Hymenoptera, Eulophidae) Reared in Oothecae of Periplaneta Americana (Linnaeus, 1758) (Blattaria, Blattidae)
Biotemas, 26 (2): 271-275, junho de 2013 doi: 10.5007/2175-7925.2013v26n2p271271 ISSNe 2175-7925 Short Communication Thermal requirements of Aprostocetus hagenowii (Ratzeburg, 1852) (Hymenoptera, Eulophidae) reared in oothecae of Periplaneta americana (Linnaeus, 1758) (Blattaria, Blattidae) Marcial Corrêa Cárcamo * Francielly Felchicher Jucelio Peter Duarte Rodrigo Ferreira Krüger Élvia Elena Silveira Vianna Paulo Bretanha Ribeiro Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Instituto de Biologia, Departamento de Microbiologia e Parasitologia Caixa Postal 354, Campus Universitário Capão do Leão, CEP 96010-900, Pelotas – RS, Brazil * Autor para correspondência [email protected] Submetido em 06/08/2012 Aceito para publicação em 19/02/2013 Resumo Exigências térmicas de Aprostocetus hagenowii (Ratzeburg, 1852) (Hymenoptera, Eulophidae) criados em ootecas de Periplaneta americana Linnaeus, 1758 (Blattaria, Blattidae). O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar as exigências térmicas de Aprostocetus hagenowii em ootecas de Periplaneta americana, bem como a influência das diferentes temperaturas na biologia do parasitoide. Ootecas com idade máxima de oito dias e peso variando entre 0,09 e 0,10 g foram individualizadas em placas de Petri com um casal de A. hagenowii, ficando expostas ao parasitismo. Parasitoides e ootecas permaneceram juntos por 24 h a 25°C; após esse período, os casais foram retirados e as placas contendo ootecas foram transferidas para câmaras às temperaturas de 15, 20, 25, 27, 30 e 35°C. Para cada temperatura foram realizadas trinta réplicas. A duração do ciclo (ovo-adulto) de A. hagenowii apresentou uma tendência inversa à temperatura. A maior viabilidade de emergência do parasitoide (70%) encontrada neste estudo foi à temperatura de 25°C e a menor viabilidade (50%) ocorreu na temperatura de 30°C. -

Ramin Agriculture and Natural Resources University, Mollasani, Ahvaz, Iran. 2. East-Azarbaijan Research Center for Agriculture and Natural Resources, Tabriz, Iran. Abstract: This is the first report of two ectoparasitoid wasps, Elachertus inunctus (Nees, 1834) in Iran and Elachertus pulcher (Erdös, 1961) (Hym.: Eulophidae) in the world, that parasitize larvae of the tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lep.: Gelechiidae). The specimens were collected from tomato fields and greenhouses in Ahwaz, Khouzestan province (south west of Iran). Both species are new records for fauna of Iran. The knowledge about these parasitoids is still scanty. The potential of these parasitoids for biological control of T. absoluta in tomato fields and greenhouses should be investigated.

From these organisms, which 15 of parasitoid species were found, those species belonging to 5 families in of the order Hymenoptera (Ichneumonidae, Chalcididae, Eulophidae, Elasmidae, Pteromalidae). Nine of these, in which there were 9 of were ichneumonid wasp species: Xanthopimpla flavolineata, Goryphus basilaris, Xanthopimpla punctata, Itoplectis naranyae, Coccygomimus nipponicus, Coccygomimus aethiops, Phaeogenes sp., Atanyjoppa akonis, Triptognatus sp. We discuss the general biology, habitat preferences, and host association of the knowledge of three of these parasitoids, (Xanthopimpla flavolineata, Phaeogenes sp., and Goryphus basilaris). Including general biology, habitat preferences and host association were indicated and discussed. -

Parasitoid Abundance of Archips Rosana (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in Organic Cherry Orchards

E-mail: [email protected], Tel.: +90 284 2352825-1195, Fax: +90 284 2354010 Received: 24. October 2012 / Accepted: 07. April 2013 / Available online: 13. December 2013 / Printed: June 2014 Abstract. Archips rosana (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), a highly polyphagous pest species, has potential economic importance on fruit crops. The present study aimed to gather data on species composition of parasitoids of Archips rosana. It was carried out in the years 2010-2011 in organic cherry orchards in the province of Edirne (Turkey). Twenty-two parasitic hymenopteran species belonging to three families (Ichneumonidae, Braconidae and Chalcididae) and one dipteran species (Tachinidae) were determined. Braconidae was found to be the most frequently represented family with 13 species, followed by Ichneumonidae 8, Chalcididae and Tachinidae with one species, respectively. Parasitoids from the superfamily Ichneumonoidea (Braconidae and Ichneumonidae) turned out to be the most effective, and the dominating species was endoparasitoid Itoplectis maculator (Fabricius, 1775). Archips rosana was found for the first time to serve as a host for Pimpla spuria Gravenhorst, 1829; Scambus buolianae (Hartig, 1838); Bracon (Habrobracon) hebetor Say, 1836; Bracon (Bracon) intercessor Nees, 1834; Meteorus versicolor (Wesmael, 1835) and Meteorus rufus (DeGeer, 1778). This information should be helpful in the development of biological control programs to manage A. rosana in cherry orchards. -
