  • AN ABSTRACT of the THESIS of Robert Frank Koontz for the Ph
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Robert Frank Koontz for the Ph. D. (Name of student) (Degree) in Entomology presented onFebruary 14, 1968 (Major) (Date) Title: BIOLOGICAL AND ECOLOGICAL RELATIONSHIPS OF THE FUNGUS, ENTOMOPHTHORA CORONATA (COSTANTIN) KEVORKIAN, AND THE GARDEN SYMPHYLAN, SCUTIGERELLA IMMACULATA (NEWPORT) Signature redacted for privacy. Abstract approved: Clarence G. Thoripson I A study was made to determine biological relationships between the garden symphylan, Scutigerella immaculata (Newport), and an entomogenous fungus, Entomophthora coronata (Costantin), which attacks it under certain conditions.Until this fungus was found to infect this pest, no organism which seemed to offer prom- ise of control had been discovered. Symphylan populations were exposed to coronata and the pathology followed.When i ew syrnphylans were added to an in- fected culture as the diseased individuals died, an epizootic condition developed to apoint at which symphylans were infected and killed in less than two days. E. coronata survived in contaminated containers for as much as five months without susceptible hosts asevidenced by infection of reintroduced symphylans. Wax moth larvae, Galleria, and European house crickets showed high mortality when injected with spores suspended in physiological saline solution.Wax moth larvae and mealworms, Tenebrio, were infected when they were dusted with spores and incubated at 15°C temperature in high humidity. Penetration of the cuticle by germ tubes from attached spores is the usual pathway of infection. Temperature ranges for both organisms correspond closely. Both become active a few degrees above freezing and reach an optimum between 20° and 300G.Lethal temperature for both is somewhat below 37° C.

  • ÖDÖN TÖMÖSVÁRY (1852-1884), PIONEER of HUNGARIAN MYRIAPODOLOGY Zoltán Korsós Department of Zoology, Hungarian Natural
    miriapod report 20/1/04 10:04 am Page 78 BULLETIN OF THE BRITISH MYRIAPOD AND ISOPOD GROUP Volume 19 2003 ÖDÖN TÖMÖSVÁRY (1852-1884), PIONEER OF HUNGARIAN MYRIAPODOLOGY Zoltán Korsós Department of Zoology, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Baross u. 13, H-1088 Budapest, Hungary E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Ödön (=Edmund) Tömösváry (1852-1884) immortalised his name in the science of myriapodology by discovering the peculiar sensory organs of the myriapods. He first described these organs in 1883 on selected species of Chilopoda, Diplopoda and Pauropoda. On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of Tömösváry’s birth, his unfortunately short though productive scientific career is overviewed, in this paper only from the myriapodological point of view. A list of the 32 new species and two new genera described by him are given and commented, together with a detailed bibliography of Tömösváry’s 24 myriapodological works and subsequent papers dealing with his taxa. INTRODUCTION Ödön Tömösváry is certainly one of the Hungarian zoologists (if not the only one) whose name is well- known worldwide. This is due to the discovery of a peculiar sensory organ which was later named after him, and it is called Tömösváry’s organ uniformly in almost all languages (French: organ de Tömösváry, German: Tömösvárysche Organ, Danish: Tömösvarys organ, Italian: organo di Tömösváry, Czech: Tömösváryho organ and Hungarian: Tömösváry-féle szerv). The organ itself is believed to be a sensory organ with some kind of chemical or olfactory function (Hopkin & Read 1992). However, although its structure was studied in many respects (Bedini & Mirolli 1967, Haupt 1971, 1973, 1979, Hennings 1904, 1906, Tichy 1972, 1973, Figures 4-6), the physiological background is still not clear today.

Journal of Hymenoptera Research 81: 143–164. https://doi. org/10.3897/jhr.81.61067 Abstract Disturbance sounds to deter antagonists are widespread among insects but have never been recorded for the larvae of bees. Here, we report on the production of disturbance sounds by the postdefecating larva (“prepupa”) of the Palaearctic osmiine bee Hoplitis (Alcidamea) tridentata, which constructs linear series of brood cells in excavated burrows in pithy plant stems. Upon disturbance, the prepupa produces two types of sounds, one of which can be heard up to a distance of 2–3 m (“stroking sounds”), whereas the other is scarcely audible by bare ear (“tapping sounds”). To produce the stroking sounds, the prepupa rapidly pulls a horseshoe-shaped callosity around the anus one to five times in quick succession over the cocoon wall before it starts to produce tapping sounds by knocking a triangularly shaped callosity on the clypeus against the cocoon wall in long uninterrupted series of one to four knocks per second.

Breve definición del grupo y principales caracteres diagnósticos Los sínfilos – o sinfilos; clase Symphyla – son un grupo monofilético con bastante homogeneidad morfoló- gica. Representan el subgrupo más pequeño de los cuatro que forman Myriapoda y se sabe muy poco sobre su biología. Son animales edáficos muy pequeños – miden 1-8 mm de largo –, similares a los ciem- piés. Se caracterizan por su cuerpo alargado, muy flexible y completamente blanco, la ausencia de ojos y la presencia de un par de antenas largas y monoliformes, todas características típicas de un tipo de vida edáfica. Siempre han sido considerados un grupo muy antiguo y primitivo. Su edad mínima ha sido estimada en el Silúrico medio, hace 430 millones de años (Edgecombe, 2004). Su nombre significa “unidor de filos” porque históricamente han sido propuestos como el “eslabón perdido” entre los miriápodos y los insectos (por ejemplo, Ryder 1880), teoría abandonada en la actualidad. 1.1. Morfología (los términos en negrita se representan en la figura adjunta) La cabeza es cordiforme con un surco central en la parte dorsal siempre presente total o parcialmente en todas las especies. Este surco puede presentar ramas posteriores, anteriores o laterales, dependiendo de las especies. Las antenas son monoliformes, largas, con un número elevado de artejos – de 12 a más de 50. Próximos a la base de las antenas se encuentran los órganos de Tömösváry – u órganos post- antenales –, que son quimiorreceptores con forma globosa, que por su forma y posición recuerdan a ojos.

Locality and habitat records are given for 294 specimens of 15 different species, mainly from the two first mentioned countries. Five species are reported from Austria for the first time, four from Italy, one from France and one from Yugoslavia. The distribution of the species are discussed. Taxonomic remarks are given in several cases, especially for the »SctttijereKa-respresentatives. Scutigerella eehinostylus n. sp. is described and its taxonomic status dis- cussed. For a very long time the distributional patterns of the Symphyla have been over- looked in nearly all countries. This is peculiar since every zoologist studying humid, subhumid or semiarid soils by invertebrate sampling methods must meet them both in tropical and in temperate regions. In this situation I am in the belief that the follow- ing list of localities and the summarized distribution records of the species involved should be of interest in filling an actual deficiency in the European faunistic literature.
