Eradication of Medfly from Chile and Joint Programme in Southern Peru C

XA9951568 FAO/IAEA Int. Conf. on Area-Wide Fifth International Symposium on Fruit Flies I-I Control of Insect Pests, of Economic Importance Penang, May 28 to June 2, 1998 I - 5 June, 1998. Penang, Malaysia. ERADICATION OF MEDFLY FROM CHILE AND JOINT PROGRAMME IN SOUTHERN PERU C. Lobos & J. Machuca Servicio Agricolay Ganadero, Av Bulnes 140, Santiago, Chile The Mediterranean Fruit fly was found in Chile for first time in 1963 in Arica and Iquique provinces. Subsequently it was detected in different localities between the First Region and the Metropolitan Region. The eradication of all of these cases was achieved with the use of insecticides except some areas in the First Region because of the proximity with infested areas of the southern Peru. In 1980 the Agriculture and Livestock Service of Chile (SAG) established and initiated a SAG project called "Fruit Flies in Chile" to take actions wherever the occurrence of the insect was detected. In 1987 the SIT was evaluated as an instrument for the suppression and eradication of the pest in Arica province. From 1988, in a first phase, the sterile medfiies were imported. A second phase was initiated in 1993 when, with International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) support, the Center for the Production of Sterile Insects was inaugurated in the Lluta Valley of the I Region. Also an important agreement for medfly eradication in the Northern part of Chile was signed with Peru in 1990, with the participation of the Interamerican Institute for Cooperation in Agriculture. The agreement is financed by the Government of Chile through an annual contribution of c.a. US$ 500,000 plus the necessary sterile flies (20 millions/week) produced in the Chilean plant and released in Southern of Peru. In May of 1995 the last wild fly was detected in Arica. Then; after the estimated time of three medfly life cycles without new captures, in November of 1995 all Chile was declared a Medfly Free Country. Presently the Chile-Peru agreement continues with the participation of both IICA and IAEA. Result in the Tacna valley (Southern of Peru) are promising to obtain eradication in that zone in the near future. -54-.

Scorpiones: Bothriuridae) in Chile, with Descriptions of Two New Species
PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CENTRAL PARK WEST AT 79TH STREET, NEW YORK, NY 10024 Number 3564, 44 pp., 77 figures, 2 tables May 16, 2007 The genus Brachistosternus (Scorpiones: Bothriuridae) in Chile, with Descriptions of Two New Species ANDRE´ S A. OJANGUREN AFFILASTRO,1 CAMILO I. MATTONI,2 AND LORENZO PRENDINI3 ABSTRACT We review the taxonomy of the Brachistosternus Pocock, 1893 scorpions of Chile, providing revised diagnoses, comprehensive distribution maps (based on all known locality records), and an illustrated key to all Chilean species of the genus. Two new species, Brachistosternus (Leptosternus) chango, n.sp., and Brachistosternus (Leptosternus) kamanchaca, n.sp., are described from northern Chile. The phylogenetic affinities of B. chango are unclear. Some characters suggest that this species may be related to Brachistosternus (L.) artigasi Cekalovic, 1974 but others suggest that it may be related to Brachistosternus (L.) roigalsinai Ojanguren Affilastro, 2002. Brachistosternus kamanchaca, in contrast, appears to be closely related to Brachistosternus (L.) donosoi Cekalovic, 1974 and other species from the plains of northern Chile and southern Peru´. RESUMEN Se revisa la taxonomıá de los escorpiones del geńero Brachistosternus Pocock, 1893 de Chile, se brindan diagnosis revisadas, mapas de distribucioń completos (basados en todos los registros conocidos) y una clave ilustrada de todas las especies. Se describe a Brachistosternus (Leptosternus) chango, n.sp., y a Brachistosternus (Leptosternus) kamanchaca, n.sp., del norte de Chile. Las relaciones filogene´ticas de B. chango son poco claras. Algunos caracteres de esta especie sugieren que puede estar relacionada con Brachistosternus (L.) artigasi Cekalovic, 1974, aunque otros parecerıán relacionarla con Brachistosternus (L.) roigalsinai Ojanguren Affilastro, 2002.

Geographical Distribution of Tillandsia Lomas in the Atacama Desert, Northern Chile
ARTICLE IN PRESS Geographical distribution of Tillandsia lomas in the Atacama Desert, northern Chile R. Pintoa, I. Barrıáb, P.A. Marquetb,Ã aDalmacia 3251, Iquique, Chile bCenter for Advanced Studies in Ecology and Biodiversity (CASEB) and Departamento de Ecologıá, Pontificia Universidad Cato´lica de Chile, Casilla 114-D, Santiago, Chile Abstract We assessed the geographic distribution of Tillandsia lomas in northern Chile, from Arica (181200S) to the Loa river (211250S) and discussed the factors that might potentially underlie the observed patterns. We carried out extensive field survey complemented with aerial surveys and analysis of specimens deposited in herbaria. We detected over 30 Tillandsia stands most of which corresponded to the species Tillandsia landbeckii and can be grouped in 10 large systems. Other two species were also detected Tillandsia marconae and Tillandsia virescens, both of which show a restricted distribution in the area. Our results provide evidence on the wide distribution of Tillandsia lomas in northern Chile and its association with fog corridors. Keywords: Atacama Desert; Cordillera de la Costa; Tillandsia lomas 1. Introduction The Atacama/Peruvian Coastal Desert, extends for more than 3000 km along a narrow coastal strip from northern Peru (Lat. 51S) to northern Chile (Lat. 271S) on the west coast of South America. This desert owes its existence to the combined effect of a stable high- pressure system located in the western Pacific Ocean, the drying effect of the cold northward flowing Humboldt current, and to the rain shadow effect of the Andes, which hold back the penetration of moisture brought by the eastern trade winds.

The land that was involved in the dispute ws considered so worthless that no definite boundaries had been established after almost three hundred years of the white manVs governmental control., The writerns interest in this subject was stimulated by many references to the region with no supporting facts. This study endeavors to correlate the geographical, political, and economi© factors before, during, and after the War of the Pacific which was not definitely settled until the border dispute was peacefully ter.mi natedo The political and economic benefits to Chile constitute the major portion of the material bare presented, along with the geographical factors involved in the territory acquired from Bolivia and Peru by the aggressiveness of Chile~ Source materials included official doouments of the United States Department of State and the British Foreign Office as well as other governmental publications.
