[Psallus albicinctus (Kirschbaum, 1856) and P. pseudoplatani Reichling, 1984 (Heteroptera: Miridae: Phylinae) - the second localities in Poland]. The genus Psallus Fieber, 1858 is represented in the Palaearctic Region by more than 120 species, and is regarded as a non-monophyletic taxon. Species in this genus are usually small; their body length not exceeds 6.0 mm, and never are green (a body colour is from black to brown, red and yellow). They are zoophytophagous, and most of them overwinter in the egg stage and are univoltine. 23 species of the genus have been reported from Poland so far. This note pre- sents the second localities for two Psallus species, i.e., Psallus albicinctus and P. pseudoplatani in Poland, both from the Western Beskid Mts. Key words: Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Miridae, Phylinae, Psallus, faunistics, second record, distribution, Poland. Rodzaj Psallus Fieber, 1858 jest rodzajem bardzo licz- cus (Kirschbaum, 1856), P.

Research Ideas and Outcomes 7: e68056. https://doi.org/10.3897/rio.7.e68056 Abstract Entomological postage stamps are unique means of communication of science with the public and have been suggested as effective teaching tools in primary and secondary education. A survey of the taxonomic and other information contained on insect- and arachnid-themed stamps issued globally from 1891 to 2020 reveals that 30% of these stamps contain various errors and are scientifically unreliable. In addition, representations of insects are highly biased towards only two orders (Lepidoptera and Odonata), while other mega-diverse orders (e.g. Coleoptera, Diptera, Hymenoptera) are poorly represented or not represented at all. This phenomenon can negatively affect public perception of priorities in biodiversity and conservation. Standardization of taxonomic information on entomological stamps and implementation of rigorous quality control measures are encouraged to assure dissemination of accurate scientific information.

[Psallus albicinctus (Kirschbaum, 1856) and P. pseudoplatani Reichling, 1984 (Heteroptera: Miridae: Phylinae) - the second localities in Poland]. The genus Psallus Fieber, 1858 is represented in the Palaearctic Region by more than 120 species, and is regarded as a non-monophyletic taxon. Species in this genus are usually small; their body length not exceeds 6.0 mm, and never are green (a body colour is from black to brown, red and yellow). They are zoophytophagous, and most of them overwinter in the egg stage and are univoltine. 23 species of the genus have been reported from Poland so far. This note pre- sents the second localities for two Psallus species, i.e., Psallus albicinctus and P. pseudoplatani in Poland, both from the Western Beskid Mts.

Heteropteran bugs, aerial sampling, windborne migration, atmospheric transport, life-history strategies, seasonal cycles Abstract. Heteroptera caught during day and night sampling at a height of 200 m above ground at Cardington, Bedfordshire, UK, during eight summers (1999, 2000, and 2002–2007) were compared to high-altitude catches made over the UK and North Sea from the 1930s to the 1950s. The height of these captures indicates that individuals were engaged in windborne migration over distances of at least several kilometres and probably tens of kilometres. This conclusion is generally supported by what is known of the spe- cies’ ecologies, which reflect the view that the level of dispersiveness is associated with the exploitation of temporary habitats or resources. The seasonal timing of the heteropteran migrations is interpreted in terms of the breeding/overwintering cycles of the spe- cies concerned.

  • First Record of Psallus Assimilis in Hungary (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae)
    Opusc. Zool. Budapest, 2018, 49(1): 17–22 First record of Psallus assimilis in Hungary (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae) 1 2 1 D. KORÁNYI , V. MARKÓ , E.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The presence of Psallus assimilis Stichel, 1956 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae) is reported for the first time from Hungary. Specimens were collected from the canopy of field maple (Acer campestre L.) trees in Budapest, Diósd and Törökbálint in spring of 2015, 2016 and 2017. Our study indicates that P. assimilis is one of the most abundant heteropteran species in the canopy of field maple trees not only in suburban and urban forests but also on individual street trees in highly urbanized locations in Budapest. We provide photographs of the habitus and diagnostic characters of adults. Keywords. Heteroptera, Acer campestre, urban areas, distribution, faunistics.

  • The Miridae (Hemiptera : Heteroptera) Associated with Noble
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Gary Michael Cooper for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology presented in January 1981 Title: The Miridae (Hemiptera:Heteroptera) Associated with Noble Fir, Abies procera Rehd. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: /- Dr. John D. Lattin The Miridae, or plant bugs, associated with noble fir, Abies procera Rehd., are discussed. Thirty six species of the Miridae were collected from noble fir. Twenty five of these species are considered only "visitors" to noble fir. The study does not deal with these species. Noble fir is a host of the eleven other species: Deraeocoris incertus Knight, Deraeocoris piceicola Knight, Dichrooscytus sp. A, Orthotylus sp. A, Paradacerla formicina (Parshley), Phytocoris neglectus Knight, Phytocoris sp. A, Pinalitus solivagus (Van Duzee), Plagiognathus sp. A and Psallus spp. A and B. Fifth instar larvae and the adults of these eleven species were examined and described. The plant bugs were collected from the noble fir foliage every seven to fourteen days from early May to mid-October,1979 from Marys Peak in the Oregon Coast Range and the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest in the Oregon Cascade Mountains. Distributional data were added from collecting trips in Oregon on Grass Mountain and around Mt. Hood and in Washington state at White Pass and Stevens Pass. The larvae and adults of the eleven noble fir mirid species were observed in a growth chamber. Feeding observations were recorded for eight species. The larvae and adults were examined for external signs of insect parasitism. Sticky traps placed on the boles of noble fir trees on Marys Peak collected very few mirids, suggestingthat the mirids remain on the foliage and branches.
