An Integrated Ecological-Economic Model for Biological Pest Control

Introduction 8 9 1.1 The need for objective monetary valuation of biodiversity losses 10 11 Biodiversity plays a key role in ecological processes and the delivery of ecosystem services, and its 12 importance has been widely recognized (MA, 2005). In spite global actions, biodiversity is declining at 13 an alarming rate (Butchart et al., 2012). In many cases, policy measures to safeguard biodiversity and 14 resource developments are mutually exclusive and hence biodiversity conservation implies the 15 decision to bear opportunity costs (Bennett et al., 2003). Being confronted with budget constraints, 16 policy makers need to justify decision-making by supporting evidence of biodiversity benefits 17 outweighing the opportunity costs incurred. 18 19 In 2001, the EU adopted the Biodiversity Action Plan, which aims at integrating environmental 20 requirements into a market policy. In its mid-term assessment, the Commission confirmed the need for 21 major action to stop the loss of biodiversity and acknowledged the need to strengthen independent 22 scientific advice to global policy making (EC, 2008). But in spite the need for objectively comparable 23 monetary standards to include biodiversity arguments in policymaking, the empirical literature 24 investigating the relationship between species diversity and it’s valuation from a farmers perspective is 25 still scarce (Finger, 2015). -

Jber. naturwiss. Ver. Wuppertal 53 158- 205 Wuppertal, 15.12.2000 Das Käfervorkommen im Burgholz - Untersuchungsaspekte von 1952 bis 1996 Wolfgang Kolbe Mit 1 Tabelle Abstract Since the beginning of the second part of the 20'h century systematic collections ofbeetles were made to investigate the forest populations of the Burgholz State Forest in Wuppertal and Solingen (Northrhine Westphalia, Germany). H.-U. TRIELE was the first, who studied comparatively the composition of animal communities - among other arthropods also the beetles- of 9 testareas in the Burgholz State Forest (1952/53). A new phase in exploration of Coleoptera starts 1969. Over a period of 25 years investigations were made to explore the Coleoptera. One aspect was the influence of the red ants (Formica polyctena) as enemies of carabids.- Very important apparatures to study the structure and dynamic of several populations are pitfall traps, ground photoeclectors and arboreal photoeclectors. Within the catched beetle species above all Staphylinidae, Curculionidae, Scolytidae und Rhizophagidae are in the centre of interest. Important results yield also the investigation in different types offorests (exotic and indigenous wood land trees ), Anfang der zweiten Hälfte des vergangeneu Jahrhunderts begannen die gezielten Aufsammlungen von Käfern in den Wäldern des Staatsforstes Burgholz in Wupper tal und Solingen. Es war Hans-Ulrich TRIELE, der 1952 und 1953 die Aufnahme von Tierbeständen zur Erfassung der Tiergesellschaften in der Bodenstreu verschie dener Waldtypen des Niederbergischen Landes durchführte. Neun seiner insgesamt 27 Probeflächen befanden sich im Burgholz; dabei handelte es sich um Buchen Traubeneichen-Wälder, Fichten- und Lärchenaufforstungen. Hier ein Zitat aus sei ner einschlägigen Publikation: "Von allen in dieser Arbeit behandelten Tiergruppen stellen die Käfer die artenreichste dar. -
Wild Species 2010 the GENERAL STATUS of SPECIES in CANADA
Wild Species 2010 THE GENERAL STATUS OF SPECIES IN CANADA Canadian Endangered Species Conservation Council National General Status Working Group This report is a product from the collaboration of all provincial and territorial governments in Canada, and of the federal government. Canadian Endangered Species Conservation Council (CESCC). 2011. Wild Species 2010: The General Status of Species in Canada. National General Status Working Group: 302 pp. Available in French under title: Espèces sauvages 2010: La situation générale des espèces au Canada. ii Abstract Wild Species 2010 is the third report of the series after 2000 and 2005. The aim of the Wild Species series is to provide an overview on which species occur in Canada, in which provinces, territories or ocean regions they occur, and what is their status. Each species assessed in this report received a rank among the following categories: Extinct (0.2), Extirpated (0.1), At Risk (1), May Be At Risk (2), Sensitive (3), Secure (4), Undetermined (5), Not Assessed (6), Exotic (7) or Accidental (8). In the 2010 report, 11 950 species were assessed. Many taxonomic groups that were first assessed in the previous Wild Species reports were reassessed, such as vascular plants, freshwater mussels, odonates, butterflies, crayfishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. Other taxonomic groups are assessed for the first time in the Wild Species 2010 report, namely lichens, mosses, spiders, predaceous diving beetles, ground beetles (including the reassessment of tiger beetles), lady beetles, bumblebees, black flies, horse flies, mosquitoes, and some selected macromoths. The overall results of this report show that the majority of Canada’s wild species are ranked Secure. -

Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity, Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 Abstract A list of 1531 species ofLepidoptera is presented, collected over 15 years (1988 to 2002), in eleven southern West Virginia counties. A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains, -

HADULLA WAGNER 2016 Hundsbachtal
Mitt. Arb.gem. Rhein. Koleopterologen (Bonn) 26 , 2016, 11–25 Zur Käferfauna (Coleoptera) der Blockhalden im Hundsbachtal bei Gerolstein Ergebnisse der Gemeinschaftsexkursionen der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Rheinischer Koleopterologen im April 2013 KARL HADULLA & THOMAS WAGNER Kurzfassung: Im Naturschutzgebiet Hundsbachtal südwestlich von Gerolstein in der Eifel befindet sich in einer Blockschutthalde am Rande eines Basaltschlacken- vulkans ein bekannter Standort für Glazialrelikte der Tierwelt. Am 13. April 2013 fand eine Exkursion statt, während der auch Bodenfallen tief in den Blockschutt ausgebracht und zwei Wochen später eingeholt wurden. Es konnten insgesamt 210 Käferarten nachgewiesen werden, 24 in Bodenfallen und davon acht ausschließlich mit dieser Methode. Darunter waren eine Anzahl cavernicoler Arten, dabei auch Choleva lederiana als Erstfund für das Rheinland, sowie der blockhaldenspezifische Kurzflügler Leptusa simonii . Ein Wiederfund nach 50 Jahren für die Rheinprovinz ist Orthocerus clavicornis . Auf die taxonomisch-nomenklatorischen Änderungen von Choleva lederiana , deren Berücksichtigung in der Bestimmungsliteratur und ihre aktuelle mitteleuropäische Verbreitung, wird im Besonderen eingegangen. Abstract: The Nature Reserve „Hundsbachtal“ southwest of Gerolstein, Eifel moun- tains in Western Germany, has a large scree slope along an pleistocaene volcano and is a well known area for glacial relict species. During an excursion on 13th of April 2013 pitfall traps have been set most deeply in rubble that were collected two weeks later. Altogether 210 beetle species could be found, 24 in the pitfall traps, and eight of them exclusively with this method. Beyond the numerous cavernicolous beetles, many Choleva lederiana could be found for the first time in the Rhineland, further- more the scree slope typic staphylinid Leptusa simonii . As a recapture after fifty years in the Rhineland, Orthocerus clavicornis was found on gravel ground covered with lichens close to the mouth of the Hundsbach creek. -

The Genus Bruchus Was Restricted by Schilsky (6
THE HAIRY-VETCH BRUCHID, BRUCHUS BRACHIALIS FAHRAEUS, IN THE UNITED STATES ' By J. C. BRIDWELL, formerly Specialist in Bruchidae and Their Parasites, Division of Stored Product Insects^ Bureau of Entomology, and L. J. BOTTIMER, Assistant Entomologist^ Food and Drug Administration, United States Department of Agriculture INTRODUCTION The genus Bruchus was restricted by Schilsky (6) ^ to include only the immediate allies of Bruchus pisorum (L.), the pea weevil, of which he tabulated 24 species knowQ to him. To these may be added others doubtfully distinct, imperfectly known, or more recently described, which increase the nominal species of the genus to a total of about 46. All these species are native to the Palearctic region. Two of them are already well known in the United States as major pests of the plants affected. B. pisorum was the first of the genus and one of the first species of the family to be recognized. It was described in 1752, and was recorded as having destroyed in the 1740's the flourishing colonial American industry of producing dry peas for ships' stores. B. ruß- manus Boheman, the broadbean weevil, has now practically destroyed the broadbean industry of Caüfornia. A third species, B, hrachialis Fahraeus, has in recent years gained a foothold in this country, for in 1931 the junior author found it heavily infesting the seeds of vetches growing in New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and North Carolina, and in 1932 it was found in Virginia. In view of these facts it seems wise to present a brief summary of the knowledge at present available of the habits of the members of this genus and to point out the increased danger of their estabhshment in the United States as a result of changed commercial conditions.
