  • A Review of Sampling and Monitoring Methods for Beneficial Arthropods
    insects Review A Review of Sampling and Monitoring Methods for Beneficial Arthropods in Agroecosystems Kenneth W. McCravy Department of Biological Sciences, Western Illinois University, 1 University Circle, Macomb, IL 61455, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-309-298-2160 Received: 12 September 2018; Accepted: 19 November 2018; Published: 23 November 2018 Abstract: Beneficial arthropods provide many important ecosystem services. In agroecosystems, pollination and control of crop pests provide benefits worth billions of dollars annually. Effective sampling and monitoring of these beneficial arthropods is essential for ensuring their short- and long-term viability and effectiveness. There are numerous methods available for sampling beneficial arthropods in a variety of habitats, and these methods can vary in efficiency and effectiveness. In this paper I review active and passive sampling methods for non-Apis bees and arthropod natural enemies of agricultural pests, including methods for sampling flying insects, arthropods on vegetation and in soil and litter environments, and estimation of predation and parasitism rates. Sample sizes, lethal sampling, and the potential usefulness of bycatch are also discussed. Keywords: sampling methodology; bee monitoring; beneficial arthropods; natural enemy monitoring; vane traps; Malaise traps; bowl traps; pitfall traps; insect netting; epigeic arthropod sampling 1. Introduction To sustainably use the Earth’s resources for our benefit, it is essential that we understand the ecology of human-altered systems and the organisms that inhabit them. Agroecosystems include agricultural activities plus living and nonliving components that interact with these activities in a variety of ways. Beneficial arthropods, such as pollinators of crops and natural enemies of arthropod pests and weeds, play important roles in the economic and ecological success of agroecosystems.

  • San Jose Scale and Its Natural Enemies: Investigating Natural Or Augmented Controls
    California Tree Fruit Agreement Research Report 2002 SAN JOSE SCALE AND ITS NATURAL ENEMIES: INVESTIGATING NATURAL OR AUGMENTED CONTROLS Project Leaders: Kent M. Daane Cooperators: Glenn Y. Yokota, Walter J. Bentley, Karen Sime, and Brian Hogg ABSTRACT San Jose scale (SJS) and its natural enemies were studied from 1999 through 2002. Natural populations were followed in stone fruit and almond blocks, with orchard management practices divided into “conventional” and “sustainable” practices, based on dormant and in-season insecticide use. Results generally show higher fruit damage at harvest-time in sustainably managed fields, although, these results are not consistent among orchards and exceptions to this pattern were found. In conventionally managed blocks, later harvest dates resulted in higher SJS fruit damage, although this did not hold true in sustainably managed orchards. Results from SJS pheromone-baited traps show a predominant seasonal pattern of SJS densities progressively increasing and parasitoid (Encarsia perniciosi) densities progressively decreasing. These data are discussed with respect to SJS fruit damage and parasitoid establishment and efficiency. SJS and parasitoid sampling methodology and distribution were investigated. Comparing SJS pheromone trap data to numbers of crawlers on double-sided sticky tape and SJS infested fruit at harvest show a significant correlation between pheromone trap counts of SJS males and numbers of SJS crawlers. Results suggest that there is a small window in the season (April-May) when sticky tape provides important information on crawler abundance and damage. Results show a negative correlation between the early season abundance of Encarsia (as measured by pheromone traps) and SJS damage at harvest. These results suggest that early-season ratios of parasitoid : SJS can not be used to predict fruit damage or biological control (these data require more analysis).

Received: 29 January 2012; in revised form: 17 February 2012 / Accepted: 21 February 2012 / Published: 29 February 2012 Abstract: Vertically acquired, endosymbiotic bacteria such as those belonging to the Rickettsiales and the Mollicutes are known to influence the biology of their arthropod hosts in order to favour their own transmission. In this study we investigate the influence of such reproductive parasites on the behavior of their insects and arachnid hosts. We find that changes in host behavior that are associated with endosymbiont infections are not restricted to characteristics that are directly associated with reproduction. Other behavioural traits, such as those involved in intraspecific competition or in dispersal may also be affected. Such behavioural shifts are expected to influence the level of intraspecific variation and the rate at which adaptation can occur through their effects on effective population size and gene flow amongst populations. Symbionts may thus influence both levels of polymorphism within species and the rate at which diversification can occur.

  • The Occurrence of Encarsia Perniciosi in Areas of Northern Greece As Assessed by Sex Pheromone Traps of Its Host Quadraspidiotus Perniciosus'
    ENTOMOLOGIA HELLENICA S (1987): 7-12 The Occurrence of Encarsia perniciosi in Areas of Northern Greece as Assessed by Sex Pheromone Traps of its Host Quadraspidiotus perniciosus' D.S. KYPARISSOUDAS Plant Protection Service of Thessaloniki, GR-54626 Thessaloniki, Greece ABSTRACT During the 1982-1985 period the aphelinid endoparasite Encarsia perniciosi Tower was cap­ tured on synthetic pheromone traps of the San Jose scale (SJS), Quadraspidiotus pernicio­ sus Comstock, in scale-infested insecticide treated and untreated orchards of Central and Western Macedonia (Northern Greece). It has expanded especially near the sites where it had been released, but also in areas 50-100 km from the point of release. The parasite in untreated orchards generally appeared from April to October, while in orchards treated with insecticides it was not caught after mid June. Spring flights of the parasite occurred on almost the same dates as the first captures of the male scale. Subsequent flights of E. perni­ ciosi were not always synchronized with those of the male scale, and after the beginning of June the parasite showed a general decline throughout the remainder of each season. The pheromone of the scale insect acts as a kairomone to the parasite and it can be used in trapping systems in scale-infested orchards for the confirmation of the presence and the dis­ tribution of E. perniciosi. Introduction riou 1985). In 1982, in a study on the flight of the SJS males by means of synthetic sex pheromone Encarsia perniciosiTower (Hymenoptera: Aphe- traps (Zoëcon's type «tent») we observed that be­ linidae) is a monophagus, solitary endoparasite of sides SJS males, its parasite E.
