UC Publications in Entomology
The University of California Publications in Entomology is a monographic series devoted to the biology of insects and other terrestrial arthropods. The series has traditionally emphasized insect systematics, but monographs on biogeography, evolution, population biology, behavioral ecology and comparative biology are also welcomed.
Submission Guidelines: All submissions should be directed to the chair of the series editorial board. Note that if a manuscript is approved for publication, the author will need to provide digital files suitable for printing.

There are 10 publications in this collection, published between 2004 and 2014.
Kimsey, Lynn S.: California Cuckoo Wasps in the Family Chrysididae (Hymenoptera), 2014
Abstract: Species and genera of the wasp family Chrysididae in California are reviewed and their California and overall distributions mapped. In addition, keys to California genera and species, and discussions of these species are given. Three...
Magnacca, Karl N.; O'Grady, Patrick M: Revision of the Modified Mouthparts Species Group of Hawaiian Drosophila (Diptera: Drosophilidae): The Ceratostoma, Freycinetiae, Semifuscata, and Setiger Subgroups, and Unplaced Species, 2014
Abstract: The modified mouthparts group is perhaps the largest of the four major Hawaiian Drosophila clades, yet has received relatively little taxonomic attention during the past 40 years. This study reviews unplaced species and the...
Triapitsyn, Serguei Vladimirovich; Kim, Jung-Wook: An Annotated Catalog of the Type Material of Aphytis (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) in the Entomology Research Museum, University of California at Riverside, 2014
Abstract: The catalog provides information on the type material of 75 valid species of the genus Aphytis Howard (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) in the collection of the Entomology Research Museum, University of California, Riverside. 7,390 specimens were...
Wild, Alexander L.: Taxonomic Revision of the Ant Genus Linepithema (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), 2014
Abstract: The primarily Neotropical dolichoderine ant genus Linepithema is revised at the species level for the first time. Morphological and biogeographic data support the recognition of 19 species. The following taxonomic scheme is proposed: L. angulatum...
Sarnat, Eli M.; Economo, Evan P.: The Ants of Fiji, 2012
Abstract: The ant fauna of the Fijian archipelago is a diverse assemblage of endemic radiations, pan-Pacific species, and exotics introduced from around the world. Here we provide a taxonomic synopsis of the entire Fijian ant fauna...
Owen, Albert K.: Revision of Ufens Girault, 1911 (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae), 2011
Gates, Michael William: Species Revision and Generic Systematics of World Rileyinae (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae), 2008
Abstract: The subfamily Rileyinae (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) is redefined to contain 6 genera and 69 species for which keys are provided. Two morphological data sets, analyzed via maximum parsimony with PAUP*, yield hypotheses on the placement of...
Hauer, Frederick Richard; Stanford, Jack Arthur; Newell, Robert Lee: International Advances in the Ecology, Zoogeography and Systematics of Mayflies and Stoneflies, 2008
Abstract: The purpose of this volume is to encourage and facilitate focused research and provide a forum for scholarly exchange about the status of Mayfly and Stonefly science. Professor John Brittain, whose research is focused on...
Hsu, Yu-Feng; Powell, Jerry A.: Phylogenetic Relationships within Heliodinidae and Systematics of Moths Formerly Assigned to Heliodines Stainton (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutoidea), 2004
Abstract: Heliodinidae traditionally have been characterized on the basis of forewing venation, color and scaling, and perch behavior, but none of these attributes defines monophyly. We identify four uniquely derived autapomorphies for the family: (1) M...
Lattke, John E.: A Taxonomic Revision and Phylogenetic Analysis of the Ant Genus Gnamptogenys Roger in Southeast Asia and Australasia (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Ponerinae), 2004
Abstract: A taxonomic revision of the genus Gnamptogenys Roger in Southeast Asia and Australasia, based on the workers, recognizes forty nine species, twenty five of which are new, as follows: G. albiclava (Mann), G. aterrima (Mann),...
