TI m 'a encadré, aidé et conseillé pendant tout le processus académique. Mais il m' a également apporté la curiosité et une culture scientifique. Enfin, je ne remercierais jamais assez Eric pour son côté très humain, sa compréhension et pour m'avoir toujours soutenu pendant les moments personnels difficiles. Je remercie également chaleureusement mes codirecteurs, Gérald Chouinard et Daniel Cormier qui m 'ont supporté pendant ces très longues années et qui m'ont apporté une expertise essentielle. Nos échanges nous ont permis d'apporter un regard différent sur le système et nous ont parfois aider à tamponner nos ardeurs. Je tiens également à remercier tous les membres de mes différents jurys d'évaluation: Timothy Work durant le projet de thèse, V al érie F oumier lors de d'examen de synthèse et enfin Cristina Castafié, Caroline Pro v ost et Pierre Drapeau pour l'évaluation de cette thèse. Je remercie également le Ministère de 1'Agriculture , des Pêcheries et de 1' Alimentation du Québec (MAPAQ), programme de soutien à l'innovation en agroalimentaire (PSIA), pour le soutien financier du projet. La fin de cette thèse de doctorat a été rendue possible grâce à une bourse institutionnelle de perfectionnement long terme en tant que chargé de cours et m 'a permis de tem1iner dans des conditions optimales. Je remercie également la faculté des sciences pour l'octroi de deux bourses d'excellence (FARE). Je remercie aussi l'Organisation Internationale de Lutte Biologique (IOBC) pour la bourse de mobilité qui m 'a permis de participer à 1' International Symposium Ecolo gy of Aphidophaga 11 , en Italie. L'idée de ce projet n'aurait jamais germé sans Manon Laroche qui nous a alerté des problèmes que causait la punaise de la molène dans certains vergers au Québec. Merci 111 également à Yvon Morin pour les conseils afin de trouver des tétranyques. Enfm je remercie les producteurs Philippe La porte et Pierre Villeneuve pour m'avoir permis de faire un suivi des populations dans leurs vergers. Je tiens également à remercier les membres de l'Institut de Recherche et de· Développement en Agroenvironnement (IRDA) pour leur aide et leur collaboration dans le verger expérimental à Saint-Bnmo-de-Montarville, notamment Sylvie Bellerose, Francine Pelletier, Jocelyn Tardif, et Franz Vanoosthuyse.

Je tiens également à remercier énorn1ément mes meilleurs amis Eric Au Yeung et Hery Ratsima pour être toujours présents et pour m'avoir supporté lors des moments difficiles de remise en question. AVANT-PROPOS Cette thèse de doctorat comprend une introduction (chapitre 1), quatre chapitres rédigés sous forme d'articles scientifiques et une discussion générale (chapitre 6). Les chapitres 2 et 3 sont publiés sous forme d'article scientifique. Le chapitre 4 est en préparation pour soumission. Le chapitre 5 a été soumis à une revue scientifique. L'introduction, le chapitre 3 et la conclusion générale sont rédigés en français. Les chapitres 2, 4 et 5 sont rédigés en anglais. Lors de ce travail, j'ai effectué toutes les expérimentations, les analyses statistiques des données, ainsi que la rédaction des quatre chapitres à titre de premier auteur. Mon directeur de recherche, Éric Lucas, a assuré les moyens fmanciers et logistiques pour mener à bien ce projet. Mes co-directeurs de recherche, Gérald Chouinard et Daniel Cormier, ont assuré les moyens logistiques pour la réalisation des expériences sur le terrain. Tous les trois ont participé au développement des idées et de l'approche expérimentale, ainsi qu'aux discussions concernant les analyses de données et les résultats de chacun des chapitres. Ils m'ont accompagné lors de chacune des différentes étapes de rédaction et ils sont co-auteurs de chacun des quatre articles. Cette recherche contribue grandement à 1'avancement des connaissances fondamentales et appliquées. 1. Cette étude permet de mieux comprendre le comportement trophique complexe de la punaise de la molène, notamment pour chacun des cinq stades larvaires du cycle vital. 2. Cette thèse est la première étude à tester l'influence des proies extraguildes et des prédateurs intraguildes sur la phytophagie d'un omnivore véritable. La phytophagie n'est pas uniquement évaluée par l'observation des dommages économiques sur fruit, mais également par l'observation du comportement nutritionnel de la punaise (piqûres de nutrition). v 3. Les résultats de cette thèse contribuent également à une meilleure compréhension du statut ravageur/bénéfique de la punaise de la molène en vergers de pommiers. 4. Enfm, l' ensemble des résultats de cette thèse a pemlis la mise sur pied d'une charte de gestion (encore préliminaire) de la plmaise de la molène en vergers de pommiers au Québec.

Therefore, both sides of the forewings of Aleyrodes proletella were studied using histological methods, light and scanning electron microscopes. Studies confrm the occurrence of only three veins on forewings: the costal, radial and anal ones; only the anal vein lies under the anal fold. A campaniform and trichoid sensilla are present. The shape of wax secretions and wing margins is described. The comparative analysis of forewing structures contains new data for all Sternorrhyncha infraorders. The current results confrm the monophyly of the group, but place aphids closer to psyllids. The analysis of forewing base indicates that its general model is similar among Sternorrhyncha, but there occur some intergroup diferences.

  • Corrections for the Hemiptera: Heteroptera of Canada and Alaska
    J. ENTOMOL. SOC. BRIT. COLUMBIA 115, DECEMBER 2018 !25 Corrections for the Hemiptera: Heteroptera of Canada and Alaska G.G.E. SCUDDER1 ABSTRACT A total of 175 changes to the current checklist of Hemiptera: Heteroptera of Canada and Alaska are reported. Eighty deletions, eighty-eight nomenclature changes, and seven spelling corrections are detailed. In addition, comments are given on Anthocoris tomentosus Péricart, Orius diespeter Herring, O. tristicolor (White), and Tupiocoris agilis (Uhler). Key words: Changes, checklist, Heteroptera, Canada, Alaska INTRODUCTION Maw et al. (2000) published a checklist of the Hemiptera of Canada and Alaska, giving details of the occurrence of the species of Heteroptera. Since then, there have been a large number of taxonomic changes that have resulted in deletions and nomenclature modifications for many of the taxa. In addition, a few spelling errors have been noted. Details of the 175 changes are outlined here, and comments on four taxa are given. The order of taxa follows Maw et al. (2000), but species are listed in alphabetical order in each family.

  • The Miridae (Hemiptera : Heteroptera) Associated with Noble
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Gary Michael Cooper for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology presented in January 1981 Title: The Miridae (Hemiptera:Heteroptera) Associated with Noble Fir, Abies procera Rehd. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: /- Dr. John D. Lattin The Miridae, or plant bugs, associated with noble fir, Abies procera Rehd., are discussed. Thirty six species of the Miridae were collected from noble fir. Twenty five of these species are considered only "visitors" to noble fir. The study does not deal with these species. Noble fir is a host of the eleven other species: Deraeocoris incertus Knight, Deraeocoris piceicola Knight, Dichrooscytus sp. A, Orthotylus sp. A, Paradacerla formicina (Parshley), Phytocoris neglectus Knight, Phytocoris sp. A, Pinalitus solivagus (Van Duzee), Plagiognathus sp. A and Psallus spp. A and B. Fifth instar larvae and the adults of these eleven species were examined and described. The plant bugs were collected from the noble fir foliage every seven to fourteen days from early May to mid-October,1979 from Marys Peak in the Oregon Coast Range and the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest in the Oregon Cascade Mountains. Distributional data were added from collecting trips in Oregon on Grass Mountain and around Mt. Hood and in Washington state at White Pass and Stevens Pass. The larvae and adults of the eleven noble fir mirid species were observed in a growth chamber. Feeding observations were recorded for eight species. The larvae and adults were examined for external signs of insect parasitism. Sticky traps placed on the boles of noble fir trees on Marys Peak collected very few mirids, suggestingthat the mirids remain on the foliage and branches.

  • Annotated List of the Species-Group Taxa Described in Combination with Chermes Linnaeus 1758 (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha) Colin Favret1, David Ouvrard2, and Douglas J
    TRANSACTIONS RESEARCH ARTICLE TAES 140: 67-81 AMERICAN ISSO 0002-8320 ENTOMOLOGICAL http://taes.entomology-aes.org/ SOCIETY Annotated list of the species-group taxa described in combination with Chermes Linnaeus 1758 (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha) Colin Favret1, David Ouvrard2, and Douglas J. Williams2 1 University of Montreal, Department of Biological Sciences, Biodiversity Centre, 4101 rue Sherbrooke est, Montreal QC, H1X 2B2, Canada (email: [email protected]); 2 The Natural History Museum, Department of Life Sciences, Cromwell Road, London, SW7 5BD, United Kingdom (emails: Ouvrard, [email protected]; Williams, [email protected]) ABSTRACT The genus-group name Chermes Linnaeus 1758 has been suppressed, but an accounting of the various nominal species described in combination with it has not been presented until now. Nominal species of Chermes are found in 13 families of three major lineages of Sternorrhyncha (Aphidomorpha, Coccoidea, Psylloidea). Eleven available names remain unplaceable (incertae sedis nomina dubia) and to date do not appear in the various Sternorrhyncha catalogues. In order to clarify their status, we here present an annotated list of the 137 nominal species-group names originally described in combination with Chermes. We provide the original bibliographic citation and an assessment of the current status of each name. The genus name Chermes Linnaeus 1758 (rostrum on the breast), “Antennae thorace was suppressed under the Plenary Powers of longiores” (antennae longer than thorax), “Alae IV the International Commission on Zoological deflexae” (four deflexed wings), “Thorax gibbus” Nomenclature (Evans and China 1965) following (humped thorax), and “Pedes saltatorii” (jumping a petition by Victor Eastop (1963). Prior to that, legs).

Received: 10 August 2020; Accepted: 3 September 2020; Published: 9 September 2020 Abstract: The psyllids Cacopsylla melanoneura and Cacopsylla picta reproduce on apple (Malus domestica) × and transmit the bacterium ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’, the causative agent of apple proliferation. Adult psyllids were collected by the beating-tray method from lower and upper parts of the apple tree canopy in the morning and in the afternoon. There was a trend of catching more emigrant adults of C. melanoneura in the morning and in the lower part of the canopy. For C. melanoneura remigrants, no differences were observed. The findings regarding the distribution of adults were reflected by the number of nymphs collected by wash-down sampling. The density of C. picta was too low for a statistical analysis. The vector monitoring and how it is commonly performed, is suitable for estimating densities of C. melanoneura. Nevertheless, above a certain temperature threshold, prediction of C. melanoneura density might be skewed. No evidence was found that other relatively abundant psyllid species in the orchard, viz.
