    Boletín de la Sociedad Entomológica Aragonesa (S.E.A.), nº 56 (30/6/2015): 327–334. ISSN: 1134-6094 A NEW PREVIOUSLY PREDICTED LARVAL HOST FOR THE ASIAN SEED BEETLE MEGABRUCHIDIUS TONKINEUS (PIC, 1904), AND THE INCORPORATION OF M. DORSALIS (FÅHRAEUS, 1839) TO THE ARGENTINIAN FAUNA OF BRUCHINAE (COLEOPTERA: CHRYSOMELIDAE) Osvaldo R. Di Iorio Entomología, Departamento de Biodiversidad y Biología Experimental, Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, 4º Piso, Pabellón II, (CP 1428) Ciudad Universitaria, Buenos Aires, Argentina. [email protected] Abstract. The Asian seed beetle Megabruchidius tonkineus (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae), erroneously identified as to Bruchidius endotubercularis, was accidentally introduced in Argentina after 1993, discovered in 2002 in seeds of the exotic North American Gleditsia triacanthos (Caesalpiniaceae). At the same time, it was predicted that Gleditsia amorphoides (Caesalpiniaceae), a native plant from northern Argentina, would be adopted as a new larval host. The finding of M. tonkineus in seeds of G. amorphoides from north Argentina is confirmed here for the first time. New locality records, number of infested and reinfested pods, and viable seeds consumed by two generations of the Asian seed beetle in G. amorphoides are given. This native plant may be negatively affected by M. tonkineus due to the small size of its pods and the few number of seeds per pod. The incorporation of Megabruchidius dorsalis to the Argentinian fauna of Bruchinae in seeds of G. triacanthos is accomplished here also for the first time. Key words: exotic Asian seed beetles, honey locust, South America.

Abstract: Production of fruits of Gleditsia amorphoides (Fabaceae) and abundance of Bruchidius endotubercularis Arora (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) during three consecutive years in the Southeast of the Formosa Province (Argentina). Gleditsia amorphoides (Griseb.) Taub. is a tree species native to South America. It is known for its good quality wood and for its fruits that contain a rubber for industrial uses. One of the causes for the reduction of the production of viable seeds in forest trees is the damage caused by predators of fruits and seeds. The relationship between fruit production and predators is not known for G. amorphoides. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated the fruit production in this three species and the abundance of specimens of the Subfamily Bruchinae associated to G. amorphoides. The study was carried out in three localities of the Formosa Province in the Northeast of Argentina for three consecutive years. We found a single species of Bruchinae, identified as Bruchidius endotubercularis Arora. The results showed the existence of variability in the production of G.

KOSTLIN1 "...Uno piensa que los días de un árbol son todos iguales. Sobre todo si es un árbol viejo. No. Un día de un viejo árbol es un día del mundo..." (Fragmento de "La balada del álamo Carolina" de Haroldo Conti) Summary: Identification of woody Leguminosae-Caesalpinioideae of Paranaense forest (Misiones, Argentina) using vegetative characters. In this study, I explored the diversity of vegetative morphological traits of native taxa of Leguminosae-Caesalpinioideae (in the traditional circumscription) from Misiones Province of Argentina, in order to facilitate the identification of genera, species, subspecies, and varieties in the absence of flowers and fruits. Herbarium specimens from the 15 species of shrubs - trees and lianas of Caesalpinioideae belonging to 10 genera present in Misiones were studied. The analyzed traits were: life form, phyllotaxis, stem, leaf, stipules, glands and extrafloral nectaries, type of venation, pubescence, and buds. As a result, an identification key to all taxa studied and descriptions of vegetative characters of all the taxa are presented. A discussion of the diversity observed in vegetative characters is also added, as well as observations about distribution, habitat, and phenology. In addition, a vegetative key to subfamilies of shrubs-trees and lianas of Leguminosae of the Paranaense forests of Misiones is provided to facilitate identification of the Caesalpinioideae.

Assessment of new biocontrol agents of Parkinsonia Abstract MLA contracted CSIRO (2010-2013) to assess potential new biocontrol agents of parkinsonia, a serious weed of the northern beef industry. The objectives were to select the top three species and conclusively determine whether they are suitable for release and to submit release applications. We exceeded these objectives by determining the suitability of the ten previously-identified highest priority agents. Six were rejected based entirely onnative range work and five (including a new species) were assessed further in an Australian quarantine facility. Of the latter two were shown to be suitable biocontrol agents, both looper caterpillars (family Geometridae). The first of these, Eueupithecia cisplatensis, has been approved for release and the first releases have been made in northern Australia; it is too early to know the results of these releases.
