Meeker2 The Featured Creatures collection provides in-depth profiles pitch masses are larger, appear irregularly-shaped, and flow of insects, nematodes, arachnids and other organisms for months. BTB pitch masses are typically less than 25 relevant to Florida. These profiles are intended for the use of mm in diameter, have an obvious entrance hole, solidify in interested laypersons with some knowledge of biology as well weeks, and are concentrated on the lower bole of large trees as academic audiences. (Barnard and Dixon 1983; Goolsby et al. 1972). Introduction The southern pine coneworm, Dioryctria amatella (Hulst), also commonly referred to as a pitch moth, is consistently one of the most damaging insect pests of pine seed orchard crops throughout the southeastern United States (Ebel et al. 1980). Less well-recognized is that this widespread insect also attacks other parts of pines (Pinus spp.) besides cones. Caterpillars can be found feeding on and in buds, male and female flowers, shoots, branches and stems of all ages and sizes, as well as in conelets (first-year cones) and second- year cones (Ebel 1965; Ebel et al. 1980; Goolsby et al. 1972).

The most noticeable symptom of an org infestation is large masses of pitch exuding from the feeding In addition to cones, susceptible host material includes: sites of caterpillars, hence the name “pitch moth.” Reddish- trees under stress, mechanically injured stems or branches, brown frass may also be evident at feeding sites and is elongating shoots of long leaf (P.

Vol. 31, No. 1: 46-50, January 2015 http://dx.doi.org/10.5635/ASED.2015.31.1.046 Short communication Two Species of Phycitinae (Lepidoptera, Pyralidae) New to Korea Mujie Qi, Yang-Seop Bae* Bio-Resource and Environmental Center, College of Life Sciences and Bioengineering, Incheon National University, Incheon 406-772, Korea ABSTRACT Two species of Phycitinae, Rabiria rufimaculella (Yamanaka, 1993) and Copamyntis martimella Kirpichnikova & Yamanaka, 2002, are reported for the first time from Korea. Rabiria rufimaculella can be recognized by having two reddish-yellow and short bands near the postmedial and antemedial line, and by the bifurcate gnathos and the cornutus which is formed by numerous thorn-shaped sclerites in male genitalia. Copamyntis martimella can be distinguished with the congeners by the uniformly distributed setae on the sacculus and the curved aedeagus in male genitalia and the peanut-shaped signum near the middle of the corpus bursae in female genitalia. The adults and genitalia of the species are redescribed and illustrated. Keywords: Pyralidae, Phycitinae, Rabiria, Copamyntis, new records, Korea INTRODUCTION SYSTEMATIC ACCOUNTS The Phycitinae are one of the largest subfamilies of the family Order Lepidoptera Linnaeus, 1758 Pyralidae in Lepidoptera, comprising approximately 5,000 Family Pyralidae Latreille, 1809 species in the world (Li and Ren, 2009).

  • Phylogeny and Biogeography of the Enigmatic Ghost Lineage
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Phylogeny and biogeography of the enigmatic ghost lineage Cylindrotomidae (Diptera, Nematocera) Iwona Kania‑Kłosok 1*, André Nel 2, Jacek Szwedo 3, Wiktoria Jordan‑Stasiło1 & Wiesław Krzemiński 4 Ghost lineages have always challenged the understanding of organism evolution. They participate in misinterpretations in phylogenetic, clade dating, biogeographic, and paleoecologic studies. They directly result from fossilization biases and organism biology. The Cylindrotomidae are a perfect example of an unexplained ghost lineage during the Mesozoic, as its sister family Tipulidae is already well diversifed during the Cretaceous, while the oldest Cylindrotomidae are Paleogene representatives of the extant genus Cylindrotoma and of the enigmatic fossil genus Cyttaromyia. Here we clarify the phylogenetic position of Cyttaromyia in the stem group of the whole family, suggesting that the crown group of the Cylindrotomidae began to diversify during the Cenozoic, unlike their sister group Tipulidae. We make a comparative analysis of all species in Cyttaromyia, together with the descriptions of the two new species, C. gelhausi sp. nov. and C. freiwaldi sp. nov., and the revision of C. obdurescens. The cylindrotomid biogeography seems to be incongruent with the phylogenetic analysis, the apparently most derived subfamily Stibadocerinae having apparently a ‘Gondwanan’ distribution, with some genera only known from Australia or Chile, while the most inclusive Cylindrotominae are Holarctic.

  • The Diptera of Lancashire and Cheshire: Craneflies and Winter Gnats
    The Diptera of Lancashire and Cheshire: Craneflies and Winter Gnats by Phil Brighton 32, Wadeson Way, Croft, Warrington WA3 7JS [email protected] Version 1.1 26 November 2017 1 Summary This document provides a new checklist for the craneflies and winter gnats (Tipuloidea, Ptychopteridae and Trichoceridae) to extend the lists of the diptera of Lancashire and Cheshire first published by Kidd and Bindle in 1959. Overall statistics on recording activity are given by decade and hectad. Checklists are presented for each of the three Watsonian vice-counties 58, 59, and 60 detailing for each species the number of records, year of earliest and most recent record, and the number of hectads with records. A combined checklist showing distribution by the three vice-counties is also included, covering a total of 264 species, amounting to 75% of the current British checklist. Introduction This report is the third in a series to update and extend the partial checklist of the diptera of Lancashire and Cheshire published in 1959 by Leonard Kidd and Alan Brindle1. There were two previous updates, in 19642 and 19713. The previous reports in this series cover the soldierflies and allies4 and the Sepsidae5, the latter family not having been covered in Ref 1. The reader is referred to the first two reports for the background and rationale of these checklists, as well as the history of diptera recording and available data sources. The description of methodology is also kept to a minimum in the present report: only significant differences from the previous publications will be outlined.
