Information about the scientific collections is made available more and more often. The digitisation of such resources allows us to verify their value and share these records with other scientists – and they are usually rich in taxa and unique in the world. Moreover, such information significantly enriches local and global knowledge about biodiversi- ty. The digitisation of the resources of the Zoology Research Group, University of Silesia in Katowice (Poland) allowed presenting a substantial collection of scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha). The collection counts 9369 slide-mounted specimens, about 200 alcohol-preserved samples, close to 2500 dry specimens stored in glass vials and 1319 amber inclu- sions representing 343 taxa (289 identified to species level), 158 genera and 36 families (29 extant and seven extinct). -

The Biology and Ecology of Armored Scales

Hawaii 96822 and Plant Production and Protection Division. Food and Agriculture Organization. Rome. Italy The armored scales (Family Diaspididae) constitute one of the most successful groups of plant-parasitic arthropods and include some of the most damaging and refractory pests of perennial crops and ornamentals. The Diaspididae is the largest and most specialized of the dozen or so currently recognized families which compose the superfamily Coccoidea. A recent world catalog (19) lists 338 valid genera and approximately 1700 species of armored scales. Although the diaspidids have been more intensively studied than any other group of coccids, probably no more than half of the existing forms have been recognized and named. Armored scales occur virtually everywhere perennial vascular plants are found, although a few of the most isolated oceanic islands (e.g. the Hawaiian group) apparently have no endemic representatives and are populated entirely by recent adventives. In general. the greatest numbers and diversity of genera and species occur in the tropics. subtropics. and warmer portions of the temperate zones. With the exclusion of the so-called palm scales (Phoenicococcus. Halimococcus. and their allies) which most coccid taxonomists now place elsewhere (19. 26. 99). the armored scale insects are a biologically and morphologically distinct and Access provided by CNRS-Multi-Site on 03/25/16.

Records of Ceroplastes Gray 1828 in Europe, with an Identification Key to Species in the Palaearctic Region
Bulletin of Insectology 65 (2): 291-295, 2012 ISSN 1721-8861 Records of Ceroplastes Gray 1828 in Europe, with an identification key to species in the Palaearctic Region Kinga FETYKÓ, Ferenc KOZÁR Department of Zoology, Plant Protection Institute, Centre for Agricultural Research, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Budapest, Hungary Abstract The genus Ceroplastes (Hemiptera Coccoidea Coccidae) in Europe is reviewed. Surveys of Hungarian nurseries, greenhouses and flower shops found plants infested with Ceroplastes scale insects. Among them, Ceroplastes rubens Maskell 1893 was identified.

Eco-Climatic Assessment of the Potential Establishment of Exotic Insects in New Zealand
Eco-climatic assessment of the potential establishment of exotic insects in New Zealand A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Lora Peacock Lincoln University 2005 Contents Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of PhD Eco-climatic assessment of the potential establishment of exotic insects in New Zealand Lora Peacock To refine our knowledge and to adequately test hypotheses concerning theoretical and applied aspects of invasion biology, successful and unsuccessful invaders should be compared. This study investigated insect establishment patterns by comparing the climatic preferences and biological attributes of two groups of polyphagous insect species that are constantly intercepted at New Zealand's border. One group of species is established in New Zealand (n = 15), the other group comprised species that are not established (n = 21). In the present study the two groups were considered to represent successful and unsuccessful invaders. To provide background for interpretation of results of the comparative analysis, global areas that are climatically analogous to sites in New Zealand were identified by an eco climatic assessment model, CLIMEX, to determine possible sources of insect pest invasion. It was found that south east Australia is one of the regions that are climatically very similar to New Zealand. Furthermore, New Zealand shares 90% of its insect pest species with that region. South east Australia has close trade and tourism links with New Zealand and because of its proximity a new incursion in that analogous climate should alert biosecurity authorities in New Zealand. -

By K. BORATYNSKI (Mit 1 Textabbildung) Manuskript eingelangt am 2. Oktober 1967 The collections of the Coccoidea in the Naturhistorisches Museum in Vienna, — most of which are preserved in the dry state, — comprise the valu- able original material of some species described and discussed by SIG-NORET in his „Essai sur les Cochenilles" (1868—1877). I am very grateful to the Director, Professor Dr. MAX BEIER, for the loan of 13 samples of various Diaspis spp. from the collections (case No. 22), with permission to make the necessary microscopical preparations. Six of these samples were identified by SIGNORET and most of them referred to in his Essai Pt. 5 (1869); three were determined by LOEW, and four had no specific identification. Except for one sample which consisted of a glass tube with the scales removed from the host, the specimens were preserved on parts of the host-plants pinned in the collection case. -
Sucking Pests of Pineapple and Their Management- a Review

Yadav; 5Rajesh Kumar 1Dr. Kalam Agricultural College, Kishanganj 2,3,4,5 Bhola Paswan Shastri Agricultural College, Purnea (Bihar Agricultural University, Sabour, Bhagalpur-813 210) *Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract: Pineapple herbaceous, perennial plant of the tropical and subtropical area. Pineapples grow as a small shrub and the plant is normally propagated from the offset produced at the top of the fruit or from side shoot. The fruit are eaten fresh where available and in canned form worldwide which is the only source of bromelain, an enzyme used in pharmaceuticals and as meat tenderising agent. Common sucking pests infesting vegetative propagules are mealybugs, scale and pineapple red mites. The successful management of pineapple pests is based on their correct identification and an understanding of how damage occurs. Amongst the sucking pest mealy bugs are the utmost important insect pest of pineapple in many countries while others may reach threshold levels in certain favourable conditions causing serious crop damage. Keywords: Pineapple, Sucking Pests, Management Introduction: Pineapple (Ananascomosus), is self-sterile, herbaceous, monocotyledonous, perennial plant of the family Bromeliaceae. Pineapple is originated in tropical and subtropical America and has been introduced to all other places. Pineapples cultivated as a small shrub; the separate flowers of the unpollinated plant fuse to form a multiple fruit. The plant is normally propagated from the offset produced at the top of the fruit, or from side shoot and typically mature within a year. -
