Thomas USDA-ARSSubtropical AgriCUlture Research Laboratory 2301 S International Boulevard Weslaco, I exas 78596 Abstract The subfamily Asopinae ofthe stinkbug family Pentatomidae is revised for the Old World with a key to the genera and a review ofthe species with nomenclatural changes. The genus Tahitoc01is is removed from the Asopinae and placedtentativelywith the Podopinae. The genus Breddiniellais reducedto a synonym ofCazira. The genus Indtatus is reduced to a synonym oU,,{artinina. The genus Platynopus is divided into three genera by the restriction of Platynopus to include only five Indo- Pacific species; the elevation of the subgenus A/entre ~ieFiellustethe leveleffullgenus, andthe el'eetieneranewgenus Platynepiellusfol' the Afl'iean speeies formerly placedin Platynopus. AnewgenusAustralojallaiserectedfor Jalla versicolor. ThegeneraCantheconidea and &oontheeona aPe defined and their Pespecti'le species aligned in oonoordance with theil' definitiens. Fourteen species are thus transferred from Cantheconidea to Eocanthecona creating the following new combinations' Eooonth€Conajapanicola, Kooonthewna binotata, Eooonthecona latipes, &canthecona mitis, Eocanthecona neotibialis, Eocanthecona ornatula, Eocanthecona parva, Eocanthecona plebeja, Eocanthecona robusta, Eacanthecona ru!escens, Eacanthecona shikoklumsis, Eacanthecona thomsoni, Eacanthewna tibialis, and Eocanthecona vollenhoveni.

    © Entomologica Fennica. 16 December 2005 Picromerus bidens (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) as predator of the Checkerspot Euphydryas aurinia (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) Martin Konvicka, Vladimir Hula & Zdenek Fric Konvicka, M., Hula, V.& Fric, Z. 2005: Picromerus bidens (Heteroptera: Penta- tomidae) as predator of the Checkerspot Euphydryas aurinia (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae). — Entomol. Fennica 16: 233–236. The predatory bug Picromerus bidens is reported as a regular predator of the Marsh Fritillary Euphydryas aurinia from the region of western Bohemia, Czech Republic. Adult bugs attack pre-diapause larvae, either exposed or hidden in pro- tective silken webs, and exhibit efficient behaviour, including returning to previ- ously attacked webs. We observed predation in six out of 28 and eleven out of 21 local populations in 2003 and 2004, respectively. In addition, we observed two attacks by nymphs on handicapped adult butterflies. Predation of Melitaeinae by Heteroptera seems to be a widespread phenomenon, and P. bidens can act as a substantial mortality factor in small colonies of E. aurinia. M.

    Sherwood Forest Invertebrate Directory 2013 Complete site species list and records from the late 1800's to 2012 Trevor and Dilys Pendleton January 2013 Sherwood Forest Invertebrate Directory 2012/2013 Welcome to the third edition of the Sherwood Forest Invertebrate Directory, which again aims to collate and update all of the site's invertebrate records into a single document. Once again, we are indebted to those invertebrate recorders who continue to send in their records for inclusion, yet are frustrated that most of the conservation and management organisations running and maintaining the NNR and surrounding area, seem totally uninterested in the huge range of invertebrates Sherwood Forest is home to. We are however, extremely grateful that the Sherwood Forest Trust at least show a more forward thinking attitude and are considerably more mindful with respect to site management when dealing with species diversity. Trevor and Dilys Pendleton January 2013 The Birklands and Bilhaugh, Birklands West and Ollerton Corner SSSI's and the Sherwood Forest NNR It would have been simpler if the Sherwood Forest NNR encompassed all the sites mentioned in the various species lists. But due to a legal loophole at the time of notification, Natural England had to notify the ancient Sherwood Forest area as two separate Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) which they continue to regard as representing the whole of the Birklands and Bilhaugh (Sherwood Forest) complex. The two SSSI’s are known as Birklands and Bilhaugh (of which the NNR forms part) and Birklands West and Ollerton Corner. Birklands and Bilhaugh SSSI The Birklands and Bilhaugh SSSI is made up of the Sherwood Forest Country Park, Budby South Forest, Proteus Square and Buck Gates.

  • Electric Eel Electrophorus Electricus
    Electric Eel Electrophorus electricus Gen. Habitat Water Habitat Rivers Temperature 0-35 C Humidity Undefined Pressure High Salinity 1000-3000 ppm pH 6.0-8.0 Summary: The electric eel is a species of fish found in the basins of the Amazon and Orinoco Rivers of South America. It can produce an electric discharge on the order of 600-650 volts, which it uses for both hunting and self-defense. It is an apex predator in its South American range. Despite its name it is not an eel at all but rather a knifefish. Description: A typical electric eel has an elongated square body, a flattened head, and an overall dark grayish green color shifting to yellowish on the bottom. They have almost no scales. The mouth is square, placed right at the end of the snout. The anal fin continues down the length of the body to the tip of their tail. It can grow up to 2.5 m (about 8.2 feet) in length and 20 kg (about 44 pounds) in weight, making them the largest Gymnotiform. 1 m specimens are more common. They have a vascularized respiratory organ in their oral cavity. These fish are obligate air-breathers; rising to the surface every 10 minutes or so, the animal will gulp air before returning to the bottom. Nearly 80% of the oxygen used by the fish is taken in this way. Despite its name, the electric eel is not related to eels but is more closely related to catfish. Scientists have been able to determine through experimental information that E.

    EPPO Standards SAFE USE OF BIOLOGICAL CONTROL LIST OF BIOLOGICAL CONTROL AGENTS WIDELY USED IN THE EPPO REGION PM 6/3 English 2021 VERSION oepp eppo European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization 21 Boulevard Richard Lenoir, 75011 Paris, France APPROVAL EPPO Standards are approved by EPPO Council. The date of approval appears in each individual standard. In the terms of Article II of the IPPC, EPPO Standards are Regional Standards for the members of EPPO. REVIEW EPPO Standards are subject to periodic review and amendment. The next review date for this set of EPPO Standards is decided by the EPPO Working Party on Phytosanitary Regulations. AMENDMENT RECORD Amendments will be issued as necessary, numbered and dated. The dates of amendment appear in each individual standard (as appropriate). DISTRIBUTION EPPO Standards are distributed by the EPPO Secretariat to all EPPO member governments. Copies are available to any interested person under particular conditions upon request to the EPPO Secretariat. SCOPE The EPPO Standards on the safe use of biological control are intended to be used by NPPOs or equivalent authorities, in their capacity as bodies responsible for overseeing and, if appropriate, regulating the introduction and use of biological control agents. OUTLINE OF REQUIREMENTS NPPOs of the EPPO region generally promote the use of biological control in plant protection because, like other aspects of integrated pest management, it reduces risks to human health and the environment. Use of biological control agents may, nevertheless, present some risks, in particular for the environment if exotic agents are introduced from other continents, and for the user if agents are formulated as plant protection products.

    LILLE VILDMOSE BIOBLITZ 2020 Lille Vildmosecentret Mellemområdet Arrangeret af Lille Vildmosecentret og Vildmoseforeningen Støttet af Lille Vildmose Naturfond Bioblitz i Lille Vildmose 2020 Skrevet af Mia Yung Heine Petersen, naturformidler - Lille Vildmosecentret For anden gang blev der afholdt bioblitz i Lille Vildmose. Sidste gang var i august 2017, hvor Mellemområdet i Lille Vildmose blev afsøgt for dyr og planter. I år blev bioblitzen afholdt i weekenden 29. - 30. august, hvor omkring 30 eksperter og naturnørder fra hele landet igen skulle finde så mange dyr- og plantearter som igtmul indenfor 24 timer. Startskudet lød kl. 10.00 lørdag d. 29. august, hvor vejret forinden ikke så ud til at være med os, men da startskudet lød var der heldigvis tørvejr. Ud forsvandt alle eksperter og naturnørder. Ud for at registrere myrer, svampe, biller, fugle, sommerfugle og andet liv i Lille Vildmose. Bioblitzen var afgrænset til at foregå i Mellemområdet, som er indhegnet af et 30 km. langt hegn og er 2100 ha. stort, samt på Lille Vildmosecentrets område som er 17 ha. stort. Alle deltagerer havde frivilligt afsat en weekend for at være med til at se om artstallet fra 2017 kunne overgås. Nogle af deltagerne deltog også i 2017, men i år havde vi også nye ansigter med. Grundet et 2020 hvor Covid-19 har præget næsten hele år 2020, så var der tvivl om den planlagte bioblitz kunne afholdes. Heldigvis kunne den gennemføres og Lille Vildmosecentrets nye store og flotte Naturskole-lokale blev taget i brug, således Covid-19 retningslinierne kunne overholdes. Ligesom i 2017 var der mu- lighed for at Lille Vildmosecentrets besøgende kunne blive klogere på en bioblitz samt børnefamilierne kunne komme på en mini-bioblitz.
