Beitr. 46/1 5-220 31.7.2014 A catalogue of the Braconidae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonoidea) of the Malagasy subregion1 M. MADL & C. VAN ACHTERBERG A b s t r a c t : We have catalogued 164 genera of the family Braconidae containing 577 species and three subspecies excluding unnamed species. In addition ten species are classified as species incertae sedis. Several taxonomical changes are proposed. Coleopoides VAN ACHTERBERG & LI 2013 is a replacement name for the genus Bitomus SZÉPLIGETI 1910. New replacement names are proposed for following species: Camptothlipsis tricolor GRANGER 1949 = Therophilus vizekae MADL & VAN ACHTERBERG new name, Phaenocarpa bicolor GRANGER 1949 = Phaenocarpa manuelae MADL & VAN ACHTERBERG new name and Dinocampus luteus SZÉPLIGETI 1914 = Perilitus luteoides MADL & VAN ACHTERBERG new name. K e y w o r d s : Braconidae, catalogue, taxonomy, Malagasy subregion Introduction The worldwide distributed family Braconidae contains more than 2600 species in the Afrotropical region (YU et al. 2013). Braconidae are parasitoids of several insect orders, e.g. Coleoptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, Orthoptera. As many hosts are of economic importance, often Braconidae are used in biological control programs or have a high potential for it. It is necessary to remark, that the term variation is used in the sense of subspecies in all volumes of "Hymenopterorum Catalogus (nova editio)" and in GRANGER (1949). How to use the catalogue The systematic part of the catalogue is organized alphabetically. Subgenera are in brack- ets. Synonyms, misidentifications and identifications to genus level are marked with an asterisk (*) and printing errors with (!). Identifications to genus level are only mentioned, if the material has been identified to species later, or the record is new to the subregion or to an island. Papers, in which identifications to genus level are mentioned, are cited in references of that subfamily in any case. Only genera described from the Malagasy 1 This paper is dedicated to Maximilian Fischer on the occasion of his 85th birthday thanking for fruitful co-operation over many years. © Biologiezentrum Linz/Austria; download unter www.biologiezentrum.at 6 subregion are mentioned under synonyms of that genus and the number of valid species is also restricted to the Malagasy subregion. The term, e.g. (Mauritius, cat. Mauritius), means, that the catalogue is restricted to Mauritius and a record from Mauritius is cited. As the countries of the Malagasy subregion consists of several islands or island groups, they are listed under the name of the country, e.g. Mauritius: Mauritius, Rodrigues. The islands belonging to France are cited under Réunion except Mayotte. The known records from Madagascar including islands are listed province by province from North to South and old names are in brackets. At the end of each subfamily is the chapter references. For a bibliography of the whole family see YU et al. (2013).

Janzena,1 and Winnie Hallwachsa Edited by David L. Wagner, University of Connecticut, and accepted by Editorial Board Member May R. Berenbaum November 11, 2020 (received for review April 6, 2020) We have been field observers of tropical insects on four continents and, since 1978, intense observers of caterpillars, their parasites, and their associates in the 1,260 km2 of dry, cloud, and rain forests of Area´ de Conservaci ´onGuanacaste (ACG) in northwestern Costa Rica. ACG’s natural ecosystem restoration began with its national park designation in 1971. As human biomonitors, or “insectometers,” we see that ACG’s insect species richness and density have gradually declined since the late 1970s, and more intensely since about 2005. The overarching perturbation is climate change. It has caused increasing ambient tempera- tures for all ecosystems; more erratic seasonal cues; reduced, erratic, and asynchronous rainfall; heated air masses sliding up the volcanoes and burning off the cloud forest; and dwindling biodiversity in all ACG terrestrial ecosystems. What then is the next step as climate change descends on ACG’s many small-scale successes in sustainable biodevelopment? Be kind to the survivors by stimulating and facilitating their owner societies to value them as legitimate members of a green sustainable nation.

  • Biodiversa-Project Description-Final Version-110213
    1.A. Detailed description of the research area and research plan Context of the proposal Biological invasions (bioinvasions) are defined as the successful establishment and spread of species outside their native range. They act as a major driver of global changes in species distribution. Diverse organisms and ecosystems may be involved, and although not all invasions have a negative impact, the ecological consequences often include the loss of native biological diversity and changes in community structure and ecosystem activity. There may also be additional negative effects on agriculture, forests, fisheries, and human health. National governments, intergovernmental structures like the European Commission and international organizations such as EPPO, CABI and IUCN have therefore mobilized to (i) introduce international laws on invasive species, (ii) organize international networks of scientists and stakeholders to study bioinvasions, and (iii) formalize the cooperation between national environmental or agricultural protection agencies (e.g. the French Agence Nationale de Sécurité Sanitaire, ANSES). Several billion euros are spent annually to address the problems caused by bioinvasions and the scientific community has focused on predicting and controlling future invasions by understanding how they occur. A peer-reviewed journal entitled "Biological Invasions” has been published since 1999. Ecologists have long drawn attention to the negative ecological effects of invasive species, whereas the evolutionary aspects of bioinvasions have received comparatively little attention. This reflects the fact that: i) invasive populations were thought to experience significant bottlenecks during their introduction to new environments and thus possess a limited potential to evolve; and ii) evolution was considered too slow to play a significant role given the relatively short timescale of the invasion process.

  • Identification Key to the Subfamilies of Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera)
    Identification key to the subfamilies of Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) Gavin Broad Dept. of Entomology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, UK Notes on the key, February 2011 This key to ichneumonid subfamilies should be regarded as a test version and feedback will be much appreciated (emails to [email protected]). Many of the illustrations are provisional and more characters need to be illustrated, which is a work in progress. Many of the scanning electron micrographs were taken by Sondra Ward for Ian Gauld’s series of volumes on the Ichneumonidae of Costa Rica. Many of the line drawings are by Mike Fitton. I am grateful to Pelle Magnusson for the photographs of Brachycyrtus ornatus and for his suggestion as to where to include this subfamily in the key. Other illustrations are my own work. Morphological terminology mostly follows Fitton et al. (1988). A comprehensively illustrated list of morphological terms employed here is in development. In lateral views, the anterior (head) end of the wasp is to the left and in dorsal or ventral images, the anterior (head) end is uppermost. There are a few exceptions (indicated in figure legends) and these will rectified soon. Identifying ichneumonids Identifying ichneumonids can be a daunting process, with about 2,400 species in Britain and Ireland. These are currently classified into 32 subfamilies (there are a few more extralimitally). Rather few of these subfamilies are reconisable on the basis of simple morphological character states, rather, they tend to be reconisable on combinations of characters that occur convergently and in different permutations across various groups of ichneumonids.

ABSTRACT. A study was made of Aleiodes species recorded in Mexico, and specimens deposited in various collections. Using the criteria of Portier and Shaw (1999), eight species groups were recognized from Mexico, with 21 described and 27 undescribed species recorded. These are first records in Mexico for A. earinos Shaw, A. graphicus (Cresson), A. notozophus Marsh and Shaw andA. politiceps (Gahan). The genus is widely distributed in Mexico, being present in 28 of 31 states. Results are discussed in relation to the richness patterns hypotheses of other authors.

  • Using the Larval Parasitoid, Agathis Bishopi (Nixon) (Hymenoptera
    Using the larval parasitoid, Agathis bishopi (Nixon) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), for early detection of False Codling Moth, Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) infested fruit Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE at RHODES UNIVERSITY by Kennedy Josaya Zimba December 2014 Abstract Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is one of the major citrus pests of economic importance for South Africa’s citrus industry. It is endemic to Africa, and therefore a phytosanitary pest with zero tolerance by most export markets. The cryptic nature of T. leucotreta makes visual inspection an inefficient method for detecting neonate larvae in fruit in the packhouse. Therefore, a more accurate method for sorting infested fruit at the packhouse, particularly for newly infested fruit could ensure market access. A recent study showed that fruit infested by T. leucotreta emit a chemical profile different from that of a healthy fruit. Several studies provide evidence that parasitoids locate their hosts feeding on fruit by exploiting the novel chemical profiles produced due to host herbivory. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of using the naturally occurring behaviour of a larval parasitoid Agathis bishopi (Nixon) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) for detection of T. leucotreta infested fruit, by determining which compound in infested fruit is attractive to parasitoids. Y- tube olfactometer and flight-tunnel bioassays with healthy and T. leucotreta infested fruit showed a significantly stronger response of A. bishopi female parasitoids to infested fruit. Among the volatile compounds associated with T. leucotreta infested fruit, D-limonene elicited the strongest attraction to A. bishopi female parasitoids.
