ARTHROPODA Subphylum Hexapoda Protura, Springtails, Diplura, and Insects

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000). -

Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4. -

(Hymenoptera: Braconidae, Microgastrinae) from Iran
J. Agr. Sci. Tech. (2019) Vol. 21(3): 647-658 Dolichogenidea fernandeztrianai sp. nov. (Hymenoptera: Braconidae, Microgastrinae) from Iran P. Abdoli1, A. A. Talebi1, and S. Farahani2 ABSTRACT The genus Dolichogenidea was studied from the northern Iran during 2010–2011. The specimens were collected using a set of Malaise traps. A new species Dolichogenidea fernandeztrianai Abdoli and Talebi sp. nov. is hereby described and illustrated. The new species can be distinguished by the following characters: fore wing vein R1 as long as or slightly longer than pterostigma and 4.90× as long as distance of vein R1 to vein 3RSb; T1 more or less parallel- to subparallel sided, smooth, with a distinct protuberance on central area and its length 1.70× posterior width; T2 smooth, transverse and rectangular; T3 longer than T2; ovipositor sheath with uniform width from base to apex and clearly longer than metatibia. An updated checklist for the Iranian species of this genus is provided in addition to their distribution data and references. Keywords: New species, Species-groups, Taxonomy. INTRODUCTION coupled with the occurrence of many cryptic species produces a significant taxonomic Parasitic Hymenoptera is one of the impediment that hinders the advancement of extremely species-rich group of insects in their study (Smith et al., 2008, 2013). terrestrial ecosystems (Shaw and Hochberg, Rodriguez et al. (2013) suggested that 2001). The family Braconidae is the second number of described species could be about largest family after Ichneumonidae in the 5–15% of true global diversity of this order Hymenoptera (Aguiar et al., 2013) subfamily. include more than 21,220 species under Viereck (1911) initially described 1,100 genera (Yu et al., 2016). -

DNA barcode (658 bp sequence from the 5′-end of cytochromeoxidase I) analysis of hymenopterans collected in a Malaise trap in Chittagong university campus was performed to analyze the diversity of parasitic wasps. In the present study a total of 3,468 sequences were generated that represented 31 species, 83 genera and 22 families from seven superfamilies of Hymenoptera. Among them 25 species namely Aphanogmus fijiensis Ferriere, Telenomus remus Nixon, Ganaspis xanthopoda Ashmead, Encarsia sophia Girault & Dodd, Copidosoma floridanum Ashmead , C. thebe Walker, Ceranisus menes Walker, Hemiptarsenus varicornis Girault, Eupelmus martellii Masi, Trichogramma achaeae Nagaraja and Nagarkatti, Trichogrammatoidea bactrae Nagaraja, Binodoxys acalephae Marshall, B. -
Order Hymenoptera, Family Braconidae
Arthropod fauna of the UAE, 6: 275–321 (2017) Order Hymenoptera, family Braconidae Subfamily Microgastrinae from the Arabian Peninsula José Fernández-Triana & Cornelis van Achterberg INTRODUCTION Microgastrinae (Hymenoptera) is the second largest subfamily of Braconidae with more than 55 genera and 2200 described species (Yu et al., 2012), and likely thousands more species awaiting description (Mason, 1981; Rodriguez et al., 2012). It is also one of the most diverse groups of parasitoid wasps and has significant importance in biological control programs because they attack the larvae of most families of Lepidoptera (Whitfield, 1995, 1997). The Arabian Peninsula is probably the least-studied area in the planet regarding microgastrines. Within such a large expanse of land, covering more than 3×106 km2, only two species and one genus of Microgastrinae had been recorded so far: Cotesia bignellii (Marshall, 1885) from the United Arab Emirates and Cotesia ruficrus (Haliday, 1834) from Yemen (Yu et al., 2012). Even for the northernmost areas of the Arctic the documented diversity of microgastrine wasps is much higher than what was known for the Arabian Peninsula (e.g. Fernández-Triana, 2010). The present paper records for the first time a significant number of genera and species for the Arabian Peninsula. An illustrated key to the genera and comments on the distribution of all species identified so far, are provided. The following 12 new species are described: Choeras afrotropicalis, Venanides flavus, V. longifrons, V. supracompressus, V. tenuitergus and V. vanharteni (all of them authored by Fernández-Triana & van Achterberg), and Distatrix yemeniticus, Illidops albostigmalis, Keylimepie hadhramautensis, K. sanaaensis, Miropotes inexpectatus and Wilkinsonellus arabicus (all of them authored by van Achterberg & Fernández-Triana). -

It is based on a concatenated alignment of the mitochondrial gene COI and up to 11 nuclear gene fragments, using Bayesian inference of phylogeny. To avoid analytical biases that could result from our region-focus sampling, our European tree was grafted upon a global genus- level backbone butterfly phylogeny for analyses. In addition to a consensus tree, we provide the posterior distribution of trees and the fully-concatenated alignment for future analyses.
