Description

Aculeata bees and wasps（Chrysidoidea, Vespoidea, and Apoidea）play important roles in ecosystem functions such as pollination, food web control, and natural enemy control. Information on their distribution is needed to understand the changes in Aculeata fauna, especially due to climatic and environmental changes. The Aculeata fauna of Kyushu is poorly surveyed, and recorded taxa are biased even in Kagoshima Prefecture, where surveys have been relatively conducted well. In this study, we provided the occurrence data of Aculeata in the Takakuma Experimental Forest, Kagoshima University, and the Osumi National Forest. We collected Aculeata in different seasons using yellow pan traps and identified a total of 494 individuals belonging to 67 species, 5 of which were recorded from Kyushu for the first time. Species that appear to be unique to lowland broad-leaved forests were obtained（e. g. Epyris shohki）．Surveys at these lowland forests could contribute to a better understanding of the Aculeata fauna of Kyushu.
