In addition, because it is often difficult coast to municipalities in the interior of the State to remove these insects from produce such as such as Venda Nova do Imigrante (20.38°S; fruits they may be considered to be cosmetically 41.19°W), and from a variety of sites including damaging and many diaspidid species are also of experimental research plots, commercial fields, quarantine concern requiring management to private homes, and the Reserva Natural da Vale prevent their spread through export of plant do Rio Doce. The samples were transported to the products (Miller et al. 2005). Espírito Santo rural research and extension institute INCAPER (Instituto Capixaba de Although approximately 150 diaspidid species Pesquisa, Assistência Técnica e Extensão Rural) have been recorded from Brazil, only 5 have been headquarters in Vitória for photographing and previously identified from the State of Espírito preservation of the diaspidid specimens. The Santo (Silva et al. 1968; Claps et al. 1999; Claps et specimens were slide-mounted for identification al. 2001; Martins et al. 2004). Espírito Santo is a using 10% sodium hydroxide for clearing, relatively small State (46,078 km2) located in the dehydration in alcohol, and Canada balsam east central region of Brazil (between ~18°S and mounting medium. Voucher specimens of these 21°S) but includes a diverse variety of insects are deposited in the arthropod collections environments ranging from coastal to ~3,000 m of INCAPER, Vitória, Espírito Santo, and the altitude. The State is at the center of one of the Museu de Entomologia Professor Ramiro Gomes world’s most biologically diverse ecosystems, the Costa, Fundação Estadual de Pesquisa Mata Atlântica, and contains some of the most Agropecuária FEPAGRO, Porto Alegre, Rio biologically diverse forests in the world (Mori Grande do Sul, Brasil. 1989; Thomaz & Monteiro 1997). Agriculture is also an important part of the State’s economy with major crops including coffee, sugarcane, and Results fruits such as papaya. Preservation of biodiversity Diaspidids were identified from approximately and development of sustainable agriculture, based 100 plant samples representing at least 30 species on practices such as integrated pest management in 20 plant families consisting mainly of tropical (IPM), in Espírito Santo and similar areas fruits and ornamentals. Twenty-seven species of depends on increased knowledge of the actual armored scale insects that have not previously biological diversity (pest and beneficial insects, been recorded from Espírito Santo were identified for example) present in such areas. Therefore, in this study, bringing the total number of species because information on the insect fauna of of armored scale insects known from this State to Espírito Santo is needed for preservation of 31 (Table 1, Figure 1). Lepidosaphes gloverii biodiversity and sustainable development in this (Packard) was incorrectly reported from Espírito State, scale insects were collected during 2003 to Santo (and several other states in Brazil) in Claps 2006 from various plants in the State to identify et al.

Here we of L. gloverii in Brazil is São Paulo (Silva et. document new armored scale insect records for al.1968) and Rio Grande do Sul (Wolff and Espírito Santo based on these recent collections to Corseuil 1994). Most of the diaspidids identified serve as a reference to the known scale insect from Espírito Santo are known to have a broad fauna of this area, as well as contribute to a more plant host range and wide geographic complete knowledge of diaspidid biogeography distribution.

Schum., immature inflorescences from El Salvador into the continental United States. Other than postharvest washing, drying, and sorting, we assumed no specialized phytosanitary treatments would be done. Several Lepidoptera species were found to be both quarantine species and likely to follow the pathway. We assessed these species and found that the Consequences of Introduction were negligible because the pests were unsuited for the climates in the continental United States, except in Southern Florida, and no Calathea spp. exist there. Since the lepidopteran had a Pest Risk Potential of Low, we did not list any risk mitigation options.

St. Andrews (Maur.) (Maur.) Department of Zoology & Applied Entomology, Imperial College of Science & Technology, South Kensington, London, S.W.7. March, 1965. 162. VOL.Z. XMFennahius+: A new genus of KINNARIDAE (Hemiptera - Fulgoroidea) common to Mauritius and Reunion. The KINNARIDAE show affinities with the CIXIIDAE not merely in their general overall resemblance, but in a number of morphological points to which attention has already been drawn by Muir and other workers, e.g., Metcalf, Fennah, Synave. Conventionally separated from one another by wing-venation, the quite dissimilar structure of the male genitalia confirms that the difference is of familial rank. The presence of wax-producing areas on the sixth, seventh and eighth tergites (vide Plate 18f - top left preparation) of the adult female is a character shared with the MEENOPLIDAE but not the CIXIIDAE. It is rather unfortunate that the members of the family have never been the subject of a special study. Examination of some of their characters (e.g., ? genitalia and text) suggests that in many features they present significant departures from the standard fulgoroid pattern. The presence of a large bursa-copulatrix and reduced valvulae (vide Plate 18b) in Paramicrixia diaphana makes investigation of the live insect highly desirable. The occurrence )f tblemmatarl-t minute ocelli-like structures placed close to each ocellus deserves +The author is privileged to dedicate this new genus to Mr.
