  • Temporal Lags and Overlap in the Diversification of Weevils and Flowering Plants
    Temporal lags and overlap in the diversification of weevils and flowering plants Duane D. McKennaa,1, Andrea S. Sequeirab, Adriana E. Marvaldic, and Brian D. Farrella aDepartment of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138; bDepartment of Biological Sciences, Wellesley College, Wellesley, MA 02481; and cInstituto Argentino de Investigaciones de Zonas Aridas, Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Te´cnicas, C.C. 507, 5500 Mendoza, Argentina Edited by May R. Berenbaum, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL, and approved March 3, 2009 (received for review October 22, 2008) The extraordinary diversity of herbivorous beetles is usually at- tributed to coevolution with angiosperms. However, the degree and nature of contemporaneity in beetle and angiosperm diversi- fication remain unclear. Here we present a large-scale molecular phylogeny for weevils (herbivorous beetles in the superfamily Curculionoidea), one of the most diverse lineages of insects, based on Ϸ8 kilobases of DNA sequence data from a worldwide sample including all families and subfamilies. Estimated divergence times derived from the combined molecular and fossil data indicate diversification into most families occurred on gymnosperms in the Jurassic, beginning Ϸ166 Ma. Subsequent colonization of early crown-group angiosperms occurred during the Early Cretaceous, but this alone evidently did not lead to an immediate and ma- jor diversification event in weevils. Comparative trends in weevil diversification and angiosperm dominance reveal that massive EVOLUTION diversification began in the mid-Cretaceous (ca. 112.0 to 93.5 Ma), when angiosperms first rose to widespread floristic dominance. These and other evidence suggest a deep and complex history of coevolution between weevils and angiosperms, including codiver- sification, resource tracking, and sequential evolution.

We analyzed up to 8 kb of DNA sequence data for each gene was adjusted ‘‘by eye’’ in the program MacClade from a worldwide sample of 135 weevil genera representing all 4.06 (5). Regions of ambiguous alignment in 16S, 18S, and 28S, 7 weevil families, all 26 weevil subfamilies, and 97 genera and introns in EF 1-␣ and AK were removed. The individual representing most major tribes in the extraordinarily diverse alignments for each gene were then concatenated in MacClade, family Curculionidae (supporting information (SI) Table S1 and and the resulting aligned matrix (6 genes, Ϸ8 kb) used in Table S3).

    Morphological and Molecular Characterisation of Australian Pinhole Borers (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Platypodinae) James Ronald Munro Bickerstaff BSc, GradDipConBio Supervisors: A/Prof. Markus Riegler and Dr. Shannon Smith Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Research April 10th 2017 Acknowledgements Taxonomic and systematic work is intricate, tiresome, and sometimes mind bending. One really needs a driving passion for the species that one is working on, otherwise, the cons outweigh the benefits of such elaborate work. If it were not for Shannon Smith I would never have gotten to know this fascinating group of insects exists. Not only this, you’ve been a fantastic supervisor. Thank you for your patience, for putting up with me constantly bursting into your office with countless questions, and showing me the ropes of molecular research. I look forward to continuing research with you on these enigmatic little beasties. And to Markus Riegler, thank you for your guidance, support, and tireless-ness. Your supervision and insights made this project what it is. Not only this, but your determination, energy, and belief in this project really helped give me the drive to continue on, especially through the rocky patches throughout the molecular lab work. Your advice you gave me during our meetings were amazingly helpful, and it was always entertaining when our meetings turned to discussions on global events and politics. I would like to also thank Jennifer Morrow; without your wisdom the molecular work in this project would not have happened. Your advice and help was greatly appreciated. To Robert Mueller, a PhD student in our little Platypodinae research group.

The number of described weevils species is calcu- lated to be about 62 000 and the likely total number of existing species 220 000, indicating that we have described just over a quarter of the diversity of this important group of beetles and that, at current rates of discovery and description, it will take another 650 years or so to describe the rest.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Host records on the weevil family Apionidae in New Caledonia are summarised, based on field observations in 2004–2010, and supplemented with dates of collecting freshly emerged adult specimens obtained from museum collec- tions worldwide. At the genus level, the following generalised host associations of the Apionidae have been documented: Rhadinocyba (only the Rh. singularis-species group), Megatracheloides and Himantapion with Hibbertia (Dilleniaceae); Discelapion, Thyridapion and Pterapion (s. str.) with Pycnandra, Planchonella, and Beccariella (Sapotaceae); Apterap- ion with Codia (Cunoniaceae); Hellerenius and Caledonapion with Hedycarya (Monimiaceae); Anapotapion with Piper and Macropiper (Piperaceae), Sterculapion with Commersonia (Malvaceae). Various species of Tetrapion were collected either from Codia (Cunoniaceae) or Guioa, Cupaniopsis ( Sapindaceae). Recorded associations of Diapion with Ficus (Moraceae), and Zimmius with Cryptocarya (Lauraceae) still need confirmation. Two generations per season are likely in members of at least Rhadinocyba, Megatracheloides, and Pterapion, judging from the extended period of appearance of teneral specimens. The subgenus Apterapion Wanat, 2001 of Pterapion Faust, 1889 is raised to genus rank, with type- species Apterapion hamiota (Wanat, 2001).
