The· majority of these students submits a thesis, dissertation .or major project report in the process of completing a qm\lification. This list supersedes Library Papers no 13. The scope .has been widened to include both postgraduate and undergraduate theses and dissertations prepared under the supervisionofa member of the CoJlege and which were deposited in the Librarybefore July J 988. With a few exceptions, on which restrictions. have been placed for various good reasons, theses and other project reports may be consulted in the Library by interested persons. They are also available on interlibrary loan on the understanding that access is limited to consultation within the borrowing library only. In order to protect the rights of authors, there are sometimes limitations on photocopying, but it is usually possible to arrange for prints to be supplied, at cost, for research or study purposes.

  • Strategies for the Eradication Or Control of Gypsy Moth in New Zealand
    Strategies for the eradication or control of gypsy moth in New Zealand Travis R. Glare1, Patrick J. Walsh2*, Malcolm Kay3 and Nigel D. Barlow1 1 AgResearch, PO Box 60, Lincoln, New Zealand 2 Forest Research Associates, Rotorua (*current address Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology, Dublin Road, Galway, Republic of Ireland) 3Forest Research, Private Bag 3020, Rotorua Efforts to remove gypsy moth from an elm, Malden, MA, circa 1891 May 2003 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE The aim of the report is to provide background information that can contribute to developing strategies for control of gypsy moth. This is not a contingency plan, but a document summarising the data collected over a two year FRST-funded programme on biological control options for gypsy moth relevant to New Zealand, completed in 1998 and subsequent research on palatability of New Zealand flora to gypsy moth. It is mainly aimed at discussing control options. It should assist with rapidly developing a contingency plan for gypsy moth in the case of pest incursion.

TEULON The New Zealand flower thrips (Thrips obscuratus (Crawford» is an important pest of stonefruit during flowering and at harvest in New Zealand. The biology and control of this species fonned the basis for this study. A simple method for laboratory rearing is described that facilitated studies on the bionomics of T. obscuratus. Aspects of reproduction, fecundity, requirements for oviposition and development, development rates, temperature thresholds, thennal constants, and lifespan are detailed. T. obscuratus has been reported from at least 223 eqdemic and introduced plant species.

  • Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.

Key words: Lepidoptera, Sesiidae, world literature. Einleitung: Die Literatur über die Schmetterlingsfamilie der Glasflügler (Sesiidae) ist weit verstreut und mittlerweile auch bereits recht umfangreich. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde der Versuch unternommen, die Weltliteratur der Sesiiden zusammenzutragen und aufzulisten. Grundlage dafür waren alle erschienenen Bände des Record of Zoological Literature, Vol. 1-6 (1864-1869), fortgesetzt als Zoological Record, Vol. 7-135 (1870-1998/99) sowie der Lepidopterorum Catalogus, Pars 31, Aegeriidae (DALLA TORRE & STRAND 1925). Darauf aufbauend wurden alle Querverweise in den Literaturverzeichnissen der zitierten Arbeiten geprüft. Aufgenommen wurden nicht nur Originalarbeiten über Sesiidae, sondern auch faunistische Arbeiten, die Angaben über Sesiidae enthalten, da gerade in solchen Arbeiten oft sehr wertvolle Freilandbeobachtungen und Hinweise zur Biologie der entsprechenden Arten zu finden sind. Auf diese Weise sind bisher 3750 Literaturzitate zusammengekommen. Von diesen konnten jedoch erst 1461 (39 %) überprüft werden. Das sind jene Arbeiten, die sich als Original oder Kopie in meiner Bibliothek befinden.

Gleichzeitig soll mit dieser Ar- beit angeregt werden, vorhandene Lücken in der Verbreitung durch gezielte Suche zu schließen, wobei die beigefügten Fotos der Glasflügler eine Bestimmung der jeweili- gen Art unterstützen werden. Der Großteil aller Sesien-Nachweise erfolgte in den Ländern Brandenburg und Berlin in den Jahren nach 1990, maßgeblich gefördert durch die Verfügbarkeit und den Ge- brauch synthetischer Pheromone.

  • Fruit Growing Manual Prepared As Part of the Food for Life Partnership
    Fruit Growing Manual Prepared as part of the Food for Life Partnership Acknowledgements Colette Bond Head of Education and Project Coordinator Stella Cubison Horticultural Writer Julie Tant Writer and Proof Reader Francis Rayns Horticultural Advisor Phil Sumption Philip Turvil Dave Steele Graphic Designer Verity Thompson Illustrator The Health and Safety advice and guidance offered is intended for general information purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice and guidance or training. Garden Organic/Food for Life Partnership disclaim any warranty or representation, expressed or implied about the accuracy, completeness or appropriateness of such Health and Safety advice and guidance for any particular purpose. Introduction This manual gives advice on how to grow fruit in schools using organic methods. Crops covered include apples, pears, strawberries, cane fruits (raspberries, blackberries and hybrid berries) and bush fruits (gooseberries, blackcurrants, redcurrants and whitecurrants). Also included is a section suggesting ways in which the school and wider community can reconnect with the food they eat through growing fruit. We appreciate that teachers and learning support staff are already very busy, with little additional time to devote to high-maintenance crops. So, from a time and maintenance perspective, these are the easiest fruits to grow. Varietal recommendations are based mostly on the ability of the variety to fruit within the school summer or autumn term-time, although precise date of harvest will obviously vary between regions, according to local climatic factors. We have not included a chapter on stone fruits (plums, cherries, apricots etc) as they are a little trickier to grow and many varieties ripen during the school summer holidays.

At the locality Čebovce we found damage on Asimina triloba cv. Prima and Corylus avellana, which is not a typical host plant. 20% of branches on the host plant Asimina triloba cv.
