  • Diversification, Selective Sweep, and Body Size in the Invasive Palearctic
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Diversifcation, selective sweep, and body size in the invasive Palearctic alfalfa weevil infected with Wolbachia Midori Tuda1,2,12*, Shun‑ichiro Iwase1,11,12, Khadim Kébé3,12, Julien Haran4,12, Jiri Skuhrovec5,12, Ehsan Sanaei6, Naomichi Tsuji7, Attila Podlussány8, Ottó Merkl8, Ahmed H. El‑Heneidy9 & Katsura Morimoto10 The alfalfa weevil Hypera postica, native to the Western Palearctic, is an invasive legume pest with two divergent mitochondrial clades in its invading regions, the Western clade and the Eastern/Egyptian clade. However, knowledge regarding the native populations is limited. The Western clade is infected with the endosymbiotic bacteria Wolbachia that cause cytoplasmic incompatibility in host weevils. Our aim was to elucidate the spatial genetic structure of this insect and the efect of Wolbachia on its population diversity. We analyzed two mitochondrial and two nuclear genes of the weevil from its native ranges. The Western clade was distributed in western/central Europe, whereas the Eastern/ Egyptian clade was distributed from the Mediterranean basin to central Asia. Intermediate mitotypes were found from the Balkans to central Asia. Most Western clade individuals in western Europe were infected with an identical Wolbachia strain. Mitochondrial genetic diversity of the infected individuals was minimal. The infected clades demonstrated a higher nonsynonymous/synonymous substitution rate ratio than the uninfected clades, suggesting a higher fxation of nonsynonymous mutations due to a selective sweep by Wolbachia. Trans‑Mediterranean and within‑European dispersal routes were supported. We suggest that the ancestral populations diversifed by geographic isolation due to glaciations and that the diversity was reduced in the west by a recent Wolbachia‑driven sweep(s).

The aim of the study was the effect of the human-caused environ- mental changes on the structure of weevil fauna (Coleoptera: Curculionoidea) as a result of the water dams construction. The research was carried out at six sites located in the area around the artifi cial Complex of Water Reservoirs Czorsztyn-Niedzica and Sromowce Wyżne in the southern Poland (Western Carpathians) in two periods: I (1992–1993), and II (1996–1997). The species composition, species richness, abundance, and species diversity indices varied signifi cantly between both periods. The serious changes were recorded for the studied fauna in a relatively short time. We assume that the general increase of the species richness and the fauna diversity profi le, as well as the popula- tion size of some stenotopic weevils may have been caused by temporary effect of the increased number of new biotopes under strong anthropogenic pressure and succession.

  • 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.

  • Provisioning Patterns and Choice of Prey in the Digger Wasp Cerceris Arenaria (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae): the Role of Prey Size

Cerceris arenaria, Hymenoptera, Crabronidae, behaviour, nest provisioning, prey, Curculionidae, hunting specialization Abstract. At a nest site in Northern Italy of females of the weevil-hunting digger wasp Cerceris arenaria L. (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae) the provisioning activity and predator-prey relationship were investigated, in particular their specialization in choice of prey. Females were active from middle of June to end of July, and from 8.00 to 19.00. The wasps made provisioning flights throughout the day, mostly in late morning and early afternoon. Individual wasps generally only hunted for 1 or 2 prey species of all those available, maybe because of their higher abundance. The size of prey, which is positively correlated with that of the female wasps, seems to be the main factor determining choice of prey. The nature of the provisioning flights seems to be related to the size of the prey, being more frequent and shorter for smaller weevils. The correlation between prey and wasp biomass is discussed in relation to the size range of the wasps. INTRODUCTION “small” (about 0.7–1.2 mm), “medium” (1.3–1.9 mm) or “large” prey (2.0–2.7 mm).

Wandering of Hypera postica in search for food was observed in L1, L2 and L3 larvae, as well as in young L4 larvae. L1 larvae also disperse in response to crowding. Wandering of L2 to young L4 instars was a response to food shortage. Wandering of late L4 larva (‘prepupa’) occurs because of searching for a place to spin the cocoon and pupate. Encounters between the larvae may result in agonistic behaviour, and some larvae may die as a consequence of fighting. This aggression increases with food limitation. Agonistic intraspecific behaviour has not been described to date in weevil’s larvae and it probably may not occur under natural conditions when there is a plenty of food and larval densities are decreased by pathogens or parasitoids. Keywords: resource competition; intraspecific aggressive behaviour of coleopteran larvae; pest; Hypera postica; Brachypera vidua; Palaearctic region Introduction Intraspecific aggressiveness (IA) is a common phenomenon among insects, may take different forms and may evolve for a variety of reasons.

  • The First Record of Greek Endemic Weevil Hypera (Boreohypera
    Turkish Journal of Zoology Turk J Zool (2017) 41: 946-950 http://journals.tubitak.gov.tr/zoology/ © TÜBİTAK Short Communication doi:10.3906/zoo-1611-66 The first record of Greek endemic weevil Hypera (Boreohypera) moczarskii (Coleoptera: Curculionoidea, Curculionidae) in Central Serbia, with elements for species redescription Snežana B. PEŠIĆ* Department of Biology and Ecology, Faculty of Science, University of Kragujevac, Kragujevac, Serbia Received: 29.11.2016 Accepted/Published Online: 12.03.2017 Final Version: 28.09.2017 Abstract: The rare weevil species Hypera (Boreohypera) moczarskii Penecke, 1936, previously recorded only in Greece, has been registered for the first time in Central Serbia. Two adult males were collected in 1993 and 1994, in two places in the area of Kragujevac (Central Serbia). These findings extend H. moczarskii’s distribution area to the north, and this rare species should no longer be considered as Greek, but rather as endemic to the Balkan Peninsula. Both specimens are males, and drawings of the aedeagus are shown for the first time. Hypera moczarskii is one of two European members of the subgenus Boreohypera Korotyaev, 1999, besides H. (B.) diversipunctata (Schrank, 1798). The distribution areas of these two species, as well as morphological and ecological data, are presented in parallel. Key words: Hypera (Boreohypera) moczarskii, rare species, Balkan Peninsula endemic weevil, Hypera (Boreohypera) diversipunctata Since the weevil fauna has an important role in material (one male and three females) had been collected different terrestrial ecosystems, especially in biodiversity (Volo in Thessaly, Greece), but he gave no information hotspots (such as the Balkan Peninsula), further research about their habitat or biology.
