Finally, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my family for their loving support. iv Dedications To my daughter Mia To my family To my friends And In loving memory of, Agnes Shogren v ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Myoporum Thrips Life History, Host Preference, and Biological Control by Christopher John Shogren Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Program in Entomology University of California, Riverside, December 2017 Dr. Timothy D. Paine, Chairperson Temperature-driven development of myoporum thrips, Klambothrips myopori, (Thysanopetra: Phlaeothripidae) was examined at seven constant temperatures (15°, 17°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 34°, and 35.5° C) on Myoporum laetum. Thrips successfully completed development to adult stage between 15 and 35.5°C. One linear and three nonlinear models were fitted to describe developmental rates of K. myopori as a function of temperature, and for estimating thermal constants and bioclimatic thresholds (Tmin, Topt and Tmax). The Briere-1 model performed best in describing the developmental rate of cumulative life stages. Two ecological niche models, CLIMEX and Maxent, were used to predict the geographic distribution of K. myopori in its native range and globally. Overall predictions of environmental suitability differed greatly across models. The CLIMEX model accurately predicted known invasive and native localities, while the Maxent model failed to predict vi the native localities and parts of the invasive range. Based on the CLIMEX model, K. myopori has the potential to establish in many regions of the globe. Using field studies and laboratory feeding tests, we identified Myoporum laetum and M. ‘Pacificum’ as key host plants of K. myopori. In laboratory trials, K. myopori failed to complete development on M. ‘Clean n Green’ and M. ‘Putah Creek’. For the six varieties of Myoporum tested, K. myopori damage was only observed on M. laetum and M. ‘Pacificum’. Although K. myopori can successfully colonize and reproduce on several varieties of Myoporum, they demonstrated a preference for M. laetum and M. ‘Pacificum’ in laboratory and field trials. Using field and laboratory studies, we identified Orius spp. (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae), Chrysoperla spp. (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae), Syrphidae, and Salticidae as possible key natural enemies of K. myopori in southern California. Laboratory studies determined the consumption rates of Orius insidiosus and Chrysoperla rufilabris at constant densities of K. myopori and defined the functional response of the predators. Both predators consumed more 2nd instar larvae than other prey stages. O. insidious displayed a type II functional response, while C. rufilabris displayed both type II and type III depending on prey stage, implying the predators should be most effective at suppressing thrips populations at lower densities. vii Table of Contents Acknowledgements……………………………………………………………….iv Dedications………………………………………………………………………..v Abstract of the Dissertation………………………………………………………vi List of Tables……………………………………………………………………...x List of Figures…………………………………………………………………....xii Chapter 1.

    Systematic Entomology (2006), 31, 529–564 DOI: 10.1111/j.1365-3113.2006.00334.x Phylogeny of the Polysphincta group of genera (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae; Pimplinae): a taxonomic revision of spider ectoparasitoids IAN D. GAULD1 and JACQUES DUBOIS2 1Department of Entomology, The Natural History Museum, London, U.K. and 2UMR 5202-CNRS, De´partement Syste´matique et Evolution, Museum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris, France Abstract. A cladistic analysis of the Polysphincta genus-group (¼ the ‘Polysphinctini’ of authors), a clade of koinobiont ectoparasitoids of spiders, was undertaken using ninety-six characters for seventy-seven taxa (sixty-five ingroup and twelve outgroup). The genus-group is monophyletic, nested within the Ephialtini as (Iseropus (Gregopimpla (Tromatobia ((Zaglyptus þ Clistopyga) þ (Polysphincta genus- group))))). Within the Polysphincta genus-group, the clade (Piogaster þ Inbioia)is sister-lineage to all other genera. The cosmopolitan genus Zabrachypus is nonmono- phyletic, and has been subdivided into a monophyletic Nearctic/Western Palaearctic Zabrachypus s.str. and an Eastern Palaearctic Brachyzapus gen.n., comprising B. nik- koensis (Uchida) comb.n., B. tenuiabdominalis (Uchida) comb.n. and B. unicarinatus (Uchida & Momoi) comb.n. An Afrotropical species placed in Zabrachypus, Z. curvi- cauda (Seyrig), belongs to Schizopyga comb.n. The monophyly of the cosmopolitan genus Dreisbachia is equivocal, and we consider that species assigned to it are best placed in an expanded Schizopyga (syn.n.). The monobasic Afrotropical genus Afrosphincta is also a synonym of Schizopyga (syn.n.). The newly delimited Schizopyga is the sister- lineage of Brachyzapus, and these two genera form the sister-lineage of Zabrachypus s.str. as the monophyletic clade (Zabrachypus þ (Schizopyga þ Brachyzapus)).

In the past few decades, however, these mangrove forests have been largely degraded and destroyed during the process of development. The negative environmental and socio-economic impacts on mangrove ecosystems have led many government and non- government agencies, together with civil societies, to launch mangrove conservation and rehabilitation programmes, especially during the 1990s. In the course of such activities, programme staff have faced continual difficulties in identifying plant species growing in the field. Despite a wide availability of mangrove guidebooks in Southeast Asia, none of these sufficiently cover species that, though often associated with mangroves, are not confined to this habitat.

  • Conservation of Arthropod Natural Enemies in Broccoli with Relay Strip-Cropping
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Daniel M. McGrath for the degree of Doctor of Philosophyin Entomology presented on February 15, 2000. Title: Conservation ofArthropod Natural Enemies in Broccoli with Relay Strip-Cropping Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Relay strip-cropping combines two vegetation management tactics,under- sowing and strip-management. In this study conductedfrom 1994 though 1997, a cover crop seed-mixture containing oats (Avena sativa L.var. "Monida"), common vetch ( Vicia sativa L.), red clover (Tr4foliumpratense L.), annual ryegrass (Lolium multflorum Lam.), and buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentumMoench) was broadcast over established broccoli (Brassica oleracea L.) 32days after planting. The broccoli was planted, under-sown, and harvestedin sections alternated with strips of cover crop. Thecover crop relay provided tillage and pesticide refuges for beneficial insects without taking landout of broccoli production. Relay strip- cropping increased the abundance and diversity of groundbeetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae), spiders (Araneae), harvestmen (Opiliones: Phalangiidae),lady beetles (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), and damsel bugs (Heteroptera: Nabidae)in the cropping system; however, this did not always result inincreased natural enemies in the broccoli. Arthropod species varied significantly in theirpropensity to leave the non-crop vegetation andmove into the broccoli. Movement of the lady beetle Coccinella septempunctata L. from thecover crop strips into the broccoli may have depressed aphid populations in 1996. Thenon-crop vegetation may have served as a sink rather than a source for Nabis species and appeared to reduce their density in the broccoli growing nearby. Therewas no evidence that background vegetation surrounding the broccoli reduced colonization by winged aphids.The density of the cabbage flea beetle Phyllotreta crucferae Goezewas lower in the broccoli relay compared with the clean-tilled broccoli.

  • 1. Introduction
    INTRODUCTION 1 1. Introduction The order Thysanoptera (common name: thrips) encompasses minute insects which are usually only a few millimeters long. The majority of the species has fringed, banded wings as well as asymmetrical sucking and piercing mouthparts (only the left-hand side mandible is developed) (HEMING 1978; MOUND et al. 1980; MORITZ 1989b, 1997). Thrips also have a protrusible sac-like arolium at the apex of each leg (HEMING 1971; MOUND et al. 1980; MORITZ 1989c). These insects were first described by DE GEER in 1744 (Physapus), later LINNEAUS placed the species which were known at this time in a genus called Thrips, and in 1836 HALIDAY ranked these insects to the Thysanoptera order. Thysanoptera are distributed worldwide predominating in tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions (LEWIS 1973, 1997). Currently about 5500 thrips species are described (10000 species estimated) (LEWIS 1997; MOUND 1997). Within Thysanoptera there are two suborders, Terebrantia and Tubulifera. Females of the Terebrantia possess an external ovipositor composed of four valves (HEMING 1970a; BODE 1975; MORITZ 1989d, 1997). In the tubuliferan species the ovipositor displays a flexible internal structure which is evertable (HEMING 1970a; MORITZ 1997). There are nine families within the Thysanoptera (MORITZ et al. 2001). Eight of these (Uzelothripidae, Merothripidae, Aeolothripidae, Melanthripidae, Adiheterothripidae, Fauriellidae, Heterothripidae, and Thripidae) belong to the Terebrantia. The suborder of Tubulifera includes only a single family, the Phlaeothripidae (MOUND 1997). 93 per cent of all known thrips species are placed in either the Thripidae or Phlaeothripidae (MOUND 1997) and of these two major families the Phlaeothripidae is the largest with about 3100 currently described species (MOUND et al.
