1 Biological Control of Wireworm (Agriotes Lineatus) Damage To
1 Biological Control of Wireworm (Agriotes lineatus) damage to potato with Metarhizium brunneum Isabel Aida Stewart [email protected] Kwantlen Polytechnic University 100298609, AGRI 4299, Mike Bomford, 12/11/2017 2 Abstract The larval stage of Agriotes lineatus, wireworm, is a challenging agricultural pest with a broad host range. It is a soil-dwelling arthropod that may live up to 5 years before pupating. Wireworms negatively affect crop yields and render produce un-saleable. Organic production systems have few means of managing this pest and this study explores the use of an entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium brunneum, as a bio-control. Three treatments - M. brunneum, M. brunneum with oats, and a non-treated control - were applied beneath seed potatoes. Damage to the tubers was classified by counting tuber hole abundance (Brandl et al., 2017). No statistically significant treatment effects were observed, but the proportion of potatoes that suffered wireworm damage was 33% lower in the M. brunneum and oat treatment than the control treatment and was numerically trending towards significance. Key words: Metarhizium, biocontrol, potato, wireworm, Agriotes lineatus, entomopathogenic fungi 3 Introduction Pest development of resistance to chemical insecticides is currently a pervasive issue in agriculture and it is paramount to advance alternatives that do not threaten the environment or our future capacity for agriculture. One solution to this issue that will be explored through this study is the use of non-persistent, non-toxic biological controls, often in the form of bacterial, fungal or nematode microbial agents. The pest that our research targets is the wireworm (Agriotes lineatus), the larval stage of the click beetle, which has a broad host range including carrots, cucurbits, rutabagas, onions, sweet corn, potatoes, sugar-beets, beans and peas (Chaput, 2000). -

A lectotype is designated for the taxon. An examination of the lectotype has shown that the current interpretation of the taxon is correct.

Lepidoptera Sphingidae:) of the Caatinga of Northeast Brazil: a Case Study in the State of Rio Grande Do Norte

E-mail: [email protected] AND CLEMENS SCHLINDWEIN Departamento de Botânica, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, Av. Prof. Moraes Rego, s/n, Cidade Universitária, 50670-901, Recife, Pernambuco, Brasil. E-mail:[email protected] ABSTRACT: The caatinga, a thorn-shrub succulent savannah, is located in Northeastern Brazil and characterized by a short and irregular rainy season and a severe dry season. Insects are only abundant during the rainy months, displaying a strong seasonal pat- tern. Here we present data from a yearlong Sphingidae survey undertaken in the reserve Estação Ecológica do Seridó, located in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Hawkmoths were collected once a month during two subsequent new moon nights, between 18.00h and 05.00h, attracted with a 160-watt mercury vapor light. A total of 593 specimens belonging to 20 species and 14 genera were col- lected. Neogene dynaeus, Callionima grisescens, and Hyles euphorbiarum were the most abundant species, together comprising up to 82.2% of the total number of specimens collected. These frequent species are residents of the caatinga of Rio Grande do Norte. The rare Sphingidae in this study, Pseudosphinx tetrio, Isognathus australis, and Cocytius antaeus, are migratory species for the caatinga. -
Pest Status of Olive Leaf Gall Midge Dasineura Oleae (Angelini, 1831), Description of Lasioptera Oleicola Skuhravá Sp
Türk. entomol. derg., 2011, 35 (2): 265-284 ISSN 1010-6960 Orijinal araştırma (Original article) Pest status of olive leaf gall midge Dasineura oleae (Angelini, 1831), description of Lasioptera oleicola Skuhravá sp. new (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) and effectiveness of parasitoids on their populations in Hatay Turkey Mikdat DOĞANLAR1* Erdal SERTKAYA1 Marcela SKUHRAVÁ2 Summary During investigations conducted in 2007-2010 in Hatay Province, Turkey, two species of gall midges, Dasineura oleae (Angelini, 1831) and Lasioptera oleicola Skuhravá sp. new were reared from galls on leaves and shoots of Olea europaea L. Average level of infestation on olive leaves and shoots by gall midges was 15.2 % and the highest level 78.2 %. Olive leaves, normally evergreen and outlasting on branches for several years, seriously injured by gall midges fell off and defoliage resulted in loss of ability to product flower buds and fruits in the following year. Dasineura oleae causing significant reduction or loss of yield of olive fruits is a serious pest of olive tree and we declare here its pest status. Population levels of gall midges on olive leaves were significantly reduced by 12 species of parasitic Hymenoptera belonging to five families, viz. Platygaster oleae Szelenyi, 1940 (Platygastridae); Eupelmus urozonus Dalman 1820 (Eupelmidae); Torymus phillyreae Ruschka, 1921 (Torymidae); Mesopolobus mediterraneus (Mayr, 1903), Mesopolobus diffinis (Walker, 1834) and Mesopolobus aspilus (Walker, 1835) (Pteromalidae); Quadrastichus dasineurae Doganlar, LaSalle, Sertkaya & Doganlar, 2009, Aprostocetus samandagus Doğanlar 2011, Aprostocetus lasiopterus Doğanlar 2011, Zeytinus hatayensis Doğanlar 2011 and additional 2 undescribed species of the genus Aprostocetus (Eulophidae). Larvae of these parasitoids kill larvae and pupae of gall midges inside galls. -

Proceedings of the United States National Museum SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION • WASHINGTON, D.C. Volume 112 I960 Number 3431 LACE-BUG GENERA OF THE WORLD (HEMIPTERA: TINGIDAE) « By Carl J. Drake and Florence A. Ruhoff Introduction A treatise of the generic names of the family Tingidae from a global standpoint embodies problems similar to those frequently encountered in corresponding studies in other animal groups. The more im- portant criteria, including such basic desiderata as fixation of type species, synonyms, priority, and dates of technical publications implicate questions concomitant with recent trends toward the clarification and stabilization of zoological nomenclature. Zoogeography, predicated and authenticated on the generic level by the distribution of genera and species, is portrayed here by means of tables, charts, and maps of the tingifauna of the world. This visual pattern of distribution helps one to form a more vivid concept of the family and its hierarchic levels of subfamilies and genera. To a limited extent the data indicate distributional concentrations and probable centers of evolution and dispersal paths of genera. The phylogenetic relationship of genera is not discussed. The present treatise recognizes 216 genera (plus 79 synonyms, homonyms, and emendations) of the Tingidae of the world and gives 1 Research for this paper was supported In part by the National Science Foundation, grant No. 4095. 2 PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM vol. 112 the figure of 1,767 as the approximate number of species now recog- nized. These figures, collated with similar categories in Lethierry and Severin (1896), show that there has been an increase of many genera and hundreds of species of Tingidae during the past three- quarters of a century. -
