Family Coccinellidae (Ladybird Beetles) in Palestine خنافس الدعسوقت في فلسطين By: Prof. Dr. Sc. Norman Ali Bassam Ali Taher Khalaf- Sakerfalke von Jaffa 7-Spot Ladybird (Coccinella septempunctata) from Palestine. Photo by Zachi Evenor. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:7-Spotted-Ladybird- Wiki-Zachi-Evenor-0119.jpg The Beetles comprise an order of insects characterized by complete metamorphosis (including a pupal stage between the larval and adult stages), biting-chewing mouth parts, and two pairs of wings, of which the hind pair are membranous and used for flight and the front pair (elytra) are sturdy and used for protection. The approximately 350,000 known species of beetles in the world comprise the largest animal group in existence. Only 1% of this number, about 3,500 species, are found in Palestine. These species represent a wide variety of families, shapes, colours 47
and modes of life. Many species are harmful to crops and stored products, including food, while others are beneficial to mankind through preying on agricultural pests or by recycling waste products. Due to the hardness of their bodies and their tremendous resistance, variety of shapes, range of size (from 1-160 mm) and amazing colours, the beetles are a favourite group for many amateur entomologists and collectors (Boeliem, 2008). As a result of their habitat destruction, several species in Palestine have become extinct, such as some of the large water beetles; while others are endangered. The Coccinellidae are a family of small beetles, ranging from 1 to 10 mm (0.04 to 0.4 inches). They are commonly yellow, orange, or scarlet with small black spots on their wing covers, with black legs, heads and antennae. Such colour patterns vary greatly, however; for example, a minority of species, such as Vibidia duodecimguttata, a twelve-spotted species, have whitish spots on a brown background. Coccinellids are found worldwide, with over 5,000 species described (Wikipedia). About 70 species of ladybird beetles (Coccinellidae) are known in Palestine, and many of them help to regulate pest populations. Both in Palestine and abroad, some of the species are employed for biological control of pests. At the end of spring the beetles migrate to mountain tops, such as Mount Hermon (Jabal Al Shaykh) and Mount Meron (Jabal Al Jarmaq), where they mass together. At the beginning of the following spring they migrate back to the low-lying areas - a phenomenon that has not yet been fully studied (Boeliem, 2008). Coccinellidae are known colloquially as ladybirds (in Britain, Ireland and the Commonwealth), ladybugs (in North America) or lady cows, among other names. When they need to use a common name, entomologists widely prefer the names ladybird beetles or lady beetles as these insects are not true bugs (Wikipedia). 48
