  • Terminalia Buceras: Black Olive1 Edward F
    ENH261 Terminalia buceras: Black Olive1 Edward F. Gilman, Dennis G. Watson, Ryan W. Klein, Andrew K. Koeser, Deborah R. Hilbert, and Drew C. McLean2 Introduction Though commonly called `Black olive tree’, this native of the upper Florida Keys (some consider it native, others do not) is not the edible olive we know and love, but does produce a small, black seed-capsule. Black olive is a 40 to 50-foot-tall evergreen tree with a smooth trunk holding up strong, wind-resistant branches, forming a pyramidal shape when young but developing a very dense, full, oval to rounded crown with age. Sometimes the top of the crown will flatten with age, and the tree grows horizontally. The lush, dark green, leathery leaves are two to four inches long and clustered at branch tips, sometimes mixed with the 1/4 to 1 ½-inch-long spines found along the branches. General Information Scientific name: Terminalia buceras Pronunciation: ter-mih-NAIL-ee-uh bew-SER-azz Common name(s): black olive, oxhorn bucida Family: Combretaceae USDA hardiness zones: 10B through 11 (Figure 2) Origin: native to the West Indies Figure 1.

ZooKeys 434: 17–35. doi: 10.3897/ zookeys.434.7308 Abstract Colomerus Newkirk & Keifer, 1971 is an eriophyid genus described by Newkirk and Keifer about 43 years ago, that contains species from all continents, except Antarctica. They live mostly on dicotyledonous plants. Colomerus novahebridensis Keifer, 1977 was described from coconut (Cocos nucifera L., Arecaceae) fruits from Vanuatu. A description of a Thai population of this species is given in this paper.

  • Paratachardina Pseudolobata
    Paratachardina pseudolobata Scientific Name Paratachardina pseudolobata Kondo & Gullan, 2007 Synonyms: None Taxonomic note: The paper by Kondo and Gullan (2007) states that this species has been known mistakenly as Paratachardina lobata in previous literature. Taxonomic work by Kondo and Gullan (2007) described it as a new species, P. pseudolobata. This species was found in Florida in 1999. It was originally identified as Paratachardina lobata Figure 1. Adults and nymphs of lobata by FDACS-DPI personnel and confirmed Paratachardina pseudolobata (Jeffrey W. by USDA-SEL (Howard et al., 2004). Lotz, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Bugwood.org). Common Name(s) Lobate lac scale Type of Pest Scale insect Taxonomic Position Class: Insecta, Order: Hemiptera, Family: Kerriidae Reason for Inclusion Suggestion from CAPS community; previously a CAPS target until it became established in Florida Pest Description Eggs: No description available. This species is ovoviviparous in Florida (Howard et al., 2010). Nymphs: Also called crawlers. “The first instars of the female are elliptical, maroon colored, and about 0.4 mm long” (Howard and Mannion, 2004). 1 Adults: “The adult female is about 2 mm [ /16 in] long and almost as wide, and of a deep maroon color. It does not have functional legs and is immobile, and is secured to the plant surface by a hard cement” (Howard and Mannion, 2004). “As the scale matures, Last update: May 2015 1 individuals tend to merge and may [lose] this distinctive shape. The outer covering is very hard, glossy, and dark reddish-brown…Coloring may appear black because of the coating of sooty mold” (DelValle, 2003).
