  • Agapanthus Gall Midge – Update 29 July 2015 (Hayley Jones, Andrew Salisbury)
    Agapanthus Gall Midge – update 29 July 2015 (Hayley Jones, Andrew Salisbury) The agapanthus gall midge is a new undescribed pest affecting Agapanthus that belongs to the Cecidomyiidae family of flies. The tiny gall midge lays eggs which develop into maggots inside the individual flower buds or inside the closed scapes. The maggots can then cause the bud to be deformed and discoloured and often fail to open. The severity of this can range from a couple of buds failing to collapse of the entire flower head. Infestation can be confirmed by opening the buds or flower heads and looking for the presence of small maggots 1-3mm in length which are a creamy yellow colour. The midge larvae leave the flower head to overwinter and pupate in the soil. The species of midge causing this problem is undescribed (new to science). Consequently, very little is known about the biology and lifecycle of this insect and so the entomology team at Wisley have launched a project to study it. Page 1 of 3 Statutory action Fera have informed us that following a Plant Health Risk Group meeting the agapanthus gall midge will be added to the UK Plant Heath Risk Register. Fera intend to follow up with statutory action against findings on commercially traded plants. The Plant Health and Seed Inspectorate have indicated that they will commence a targeted survey of nurseries in the near future. They call for the targeted survey and awareness raising to help determine the distribution of the midge and scope for actions to mitigate impacts. AHDB are also aware of the midge.

  • Volume 2 Number 2 October 2011
    The Doncaster Naturalist Volume 2 Number 2 October 2011 Doncaster Naturalists' Society Editorial It has been another busy year for the Doncaster Naturalists' Society, thanks to the efforts of Louise Hill, our indefatigable President. She has ensured that the DNS is one of the most active of local natural history societies, and, together with Pip Seccombe, has organised a full set of activities for the forseeable future. Several DNS members also took part in field work over the last few years for a new atlas of the region's flora. The results of their labours, under the direction of Geoffrey Wilmore, will soon be available to see. The forthcoming launch in Doncaster of The South Yorkshire Plant Atlas, edited by Geoffrey Wilmore, Jeff Lunn and Professor Rodwell is a notable coup, and means that the Society will be playing host to many of the region's top naturalists. Botanical themes feature strongly in this issue of The Doncaster Naturalist. Pip Seccombe's update on her work to protect the Fritllaries at Owston is a fascinating story with a very positive result. Less happy though are the articles concerning invasive alien plants and the problems thy are causing. Owls and their pellets are topics for two articles which provide us with insights into their diets and other habits. This edition of The Doncaster Naturalist inevitably looks back at the past activities of our members and friends. The range of topics is again wide, and we have sufficient material to produce an edition with fourty-four pages this time. Contributions are welcomed from all, whether they are reports of research, descriptive anecdotes, drawings, poetry or photographs.

  • A New Species of Antrodia (Basidiomycota, Polypores) from China
    Mycosphere 8(7): 878–885 (2017) www.mycosphere.org ISSN 2077 7019 Article Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/8/7/4 Copyright © Guizhou Academy of Agricultural Sciences A new species of Antrodia (Basidiomycota, Polypores) from China Chen YY, Wu F* Institute of Microbiology, Beijing Forestry University, Beijing 100083, China Chen YY, Wu F 2017 –A new species of Antrodia (Basidiomycota, Polypores) from China. Mycosphere 8(7), 878–885, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/8/7/4 Abstract A new species, Antrodia monomitica sp. nov., is described and illustrated from China based on morphological characters and molecular evidence. It is characterized by producing annual, fragile and nodulose basidiomata, a monomitic hyphal system with clamp connections on generative hyphae, hyaline, thin-walled and fusiform to mango-shaped basidiospores (6–7.5 × 2.3– 3 µm), and causing a typical brown rot. In phylogenetic analysis inferred from ITS and nLSU rDNA sequences, the new species forms a distinct lineage in the Antrodia s. l., and has a close relationship with A. oleracea.

Phytomyza linguae Lundqvist, 1947 is recorded as new to Finland. Keywords Checklist, Finland, Diptera, biodiversity, faunistics Introduction The Agromyzidae are called the leaf-miner or leaf-mining flies and not without reason, although a substantial fraction of the species feed as larvae on other parts of living plants. While Agromyzidae is traditionally placed in the superfamily Opomyzoidea, its exact relationships with other acalyptrate Diptera are poorly understood (see for example Winkler et al. 2010). Two subfamilies are recognised within the leaf-mining flies: Agromyzinae and Phytomyzinae. Both are now recognised as natural groups (Dempewolf 2005, Scheffer et al. 2007). Unfortunately the genera are not as well defined: at least Ophiomyia, Phy- toliriomyza and Aulagromyza are paraphyletic in DNA sequence analyses (see Scheffer et al.
