A diagnosis, a redescription of the genus, and a key to all species are given. Four known species, O. separata Broun, O. simplicicollis Broun, O. hirta (Fabricius) and O. plicicollis Sharp, are redescribed and photographs of dorsal views of both sexes are provided. Terminalia of both sexes are illustrated and described for the first time. The Australian Lord Howe Island species, O. simplex White, is transferred from the genus Oemona to Ceresium Newman, and C. procerum Olliff is synonymised with O. simplex. Oemona occurs in both North and South Islands of New Zealand. The phylogenetic analysis sug- gests that Oemona be divided into two species groups, separata-group and hirta-group.

EPPO Categorization: A1 list more photos... view more categorizations online... EU Categorization: A1 Quarantine pest (Annex II A) EPPO Code: OEMOHI Notes on taxonomy and nomenclature Lu & Wang (2005) revised the genus Oemona, which has 4 species: O. hirta, O. plicicollis, O. separata and O. simplicicollis. They provided an identification key to species and detailed descriptions. They also performed a phylogenetic analysis of all species, suggesting that O. hirta and O. plicicollis are sister species and most similar morphologically. HOSTS O. hirta is a highly polyphagous longhorn beetle. Its larvae feed on over 200 species of trees and shrubs from 63 (Lu & Wang, 2005; Wang, 2017) to 81 (EPPO, 2014) families. Its original hosts were native New Zealand plants, but it expanded its host range to many species exotic to New Zealand, ranging from major fruit, nut, forest and ornamental trees to shrubs and grapevines. Host list: Acacia dealbata, Acacia decurrens, Acacia floribunda, Acacia longifolia, Acacia melanoxylon, Acacia pycnantha, Acer pseudoplatanus, Acer sp., Aesculus hippocastanum, Agathis australis, Albizia julibrissin, Alectryon excelsus, Alnus glutinosa, Alnus incana, Aristotelia serrata, Asparagus setaceus, Avicennia marina, Avicennia resinifera, Azara sp., Betula nigra, Betula pendula, Betula sp., Brachyglottis greyi, Brachyglottis repanda, Brachyglottis rotundifolia, Buddleia davidii, Camellia sp., Carmichaelia australis, Casimiroa edulis, Cassinia leptophylla, Cassinia retorta, Castanea sativa, Casuarina cunninghamiana, Casuarina sp., Celtis australis, Cestrum elegans, Chamaecyparis sp., Chamaecytisus prolifer subsp.

ARTHROPODA Subphylum Hexapoda Protura, Springtails, Diplura, and Insects

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000).

APP202396: to Release the Honeysuckle Stem-Boring Beetle
Staff Assessment Report APP202396: to release the honeysuckle stem-boring beetle May 2015 Purpose An application to introduce the honeysuckle stem borer (Oberea shirahatai) as a biocontrol agent for the weed Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) Application number APP202396 Application type To obtain approval to release new organisms Applicant Hawke’s Bay Regional Council Date formally received 17 February 2015 2 EPA advice for application APP202396 Executive Summary and Recommendation In February 2015, Hawke’s Bay Regional Council made an application to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) seeking to introduce the honeysuckle stem-boring beetle (Oberea shirahatai) as a biological control agent for the weed Japanese honeysuckle (Loncera japonica). We examined the beneficial and adverse effects to the environment and market economy in addition to the effects on Māori and their relationship to the environment in our assessment of the application. The applicant presented evidence to show that the honeysuckle stem-boring beetle will not attack native species based on taxonomic analysis, and will not preferentially feed and successfully complete life cycles on ornamental and valued exotic honeysuckle species in host range testing. We consider that the introduction of the honeysuckle stem-boring beetle will not have any adverse effects on native species or on plant species that are valuable to the nursery and garden industry in New Zealand. We note that reductions in vegetative mass of the weed, due to the activity of the honeysuckle stem-boring beetle, will lead to the re-establishment of native populations and ecological processes, and suppress the spread of Japanese honeysuckle. As a result, we note that it is likely that control of Japanese honeysuckle will lead to improved biodiversity and conservation values.

Parasitic Natural Enemies of Lemon Tree Borer Q. Wang
Horticultural Pests 60 PARASITIC NATURAL ENEMIES OF LEMON TREE BORER Q. WANG and G. L. SHI1 Plant Protection, Institute of Natural Resources, Massey University, Private Bag 11122, Palmerston North 1Current address: Department of Plant Protection, Shanxi Agricultural University, Taigu County 030801, Shanxi, PRC ABSTRACT In 1997 and 1998, a survey for natural enemies of the lemon tree borer, Oemona hirta (Fabricius), was conducted in the North Island of New Zealand. Citrus twigs with sign of lemon tree borer damage were collected in three locations (Gisborne, Kerikeri and Palmerston North). Two ichneumonid species [Xanthocryptus novozealandicus (Dalla Torre) and Campoplex sp.] and one braconid species (Apsicolpus hudsoni Turner) were recorded attacking larvae of lemon tree borer. X. novozealandicus attacked late instar larvae in shallow galleries and A. hudsoni and Campoplex sp. consumed early to middle instar larvae in deep galleries. Females of all three species laid female-producing eggs on larger host larvae. The overall parasitism rate for all three species was < 5% while the parasitism rate in a Gisborne orchard where no spraying had been conducted in the past five years was much higher: 29.5%, 18.2% and 6.8% for X. novozealandicus, Campoplex sp. and A. hudsoni, respectively. Keywords: Cerambycidae, Oemona hirta, parasitoids, Xanthocryptus novozealandicus, Apsicolpus hudsoni, Campoplex. INTRODUCTION The lemon tree borer, Oemona hirta (Fabricius), is a native longicorn beetle in New Zealand. It has now become a pest of many introduced crops including citrus, apple, persimmon, grape, etc. and shelter belt trees, such as poplar (Miller 1925; Hudson 1934; Dumbleton 1937; Clearwater 1981; Spiller and Wise 1982; Rohitha et al.
