Oranges and mandarins Alert List .................................................................................................... 50 1 1. Introduction Oranges and mandarins were selected to establish an Alert List of pests that may present a risk to cultivated species or varieties in the EU (see Analysis of fruit production and imports in the EU to select species for pathway studies1 – thereafter Selection of fruit). It was also decided that other Citrus species would be kept in mind, to take account of the general importance of Citrus in the EU and the fact that pests often affect several Citrus species. Orange and mandarin are the Citrus species that are the most imported in the EU, and represent a large cropping area (>420.000 ha together). This section is not an exhaustive study of the pathway ‘orange and mandarin fruit’, but is intended to outline the different Citrus species concerned by trade and present in the EU, the countries from which oranges and mandarins are imported into the EU, and some characteristics of the pathway, for the purpose of better targeting searches and the screening of pests. 1.1 Background on oranges and mandarins This section focuses on issues that are important to the present study. Citrus originate from Asia and have been naturalized in many parts of the world. There are also native species in various regions (e.g. Australia – Hele, 2006). Citrus are not new crops in Europe or other areas, although the cropping of some species or hybrids has started more recently than others. Citrus were introduced into Europe for cropping purposes already in the late 8th century (sour orange) and, in the Americas, first to the Caribbean in the late 15th century, later to continental Americas. In the 16th century, sweet oranges reached Europe. In the 17th century, oranges, lemons and pomelos reached South Africa, and at the end of the 18th century, oranges reached Australia. Mandarins were the latest introduction both in Europe and the Americas, at the end of the 19th century (Webber, 1967). The majority of Citrus fruit mature during the local winter. In Europe, the main Citrus season is in November to March, and for some varieties as early as October and as late as May. Citrus in tropical climates may have several harvests a year, but this does not seem to be the case for oranges and mandarins (rather limes, pomelos and grapefruits). The taxonomy of Citrus is complex, and there are many species and hybrids worldwide. Citrus spp. hybridize readily naturally and new hybrids are produced in breeding programmes. Literature searches intended to target all Citrus cultivars, with more attention to species of oranges and mandarins. However, which species and hybrids are regarded as ‘oranges’ or ‘mandarins’ is not always clear. It is also not clear under which trade category the different species or hybrids are allocated in production and trade data (see section 1.2). Mabberley (1997) divides Citrus in three major groups under a Linnean scheme: C. medica (includes lemons), C. reticulata (includes mandarins, clementines and similar) and C. maxima (includes species and hybrids belonging to oranges, grapefruits and limes). The common names ‘oranges’ and ‘mandarins’ apply to a wide variety of species and hybrids, as detailed below. In some cases, common names may point to different categories for the same species or variety (e.g. Citrus × aurantium 'Sanbokan' is called Sanbokan sour orange/sweet lemon/grapefruit). Most information below is extracted from the review in the website by Koskinen (2015). Oranges relevant for this study There are two main categories of oranges: - sweet oranges (species, varieties and hybrids of C. sinensis2 (synonyms are sometimes used in the literature, such as Citrus aurantium var. sinensis or Aurantium sinense) are eaten fresh or used in juice or various preparations. Sweet oranges that are imported fresh

  • Check List of the Rutelinae (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae) of Oceania
    CHECK LIST OF THE RUTELINAE (COLEOPTERA, SCARABAEIDAE) OF OCEANIA By FRIEDRICH OHAUS BERNICE P. BISHOP MUSEUM OCCASIONAL PAPERS VOLUME XI, NUMBER 2 HONOLULU, HAWAII PUBLISHED BY THE MUSJ-:UM 1935 CHECK LIST OF THE RUTELINAE (COLEOPTERA, SCARABAEIDAE) OF OCEANIA By FRIEDRICH OHAUS MAINZ, GERMANY BIOLOGY The RuteIinae are plant feeders. In Parastasia the beetle (imago) visits flowers, and the grub (larva) lives in dead trunks of more or less hard wood. In Anomala the beetle is a leaf feeder, and the grub lives in the earth, feeding on the roots of living plants. In Adoretus the beetle feeds on flowers and leaves; the grub lives in the earth and feeds upon the roots of living plants. In some species of Anornala and Adoretus, both beetles and grubs are noxious to culti­ vated plants, and it has been observed that eggs or young grubs of these species have been transported in the soil-wrapping around roots or parts of roots of such plants as the banana, cassava, and sugar cane. DISTRIBUTION With the exception of two species, the Rutelinae found on the continent of Australia (including Tasmania) belong to the subtribe Anoplognathina. The first exception is Anomala (Aprosterna) antiqua Gyllenhal (australasiae Blackburn), found in northeast Queensland in cultivated places near the coast. This species is abundant from British India and southeast China in the west to New Guinea in the east, stated to be noxious here and there to cultivated plants. It was probably brought to Queensland by brown or white men, as either eggs or young grubs in soil around roots of bananas, cassava, or sugar cane.

INTRODUCTION The fauna of noctuoid moths (the families Erebidae and Noctuidae) of Kazakhstan is still poorly studied. Only the fauna of West Kazakhstan has been studied satisfactorily (Gorbunov 2011). On the faunas of other parts of the country, only fragmentary data are published (Lederer, 1853; 1855; Aibasov & Zhdanko 1982; Hacker & Peks 1990; Lehmann et al. 1998; Benedek & Bálint 2009; 2013; Korb 2013). In contrast to the West Kazakhstan, the fauna of noctuid moths of East Kazakhstan was studied inadequately.
