- W108242868 abstract "The present report is based upon two weeks of specialized collecting by the author, mostly on Ine Island, Arno Atoll, Marshall Islands. Casual collecting by the author on Kwajalein and Majuro, en route, added two species to the list and two more were found on a brief visit to Tagelib, across the lagoon from Ine on Arno Atoll. The Arno collect ing was part of a general study of the ecology of a coral atoll which was undertaken at the request of the Office of Naval Research and adminis tered by the National Research Council through its Pacific Science Board. The results of this study of the heteropterous Hemiptera conform to expectations in that, due to concentrated collecting, more species were found than had previously been reported from any coral atoll. Also, as was expected, the Marshall Islands collections indicate by their very nature which of the Pacific Island Heteroptera are widespread. For ex ample, it now appears that seven species which had previously been de scribed only from Guam, Tahiti, Hawaii or the Philippines, occur in the Marshalls and presumably will be found elsewhere in the course of future collecting. Most surprising were the marine water studies, Halobates mariannarum Esaki and Halovelia marianarum Usinger, both of which were thought to be localized in the Marianas, but now must be recognized, with only slight variation in the structure of the male genital plate of the Halobates, from the Marshalls. On Arno, as on Guam, Halobates mariannarum was a normal inhabitant of protected coves, whereas micans Eschscholtz was found only when strong winds blew it up on the beach. This is similar to the behavior of sericeus Eschscholtz in Hawaiian waters, both of these species being normal inhabitants of the open ocean. Two species of Nysins were recently recorded for the first time from the Marshalls (Usinger, Proc. Haw. Ent. Soc, 13:447, 1949). At that time it was assumed that these were war-time immigrants, pulchellus being known previously only from Guam and picipes only from Wake. Now it appears that pulchellus is found only on the main airport islands, e.g. Kwajalein, Majuro and Eniwetok Island. N. picipes, on the other hand, was found exclusively on Arno and was taken by Townes and Oakley (Usinger, loc. cit.) on Engebi, Aomon and Japtan Islands in Eniwetok Atoll. The cor rect interpretation of these facts must await further collecting, though the conclusion seems justified that ATysius pulchellus is the more recent" @default.
