Hymenoptera) with Highly Specialized Egg Morphology
Systematic Entomology (2011), 36, 529–548 Maxfischeriinae: a new braconid subfamily (Hymenoptera) with highly specialized egg morphology ∗ ∗ CHARLES ANDREW BORING1 , BARBARA J. SHARANOWSKI2 andMICHAEL J. SHARKEY1 1Department of Entomology, S-225 Agricultural Science Center North, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY, U.S.A. and 2Department of Entomology, 214 Animal Science Bldg., University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada Abstract. The tribe Maxfischeriini, previously placed in Helconinae, is emended to subfamily status based on morphological and biological evidence. Proposed autapomorphies for Maxfischeriinae include: the presence of a pronotal shelf, forewing vein 1a and 2a present, although 1a nebulous, ventral valve of the ovipositor with serrations from tip to base and specialized egg morphology. The novel, pedunculate egg morphology is described for Maxfischeria, representing a new life- history strategy among Braconidae. Based on egg and ovipositor morphology, we suggest that Maxfischeria is a proovigenic, koinobiont ectoparasitoid. Five new species of Maxfischeria Papp are described with an illustrated key to all species (Maxfischeria ameliae sp.n., Maxfischeria anic sp.n., Maxfischeria briggsi sp.n., Maxfischeria folkertsorum sp.n. and Maxfischeria ovumancora sp.n.). In addition to the identification key presented here, all known species of Maxfischeria can be separated using the barcoding region of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI ). Based on molecular data, the phylogenetic relationships among the six known species of Maxfischeria are as follows: (M. folkertsorum sp.n. (M. ovumancora sp.n. (M. briggsi sp.n. (M. anic sp.n. (M. tricolor + M. ameliae sp.n.))))). Introduction in the forewing. However, Maxfischeria does not possess other features associated with Helconini, including a distinct Until now the braconid genus Maxfischeria included a lamella on the frons, two strongly developed lateral carinae single species, Maxfischeria tricolor Papp. -
Hymenoptera: Braconidae) As Extant

Key words: Braconidae; Helconoid clade; Acampsohelconinae; Urosigalphini; Afrocampsini; Helconi- nae; Canalicephalus; Urosigalphus; Acampsohelcon; Afrocampsis; key; distribution; Indo-Australian; Orien- tal; Indonesia; Java; Sulawesi; Halmahera; Malaysia; Borneo; Sabah. The species of the genus Canalicephalus Gibson, 1977, are revised and eight new species are described (three from East Malaysia (Sabah), and five from Indonesia (three from Sulawesi, one from Java and one from Halmahera). The sistergenera Canalicephalus and Urosigalphus are united in a new tribe Urosigalphi- ni and keyed, including a key to the recognized subgenera of the genus Urosigalphus Ashmead, 1889. Both extant tribes Urosigalphini nov. and Afrocampsini van Achterberg & Austin, 1992, are included in the subfamily Acampsohelconinae Tobias, 1987, which up to now contains only a fossil species. Introduction During revision of the genera of Braconidae two genera (Canalicephalus Gibson, 1977, and Urosigalphus Ashmead, 1889), supposedly belonging to the subfamily Blacinae Foerster, 1862 (e.g., Gibson, 1977) or more commonly to the Helconinae Foer- ster, 1862 (e.g., Sharkey, 1997) were found not to fit well into either of these subfami- lies but to be more similar to members of the subfamily Cheloninae Foerster, 1862. -
(Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Macrocentrinae) from China
A revision of the genus Aulacocentrum Brues (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Macrocentrinae) from China J. He & C. van Achterberg J. He & C. van Achterberg.

Key words: Braconidae; Macrocentrinae; Aulacocentrum; key; distribution; Oriental; Palaeartic; China. The species of the genus Aulacocentrum Brues (Braconidae: Macrocentrinae) from China are revised and keyed. Two new species are described and illustrated. Introduction The genus Aulacocentrum Brues, 1922, of the subfamily Macrocentrinae Foerster, 1862 (Braconidae), is a rather small genus with three species described from the Palaearctic and Oriental regions. A revision of the genus is planned to be published soon by the second author. It can be separated from the closely related genus Macro- centrus Curtis, 1833, by the following characters (van Achterberg, 1993): first meta- somal tergite (at least partly) distinctly transversely striate; length of first tergite 3-8 times its apical width; vein SR of hind wing moderately to strongly bent; vein SC+R1 of hind wing abruptly bent; fore femur moderately long setose dorsally, somewhat shorter than ventrally; and length of inner hind tibial spur 0.3-0.5 times length of hind basitarsus. Previous records indicate that Aulacocentrum species are mainly endoparasites of larvae of Pyralidae (Lepidoptera). In this paper three species of the genus are reported from China; two are new to science. -

(Hymenoptera: Braconidae) Based on DNA Sequences of 16S Rrna, 18S Rdna and Atpase 6 Genes
Eur. J. Entomol. 102: 133–138, 2005 ISSN 1210-5759 Molecular phylogeny of the Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) based on DNA sequences of 16S rRNA, 18S rDNA and ATPase 6 genes MIN SHI and XUE-XIN CHEN* Institute of Applied Entomology, College of Agriculture and Biotechnology, Zhejiang University, 268 Kaixuan Road, Hangzhou 310029, China Key words. Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Aphidiinae, 16S rRNA, 18S rDNA, ATPase 6, phylogeny Abstract. Phylogenetic relationships among 16 genera of the subfamily Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) were investigated using sequence data from three genes: the mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit (16S), 18S ribosomal DNA and mitochondrial ATPase 6. All sequences were downloaded from the GenBank database. A total of 2775 base pairs of aligned sequence were obtained per species from these three genes. The results support the existence of three-tribes: Ephedrini, Praini and Aphidiini, with the Ephedrini occupying the basal position; Aphidiini could be further subdivided into three subtribes: Monoctonina, Trioxina and Aphidiina. The genus Aphidius is a paraphyletic group. The taxonomic status of the subfamily Aphidiinae within the Braconidae is probably closer to the non-cyclostome than the cyclostome subfamilies. INTRODUCTION majority of genera and species, and is further subdivided Aphidiinae is one of the subfamilies of the family Bra- into two subtribes, Aphidiina and Trioxina. Because the conidae (Insecta: Hymenoptera) with approximately 50 Aclitini is poorly represented and hardly available genera and 400 species (Mackauer & Starý, 1967; Starý, (Kmabhampati et al., 2000 are the only authors to have 1988). They are exclusively solitary endoparasitoids of included them in a molecular analysis) most authors aphids. Several species have been used successfully in accept the existence of four natural groups: Ephedrini, biological control programs throughout the world Praini, Trioxini and Aphidiini. -
Ecology of Proteaceae with Special Reference to the Sydney Region

Bradstock Myerscough, P.J.1, Whelan, R.J.2, and Bradstock, R.A.3 (1Institute of Wildlife Research, School of Biological Sciences (A08), University of Sydney, NSW 2006; 2Department of Biological Sciences, University of Wollongong, NSW 2522; 3Biodiversity Research and Management Division, NSW National Parks & Wildlife Service, PO Box 1967, Hurstville, NSW 1481) Ecology of Proteaceae with special reference to the Sydney region. Cunninghamia 6(4): 951–1015. In Australia, the Proteaceae are a diverse group of plants. They inhabit a wide range of environments, many of which are low in plant resources. They support a wide range of animals and other organisms, and show distinctive patterns of distribution in relation to soils, climate and geological history. These patterns of distribution, relationships with nutrients and other resources, interactions with animals and other organisms and dynamics of populations in Proteaceae are addressed in this review, particularly for the Sydney region. The Sydney region, with its wide range of environments, offers great opportunities for testing general questions in the ecology of the Proteaceae. For instance, its climate is not mediterranean, unlike the Cape region of South Africa, south- western and southern Australia, where much of the research on plants of Proteaceae growing in infertile habitats has been done. The diversity and abundance of Proteaceae vary in the Sydney region inversely with fertility of habitats. In the region’s rainforest there are few Proteaceae and their populations are sparse, whereas in heaths in the region, Proteaceae are often diverse and may dominate the canopy. -
