Shamsudeen and George Mathew 1Department of Zoology, Sir Syed College, Taliparamba, 670142, Kannur University, Kerala, India 2Division of Entomology, Kerala Forest Research Institute, Peechi, 680653, India Abstract: In the family Tineidea, the labial palpi are stout, erect, bearing piliform scales (bristles) from the apical and lateral surface of second segments. In the forewing, vein R4 usually terminates on costa. In the male external genitalia, the valva and saccus showed several characters useful in the segregation of species. In the present study two species namely, Edosa glossoptera Rose and Pathania and E. opsigona (Meyrick) have reported from the Western Ghats. Edosa glossoptera is a new allotype species to science. All the species possess unicolour forewing.

Numerous specimens of a tineid species were reared from larvae found in the stems of Capparis spinosa in Morocco. It has been determined as Xerantica tephroclysta Meyrick, 1930, the first record of this species from the Palaearctic region. Larva, pupa and adult are described together with the male and female genitalia, and the systematic position of the genus is discussed. Zusammenfassung. Aus Larven, die im Stamm von Capparis spinosa in Marokko gefunden wurden, konnten zahlreiche Falter einer Tineide gezogen werden, die als Xerantica tephroclysta Meyrick, 1930 determiniert wurde. Es handelt sich hierbei um den Erstnachweis dieser Art für die paläarktische Fauna. Es wird eine Redeskription des Falters sowie eine erstmalige Beschreibung der männlichen und weiblichen Genitalien gegeben.

Received 26 October, 2017; Accepted 3 July, 2018 African bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner), is a serious pest of cereals, sorghum, cotton, pepper, maize, sunflower, flax and niger. To control this insect pest, doses of insecticides have been used. The use of indiscriminate synthetic insecticides causes adverse effect like environmental pollution, human and animal health hazards, and development of pesticide resistance. To alleviate these bottleneck problems, botanicals and semiochemicals are the effective controlling methods and believed to be safe to environment and human health. For many years, many plants species having pesticidal effects have been tested against the insect pest; however, some of them are commercially not produced. And also semiochemicals are the worthy tools, especially in the insect pest monitoring, aggregation and mating disruption of the pest. The manipulation of these management options need to get attention in the development of integrated pest management strategies. To do so, compiling information regarding the research so far done in the area is important. Therefore, this paper emphasized on the review of the research has been done concerning botanicals and semiochemicals to control H. armigera. Thus, in this review paper, different botanicals that affect the insect pest through their juvenile hormone and growth regulatory activity, antifeedant action, larvicidal action, ovipositional deterrence, ovicidal and pupicidal effects have been reviewed.

We found the brown minute scavenger beetle (Corticaria sp.) at so many survey plots for the Little Things that Run the City project that we dubbed the species ‘Old Faithful’. I’ve recreated the map of the City of Melbourne within the beetle’s body. Can you trace the outline of Port Phillip Bay? Can you recognise the shape of your suburb? Next time you’re walking in a park or garden in the City of Melbourne, keep a keen eye out for this ubiquitous little beetle.
