Riceyello w mottle virus (RYMV) is the causal pathogen of yellow mottle of rice in the area around Kisumu near Lake Victoria in Kenya. Affected plants show a yellow or orange discolouration of the leaves, reduced tillering and stunting of the plants, and sterility of the flowers. The results of this study gave the following cryptogram for RYMV: R/1:1.4/23:S/S:S/C1. RYMV is easily mechanically transmissible. Experimentally a limited number of plants belonging to the family Gramineae only were found to be a host for the virus. Rice was the only host found naturally infected with RYMV.

Insect Pests of Economic Importance on Cereal Crops in the Senegal River Basin, West Africa
AN ABSTRACT- OF THE THESIS OF Adama Sy for the degree ofMaster of Science in Entomology presented on June 10, 1977 Title: INSECT PESTS OF ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE ON CEREAL CROPS IN THE SENEGAL RIVER BASIN, WEST AFRICA Redacted for Privacy_ Abstract approved R. E. Berrybnd J. P. iattin Cereal crops cultivated in Mali, Mauritania and Senegal consist primarily of sorghum, millet, rice and maize. They form the gramin- eous crops that, are programmed for the agricultural improvementof the Senegal River Basin. Twelve economically important insect pests on these crops were selected for study and treated with regard to their potential hazard to crop production. The selection of these insect pests was based on entomological investigations carried out in Senegal, Mali and the Senegal River Valley. Information was gathered from similar ecological areas in the Paleotropic region. The following insect pests were selected: Diptera: Atherigona spp (Muscidae), Contarinia sorghicola (Coquillet) (Cecidomyiidae) and Orseolia oryzae (Wood-Mason) (Cecidomyiidae); Lepidoptera: Acigona ignefusalis (Hampson), Chilo zacconius Bleszynski, Maliarpha separa- tella Ragonot (Pyralidae), Heliothis armigera (Hubner), Sesamia calamistis Hampson, Spodoptera exempta (Walker) and Spodoptera littoralis (Boisduval) (Noctuidae); and Orthoptera: Locusta migra- toria migratorioides (Reiche and Fairmaire) and Schistocerca americana gregaria (Forskal) (Acrididae). Information pertaining to the identi- fication, distribution, host-plants, biology and control strategies, including agronomical and mechanical controls, varietal resistance, biological control and chemical control are presented for each pest. The physical environment in the Senegal River Basin and agricultural production of the Senegal River Valley are described. An overall assessment of the pest complex of cereal crops is given and the pre- sent status of insect pest control in the Senegal River Basin is discussed. -

E-mail: [email protected] I. INTRODUCTION The number of genera of Tortricidae has increased dramatically over last 40 years; by 2007 there were over 1630 described genera, including synonyms. Many of the older de- scriptions are scattered throughout the literature, and because there are few larger synthetic treatments of the tortricids for most major biogeographic regions, this large number of taxa complicates considerably the work of taxonomists on the faunas of poorly known regions of the planet. In addition, characters that define many of the genera are not clearly articu- lated. The distribution of many genera is still insufficiently known, and this shortcoming frequently results in unexpected findings, e.g., the discovery of Afrotropical genera in the Neotropics. -

A REVISION OF THE OLD WORLD SPECIES OF THE SCIRPOPHAGA COMPLEX (LEPIDOPTERA: PYRALIDAE) A Taxonomic and Zoogeographic Study, with a Discussion on their Affinities by ANGOON LEWUANICH B Sc (Bangkok) A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Science of the University of London Department of Zoology and Applied Entomology Imperial College of Science and Technology South Kensington, London S W 7 2 AZ December, 1971 . 2 ABSTRACT The genus Scirpophaga is revised; the identity of each species studied is based on type material. The main characters used for separating the species are the genitalia. Thirty-five species belonging to seven species-groups are recognized. One genus and thirteen species are newly placed in synonymy. S. excerptalis is reinstated from synonymy. Ten species are transferred to Scirpophaga. S. praelata var xanthopygata Schawerda is raised to specific rank. One neotype for S. virginia Schultze and lectotypes for eight species are designated. Five species are described as new. The main characters of the Schoenobiinae and the general morphology of Scirpophaga are given. The zoogeography of the group is briefly discussed and a distribution map of each species is included. 3 CONTENTS Page ACKNOWLEDGEMENT 4 6 INTRODUCTION 10 MATERIALS AND METHODS 12 TAXOMIC HISTORY OF THE GENUS SCIRPOPHAGA 22 THE MAIN CHARACTERS OF SCHOENOBIINAE 4 4 444 27 THE GENERAL MORPHOLOGY OF THE SCIRPOPHAGA COMPLEX 34 BIOLOGY AND ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE 40 ZOOGEOGRAPHY OF THE SCIRPOPHAGA COMPLEX Genus SCIRPOPHAGA 62 Key to the species-groups 64 Species-Group PRAELATA 67 Key to species of praelata group 69 S. -

Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) and Its Species
POLISH JOURNAL OF ENTOMOLOGY POLSKIE P I S M O ENTOMOLOGICZNE VOL. 78 : 33-57 Bydgoszcz 30 March 2009 Oriental Arotrophora MEYRICK (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) and its species JÓZEF RAZOWSKI Institute of Systematics and Evolution of Animals PAS, Sławkowska 17, 31-016 Kraków, Poland, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Arotrophora M EYRICK known as far from 10 Australian species is recorded from the Oriental region. Tortrix semifulva MEYRICK is transferred from Tortrix auct. to Arotrophora and 16 other species are described as new in this genus: Arotrophora hongsona sp.n., A. khasiasana sp.n., A. khatana sp.n., A. charassapex sp. n., A. paiana sp. n., A. khunmaei sp. n., A. cherrapunji sp.n., A. inthanona sp.n., A. gilligani sp. n., A. charopa sp. n., A. kudasanga sp. n., A. obrimsocia sp. n., A. bernardmyo sp. n., A. utarana sp. n. from the Oriental region, and A. fijigena sp. n., A. tubulosa sp. n. from Fiji. The systematic position of Archigraptis M EYRICK is proposed and the the Austra- lian "Cnephasiini" is reconsidered. KEY WORDS: Tortricidae, Tortricinae, Arotrophora , new species, Oriental region, Fiji. INTRODUCTION Arotrophora was erected by M EYRICK as a composite grouping. Then C OMMON (1963) revised this genus and preserved in it only three MEYRICK 's species. He finally included in it nine known species, described two new species, and placed this genus in Cnephasiini. HORAK & al. (1996) also included in this genus nine species and referred them to Cnephasi- ini s. lat. and B ROWN (2005) ten species in "Tortricinae: New Tribe 1".
