The other specimens and records were obtained from the Canadian National Collection of Insects, and from the Agriculture Cana- da's Research Stations at Lethbridge, A1ta. and Winnipeg, Man. I am grateful to the following people and their institutions for making available the collections in their care: Dr. R. C. Froeschner, U'S. National Museum, Washington, D.C.; Dr. J. L. Herring, SEL, USDA, U.S. National Museum, Washington, D.C.; and Dr. P. H. Arnaud, Jr', California Acade- my of Sciences, San Francisco, Calif. I gratefully acknowledge the cooperation of the superintendents and wardens of Waterton, Banff, Jasper, and Riding Mountain national parks while I was working in the parks in 1970 and 7912, and of D. Allen, Director, and G. Schumann, technical supervisor, Whiteshell Provincial Park, Falcon Beach, Man. while I was working there in 19'14, 191 5, and I 978. Special thanks are due to D. Brown, my technician, for preparing the distribution maps, and to S. Rigby of this Institute, for preparing several illustrations of adult Miridae. lntroduction The Miridae, or plant bugs, are of great economic importance to man because they feed on plants, or prey on other arthropods. The bugs may also act as vectors of plant virus diseases. Damage to crops by these bugs has often resulted in losses of millions of dollars. This group of bugs is not well known in Canada, particularly in the northern areas of the Prairie Provinces, the Yukon, and the Northwest Territories. Despite their large numbers, the plant bugs are poorly represent- ed in collections, and confusion exists in naming them. In recent years special efforts have been made to collect the Miridae from coast to coast in Canada, and especially in the farming and ranching areas of the Prairie Provinces. As a result, knowledge of the range and distribution of the species has been expanded and new information on their habits and ecology has been obtained. The aim of this report is to help the economic entomologists and other field workers in the Prairie Provinces and elsewhere to identify the species of this important group of plant bugs so often encountered in field surveys and control programs. This faunal work treats the species of Miridae known to occur in the Prairie Provinces. The work was initiated by the late Arthur R. Brooks and the author in 1949 at Agriculture Canada's Research Station, Saskatoon, Sask. At the outset, many difficulties were encountered in identifying species because the only publications available were Knight (1923b,1941c) and Blatchley (1926). With the publication of A catalogue of the Miridae of the world by Carvalho (1951-1959), and subsequent publications by Kelton (see References), Kelton and Knight (1962), Knight (1974), and Kelton and Herring (1978),45 species have been reported from the Prairie Provinces. This work shows that 314 species of Miridae occur in this area. Most of the species are restricted to the Nearctic region, but 27 species are Holarctic in distribution. Most of the Holarctic species are native to North America, but several have been introduced by man. In economic terms the effect of harmful species seems to far outweigh the beneficial effect of the predaceous speciet. ttt" bugs suck juices from plants and when large populations are allowed to develop, they may destroy or greatly reduce the yield of grain, seed, and vegetable crops.

The neococcoids form a mono- phyletic group supported by both morphological and genetic data. In contrast, the monophyly of the archaeococcoids is uncertain and the higher level ranks within it have been controversial, particularly since the late Professor Jan Koteja introduced his multi-family classification for scale insects in 1974. Recent phylogenetic studies using molecular and morphological data support the recognition of up to 15 extant families of archaeococcoids, including 11 families for the former Margarodidae sensu lato, vindicating Koteja’s views. Archaeococcoids are represented better in the fossil record than neococcoids, and have an adequate record through the Tertiary and Cretaceous but almost no putative coccoid fos- sils are known from earlier.

For Sale by the U.S. Government Printing Office ii Superintendent of Documents, Mail Stop, SSOP. Washington, DC 20402-9328 ISBN O-1 6-042075-X Foreword on-indigenous species (NIS)-----those species found beyond their natural ranges—are part and parcel of the U.S. landscape. Many are highly beneficial. Almost all U.S. crops and domesticated animals, many sport fish and aquiculture species, numerous horticultural plants, and most biologicalN control organisms have origins outside the country. A large number of NIS, however, cause significant economic, environmental, and health damage. These harmful species are the focus of this study. The total number of harmful NIS and their cumulative impacts are creating a growing burden for the country. We cannot completely stop the tide of new harmful introductions. Perfect screening, detection, and control are technically impossible and will remain so for the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, the Federal and State policies designed to protect us from the worst species are not safeguarding our national interests in important areas. These conclusions have a number of policy implications. First, the Nation has no real national policy on harmful introductions; the current system is piecemeal, lacking adequate rigor and comprehensiveness. Second, many Federal and State statutes, regulations, and programs are not keeping pace with new and spreading non-indigenous pests.

  • Correlation of Stylet Activities by the Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter, Homalodisca Coagulata (Say), with Electrical Penetration Graph (EPG) Waveforms

Rubidoux Field Station, 4500 Glenwood Dr., Bldg. E, Riverside, CA 92501, USA dCollege of Life Sciences, Peking Univerisity, Beijing, China Received 5 May 2005; received in revised form 29 November 2005; accepted 29 November 2005 Abstract Glassy-winged sharpshooter, Homalodisca coagulata (Say), is an efficient vector of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf), the causal bacterium of Pierce’s disease, and leaf scorch in almond and oleander. Acquisition and inoculation of Xf occur sometime during the process of stylet penetration into the plant. That process is most rigorously studied via electrical penetration graph (EPG) monitoring of insect feeding. This study provides part of the crucial biological meanings that define the waveforms of each new insect species recorded by EPG. By synchronizing AC EPG waveforms with high-magnification video of H. coagulata stylet penetration in artifical diet, we correlated stylet activities with three previously described EPG pathway waveforms, A1, B1 and B2, as well as one ingestion waveform, C. Waveform A1 occured at the beginning of stylet penetration. This waveform was correlated with salivary sheath trunk formation, repetitive stylet movements involving retraction of both maxillary stylets and one mandibular stylet, extension of the stylet fascicle, and the fluttering-like movements of the maxillary stylet tips.

A quantum leap was taken somewhere in 2016-17 when Kevin Browne introduced me to Google Scholar – and we were off to the races.

  • ARTHROPODA Subphylum Hexapoda Protura, Springtails, Diplura, and Insects
    NINE Phylum ARTHROPODA SUBPHYLUM HEXAPODA Protura, springtails, Diplura, and insects ROD P. MACFARLANE, PETER A. MADDISON, IAN G. ANDREW, JOCELYN A. BERRY, PETER M. JOHNS, ROBERT J. B.

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000).
