COBIMFO (Congo Basin Integrated monitoring for Carbon Mitigation and Biodiversity – a BELSPO financed programme) In other words: the relationship between the insect diversity to the various types of forest in the region of Yangambi: Young and secondary forest versus primary forest
Insects as indicators xylophagous Termites (Isoptera) predators - herbivores: ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) pollinators - bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Apidae) fungivores - fungus gnaths (Diptera: Mycetophilidae) detritivores - dung flies (Diptera: Sepsidae) Herbivores: giant silk moths (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) predators - Empidoid flies (Diptera: Hybotidae, Empididae, Dolichopodidae)
New Tachydromiinae (Diptera: Empidoidea, Hybotidae) from different types of forests near Yangambi New Tachydromiinae (Diptera: Empidoidea, Hybotidae) from different types of forests near Yangambi Belgian Journal of Entomology 18: 1-34. Tachydromiinae or ‘Fast running flies’ were collected in June 2012 in a gradient of forests types ranging from garden patches, bamboo, over young forest to mixed primary and monodominant (Gilbertiodendron) forest. Keys have been improved to contain all 44 species known from the region around Yangambi. Most species have been barcoded for COI.
