Don died at the Alta Bates Medical Center in Berkeley after a two-year battle with a rare form of skin cancer. Over the course of a 40-year career, Don developed a worldwide reputation as a respected leader in forest entomology and related fields. His research focused on the development of ecologically sensitive methods of managing insects that feed on trees in forest and urban environments. We are all aware of his pioneering work regarding the biological control of eucalyptus psyllids, but Don distinguished himself with research on the population dynamics of bark beetles and the factors that attract their natural enemies. His other projects included research on how the methods developed to control Pierce’s disease-impacted riparian habitats, description of the life history and development of control strategies of elm leaf beetles, and the ecological impact of the sudden oak death pathogen, a fungus-like alga that has killed tens of thousands of oak trees throughout California. Don was a true naturalist and had a deep interest in a wide range of organisms. He maintained one of the largest long-term databases of insectivorous birds in California’s forest and riparian areas, and recently contributed a 20-page chapter on the biology of the chestnut-backed chickadee for the encyclopedia “Birds of North America.” Don was known, respected and loved by colleagues around the world. He worked and traveled extensively in France, Romania, Australia, Chile, and Brazil; and was one of the first biologists to work in China following its opening. Most recently, Don was in Mexico assisting in the establishment of an insectary developed to produce parasites of the eucalyptus psyllid. Don was noted as a dedicated educator and was appointed as Associate Dean for Instruction and Student Affairs at U.C. Berkeley’s College of Natural Resources in 1996. He advised 39 graduate students during his tenure, but he also taught literally thousands of natural resource, entomology and forestry students in his popular undergraduate courses. His influence extended far beyond the campus as he often addressed professional and civic groups, and he developed outreach programs through the College as well as through the University of California’s interactive University Project. Don received numerous honors throughout his distinguished career, including the UC Berkeley College of Natural Resources Outstanding Teaching Award in 1995, the UC Berkeley Distinguished Service Award and the College of Natural Resources Citation in 2003. He was perhaps most proud of being named the 2003 recipient of the Western Forest Insect Work Conference Founder’s Award for Contributions to Forest Entomology. Don was an ardent participant in both the Western Forest Insect Work Conference and the California Forest Pest Council. He greatly enjoyed these gatherings and served in virtually every capacity in both organizations including Chair, Secretary, and Councilor in addition to his contributions on Special Committees, and as Local Arrangements and Program Chair. Also, let it be not forgotten that he was a multiple recipient of the “Ethical Practices” award given in past times by the Western Forest Insect Work Conference. To many members of the Western Forest Insect and Western International Forest Disease Work Conferences, Donald Lee Dahlsten was not only a teacher, mentor and colleague but also a dear and special friend. He will be sorely missed. Tribute Prepared by Patrick J.

  • Detection and Quantification of Leptographium Wageneri, The
    1798 Detection and quantification of Leptographium wageneri, the cause of black-stain root disease, from bark beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) in Northern California using regular and real-time PCR Wolfgang Schweigkofler, William J. Otrosina, Sheri L. Smith, Daniel R. Cluck, Kevin Maeda, Kabir G. Peay, and Matteo Garbelotto Abstract: Black-stain root disease is a threat to conifer forests in western North America. The disease is caused by the ophiostomatoid fungus Leptographium wageneri (W.B. Kendr.) M.J. Wingf., which is associated with a number of bark beetle (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) and weevil species (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). We developed a polymerase chain reac- tion test to identify and quantify fungal DNA directly from insects. Leptographium wageneri DNA was detected on 142 of 384 bark beetle samples (37%) collected in Lassen National Forest, in northeastern California, during the years 2001 and 2002. Hylastes macer (LeConte) was the bark beetle species from which Leptographium DNA was amplified most regularly (2001: 63.4%, 2002: 75.0% of samples). Lower insect–fungus association rates were found for Hylurgops porosus (LeConte), Hylurgops subcostulatus (Mannerheim), Hylastes gracilis (LeConte), Hylastes longicollis (Swaine), Dendroctonus valens (LeConte), and Ips pini (Say). The spore load per beetle ranged from 0 to over1×105 spores, with only a few beetles carrying more than1×103 spores. The technique permits the processing of a large number of samples synchronously, as required for epidemiological studies, to study infection rates in bark beetle populations and to identify potential insect vectors. Résumé : Le noircissement des racines est une maladie qui menace les forêts de l’ouest de l’Amérique du Nord.

MAPPING THE VARIATION IN SPIDER BODY COLOURATION FROM AN INSECT PERSPECTIVE Ajuria-Ibarra, H. 1 Tapia-McClung, H. 2 & D. Rao 1 1. INBIOTECA, Universidad Veracruzana, Xalapa, Veracruz, México. 2. Laboratorio Nacional de Informática Avanzada, A.C., Xalapa, Veracruz, México. Colour variation is frequently observed in orb web spiders. Such variation can impact fitness by affecting the way spiders are perceived by relevant observers such as prey (i.e. by resembling flower signals as visual lures) and predators (i.e. by disrupting search image formation). Verrucosa arenata is an orb-weaving spider that presents colour variation in a conspicuous triangular pattern on the dorsal part of the abdomen. This pattern has predominantly white or yellow colouration, but also reflects light in the UV part of the spectrum. We quantified colour variation in V. arenata from images obtained using a full spectrum digital camera. We obtained cone catch quanta and calculated chromatic and achromatic contrasts for the visual systems of Drosophila melanogaster and Apis mellifera. Cluster analyses of the colours of the triangular patch resulted in the formation of six and three statistically different groups in the colour space of D. melanogaster and A. mellifera, respectively. Thus, no continuous colour variation was found.

    Journal of Insect Science | www.insectscience.org ISSN: 1536-2442 Characterization of microsatellite loci in the western subterranean termite, Reticulitermes hesperus, and cross-amplification in closely related cryptic species Kirsten A. Copren Center for Population Biology, Department of Entomology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616 Current address: Genome Analysis Core, Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of California, 2340 Sutter Street, San Francisco, CA 94115 Abstract New, and previously reported microsatellites, were characterized for a group of four cryptic sibling species in California (USA) in the subterranean termite genus Reticulitermes with the goal of finding loci appropriate for population and species level studies. Three new microsatellites were identified originating from R. hesperus, and 19 loci previously characterized in R. flavipes and R. santonensis were examined. Of the three loci specifically developed for R. hesperus, none amplify with the other species. Variation appropriate for population level studies was found in 4–13 loci depending on the species. Fifteen loci appeared to be appropriate for use at the species level. Unique or monomorphic alleles are found among the four species, indicating these loci will be taxonomically informative for this group.
