Dr. Victor Patino took seeds from Mexico to Colombia for planting in the Cauca Valley in 1957. In spite of early enthusiasm for this species, it is seldom mentioned in horticultural literature. In 1942, there were no more than 50 trees in southern Florida, only 3 of bearing age.

Rainer* Abstract In the course of monographic studies on the genus Annona (Annonaceae) some cases of nomenclatural and taxonomic changes and need for typifications turned up and are herewith presented. Raimondia is included in Annona due to its general resemblance in morphological and anatomical characters, its species already described as Annona are reestablished, and one new combination is made. The new combinations are Annona cacans WARM, subsp. glabriuscula (R.E.FR.) H.RAWER and Annona deceptrix (WESTRA) H.RAINER. Key words: Annonaceae, Annona, Raimondia, Flora Neotropica, typification. Zusammenfassung Während der monographischen Studien an der Gattung Annona (Annonaceae) wurden einige nomenkla- torische und taxonomische Änderungen evident, sowie in einigen Fällen Typifizierungen notwendig, die hier präsentiert werden. Die Gattung Raimondia wird wegen ihrer weitgehenden Übereinstimmung in mor- phologischen wie anatomischen Merkmalen in Annona eingegliedert. Die schon unter Annona beschriebe- nen Arten werden wiederhergestellt und eine Neukombination durchgeführt. Die beiden Neukombinationen betreffen Annona cacans WARM, subsp. glabriuscula (R.E.FR.) H.RAINER und Annona deceptrix (WESTRA) H.RAINER. Introduction In the course of the studies for a monograph of the neotropical taxa of the genus Annona (Annonaceae), the number of collections increased substantially compared to the mate- rial available to FRIES (1931), the last comprehensive treatment of the genus.

Received 11-IX-2020. Corrected 09-XII-2020. Accepted 17-XII-2020. ABSTRACT. Introduction: Annona macroprophyllata Donn. Smith. (Annonaceae) (syn. Annona diversifolia Saff.) is a valued fruit tree species known as papausa. In Mexico and Central America, this fruit has become an important crop because of its tasty flavor and high pulp content. Its fruits are frequently damaged by the inci- dence of wasps of the genus Bephratelloides Girault (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae), which develop inside the seeds. Objective: to report the interaction of Bephratelloides cubensis Ashmead during its life cycle in fruits of A. macroprophyllata. Methods: We periodically collected fruits in different states of growth recording a) oviposition, b) the moment of evident infection, c) the development of the wasps inside the seeds, and d) their emergence as adults. We also determined the proportion of damaged fruits and seeds. Results: The data indi- cate that wasps preferred to oviposit on fruits with a diameter of less than 8 cm, oviposition was more frequent between 11:00 am and 03:00 pm., and there was 26 % infestation of fruits, and 9 % of seeds.
