  • Heteroptera: Miridae): New Species, New Combinations, and Additional Distribution Records DAN A
    PAN-PACIFIC ENTOMOLOGIST 61(2), 1985, pp. 146-151 A Review of Dichaetocoris Knight (Heteroptera: Miridae): New Species, New Combinations, and Additional Distribution Records DAN A. POLHEMUS Department of Biology, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah 84112. The genus Dichaetocoris was proposed by Knight (1968) to contain twelve species of Orthotylinae from the western United States. My studies reveal that four species presently in the genus are not congeneric with D. pinicola Knight, the type species of Dichaetocoris, while a species presently in Orthotylus, 0. piceicola Knight, should be transferred to Dichaetocoris. In this paper the following new combinations are proposed: D. stanleyaea Knight = Melanotrichus stanle- yaea (Knight), D. brevirostris Knight = Melanotrichus knighti Polhemus, D. sym- phoricarpi Knight = Melanotrichus symphoricarpi (Knight), D. peregrinus (Van Duzee) = Parthenicus peregrinus (Van Duzee), and Orthotylus piceicola Knight = D. piceicola (Knight). Two new species, D. geronimo and Df mojave, are described from Arizona and Nevada respectively, and distributional records are noted for D. pinicola Knight, D. merinoi Knight, Df coloradensis Knight, D. nevadensis Knight, and D. spinosus (Knight). Generic concepts in the western Orthotylini are in serious need of revision, a project beyond the scope of the present paper. As construed here, the genus Dichaetocoris may be distinguished by the presence of two types of simple re- cumbent pubescence on the dorsum, a lack ofsexual dimorphism, and restriction to coniferous hosts. The closely allied genus Melanotrichus possesses flattened silvery hairs on the dorsum, exhibits weak sexual dimorphism in which the females are frequently shorter and broader than the males, and occurs on a variety ofnon- coniferous hosts.

  • Arthropod Diversity Estimates for Three Native Subalpine Plant
    ARTHROPOD DIVERSITY ESTIMATES FOR THREE NATIVE SUBALPINE PLANT SPECIES ON THE MAUNAKEA VOLCANO OF HAWAI‘I ISLAND A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT HILO IN PARTIAL FULFULLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN TROPICAL CONSERVATION BIOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE DECEMBER 2016 By Heather Stever Thesis Committee: Jesse Eiben, Chairperson Ryan Perroy Paul Selmants Keywords: Arthropods, Endemic, Hawai‘i, Insects, Maunakea, Subalpine Acknowledgements I am immensely grateful for the knowledge, advice, support, and funding that I received from the many people and organizations that helped to make this project possible. I would like to especially thank my academic advisor, Jesse Eiben, the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo Office of Maunakea Management, and the Tropical Conservation Biology and Environmental Science faculty and students. I would also like to thank, in alphabetical order, Nina Buchanan, Jessica Kirkpatrick, Frederick Klasner, Devin Leopold, Stephanie Nagata, Julien Pétillon, Ryan Perroy, Daniel Rubinoff, Esther Sebastián-González, Paul Selmants, Marleena Sheffield, Michael Shintaku, Andrew Stever, Amber Stillman, and Darcy Yogi. ii Abstract Terrestrial arthropods are among the most abundant and diverse animals on Earth, especially in Hawai‘i where they constitute the vast majority of endemic fauna and play crucial roles in nearly every habitat throughout the islands. Arthropod surveys and inventories are useful methods for documenting arthropod diversity, but studying arthropods can be extremely difficult. Arthropod collection is often taxing because many species are very mobile and exist in harsh climates or on terrain that is difficult to access. Arthropod identification can also be challenging since many arthropods are remarkably small with complex morphologies and diverse life histories.

Biodiversity Data Journal 9: e62011. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.9.e62011 Abstract Background Dokdo, a group of islands near the East Coast of South Korea, comprises 89 small islands. These volcanic islands were created by an eruption that also led to the formation of the Ulleungdo Islands (located in the East Sea), which are approximately 87.525 km away from Dokdo. Dokdo is important for geopolitical reasons; however, because of certain barriers to investigation, such as weather and time constraints, knowledge of its insect fauna is limited compared to that of Ulleungdo. Until 2017, insect fauna on Dokdo included 10 orders, 74 families, 165 species and 23 undetermined species; subsequently, from 2018 to 2019, we discovered 23 previously unrecorded species and three undetermined species via an insect survey.

  • (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae: Epicephala) and Leafflower Trees (Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus Sensu Lato [Glochidion]) in Southeastern Polynesia
    Coevolutionary Diversification of Leafflower Moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae: Epicephala) and Leafflower Trees (Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus sensu lato [Glochidion]) in Southeastern Polynesia By David Howard Hembry A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Rosemary Gillespie, Chair Professor Bruce Baldwin Professor Patrick O’Grady Spring 2012 1 2 Abstract Coevolution between phylogenetically distant, yet ecologically intimate taxa is widely invoked as a major process generating and organizing biodiversity on earth. Yet for many putatively coevolving clades we lack knowledge both of their evolutionary history of diversification, and the manner in which they organize themselves into patterns of interaction. This is especially true for mutualistic associations, despite the fact that mutualisms have served as models for much coevolutionary research. In this dissertation, I examine the codiversification of an obligate, reciprocally specialized pollination mutualism between leafflower moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae: Epicephala) and leafflower trees (Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus sensu lato [Glochidion]) on the oceanic islands of southeastern Polynesia. Leafflower moths are the sole known pollinators of five clades of leafflowers (in the genus Phyllanthus s. l., including the genera Glochidion and Breynia), and thus this interaction is considered to be obligate. Female moths actively transfer pollen from male flowers to female flowers, using a haired proboscis to transfer pollen into the recessed stigmatic surface at the end of the fused stylar column. The moths then oviposit into the flowers’ ovaries, and the larva which hatches consumes a subset, but not all, of the developing fruit’s seed set.

  • Phytophagous Insect Community Assembly Through Niche
    Journal of Biogeography (J. Biogeogr.) (2013) 40, 225–235 ORIGINAL Phytophagous insect community ARTICLE assembly through niche conservatism on oceanic islands David H. Hembry1*, Tomoko Okamoto2, Gerald McCormack3 and Rosemary G. Gillespie1 1Department of Environmental Science, ABSTRACT Policy, and Management, University of Aim To determine whether a community of phytophagous insects on oceanic islands California, Berkeley, CA, USA, 2Graduate (the fauna of insects feeding internally on Glochidion trees in south-eastern Polynesia) School of Human and Environmental Studies, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan, 3Cook Islands was assembled predominantly through niche conservatism or adaptive radiation. Natural Heritage Trust, Rarotonga, Cook Location The islands of south-eastern Polynesia (southern Cook, Austral, Islands Society, Tuamotu-Gambier and Marquesas archipelagos) in the Cook Islands and French Polynesia. Methods Internally feeding insects were collected as larvae from 23 endemic species of Glochidion (Euphorbiaceae s.l., Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus s.l.) trees on 20 islands in south-eastern Polynesia, reared and identified. Rearing records were compared with host records previously known from the literature and museum collections of closely related taxa in Asia and Australasia. Results Ninety per cent of insect specimens collected fall into five taxa previously known to attack Glochidion in Asia and Australasia ( 6000 km distant), indicating a strong role for niche conservatism in the assembly of this community. Three of these taxa, two seed-feeding moths (Gracillariidae: Epicephala; Tortricidae: Tritopterna) and a leaf-mining moth (Gracillariidae: Diphtheroptila) are only known from Phyllanthaceae or Euphorbiaceae s.l. on continents. Two more taxa, another leaf-mining moth (Gracillariidae: Caloptil- ia) and a leaf-rolling moth (Tortricidae: Dudua), contain many species known only from Phyllanthaceae on continents, and are also very likely to represent examples of niche conservatism.

  • The Miridae (Hemiptera : Heteroptera) Associated with Noble
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Gary Michael Cooper for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology presented in January 1981 Title: The Miridae (Hemiptera:Heteroptera) Associated with Noble Fir, Abies procera Rehd. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: /- Dr. John D. Lattin The Miridae, or plant bugs, associated with noble fir, Abies procera Rehd., are discussed. Thirty six species of the Miridae were collected from noble fir. Twenty five of these species are considered only "visitors" to noble fir. The study does not deal with these species. Noble fir is a host of the eleven other species: Deraeocoris incertus Knight, Deraeocoris piceicola Knight, Dichrooscytus sp. A, Orthotylus sp. A, Paradacerla formicina (Parshley), Phytocoris neglectus Knight, Phytocoris sp. A, Pinalitus solivagus (Van Duzee), Plagiognathus sp. A and Psallus spp. A and B. Fifth instar larvae and the adults of these eleven species were examined and described. The plant bugs were collected from the noble fir foliage every seven to fourteen days from early May to mid-October,1979 from Marys Peak in the Oregon Coast Range and the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest in the Oregon Cascade Mountains. Distributional data were added from collecting trips in Oregon on Grass Mountain and around Mt. Hood and in Washington state at White Pass and Stevens Pass. The larvae and adults of the eleven noble fir mirid species were observed in a growth chamber. Feeding observations were recorded for eight species. The larvae and adults were examined for external signs of insect parasitism. Sticky traps placed on the boles of noble fir trees on Marys Peak collected very few mirids, suggestingthat the mirids remain on the foliage and branches.
