Eavesdrop- signals, predators and parasitoids have been forced to adopt ping on the sex pheromone signals emitted to attract mates other strategies. In some systems parasitoids or predators allows many predators and parasitoids to find and attack locate herbivorous prey by exploiting plant signals induced by adult insects. The sex pheromones are also useful signals for the herbivores (5-8). Thus, both the plants and the predators egg parasitoids since eggs are frequently deposited on nearby or parasitoids benefit from this interaction.

  • Gut Content Metabarcoding Unveils the Diet of a Flower‐Associated Coastal
    ECOSPHERE NATURALIST No guts, no glory: Gut content metabarcoding unveils the diet of a flower-associated coastal sage scrub predator PAUL MASONICK , MADISON HERNANDEZ, AND CHRISTIANE WEIRAUCH Department of Entomology, University of California, Riverside, 900 University Avenue, Riverside, California 92521 USA Citation: Masonick, P., M. Hernandez, and C. Weirauch. 2019. No guts, no glory: Gut content metabarcoding unveils the diet of a flower-associated coastal sage scrub predator. Ecosphere 10(5):e02712. 10.1002/ecs2.2712 Abstract. Invertebrate generalist predators are ubiquitous and play a major role in food-web dynamics. Molecular gut content analysis (MGCA) has become a popular means to assess prey ranges and specificity of cryptic arthropods in the absence of direct observation. While this approach has been widely used to study predation on economically important taxa (i.e., pests) in agroecosystems, it is less frequently used to study the broader trophic interactions involving generalist predators in natural communities such as the diverse and threatened coastal sage scrub communities of Southern California. Here, we employ DNA metabarcoding-based MGCA and survey the taxonomically and ecologically diverse prey range of Phymata pacifica Evans, a generalist flower-associated ambush bug (Hemiptera: Reduviidae). We detected predation on a wide array of taxa including beneficial pollinators, potential pests, and other predatory arthropods. The success of this study demonstrates the utility of MGCA in natural ecosystems and can serve as a model for future diet investigations into other cryptic and underrepresented communities. Key words: biodiversity; blocking primers; DNA detectability half-life; Eriogonum fasciculatum; food webs; intraguild predation; natural enemies. Received 24 January 2019; accepted 11 February 2019.

It is assigned to subfamily Noctuinae, tribe Erio- pygini. Rhabdorthodes pattersoni sp. n. from the United States and Rhabdorthodes durango sp. n. and Rhab- dorthodes petersoni sp. n. from Mexico are described. These moths are small, dull gray brown, and lack highly diagnostic wing markings, but are distinctive structurally. The adults and genitalia of both sexes are illustrated and distribution maps are presented. Two species eponyms honor persons who have facilitated the study and enjoyment of moths in North America by creating moth-specific websites.

[Hyssia cavernosa (Eversmann) a new moth for Sweden and the Nordic countries (Noctuidae, Lepidoptera).] – Entomologisk Tidskrift 129 (3): 137-139. Upp- sala, Sweden 2008. ISSN 0013-886x. A male of the moth Hyssia cavernosa (Eversmann 1842) was collected in a light trap in Mellstaby, Öland, Sweden on the night between the 11th and 12th of August 2007. This is the first record of Hyssia cavernosa in the Nordic countries. The specimen is a likely migrant to Sweden from Eastern Europe where it has expanded to the north during the last 10 years. The finding occurred at a time when many migrant moth species were recorded on Öland. Jesper Lind, Fågelögatan 3, SE -619 32 Trosa, Sweden.
