Changes in vegetation structure can alter the physical habitat structure, thermal environment, and food available to arthropods, which play an important role in the structure and functioning of Arctic ecosystems. Not only do they provide key ecosystem services such as pollination and nutrient cycling, they are an essential food source for migratory birds. In this study I examined the relationships between the abundance, diversity, and community composition of arthropods and the height and cover of several shrub species across a tundra-shrub gradient in northwestern Alaska. To characterize nestling diet of common passerines that occupy this gradient, I used next-generation sequencing of fecal matter. Willow cover was strongly and consistently associated with abundance and biomass of arthropods and significant shifts in arthropod community composition and diversity.

Buckthorn and garlic mustard are invasive species of highest priority for development of long- term management solutions, such as biological control (bio-control). This research aimed to help determine 1) if there are suitable insects that can be used to reduce impacts caused by buckthorn and 2) to implement introduction of insects to control garlic mustard and assess their establishment and success. Buckthorn. Insects were collected and reared for carrying out host specificity testing. A total of 1,733 specimens (356 species) were collected from buckthorn infestations in this insect fauna survey. In total, 39 specialized arthopods were recorded from R. cathartica (common buckthorn) and F. alnus (glossy buckthorn) in Europe. The reassessment of the potential for biological control of R. cathartica and F. alnus was conducted based on work done in Europe from 2002-2007 on potential biological control agents.

    Die Wanzen (Hemiptera - Heteroptera) des unteren Maingebietes von Hanau bis Würzburg mit Einschluß des Spessarts von DR. KARL SINGER Asch affe 11 bürg ASCH AFFENBURG 1952 VORWORT Das vorliegende Heft 5 der „Mitteilungen" des Naturwissenschaftlichen Museums der Stadt Aschaffenburg enthält die Ergebnisse der Beobachtungen und Forschungen des Sanitätsrates Dr. Karl Singer über die Heteroptera unseres Gebietes. Der heute 87 jährige Autor hat sich sein Leben lang mit der Entomologie neben seiner umfangreichen ärztlichen Praxis aus Liebhaberei befaßt. Er ist dabei in Fachkreisen über die Grenzen Deutschlands hinaus bekannt geworden. Mit unermüdlichem Fleiß und seltener wissenschaftlicher Gründlichkeit hat er während der letzten 25 Jahre die Heteroptera unseres Gebietes von Hanau bis Gemünden, ebenso der sich geographisch anschließenden Steppenheiden zwischen Gambach und Thüngersheim, systematisch gesammelt und beobachtet, dabei eine hervorragende Sammlung zusammengebracht, die an Umfang, Reichtum und äußerem Glanz ihresgleichen sucht und über seine Fahrten und Funde Protokolle geführt. Als Ergebnis dieser Riesenarbeit zählt Dr. Singer nicht nur die hier festgestellten Hemipteren auf, sondern beschreibt den genauen Standort, die Erscheinungszeiten und Lebensgewohnheiten. Der Wissenschaft hat er mit diesem Werk, das ihn als einen immer seltener werdenden Typ des sich mit ganzem Herzen der Natur und deren Erforschung verschriebenen Arztes kennzeichnet, einen großen Dienst erwiesen, nicht weniger seiner Vaterstadt, die wohl wie wenige solche Ergebnisse als Frucht einer wissen­ schaftlichen Betätigung einer Reihe von Naturwissenschaftlern aufzuweisen hat.

Box 8026, 6700 EG Wageningen, The Netherlands Accepted: June 23, 1998 Key words: Heteroptera, Miridae, sex pheromone, long-range calling behaviour, close-range courtship behaviour, vibrational signal, ethogram Abstract As a prerequisite to the elucidation of the sex pheromone of the green capsid bug Lygocoris pabulinus (L.), we studied the bug’s reproductive development and behaviour. When kept under long-day conditions (L18:D6) at 25 ◦C, both males and females start to copulate 4 days after the final moult. Second matings occur in some females, even on consecutive days. The premating period is 10 min on average and copulation lasts 1 to 2 min. At long range, when males are attracted to traps baited with live females, we did not observe a specific calling position of the females. At short range, a characteristic courtship behaviour of the females was not observed either. Males showed a characteristic vibration of the abdomen, which was repeated several times before copulation. This behaviour can be used as a bioassay to test potential sex pheromone compounds. Introduction growers apply insecticides against this pest before and after bloom, in order to reduce the risk of damage The green capsid bug, Lygocoris pabulinus (L.) (Het- (Blommers, 1994).
