  • Studies on the Immature Stages of Oxya Velox (Fabricius) a Rice Grasshopper from District Jamshoro, Sindh, Pakistan
    SULTANA ET AL (2012), FUUAST J. BIOL., 2(1): 57-62 STUDIES ON THE IMMATURE STAGES OF OXYA VELOX (FABRICIUS) A RICE GRASSHOPPER FROM DISTRICT JAMSHORO, SINDH, PAKISTAN RIFFAT SULTANA*, BARKAT ALI BUGHIO, WAHEED ALI AND HAJI KHAN Department of Zoology, University of Sindh, Jamshoro *Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Grasshoppers are polyphagous insect pest. They cause considerable damage to many precious crops. Amongst these pest species Oxya is reported as severe pest to rice in many countries of world including Pakistan. The immature stages of Oxya velox (F.) has been studied in this paper. Oxya comprises on sixth nymphal instars. These hoppers appear to be more epidemic than the adults, because they have no functional wings and are unable to fly and all the time they eat; hence cause more damage than the adult. In addition to this, morphological description of various nymphal instars, identification key and measurements of different body parts are also provided. This will, hopefully be useful in plants protection. Introduction Rice is the world most important food crop second to wheat, feeding over 2 billion people in Asia alone (Karim and Riazuddin 1999). The rice plant is vulnerable to many insects from its sowing to harvest. Amongst the pests Oxya species (mostly called small grasshopper) are reported as sporadic pest of rice in all developmental stages i.e. seeding, tillering, stem elongation etc. Grasshopper at times, occurs in very large numbers. They have great mobility so they migrate from one place to another. Many grasshoppers’ species are occasionally found in shady fields but rarely cause significant damage other than along field borders (Irshad, 1977; Zafar; 1986).

Although the majority of consumed insects are gathered in forest habitats, mass-rearing systems are being developed in many countries. Insects offer a significant opportunity to merge traditional knowledge and modern science to improve human food security worldwide. This publication describes the contribution of insects to food security and examines future prospects for raising insects at a commercial scale to improve food and feed production, diversify diets, and support livelihoods in both developing and developed countries. It shows the many traditional and potential new uses of insects for direct human consumption and the opportunities for and constraints to farming them for food and feed. It examines the body of research on issues such as insect nutrition and food safety, the use of insects as animal feed, and the processing and preservation of insects and their products. It highlights the need to develop a regulatory framework to govern the use of insects for food security. And it presents case studies and examples from around the world. Edible insects are a promising alternative to the conventional production of meat, either for direct human consumption or for indirect use as feedstock.

Das, A. Ganguly and P. Haldar* Entomology research unit, Department of Zoology, Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan, West Bengal, 731235 India Abstract Acridids could be an alternative nonconventional protein source for livestock industries like poultry farms. For a high acridid biomass production, selection of acridid species along with their suitable food plants is essential. The present experiment was conducted by rearing of two common Indian acridids, Oxya hyla and Spathosternum pras- iniferum, to estimate which one could produce higher annual biomass when fed on three food plants, Dactyloctenium aegyptium, Brachiaria mutica and Cynodon dactylon, to determine the most favorable food plant. Fecundity, fertility, nymphal mortality and sex ratio of both acridid species fed with three different plants were estimated for the annual biomass production in terms of number. Annual biomass production in terms of wet weight, dry weight and energy content were also estimated. Among the two acridid species, O. hyla showed higher values for fecundity, fertility and both wet and dry body weight; and lower values for nymphal mortality in all the three food plant fed sets. Among the three food plants, B. mutica was found to be the most suitable for annual biomass production of both acridids. It was concluded that mass rearing of O.

Abstract Chromosomes with detailed karyotypic information (nature, number, size, relative length, length of X- chromosome, nature of X-chromosome) and C-banding patterns of six species of grasshoppers belonging to sub-families- Tryxalinae, Oedipodinae and Catantopinae are discussed. The karyotypes comprises of acrocentric chromosomes with complement number 2n=23 (male). Constitutive heterochromatin distribution was found at centomeric, interstitial, terminal sites along with thick and thin bands among all the species except in ACRIDA TURRITA, which possessed only centromeric C-bands. The number and location of C-bands in Acridids exhibit both intra – and interspecific variations. In the present communication the chromosome complement and C-banding patterns are analyzed for further differences between congeneric species and among genera belonging to the same sub-family. Keywords: Acrididae, Orthoptera, chromosome complement, C-banding.

    Basic Arthropod Taxonomy Arthropods include the insects, spiders, mites, ticks, ostracods, copepods, scorpions, centipedes, shrimps, and crayfishes. Of these, insects make up > 50% of all the nominal species of organisms in the world. Insects and its allies or relatives whether pests or beneficials are part of rice ecosystems. Basic arthropod identification is important in ecological research to understand interactions, which are vital for developing better pest management tools and strategies. This manual will focus on: • Identification of different arthropod groups. • Identification of major diagnostic features of the most common and important arthropod orders, families and species especially insects and spiders in the rice agricultural landscape using taxonomic keys. • Handling and preserving arthropods for identification.

    RESEARCH PAPER Environment Volume : 3 | Issue : 8 | Aug 2013 | ISSN - 2249-555X An alternative host preference study by Oxya hyla hyla (Orthoptera: Acrididae)- a non insecticidal method of pest management KEYWORDS Alternative host, Oxya hyla hyla, Pest, Feeding preference, Non insecticidal Manika Das D.

Ray Department of Ecology and Environmental Science, Department of Ecology and Environmental Science, Assam (Central) University, Silchar, India Assam (Central) University, Silchar, India ABSTRACT Sixteen alternative host of O. hyla hyla were recorded from three study sites of Cachar District. Among them the most preferred food plants (8 nos.) were assessed against the pest species along with one rice cultivar (main host) to determine the per cent of feeding preference. It was found that Cynodon dactylon with 84.84% preference proved to be the highest feeding preferred host by the grasshopper species followed by rice cultivar (Narayan) (89.67%). Whereas A. compressus (72.55%) attained the second preferred host status. Most of the food plants showed preference values ranging from 51- 100 according to 0- 9 scale score of standard evaluation system. ANOVA indicated significant dif- ference (p<0.05) in feeding preference by O. hyla hyla among all the food plants. Study proved that there alternative hosts has the high potentiality to manage the grasshopper species. Imperata cylindrica was proved to be the least preferred hosts (24.04%). Introduction of leaves was calculated before and after feeding by graph Insects are the major components of animal diversity in paper method. Three replications were followed for each terms of number of species in most of the habitats and host plant preference.

  • Grasshoppers of the Mascarene Islands: New Species and New Records (Orthoptera, Caelifera)
    Zootaxa 3900 (3): 399–414 ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ Article ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2015 Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.3900.3.4 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:520442A1-0742-46A8-B6ED-021962DCE451 Grasshoppers of the Mascarene Islands: new species and new records (Orthoptera, Caelifera) SYLVAIN HUGEL INCI UPR3212 CNRS, Université de Strasbourg 5, rue Blaise Pascal F-67084 Strasbourg Cedex E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The grasshopper fauna of Mascarene Islands (Mauritius, Rodrigues and La Réunion), in South Western Indian ocean is examined. Numerous field surveys and examination of museum specimens recorded twenty species of Grasshoppers on the archipelago. Five of them are new records, including a new species: Odontomelus ancestrus n. sp. restricted to Round Island, a 2 km² islet North to Mauritius. Despite intensive searching, five of the non endemic species once recorded on the archipelago have not been recorded again and might correspond to temporary settlements/introductions. A key to Mas- carene grasshoppers is given. Key words: Orthoptera, endemism, island, extinction, Mauritius, Rodrigues, Réunion Introduction Whereas Ensifera, particularly Grylloidea, can display an impressive diversity on remote tropical oceanic islands (Matyot 1998; Otte 1994; Otte and Cowper 2007), Caelifera are usually less represented, but they display a similarly high rate of endemism (e.g. Peck 1996; Zimmerman 1948; Matyot 1998; Hebard 1933; Evenhuis 2007). The Mascarene Archipelago is a group of islands in the South Western Indian Ocean, consisting of Mauritius, Réunion and Rodrigues (Fig. 1). When the grasshopper fauna of Mascarene Islands was last examined, only eight species were recorded, two of them being considered endemic to one of the island (Vinson 1968).
