GİRİŞ Şehirlerdeki yeşil alanlar havadaki zehirli atıkların doğal filtresi olarak görev yapmalarının yanı sıra yaşama alanlarımızın güzel görünümü açısından da son derece önemlidir. Bu yüzden özellikle son yıllarda şehirlerde yeşillendirme çalışmaları artış göstermektedir. Şehir ekosistemlerinde süs bitkilerinin üretimi ve kullanımı, özellikle kuzey yarım kürede genel bir artış göstermekte ve gelişmiş ülkelerde şehirlerde kişi başına düşen yeşil alanın yedi m2 olması istenmektedir. Dünyadaki bu gelişmelere paralel olarak Ankara’da da yeşillendirme çalışmalarına büyük önem verilmektedir. Ankara’da kişi başına düşen yeşil alan miktarı 6.5 m2 civarındadır (Bozkurt 1992). Şehir ekosistemlerinde en büyük sorun, çevre kirliliğine ilaveten düzensiz ve bilinçsiz ilaçlamalardan dolayı doğal dengenin bozulması ve bu dengenin önemli halkalarından biri olan faydalı faunanın yok olması veya çok azalması nedeni ile zararlı fauna popülasyonunun artmasıdır. Coccoidea üst familyasının da içerisinde bulunduğu emici böceklerde bu durum daha da önemli bir boyut kazanmaktadır (Kozerveskaya, 1986). Özellikle süs bitkilerinin şehir ekosistemlerinde fizyolojik stres altında olmaları ve yeşil aksamlarının hava kirliliğinden dolayı yüksek miktarda kimyasal maddeye maruz kalmalarından dolayı coccoid enfeksiyonlarının artışına neden olmaktadır. Bu nedenle ormanlar gibi dengenin çok fazla bozulmadığı alanlarda bulunan ve nadiren ekonomik olarak önemli olan bu türler, şehir ekosistemlerinde önemli zararlılar olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Aynı sorunlar çok yoğun ve sistematik ilaçlamanın yapıldığı seralarda da görülmektedir. Artan zararlı popülasyonu nedeni ile bu tip zararlıların vermiş oldukları zararlar artmakta, ekonomik kayıplara neden olmaktadır.

Anatomy of male and female reproductive organs of stink bugs pests (Pentatomidae: Heteroptera) from soybean and rice crops. Biota Neotropica 20(4): e20201045. https://doi.org/10.1590/1676-0611-BN-2020-1045 Abstract: Pentatomidae comprises a diverse group of stink bugs widely distributed in the Neotropical region. Many species are phytophagous and cause injuries to plants, and can thus be defined as agricultural pests. In this study, the anatomy of the female and male reproductive tracts of three important agricultural pests in Colombia is described: Piezodorus guildinii Westwood, 1837 and Chinavia ubica Rolston 1983, found on soybeans, and Oebalus insularis Stål, 1872, found in rice crops. For that, light microscopy techniques were used. The anatomy of the reproductive tract of sexually mature males of the three species studied consisted of a pair of testes, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, ejaculatory bulb, an ejaculatory duct that opens into an aedeagus, and paired accessory glands.

  • Scale Insects /Hemiptera, Coccoidea/ As a Source of Natural Dye and Other Useful Substances
    VOL. 15 APHIDS AND OTHER HEMIPTEROUS INSECTS 151±167 Scale insects /Hemiptera, Coccoidea/ as a source of natural dye and other useful substances BOZÇ ENA èAGOWSKA,KATARZYNA GOLAN Department of Entomology, University of Life Sciences KroÂla LeszczynÂskiego 7, 20-069 Lublin, Poland [email protected] [email protected] Abstract For centuries some scale insect species have been used for the production of dye (Porphyrophora polonica, P. hameli, Kermes vermilio, Kerria lacca), wax (Ceroplastes ceriferus, C. irregularis, Ericerus pela), lac and shellac (K. lacca); these hemipterons are also the source of honeydew. Nowadays, some of them (Dactylopius coccus) deliver natural pigment which is used for yoghurt, sweets and soft drinks production. Polish cochineal is considered to be a historical and well-earned species for Poland. During Jagiellonian times it constituted one of the more important factors in national economy contributing to the country's prosperity and the society's well-being. Also today it could be used in many sectors of the eco- nomy, e.g. in food production. One of the factors which makes it more difficult to use species of the Porphyrophora genus in mass production of carmine dye is a too little content of dyeing substance in the bodies of these insects and a too large content of fat (about 30% of body mass) which inhibits the process of fabrics dyeing. An additional, though not less important problem is a remar- kable disappearance of P. polonica and P. hameli which is related with the damage of their natural habitats. The phenomenon of scale insect disappea- rance and the need for its protection was noticed back in the eighteenth cen- tury.

Kermes Scales (Hemiptera: Kermesidae) on Oaks Jay Cee Turner1 , Eileen A. Buss1 and Albert E. Mayfield III2 INTRODUCTION: Kermes scales, or gall-like scales (Hemiptera: Kermesidae), occur as pests of oaks (Quercus spp.) throughout the northern hemisphere. Kermes scales feed by drawing sap from the twigs (and sometimes leaves or petioles) of their hosts, which can result in growth loss, branch dieback, leaf distortion, and the accumulation of sooty mold fungi. In North America and Mexico, there are 32 species of Kermesidae in five genera, but in northeastern North America, there are nine species in four genera (Eriokermes, Nanokermes, Allokermes, and Kermes) (Bullington and Kosztarab 1985). There are five Allokermes spp. in Florida: A. cueroensis (Cockerell), A. galliformis (Riley), A. gillettei (Cockerell), A. kingii (Cockerell), and A. kosztarabi (Baer). Of these, only A. cueroensis, A. galliformis and A. kingii are of economic importance. IDENTIFICATION: Crawlers: First instars or “crawlers” of Allokermes spp. are minute (0.4 mm long), oblong, salmon-colored and wingless with well-developed legs and antennae (Fig. 1). Males: Second instar males cover themselves with a white waxy test (Fig. 2) on the tree stem.
