New Canadian and Ontario Orthopteroid Records, and an Updated Checklist of the Orthoptera of Ontario
Checklist of Ontario Orthoptera (cont.) JESO Volume 145, 2014 NEW CANADIAN AND ONTARIO ORTHOPTEROID RECORDS, AND AN UPDATED CHECKLIST OF THE ORTHOPTERA OF ONTARIO S. M. PAIERO1* AND S. A. MARSHALL1 1School of Environmental Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario, Canada N1G 2W1 email, [email protected] Abstract J. ent. Soc. Ont. 145: 61–76 The following seven orthopteroid taxa are recorded from Canada for the first time: Anaxipha species 1, Cyrtoxipha gundlachi Saussure, Chloroscirtus forcipatus (Brunner von Wattenwyl), Neoconocephalus exiliscanorus (Davis), Camptonotus carolinensis (Gerstaeker), Scapteriscus borellii Linnaeus, and Melanoplus punctulatus griseus (Thomas). One further species, Neoconocephalus retusus (Scudder) is recorded from Ontario for the first time. An updated checklist of the orthopteroids of Ontario is provided, along with notes on changes in nomenclature. Published December 2014 Introduction Vickery and Kevan (1985) and Vickery and Scudder (1987) reviewed and listed the orthopteroid species known from Canada and Alaska, including 141 species from Ontario. A further 15 species have been recorded from Ontario since then (Skevington et al. 2001, Marshall et al. 2004, Paiero et al. 2010) and we here add another eight species or subspecies, of which seven are also new Canadian records. Notes on several significant provincial range extensions also are given, including two species originally recorded from Ontario on bugguide.net. Voucher specimens examined here are deposited in the University of Guelph Insect Collection (DEBU), unless otherwise noted. New Canadian records Anaxipha species 1 (Figs 1, 2) (Gryllidae: Trigidoniinae) This species, similar in appearance to the Florida endemic Anaxipha calusa * Author to whom all correspondence should be addressed.

Insects As Food and Feed, a New Emerging Agricultural Sector: a Review
Wageningen Academic Journal of Insects as Food and Feed, 2020; 6(1): 27-44 Publishers SPECIAL ISSUE: Insects to feed the world Insects as food and feed, a new emerging agricultural sector: a review A. van Huis Laboratory of Entomology, Wageningen University & Research, Droevendaalsesteeg 1, Wageningen 6708 PB, the Netherlands; [email protected] Received: 30 March 2019 / Accepted: 28 May 2019 © 2019 Wageningen Academic Publishers OPEN ACCESS REVIEW ARTICLE Abstract During the last five years the scientific knowledge on insects as food and feed has been growing exponentially. At the same time, the industrial sector is increasingly engaged in rearing, processing and marketing of edible insects. Considerable attention is given to the black soldier fly as it can convert organic waste streams and transform it into several feed, food and industrial products. The farming of insects has an environmental impact which is lower than that of livestock species. The profitability of industrial production of insects as feed depends very much on the availability and applicability of cheap non-utilised side-streams. Microbial communities and their relationship with insects deserve full attention as it may help in the conversion of organic side streams of low economic value. Nutrition and health benefits for animals and humans need further exploration, also considering that insects have the largest anti-microbial peptide reservoir of all animals. Plant health can also be promoted by using chitin- containing leftover substrates as fertiliser. As insects have only recently been considered as food or feed, legislation trails developments. Therefore, politicians need to be assured that rearing and processing techniques are such that insect products are guaranteed free of chemical and microbial contaminants.

The effects of different feeds on microbial loads and populations in crickets were also studied. The crickets used were third-generation offspring from wild-caught individuals from Sweden, which are adapted to grow in a laboratory environment. The efficiency of rinsing to decrease microbial load was evaluated not obtaining a significant decrease of plating counts for total aerobic counts (TAC) and Enterobacteriaceae. Crickets were divided into three batches and fed different diets (control feed, early-cut red clover hay (ECH), late-cut fresh red clover (LCF)) for 62 days.

A B S T R A C T Insects are animal of extraordinary ecological and economic importance. In these ones, digestive glycosidases are to play a key physiological role in maintenance, survival and reproduction. Moreover, these enzymes were extensively investigated in terms of purification, biochemical and molecular characterization and potential application as tools in glycobiology. This review focuses on amylolytic, cellulolytic and xylanolytic enzymes in insects in order to provide some data on purification strategies, biochemical and molecular properties and potential applications. These digestive glycosidases from insects are generally α-amylase and α-glucosidase, endoglucanase and β-glucosidase, xylanase and β-xylosidase for amylolytic, cellulolytic and xylanolytic enzymes, respectively. Their purifications are done using ammonium sulphate precipitation followed by chromatographic steps as gel filtration, ion-exchange and hydrophobic interaction. Their biochemical characterization indicated generally optimum pH and temperature
