Larvae feed on fruit flesh and burrow into the seed, producing large amounts of frass and causing the fruits to drop from the tree prematurely. Larval damage renders the fruits unfit for commercial sale, leading to significant economic losses. The avocado seed moth has only been recorded as feeding on members of the Lauraceae family, with Persea americana (avocado) as the major host and other secondary hosts: P. schiedeana (coyo), wild Persea spp., and Beilschmedia spp. California accounts for the majority of avocado production in the U.S., followed by Florida and Hawaii. Stenoma catenifer is a small moth with few distinguishing features Fig. 1. Dorsal (top) and ventral (bottom) as an adult.

  • The Beetle Fauna of Dominica, Lesser Antilles (Insecta: Coleoptera): Diversity and Distribution
    INSECTA MUNDI, Vol. 20, No. 3-4, September-December, 2006 165 The beetle fauna of Dominica, Lesser Antilles (Insecta: Coleoptera): Diversity and distribution Stewart B. Peck Department of Biology, Carleton University, 1125 Colonel By Drive, Ottawa, Ontario K1S 5B6, Canada stewart_peck@carleton. ca Abstract. The beetle fauna of the island of Dominica is summarized. It is presently known to contain 269 genera, and 361 species (in 42 families), of which 347 are named at a species level. Of these, 62 species are endemic to the island. The other naturally occurring species number 262, and another 23 species are of such wide distribution that they have probably been accidentally introduced and distributed, at least in part, by human activities. Undoubtedly, the actual numbers of species on Dominica are many times higher than now reported. This highlights the poor level of knowledge of the beetles of Dominica and the Lesser Antilles in general. Of the species known to occur elsewhere, the largest numbers are shared with neighboring Guadeloupe (201), and then with South America (126), Puerto Rico (113), Cuba (107), and Mexico-Central America (108). The Antillean island chain probably represents the main avenue of natural overwater dispersal via intermediate stepping-stone islands. The distributional patterns of the species shared with Dominica and elsewhere in the Caribbean suggest stages in a dynamic taxon cycle of species origin, range expansion, distribution contraction, and re-speciation.

JROESCHNE,RD SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 407 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

  • Crop Profile for Avocados in Florida
    Crop Profile for Avocados in Florida Prepared: August, 2008 Production Facts • As of 2002, the Florida avocado industry consisted of about 6,600 bearing acres, 737 growers, and 35 registered handlers/shippers. The majority of avocados (80 percent) produced in Florida are sold outside the state. Permits must be obtained for anyone wishing to sell more that 55 pounds of avocados per day. Consequently, most are sold to packinghouses from the farm (1). • In 2004-2005, Florida produced an estimated 28,000 tons of avocados. The value of the 2004-2005 crop was approximately $14.5 million or $0.26 per pound (1). • In 2004-2005, Florida was second behind California in avocado production nationally. Florida accounted for 9 percent of the production nationally, but only accounted for 5 percent of the value, owing to the fact that Florida avocados sell for less than the price (on a weight basis) garnered by California avocados (1). • Three “races” of avocado are recognized: West Indian, Guatemalan, and Mexican. These differ in blooming/maturity season, development period, fruit size, skin texture/color, oil content, and cold hardiness. West Indian and West Indian- Guatemalan hybrid cultivars predominate in Florida (2). • Avocado may be self- or cross-pollinating, and they are separated into A and B varieties based on reproductive functionality (2). Production Region Avocado (Persea americana) is grown exclusively in south Florida. Over 99 percent of Florida-grown avocado is produced in Miami-Dade County. Of the 737 farms reported in 2002, 88 percent were less than 15 acres, accounting for about a third of production, while those 50 acres and above (5 percent) accounted for approximately half of the production.
