Entomol. 107(5): 1959Ð1964 (2014); DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1603/EC13279 ABSTRACT Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) is a highly destructive invasive leafminer pest currently causing extensive damage to vegetable and horticultural crops around the world. Liriomyza langei Frick is a leafminer pest native to California that cannot currently be morphologically distin- guished from L. huidobrensis. We used a DNA-barcoding approach, a published PCR-RFLP method, and a new multiplex PCR method to analyze 664 ßies matching the morphological description of huidobrensisÐlangei. We found no evidence for the presence of L. huidobrensis in our extensive samples from California. In addition to the new molecular method, this work is important because it provides deÞnitive data that the California “pea leafminer” is currently, and has probably always been, L. langei. These data will also be important in the event that the highly invasive L. -
California Pea Leafminer, Liriomyza Langei (Diptera: Agromyzidae)
DACS-P-01666 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry Charles H. Bronson, Commissioner of Agriculture California Pea Leafminer, Liriomyza langei (Diptera: Agromyzidae) Gary J. Steck, [email protected], Taxonomic Entomologist, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry W. N. Dixon, [email protected], Bureau Chief, Entomology, Nematology and Plant Pathology, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry Liriomyza langei Frick is a dipteran (Agromyzidae) leaf miner (Fig. 1) that is considered a pest of economic importance in California. (http://www.doacs.state.fl.us/pi/enpp/ento/entcirc/ent378.pdf). Affected crops include field and glasshouse- grown vegetables and flowers. In Salinas Valley of Monterey Co., CA, “This insect has gone from a sporadic fall pest, relatively easily controlled, to a pest throughout most of the vegetable growing season that is essentially not able to be controlled in many crops. This is at least partly due to evolution of insecticide resistance; changes in tillage practices may also have contributed to the problem. Lettuce is the worst affected crop, but nearly all of the fresh vegetables grown in the area are hosts for this leafminer” (Chaney 1995). Other vegetable crops suffering severe economic loss include celery (Apium graveolens) and garden pea (Pisum sativum); floral crops include baby’s breath (Gypsophila paniculata), Chrsysanthemum, and Aster. BIOLOGY: Females puncture leaves to feed on plant sap and lay eggs within the leaf tissues. The eggs hatch after two to four days and larvae feed between the upper and lower surface of the leaves, making distinctive winding, whitish tunnels or mines that are often the first clue that leaf miners are present. -

Importation of Fresh Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), Shelled or in Pods, from Jordan into the Continental United States A Qualitative, Pathway-Initiated Risk Assessment February 14, 2011 Version 2 Agency Contact: Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Center for Plant Health Science and Technology United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Plant Protection and Quarantine 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Pest Risk Assessment for Beans from Jordan Executive Summary In this risk assessment we examined the risks associated with the importation of fresh beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), in pods (French, green, snap, and string beans) or shelled, from the Kingdom of Jordan into the continental United States. We developed a list of pests associated with beans (in any country) that occur in Jordan on any host based on scientific literature, previous commodity risk assessments, records of intercepted pests at ports-of-entry, and information from experts on bean production. This is a qualitative risk assessment, as we express estimates of risk in descriptive terms (High, Medium, and Low) rather than numerically in probabilities or frequencies. We identified seven quarantine pests likely to follow the pathway of introduction. We estimated Consequences of Introduction by assessing five elements that reflect the biology and ecology of the pests: climate-host interaction, host range, dispersal potential, economic impact, and environmental impact. We estimated Likelihood of Introduction values by considering both the quantity of the commodity imported annually and the potential for pest introduction and establishment. We summed the Consequences of Introduction and Likelihood of Introduction values to estimate overall Pest Risk Potentials, which describe risk in the absence of mitigation. -

In: Kahanpää J, Salmela J (Eds) Checklist of the Diptera of Finland. ZooKeys 441: 291–303. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.441.7586 Abstract A checklist of the Agromyzidae (Diptera) recorded from Finland is presented. 279 (or 280) species are currently known from the country. Phytomyza linguae Lundqvist, 1947 is recorded as new to Finland. Keywords Checklist, Finland, Diptera, biodiversity, faunistics Introduction The Agromyzidae are called the leaf-miner or leaf-mining flies and not without reason, although a substantial fraction of the species feed as larvae on other parts of living plants. While Agromyzidae is traditionally placed in the superfamily Opomyzoidea, its exact relationships with other acalyptrate Diptera are poorly understood (see for example Winkler et al. 2010). Two subfamilies are recognised within the leaf-mining flies: Agromyzinae and Phytomyzinae. Both are now recognised as natural groups (Dempewolf 2005, Scheffer et al. 2007). Unfortunately the genera are not as well defined: at least Ophiomyia, Phy- toliriomyza and Aulagromyza are paraphyletic in DNA sequence analyses (see Scheffer et al. -
Studies on the Parasitoids of the Serpentine Leaf Miner, Liriomyza Trifolii (Burgess) in Tomato Ecosystem Under Mid Hill Condition of Himachal Pradesh

L. SHARMA, U*, CHAUHAN, P. R. GUPTA, K. C. SHARMA and S. P. VERMA Department of Entomology and Apiculture, Dr Y S Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan (HP) India 173 230 * Corresponding author E mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The species diversity of parasitoids of the serpentine leaf miner, Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) in tomato ecosystem was conducted under mid hill conditions of Himachal Pradesh during 2008-2010. The tomato leaves were collected periodically from June to September from three strata i.e. bottom, middle and top portion of the plants at random. During the course of study four species of larval parasitoids viz., Neochrysocharis formosa (Westwood), Diglyphus sp., Asecodes sp. and Chrysocharis sp. belonging to the family Eulophidae and one species of larval-pupal parasitoid, Opius sp. belonging to the family Braconidae were identified. These parasitoids were active throughout the cropping season and the parasitization ranged from 6.0 – 21.1, 19.4 – 28.6 and 13.6 – 23.1 per cent during 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. It was maximum (20.1 – 28.6%) during the month of August. Marginally higher parasitization (14.3 – 26.7%) was observed in the middle stratum of the foliage than in top (11.1 – 24.0%) or bottom (6.7 – 20.0%) stratum during all the three years of study. Among the larval parasitoids, N. -
Diptera: Agromyzidae) Inferred from Sequence Data from Multiple Genes

The systematics of agromyzids has remained poorly known due to their small size and morphological homogeneity. We investigated the phylogenetic relationships among genera within the Agromyzidae using parsimony and Bayesian anal- yses of 2965 bp of DNA sequence data from the mitochondrial COI gene, the nuclear ribosomal 28S gene, and the single copy nuclear CAD gene. We included 86 species in 21 genera, including all but a few small genera, and spanning the diversity within the family. The results from parsimony and Bayesian analyses were largely similar, with major groupings of genera in common. SpeciWcally, both analy- ses recovered a monophyletic Phytomyzinae and a monophyletic Agromyzinae. Within the subfamilies, genera found to be monophyletic given our sampling include Agromyza, Amauromyza, Calycomyza, Cerodontha, Liriomyza, Melanagromyza, Metopomyza, Nemorimyza, Phytobia, and Pseudonapomyza. Several genera were found to be polyphyletic or paraphyletic including Aulagromyza, Chromatomyia, Phytoliriomyza, Phytomyza, and Ophiomyia. -
Request for Comments on Regulatory Options for Pea Leaf Miner
FOR INFORMATION AND ACTION DA-2008-76 December 19, 2008 SUBJECT: Request for Comments on Regulatory Options for Pea Leaf Miner TO: STATE AND TERRITORY AGRICULTURAL REGULATORY OFFICIALS The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is soliciting your comments to help us determine options for the continued regulation of Liriomyza huidobrensis, commonly known as pea leaf miner. Pea leaf miner is an exotic, highly polyphagous leaf miner capable of inflicting severe damage to crops such as field- and glasshouse-grown vegetables and flowers. Pea leaf miner is a mining fly of the insect family Agromyzidae. Pea leaf miner can be found in Asia, Africa, Central and South America, Europe, the Middle East, and Oceania. This fly was also considered to be present in the States of California, Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington. However, there is now evidence that the fly in the United States previously believed to be pea leaf miner is not Liriomyza huidobrensis. Research has identified the fly present in the United States as Liriomyza langei. The fly was differentiated by molecular diagnosis from pea leaf miner but is morphologically almost identical. This research is summarized in the attached Center for Plant Health Science and Technology (CPHST) report entitled, “Is Liriomyza langei a real species or a biotype of L. huidobrensis?”. For regulatory purposes, APHIS believes that pea leaf miner and L. langei can be considered different species and distinct taxa. However, we recognize that we should not regulate one fly and not the other without scientific evidence indicating biological differences affecting pest character between species so taxonomically similar. -

Given the substantial economic losses associated with various aspects of Liriomyza feeding as well as the ability of these insects to rapidly develop resistance to insecticides, researchers from many countries have attempted to use bio- logical control to manage these pests. Unfortunately, progress on the science and implementation of effective Liriomyza biological control is hampered by the literature being scattered widely and in many different languages. A primary goal of this review is to consolidate the available infor- mation and provide an analysis of the published work. -
Diversity of the Arthropod Fauna in Organically Grown Garlic Intercropped with Fodder Radish
Revista Brasileira de Agroecologia Rev.

The objective of this research was to verify the effect of the association of garlic with fodder radish on richness, abundance and diversity of arthropods under organic production system in Lavras, MG, Brazil. The treatments were composed of garlic in monoculture and garlic in association with fodder radish, in plots of 40 garlic plants, intercropped or not with two lines of fodder radish. Weekly, 25 samples were collected for a period of 10 weeks (n=250). Species accumulation curves, species richness, abundance, and diversity index were determined, and T or Mann-Whitney tests were used for analysis. The 250 samples collected were sufficient to register the majority of species present in garlic. Richness and abundance were higher in diversified garlic whereas diversity was higher in monoculture. Diversified system increased the overall richness of phytophagous species and parasitoids. The abundance of T. tabaci decreased, while increased the presence of A.
