ZooKeys 417: 103–132. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.417.7551 Abstract The Chrysomelidae (Coleoptera) is a highly speciose family that has been poorly studied at the region- al level in Mexico. In the present study, we estimated species richness and diversity in oak-pine forest, Tamaulipan thorny scrub and in tropical deciduous forests in Peregrina Canyon within the Altas Cumbres Protected Area of the northeastern state of Tamaulipas, Mexico. Sampling of Chrysomelidae consisted of five sweep net samples (200 net sweeps) within each of three sites during four sample periods: early dry season, late dry season, early wet season, and late wet season. -

Autor de correspondencia: [email protected] RESUMEN. El objetivo de este trabajo fue realizar un inventario faunístico actualizado de Galerucinae, en fragmentos de Bosque Tropical Subcaducifolio (BTS) pertenecientes a cuatro localidades del estado de Tamaulipas, así como determinar su similitud faunística. Se enlistaron un total de 53 especies en 31 géneros, lo cual representa el 22 % de los géneros y el 6 % de las especies en relación con lo registrado para México, así como un 55 % y 65 %, respectivamente, de lo reportado a nivel estatal. Los géneros con mayor número de especies fueron Diabrotica (7), Acalymma (5), Disonycha (4), Alagoasa y Asphaera (3). Además, se enlistan especies no registradas para el estado de Tamaulipas de acuerdo con la revisión taxonómica del grupo. El análisis de Sörensen indicó un 35.1 % de similitud faunística entre la Reserva de la Biosfera el Cielo y el Cañón de la Peregrina, con nueve especies comunes, mientras que el resto de las comparaciones mostró valores inferiores. -

Ballhorn*¤a, Stefanie Kautz¤b, Martin Heil¤c Department of Botany/Plant Ecology, University of Duisburg-Essen, Essen, Germany Abstract Background: Plants respond to herbivore damage with the release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This indirect defense can cause ecological costs when herbivores themselves use VOCs as cues to localize suitable host plants. Can VOCs reliably indicate food plant quality to herbivores? Methodology: We determined the choice behavior of herbivorous beetles (Chrysomelidae: Gynandrobrotica guerreroensis and Cerotoma ruficornis) when facing lima bean plants (Fabaceae: Phaseolus lunatus) with different cyanogenic potential, which is an important constitutive direct defense. Expression of inducible indirect defenses was experimentally manipulated by jasmonic acid treatment at different concentrations. -

Pest and Beneficial Populations and Returns from Alternative Small-Scale Corn and Bean Cropping Systems in the Guatemalan Highlands
PEST AND BENEFICIAL POPULATIONS AND RETURNS FROM ALTERNATIVE SMALL-SCALE CORN AND BEAN CROPPING SYSTEMS IN THE GUATEMALAN HIGHLANDS By BARBRA C. LARSON VASQUEZ A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1998 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisor and committee chair, Dr. Jerry L. Stimac, without whose unyielding support this project would not have been possible. The academic excellence he demonstrated and imparted was a valuable part of my learning experience at the University of Florida. I also acknowledge additional financial support from the Department of Entomology and Nematology, the Tinker Foundation (through the Center for Latin American Studies), and the Dickinson Award in Tropical Agriculture (through IFAS). The guidance and suggestions of my other committee members, Dr. Charles MacVean, Dr. Marilyn Swisher, Dr. Freddie Johnson and Dr. Carl Barfield are greatly appreciated. I especially thank Dr. C. MacVean for providing substantial assistance during the fieldwork, and Dr. Robert McSorley for advice and assistance with the nematode component. I am immensely grateful to the director and staff of the Escuela de Formacion Agricola (EFA) in Solola, for the use of field faciliites and living space and for assistance and support of the project. Much helpful advice was received at the Universidad del Valle de Guatemala, including the valuable recommendations of Dr. Robert Klein and the assistance in plant and nematode identifications by Dr. Ricardo Arjona and Dr. Marco Arevalo, respectively. Dr. Mike Wade provided advice on the fertilization plans.
