  • What We Have Learned About the Bermudagrass Stem Maggot
    WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED ABOUT THE BERMUDAGRASS STEM MAGGOT D.W. Hancock, W.G. Hudson, L.L. Baxter, and J.T. McCullers1 Abstract Since first being discovered in southern Georgia in July 2010, the bermudagrass stem maggot (BSM; Atherigona reversura Villeneuve) has infested and damaged forage bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) throughout the southeastern United States. Our objectives for this presentation were to summarize the available literature on this new, invasive species and provide additional insight from what is currently known about other Atherigona spp. The BSM, along with other Atherigona spp., are small, muscid flies native to Central and Southeast Asia. The adult fly of the BSM lays its eggs on bermudagrass leaves. Upon hatching, the BSM larva slips into the sheath, down the tiller, and penetrates the pseudostem at the first node. The BSM larva then feeds on the vascular tissue, sap, and (potentially) the subsequent decaying plant material before exiting the tiller, pupating in the soil, and emerging as a fly. As a result of the larval feeding, bermudagrass exhibits senescence and necrosis of the terminal leaves on the affected shoots. The affected leaves are easily pulled out of the sheath and show obvious damage near the affected node. In severe infestations, over 80% of the tillers in a given area may be affected. There is a paucity of information about the lifecycle of A. reversura and how it can be managed or controlled, but some information is available on basic larva behavior, fly physiology, and the potential differences in resistance among some bermudagrass varieties. Additional research is underway to better understand the lifecycle of this species, confirm and quantify the degree of preference A.

Imada Hawaii Biological Survey Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum Honolulu, Hawai‘i 96817, USA Final Report prepared for the U.S. Navy Contribution No. 2021-003 to the Hawaii Biological Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Bishop Museum was contracted by the U.S. Navy to conduct surveys of terrestrial arthropods in Hālona Valley, Naval Magazine Lualualei Annex, in order to assess the status of populations of three groups of insects, including species at risk in those groups: picture-winged Drosophila (Diptera; flies), Hylaeus spp. (Hymenoptera; bees), and Rhyncogonus welchii (Coleoptera; weevils). The first complete survey of Lualualei for terrestrial arthropods was made by Bishop Museum in 1997. Since then, the Bishop Museum has conducted surveys in Hālona Valley in 2015, 2016–2017, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. The current survey was conducted from August 2020 through November 2020, comprising a total of 12 trips; using yellow water pan traps, pitfall traps, hand collecting, aerial net collecting, observations, vegetation beating, and a Malaise trap. The area chosen for study was a Sapindus oahuensis grove on a southeastern slope of mid-Hālona Valley. The area had potential for all three groups of arthropods to be present, especially the Rhyncogonus weevil, which has previously been found in association with Sapindus trees. Trapped and collected insects were taken back to the Bishop Museum for sorting, identification, data entry, and storage and preservation. The results of the surveys proved negative for any of the target groups.

  • Sampling Techniques and Population Estimation for Athergona Reversura
    SAMPLING TECHNIQUES AND POPULATION ESTIMATION FOR ATHERIGONA REVERSURA VILLENUEVE (DIPTERA: MUSCIDAE) IN BERMUDAGRASS HAY FIELDS by JOHN THOMAS MCCULLERS (Under the Direction of William G. Hudson) ABSTRACT Atherigona reversura Villenueve (Diptera: Muscidae) has the potential to become a substantial threat to bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon Pers.) hay fields through much of the southeastern and south central USA. In order to determine a protocol for treatment, a better understanding of A.reversura biology and a method for population estimation is needed. Regression analysis of an absolute and relative sampling technique yielded an equation [Density = 2(e-0.723 x sweep net count0.698), where Density = the number of flies/m² and sweep net count = the number of flies /10 sweep sample] to estimate the population of adult flies in a given hay field. The pupation period of A. reversura was determined to be 7-10 days on a 14:10 (L: D) photoperiod at two different temperature regimes (29.4°C/27.4°C and 27.0°C/25.0°C). The adult lifespan was 15-25 days when fed sugar water.

  • New Records of Pollinators and Other Insects Associated with Arizona Milkweed, Asclepias Angustifolia, at Four Sites in Southeastern Arizona
    Journal of Pollination Ecology, 27(1), 2021, pp 1-24 NEW RECORDS OF POLLINATORS AND OTHER INSECTS ASSOCIATED WITH ARIZONA MILKWEED, ASCLEPIAS ANGUSTIFOLIA, AT FOUR SITES IN SOUTHEASTERN ARIZONA Robert A. Behrstock Naturewide Images, 10359 S Thicket Place, Hereford, AZ 85615 U.S.A. Abstract—Asclepias angustifolia is a Mexican milkweed that barely enters the U.S.A. Its pollinators and other insect visitors have not been investigated. During 2018 and 2019, insect visitors were photographed at a native population and three gardens in and near the Huachuca Mountains, Southeastern Arizona. A total of 216 site visits produced at least 369 species of insects in seven orders. Images revealed 140 potential pollinators with a preponderance of Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, and Diptera. Orders of insects are discussed, as are flowering phenology, potential pollinators in functional groups, introduced insects, and the value of A. angustifolia for monarch butterflies and other insects in pollinator gardens and in planting palettes created for restoration sites. Keywords: Sky Island, Madrean Pine-Oak Woodland, monarch butterfly, Huachuca Mountains, gardening, restoration INTRODUCTION milkweed, A. linaria Cavanillies, that produces higher concentrations of cardenolide toxins and greater amounts of North American milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) provide defensive latex (Pegram & Melkonoff 2019). Planting nectar to an unusually large diversity of insects, making them milkweeds is becoming a widespread practice aimed at important members of existing ecosystems and valuable increasing north- or southbound cohorts of the monarch’s additions to sites benefiting from a broad spectrum of complicated multi-generational migration; however, some pollinators (Ollerton et al. 2019, Tallamy 2007).

Extending the grazing season, improving forage nutritive value, and reducing labor and feed costs during the winter months are two ways to achieve this goal. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) can be interseeded into bermudagrass [[Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.].] to increase forage mass and quality and extend the grazing season. A 2-yr study was conducted in Shorter, AL to evaluate effects of harvest intensity and harvest frequency of alfalfa-bermudagrass mixtures on dry matter (DM) forage mass, nutritive value, canopy cover, botanical composition, and alfalfa persistence. Harvest height treatments included 5-, 10-, and 15-cm and harvest frequency treatments included 2-, 4-, and 6-wk intervals. Four blocks of 9 plots (1.5 × 4.5 m) were arranged in a randomized complete block design. In Yr 1, plots were harvested at assigned harvest intervals beginning Jun 11 and ending Sep 4, 2018, and in Yr 2 from Jun 4 to Oct 10, 2019.
