Brazil is the world’s largest importante para vários países do mundo. O Brasil é o maior producer and exporter of coffee, being responsible for about produtor e exportador de café do mundo, sendo responsável 25% of the world production. It is well known that coffee por, aproximadamente, 25% da produção mundial. Sabe-se plantations are susceptible to more than 850 fungal and insect que as plantações de café são suscetíveis ao ataque de mais de pests. Among these pests, the most important significant 850 tipos de fungos e insetos. Entre essas pragas, a mais importante em todo Brasil é o bicho mineiro do cafeeiro throughout Brazil is the coffee-leaf-miner, [Leucoptera coffeella [Leucoptera coffeella (Guérin-Mèneville & Perrottet, 1842) (Guérin-Mèneville & Perrottet, 1842) (Lepidoptera: (Lepidoptera: Lyonetiidae)].

It is estimated that the loss in yield due to rendimento devido à infestação do bicho mineiro pode chegar infestation by L. coffeella moths can increase to as much as a 80% em plantações onde não existe controle da praga. 80% in areas where the coffee-leaf-miner larvae are not Embora o controle químico seja eficaz para combatê-la, ele controlled.

Also, the apparent existence of temporal clusters of high Coffee (Coffea sp.) grows over seventy incidence in many crop pests suggests that the temporal countries, and therefore is one of the most important distribution of these pests might be influenced by crops in the world. Coffee production, with an annual environmental and weather factors (KREBS, 1999). estimated retail value of over US$ 70 billion, is Thus, basic knowledge about the spatial-temporal surpassed only by oil. Brazil is the leading country in dynamics of the coffee-leaf-miner and a generalist this activity, being responsible for, at about, 25% of predator (predatory wasp) could contribute to the the world coffee production (LEWIN et al., 2004). efficiency of the development of organic management Two species of coffee (Coffea arabica L. in coffee plantations. and Coffea canephora Pierre & Froehner, also known One way to investigate the spatio-temporal as Robusta), are commercially traded, with C. arabic. synchronism of predator and prey is to calculate and comprising approximately 65% of coffee production compare indices of spatial randomness in a temporal (LEWIN et al., 2004). It is well known that both species sequence. If a series of counts of the number of are susceptible to fungal and insect pests REIS et al. individual animals are taken in some areas of defined (2006). Among these pests, one of the most important size and shape then there are available many indices of significant throughout Brazil is the coffee-leaf-miner spatial aggregation. KREBS (1999) advocates that the [Leucoptera coffeella (Guérin Mèneville & Perrottet, Morisita’s index is the best one in this purpose and, 1842) (Lepidoptera: Lyonetiidae)]. therefore this index has been frequently used by The caterpillars of the leaf miner moth attack researchers for pest spatial analysis of .

In recent years remarkable progress has been made towards the understanding of proposed hallmarks of cancer development and treatment. Anticancer drug developments from natural resources are ventured throughout the world. Venoms of several animal species including snake, scorpion, frog, spider etc. and their active components in the form of peptides, enzymes etc. have shown promising therapeutic potential against cancer. In the present review, the anticancer potential of venoms as well as their biochemical derivatives from some vertebrates like snake or frog or some venomous arthropods like scorpion, honey bee, wasps, beetles, caterpillars, ants, centipedes and spiders has been discussed. Some of these molecules are in the clinical trials and may find their way towards anticancer drug development in the near future. The recognition that cancer is fundamentally a genetic disease has opened enormous opportunities for preventing and treating the disease and most of the molecular biological based treatment are cost effective.

Nevertheless, there are few studies on the diversity of social wasps occurring in this region. This study presents a list of social wasps (Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Polistinae) collected actively with attractive bait in three rainforest fragments in Acre. A total of 758 wasps belonging to 11 genera and 36 species were collected. Nineteen species were new distribution records for Acre and three others were new records for Brazil. Based on our results, further investigations should lead to a significant increase in Polistinae diversity in this region, producing information for biogeographic studies and management of natural areas.
