Abstract The new species Fulvius borgesi is described from Azores Islands. The male and female genital structures are illustrated. Key words: Heteroptera, Miridae, Cylapinae, Fulvinii, Fulvius, new species, Azores Islands Introduction Fulvius Stål, 1862 is the largest genus within the Cylapinae (Insecta: Heteroptera: Miridae), with upward of 60 species in the World (Gorczyca, 1997, 2000 ; Ferreira & Henry, 2002). Despite recent efforts to document the species of the genus, various taxa - particularly from the New World - remain undescribed. Recently, our colleague P. A. V. Borges sent to the second author a small series of Fulvius sp. impossible to attribute to an already known species, from Terceira, Azores Islands. In the present work, we provide the description of both sexes of Fulvius borgesi n. sp. to accomodate these specimens. The Arthoropoda biodiversity of Azores was recently reviewed (Borges et al., 2005). Eighteen Miridae species, including two endemics and fifteen assumed native (J. Ribes & Borges in Borges et al., 2005: 192), in four subfamilies (Bryocorinae, Mirinae, Orthotylinae, and Phylinae), are listed from the archipelago. Taylorilygus apicalis (FIEBER, 1861) was very probably introduced. Accepted by C. Schaefer: 2 Feb. 2006; published: 17 Mar. 2006 63.

JROESCHNE,RD SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 407 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

  • Acquired Natural Enemies of Oxyops Vitiosa 1
    Christensen et al.: Acquired Natural Enemies of Oxyops vitiosa 1 ACQUIRED NATURAL ENEMIES OF THE WEED BIOLOGICAL CONTROL AGENT OXYOPS VITIOSA (COLEPOTERA: CURCULIONIDAE) ROBIN M. CHRISTENSEN, PAUL D. PRATT, SHERYL L. COSTELLO, MIN B. RAYAMAJHI AND TED D. CENTER USDA/ARS, Invasive Plant Research Laboratory, 3225 College Ave., Ft. Lauderdale, FL 33314 ABSTRACT The Australian curculionid Oxyops vitiosa Pascoe was introduced into Florida in 1997 as a biological control agent of the invasive tree Melaleuca quinquenervia (Cav.) S. T. Blake. Pop- ulations of the weevil increased rapidly and became widely distributed throughout much of the invasive tree’s adventive distribution. In this study we ask if O. vitiosa has acquired nat- ural enemies in Florida, how these enemies circumvent the protective terpenoid laden exu- dates on larvae, and what influence 1 of the most common natural enemies has on O. vitiosa population densities? Surveys of O. vitiosa populations and rearing of field-collected individ- uals resulted in no instances of parasitoids or pathogens exploiting weevil eggs or larvae. In contrast, 44 species of predatory arthropods were commonly associated (>5 individuals when pooled across all sites and sample dates) with O. vitiosa. Eleven predatory species were ob- served feeding on O. vitiosa during timed surveys, including 6 pentatomid species, 2 formi- cids and 3 arachnids. Species with mandibulate or chelicerate mouthparts fed on adult stages whereas pentatomids, with haustellate beaks, pierced larval exoskeletons thereby by- passing the protective larval coating. Observations of predation were rare, with only 8% of timed surveys resulting in 1 or more instances of attack. Feeding by the pentatomid Podisus mucronatus Uhler accounted for 76% of all recorded predation events.

  • Minute Sucking Bug Complex Causing Pimples on the Skin of Avocado Fruit in the Soutpansberg District
    Minute sucking bug complex causing pimples on the skin of avocado fruit in the Soutpansberg district AJ Alberts Agricultural consultant PO Box 222, Levubu 0929, South Africa E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The avocado bug (Taylorilygus spp.) causes lesions below the skin of avocado fruit making them unsuitable for export. These lesions are called bumps or “vosknoppe”. Reports of pimple like lesions in the Soutpansberg district and also from the Tzaneen region are also attributed to the same bug. Investigations are, however, pointing that several other minute sucking bugs belonging to the suborders Sternorrhyncha, Auchenorrhyncha and Heteroptera are to be found on avocado trees during the fl ower- ing and fruit set periods. All insects visiting the avocado trees during the 2008 fl owering and fruit set season were monitored. The re- sults are presented. Strategies to monitor and control these minute sucking bugs are proposed.
