OLIGOSPILUS FOERSTER (=N. DESANTISI SMITH) (HYM.: TENTHREDINIDAE) IN THE TAFI VALLEY, TUCUMAN, ARGENTINA: FUTURE CONSIDERATIONS Mariela Alderete1, Gerardo Liljesthröm Nematus oligospilus Foerster (= N. desantisi Smith), a Holartic species whose larvae feed on leaves of Salix spp., was recorded in Argentina and Chile in the 1980´s. In the delta of the Paraná river (DP) and in the Tafí valley (VT) in Argentina, the sawfly larval populations attained high densities and severe defoliations were observed: in 1991-92 and 1993-94 in DP, and in 1990-91 and 1994-95 in VT. In VT the sawfly larvae have remained at low density since then and trials excluding natural enemies showed that larval survivorship was significantly higher than in the controls. Further, an intensive sampling over five consecutive years allowed us to perform a key-factor analysis, and larval mortality, possibly due to predators (polyphagous Divrachys cavus was the only parasitoid recorded from less than 1% host larvae), was density-dependent and supposed to be capable of regulating the sawfly population. The DP and VT regions have different ecological conditions: while DP has broad and continuous willow plantations and a humid-temperate climate, VT is an elevated valley bordered by mountains with a sub-humid cold climate (rains are concentrated in spring and summer) with small and rather isolated willow forests. Apart from these differences, both regions show very low parasitoidism, outbreaks shortly after being recorded in the area, and no significant differences between outbreak and no-outbreak years with respect to mean and mean maximum temperatures as well as in accumulated rainfall. These results permitted to suspect that in DP, natural enemies (general predators) are playing an important role in limiting the sawfly larval population. It is therefore very important to apply the same methods of analysis of mortality used in VT to study N. oligospilus in DP. Key Words: willow, sawfly, larvae, predators, population dynamics. 1 PROIMI-CONICET, Av. Belgrano y Pje Caseros, 4000 Tucumán, Argentina.

It is particularly serious in Argentina where heavy annual losses are caused to the wood industry in the Delta of the Paraná river, Buenos Aires, Argentina. The larvae of the sawfly feed on leaves of willow and infested trees may suffer serious setback and even die. This forest pest is native to the Holartic Region where it occurs throughout Eurasia and North America. Use of chemical insecticides and Bt methods are impracticable. Biological control seems to be the only economically and ecologically practical way to control populations of N. oligospilus introduced into the Southern Hemisphere. A review of the taxonomic structure of parasitoids known to attack Nematus and Pristiphora species in the Holarctic region showed that the parasitoids of the subfamily Camplopleginae and Ctenopelmatinae as well as other monophagous and oligophagous ichneumonids (especially Tryphoninae) are the most important components of the complex of natural enemies associated with these Nematinae sawflies. During a preliminary survey carried out in California, USA in the spring and summer of 2000 to determine the possibilities of biological control of N. oligospilus, the following parasitoids were found associated with the sawfly : Trichogramma aurosum Sugonjaev and Sorokina, T. Sibericum Sorokina (Trichogrammatidae) and Olesicampe californica Cresson (Ichneumonidae, Campopleginae). The tricogrammatids are idiobiont endoparasitoids of eggs causing between 55 and 95% of parasitism, while the ichneumonid is a koinobiont endoparasitoid of larvae causing between 25 and 50% of parasitism in the field. The parasitoids reared during the course of those investigations were identified by Dr. John Pinto (University of California at Riverside) and Dr. Charles C. Porter (USDA Gainesville, Florida).

This insect, native to the subtropical area of Eastern South America, has extended its range in Argentina, reaching as far South as Neuquén in the Argentinian Patagonia. The damage is caused by the adults, which bore large gallery systems into living poplars, Salix and many other broadleaf species, including fruit trees such as walnuts and avocados. The galleries not only degrade the lumber, but weaken trees which often fall during windstorms. A recent introduction to Italy demonstrates that this insect can be transported long distances between countries, and therefore presents a threat to poplar cultivation world-wide. Preliminary results of research aimed at developing a pheromone-based detection and control system are presented.

STAND STRUCTURAL VARIABLES AND LEVELS OF AMBROSIA SMALL-BORER ATTACKS (MEGAPLATYPUS PLICATUS) (BRÉTHES) Alejandro Aparicio1, Gerardo Liljesthröm, Fabio Achinelli, Raúl Marlats Ambrosia small-borer (Megaplatypus plicatus (=Platypus sulcatus)) is a major plague in poplar plantations (Populus spp.) of Argentina. Models for damage prediction are required as key components of an integrated management strategy. For this reason, it is necessary to study the spatial patterns of borer attacks that affect plantations during the season of adult emergence. The aim of this work is to determine relationships between levels of small-borer attacks and stand structural variables of poplar plantations in Alberti, Buenos Aires, Argentina. This study was done during the 2003-2004 adult emergence season, on 16 permanent plots (PSP) consisting of 100 trees each (n=1600 trees). No significant relationship was found between the average diameter at breast height (DBH) of trees and the total number of male galleries (MG) present in each PSP (r= 0,34). Nine out of the ten PSP with highest number of attacks, showed an aggregate spatial pattern of MG, which fitted to a negative binomial probability distribution (mean k=0,72); in only one PSP, MG spatial pattern was random, which fitted to a Poisson probability distribution. As the number of attacks within each PSP increased, the number of trees attacked also increased; a multiplicative relationship was found between both variables (r2 =0,97). When trees were rearranged and grouped according to number of attacks received, a noticeable DBH heterogeneity was observed within each group. However, when mean DBH of each group is considered, a tendency appears evident for increasing number of attacks in highest mean DBH (r= 0,85). As regards MG viability, only 23% of them showed signs of activity in the April 2004 census. Concentration of attacks in some of the largest trees would explain the occurrence of aggregate spatial patterns within most PSPs. Even though there seems to be a tendency for high DBH class trees to present a greater number of attacks, DBH of individual trees is insufficient as the only input variable to predict number of attacks per tree. Results of this screening phase would indicate that stand-scale attacks are being produced by local populations of the plague, and that stand history and location could be as important or sometimes more decisive factors than structure in defining the level of small-borer attacks. The high number of inactive MG at the end of the emergence period reveals the presence of some factors that would significantly affect the processes involved in the transition from MG to larval, viable galleries.

  • ELIZABETH LOCKARD SKILLEN Diversity of Parasitic Hymenoptera
    ELIZABETH LOCKARD SKILLEN Diversity of Parasitic Hymenoptera (Ichneumonidae: Campopleginae and Ichneumoninae) in Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Eastern North American Forests (Under the direction of JOHN PICKERING) I examined species richness and composition of Campopleginae and Ichneumoninae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) parasitoids in cut and uncut forests and before and after fire in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee (GSMNP). I also compared alpha and beta diversity along a latitudinal gradient in Eastern North America with sites in Ontario, Maryland, Georgia, and Florida. Between 1997- 2000, I ran insect Malaise traps at 6 sites in two habitats in GSMNP. Sites include 2 old-growth mesic coves (Porters Creek and Ramsay Cascades), 2 second-growth mesic coves (Meigs Post Prong and Fish Camp Prong) and 2 xeric ridges (Lynn Hollow East and West) in GSMNP. I identified 307 species (9,716 individuals): 165 campoplegine species (3,273 individuals) and a minimum of 142 ichneumonine species (6,443 individuals) from 6 sites in GSMNP. The results show the importance of habitat differences when examining ichneumonid species richness at landscape scales. I report higher richness for both subfamilies combined in the xeric ridge sites (Lynn Hollow West (114) and Lynn Hollow East (112)) than previously reported peaks at mid-latitudes, in Maryland (103), and lower than Maryland for the two cove sites (Porters Creek, 90 and Ramsay Cascades, 88). These subfamilies appear to have largely recovered 70+ years after clear-cutting, yet Campopleginae may be more susceptible to logging disturbance. Campopleginae had higher species richness in old-growth coves and a 66% overlap in species composition between previously cut and uncut coves.

  • Molecular Basis of Pheromonogenesis Regulation in Moths
    Chapter 8 Molecular Basis of Pheromonogenesis Regulation in Moths J. Joe Hull and Adrien Fónagy Abstract Sexual communication among the vast majority of moths typically involves the synthesis and release of species-specifc, multicomponent blends of sex pheromones (types of insect semiochemicals) by females. These compounds are then interpreted by conspecifc males as olfactory cues regarding female reproduc- tive readiness and assist in pinpointing the spatial location of emitting females. Studies by multiple groups using different model systems have shown that most sex pheromones are synthesized de novo from acetyl-CoA by functionally specialized cells that comprise the pheromone gland. Although signifcant progress was made in identifying pheromone components and elucidating their biosynthetic pathways, it wasn’t until the advent of modern molecular approaches and the increased avail- ability of genetic resources that a more complete understanding of the molecular basis underlying pheromonogenesis was developed. Pheromonogenesis is regulated by a neuropeptide termed Pheromone Biosynthesis Activating Neuropeptide (PBAN) that acts on a G protein-coupled receptor expressed at the surface of phero- mone gland cells. Activation of the PBAN receptor (PBANR) triggers a signal trans- duction cascade that utilizes an infux of extracellular Ca2+ to drive the concerted action of multiple enzymatic steps (i.e. chain-shortening, desaturation, and fatty acyl reduction) that generate the multicomponent pheromone blends specifc to each species. In this chapter, we provide a brief overview of moth sex pheromones before expanding on the molecular mechanisms regulating pheromonogenesis, and con- clude by highlighting recent developments in the literature that disrupt/exploit this critical pathway.

The 3rd European Workshop on Sea Buckthorn (EuroWorkS2014) was held in Naantali, Finland on 14th to 16th of October 2014 under the theme “Producing Sea Buckthorn of High Quality”. Conference concentrated on three topics that were recognized to be current under the theme: sea buckthorn fly, cultivation technology and standardization of sea buckthorn. A special attention was paid to sea buckthorn fly because of its rapid and destructive invasion to Europe. Protective measurements need to be studied fast to get this new pest under control. Also long-term strategies are needed in order to continue efficient berry production, also without pesti- cides. Dr. Ljubov Shamanskaja has a long research experience with sea buckthorn fly in Barnaul, Rus- sia, where the fly has been a problem over 20 years.

  • Poplars and Willows: Trees for Society and the Environment / Edited by J.G
    Poplars and Willows Trees for Society and the Environment This volume is respectfully dedicated to the memory of Victor Steenackers. Vic, as he was known to his friends, was born in Weelde, Belgium, in 1928. His life was devoted to his family – his wife, Joanna, his 9 children and his 23 grandchildren. His career was devoted to the study and improve- ment of poplars, particularly through poplar breeding. As Director of the Poplar Research Institute at Geraardsbergen, Belgium, he pursued a lifelong scientific interest in poplars and encouraged others to share his passion. As a member of the Executive Committee of the International Poplar Commission for many years, and as its Chair from 1988 to 2000, he was a much-loved mentor and powerful advocate, spreading scientific knowledge of poplars and willows worldwide throughout the many member countries of the IPC. This book is in many ways part of the legacy of Vic Steenackers, many of its contributing authors having learned from his guidance and dedication. Vic Steenackers passed away at Aalst, Belgium, in August 2010, but his work is carried on by others, including mem- bers of his family.
