The 3rd European Workshop on Sea Buckthorn (EuroWorkS2014) was held in Naantali, Finland on 14th to 16th of October 2014 under the theme “Producing Sea Buckthorn of High Quality”. Conference concentrated on three topics that were recognized to be current under the theme: sea buckthorn fly, cultivation technology and standardization of sea buckthorn. A special attention was paid to sea buckthorn fly because of its rapid and destructive invasion to Europe. Protective measurements need to be studied fast to get this new pest under control. Also long-term strategies are needed in order to continue efficient berry production, also without pesti- cides. Dr. Ljubov Shamanskaja has a long research experience with sea buckthorn fly in Barnaul, Rus- sia, where the fly has been a problem over 20 years.

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.

Females of the parasitoid produced a greater number of eggs when exposed to 25◦C (124.65 eggs) in relation to those exposed to 20 (43.40 eggs) and 30◦C (49.60 eggs). The number of parasitized larvae per female of B. vulgaris at 25◦C (71.75) was greater than at 20◦C (31.40) and 30◦C (25.15). The daily intrinsic rates of increase (rm) were –0.007 at 20◦C, 0.07 at 25◦C and 0.03 at 30◦C, revealing that the temperature of 25◦C produced increases of 1,100 and 133% in the value rm in relation to temperatures of 20 and 30◦C, respectively.

I am more grateful than I can express for his support and for the confidence he placed in my research. I am very grateful to many members of the Stouthamer lab for their help and contributions. Dr. Paul Rugman-Jones gave essential support and guidance during all phases of this project, and contributed substantially to the design and troubleshooting of molecular analyses. The success of the field experiment described in Chapter 2 is entirely due to the efforts of Dr. Anna Soper. Fallon Fowler, Mariana Romo, and Sarah Smith provided excellent field and lab assistance that was instrumental in completing this research. I could not have done it alone, especially at 4:00 AM.

Milne4, Nicholas S. Gladstone5, Annette S. Engel6, John B. Jensen7, Carlos D. Camp8, James C. Ozier9, and Alan Cressler10 Abstract We provide an annotated checklist of species recorded from caves and other subterranean habitats in the state of Georgia, USA. We report 281 species (228 invertebrates and 53 vertebrates), including 51 troglobionts (cave-obligate species), from more than 150 sites (caves, springs, and wells). Endemism is high; of the troglobionts, 17 (33 % of those known from the state) are endemic to Georgia and seven (14 %) are known from a single cave. We identified three biogeographic clusters of troglobionts. Two clusters are located in the northwestern part of the state, west of Lookout Mountain in Lookout Valley and east of Lookout Mountain in the Valley and Ridge. In addition, there is a group of tro- globionts found only in the southwestern corner of the state and associated with the Upper Floridan Aquifer. At least two dozen potentially undescribed species have been collected from caves; clarifying the taxonomic status of these organisms would improve our understanding of cave biodiversity in the state.
