  • Discovering the True Chrysoperla Carnea (Insecta: Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) Using Song Analysis, Morphology, and Ecology
    SYSTEMATICS Discovering the True Chrysoperla carnea (Insecta: Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) Using Song Analysis, Morphology, and Ecology 1 2 3 4 CHARLES S. HENRY, STEPHEN J. BROOKS, PETER DUELLI, AND JAMES B. JOHNSON Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT 06269Ð3043 Ann. Entomol. Soc. Am. 95(2): 172Ð191 (2002) ABSTRACT What was once considered a single Holarctic species of green lacewing, Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens), has recently been shown to be a complex of many cryptic, sibling species, the carnea species group, whose members are reproductively isolated by their substrate-borne vibrational songs. Because species in the complex are diagnosed by their song phenotypes and not by morphology, the current systematic status of the type species has become a problem. Here, we attempt to determine which song species corresponds to StephensÕ 1835 concept of C. carnea, originally based on a small series of specimens collected in or near London and currently housed in The Natural History Museum. With six European members of the complex from which to choose, we narrow the Þeld to just three that have been collected in England: C. lucasina (Lacroix), Cc2 Ôslow-motorboatÕ, and Cc4 ÔmotorboatÕ. Ecophysiology eliminates C. lucasina, because that species remains green during adult winter diapause, while Cc2 and Cc4 share with StephensÕ type a change to brownish or reddish color in winter. We then describe the songs, ecology, adult morphology, and larval morphology of Cc2 and Cc4, making statistical comparisons between the two species. Results strongly reinforce the conclusion that Cc2 and Cc4 deserve separate species status. In particular, adult morphology displays several subtle but useful differences between the species, including the shape of the basal dilation of the metatarsal claw and the genital ÔlipÕ and ÔchinÕ of the male abdomen, color and coarseness of the sternal setae at the tip of the abdomen and on the genital lip, and pigment distribution on the stipes of the maxilla.

Box 77175.435, Rafsanjan, Iran Key words. Chrysopidae, lacewings, Chrysoperla lucasina, Psylloidea, Agonoscena pistaciae, pistachio psylla, population density, weeds, intrinsic rate of increase, theoretical threshold, food consumption, biological control Abstract. Species in the carnea complex of the common green lacewing are predators of the common pistachio psylla, Agonoscena pistaciae in both cultivated pistachio plantations and on wild pistachio plants in Iran. The seasonal occurrence of common green lacewings was monitored in pistachio orchards from 2007 to 2008. In addition, the effect of different temperature regimes on prei- maginal development, survival and prey consumption of the predatory lacewing Chrysoperla lucasina fed on A. pistaciae nymphs were studied under controlled conditions. The adults of common green lacewings first appeared on pistachio trees in mid April and were most abundant in early July, decreased in abundance in summer and increased again in October. The relative density of common green lacewings was higher in pistachio orchards where the ground was covered with herbaceous weeds than in those without weeds. In the laboratory females of C. lucasina laid an average of 1085 eggs over 60 days at 22.5°C. The maximum prey consumption occurred at 35°C when the larvae consumed 1812 fourth instar psyllid nymphs during their larval period.

It is cultivated in 42 countries in South Asia, North and Central America, the Mediterranean region, West Asia and North and East Africa. In recent years, it has become an important crop in Australia, Canada and the USA. Nearly 60 insect species are known to feed on chickpea (Reed et al., 1987) (Table 25.1). The important insect pests damaging chickpea in different regions are: ● Wireworms: false wireworm – Gonocephalum spp.; ● Cutworm: black cutworm – A. ipsilon (Hfn.) and turnip moth – A. segetum Schiff.; ● Termite: Microtermes obesi (Holm.) and Odontotermes sp.; ● Leaf-feeding caterpillars: cabbage looper – Trichoplusia ni (Hub.), leaf caterpillar – S.

In the present study, we combine conventional analytical approaches with DNA meta-barcoding to identify pollen grains attached to migrating adults of the turnip moth, Agrotis segetum (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Northeast China. More specifically, pollen grains were dislodged from 2566 A. segetum long-distance migrants captured on Beihuang Island (Bohai Sea) and identified to many (plant) species level.
