Car- retera México-Texcoco km 36.5, Montecillo, Texcoco, Estado de México, C.P. 56230 Abstract The metathoracic scent gland of 25-day-old adults of both sexes of the leaf-footed bug, Leptoglossus zonatus (Dallas) (Heteroptera: Coreidae), are described based on optical microscopy analysis. No sexual dimorphism was observed in the glandular composition of this species. The gland is located in the anteroventral corner of the metathoracic pleura between the middle and posterior coxal pits. The opening to the outside of the gland is very wide and permanently open as it lacks a protective membrane. In the internal part, there is a pair of metathoracic glands that consist of piles of intertwined and occasionally bifurcated cellular tubes or columns. These glands discharge their pheromonal contents into the reservoir through a narrow cuticular tube. The reservoir connects with the vestibule via two opposite and assembled cuticular folds that can separate muscularly in order to allow the flow of liquid away from the insect. The external part consists of an ostiole from which the pheromone is emitted.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with edjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected teat the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

  • An Invasive Species: Leptoglossus Occidentalis (Heidemann) How Does It Affect Forestry Activities?
    Kastamonu Univ., Journal of Forestry Faculty, 2017, 17 (3): 531-542 Research Note IFS 2016, Special Issue Doi:10.17475/kastorman.292220 An invasive species: Leptoglossus occidentalis (Heidemann) how does it affect forestry activities? Salih PARLAK Bursa Technical University, Faculty of Forestry, Bursa, TURKEY [email protected] Received Date: 14.02.2017 Accepted Date: 09.06.2017 Abstract Aim of study: Leptoglossus occidentalis which is first identified by Heidemann at North America in 1910 spread quickly after WW II. Although it was first seen in 1999 in Europe has swept the continent in 10 years. First damage observation in Turkey reported in Kozak Basin of Bergama on cones of stone pine trees which has valuable edible seeds. The seed yield loss started in 2005 and reached to a peak in 2009. In addition to high early age conelet loss, rate of emptiness of cones has sometimes reached to 90 %. The bug causes decrement in seed formation and seed germination ability significantly by causing early stage conelet loss and destroying endosperm parts of mature cones. In respect of forestry activities decrement of seed resources caused due to bug damage will have negative impact on natural regeneration activities in Turkey and probably will end in failure. In this study, it was aimed to determine the severity of damage caused by the collecting of cone samples from the stone pine forests in our country. Area of study: Without making any discrimination either planted or natural or any altitude or any aspect, stone pine cones have been collected from 42 localities which are distributed all around Turkey.

  • Western Conifer Seed Bug Leptoglossus Occidentalis Heidemann; Family: Coreidae
    IDL INSECT DIAGNOSTIC LABORATORY Cornell University, Dept. of Entomology, 2144 Comstock Hall, Ithaca NY 14853-2601 Western Conifer Seed Bug Leptoglossus occidentalis Heidemann; Family: Coreidae Western conifer seed bug (adult). Actual size: about 3/4 inch long. Photo by David Cappaert, Michigan State University, Bugwood.org Problem The Western conifer seed bug has become a nuisance pest in the Northeast. The bug has the habit of entering buildings at the onset of cold weather in the late summer or early fall as it seeks a protected site to spend the winter. These bugs do not bite or sting, nor do they cause damage to the home. They will, however, give off a pungent odor if you handle them, which is part of the insect's defensive strategy. They also may make a buzzing sound when flying. The range of the western conifer seed bug has been expanding. In 1992 we began to get reports from western New York State about these rather large insects in homes. The first documented collection of this species in New York State was from an Orchard Park (Erie County) home in January 1990. By February of 1992 Dr. Wayne Gall of the Buffalo Museum of Science had received specimens from 9 counties of western and central New York. By 1994 we were seeing samples from Long Island and the lower Hudson Valley region. It is now found throughout the state. This species was first described in 1910 from California, and was reported in Iowa in 1956. By the 1970's it was established in Wisconsin and Illinois, and by the mid-1980's was found in Minnesota, southeastern Michigan and southwestern Ontario.

The contents of each chapter generally reflect the special interests of the contributors.

  • (Compositae) Endemic to the Galapagos Islands!
    Pacific Science (1995), vol. 49, no. 1: 17-30 © 1995 by University of Hawai'i Press. All rights reserved Phytogeography and Ecology of Scalesia (Compositae) Endemic to the Galapagos Islands! 2 SYUZO ITow ABSTRACT: Scalesia (Compositae), a genus endemic to the Galapagos Is­ lands, consists of 12 shrubby species distributed in the lowland dry zone and three tree species found in the mid-elevation moist zone. They are completely allopatric in distribution. All the species have herbaceous traits: fast growth, soft wood, large pith at the center of trunk, and flowering within 1 yr after germination (in greenhouse). The tree species Scalesia pedunculataHook. f. is shade-intolerant and heliophilous, and predominates as a monoculture in the moist zone of the four larger high-elevation islands. In ecological succession, it functions as pioneer, successor, and climax canopy plant. Even at climax or maturity of this monodominant forest, the canopy is not accompanied by young generations beneath owing to its shade-intolerance. The canopy popula­ tion of postmature forest dies back nearly synchronously. A new generation then develops to build new forest. The progression from germination to ma­ turity, and further to senescence and die back, is a self-cyclic succession, with­ out change of dominant species. Over much of its range, S. pedunculata is en­ dangered by the effects of past agricultural exploitation or heavy browsing by free-ranging goats, pigs, and donkeys; however, the population on the north side of Isla Santa Cruz has been preserved in good condition in the Galapagos National Park. THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS are located on the a mew species.
