Biological Control in Biological BOTANY There has been a large increase in the commercial use of integrated crop/pest management methods for pest and disease control on a wide range of crops throughout the world since the first edition of this Biological book. The completely revised second edition of the bestselling Biological Control in Plant Protec- tion: A Color Handbook continues the objective of providing a handbook with profiles and full-color Control in photographs of as many examples of biological con- trol organisms from as wide a global area as pos- sible. It is designed to help readers anticipate and Plant Protection recognize specific problems of pest management and then resolve them using the natural enemies of pests—parasites, predators, and pathogens. A Color Handbook The authors first describe the impact of predator– Plant Protection prey relationships on host plant species in arable, orchard, and protected environments. The main Second Edition sections of the book include profiles of pests, ben- eficial arthropods (insects and mites), and beneficial pathogens (bacteria, fungi, viruses, and nematodes), Neil Helyer featuring a tabular pest identification guide. De- scriptions of biocontrol organisms are divided into Nigel D. Cattlin four sections: species characteristics, lifecycle, crop/ pest associations, and influences of growing prac- Kevin C. Brown tices. The text is illustrated throughout with color photographs of the highest quality. This revised edition helps readers more fully un- derstand the concepts and practice of biological control and integrated pest management. All chap- ters have been updated and expanded, and more than 300 new photographs have been added. The Helyer | Cattlin Brown second edition covers new beneficial organisms and pest profiles, and it includes a new chapter on the practical aspects and application of biological con- trol. It also contains a new final chapter that puts biological control in perspective, discussing interac- tions that occur when using biocontrol for popula- tion management as well as some of the possible mechanisms of biocontrol.

    How Water Quality in Transboundary River Systems Affects Water, Sanitation, and Foreign Policy

    How Water Quality in Transboundary River Systems Affects Water, Sanitation, and Foreign Policy | 1 How Water Quality in Transboundary River Systems Affects Water, Sanitation, and Foreign Policy David Tipping, 2001 By David C. Tipping Edited by Yeareen Yun Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of any agency of the Australian government. Assumptions made within the analysis are not reflective of the position of any Australian government entity, or other organization or professional association. 1. INTRODUCTION Access to adequate water supply and sanitation is the core premise of local level water security. Effective management of transboundary river basin systems and water quality risks is therefore fundamental to social progress and quality of life. Improved water quality management benefits many individual lives in riparian nations, and, as demonstrated by the annual new year blessing of the fish migrations, society at large throughout the Mekong River Basin. In 2001, the author investigated the use of sustainable development indicators to improve the institutional effectiveness of international environmental management regimes. A new framework was designed to evaluate beneficial uses of water. In addition, a case study was developed on the Lower Mekong River Basin system, which integrated measures of water and environmental quality and socio-economic development. The research objectives were: (1) improving the understanding of water quality issues; (2) benchmarking water resources management performance at local, national and regional levels; and (3) enhancing technical and administrative capabilities of transboundary river basin management regimes through capacity development focused on the achievement of sustainable development objectives, and obligations and duties under international law.

The investigated farms were placed in three different geographical regions with different environmental conditions (agricultural lowland environment, regularly flooded area and woodland area of medium height mountains). During the survey, a total number of 6,706 individuals belonging to 247 species were collected with pitfall traps. The most common species were: Dinaraea angustula, Omalium caesum, Drusilla canaliculata, Oxypoda abdominale, Philonthus nitidulus, Dexiogya corticina, Xantholinus linearis, X. lon- giventris, Aleochara bipustulata, Mocyta orbata, Oligota pumilio, Platydracus stercorarius, Olophrum assimile, Tachyporus hypnorum, T. nitidulus and Ocypus olens. The most characteristic species in conventionally treated orchards with sandy soil were: Philonthuss nitidulus, Tachyporus hypnorum, and Mocyta orbata, while species to be found in the same regions, but frequent in abandoned orchards as well were: Omalium caesum, Oxypoda abdominale, Xantholinus linearis and Drusilla canaliculata.ThespeciesDinaraea angustula, Oligota pumilio, Dexiogya corticina, Xantholinus longiventris, Tachyporus nitidulus and Ocypus olens have a different level of preferences towards the conventionally treated orchards in clay soil.

    Remarks on Some European Aleocharinae, with Description of a New Rhopaletes Species from Croatia (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae)

    Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle © Décembre Vol. LIII pp. 191–215 «Grigore Antipa» 2010 DOI: 10.2478/v10191-010-0015-6 REMARKS ON SOME EUROPEAN ALEOCHARINAE, WITH DESCRIPTION OF A NEW RHOPALETES SPECIES FROM CROATIA (COLEOPTERA: STAPHYLINIDAE) LÁSZLÓ ÁDÁM Abstract. Based on an examination of type and non-type material, ten species-group names are synonymised: Atheta mediterranea G. Benick, 1941, Aloconota carpathica Jeannel et Jarrige, 1949 and Atheta carpatensis Tichomirova, 1973 with Aloconota mihoki (Bernhauer, 1913); Amischa jugorum Scheerpeltz, 1956 with Amischa analis (Gravenhorst, 1802); Amischa strupii Scheerpeltz, 1967 with Amischa bifoveolata (Mannerheim, 1830); Atheta tricholomatobia V. B. Semenov, 2002 with Atheta boehmei Linke, 1934; Atheta palatina G. Benick, 1974 and Atheta palatina G. Benick, 1975 with Atheta dilaticornis (Kraatz, 1856); Atheta degenerata G. Benick, 1974 and Atheta degenerata G. Benick, 1975 with Atheta testaceipes (Heer, 1839). A new name, Atheta velebitica nom. nov. is proposed for Atheta serotina Ádám, 2008, a junior primary homonym of Atheta serotina Blackwelder, 1944. A revised key for the Central European species of the Aloconota sulcifrons group is provided. Comments on the separation of the males of Amischa bifoveolata and A. analis are given. A key for the identification of Amischa species occurring in Hungary and its close surroundings is presented. Remarks are presented about the relationships of Alevonota Thomson, 1858 and Enalodroma Thomson, 1859. The taxonomic status of Oxypodera Bernhauer, 1915 and Mycetota Ádám, 1987 is discussed. The specific status of Pella hampei (Kraatz, 1862) is debated. Remarks are presented about the relationships of Alevonota Thomson, 1858, as well as Mycetota Ádám, 1987, Oxypodera Bernhauer, 1915 and Rhopaletes Cameron, 1939.

Prey species were restrained in five Hungarian maize fields for 1 h periods beginning at 09:00 and 22:00 hours. The proportion of each species attacked and the number and identity of predators consum- ing each prey item were recorded. All predators spent less time eating D.
