Contributor notes

Contributor Terry Hitchings is an honorary research fellow in Invertebrate Zoology at the Canterbury Museum, Christchurch. His particular responsibilities include the curation and enhancement of the Ephemeroptera collection and its associated database. Particular interests include the distribution, taxonomy, and phylogeny of New Zealand mayflies.

He paewai rangahau utukore a Terry Hitchings i raro i te maru o te Mātai Kararehe Tuarā Kore, i te Whare Taonga o Waitaha, Ōtautahi. Ko ana kawenga whāiti, ko te tiaki, ko te whakapai ake i te kohinga Ephemeroptera me te pātengi raraunga e pā ana ki te kohinga. Ko ētahi o ngā kaupapa e arohia nuitia ana e ia, ko te tohanga, te whakarōpūtanga me te kunenga mai o ngā rangitahi o Aotearoa.

Contributor Arnold Staniczek studied biology and paleontology at the universities of Tūbingen, Germany, and Helsinki, Finland. He became involved with mayflies during his diploma thesis on the postembryonal development of Baetis rhodani (Ephemeroptera: Baetidae). Spending several months in New Zealand in 1994, Arnold became focused on the local mayfly fauna. In 2001 he graduated from Tūbingen University, where his Ph.D. work on the larval head morphology of the New Zealand mayfly Oniscigaster wakefieldi and the position of Ephemeroptera in the phylogenetic system of insects was supported by a research fellowship of the Federal State of Baden-Wūrttemberg, Germany. Arnold joined the Natural History Museum of Stuttgart, Germany, in 2002, with responsibility for the research on fossil and extant mayflies.

Ko te mātauranga koiora me te mātauranga mātātoka ngā kaupapa ako a Arnold Staniczek, i ngā whare wānanga o Tūbingen, i Tiamana, me Helsinki, i Hinerangi. Nōna e mahi ana i tana tuhinga roa pōkairua e pā ana ki te whanake haere o te Baetis rhodani (Ephemeroptera: Baetidae) i muri i te kikiringa, ka tīmata tana aro nui ki ngā rangitahi. I Aotearoa ia mō ētahi marama maha i te tau 1994, ā, koirā te pūtakenga o tana arotahi ki ngā rangitahi o tēnei whenua. Ka whakawhiwhia ia ki tana Tākutatanga i te 2001, i te Whare Wānanga o Tūbingen. Ko te kaupapa o tana Tākutatanga, ko te hanga o te ūpoko o te torongū o te Oniscigaster wakefieldi (he rangitahi nō Aotearoa) me te tūranga o te Ephemeroptera i roto i te kunenga mai o ngā aitanga pepeke, ā, i tērā wā i whakawhiwhia ia ki tētahi tūranga paewai rangahau e te Rohe Whānui o Baden-Wūrttemberg, i Tiamana. Nō te tau 2002 ka whiwhi tūranga ia i te Whare Taonga mō te Ao Tūroa i Stuttgart, Tiamana. I reira ka riro māna e whakahaere ngā rangahautanga e pā ana ki ngā rangitahi mātātoka me ngā rangitahi e ora tonu ana. Ko ētahi tino kaupapa āna, ko te hanga o te tinana, te whakapapa me te kunenga mai o ngā Ephemeroptera.
