PROCEEDINGS of the Hawaiian Entomological Society Vol. XVII, No. 3 For the Year I960 August, 1961 January 11, I960 The 649th meeting of the Hawaiian Entomological Society was held at the Experiment Station, HSPA, at 2:00 P. M. on Monday, January 11, I960, with President Joyce presiding. Members present: Anderson, Ando, Beardsley, Bess, Bianchi, Bryan, Burditt, Carter, Chilson, Davis, Fullaway, Habeck, Hardy, Hinckley, Holloway, Joyce, Kamasaki, Krauss, Lukins, S. Mitchell, W. Mitchell, Nakata, Sanchez, Steiner, Suehiro, Thistle, Wilton, Woolford, and Yoshimoto. Mr. Kazuhiko Ando was elected to membership in the Society. The President appointed Mr. Le Mar Chilson, Chairman; Miss Setsuko Nakata and Mr. Russell Anderson as members of a committee to select the outstanding entomological exhibit at the Third Annual Hawaii Science Fair, and to select an appropriate prize for the winning exhibitor. Mr. Bryan gave an interesting account of his recent trip across the mainland United States, illustrated with colored slides of the entomologists and entomo logical institutions which he visited. Drs. Bess and Carter gave a few remarks on the highlights of the national meetings of the Entomological Society of America, held during December in Detroit, Michigan. Mr. Garth Lukins remarked briefly on his work during the past year in Hawaii where he has been rearing fruit fly parasites for shipment to Australia where they are being released to combat the Queensland fruitfly, Dacus tryoni (Froggatt). Notes and Exhibitions Hoplopleura pacifica Ewing: Mr. Bryan noted that when H. E. Ewing described this sucking louse from Rattus hatvaiiensis (Bishop Museum Bull. 14:9-11, 1924) he commented on its wide distribution; from Rattus concolor in Thailand, R. surdus in N. W. Sumatra, and R. raveni and its subspecies eurous in Celebes. Anthropologists have suggested that this is one more piece of evidence that the Polynesians came from Southeast Asia. Now, Dr. Phyllis T. Johnson [311] 312 Proceedings, Hawaiian Entomological Society (Proc.U.S. Nat. Mus. 110 (3421) :577, 1959) reports that this louse has been found on Rattus rattus ssp. from several provinces of Thailand, and states that H. pacifica is the characteristic louse parasite of R. rattus in Thailand. Coccygomimus punicipes (Cresson): Mr. Fullaway exhibited a female specimen of this ichneumonid wasp which had been reared by Dr. George Butler from a cocoon of the noctuid Catabena esula Druce, found on Ian tan a on Maui in May, 1959. This is a new host record for C. punicipes. Bishop Museum Research Grant: Miss Nakata reported that the Ento mology Department of the Bishop Museum had received a grant of $60,000 from the National Science Foundation for continuation of their project on "Zoogeography and Evolution of Pacific Insects" for a period of approximately three years. February 8, I960 The 650th meeting of the Hawaiian Entomological Society was held at the Experiment Station, HSPA at 2:00 P. M. on Monday, February 8, I960, with President Joyce in the chair. Members present: Anderson, Beardsley, Bess, Bianchi, Burditt, Chock, Chong, Clagg, Davis, Einmo, Ford, Fullaway, Habeck, Hardy, Hinckley, Joyce, Kama- saki, Kim, Look, Nakata, Namba, Ota, Pemberton, D. Rainwater, Sanchez, Sherman, Suehiro, Thistle, Thompson, Toba, Tuthill, Wilton, and Worthington. Visitor: Miss Patricia Golden. Mr. C. F. Clagg reported that the Armed Forces had held their first Joint Training Conference on Pest Control in late January, and that several members of the Society had participated as instructors. Mr. Bianchi presented an informative talk on his recent trip to Brazil and Central America where he searched for natural enemies of scarabaeid beetles which might be used to combat the coconut rhinoceros beetle, Oryctes rhi noceros (L), in the Pacific. Notes and Exhibitions Diaperis lewisi Bates, subspecies near intersecta Gebien: Mr. Ford reported that he had recently received this determination from Mr. T. J. Spilman of the U.S. National Museum for Diaperis specimens from Oahu. A single specimen of this tenebrionid beetle was first collected in Hawaii in 1946 by Dr. Pemberton ("Proceedings" 13:212, 1947),l and was later determined as D. maculatus Olivier by R. E. Blackwelder and reported on by E. C. Zimmerman ("Proceed ings" 13:341, 1948), who stated that D. maculatus is a variable and widespread species. In the past several years a long series of this beetle has been collected here in which there is very little individual variation, and it appears that the 1 Throughout this publication "Proceedings" refers to Proceedings of the Hawaiian Entomological Society. Vol. XVII, No. 3, August, 1961 313 earlier determination of D. maculatus was erroneous. D. lewisi is an Oriental species reported from Japan and Eastern Siberia, whereas D. maculatus occurs in North America. Our species may have been introduced in shipments of dried fungi from Japan, as species of Diaperis are known to feed on such material. Acinopterus angulatus Lawson: Mr. Beardsley exhibited a male specimen of this immigrant cicadellid leafhopper which he had collected on roadside vegetation near Ewa, Oahu, on February 4, I960. This species appears to be established on Oahu, although seemingly quite rare as yet. It was first reported here in August, 1958, from a single female specimen taken in an HSPA light trap at Ewa ("Proceedings" 17(l):20, 1959) and again in August, 1959, by Ford ("Proceedings" 17(2):177, I960). Anacamptodes fragilaria Grosbeck: Mr. Davis reported an outbreak of damage by the larvae of this geometrid moth in the Waianae District of Oahu,. which he observed in company with Mr. Garth Lukins on January 21st. Serious defoliation of Leucaena glauca (L.) was observed in the vicinity of Keaau Beach Park. In some places Leucaena was completely defoliated, and foliage of klu {Acacia farnesiana (L.)), and kiawe (Prosopis chilensis (Mol.) Stuntz) were also damaged. The caterpillars observed appeared to be of the second brood and were in the first to third stadia. Teleonemia scrupulosa Stal: Mr. Bianchi called attention to the fact that the lantana tingid, an American insect purposely introduced, is still feeding and breeding extensively on Myoporum sandtvicense (DC) Gray, a native plant, on the Ewa Coral Plain near Barber's Point. Teleonemia was first reported from Myop orum, at this locality, in 1954 ("Proceedings" 15(3):377, 1955), and it is deemed worthy of record that it can still be found on that host because of the apparent danger that Myoporum will soon disappear from the area in consequence of its development as an industrial site. The Teleonemia-Myoporum relationship seems now well established in other areas of Oahu and on Hawaii, indicating a permanent modification in the habits of Teleonemia. Diploptera dytiscoides (Serville): Mr. Bianchi exhibited branches collected on Kahala Ave., Honolulu, from a croton hedge which had been extensively decorticated, presumably by the cypress cockroach which was found in large numbers in the litter accumulated around the base of the bushes. Although other plants are often damaged in a similar manner by this insect, this appears to be the first record of such damage to crotons. Corythuca morrilli Osborn and Drake: Dr. Hardy reported that during the past month this tingid bug was observed causing rather severe damage to the foliage of Gazania rigens R. Br. at his home in lower Manoa Valley, Honolulu. March 14, I960 The 651st meeting of the Hawaiian Entomological Society was held at the 314 Proceedings, Hawaiian Entomological Society Experiment Station, HSPA, at 2:00 P. M. on Monday, March 14, I960, with President Joyce in the chair. Members present: Anderson, Balock, Beardsley, Bess, Bianchi, Burditt, Chil- son, Chock, Chong, Clagg, Davis, Einmo, Fullaway, Gressitt, Habeck, Hardy, Holloway, Joyce, Kamasaki, Kim, Krauss, Look, S.

Eaton Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair “Exclave: Politics, Ideology, and Everyday Life in Königsberg-Kaliningrad, 1928-1948,” looks at the history of one city in both Hitler’s Germany and Stalin’s Soviet Russia, follow- ing the transformation of Königsberg from an East Prussian city into a Nazi German city, its destruction in the war, and its postwar rebirth as the Soviet Russian city of Kaliningrad. The city is peculiar in the history of Europe as a double exclave, first separated from Germany by the Polish Corridor, later separated from the mainland of Soviet Russia. The dissertation analyzes the ways in which each regime tried to transform the city and its inhabitants, fo- cusing on Nazi and Soviet attempts to reconfigure urban space (the physical and symbolic landscape of the city, its public areas, markets, streets, and buildings); refashion the body (through work, leisure, nutrition, and healthcare); and reconstitute the mind (through vari- ous forms of education and propaganda).

Parasitoid females are known to rely on these important sensory receptors in their antennae to locate and select the host [1-3]. Anagyrus sp. near pseudococci (4) is a solitary endoparasitoid of pest mealybugs (Hemiptera, Pseudococcidae), such as Planococcus ficus (Signoret) and P. citri (Risso) [5]. The females of A. sp. near pseudococci were recently shown to respond to the sex pheromone of P. ficus and use this kairomonal cue in host location [5, 6]. However, little is still known about the antennal receptors that might be involved in the parasitoid host selection behavior. In this study, using SEM (JEOL JSM 5200 LV), we describe the morphology and distribution of sensilla on the antenna of 18 females and 2 males of A. sp. near pseudococci. Eight types of antennal sensilla were found on adult wasps.

  • Post-Presidential Speeches
    Post-Presidential Speeches • Fort Pitt Chapter, Association of the United States Army, May 31, 1961 General Hay, Members of the Fort Pitt Chapter, Association of the United States Army: On June 6, 1944, the United States undertook, on the beaches of Normandy, one of its greatest military adventures on its long history. Twenty-seven years before, another American Army had landed in France with the historic declaration, “Lafayette, we are here.” But on D-Day, unlike the situation in 1917, the armed forces of the United States came not to reinforce an existing Western front, but to establish one. D-Day was a team effort. No service, no single Allied nation could have done the job alone. But it was in the nature of things that the Army should establish the beachhead, from which the over-running of the enemy in Europe would begin. Success, and all that it meant to the rights of free people, depended on the men who advanced across the ground, and by their later advances, rolled back the might of Nazi tyranny. That Army of Liberation was made up of Americans and Britons and Frenchmen, of Hollanders, Belgians, Poles, Norwegians, Danes and Luxembourgers. The American Army, in turn, was composed of Regulars, National Guardsmen, Reservists and Selectees, all of them reflecting the vast panorama of American life. This Army was sustained in the field by the unparalleled industrial genius and might of a free economy, organized by men such as yourselves, joined together voluntarily for the common defense. Beyond the victory achieved by this combined effort lies the equally dramatic fact of achieving Western security by cooperative effort.

  • BUTTERS FAMILY There Were 4 Brothers Who Attended
    BUTTERS FAMILY There were 4 brothers who attended Framlingham between 1888 and 1905 and a couple of them were very prominent racehorse trainers. JOSEPH ARTHUR “FRANK” BUTTERS (1888-95) Frank Butters was Champion Trainer 8 times between 1927 and 1949. In addition to training the winners of 15 Classics in England he also trained Irish Derby winners Turkhan, Nathoo and Hindostan and Prix de L'Arc de Triomphe winner Migoli for the Aga Khan III. Frank Butters was born in Austria, where his father Joseph rode and trained, and became a successful trainer there himself. During the 1914-18 war he was nominally interned, then trained in Italy before being given a 4 year contract as private trainer to the 17th Earl of Derby at Stanley House, Newmarket, becoming leading trainer in his first year there, 1927. When Lord Derby withdrew from racing for economic reasons, Butters leased the Fitzroy Stables in Newmarket as a public trainer. Here he trained for Mr A W Gordon and, later, the Aga Khan III and the 5th Earl of Durham. He considered Bahram to be the best horse he ever trained.

Mills Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-3114, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-510-642-1711 Received: 12 September 2018; Accepted: 29 September 2018; Published: 2 October 2018 Abstract: Importation biological control represents the planned introduction of a specialist natural enemy from the region of origin of an invasive pest or weed. For this study, the author considered why attempts to develop a predictive theory for biological control have been misguided and what future directions might be more promising and effective. Despite considerable interest in the theory of consumer–resource population dynamics, such theory has contributed little to improvements in the success of biological control due to a focus on persistence and equilibrium dynamics rather than establishment and impact. A broader consideration of invasion biology in addition to population ecology offers new opportunities for a more inclusive theory of biological control that incorporates the demographic and genetic processes that more specifically address the establishment and impact of introduced natural enemies. The importance of propagule size and genetic variance for successful establishment, and of contributions to host population growth, relative population growth rates, interaction strength, and coevolution for suppression of host abundance are discussed as promising future directions for a theory of biological control. Keywords: pest; weed; importation; establishment; impact; demography; genetics 1. Introduction Biological control is an ecosystem service in which a pest or weed is effectively controlled through interactions with its natural enemies, and in many cases the natural enemies are insects [1].
