Vol 20, No. 5;May 2013 Some Biological Parameters and Morphological Descriptions Study on the Milkweed Bug, Spilostethus Pandurus Scop., (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae) Hanan H. Awad*, Heba A. S. Elelimy, Aziza H. Omar and Afaf A. Meguid Entomology Dep., Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Egypt * Corresponding author. Tel.: +20 1005690494; fax: +20 235728843. E-mail address: [email protected] Abstract The milkweed bug, Spilostethus pandurus, is an agricultural pest in Egypt and some other tropical and subtropical areas. The objective of the present work is to clarify some biological parameters and morphological descriptions to emphasize the future researches from the ecological view point to the physiological study, biochemical study and control programs, integrated pest management program, study. Adult emergence of S. pandurus in summer season was higher than that in winter season. The increased longevity of S. pandurus was associated with prolonged rate of sexual maturation and low mean daily fecundity and that the life span increased during the cold months of the year and decreased during the hot summer and the males lived longer than females. The morphological descriptions of the adult and immature stages of S. pandurus were agreed with the taxonomic illustrations. Key words: Milkweed bug; Biology; development; morphology. Introduction The milkweed bug Spilostethus pandurus, occurs throughout Egypt all the year round (Priesner and Alfieri, 1953). The Hemipteran bugs have long been established in Egypt as one of the serious pests infesting the seeds of great number of plants (Schaefer and Panizzi, 2000; Meguid et al., 2013). The milkweed bug S. pandurus is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical areas where at times it causes serious damage (Kugelberg, 1973a).Their economic importance has been steadily increased in recent years, and the annual losses due to their ravages against vegetables and other crops are sometimes great and immeasurable. -

By its rarity in the Catalan fauna, the mirid Deraeocoris (D.) schach (Fabricius, 1781) and the pentatomid Sciocoris (N.) maculatus Fieber, 1851 are interesting species. Plus being rare species, the mirid Macrotylus (A.) solitarius (Meyer-Dür, 1843) and the pentatomid Sciocoris (S.) umbrinus (Wolff, 1804) are new records for the Natural Park. The mirids Alloetomus germanicus Wagner, 1939 and Amblytylus brevicollis Fieber, 1858, and the pentatomid Eysarcoris aeneus (Scopoli, 1763) are new contributions for the Park checklist. The Heteropteran richness of Can Coll suggests them as study group for the environmental education goals of this School of Nature.

CH1NA 1 During the Field Museum Anthropological Expedition to the Near East in 1934, the leader, Dr. Henry Field, and his collaborators obtained a large amount of zoological material. Later, more speci mens were acquired by Dr. Field's collector, Yusuf Lazar, in Iraq. From Mr. H. St. J. Philby, in Mecca, Arabia, Field Museum also received, as a much appreciated gift, various zoological specimens from Arabia. Among the insects obtained as indicated were some interesting Hemiptera, which I am recording at the request of the Director of Field Museum and by permission of the Trustees of the British Museum (Natural History). A cicada, Melampsalta fraseri, from Iraq, and a genus and species of fulgorid, Philbyella arabica, from Arabia, proved to be new and are, therefore, described.

Abstrakt: Nápadně zbarvené druhy mohou vytvářet mimetické komplexy. Jedním z nich je rozsáhlý černo- červený mimetický komplex v palearktické oblasti. Tvoří ho zástupci napříč taxony členovců s různou úrovní obrany a investicí do ní. K popsání jednotlivých mimetických vztahů v tomto komplexu je třeba poznat efektivitu těchto obranných mechanismů vůči predátorům. Reakce jednotlivých predátorů se značně liší. Odlišnost reakcí primárně závisí na schopnosti vnímat prostředky obrany, pomocí smyslových a kognitivních schopností. Mechanismy a efektivita antipredační obrany jsou předmětem řady studií, avšak stále chybí popis některých mechanismů u řady zástupců tohoto mimetického komplexu. Z tohoto důvodu jsou potřeba další studie, umožňující v budoucnosti vyvození mimetických vztahů panujících v tomto mimetickém komplexu. -

The second part of the catalogue of the Otokar Kubík collection of Heteroptera covers the superfamily Lygaeoidea, the families Lygaeidae, Cymidae, Blissidae, Geocoridae, Arthe nei dae, Heterogastridae, Oxycarenidae, and Rhyparochromidae. Most of the material originate from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia Hercegovina, Bulgaria and Hun - gary; a few specimens from other countries are also found. The following data are particu- larly noteworthy: Raglioides delineatus (Rambur, 1839), so far known as endemic to southern Spain, is recorded from Morocco for the first time; Nysius helveticus (Herrich-Schaeffer, 1850), Geocoris (Geocoris) lineola lineola (Rambur, 1839), Gonianotus galactodermus Fieber, 1861, and Peritrechus geniculatus (Hahn, 1832) are new species for Croatia; the occurrences of Plinthisus (Plinthisus) coracinus Horváth, 1876 and Megalonotus sabulicola (Thomson, 1870) in Croatia, and of Orsillus depressus (Mulsant & Rey, 1852), Geocoris (Piocoris) erythrocepha lus (Lepeletier & Serville, 1825), Emblethis verbasci (Fabricius, 1803), Beosus maritimus (Sco po li, 1763), and Rhyparochromus phoeniceus (Rossi, 1794) in Bosnia Hercegovina, are confirmed. Additional records of the rare and critically threatened species Macrodema microptera (Cur - tis, 1836), Pionosomus opacellus Horváth, 1895, and Pionosomus varius (Wolff, 1804) from Bohemia are also interesting.
