Miconia calvescens (Melastomataceae) je dřevina původně rozšířená ve Střední a Jižní Ame- rice, představující dnes riziko pro mnoho tropických ekosystémů. Rod Diclidophlebia Crawford, 1920 (Liviidae: Liviinae) je nadějná skupina mer pro vyhledání vhodných druhů pro potlačení této invazní rostliny. Tato bakalářská práce se věnuje taxonomii jedinců rodu Diclidophlebia nasbíraných v Kostarice a Belize a uložených ve sbírkách Natural History Museum v Londýně.

A TAXONOMIC STUDY OF JUMPING PLANT LICE OF THE SUBFAMILY LIVIINAE (HEMIPTERA: PSYLLOIDEA) IN CENTRAL AMERICA Abstract Jumping plant-lice (Insecta: Hemiptera: Psylloidea) can be potentially used as biocontrol agents against invasive plants due to their monopha- gous behavior. Miconia calvescens (Melastomataceae), originally distrib- uted in Central and South America, represents a threat to numerous eco- systems in the tropics, and Diclidophlebia Crawford, 1920 (Liviidae: Liv- iinae) is a promising jumping plant-louse genus for finding a suitable agent. This bachelor thesis deals with the taxonomy of Diclidophlebia specimens collected in Costa Rica and Belize and deposited in the Natural History Museum, London. From this material, eight new species of Dicli- dophlebia were informally described and illustrated. Identification key to Liviinae of Central America including previously known and newly de- scribed species was also provided. 5 A TAXONOMIC STUDY OF JUMPING PLANT LICE OF THE SUBFAMILY LIVIINAE (HEMIPTERA: PSYLLOIDEA) IN CENTRAL AMERICA Declaration Prohlašuji, že jsem svoji práci vypracovala samostatně pod vedením ve- doucího práce s využitím informačních zdrojů, které jsou v práci ci- továny.

Similar to aphids, they feed on plant sap from phloem vessels. Usually they are narrowly host-specific in terms of maturation period and premature feeding, although adult psyllids can appear on plants unsuitable for nymphal development (Hodkinson 1974, Burckhardt et al. 2014). Some psyllids are well- known for their economic importance, often as vectors of phytopathogenic bacteria re- siding in plant phloem. For example, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, 1908 and Trioza erytreae Del Guercio, 1918 are vectors of Candidatus Liberibacter spp., causing the huanglongbing or citrus greening disease (Aubert 1987, Halbert & Manjunath 2004, Bové 2006). The disease causes high citrus tree mortality, reduce yields, and decrease fruit size (Spreen et al. 2014). There are more than 4000 described species of psyllids, however the taxonomic knowledge of the group in different parts of the world is highly uneven. Tropical psyllids in general are quite poorly explored (Burckhardt & Queiroz 2012). This is also true for Central America, with the exception of Panama, the psyllid fauna of which was mono- graphed by Brown & Hodkinson (1988). Beside the ultimate goal of biological systemat- ics to complete the biodiversity inventory of the world, there is a practical reason why to study Central American psyllids in particular. Miconia calvescens (Melastomataceae), an invasive plant native to the region, represents a serious threat to the highly endemic biota in many Pacific islands where it was introduced (Meyer & Florence 1996). Incorporation of a suitable biocontrol agent in the management strategy is perhaps the only way to con- trol M. calvescens (Meyer et al. 2011). Many Neotropical psyllids of the genus Dicli- dophlebia Crawford, 1920 (Liviidae: Liviinae) are associated with the Melastomataceae family and two previously described species, D. lucens Burckhardt et al., 2005 from Costa Rica and D. smithi Burckhardt et al., 2006 from Brazil, are known to develop specifically on M. calvescens (Burckhardt et al. 2005, 2006). Therefore, there is a chance to find a suitable biocontrol agent among psyllids by studying Neotropical fauna. 15 INTRODUCTION However, the systematics of Liviidae and Diclidophlebia has been obscure and subject to many changes in classification and nomenclature in the past (Burckhardt & Mifsud 2003, Burckhardt & Ouvrard 2012, Burckhardt et al. 2021). Based on ongoing molecular and morphological studies of Liviinae systematics, Diclidophlebia is not monophyletic and should be revised (Štarhová Serbina & Malenovský, pers. comm.). A detailed docu- mentation of the taxonomic diversity based on the study of material from previously poorly explored regions already available in museum collections is one of the steps to- wards a better knowledge of Liviinae systematics and a proper selection of potentially suitable species to control the invasive Miconia. 1.1 Aims of the bachelor thesis This bachelor thesis has the following aims:

Meiotic karyotypes in males of 10 species (assigned to 5 genera and 3 subfamilies) of the family Psyllidae and one species of the family Triozidae are described for the first time. The first data on the genus Crastina are presented. All the species were shown to exhibit the usual (modal) psyllid karyotype of 2n = 24 + X except for Craspedolepta villosa and Crastina myricariae, in which 2n = 22 + X and 2n = 24 + XY are found respectively.

Box FM730, Famona, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe Vegetation Survey of Mt Gorongosa, page 2 SUMMARY Mount Gorongosa is a large inselberg almost 700 sq. km in extent in central Mozambique. With a vertical relief of between 900 and 1400 m above the surrounding plain, the highest point is at 1863 m. The mountain consists of a Lower Zone (mainly below 1100 m altitude) containing settlements and over which the natural vegetation cover has been strongly modified by people, and an Upper Zone in which much of the natural vegetation is still well preserved. Both zones are very important to the hydrology of surrounding areas. Immediately adjacent to the mountain lies Gorongosa National Park, one of Mozambique's main conservation areas. A key issue in recent years has been whether and how to incorporate the upper parts of Mount Gorongosa above 700 m altitude into the existing National Park, which is primarily lowland. [These areas were eventually incorporated into the National Park in 2010.] In recent years the unique biodiversity and scenic beauty of Mount Gorongosa have come under severe threat from the destruction of natural vegetation. This is particularly acute as regards moist evergreen forest, the loss of which has accelerated to alarming proportions.

The classifi cation of the superfamily Psylloidea is revised to incorporate fi ndings from recent molecular studies, and to integrate a reassessment of monophyla primarily based on molecular data with morphological evidence and previous classifi cations. We incorporate a reinterpretation of relevant morphology in the light of the molecular fi ndings and discuss confl icts with respect to different data sources and sampling strategies. Seven families are recognised of which four (Calophyidae, Carsidaridae, Mastigimatidae and Triozidae) are strongly supported, and three (Aphalaridae, Liviidae and Psyllidae) weakly or moderately supported.

FEKRAT1 1Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, Iran 2Institute of Zoology, Ilia State University, Tbilisi, Georgia (Received: 11 November 2018; accepted: 16 November 2018) A survey of gall-inducing aphids on elm and poplar trees was carried out during 2017 in Razavi Kho- rasan province, NE Iran. As a result, 15 species of gall-inducing aphids from 5 genera, all belonging to the subfamily Eriosomatinae, were recorded on 6 host plant species. The collected species included the genera Eriosoma, Kaltenbachiella, Pemphigus, Tetraneura and Thecabius. Pemphigus passeki Börner (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and Pemphigus populinigrae (Schrank) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Populus nigra var. italica (Sal- icaceae) were new records for the Iranian aphid fauna. Both new recorded species belong to the tribe Pem- phigini, subfamily Eriosomatinae. Among the identified species, 8 aphid species were new records for Razavi Khorasan province. Keywords: Aphid, elm, poplar, fauna, gall-inducing aphid. Many insect groups, around 13,000 species, are known as plant gall makers (Nyman and Julkunen-Tiitto, 2000; Suzuki et al., 2009). Among them, Aphidoidea is a very large superfamily in the hemipteran suborder Sternorrhyncha with about 5000 known species (Blackman and Eastop, 2000; Ge et al., 2016).
