  • A Review of Sampling and Monitoring Methods for Beneficial Arthropods
    insects Review A Review of Sampling and Monitoring Methods for Beneficial Arthropods in Agroecosystems Kenneth W. McCravy Department of Biological Sciences, Western Illinois University, 1 University Circle, Macomb, IL 61455, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-309-298-2160 Received: 12 September 2018; Accepted: 19 November 2018; Published: 23 November 2018 Abstract: Beneficial arthropods provide many important ecosystem services. In agroecosystems, pollination and control of crop pests provide benefits worth billions of dollars annually. Effective sampling and monitoring of these beneficial arthropods is essential for ensuring their short- and long-term viability and effectiveness. There are numerous methods available for sampling beneficial arthropods in a variety of habitats, and these methods can vary in efficiency and effectiveness. In this paper I review active and passive sampling methods for non-Apis bees and arthropod natural enemies of agricultural pests, including methods for sampling flying insects, arthropods on vegetation and in soil and litter environments, and estimation of predation and parasitism rates. Sample sizes, lethal sampling, and the potential usefulness of bycatch are also discussed. Keywords: sampling methodology; bee monitoring; beneficial arthropods; natural enemy monitoring; vane traps; Malaise traps; bowl traps; pitfall traps; insect netting; epigeic arthropod sampling 1. Introduction To sustainably use the Earth’s resources for our benefit, it is essential that we understand the ecology of human-altered systems and the organisms that inhabit them. Agroecosystems include agricultural activities plus living and nonliving components that interact with these activities in a variety of ways. Beneficial arthropods, such as pollinators of crops and natural enemies of arthropod pests and weeds, play important roles in the economic and ecological success of agroecosystems.

Carefree Highway, Phoenix, AZ 85086, USA Abstract.—The spectacular giant anole lizard Anolis insignis is widely distributed but infrequently collected outside of northern Costa Rica. We recently collected several individuals similar to Anolis insignis from localities in Panama and southern Costa Rica. These populations difer from type locality A. insignis in male dewlap color and morphology. We associate one set of these populations with Anolis (Diaphoranolis) brooksi Barbour from Darién, Panama, and describe two additional populations as new species. Keywords.

  • For Submission As a Note Green Anole (Anolis Carolinensis) Eggs
    For submission as a Note Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis) Eggs Associated with Nest Chambers of the Trap Jaw Ant, Odontomachus brunneus Christina L. Kwapich1 1Department of Biological Sciences, University of Massachusetts Lowell One University Ave., Lowell, Massachusetts, USA [email protected] Abstract Vertebrates occasionally deposit eggs in ant nests, but these associations are largely restricted to neotropical fungus farming ants in the tribe Attini. The subterranean chambers of ponerine ants have not previously been reported as nesting sites for squamates. The current study reports the occurrence of Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis) eggs and hatchlings in a nest of the trap jaw ant, Odontomachus brunneus. Hatching rates suggest that O. brunneus nests may be used communally by multiple females, which share spatial resources with another recently introduced Anolis species in their native range. This nesting strategy is placed in the context of known associations between frogs, snakes, legless worm lizards and ants. Introduction Subterranean ant nests are an attractive resource for vertebrates seeking well-defended cavities for their eggs. To access an ant nest, trespassers must work quickly or rely on adaptations that allow them to overcome the strict odor-recognition systems of ants. For example the myrmecophilous frog, Lithodytes lineatus, bears a chemical disguise that permits it to mate and deposit eggs deep inside the nests of the leafcutter ant, Atta cephalotes, without being bitten or harassed. Tadpoles inside nests enjoy the same physical and behavioral protection as the ants’ own brood, in a carefully controlled microclimate (de Lima Barros et al. 2016, Schlüter et al. 2009, Schlüter and Regös 1981, Schlüter and Regös 2005).

    INTRODUCTION TO TROPICAL BIODIVERSITY October 14-22, 2019 Sponsored by the Canopy Family and Naturalist Journeys Participants: Linda, Maria, Andrew, Pete, Ellen, Hsin-Chih, KC and Cathie Guest Scientists: Drs. Carol Simon and Howard Topoff Canopy Guides: Igua Jimenez, Dr. Rosa Quesada, Danilo Rodriguez and Danilo Rodriguez, Jr. Prepared by Carol Simon and Howard Topoff Our group spent four nights in the Panamanian lowlands at the Canopy Tower and another four in cloud forest at the Canopy Lodge. In very different habitats, and at different elevations, conditions were optimal for us to see a great variety of birds, butterflies and other insects and arachnids, frogs, lizards and mammals. In general we were in the field twice a day, and added several night excursions. We also visited cultural centers such as the El Valle Market, an Embera Village, the Miraflores Locks on the Panama Canal and the BioMuseo in Panama City, which celebrates Panamanian biodiversity. The trip was enhanced by almost daily lectures by our guest scientists.

Martinique, January 2020 History of Squamate Lizard Dactyloidae from the Eastern Caribbean Origins of Anolis from Martinique, Zanndoli Matinik (Dactyloa roquet) by Marcel BOURGADE 56 islet of Pointe Marin, 97227 Sainte-Anne, Martinique, Eastern Caribbean [email protected] 1 Summary – The Anolis of Martinique, Zanndoli (in Martinique), the species of reptile lizard Dactyloa roquet represents with the species of amphibian Hylode of Johnstonei, Eleutherodactylus johnstonei, the two species of herpetofauna endemic to the eastern Caribbean, the most widely widespread and present in large numbers throughout the territory of Martinique. The history of the Dactyloidae of the eastern Caribbean that we retrace is based on the most recent data publications, in terms of research in molecular systematics, crossed with the data of the geological history of this geographical region of the Eastern Caribbean.

  • Male Courtship Display in Two Populations of Anolis Heterodermus (Squamata: Dactyloidae) from the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia
    Herpetology Notes, volume 12: 881-884 (2019) (published online on 15 August 2019) Male courtship display in two populations of Anolis heterodermus (Squamata: Dactyloidae) from the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia Iván Beltrán1,2,* and Leidy Alejandra Barragán-Contreras3 Animal displays are generally associated with Anolis heterodermus (Duméril, 1851) is a medium-size territoriality, predator avoidance and courtship arboreal lizard that inhabits shrubs and small trees of high behaviour, in which visual cues transmit a large amount Andean forests in Colombia and Ecuador (Moreno-Arias of information (Alcock and Rubenstein, 1989). Visual and Urbina-Cardona, 2013). Their aggressive and sexual cues can vary in type and frequency depending on behaviour have been described mainly as occasional several factors such as habitat structure, environmental observations in the field and laboratory (Jenssen, 1975; temperature and density of conspecifics (Endler, 1992; Guzmán, 1989; Beltrán, 2019). This species belongs to Candolin, 2003). Visual displays usually convey the heterodermus complex of species from which its information about species identity and/or physiological phylogenetic relations are not well established (Lazell, status of the signaller. Moreover, since an effective 1969; Castañeda and de Queiroz, 2013). Recently, it communication will determine the reproductive was suggested that there are at least three genetically success of the individual and ultimately its fitness, the distinct clades within the complex (Vargas-Ramírez and information must be quickly comprehended by the Moreno-Arias, 2014). However, there is no evidence receiver (Sullivan and Kwiatkowski, 2007). Variations that these genetic differences are backed by behavioural in the signalling pathway constitute a prezygotic changes that could act as a prezygotic barrier.
