The park’s saproxylic beetle fauna, associated with dead wood and veteran trees, can be considered as nationally important. True flies associated with decaying wood add further significant species to the site’s saproxylic fauna. There is also a strong -

We report, for the first time, the occurrence of Paecilomyces niveus as an entomopathogen of the aphid Nasonovia ribisnigri in Pinhais, Paraná, Brazil. Samples of mummified aphids were collected from lettuce crops. The fungus P. niveus (PaePR) was isolated from the insect bodies and identified by macro and micromorphology. The species was confirmed by sequencing Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) rDNA. We obtained a sequence of 528 bp (accession number HQ441751), which aligned with Byssochlamys nivea strains (100% identities). In a bioassay, 120 h after inoculation of N. -
Natural Enemies of the Currant Lettuce Aphid, Nasonovia Ribisnigri (Mosely) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and Their Population Fluctuations in Ahvaz, Iran
J. Crop Prot. 2014, 3 (4):487-497_______________________________________________________ Research Article Natural enemies of the currant lettuce aphid, Nasonovia ribisnigri (Mosely) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and their population fluctuations in Ahvaz, Iran Afrooz Farsi1*, Farhan Kocheili1, Mohammad Saeed Mossadegh1, Arash Rasekh1 and Mehrzad Tavoosi2 1. Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Ahvaz, Iran. 2. Agriculture and Natural Resources Research Center of Khuzestan-Ahvaz. Abstract: Nasonovia ribisnigri (Mosely) is one of the most important pests of the lettuce plant and it was reported for the first time in Ahvaz in 2008. In order to investigate the dominant species of its natural enemies and their population fluctuations, sample were taken arbitrarily from fifty plants twice a week during the growing season in 2010-2012. In this study, ten species of predators, three species of parasitoids and two species of hyperparasitoids were collected and identified. Hoverflies with a relative frequency of 55% were the dominant predators. Peaks of lacewings and subsequently ladybird beetles were more coincident with peaks of aphid population in mid-March in the first year of studies. But their densities in the second year were very low. Also, hoverflies and parasitoids were mainly observed in the high densities in late March-early April, in both years. Regression analysis indicated that populations of aphids were mainly affected by ladybird beetles and lacewings in the first year of study, as well as by ladybird beetles, hoverflies and parasitoids in the second year. Therefore, additional studies are required for further evaluation on the potential abilities of these natural enemies being a good candidates for the future biological control programs. -
The Syrphid Fly, Mesogramma Marginata, and the Flowers of Apocynum.* *
THE SYRPHID FLY, MESOGRAMMA MARGINATA, AND THE FLOWERS OF APOCYNUM.* * RAYMOND C. OSBURN. The flowers of the various species of the dogbane, Apocynum spp., have long been known to catch some of the weaker sorts of insects attracted by them, but as far as I am aware, no such wholesale slaughter of a particular species as that herein •described has been noted. In fact, if I may judge by the con- versations which I have held with both botanists and entomol- ogists, the capacity of the dogbane for trapping insects has pretty generally escaped notice. My own attention was drawn to the subject last summer "when Miss Edith Weston, a young student of botany at the Ohio State University Lake Laboratory at Put-in-Bay, brought in some flowers of Apocynum androscemifolium and called my attention to the fact that the flowers had "bugs" in them. A glance at the flowers showed that there were insects in nearly all of them and that these were all of one species, the common little Syrphid fly, Mesogramma marginata (Say). Many of these were still alive, though evidently held in such a manner that they could not escape. As the flowers are open bells, my curiosity was aroused and I began a careful examination. Having in mind the related milkweed, Asclepias, whose flower clusters sometimes entangle the legs of insects by a sticky secretion, I was a little surprised to find that all of the flies in the Apocynum flowers were held by the proboscis. As many as four were present in some of the flowers, the little bell being as full as it would hold. -
Ultrastructure of Antennal Sensilla in Hydrotaea Armipes (Fallén) (Diptera: Muscidae): New Evidence for Taxonomy of the Genus Hydrotaea

E-mail: [email protected] (D. Z.); [email protected] (P.-F. L.) Qi-ke Wang and Xian-hui Liu contributed equally to this work. Abstract The morphology and ultrastructure of the antennal sensilla of male Hydrotaea (Hydrotaea) armipes (Fallén) are examined via scanning electron microscopy in order to highlight the importance of antennal sensilla as a source of morphological characters for taxonomy and phylogeny of Hydrotaea. Antennal scape and pedicel have only one type of sensilla, the sharp-tipped chaetic sensilla, whereas antennal funiculus possesses several types of sensilla, including trichoid sensilla, two subtypes of basiconic sensilla, coeloconic sensilla and clavate sensilla. These results are compared with previously published studies on other fly species, especially on H. (H.) irritans (Fallén) and H. (Ophyra) chalcogaster (Wiedemann), and there are possible uniquely derived characters or diagnostic characters examined on antennal pedicel and antennal fu- niculus, which suggests either affinities and divergence between species at subgenus level. -

Distribution of Oscinellinae (Diptera: Chloropidae) in the Danish Landscape Lise Brunberg Nielsen
Distribution of Oscinellinae (Diptera: Chloropidae) in the Danish landscape Lise Brunberg Nielsen Nielsen, Lise Brunberg: Distribution of Oscinellinae (Diptera: Chloropidae) in the Danish Landscape. Ent. Meddr 82: 39-62, Copenhagen, Denmark, 2014. ISSN 0013-8851 Abstract About 29,700 Oscinellinae were collected by means of sweep net, water traps and pitfalls in a variety of uncultivated habitats in Denmark mainly in Jutland. So far 75 species belonging to 21 genera are re corded from Denmark. Eleven species are new to the Danish fauna. Morphological details of Aphanotrigonum brachypterum, A. hungaricum, A. nigripes, Conioscinella gallarum, lncertella albipalpis, I. nigrifrons, I. kerteszi, I. scotica and Oscinella angustipennis are presented. The distribu tion of Oscinellinae in the Danish landscape is discussed. In Denmark, farmland dominates, so the two most abundant Oscinellarspecies of ara ble land, Oscinella frit and 0. vastator, are also predominant in most nat ural habitats. Small and larger uncultivated areas, however, making up only 25 % of the Danish landscape, contain a rich fauna of Oscinel lines. The advantage of different sampling methods combined is demonstrated. Sammendrag Fordelingen af fritf1uer (Diptera: Chloropidae) i det danske landskab. De fa millimeter lange, sorte eller sort-gule fritf1uer (Chloropidae) er nogle af de mest almindelige fluer pa gr<esarealer i Danmark. Et start materiale indsamlet med ketcher, i fangbakker og nedgravede fangglas pa forskellige udyrkede gr<esarealer er artsbestemt. Hovedparten af materialet, ea. 29.700 individer tilh0rer underfamilen Oscinellinae, der i Danmark omfatter 21 sl<egter og 75 arter. Elleve arter er nye for den danske fauna. Alle arter er beskrevet i Nartshuk & Andersson (2013), men supplerende morfologiske detaljer er her tilf0jet for 9 af dem: Aphanotrigonum brachypterum, A. -
