Optomotor Regulation of Ground Velocity in Moths During Flight to Sex Pheromone at Different Heights
Physzologzcal Entomology (1982) 7,193-202 Optomotor regulation of ground velocity in moths during flight to sex pheromone at different heights L P S KUENEN and T. C BAKER Division of Toxicology and Physiology, Department of Entomology, University of California, Riverside, U.S A ABSTRACT Males of two species of moths (Grapholitha molesta (Busck) and Hehothis virescens (F )) were flown in a sustained-flight tunnel in horizontal pheromone plumes The up-tunnel velocity of the moths increased with increasing height of flight and for G molesta was independent of tunnel wind velocities Use of moving ground patterns verified that the height of flight above the ground was the factor related to the changes in up-tunnel velocity. Even though up-tunnel velocity increased with incieased flight height, angular velocity of image motion did not. Males appeared to use visual cues from the ground pattern and from other sources to determine their up-tunnel velocities The relationship of preferred retinal velocities to optomotoi anemotaxis is discussed Key words.

More than 89% of all interceptions are from Haiti. Origin Host(s) Haiti Abelmoschus esculentus Fig. 3: T1 shield Recorded distribution Pectinophora gossypiella is distributed in scattered locations throughout southern Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and Australia. In the New World it occurs from the southern U.S. to Argentina, including the Caribbean (Gall 1966, Hill 1975). Identifcation authority (Summary) It is important to restrict identifications of P. gossypiella to the proper hosts and known distribution. Pectinophora gossypiella feeds on Malvaceae and has been recorded from the Fig. 4: Abd. crochets Fig. 5: Anal crochets locations listed above. Many of the exotic species related to the pink bollworm, although not common at ports, represent a serious threat to North American agriculture. -
Recent Literature on Lepidoptera
1956 The Lepidopterists' News 121 RECENT LITERATURE ON LEPIDOPTERA (Under the supervision of PBTER F. BELLINGER) Under this heading are included abstracts of papers and books of interest to lepidop terists. The world's literature is searched systematically, and it is intended that every work on Lepidoptera published after 1946 will be noticed here; omissions of papers more than 3 or 4 years old should be called to Dr. BELLINGER'S attention. New genera and higher categories are shown in CAPITALS, with types in parentheses; new species and subspecies are noted, with type localities if given in print, Larval food plants are usually listed. Critical comments by abstractors may be made. Papers of only local interest and papers from The Lepidopterists' News are listed without abstract. Readers, particularly outside of North America, interested in assisting with this very large task, are invited to write Dr. BELLINGER (Osborn Zoological Lab., Yale Universiry, New Haven 11, Conn., U.

A thesis submitted by D.G.Campion, B.Sc. for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London. 7 Imperial College Field Station, Sunninghill, Ascot, Berkshire. August, 1970. -2- STP,L.CT 1i4 potential chemosterilants were evaluated by injection application to the noctuid Diparopsis castanea. The most effective was tris-(l-aziridinyl) phosphine oxide (tepa). Sterility in male moths was permanent although the insects were sexually competitive. Male 4%utographa gamma were similarly sterilised. Both mating effectiveness and oviposition were reduced when female Diparopsis were injected with sterilising doses. Tepa also sterilised male Diparopsis when applied topically in acetone, after overnight contact on treated surfaces or by probing on aqueous solution. In all three instances the sterilised moths were sexually competitive. Male Diparopsis were attracted to virgin females confined in a prototype bait-station; but on arrival did not often probe until at least 3 days old. Unless probing occurred the moths were not sterilized by momentary contact. To facilitate chemosterilant penetration after momentary contact, certain oils were applied to male moths, but all reduced mating effectiveness. Results from population models suggested that the advantage of sterilising attracted males instead of killing them would be slight. Tepa was degraded rapidly when applied to male Diparopsis topically or by injection at temperatures prevailing under field conditions in Central .:,frica. Tepa treatment of female Diparopsis caused a degeneration of young oocytes within 3 days and a shrinkage of mature eggs. No marked effects on the testes of Diparopsis or Lutographa were noted after similar treatment. -

Genetic Control
Chapter 16 GENETIC CONTROL E. J. Villavaso USDA, ARS, Boll Weevil Research Unit Mississippi State, Mississippi and A. C. Bartlett USDA, ARS, Western Cotton Research Laboratory Phoenix, Arizona and M. L. Laster USDA, ARS, Southern Insect Management Laboratory Stoneville, Mississippi INTRODUCTION The control of insects which annoy man or attack his food and fiber crops largely had been the exclusive domain of entomologists (and perhaps toxicologists) up to the early 1960s when geneticists became involved in certain new techniques called "genetic" or "autocidal" control procedures. A Russian geneticist suggested the use of clu·omosomal translocations to influence the reproduction of harmful species (Serebrovsky, 1940). However, this suggestion effectively was lost to entomological research until resurrected by Curtis (1968) [for a complete discussion of the history of genetic thought in insect control procedures see Whitten (1985)]. All methods of genetic control require the introduction of detrimental traits into the target population by the release of suitable carrier insects. Released insects are usually reared under laboratory conditions that emphasize mass-production. The quality of a released insect is a poorly understood concept that usually is secondary to production of high numbers. By its very nature, laboratory rearing often produces insects that are less fit than the native insects for life outside the laboratmy. However, as LaChance (1 979) indicated, the components of fi tness for the released and native insects are not necessarily the same. Released insects need not be identical to natives to be effective. The released insects must mate with enough members of the target population to intro- duce their genes into that population, or, in the case of sterile insects, reduce egg hatch sufficiently to effect a negative rate of reproduction. -
