    Liste Commentée Des Pentatomoidea De La Manche

    Liste commentée des Pentatomoidea de la Manche Deuxième partie : les Pentatominae Cet article constitue donc le deuxième volet de l’inventaire provisoire des pentatomoïdes de la Manche. Le premier, rappelons-le, paru dans L’Argiope 73 (LIVORY , 2011) traitait les Acanthosomatidae, les Cydnidae, les Thyreocoridae, les Scutelleridae et deux sous-familles de Pentatomidae, les Podopinae et les Asopinae. Nous terminons ce recensement avec la sous-famille des Pentatominae. Avant de poursuivre notre énumération, je voudrais rendre hommage à Jean PÉRI C ART (1928-2011) qui nous a quittés l’année passée. Cet éminent entomologiste avait rédigé la plupart des ouvrages de la Faune de France consacrés aux punaises, soit comme auteur unique soit en tant que co-auteur. Les travaux de PÉRI C ART sur les hétéroptères ont une valeur immense et une portée internationale. Les volumes sur les pentatomoïdes étaient en cours de parution et sur les cinq prévus, seuls deux actuellement ont vu le jour. Nous espérons que la disparition de cet auteur n’empêchera pas la poursuite de cette publication et qu’elle conservera le même niveau scientifique. Sous-famille des Pentatominae Ces punaises possèdent un scutellum triangulaire qui ne dépasse guère en arrière le milieu de l’abdomen, ce qui les distingue nettement des Podopinae. Le rostre est mince et atteint au moins les hanches moyennes. Son premier article est logé dans un sillon qui occupe toute la longueur de la tête. Ce caractère sépare sans ambiguïté les Pentatominae des Asopinae. La 28 Bull. trim. ass.

Packauskas1 Abstract Forty eight species of Pentatomidae are listed as occurring in the state of Kansas, nine of these are new state records. A key to all species known from the state of Kansas is given, along with some notes on new state records. ____________________ The family Pentatomidae, comprised of mainly phytophagous and a few predaceous species, is one of the largest families of Heteroptera. Some of the phytophagous species have a wide host range and this ability may make them the most economically important family among the Heteroptera (Panizzi et al. 2000). As a group, they have been found feeding on cotton, nuts, fruits, veg- etables, legumes, and grain crops (McPherson 1982, McPherson and McPherson 2000, Panizzi et al 2000).

    INSECTS of MICRONESIA Heteroptera: Pentatomoidea1

    INSECTS OF MICRONESIA Heteroptera: Pentatomoidea1 By HERBERT RUCKES RESEARCH ASSOCIATE, DEPARTMENT OF ENTOMOLOGY AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY, NEW YORK EMERlTUS PROFESSOR OF BIOLOGY, CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK INTRODUCTION The Pentatomoidea consists of the families Plataspidae, Cydnidae, Pentatomidae, Acanthosomidae, Phloeidae, Urostylidae, Aphylidae, and Lestoniidae. In this classification I am following the terminology proposed by China and Miller (l955, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. XII, 8: 257-267). Of these various families, representatives of the Phloeidae, Urostylidae, Lestoniidae, and Aphylidae have not, as yet, been recorded from Micronesia. The Phloei­ dae, represented by two genera, are found only in Brazil. The Urostylidae, however, are native to India; China, Japan, Australia, the Philippines, and intermediate islands such as Borneo and Java. It is rather surprising that examples of this family have not been taken from Micronesia since the other pentatomoid fauna of these islands is, for the most part, derived from the nearby Australian, Asian, and adjacent insular regions where the Uro­ stylidae occur. Aphylidae and Lestoniidae are strictly Australian families, each represented by a single genus. The remaining families have varying representation in the Micronesian fauna. I wish to take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to Miss Marjorie Statham, of the technical staff of the Department of Entomology of the American Museum of Natural History, for generously donating her time and ability to make the fine drawings that accompany this report. Her gratuitous services are, indeed, greatly appreciated. Thanks are also extended to Miss Setsuko Nakata, of the Bernice P. Bishop Museum staff, for editing and preparing the typescript of this article for publication.

The effectiveness of the system was studied by tak- ing photos of 165 insect species including some subspecies from museum collections (105 Coleoptera, 11 Hemi ptera (Pentatomidae), 12 Hymenoptera, 10 Lepidoptera, 9 Mantodea, 4 Odonata, 13 Orthoptera, 1 Phasmatodea) and 16 living insect species (1 Lepidoptera, 3 Mantodea, 4 Orthoptera, 8 Phasmato- dea), from which four are exemplarily pictured herein. The system is based on a modifi ed standard consumer DSLR camera (Canon Rebel XSi), which was altered for two-channel colour infrared photography. The camera is especially sensitive in the spectral range of 700-800 nm, which is well- suited to visualize small scale spectral differences in the steep of increase in refl ectance in this range, as it could be seen in some species. Several of the investigated species show at least a partial infrared refl ectance.

    Redactioneel

    REDACTIONEEL Henk Viscaal Alvorens dit redactioneeltje te beginnen wil ik alle leden van Succulenta het allerbeste voor 2006 toewensen. Naast het liefhebber zijn van cactussen en vetplanten, heeft zich bij mij in de loop der tijden een tweede hobby ontwikkeld: fotograferen. Daarom ben ik onlangs lid geworden van een fotoclub. Waar dat nu voor nodig was, werd mij ogenblikkelijk gevraagd. Je maakt toch al van die mooie foto’s. Dat klopt, maar op een gegeven moment krijg je het gevoel dat je op dood spoor zit en niet verder komt. Je bent niet langer tevreden met de resultaten, want je wilt meer. Nu is het grappige van een dergelijke club, dat er heel goed vergelijkingen gemaakt kunnen worden met een vereniging als de onze. Ook hier treffen we een aantal gelijkge- stemde mensen aan die hun hobby optimaal willen bedrijven. Ook hier zie je een willen presteren op een hoger niveau. Frappant hierbij is dat men open en eerlijk praat over de eigen mogelijk- en onmogelijkheden en de wil om de grenzen, op fotografie-gebied, te verleggen. Als lotgenoot leg je dan vooral goed je oor te luisteren en probeert dat op te pikken wat voor jou van belang is om een gesteld doel te bereiken. Dat doel is natuurlijk nog mooiere foto’s te maken. Wanneer je aan alle technische eisen voldoet, zul je in de meeste gevallen een duide- lijke, maar soms steriele afbeelding krijgen. En hier zit hem nu de kneep: je wilt de foto wat extra’s mee geven. Je wilt er een bepaalde sfeer in brengen.

Coombs CSIRO Entomology, 120 Meiers Road, Indooroopilly, Queensland, Australia 4068 [email protected] BACKGROUND DESCRIPTION OF PEST INVASION AND PROBLEM Nezara viridula (L.) is a cosmopolitan pest of fruit, vegetables, and field crops (Todd, 1989). The native geographic range of N. viridula is thought to include Ethiopia, southern Europe, and the Mediterranean region (Hokkanen, 1986; Jones, 1988). Other species in the genus occur in Africa and Asia (Freeman, 1940). First recorded in Australia in 1916, N. viridula soon be- came a widespread and serious pest of most legume crops, curcubits, potatoes, tomatoes, pas- sion fruit, sorghum, sunflower, tobacco, maize, crucifers, spinach, grapes, citrus, rice, and mac- adamia nuts (Hely et al., 1982; Waterhouse and Norris, 1987). In northern Victoria, central New South Wales, and southern Queensland, N. viridula is a serious pest of soybeans and pecans (Clarke, 1992; Coombs, 2000). Immature and adult bugs feed on vegetative buds, devel- oping and mature fruits, and seeds, causing reductions in crop quality and yield. The pest status of N. viridula in Australia is assumed to be partly due to the absence of parasitoids of the nymphs and adults. No native Australian tachinids have been found to parasitize N viridula effectively, although occasional oviposition and development of some species may occur (Cantrell, 1984; Coombs and Khan, 1997). Previous introductions of biological control agents to Australia for control of N. viridula include Trichopoda pennipes (Fabricius) and Trichopoda pilipes (Fabricius) (Diptera: Tachinidae), which are important parasitoids of N.
