmentPete on

Last year I noted a change in local ant and wasp populations in my garden and nearby allotment.

For the last seven or eight years the plum trees in both areas have been heavily infested by aphids.   These were well attended by the usual black ants.   As the season developed wasps also clearly had a great interest in the trees.   So much so that I had to be wary when doing any light pruning.
