Revista Forestal Mesoamericana Kurú (Enero-Junio, 2021) 18 (42): 17-29 DOI: 10.18845/rfmk.v16i42.5543 Inventario de plagas y enfermedades en viveros forestales en Costa Rica Review of pests and diseases in forest nurseries in Costa Rica Marcela Arguedas Gamboa1 • María Rodríguez-Solís1 • Jaume Cots Ibiza2 • Adrián Martínez Araya3 Recibido: 24/4/2020 Aceptado: 6/8/2020 Publicado: 17/12/2020 Abstract Forest nurseries are the sites of intensive plant production for reforestation and arboriculture programs, which must be of high quality and free from pests and diseases. A sanitary evaluation was carried out in seven forest nurseries in Costa Rica, to prepare the diagnosis of phytosanitary problems. 15 species of insects were diagnosed, 44 of pathogens and 5 of mites, in a total of 80 forest species under production. At the apex, the most important damages are caused by the borer Hypsipila grandella and the cutter Trigona sp. and as pathogens Botrytis sp., Cylindrocladium sp. and Phomopsis sp.; in the foliage, by the insects Eulepte concordalis, Dictyla monotropidia and Austropuccinia psidii, Colletotrichum spp., Dothistroma septosporum, Melampsoridium alni, Oidium sp., Olivea tectonae, and Phyllachora balansae as pathogens. These problems are described and the principles and practices contemplated in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) are recommended for their control. Key words: Seedlings, pathogens, insects, mites, phytosanitary diagnosis. 1.

Abstract. Moré, M.; S. Benitez-Vieyra, A. N. Sérsic & A. A. Cocucci. 2014. Pollen deposition patterns onto the pollinators’ body in sphingophilous communities of subtropical Argentina. Darwiniana, nueva serie 2(1): 174-196. Plant species that coexist and share pollinators may experience inter-specific competition for pollina- tor service or interference of improper pollen. To avoid the latter, plant species may use different areas of the pollinators´ body to deposit their pollen, either by different floral architectures or by different floral lengths. We evaluate here the existence of this pattern of differential use of body areas of pollinators in 33 sphingophilous communities of subtropical Argentina. We use null models to evaluate if the plants deposit the pollen overdispersed relative to what would be expected by chance either in different body parts or at different heights in the proboscis of hawkmoth pollinators. We found that 42 native plants species are pollinated by hawkmoths in subtropical Argentina. We observed a significant and positive correlation between the operative length –i.e. the distance between anthers and stigma from nectar– of the flowers and the mean length of the proboscis of hawkmoth pollinators. -

E-mail:[email protected] ABSTRACT: The caatinga, a thorn-shrub succulent savannah, is located in Northeastern Brazil and characterized by a short and irregular rainy season and a severe dry season. Insects are only abundant during the rainy months, displaying a strong seasonal pat- tern. Here we present data from a yearlong Sphingidae survey undertaken in the reserve Estação Ecológica do Seridó, located in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Hawkmoths were collected once a month during two subsequent new moon nights, between 18.00h and 05.00h, attracted with a 160-watt mercury vapor light. A total of 593 specimens belonging to 20 species and 14 genera were col- lected. Neogene dynaeus, Callionima grisescens, and Hyles euphorbiarum were the most abundant species, together comprising up to 82.2% of the total number of specimens collected. These frequent species are residents of the caatinga of Rio Grande do Norte. The rare Sphingidae in this study, Pseudosphinx tetrio, Isognathus australis, and Cocytius antaeus, are migratory species for the caatinga. -

A strong contribution of the pyralid to a focal plant by lowering specialist herbivore loads to overall damage patterns in diversified stands suggests (associational resistance hypothesis), or enhance damage that associational susceptibility may not necessarily be by increasing generalist herbivore loads (associational related to higher abundances of generalist herbivores but susceptibility hypothesis). We tested the associational may also result from specialized herbivores affected by effects of tree diversity on herbivory patterns of the tropical resource dilution effects. Thus, the identity and biology of focal tree Tabebuia rosea in an experimental plantation herbivore species has to be taken into account when setup, which contained tree monocultures and mixed attempting to predict damage patterns in forest ecosystems. -

RESUMEN La riqueza biológica de Mesoamérica es enorme. Dentro de esta gran área geográfi ca se encuentran algunos de los ecosistemas más diversos del planeta (selvas tropicales), así como varios de los principales centros de endemismo en el mundo (bosques nublados). Países como Guatemala, en esta gran área biogeográfi ca, tiene grandes zonas de bosque húmedo tropical y bosque mesófi lo, por esta razón es muy importante para analizar la diversidad en la región. Lamentablemente, la fauna de mariposas de Guatemala es poco conocida y por lo tanto, es necesario llevar a cabo un estudio y análisis de la composición y la diversidad de las mariposas (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) en Guatemala. -

Janzen (CES, MJS) S-225 Department of Entomology, Ag. Sci Cen.-North, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40546-0091 USA; (DHJ) Department of Biology, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104 USA; email: [email protected] — Abstract. Coccygidium gregarium Sarmiento & Sharkey, the first known gregarious species of the subfamily Agathidinae (Braconidae), is described. This species was reared from a larva of Euglyphis sp. (Lasiocampidae). The SEM images of its last antennal flagellomere reveal that the characteristic acuminate shape is due to the presence of elongated, presumably sensory, structures. This type of flagellomere, together with its carinate hind trochantellus, are traits present in the genera Coccygidium, Biroia, Dichelosus, Hemichoma and in the Afrotropical genus Hyrtanommatium, suggesting a close phylogenetic relationship. The apex of the ovipositor sheath bears a small pointed process present in other Coccygidium species and also in Biroia, Dichelosus, and Hemichoma but not in Hyrtanommatium; this trait may suggest a close relationship among these genera. SEM images of this structure show that it is covered by ampulliform papillae, here reported for the first time. The pores on the inner apex of the ovipositor sheaths and the ampulliform papillae are either secretory or sensory. The Agathidinae are comprised of ap- geti, Hemichoma Enderlein and Dichelosus proximately 52 genera worldwide, with 20 Szepligeti are derived clades within Coc- occurring in the New World. Nearly 1000 cygidium. species have been described, mostly from All agathidines for which there are re- tropical areas. -

PATHOLOGY OF THE DERMATITIS CAUSED BY MEGALO- PYGE OPERCULARIS, A TEXAN CATERPILLAR.* BY NATHAN CHANDLER FOOT, M.D. (From the Department of Comparative Pathology, GeorgeFabyan Foundation, Ha~vard Medical School, Boston.) PLATES 62 AND 63. (Receivedfor publication, December22, 1921.) INTRODUCTION. A small larval moth has been causing dermatitis in southern Texas for the past decade, particularly during the years 1913 and 1920. It is known locally as the puss-caterpillar, opossum bug, Italian asp, and, by Mexicans, el perrito (the puppy), and belongs to the family Megalo- pygida~, of the group known as slug caterpillars. As it has not been investigated systematically from a medical standpoint up to the present time, the work reported in this paper was undertaken at the suggestion of Mr. F. C. Bishopp, of the United States Bureau of Entomology, who is stationed at Dallas, Texas, and to whom the writer is much indebted for the caterpillars studied and notes concerning their distribution and injurious effects. Mr. Bishopp reports the following clinical symptoms from regions infested by the caterpillars. All stages of the larva are capable of inflicting stings, the intensity of the lesions being in proportion to the size of the caterpillar. There is a marked variability in the susceptibility of different individuals. At some seasons there have been epidemics of dermatitis so widespread that public schools in San Antonio, Texas, were closed until the surrounding trees could be sprayed. The severity of the sting varies with its location and the thickness of the skin affected. There is at first a localized, painful area of erythema, which burns intensely.
