  • Phytophagous Insects Associated with Endemic, Macaroneslan, and Exotic Plants in the Azores
    AVANCES EN ENTO MOLOGiA IsfRlcA, 1995, págs. 179-188 Phytophagous insects associated with endemic, macaroneSlan, and exotic plants in the Azores L. SIL 'A J. TAVARES Abstract: A survey of Myrica faya Aiton (Myricaceae) natural enemies, was per­ form.ed fra m. 1991 to 1993, in order to f1nd potential biocontrol agents for that plant, an ibero-macarones ian endemic, considered as a noxious weed in Hawaii. Sampl es were collected weekly at two sites in São Miguel, and complementary at São Jorge, Faial, Pico and Terceira islands (Azores). Since 1992, the survey was extended to include phytophagous insects associared wi th the other dominant trees at l\1yrica faya stands: Erica scoparia ssp. azo rica (Hochstetrer) (Ericaceae) an endemic, and Pittosporum unduLatum Ventenat (Pinosporaceae) an exo tic planr. Only 20 species of phyrophagous inseCLs were found: two H ereroptera, ten Homoprera, one Thysa­ noptera, two Coleoptcra and five Lepidoptera. M. foya and E. scoparia ss p. azorica support the life-cycle of four endemic insecrs. P. unduLatum is an occasional shelter for so me insects.

  • A Case Study from Kepulauan Seribu Marine National Park
    Biogeography and ecology of beetles in a tropical archipelago: A case study from Kepulauan Seribu Marine National Park Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University College London by Shinta Puspitasari Department of Geography University College London April 2016 1 I, Shinta Puspitasari, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Shinta Puspitasari April 2016 2 Abstract Beetles comprise not only the most diverse group of insects, but also contribute significantly to vital ecological functions. A quantitative formula to determine the optimal level of investment in the beneficial beetle conservation is still not available. I aim to establish specific attention to beetles and their role in tropical island ecosystems in small archipelago in Indonesia. The study aims to give further insights into beetle diversity patterns on islands in the Kepulauan Seribu Marine National Park and on Java, and how island isolation and area affect assemblage composition. My research also provides insights into the effects of anthropogenic activities on beetle diversity on these islands. A first important result is the substantial number of highly abundant island species and a high number of unique island species found in the study areas, indicating islands as potentially important for the global conservation of genetic resources. My results also highlight the highly varied results relating to the use of two different types of traps, pitfall traps and FITs, for sampling beetles. It underscores the need for complementary trapping strategies using multiple methods for beetle community surveys in tropical islands.
