Tecojote, cóccido, escama blanda, Toumeyella crataegi. Introduction In Mexico, the genus Crataegus, commonly known as hawthorns, contains 15 species distributed in the northern and central regions (Nuñez Colin et al. 2012). Crataegus mexicana Moc. and Sessé ex DC. (Rosaceae), known locally in Mexico as “tecojote”, is also cultivated in Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Peru, South Africa and the USA (Arizona, California) (Nuñez Colin et al. 2012). Tejocote is the common name for Crataegus trees in Mexico and refers to the Nahuatl name “te-xocotl” meaning stone and sour fruit (Nieto-Ángel et al. 1996). Crataegus species have been used as rootstock for various genera in the Rosaceae, such as Cydonia, Malus, Mespilus and Pyrus (Borys and Leszczyñska-Borys 2004). Tecojote fruits are rich in carotene, vitamin C, calcium, iron, phosphorus, and also have a high content of pectin (Vivar-Vera et al. 2007). Pectins have several uses in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries, as well in the production of edible coatings and films for packing materials (Aldana- Villarruel et al. 2011). Most species of the soft scale genus Toumeyella Cockerell (Hemiptera: Coccidae) are oligophagous, usually being found on one or very few plant families. According to Kondo and Pellizzari (2011), the Toumeyella species in Mexico have been recorded on Fabaceae (T. erythrinae Kondo and Williams, T. mirabilis (Cockerell) and T. fontanai Kondo and Pellizzari), Pinaceae (T. parvicornis (Cockerell)) and Cactaceae (T. martinezae Kondo & González), with the host plant of T. sallei (Signoret) being unknown. 2 • INSECTA MUNDI 0634, May 2018 KONDO AND GONZÁLEZ Toumeyella is endemic to the New World, with the highest diversity reported from North America [the USA (9 spp.) and Mexico (6 spp.)] (Kondo and Pellizzari 2011; Kondo 2013; Kondo and González 2014). Recently, the Brazilian species T. ferum (Hempel) was transferred to Neotoumeyella Kondo and Williams by Kondo (2018) based on the presence of ventral tubular ducts found on mid areas of the abdomen and the area lateral to both spiracular pore bands. Since 2003, three new Toumeyella species have been described from Mexico, namely T. erythrinae Kondo and Williams, 2003a, T. fontanai Kondo and Pellizzari, 2011, and T. martinezae Kondo and González, 2014. In this paper we describe and illustrate a new species of soft scale

In London I benefited from the kind and attentive help of Dr. Nanneke Redclift, my thesis supervisor. She not only advice me before and after returning from the field, but provided me with a wonderful space of intellectual liberty. I thank her thorough reading of countless versions of the thesis and for all the support received during my stay at UCL. I would also like to express my gratitude to my friends and fellow PhD students at the Department of Anthropology for their comments, intellectual encouragement and especially, for sharing the joys and miseries of writing a doctoral thesis.

Pollack Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology University of Washington Abstract Documenting and Contextualizing Pjiekakjoo Knowledge through a Collaborative Research Project Elda Miriam Aldasoro Maya Chair of the Supervisory Committee Emeritus Professor Eugene Hunn University of Washington The Pjiekakjoo (Tlahuica) people and their culture have managed to adapt to the globalized world. They have developed a deep knowledge-practice-belief system (Traditional Environmental Knowledge (TEK) or Contemporary Indigenous Knowledges (CIK)) that is part of the biocultural diversity of the region in which they live. This dissertation describes the economic, social and political context of the Pjiekakjoo, to contextualize the Pjiekakjoo CIK, including information on their land tenure struggles, their fight against illegal logging and the policies governing the Zempoala Lagoons National Park that is part of their territory. The collaborative research on which this dissertation draws, based on a dialogue of knowledges and heavily influenced by the ideas of Paolo Freire, fully recognized Indigenous people as subjects. Through participant observation, interviews and workshops we documented the names, uses, myth, beliefs and stories that the Pjiekakjoo people give to an extensive variety of organisms: mushrooms, invertebrates, vertebrates and the most important useful plants. Basic knowledge about the milpa and corn was also documented. Through the analysis of the information gathered it is clear that the relation of the Pjiekakjoo with other living beings is far from solely utilitarian in nature.

  • Assessments of Rhagoletis Pomonella (Diptera: Tephritidae) Infestation Of
    J. ENTOMOL. SOC. BRIT. COLUMBIA 116, DECEMBER 2019 !40 Assessments of Rhagoletis pomonella (Diptera: Tephritidae) infestation of temperate, tropical, and subtropical fruit in the field and laboratory in Washington State, U.S. W. L. Y E E1 AND R. B. G O U G H N O U R2 ABSTRACT To understand the likelihood of any risk of apple maggot, Rhagoletis pomonella (Walsh) (Diptera: Tephritidae), to domestic and foreign fruit export markets, knowledge of its host plant use is needed. Here, assessments of R. pomonella infestation of temperate, tropical, and subtropical fruit were made in the field and laboratory in Washington State, U.S. In field surveys in 2010– 2017 in central Washington, 6.7% of Crataegus douglasii and 6.1% of feral Malus domestica trees (both temperate plants) in fly-managed (insecticide- treated) sites were infested by larvae. In unmanaged sites, 54.1% of C. douglasii and 16.3% of feral M. domestica tree samples were infested. In field surveys of 36 types of temperate fruit in 2015–2018 in southwestern Washington, new host records for R. pomonella were one species and three hybrids of Crataegus, as well as Prunus domestica subsp. syriaca – all of which produced adult flies. In addition, Prunus avium was a new host record for Washington State, producing one adult fly. Prunus armeniaca x Prunus salicina and Vitis vinifera exposed to flies in the laboratory produced adult flies. Of 37 types of tropical and subtropical fruit hung in fly-infested M. domestica trees in southwestern Washington, only Mangifera indica produced puparia. Out of nine tropical and subtropical fruit types in laboratory tests, Musa acuminata x balbisiana produced puparia but no adult flies.

PÉREZ-ORTEGA, Antonio H. MÉNDEZ-SANTIAGO, Raúl NIETO-ANGEL, Leszek S.

There is a great morphological diversity among the tejocote clones growing in Germplasm Bank of the Autonomic University of Chapingo, Mexico. The common character of all hawthorns in this bank is that the inflorescence axis dies after shedding the reproductive parts (flowers or fruits) but remains on the tree, and the growth continues from the bud situated below the dead part. The growth and ramification habit were described as long shoots showing marked apical dominance and as the complex of shoots showing week apical dominance. The non-pruned trees of tejocote clones used as fruit trees form strong natural crown. The architecture of it is similar to the “Troll’s model” of Hallé and Oldeman (1970). Metamor- phosis and reiteration are relatively frequent. The inflorescence structure was described, as well as the types of thorns in clones, which have thorns. Tejocote hawthorn may probably be an interesting fruit tree for countries with warm climate and a long dry period. It is also well adapted to shallow calcareous soils. Key words: edible hawthorns.
