September 1998 Die Weinzygaene Theresimima ampellophaga (BAYLE-BARELLE 1808) (Lepidoptera, Zygaenidae, Procridinae) Kehrt ein verschwundener Weinschädling zurück?* Gerhard M. TARMANN Abstract: The Vine Bud Moth or European Grapeleaf Skeletonizer Theresimima ampellophaga (BAYLE-BARELLE 1808) - reappearence of a vine pest? The Vine Bud Moth or European Grapleaf Skeletonizer Theresimima ampellophaga (BAYLE- BARELLE 1808) was thought to be under control for many years. The last harmful infestations are recorded from Hungary in 1954 (ISSEKUTZ 1957a, 1957b). Only a few records are known from later years. A possible reason for the decline of populations may be found in more effective use of pesticide and insecticide. In 1990 Th. ampellophaga was rediscovered on Crimea (Ukraine) after almost 50 years of absence (EFETOV 1990b). For the first time the larvae were found on decorative vines (Parthenocissus). Between 1990 and 1997 the Vine Bud Moth spread all over southern Crimea and has developed very strong populations. This fact leads to the conclusion that neighbouring countries might be in immediate danger. The present paper gives an overview about historical and recent observations of Th. ampellophaga with special emphasis to the situation on Crimea. Pheromone recognition and pest control methods are mentioned. The systematic position and the historical and recent geographical distributions are discussed. -

Janneke Aylward Date: March 2017 Copyright © 2017 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT Knoxdaviesia capensis and K. proteae are saprotrophic fungi that inhabit the seed cones (infructescences) of Protea plants in the Core Cape Subregion (CCR) of South Africa. Arthropods, implicated in the pollination of Protea species, disperse these native fungi from infructescences to young flower heads (inflorescences). Knoxdaviesia proteae is a specialist restricted to one Protea species, while the generalist K. capensis occupies a range of Protea species. Within young flower heads, Knoxdaviesia species grow vegetatively, but switch to sexual reproduction once flower heads mature into enclosed infructescences. Nectar becomes depleted and infructescences are colonised by numerous other organisms, including the arthropod vectors of the fungi. The aim of this dissertation was to study the ecology of K. -

Bulletin UASVM serie Agriculture 69(2)/2012 Print ISSN 1843-5246; Electronic ISSN 1843-5386 Parameters Researches Regarding the Structural Parameters of the Populations of Rhynchitidae and Attelabidae in Romania Iuliana ANTONIE “Lucian Blaga” University, The Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, Food Industry and the Protection of the Environment, Sibiu, 7-9 Dr. Ion Raţiu, 550012, Sibiu, Romania: [email protected] Abstract. The study of the two families took into account the economic factor, because there are not few species of Rhynchitidae and Attelabidae that produced important damages in the vine, orchard, and forest areas as well as in the agricultural cultures. The researches took place during 1996-2006. The fauna material was collected during the travels to different localities in the country. In some investigated localities the collecting and the observations in the field were extended for at least 2-3 days and for the vine ecosystems with a great attack of Byctiscus betulae the researches lasted for 3-4 years, at regulated intervals of 3-4 weeks. In order to establish the structural parameters there was processed a rich material of over 1300 adult samples belonging to 17 species from a total of 29, which are to be found in Romania. The material comes from 42 localities. The way of collecting was: directly with the hand, with the entomologic net, by drillings in the soil and by using the device of obtaining the zoophagous parasites. Keywords: Ecology, structural parameters, Rhynchitidae and Attelabidae INTRODUCTION The species Rhynchitidae and Attelabidae (Coleoptera, Curculionoidea) are a relatively small group of insects, whose research represents both a scientific and practical interest (Becker, 1954). -
A Systematic Study of the Family Rhynchitidae of Japan(Coleoptera
Humans and Nature. No. 2, 1 ―93, March 1993 A Systematic Study of the Family Rhynchitidae of Japan (Coleoptera, Curculionoidea) * Yoshihisa Sawada Division of Phylogenetics, Museum of Nature and Human Activities, Hyogo, Yayoi~ga~oka 6, Sanda, 669~ 13 fapan Abstract Japanese RHYNCHITIDAE are systematically reviewed and revised. Four tribes, 17 genera and 62 species are recognized. Original and additional descriptions are given, with illustrations of and keys to their taxa. The generic and subgeneric names of Voss' system are reviewed from the viewpoint of nomenclature. At the species level, 12 new species Auletobius planifrons, Notocyrtus caeligenus, Involvulus flavus, I. subtilis, I. comix, I. aes, I. lupulus, Deporaus tigris, D. insularis, D. eumegacephalus, D. septemtrionalis and D. rhynchitoides are described and 1 species Engnamptus sauteri are newly recorded from Japan. Six species and subspecies names Auletes carvus, A. testaceus and A. irkutensis japonicus, Auletobius okinatuaensis, Aderorhinus pedicellaris nigricollis and Rhynchites cupreus purpuleoviolaceus are synonymized under Auletobius puberulus, A. jumigatus, A. uniformis, Ad. crioceroides and I. cylindricollis, respectively. One new name Deporaus vossi is given as the replacement name of the primally junior homonym D. pallidiventris Voss, 1957 (nec Voss, 1924). Generic and subgeneric classification is revised in the following points. The genus Notocyrtus is revived as an independent genus including subgenera Notocyrtus s. str., Exochorrhynchites and Heterorhynchites. Clinorhynckites and Habrorhynchites are newly treated as each independent genera. Caenorhinus is newly treated as a valid subgenus of the genus Deporaus. The genera Neocoenorrhinus and Piazorhynckites are newly synonymized under Notocyrtus and Agilaus, respectively, in generic and subgeneric rank. A subgeneric name, Aphlorhynehites subgen. -
New Locality Records for Two Species of Protected Weevils, Anagotus Fairburni
Tuhinga 29: 20–34 Copyright © Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa (2018) New locality records for two species of protected weevils, Anagotus fairburni (Brookes, 1932) and Hadramphus stilbocarpae Kuschel, 1971 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), from southern Fiordland, New Zealand Colin M. Miskelly,* Alan J.D. Tennyson** and Colin R. Bishop*** * Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, PO Box 467, Wellington 6140, New Zealand ([email protected]) ** Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, PO Box 467, Wellington 6140, New Zealand *** Department of Conservation, PO Box 29, Te Anau 9600, New Zealand ABSTRACT: The flax weevil Anagotus fairburni (Brookes, 1932) and knobbled weevil Hadramphus stilbocarpae Kuschel, 1971 were among the first New Zealand insects to be granted legal protection. Both are large flightless species with narrow host–plant requirements. Their disjunct distributions are probably the result of predation by introduced rodents, with populations of both having apparently been extirpated by ship rats (Rattus rattus) at one documented site (Taukihepa/Big South Cape Island). Within Fiordland, flax weevils were previously known from a single small island in Breaksea Sound, and knobbled weevils had been reported from five outer islands, from Secretary Island south to Resolution Island. We report the presence of both species in Dusky Sound, and flax weevils in Chalky and Preservation Inlets, based on surveys of 134 islands in 2016 and 2017. Signs of flax weevil feeding were recorded on 56 widely scattered islands, with live or dead animals found on seven of these during the limited search time available. A single knobbled weevil was found at night on a small island in the Seal Islands, southwest of Anchor Island. -

This includes against the termite Coptotermes curvignathus, however the results have varying degrees of success. One reason could be due to the lack of detailed knowledge on the molecular pathogenesis of M. anisopliae. In the current study, the conidial suspension of M. anisopliae isolate PR1 was first inoculated on the C. curvignathus, after which the pathogenesis was examined using two different approaches: electron microscopy and protein expression. At the initiation stage, the progression observed and documented including Citation: Syazwan, S.A.; Lee, S.Y.; adhesion, germination, and penetration of the fungus on the cuticle within 24 h after inoculation.

During the c. 730 years since New Zealand has been settled by people, mammalian predators have invaded many islands and caused local and global extinctions. New Zealand has led international efforts in island restoration. By the late 1980s, translocations of threatened birds to predator-free islands were well under way to safeguard against extinction. Non-native herbivores and predators, such as goats and cats, had been eradicated from some islands. A significant development in island restoration in the mid-1980s was the eradication of rats from small forested islands. This eradication technology has been refined and currently at least 65 islands, including large and remote Campbell (11 216 ha) and Raoul (2938 ha) Islands, have been successfully cleared of rats. -
