With an increasingly skeptical society to pesticides it is important that scientists and non-specialists (farmers and neighbours) meet and discuss their ideas about insecticide use and risks. This is necessary because the public’s perception of risks may well diverge significantly from that of specialists. In the periurban areas (the urban fringe) these problems and divergent opinions are likely to be more pronounced than in the rural areas. This review paper is also discussing the insect pest migrations and trap cropping with a view to find out whether insecticide application in field crops (e.g. oilseed rape) affects pest density in the adjacent garden crops (e.g. radish). Preface This introductory paper is a review based on references from libraries, internet and personal communication.

The impact of a native, leaf-feeding chrysomelid beetle (Phaedon sp. nr. oviformis) on bittercress (Cardamine cordifolia: Cruciferae), was evaluated in an exclusion experiment. Multivariate statistical analysis showed a significant increase in plant performance in the rotenone exclusion com- pared to performance in the paired control treatment. Plant response to the reduction of herbivory was a complicated, interrelated syndrome of changes. When insects were excluded, the amount of missing leaf area decreased significantly (3.6-fold; 3.2-0.9 cm2 per plant), and the total leaf area increased 5.7-fold (12.9-73.4 cm2 per plant).

ZooKeys 856: 51–73. https://doi. org/10.3897/zookeys.856.33724 Abstract The cosmopolitan flea beetle generaPhyllotreta and Psylliodes (Galerucinae, Alticini) are mainly associated with host plants in the family Brassicaceae and include economically important pests of crucifer crops. In this review, the host plant associations and geographical distributions of known species in these gen- era are summarised from the literature, and their proposed phylogenetic relationships to other Alticini analysed from published molecular phylogenetic studies of Galerucinae. Almost all Phyllotreta species are specialised on Brassicaceae and related plant families in the order Brassicales, whereas Psylliodes species are associated with host plants in approximately 24 different plant families, and 50% are specialised to feed on Brassicaceae.

Department Of Plant Science The University of British Columbia 1956 Main Mall Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Y3 Date ABSTRACT Rapeseed is grown from two closely related species of Brassica in many varieties. The behaviour of seven insects was studied to determine their responses to low erucic acid rapeseed, represented by a typical and a Canola variety of each species. The Canola varieties have a lower gluco- sinolate concentration in the seed coat than typical varieties. The insects were chosen because they were oligophagous or polyphagous. The actions of adults of two species of moths, Mamestra configurata Walker and Plutella maculipennis (Curtis), were studied by using an olfactometer; four species of aphids, Myzus persicae Sulzer, Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Ashmead), Brevicoryne brassicae (Linnaeus), and Acrythosiphon pisum (Harris), were studied when the adults were placed at the base of each type of plant.

    DEVELOPMENT OF AN IPM PROGRAM FOR THE TROPICAL SOD WEBWORM Herpetogramma phaeopteralis Guenée By NASTARAN TOFANGSAZI A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2014 © 2014 Nastaran Tofangsazi To my parents ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express the deepest appreciation to my committee chair and co- chair, Professor Steven Arthurs and Professor Ron Cherry, for their attitude and invaluable advice throughout the course of this project from the initial planning of experiments through to preparation of manuscripts. Without their guidance and help this dissertation would not have been possible. I would like to thank you for encouraging my research and for allowing me to grow as a researcher. I am grateful to my other supervisory committee members Professor Robert Meagher and Professor Laurie Trenholm for their excellent guidance and suggestions on how to improve my work. I would like to acknowledge the Center for Landscape Conservation and Ecology at University of Florida and Mid-Florida Research & Education Center (MREC) for providing financial assistance for the duration of my Ph.D. research. I am thankful to The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research and Professor Ashraf M. El- Sayed and David Maxwell Suckling for allowing me to work in their laboratories. I am grateful for the technical help of Robert Leckel, James Kerrigan. I would like to deeply appreciate Luis Aristizábal for supporting me as a lab assistant and as a friend. I appreciate the love and support that I received from my family and friends.

  • Lamb, R.J. 2015. George H. Gerber, March 19
    Proceedings of the Entomological Society of Manitoba, Volume 71, 2015 13 George H. Gerber* March 19, 1942, St. Walburg, Saskatchewan January 13, 2016, Winnipeg, Manitoba Robert J. Lamb Department of Entomology, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba R3T 2N2 George H. Gerber began his entomological career at the Saskatoon Research Station of what is now Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada. He spent three summers working there on soil insects while studying towards his Bachelor of Science in Agriculture at the University of Saskatchewan. Upon graduation in 1964, George stayed in Saskatoon enrolled in a graduate program in biology and completed a Ph.D. thesis in 1968 entitled: “Structure, formation, histochemistry, fate and function of the spermatophore of the caragana blister beetle, Lytta nuttalli Say (Coleoptera: Meloidae).” George was hired in 1969 as a scientist at the Canada Department of Agriculture Research Institute in Belleville, Ontario, where he began a long career investigating the biology of insect pests of crops. In September 1972, George and four of his Belleville colleagues were transferred to the Canada Department of Agriculture Research Station in Winnipeg. He became Head of the Crop and Stored-Products Pests Section at what by then was named the Cereal Research Centre, from 1989 to 1991. George worked there until his retirement in 1996. From the beginning, George focussed his research on the reproductive biology of insects, particularly the morphology, histology and physiology of reproduction in Coleoptera. His first published paper grew out of a course project in insect physiology on the regulation of the female reproductive cycle in Tenebrio molitor Linnaeus (Gerber 1967).

ZooKeys 856: 51–73. https://doi. org/10.3897/zookeys.856.33724 Abstract The cosmopolitan flea beetle generaPhyllotreta and Psylliodes (Galerucinae, Alticini) are mainly associated with host plants in the family Brassicaceae and include economically important pests of crucifer crops. In this review, the host plant associations and geographical distributions of known species in these gen- era are summarised from the literature, and their proposed phylogenetic relationships to other Alticini analysed from published molecular phylogenetic studies of Galerucinae. Almost all Phyllotreta species are specialised on Brassicaceae and related plant families in the order Brassicales, whereas Psylliodes species are associated with host plants in approximately 24 different plant families, and 50% are specialised to feed on Brassicaceae.
