A key to Oriental Omyomymar species is provided with color images of new species for easy morphological diagnosis. Key words: Chalcidoidea, Mymaridae, Omyomymar, India, new species, key. Introduction Ogloblin (1935) described two species, Paranaphoidea silvana and P. clavata from South America. But Schauff (1983) erected the genus Omyomymar with P. silvanum as the type species by transferring the species P. silvana from Paranaphoidea to Omyomymar. In addition to the two species described by Ogloblin (1935), Schauff (1983) described two species, O. grisselli, and O. alar from the New World and also transferred P. clavata to Omyomymar. Later, Lin and Chiappini (1996) described three new species (O. glabrum, O. breve and O. longidigitum) from the Old World, China. There was no report of Omyomymar from India till 2010, when Manickavasagam & Rameshkumar (2011) reported this genus for the first time in India based on two females. Subsequently Manickavasagam et al.

Yet another warm spring enabled a few of us to get out and about around the county a few times in February. This came to abrupt end with the restrictions imposed by the outbreak of Foot and Mouth. The restrictions only started easing in May meaning that the SMG larval hunt at West Stow had to be transferred to Milden Hall farm (thanks to Juliet Hawkins for allowing us on her farm at short notice). Poor weather over this period meant that species were quite late in emerging giving the impression that flight periods were late and extended with numbers of moths recorded down.

  • The Distribution and Habitat Preferences of Bats in a Temperate Urban Landscape
    The distribution and habitat preferences of bats in a temperate urban landscape Paul Lintott July 2015 Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Biological & Environmental Sciences, School of Natural Sciences The University of Stirling Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis has been composed by myself and that it embodies the results of my own research. Where appropriate, I have acknowledged the nature and extent of work carried out in collaboration with others. ………………………………………………………………………….. Paul Lintott Summary Urbanisation is a key driver in the loss, fragmentation and modification of natural habitats resulting in the global loss of biodiversity. As the human population, and consequently the rate of urbanisation, continues to increase exponentially it is important to understand how to sustain and enhance biodiversity within the built environment. Cities comprise a complex assortment of habitat types yet relatively little is known of how its composition and spatial configuration can influence species presence or foraging activities. It is therefore necessary to examine habitat use and biodiversity patterns at multiple spatial scales to fully understand how species are responding to the urban matrix. There are few other orders of animals that are as strongly associated with people as bats (Chiroptera); for some bat species human habitations provide roosts and adaptations of the environment provide food sources. However bat species richness generally declines with increasing urbanisation indicating that many species are not able to persist in highly urbanised areas. In this thesis, I show that the behaviour, habitat preferences, and distribution of bats are strongly influenced by the built environment at both a local and landscape scale.

Received: 28 December 2018; Accepted: 3 February 2019; Published: 8 February 2019 Abstract: Termites are social insects of economic importance that have a worldwide distribution. Identifying termite species has traditionally relied on morphometric characters. Recently, several mitochondrial genes have been used as genetic markers to determine the correlation between different species. Heavy metal accumulation causes serious health problems in humans and animals. Being involved in the food chain, insects are used as bioindicators of heavy metals. In the present study, 100 termite individuals of Anacanthotermes ochraceus were collected from two Saudi Arabian localities with different geoclimatic conditions (Riyadh and Taif). These individuals were subjected to morphological identification followed by molecular analysis using mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene sequence, thus confirming the morphological identification of A. ochraceus. Furthermore, a phylogenetic analysis was conducted to determine the genetic relationship between the acquired species and other termite species with sequences previously submitted in the GenBank database. Several heavy metals including Ca, Al, Mg, Zn, Fe, Cu, Mn, Ba, Cr, Co, Be, Ni, V, Pb, Cd, and Mo were measured in both collected termites and soil samples from both study sites.

Received: 28 December 2018; Accepted: 3 February 2019; Published: 8 February 2019 Abstract: Termites are social insects of economic importance that have a worldwide distribution. Identifying termite species has traditionally relied on morphometric characters. Recently, several mitochondrial genes have been used as genetic markers to determine the correlation between different species. Heavy metal accumulation causes serious health problems in humans and animals. Being involved in the food chain, insects are used as bioindicators of heavy metals. In the present study, 100 termite individuals of Anacanthotermes ochraceus were collected from two Saudi Arabian localities with different geoclimatic conditions (Riyadh and Taif). These individuals were subjected to morphological identification followed by molecular analysis using mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene sequence, thus confirming the morphological identification of A. ochraceus. Furthermore, a phylogenetic analysis was conducted to determine the genetic relationship between the acquired species and other termite species with sequences previously submitted in the GenBank database. Several heavy metals including Ca, Al, Mg, Zn, Fe, Cu, Mn, Ba, Cr, Co, Be, Ni, V, Pb, Cd, and Mo were measured in both collected termites and soil samples from both study sites.

In this article we investigated the role played by the ovipositing O. telenomicida female in the suppression of a T. basalis competitor. Laboratory experiments were conducted by allowing an O. telenomicida female to punc- ture the eggs of Nezara viridula (L.) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) with her ovipositor (= no oviposi- tion) or to parasitize them. The results show that O. telenomicida relies on some physiological mechanisms to mediate its interspecific intrinsic competition with T. basalis. In fact, the emergence of T. basalis was strongly reduced in host eggs that were parasitized either before or after being punc- tured by O. telenomicida at fixed time intervals (5, 15, 30, or 45 h). The low percentage of emergence of T. basalis (ranging from approximately 4–20%) was a consequence of the delay and growth rate reduction of larval development.
