The 608 types of Encyrtidae (Chalcidoidea) housed at the Museo de La Plata (Departamento Cientifico de Entomologia were examined and listed. These types belong to 100 species and 3 subspecies of Encyrtinae. They were described by the following authors: De Santis (71), Annecke (6), Noyes (5), Blanchard (4), Erdoes (3), Annecke & Mynhardt (3), Bennet (1), Brethes (1), De Santis & Fernandes (1), De Santis & Vidal (1), Compere (1), Fidalgo (1), Gahan (1), Ghesquiere (1), Hoffer (1), Kerrich (1) and Mercet (1). For each taxon com­ plete information is given about the original publication, collection data, and its current state of preservation. On the other hand 15 types were placed in a separate list because of their doubtful status. KEY WORDS. Catalogue. Entomological types. Encyrtines. Museo de la Plata Collection. • RESUMEN.

D ^browski received 18.VIII.2003 Abstract: New trophic relationships between Braconidae, Ichneumonidae, Chaleididae, Pteromalidae, Encyrtidae, Torymidae, Eulophidae (Hymenoptera) and burnets (Lepidoptera, Zygaenidae) collected in selected regions of southern Poland are considered. Introduction Over 30 species of insects from the family Zygaenidae (Lepidoptera) occur in Central Europe. The occurrence of sixteen of them was reported in Poland (D/^browski & Krzywicki , 1982; D/^browski, 1998). Most of these species are decidedly xerothermophilous, i.e. they inhabit dry, open and strongly insolated habitats. Among the species discussed in this paperZygaena (Zygaena) angelicae O chsenheimer, Z. (Agrumenia) carniolica (Scopoli) and Z (Zygaena) loti (Denis & Schiffermuller) have the greatest requirements in this respect, and they mainly live in dry, strongly insolated grasslands situated on lime and chalk subsoil. The remaining species occur in fresh and moist habitats, e. g. in forest meadows and peatbogs. Due to overgrowing of the habitats of these insects with shrubs and trees as a result of natural succession and re­ forestation, or other antropogenic activities (urbanization, land reclamation) their numbers decrease, and they become more and more rare and endangered. During many years of investigations concerning the family Zygaenidae their primary and secondary parasitoids belonging to several families of Hymenoptera were reared. The host species were as follows: Adscita (Adscita) statices (L.), Zygaena (Mesembrynus) brizae (Esper), Z (Mesembrynus) minos (Denis & Schiffermuller), Z.

  • A Synopsis of the Encyrtidae of the Hawaiian Islands with Keys to General and Species (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidae), ] 2 3
    Vol. XXII, No. 2, Sept. 1976 181 A Synopsis of the Encyrtidae of the Hawaiian Islands with Keys to General and Species (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidae), ] 2 3 John W. Beardsley, Jr. UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII HONOLULU, HAWAII This paper is an attempt to update and summarize taxonomic and other biological data on Hawaiian Encyrtidae and to provide keys for their identification. The Hymenoptera Parasitica section of the Fauna Hawaiiensis (Ashmead, 1901) listed only four species of Encyrtidae (s. str.). The Supplement to Hymenoptera (Perkins, 1913) added ten more. Most of what is known about Hawaiian encyrtids resulted from the careful studies of P.H. Timberlake (1919a, 1919b, 1920, 1922, 1924a, 1924b). Excepting a review of the non- endemic species of the subtribe Anagyrina (Beardsley, 1969), more recent published information on Hawaiian encyrtids is found largely in scattered notes which record the identity and hosts of newly discovered adventive species. The Hawaiian encyrtid fauna contains both endemic and recently adventive elements. Of the 106 species in 60 genera which are treated here, 26 species are almost certainly endemic, two additional species possibly so, and the remaining 78 species are recent adventives. The endemic Encyrtidae comprise poorly known species complexes in the genera Anagyrus Howard, Coelopencyrtus Timberlake, Hypergonatopus Timberlake and Rhopus Foerster. Hypergonatopus and the closely related, monotypic Aulonops Timberlake are considered to be endemic genera, and the endemic species of Anagyrus have been placed in an endemic subgenus, Nesoanagyrus (Beardsley, 1969). In addition there are two monotypic genera, Euchalcerinys Timberlake and Xesmatia Timberlake, which are unknown outside Hawaii and may be endemic. Numerous species of Encyrtidae have been introduced purposely into Hawaii for biological control of insect pests, particularly against scale insects and mealybugs.

  • STRIVE Report Series No
    STRIVE Report Series No. 3 Science, Technology, Research and Innovation for the Environment (STRIVE) 2007-2013 The Science, Technology, Research and Innovation for the Environment (STRIVE) programme covers the period 2007 to 2013. The Value of Parasitic The programme comprises three key measures: Sustainable Development, Cleaner Production and Hymenoptera as Indicators Environmental Technologies, and A Healthy Environment; together with two supporting measures: EPA Environmental Research Centre (ERC) and Capacity & Capability Building. The seven principal of Biological Diversity thematic areas for the programme are Climate Change; Waste, Resource Management and Chemicals; Water Quality and the Aquatic Environment; Air Quality, Atmospheric Deposition and Noise; Impacts on Biodiversity; Soils and Land-use; and Socio-economic Considerations. In addition, other emerging issues will be addressed as the need arises. The funding for the programme (approximately €100 million) comes from the Environmental Research Sub-Programme of the National Development Plan (NDP), the Inter-Departmental Committee for the Strategy for Science, Technology and Innovation (IDC-SSTI); and EPA core funding and co-funding by STRIVE economic sectors. Environmental Protection The EPA has a statutory role to co-ordinate environmental research in Ireland and is organising and Agency Programme administering the STRIVE programme on behalf of the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government. 2007-2013 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY PO Box 3000, Johnstown

  • A Preliminary Check-List of the Chalcidoidea (Hymenoptera) of the Maltese Islands
    BULLETIN OF THE ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF MALTA (2016) Vol. 8 : 47–72 DOI: 10.17387/BULLENTSOCMALTA.2016.04 A preliminary check-list of the Chalcidoidea (Hymenoptera) of the Maltese Islands Richard R. ASKEW1 & David MIFSUD2 ABSTRACT. A list of 147 species of Chalcidoidea from the Maltese Islands is presented 73 of which are here reported for the first time from this territory. They belong to 15 families as follows: Agaonidae (3); Aphelinidae (20 including 3 new records); Azotidae (1 new record); Chalcididae (3 new records); Encyrtidae (23 including 13 new records); Eulophidae (35 including 19 new records); Eupelmidae (7 including 2 new records); Eurytomidae (5 including 4 new records); Leucospidae (4); Mymaridae (2); Ormyridae (1 new record); Pteromalidae (33 including 21 new records); Signiphoridae (2); Tetracampidae (1 new record); Torymidae (7 including 5 new records). Out of the 73 new records, 55 were exclusively found in Malaise trap samples at Verdala Palace near Buskett, a semi-natural wooded area dominated by Pinus halepensis. Thirty species mentioned in the present study were reared from plant-galls, either during the present study or in former studies pertaining to Malta. Of these 8 are gall inducers and the rest are primary or secondary parasitoids of the gall inducers. This list must represent only a small proportion of the actual species richness expected to be found in the Maltese Islands since absolutely no field work was carried out in other diverse and potentially rich habitats, such as steppe, garigue, maquis, coastal habitats and valley systems, present on these islands. KEY WORDS. Chalcids, Mediterranean, Malta, new records.
