A catalogue of the current valid 111 species and 3 subspecies of Pyrrhalta of the world is presented. The compilation includes the complete taxonomic synonymy, geographical distribution and host plant record for each species. Key words: Coleoptera; Chrysomelidae; Galerucinae; Pyrrhalta; catalogue CLC number: Q969.512.4 Document code: A Article ID: 1000-7482(2010)S0-0119-18 The genus Pyrrhalta was erected by Joannis (1866), and treated as a subgenus of Galeruca. Weise (1924) elevated it to a genus level. It is one of the most species-rich genera of Galerucinae in the world. There are 111 species and 3 subspecies distributed in Palearctic Region, Oriental Region, Australian Region and Nearctic Region, among them, 57 species are recorded in China. Some of them are severe pests of landscape trees, for example, Pyrrhalta aenescens (Fairmaire) and Pyrrhalta maculicollis (Motschulsky) are the main pests of elm tree. In northern China, the two species mentiond above are distributed abroadly and are usually sympatric occurring. Larvae and adults feed on leaves, and can finish off all the leaves of the tree when they occur severely. Another species, Pyrrhalta humeralis (Chen), is the important pest of Viburnum spp. and Ligustrum calleryanum Decne., and caused heavy loss of landscape gardening in China. In present paper, a catalogue of the current valid 111 species and 3 subspecies of Pyrrhalta of the world is presented. The compilation includes the complete taxonomic synonymy, geographical distribution and host plant record for each species.

  • Working List of Prairie Restricted (Specialist) Insects in Wisconsin (11/26/2015)
    Working List of Prairie Restricted (Specialist) Insects in Wisconsin (11/26/2015) By Richard Henderson Research Ecologist, WI DNR Bureau of Science Services Summary This is a preliminary list of insects that are either well known, or likely, to be closely associated with Wisconsin’s original native prairie. These species are mostly dependent upon remnants of original prairie, or plantings/restorations of prairie where their hosts have been re-established (see discussion below), and thus are rarely found outside of these settings. The list also includes some species tied to native ecosystems that grade into prairie, such as savannas, sand barrens, fens, sedge meadow, and shallow marsh. The list is annotated with known host(s) of each insect, and the likelihood of its presence in the state (see key at end of list for specifics). This working list is a byproduct of a prairie invertebrate study I coordinated from1995-2005 that covered 6 Midwestern states and included 14 cooperators. The project surveyed insects on prairie remnants and investigated the effects of fire on those insects. It was funded in part by a series of grants from the US Fish and Wildlife Service. So far, the list has 475 species. However, this is a partial list at best, representing approximately only ¼ of the prairie-specialist insects likely present in the region (see discussion below). Significant input to this list is needed, as there are major taxa groups missing or greatly under represented. Such absence is not necessarily due to few or no prairie-specialists in those groups, but due more to lack of knowledge about life histories (at least published knowledge), unsettled taxonomy, and lack of taxonomic specialists currently working in those groups.

The internal sac of P. maculicollis bears hand saw-like spines, which are arranged in a row. Healing wounds were found on the vagina of this species, whose females were collected in the field during a repro- ductive season. However, the number of the wounds is low in comparison to the number of the spines.

Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) Abstract Increasing forest management resulting from bark beetle attack in British Columbia's forests has created a need to assess the impact of single species management on local insect biodiversity. In the Fort St James Forest District, in central British Columbia, Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii Franco) (Fd) grows at the northern limit of its North American range. At the district level the species is rare (representing 1% of timber stands), and in the early 1990's growing populations of the Douglas-fir beetle (Dendroctonus pseudotsuage Hopkins) threatened the loss of all mature Douglas-fir habitat in the district.

  • Oviposition by Pyrrhalta Viburni (Paykull) on Dead Plant Material: Successful Reproductive Strategy Or Maladaptive Behavior?1
    Oviposition by Pyrrhalta viburni (Paykull) on dead plant material: successful reproductive strategy or maladaptive behavior?1 Gaylord A. Desurmont2, Charissa M. Fritzen3, and Paul A. Weston4 Abstract. Viburnum leaf beetle, Pyrrhalta viburni (Paykull, 1799), is a Eurasian chrysomelid recently introduced to North America, where it has become a major landscape pest. P. v ibur ni deposits eggs in the terminal twigs of infested viburnum shrubs, in small cavities that are then covered by the female with a frass-like secre- tion. In the fi eld, fresh P. v ibur ni egg masses are sometimes laid on dead plant mate- rial, prompting the current study to investigate the frequency and proximate causes of this behavior. In the fi eld, P. v ibur ni females were found to lay signifi cantly more eggs on live twigs than on dead twigs, and to lay more eggs on dead twigs that had been infested the previous growing season and contained remains of old egg masses than on non-infested dead twigs. In laboratory choice-tests, females laid signifi cantly more eggs on dead twigs if they contained remains of old egg masses, but did not show preferences between young and old infested twigs. We conclude that the pres- ence of remains of egg masses deposited the previous growing season is stimulatory to P. v ibur ni females and triggers oviposition on dead plant material. Keywords. Pyrrhalta viburni, oviposition behavior, insect-plant interactions, repro- ductive strategy, site selection. 1. Introduction Viburnum leaf beetle, Pyrrhalta viburni (Paykull, 1799), is a chrysomelid belonging to the subfamily Galerucinae and the tribe Galerucini.

Lythraria salicariae was recorded for the first time from Turkey during field sampling conducted in olive grove areas of various regions in the Antalya Province. A total of 26 flea beetle species classified in 10 genera were collected by beating from olive trees, including L. salicariae. This contribution adds taxonomic and zoogeographic knowledge about L. salicariae, and brings the actual number of flea beetle species reported in Turkey to 345 across 23 genera. Keywords: Alticini, Antalya, Lythraria, new record, olive trees, Turkey Özet Yaprak böceklerinin Alticini (Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae) tribusuna ait monotipik bir cins olan Lythraria Bedel, Palearktik bölgede yayılış gösteren tek bir türe, L. salicariae (Paykull, 1800), sahiptir. Antalya ilinin farklı bölgelerindeki zeytin bahçelerinde gerçekleştirilen örneklemeler sırasında, Lythraria salicariae Türkiye için ilk kez kaydedilmiştir. Lythraria ile birlikte toplam 10 cinse ait 26 yaprak pire böceği türü zeytin ağaçlarından darbe yöntemiyle toplanmıştır. Bu çalışmayla Lythraria salicariae’nın taksonomik ve zoocoğrafik verilerine yeni katılımlar sağlanmış, ayrıca Türkiye’den rapor edilen toplam yaprak pire böceği tür sayısı 23 cinse ait 345 tür olarak güncellenmiştir.

    Beetle penis field investigations lead to new species discovery in Norway 12 May 2020, by Frid Kvalpskarmo Hansen different. The purpose for that is to provide reproductive isolation—in short, to prevent related species from mating. "Sometimes I use the technique of preparing insect genitals to accurately determine a species right away. The shape of the beetle genitalia functions almost like a key for identifying insects," says Ødegaard. He is an associate professor at NTNU's Department of Natural History.
