Maternal Care in Acanthosomatinae (Insecta: Heteroptera: Acanthosomatidae)̶Correlated Evolution with Title Morphological Change

However, the origin of the maternal care in the family has remained unclear due to the lack of phylogenetic hypotheses. Another reproductive mode is found in non-caring species whose females smear their eggs before leaving them. They possess pairs of complex organs on the abdominal venter called Pendergrast’s organ (PO) and spread the secretion of this organ onto each egg with their hind legs, which is supposed to provide a protective function against enemies. Some authors claim that the absence of PO may be associated with the presence of maternal care. No study, however, has tested this hypothesis of a correlated evolution between the two traits. Results: We reconstructed the molecular phylogeny of the subfamily Acanthosomatinae using five genetic markers sequenced from 44 species and one subspecies with and without maternal care. -

Cannon Nutritional Ecology of the Carpenter Ant Camponotus pennsylvanicus (De Geer): Macronutrient Preference and Particle Consumption Colleen A. Cannon (ABSTRACT) The nutritional ecology of the black carpenter ant, Camponotus pennsylvanicus (De Geer) was investigated by examining macronutrient preference and particle consumption in foraging workers. The crops of foragers collected in the field were analyzed for macronutrient content at two-week intervals through the active season. Choice tests were conducted at similar intervals during the active season to determine preference within and between macronutrient groups. Isolated individuals and small social groups were fed fluorescent microspheres in the laboratory to establish the fate of particles ingested by workers of both castes. Under natural conditions, foragers chiefly collected carbohydrate and nitrogenous material. Carbohydrate predominated in the crop and consisted largely of simple sugars. A small amount of glycogen was present. Carbohydrate levels did not vary with time. Lipid levels in the crop were quite low. The level of nitrogen compounds in the crop was approximately half that of carbohydrate, and exhibited seasonal dependence. Peaks in nitrogen foraging occurred in June and September, months associated with the completion of brood rearing in Camponotus. -

Records are given for 43 species of insects and other small organisms not previously reported to be established in Hawaii. These species were first collected and identified during 1999 or earlier and are now believed to be established in the state. Known information on the taxonomy and biology is provided. The following are new records for immigrant insects and other small arthropods and mollusks that have been found in the Hawaiian Islands (Kurc Atoll to Hawaii Island) and identified during 1999 or before, but have not previously been reported as established in any publication. A complete listing of all new state records of terrestrial arthropods and mollusks in Hawaii, published during the eight-year period of 1991-1998, is presented in a separate paper (Kumashiro, Nishida, and Beardsley) in this volume. Common names for species are provided if they have been formally accepted. For other cases, the common name of the family and a host is given. These have been designated with "a" or "an." Con tributors who have provided information for the records arc acknowledged in parentheses at the end of each note. -

Introduction and Background on Proposed Action This biological assessment (BA) has been prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) to evaluate the potential effects on federally-listed threatened and endangered species and designated critical habitat from the movement of baled garbage and regulated (domestic) garbage (GRG) from the State of Hawaii for disposal at landfills in Oregon, Idaho, and Washington. Specifically, garbage is defined as urban (commercial and residential) solid waste from municipalities in Hawaii, excluding incinerator ash and collections of agricultural waste and yard waste. Regulated (domestic) garbage refers to articles generated in Hawaii that are restricted from movement to the continental United States under various quarantine regulations established to prevent the spread of plant pests (including insects, disease, and weeds) into areas where the pests are not prevalent. -

Conservation of Notable Species in Sandwell Country Park
Provisional Review of Scarcer Sandwell Valley Invertebrates. version 10 (March 2015) NB. This updates and replaces previous versions. Please inform us of any obvious errors or updates to help us refine our work. Contents Page 1 General comments 2 Map of the Valley 3-5 Table showing some scarce invertebrates 5-8 information on some scarcer species 9 Woodland Habitat Indicator Species 13 Notes on Butterflies of the Valley 14 Notes on conservation of the invertebrates Background Since 1974 local naturalists and Country Park Rangers have been gathering data about Sandwell Valley Wildlife. The advent of the EcoRecord database at the Wildlife Trust For Birmingham & the Black Country has enabled some 35 000 individual Valley wildlife records of over 4000 species to be computerised. The use of English Nature 'Recorder' has not only enabled analysis of the records into categories of rarity, but also enabled us to see the location of these species so that Country Park Managers and other interested parties have much more precise information on them than before. This is a seventh update of the original. It includes notes on many interesting local and scarce insects. This update retains lists of the Valley's ecological indicator species, concentrating on established woodland indicators. The final part lists the Butterflies of the Sandwell Valley with notes. Limitations of the current data set There are great differences in observer coverage on many potentially valuable Valley sites. Many organisms have not received attention for a variety of reasons- shortage of specialists and lack of identification literature for many obscure groups may mean that it is many years before some become accessible for study. -
Maternal Care in Pygoplatys Bugs (Heteroptera: Tessaratomidae)
NOTE Eut. J. Entomol. 95: 311-315, 1998 ISSN 1210-5759 Maternal care inPygoplatys bugs (Heteroptera: Tessaratomidae) M atija GOGALA', Hoi-Sen YONG2 andC arsten BRÜHL3 1 1 Prirodoslovni muzej Slovenije, Presemova 20, P.O. Box 290, SI-1001 Ljubljana, Slovenia; e-mail: [email protected] departm ent of Zoology, University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 3Zoologie III, Theodor-Boveri-Biozentrum der Universität, Am Hubland, D-97074 Würzburg, Germany Tessaratomidae,Pygoplatys, maternal care, egg guarding Abstract.Cases of maternal care and egg guarding were observed and photographed in bugs of the family Tessaratomidae. Females of one still undescribed speciesPygoplatys of from Doi Inthanon, Thailand, and ofPygoplatys acutus from Borneo are carrying their young larvae on the venter. The egg guarding was also observed inPygoplatys acutus from Kepong, Peninsular Malaysia. It seems, that maternal care is a characteristic behavior in bugs of the genusPygoplatys. Introduction Parental care at various levels is present in many insect groups. The guarding of eggs and attendance of the early instars probably reduces the levels of mortality during these stages, even in subsocial species which lack any nesting behavior. The parental (and usually maternal) care is known in the orthopteroid orders and in many other groups, e.g. Embioptera, Psocoptera, Thysanoptera, Heteroptera, Homoptera, Coleóptera and Hymenoptera (Tallamy & Wood, 1986). In Heteroptera, cases of maternal egg guarding and early instar attendance have been reported for many terrestrial and some aquatic species (Melber & Schmidt, 1977; Schuh & Slater, 1995). In families Reduviidae and Belostomatidae, cases of paternal care of the young are known (Tallamy & Wood, 1986). Until now, however, the only report of parental care in family Tessaratomidae has been published by Tachikawa (1991, egg guarding in the Japanese species of Pygoplatys and Erga; after Tallamy & Schaefer, 1997). -
