E. McPherson2 ABSTRACT A comparative study was conducted of the field life histories of Euschis tus servus and E. varialarius in southern Illinois, their life cycles under con trolled laboratory conditions, and their immature stages. The results indicate that E. servus is bivoltine and E. variolarius is univol tine. Adults of both species emerged from overwintering sites during early April, began feeding and copulating on leaves of common mullein (Verbascum thapsus) and surrounding vegetation, and reproduced shortly thereafter. -

Packauskas1 Abstract Forty eight species of Pentatomidae are listed as occurring in the state of Kansas, nine of these are new state records. A key to all species known from the state of Kansas is given, along with some notes on new state records. ____________________ The family Pentatomidae, comprised of mainly phytophagous and a few predaceous species, is one of the largest families of Heteroptera. Some of the phytophagous species have a wide host range and this ability may make them the most economically important family among the Heteroptera (Panizzi et al. 2000). As a group, they have been found feeding on cotton, nuts, fruits, veg- etables, legumes, and grain crops (McPherson 1982, McPherson and McPherson 2000, Panizzi et al 2000). -

EENY-523 A Stink Bug Euschistus quadrator Rolston (Insecta: Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)1 Sara A. Brennan, Joseph Eger, and Oscar E. Liburd2 Introduction in the membranous area of the hemelytra, a characteristic present in other Euschistus species. Euschistus quadrator Rolston was described in 1974, with specimens from Mexico, Texas, and Louisiana. Euschistus quadrator was not found in Florida until 1992. It has since spread throughout the state as well as becoming an agricultural pest of many fruit, vegetable, and nut crops in the southeastern United States. It has a wide host range, but is most commonly found in cotton, soybean and corn. Euschistus quadrator has recently become a more promi- nent pest with the introduction of crops such as Bt cotton and an increase in the usage of biorational or reduced-risk pesticides. Distribution Euschistus quadrator is originally from Texas and Mexico, and has since been reported in Louisiana, Georgia, and Florida. Description Figure 1.

Arthropods of Elm Fork Preserve
Arthropods of Elm Fork Preserve Arthropods are characterized by having jointed limbs and exoskeletons. They include a diverse assortment of creatures: Insects, spiders, crustaceans (crayfish, crabs, pill bugs), centipedes and millipedes among others. Column Headings Scientific Name: The phenomenal diversity of arthropods, creates numerous difficulties in the determination of species. Positive identification is often achieved only by specialists using obscure monographs to ‘key out’ a species by examining microscopic differences in anatomy. For our purposes in this survey of the fauna, classification at a lower level of resolution still yields valuable information. For instance, knowing that ant lions belong to the Family, Myrmeleontidae, allows us to quickly look them up on the Internet and be confident we are not being fooled by a common name that may also apply to some other, unrelated something. With the Family name firmly in hand, we may explore the natural history of ant lions without needing to know exactly which species we are viewing. In some instances identification is only readily available at an even higher ranking such as Class. Millipedes are in the Class Diplopoda. There are many Orders (O) of millipedes and they are not easily differentiated so this entry is best left at the rank of Class. A great deal of taxonomic reorganization has been occurring lately with advances in DNA analysis pointing out underlying connections and differences that were previously unrealized. For this reason, all other rankings aside from Family, Genus and Species have been omitted from the interior of the tables since many of these ranks are in a state of flux. -

An invasive species, the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Sta˚ l), is spreading through the region. However, little is known about the complex of stink bug species associ- ated with corn and soybean in the midwestern United States. In this region, particularly in the more northern states, stink bugs have historically caused only infrequent impacts to these crops. To prepare growers and agri- cultural professionals to contend with this new threat, we provide a review of stink bugs associated with soybean and corn in the midwestern United States. -
Factors Influencing Mate Choice in Euschistus Conspersus Uhler
BEHAVIOR Factors Influencing Mate Choice in Euschistus conspersus Uhler (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) 1 CHRISTIAN H. KRUPKE, JAY F. BRUNNER, AND VINCENT P. JONES Department of Entomology, Washington State University, Tree Fruit Research and Extension Center, 1100 North Western Ave., Wenatchee, WA 98801 Environ. Entomol. 37(1): 192Ð197 (2008) ABSTRACT The patterns of mating and possible factors inßuencing mate choice in the consperse stink bug, Euschistus conspersus Uhler, were studied in a series of laboratory experiments. Males were found to transfer a signiÞcant percentage of their body mass during the initial mating. Mating was also found to reduce male longevity by 37.8% but had no signiÞcant effect on female longevity or fecundity. There was no evidence of male or female choice based on weight of potential mating partners. There was assortative mating based on experience, however, with males mating preferentially with virgin females and females preferring mated males when given the choice. The implications of theseÞndings within the mating dynamics of this aggregating species are discussed. KEY WORDS Euschistus conspersus, reproductive behavior, mate choice, mating behavior, parental investment The mating period of Euschistus conspersus Uhler has been shown to play a role in the mating dynamics (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) in northcentral Wash- of stink bugs and a variety of other insect species. For ington occurs once each year, during spring through example, virgin males of the red-shouldered stink bug, early summer. During this time,E. conspersus are often Thyanta pallidovirens Stal, have been shown to donate found in aggregations, typically consisting of 10Ð40 a large fraction (Ϸ17%) of their body mass to the individuals, on host plants (Krupke et al. -

Sites1,2, Kristin B. Simpson2, and Diane L. Wood3 Abstract The stink bug (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) fauna of Missouri was last treated more than 70 years ago. Since then, many more specimens have become available for study, substantial papers on regional faunas have been published, and many revisions and other taxonomic changes have taken place. As a consequence, 40% of the names from the previous Missouri state list have changed or the taxa have been removed. -
Edible Insects

Although the majority of consumed insects are gathered in forest habitats, mass-rearing systems are being developed in many countries. Insects offer a significant opportunity to merge traditional knowledge and modern science to improve human food security worldwide. This publication describes the contribution of insects to food security and examines future prospects for raising insects at a commercial scale to improve food and feed production, diversify diets, and support livelihoods in both developing and developed countries. It shows the many traditional and potential new uses of insects for direct human consumption and the opportunities for and constraints to farming them for food and feed. It examines the body of research on issues such as insect nutrition and food safety, the use of insects as animal feed, and the processing and preservation of insects and their products. It highlights the need to develop a regulatory framework to govern the use of insects for food security. And it presents case studies and examples from around the world. Edible insects are a promising alternative to the conventional production of meat, either for direct human consumption or for indirect use as feedstock. -
