  • The Influence of Prairie Restoration on Hemiptera
    CAN THE ONE TRUE BUG BE THE ONE TRUE ANSWER? THE INFLUENCE OF PRAIRIE RESTORATION ON HEMIPTERA COMPOSITION Thesis Submitted to The College of Arts and Sciences of the UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Master of Science in Biology By Stephanie Kay Gunter, B.A. Dayton, Ohio August 2021 CAN THE ONE TRUE BUG BE THE ONE TRUE ANSWER? THE INFLUENCE OF PRAIRIE RESTORATION ON HEMIPTERA COMPOSITION Name: Gunter, Stephanie Kay APPROVED BY: Chelse M. Prather, Ph.D. Faculty Advisor Associate Professor Department of Biology Ryan W. McEwan, Ph.D. Committee Member Associate Professor Department of Biology Mark G. Nielsen Ph.D. Committee Member Associate Professor Department of Biology ii © Copyright by Stephanie Kay Gunter All rights reserved 2021 iii ABSTRACT CAN THE ONE TRUE BUG BE THE ONE TRUE ANSWER? THE INFLUENCE OF PRAIRIE RESTORATION ON HEMIPTERA COMPOSITION Name: Gunter, Stephanie Kay University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. Chelse M. Prather Ohio historically hosted a patchwork of tallgrass prairies, which provided habitat for native species and prevented erosion. As these vulnerable habitats have declined in the last 200 years due to increased human land use, restorations of these ecosystems have increased, and it is important to evaluate their success. The Hemiptera (true bugs) are an abundant and varied order of insects including leafhoppers, aphids, cicadas, stink bugs, and more. They play important roles in grassland ecosystems, feeding on plant sap and providing prey to predators. Hemipteran abundance and composition can respond to grassland restorations, age of restoration, and size and isolation of habitat.

  • The Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Four Hylicinae (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae): Structural Features and Phylogenetic Implications
    insects Article The Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Four Hylicinae (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae): Structural Features and Phylogenetic Implications Jiu Tang y , Weijian Huang y and Yalin Zhang * Key Laboratory of Plant Protection Resources and Pest Management, Ministry of Education, Entomological Museum, College of Plant Protection, Northwest A&F University, Yangling 712100, China; [email protected] (J.T.); [email protected] (W.H.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-029-87092190 These two authors contributed equally in this study. y Received: 19 November 2020; Accepted: 4 December 2020; Published: 7 December 2020 Simple Summary: Hylicinae, containing 43 described species in 13 genera of two tribes, is one of the most morphologically unique subfamilies of Cicadellidae. Phylogenetic studies on this subfamily were mainly based on morphological characters or several gene fragments and just involved single or two taxa. No mitochondrial genome was reported in Hylicinae before. Therefore, we sequenced and analyzed four complete mtgenomes of Hylicinae (Nacolus tuberculatus, Hylica paradoxa, Balala fujiana, and Kalasha nativa) for the first time to reveal mtgenome characterizations and reconstruct phylogenetic relationships of this group. The comparative analyses showed the mtgenome characterizations of Hylicinae are similar to members of Membracoidea. In phylogenetic results, Hylicinae was recovered as a monophyletic group in Cicadellidae and formed to the sister group of Coelidiinae + Iassinae. These results provide the comprehensive framework and worthy information toward the future researches of this subfamily. Abstract: To reveal mtgenome characterizations and reconstruct phylogenetic relationships of Hylicinae, the complete mtgenomes of four hylicine species, including Nacolus tuberculatus, Hylica paradoxa, Balala fujiana, and Kalasha nativa, were sequenced and comparatively analyzed for the first time.

Das zur Untersuchung herangezogene Material stammt aus den Sammlungen des Zoologischen Instituts und Zoologischen Museums Hamburg, der California Academy of Science, San Francisco, The American Museum of Natural History, New York, und dem Moravske Museum Brno. Als F owler 1894 die Gattung Tylopelta aufstellte, charakterisierte er sie wie folgt: „Genus Tropidoscytae (Tropidoscyta S tal , 1869, ist jetzt Sy­ nonym für Erechtia W alker , 1858 — Anmk. d. Verf.) affine, sed pronoto maxime inaequali et gibbero areisque tegminum (discoidalibus tribus, api- calibus quique) minus oblongis“, und er fügte hinzu: „Allied to Tropi­ doscyta, but distinguished by the extremly uneven outline of the prono- tum, which is level or almost level in the last-mentioned genus, but in the present genus is deeply and broadly excised in the middle and again before the apex; besides the central and two side carinae there is only one short and broad carina above the eyes; the tegmina have the areas less oblong.“ Diese Charakterisierung bezog sich auf eine einzige Art und zwar auf Tropidoscyta gibbera S tal (Generotypus).

BENNETT2 1University of Florida, Tropical Research and Education Center, 18905 S.W. 280th Street, Homestead, FL 33031 2University of Florida, Department of Entomology and Nematology, 970 Hull Road, Gainesville, FL 32611 ABSTRACT Two hundred and ninety-six species of arthropods are associated with Annona spp. The genus Bephratelloides (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) and the species Cerconota anonella (Sepp) (Lepidoptera: Oecophoridae) are the most serious pests of Annona spp. Host plant and distribution are given for each pest species. Key Words: Annona, arthropods, Insecta. RESUMEN Doscientas noventa y seis especies de arthrópodos están asociadas con Annona spp. en el Neotrópico. De las especies mencionadas, el género Bephratelloides (Hyme- noptera: Eurytomidae) y la especie Cerconota anonella (Sepp) (Lepidoptera: Oecopho- ridae) sobresalen como las plagas mas importantes de Annona spp. Se mencionan las plantas hospederas y la distribución de cada especie. The genus Annona is confined almost entirely to tropical and subtropical America and the Caribbean region (Safford 1914). Edible species include Annona muricata L. (soursop), A. squamosa L. (sugar apple), A. cherimola Mill. (cherimoya), and A. retic- ulata L. (custard apple). Each geographical region has its own distinctive pest fauna, composed of indigenous and introduced species (Bennett & Alam 1985, Brathwaite et al. 1986, Brunner et al. 1975, D’Araujo et al. 1968, Medina-Gaud et al. 1989, Peña et al. 1984, Posada 1989, Venturi 1966). These reports place emphasis on the broader as- pects of pest species. Some recent regional reviews of the status of important pests and their control have been published in Puerto Rico, U.S.A., Colombia, Venezuela, the Caribbean Region and Chile (Medina-Gaud et al.

  • Ant-Dependent Oviposition in the Membracid Publilia Concava
    Ecological Entomology (2002) 27, 247±250 SHORT COMMUNICATION Ant-dependent oviposition in the membracid Publilia concava MANUEL A.

Introduction that females abandoning broods may subsequently initiate new broods on different host plants (Bristow, 1983; Olmstead Ants enhance the survivorship and development of tended & Wood, 1990). No studies have examined the influence of homopterans by protecting them from predators and facil- ants on the probability that oviposition will occur on a itating feeding. In return, ants harvest the sugary excretions given host plant. To address this, ant-dependent oviposition (honeydew) of these homopterans (reviewed by Way, 1954; was considered for the interaction between the treehopper Buckley, 1987). Recently, ant±homopteran interactions have Publilia concava Say and ants in the genus Formica Linne by become a model system for studies that consider the under- comparing the frequency of oviposition for plants with lying causes of variation in the outcome of mutualism (i.e. access to ants relative to plants with ants excluded. conditionality; Cushman & Addicott, 1991; Bronstein, 1994).

More than 6 000 Auchenorrhyncha were collected from three citrus agro- ecosystems over a period of 3 years using yellow sticky traps and entomological nets. Cicadellidae and Membracidae were the most abundant families. Of the 43 species identified, five were predomi- nant in citrus orchards, and three were predominant in weeds surrounding citrus plants. All predom- inant species and another four non-predominant species tested positive for X. fastidiosa in PCR and real-time PCR assays. In a transmission assay, Dechacona missionum (Berg), Tapajosa rubromarginata (Signoret), and Cyphonia clavigera (Fabricius) transmitted X.
