Corythucha Arcuata
Rapid Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) for: Corythucha arcuata November 2018 Summary and conclusions of the rapid PRA This rapid PRA is an update of one produced in 2007 and shows that the oak lace bug has the potential to add strain to trees and ecosystems which are already under threat from other pests and environmental factors. This pest has been present in Europe for some time, but in recent years its distribution has either expanded, or its population levels have increased so there is greater evidence of the potential effects of this pest, though still many uncertainties. The ratings for establishment potential and economic impact remain unchanged, however, more evidence of the potential of this pest to move on wood and wood products has led to a raising of the risk of entry, and evidence from Europe suggests that this pest may have a greater potential environmental impact than previously rated. Risk of entry Although oak trees are the preferred host, there are a number of other tree species that can be potential hosts, and therefore entry has been assessed accordingly. Entry on plants for planting has been assessed as moderately likely with medium confidence. The oak lace bug is most likely to be associated with plants for planting when overwintering under loose bark scales and in crevices. Most plants imported into the UK are likely to be young trees, with few bark crevices. Larger trees do represent a significant 1 risk, as it would be difficult to determine if they were pest free, however the numbers are likely to be fewer. -

Dean Papers from the Department of Forest Entomology Published Quarterly by the University Syracuse, New York Entered at the Postofflce at Syracuse as second-class mall matter "^^ \« / 'pi AN ECOLOGICAL STUDY OF THE HEMIPTERA OF THR CRANBERRY LAKE REGION, NEW YORK By Herbert Osborn and Carl J. Drake For the purpose of this study it is proposed to use an ecological grouping based on the primitive foi'est conditions or forest cover of the region with particular recognition of the modification caused by the lumbering or cutting of the large conifers and part of the hardwoods, and the subsequent burning of certain cut-over tracts. These factors have operated to produce a very different combina- tion of organisms, in part because of the different plant associa- tions which have formed a succession for the forest cover, buc largely owing to the evident killing out of certain members of the original fauna. The latter is probably due to the disappearance of the food plants concerned or in some cases no doubt to the actual elimination of the species in certain areas occasioned by the destruction of the vegetation and duff' through fire. While the boundaries of the groups are not in all cases well defined, and as each may carry a varied flora aside from the domi- nant plant species, there is usually a rather definite limit for each. -
Key to Genera of Tingidae in Florida
Insect Classification Spring 2003 Amanda Bisson, Sarah Clark, Matt Lehnert, and Rick Stein Key to TINGIDAE of Florida Lace Bugs Tingidae is a rather large family in the order Heteroptera containing approximately 250 genera and 2000 species worldwide. All are phytophagous (feeding on plants) and are host specific. In fact, despite the detailed key provided here, one of the most important pieces of information necessary for tingid identification is the name of the host plant. Thirty-nine species have been reported in Florida; however, only seven of those are commonly encountered. The most common species that occur in Florida include the azalea lace bug (Stephanitis pyrioides), the hawthorn lace bug (Corythucha cydoniae), the lantana lace bug (Teleonemia scrupulosa) and the sycamore lace bug (Corythucha ciliata). Other important species include the avocado lace bug (Pseudacysta perseae), the fringetree lace bug (Leptoypha mutica), and the oak lace bug (Corythucha floridana). Physical identification of tingids is done primarily through examination of the head, pronotum and hemelytra. Adult lace bugs get their name from the lace-like appearance of their dorsum. This is created by a reticulate network of ridges on the pronotum and hemelytra that divides the area into a series of cells of variable size and shape. Many tingids also bear a strongly developed bucculae. These are ventral flanges on either side of the head that border the rostrum. Other common characteristics of tingids include two-segmented tarsi and the absence of ocelli. Their antennae are four-segmented, with segments I and II short and thick and segment III usually much longer and more slender. -

Barbara van Asch - [email protected] ABSTRACT Olive lace bugs are small phytophagous Hemipteran insects known to cause agricultural losses in olive production in South Africa. Plerochila australis (Distant, 1904) has been reported as the species responsible for damage to olive trees; however, the diversity of olive lace bug species in the region has lacked attention. Adult olive lace bugs were collected incidentally from wild and cultivated olive trees in the Western Cape Province, and identified as P. australis and Neoplerochila paliatseasi (Rodrigues, 1981). -

On Some North American Tingidae (Hemip.)
ON SOME NORTH AMERICAN TINGIDJE (HEMIP.)* CARL J. DRAKE. During the past three years the writer has been collecting data and preparing to monograph the American species of Tingidae occurring north of Mexico. Through the kindness of numerous workers many specimens have been studied from various parts of the United States. As this paper will not be completed for several months, it seems desirable to publish the following notes and descriptions of new species. Corythucha montivaga, new species. Hood moderately large, slightly constricted near the middle, the height equal to about three-fifths of its length, slightly longer than the median carina and a little more than twice as high. Median carina with large, long (mostly rectangular) areolae, nearly straight in the female but slightly arched in the male; lateral carinae moderately long, arched near the middle and the areolas becoming smaller towards both the anterior and posterior ends. Paranota with the reticulations slightly smaller than those of the globose portion of the hood, the anterior margins beset with a few spines. Lateral margins of paranota and elytra unarmed. Elytra broad, the lateral margins narrowed and rounded posteriorly; costal area triseriate. Tumid elevations narrow, moderately high and pointed. The elytra (taken together) are subequal in width (near base) and length, the entire insect being broadly ovate in outline. General color yellowish brown with fuscous markings. Greater portion of hood, part of paranota and spot on median carina fuscous. Elytra with a band across the base and apex fuscous; both bands .con- tain partly hyaline areolae and the apical band extends along the apex of the elytra. -

STATION 1 (Welcome) WELCOME TO THE CBEC TINY THINGS TOUR (STATION 1) This tour is designed to acquaint CBEC visitors with the amazingly diverse array of organisms here that are not typically noticed, mainly because they’re too small to be seen without either very careful observation or the aid of a magnifier (either a handheld device or a microscope). The tour will discuss representatives of the six kingdoms of living things (Bacteria, Archaea, Fungi, Plants, Protists, and Animals), as well as viruses. In addition to brief discussions of the particular organisms themselves, we’ll consider the role that these organisms play in their immediate environment, their effect on the larger biosphere, and their ability to teach us about the past and the future. Taking the Tour: To take the tour, visitors may use the Tiny Things Tour map, where the 14 stations are indicated with red numbers. The map should be used in conjunction with the printable list of stations. The list has the GPS coordinates for each station, along with QR codes that provide links to the web pages that describe each station. The GPS coordinates, as well as a simple description of each location are included on each station’s web page. If visitors haven’t brought along a mobile device (to view the web pages), they can print a copy of the tour pages by clicking this link. A guided version of the Tiny Things Tour is scheduled on a regular basis. Check the CBEC schedule for upcoming guided tours. Each web page includes a photo of the representative organism, it’s common name and scientific name, a description of the station location (including its GPS location), and a description of the organism and its environment. -

Invasion by the Oak Lace Bug, Corythucha Arcuata (Say) (Heteroptera: Tingidae), in Turkey
Turk J Zool 33 (2009) 263-268 © TÜBİTAK Research Article doi:10.3906/zoo-0806-13 Invasion by the oak lace bug, Corythucha arcuata (Say) (Heteroptera: Tingidae), in Turkey Serap MUTUN1,*, Zeycan CEYHAN2, Can SÖZEN1 1Department of Biology, Faculty of Science and Arts, Abant İzzet Baysal University 14280 Bolu - TURKEY 2Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Ankara University, 06100 Beşevler, Ankara - TURKEY Received: 25.06.2008 Abstract: Corythucha arcuata (Heteroptera: Tingidae) is an important pest species that causes severe damage to oak species by sucking up the cellular sap material and leaving its eggs on the underside of leaves. Considered a Nearctic species with a wide distribution, especially in the United States and southern Canada, it has recently been reported beyond the North American continent, specifically in Italy, Switzerland, and Turkey. Since its first report from Bolu, in 2003, the oak lace bug has rapidly dispersed throughout Turkey—to Düzce, Zonguldak, Sakarya, Kocaeli, Eskişehir, Ankara, Çankırı, and Bilecik provinces. The present study determined that the oak lace bug has infected 28,000 km2 of Turkey. Key words: Corythucha arcuata, invasive species, oak lace bug, pest species, Quercus, Tingidae Türkiye’de, Corythucha arcuata (Say) (Heteroptera: Tingidae), meşe böceklerinin istilası Özet: Corythucha arcuata (Heteroptera: Tingidae) özellikle meşe türlerinin hücre içi sıvısını emerek ve yumurtalarını yaprakların alt yüzeylerine bırakarak bitkiye zarar veren önemli bir pest türüdür. Önceleri Nearktik bir tür olarak Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ile Kanada’nın güneyinde dağılım gösteren bu tür Amerika kıtası dışından İtalya, İsviçre ve Türkiye’den kaydedilmiştir. Bolu’dan 2003 yılında ilk defa rapor edilmesinden bu yana C. arcuata’nın Düzce, Zonguldak, Sakarya, Kocaeli, Eskişehir, Ankara, Çankırı ve Bilecik’e de yayıldığı gözlenmiştir.
