As you may remember from the last issue of this Working Group Bulletin, Bent Bromand was the founding head of the group until 1988. At this time Volker Paul and Ingrid Williams began their convenorships. From 1988 until 2003, they organized ten (!) Working Group meetings and were editors of seven (!) IOBC-Bulletins. Both organizing meetings and editorial work are time consuming assignments. Their activities were of course an honorary post, enhancing their workload considerably. We are all obliged to Ingrid and Volker. Their activities offered the possibility to meet and have exchange with colleagues from abroad. Beside the exchange of the most recent scientific results and publishing them, the set up of a `scientific-social´ network becomes more and more important. Against this background the Working Group is of extraordinary importance to all of us. Successful funding of four EU projects (BORIS, MASTER, IMASCORE and SECURE) may also be attributed at least partly to the activities of Ingrid and Volker. These few words can only partially appreciate their achievements. Thank you both, for all you have done for the group! Now, we hope that you are able to use your time for other nice things beside the Working Group on Integrated Control in Oilseed Crops. We hope that you keep in good shape, as can be seen on the photograph taken at our conference dinner in Poznań 2005. With all our very best wishes on behalf of the whole Working Group! Birger Koopmann and Sam Cook, April 2006 i ii Preface At our last meeting in 2004, held at Rothamsted Research, Harpenden, UK, we decided to meet next in Poznań, Poland, in 2005, to take advantage of the possibility of support provided by the EU project PAGEN. Thanks to all who helped the meeting to run so smoothly and in particular, Małgorzata ‘Gosia’ Jędryczka, for co-ordinating the local arrangements so care- fully.These included an interesting and fun excursion to the Malyszyn plant breeding station of Plant Breeding Strzelce and the bat reserve Nietoperek (Miedzyrzecki Wal Umocniony, Grupa Warowna Scharnhorst). This meeting was the biggest so far in the history of our Working Group, with 77 participants from a total of 11 countries, giving a total of 42 oral presentations and 25 posters. We are grateful to all who submitted manuscripts for the Bulletin! Editing and formatting the 48 papers and 18 abstracts in this volume was a big task, and we thank Neal Evans and Bernd Ulber for their assistance. This procedure has taken somewhat longer than we would have liked, due in part to the late submission of several papers. In order to maximize the usefulness of the Bulletin for both authors and readers, we believe we need to minimize the duration between the meeting and publication of the Bulletin. We will therefore ask that all manuscripts for the Bulletin are submitted at the meeting in future. This was the first meeting convened by both the new convenors (Birger is now fully recovered from an achilles tendon rupture, which prevented his attendance at the 2004 meeting!). We gratefully acknowledge the support of the previous convenors, Volker Paul and Ingrid Williams, given to us both prior to and during this meeting. We dedicate this volume to them with gratitude for all they have done for our Working Group. We hope to see you all at CETIOM in France for the next meeting, and thank Xavier Pinochet for taking on the responsibility for local arrangements. Á bientôt!

  • Coleoptera: Nitidulidae) on Annona Spp
    Scientific Notes 475 EFFECT OF PHEROMONE BAIT STATIONS FOR SAP BEETLES (COLEOPTERA: NITIDULIDAE) ON ANNONA SPP. FRUIT SET J. E. PEÑA1, A. CASTIÑEIRAS1, R. BARTELT2 AND R. DUNCAN1 1University of Florida, Tropical Research and Education Center, 18905 SW 280 St., Homestead FL 33031 2USDA-ARS-Midwest Area National Center for Agriculture, 1815 N University St., Peoria IL 61604 Atemoya, Annona squamosa L. x Annona cherimola Miller, and sugar apple, A. squamosa, have importance for the tropical fruit industry in Florida, but their yields are unreliable. This is so because fruit set is erratic due to highly variable pollination and physiological stress. Flowers of atemoyas and sugar apples initially undergo a fe- male phase during which stigmas are receptive, and later they have a male phase when the anthers split to shed pollen, but the stigmas are no longer receptive (Gotts- berger 1970). This prevents autogamy (i.e., fertilization of ovules by pollen from the same flower) (Nadel and Peña 1994). Most Annonaceae species are cantharophilous (beetle-pollinated), and a few are sapromyophilus (fly-pollinated) or thrips-pollinated (Gottsberger 1985). Cross pollination of Annona spp. can be carried out by sap beetles (Nitidulidae) (Reiss 1971, Nagel et al. 1989, George et al. 1992). In south Florida, nit- idulid pollinators are in the genera Carpophilus (six species) and Haptoncus (one spe- cies) (Nadel and Peña 1994). Gottsberger (1985) suggested that the Annonaceae and other primitive plants with cantharophilous pollination had evolved a specialized pol- lination system by releasing heavy floral volatiles that attract certain beetle species. For example, atemoya flowers open mid- to late afternoon and allow beetles enter.

ABSTRACT This paper deals with the Coleoptera Nitidulidae and Kateretidae collected in Sardinia during the surveys organized by Centro Nazionale per lo Studio e la Conservazione della Biodiversità Forestale "Bosco Fontana" of Verona in 2003–2008, with a few selected additional data collected on the island by the author during entomological trips carried out in 1982–2008, and by several Italian and European entomologists in the last few decades. The paper is also completed with the updated checklist of the species so far recorded from the island, including those based on a few unpublished data or extracted from recently examined material. 79 species (73 Nitidulidae, including 10 the presence of which is based only on very doubtful ancient records, and 6 Kateretidae) are listed for Sardinia. The updated list includes two species endemic to the Corso-Sardinian System: Sagittogethes nuragicus (Audisio & Jelínek, 1990), and Thymogethes foddaii (Audisio, De Biase & Trizzino, 2009) n. comb. Sagittogethes minutus (C. Brisout de Barneville, 1872) is recorded for the fi rst time from continental Italy (SE Calabria). Key words: Nitidulidae, Kateretidae, Sardinia, faunistics.

    The Proceedings of the 2nd National Oak Wilt Symposium Edited by: Ronald F. Billings David N. Appel Sponsored by International Society of Arboriculture – Texas Chapter Cooperators Texas Forest Service Texas AgriLife Extension Service The Nature Conservancy of Texas Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center USDA Forest Service, Forest Health Protection 2009 EPIDEMIOLOGY AND OCCURRENCE OF OAK WILT IN MIDWESTERN, MIDDLE, AND SOUTH ATLANTIC STATES Jennifer Juzwik USDA Forest Service Northern Research Station 1561 Lindig Avenue St. Paul, MN 55108 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT In Midwestern, Middle, and South Atlantic states, the oak wilt fungus (Ceratocystis fagacearum) is transmitted from diseased to healthy oaks below ground via root grafts and above ground via insect vectors. Recent studies have identified insect species in the family Nitidulidae that likely account for the majority of above-ground transmission during spring in several Midwestern states based on frequencies of fungus-contaminated beetles dispersing in oak stands and visiting fresh wounds. Other investigations have utilized quantitative and spatial data to predict root-graft spread in red oak stands. Although the disease is widely distributed in the regions, disease severity ranges from low to high among the regions and within states of the Midwestern region. Knowledge of spread frequencies and relationships between disease spread/severity and various physiographic factors is important in the development of tools for effective disease management. Key words: Ceratocystis fagacearum, disease spread, Nitidulidae New oak wilt infection centers (= foci) are the result of above-ground transmission of the pathogen (Ceratocystis fagacearum (Bretz) Hunt) by animal vectors, primarily insects. Outward expansion of foci from the initial infection(s) occur below ground when fungal propagules move through vascular root connections between a diseased and a nearby healthy oak.

Auch meiner restlichen Familie gilt mein Dank für ihre fortwährende Unterstützung.
