中国科技论文在线 Catalogue of Eriophyoid Mites from Hengduan 中国科技论文在线 http://www.paper.edu.cn Catalogue of Eriophyoid mites from Hengduan Mountains region (Acari: Eriophyoidea)# 5 HAN Xiao, XUE Xiaofeng, HONG Xiaoyue** (Department of Entomology, Nanjing Agricultural University, Jiangsu Nanjing 210095) Abstract: In this paper, 66 species belonging to Phytoptidae, Eriophyidae and Diptilomiopidae are provided (Phytoptidae-5, Eriophyidae-57, Diptilomiopidae-4). This compilation also contains the host name, relation to host and the complete geographical distribution for each species in the world. 10 Key words: Trombidiformes; Prostigmata; plant feeding; taxonomy; morphology 0 Introduction The Eriophyoidea includes three families: Phytoptidae, Eriophyidae and Diptilomiopidae. During 2009 and 2013, field surveys were conducted in Hengduan Mountains. The most abundant 15 family Eriophyidae, accounts for about 86% of all eriophyoid mites. The other two families, Phytoptidae and Diptilomiopidae represent 5 and 4 species respectively. Eriophyoid mites are plant feeding mites, commonly known as gall, bud, blister, and rust mites in reference to their feeding injuries to plant tissues. Despite their names, the vast majority cause no, or negligible, injury to their host (Lindquist, 1996). This catalogue contains the host name, 20 relation to host and the complete geographical distribution for each species in the world. 1 Materials and methods In the field, eriophyoid mites were collected from plants with the aid of hand-lens (30×). Eriophyoids, together with their host plants, were placed in vials and stored in 75% ethanol. Each vial was marked with the following collection data: specimen number, date, host plant species 25 name, colour of living mites, sample location, collector name and relationship of mite to the host plant. Collection data were also recorded in a notebook and examples of host plant parts were kept in a plant specimen folder in a dry environment for further identification and reference. The morphological terminology follows Lindquist (1996) and the generic classification was made according to Amrine et al. (2003). The liquid contents were pooled into a cavity dish from 30 the vials, then mite specimens were picked up using a fine pin and slide mounted using Keifer’s Booster and modified Berlese medium (Amrine & Manson, 1996). Specimens were examined with the aid of a Zeiss A2 (Germany) research microscope equipped with phase contrast (A-plan phase objectives: ×10/0.25, ×20/0.45; EC plan-NEOFLUAR phase objectives: ×40/0.75; ×100/1.3 oil immersion) and schematic drawings were made. Images were taken with the same microscope 35 (under 100× oil immersion with 10× eyepieces) using an Axio Cam MRc (Carl Zeiss) system, connected to a computer and using Axiovision image analysis software. All type specimens are deposited as slide mounted specimens in the Arthropod/Mite Collection of the Department of Entomology, Nanjing Agricultural University (NJAU), Jiangsu Province, China. 40 Taxonomy I Family Phytoptidae Murray, 1877 Foundations: National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 31172132) , Specialized Research Fund for the Doctoral Program of Higher Education (SRFDP) from the Ministry of Education of China (No. 20100097110012) Brief author introduction:韩笑(1987-),女,博士,瘿螨系统分类与进化 Correspondance author: 洪晓月(1964-),男,教授,昆虫分子生态与进化.

  • Taxonomic Overview of Ligustrum (Oleaceae) Naturalizaed in North America North of Mexico
    Phytologia (December 2009) 91(3) 467 TAXONOMIC OVERVIEW OF LIGUSTRUM (OLEACEAE) NATURALIZAED IN NORTH AMERICA NORTH OF MEXICO Guy L. Nesom 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, TX 76109, USA www.guynesom.com ABSTRACT A key, morphological descriptions, and basic synonymy are provided for the eight species of Ligustrum known to be naturalized in North America north of Mexico: L. japonicum, L. lucidum, L. obtusifolium (including L. amurense), L. ovalifolium, L. quihoui, L. sinense, L. tschonoskii, and L. vulgare. Identifications have been inconsistent particularly between L. sinense and L. vulgare and between L. japonicum and L. lucidum. The occurrence of L. quihoui outside of cultivation in Arkansas, Mississippi, and Oklahoma is documented. Phytologia 91(3): 467-482 (December, 2009). KEY WORDS: Ligustrum, Oleaceae, North America, naturalized, taxonomy The lustrous, mostly evergreen leaves and masses of white, fragrant flowers make privets popular for landscaping and hedges. Many of the species, however, have become naturalized in the USA and Canada and already have proved to be destructive colonizers, especially in the Southeast. Among the naturalized species, European privet (Ligustrum vulgare) is native to Europe and northern Africa; all the rest are native to Asia, mainly China, Japan, and Korea. Many new species and varieties of Ligustrum have been described since overviews of Koehne (1904), Lingelsheim (1920), and Mansfield (1924). The genus in eastern Asia has recently been studied by Chang & Miao (1986), and Qin (2009) has provided a taxonomic overview of the whole genus that recognizes 37 species - divided into five sections based primarily on fruit and seed morphology. In Qin’s arrangement, among the North American species, sect.

  • Ligustrum Lucidum 'Tricolor' 'Tricolor' Glossy Privet
    Fact Sheet ST-356 November 1993 Ligustrum lucidum ‘Tricolor’ ‘Tricolor’ Glossy Privet1 Edward F. Gilman and Dennis G. Watson2 INTRODUCTION This fast-growing evergreen tree, 25 to 35 feet in height (can grow larger) with a 25 to 35-foot spread, has a dense canopy of bending branches composed of large, four to six-inch-long, glossy green leaves with white edges (Fig. 1). Young leaves emerge pink. Terminal, 6 to 10-inch-long, eye-catching panicles of small, white, malodorous flowers are produced in late spring in the south and summer in the north. These blooms are followed in fall by large, showy clusters of small purple berries. The berries are popular with birds and the dispersed seeds germinate in the landscape and could become somewhat of a nuisance. Care must be taken in the location of this multitrunked tree since the profuse berry production can create a litter problem on hard surfaces. The fallen berries may stain car paint, walks, and patios. Figure 1. Mature ‘Tricolor’ Glossy Privet.

  • Identification and Control of Invasive Privets (Ligustrum Spp.) in the Middle Southern United States
    Invasive Plant Science and Management 2010 3:482–488 Notes and Commentary Identification and Control of Invasive Privets (Ligustrum spp.) in the Middle Southern United States Victor Maddox, John Byrd, Jr., and Brett Serviss* The identification of privet in the middle southern United States can be difficult. Because most introduced species of privet can be invasive, and recent mapping projects seek location and species population data, proper identification is important. Without proper identification of privet species, data on species distributions and other pertinent information regarding invasiveness could lead to improper conclusions. Currently, information on privet identification is scattered throughout a number of reference materials. The purpose of this publication is to assist with the proper identification of escaped privet species, and suggest management options. Nomenclature: Fosamine ammonium; glyphosate; hexazinone; imazapyr; metsulfuron; triclopyr; 2,4-D; 2,4-DP; Amur privet, Ligustrum obtusifolium Sieb. & Zucc. var. suave (Kitagawa) Kitagawa (Syn.
