  • Spatiotemporal Pattern of Phenology Across Geographic Gradients in Insects
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2017 Spatiotemporal pattern of phenology across geographic gradients in insects Khelifa, Rassim Abstract: Phenology – the timing of recurrent biological events – influences nearly all aspects of ecology and evolution. Phenological shifts have been recorded in a wide range of animals and plants worldwide during the past few decades. Although the phenological responses differ between taxa, they may also vary geographically, especially along gradients such as latitude or elevation. Since changes in phenology have been shown to affect ecology, evolution, human health and the economy, understanding pheno- logical shifts has become a priority. Although phenological shifts have been associated with changes in temperature, there is still little comprehension of the phenology-temperature relationship, particularly the mechanisms influencing its strength and the extent to which it varies geographically. Such ques- tions would ideally be addressed by combining controlled laboratory experiments on thermal response with long-term observational datasets and historical temperature records. Here, I used odonates (drag- onflies and damselflies) and Sepsid scavenger flies to unravel how temperature affects development and phenology at different latitudes and elevations. The main purpose of this thesis is to provide essential knowledge on the factors driving the spatiotemporal phenological dynamics by (1) investigating how phenology changed in time and space across latitude and elevation in northcentral Europe during the past three decades, (2) assessing potential temporal changes in thermal sensitivity of phenology and (3) describing the geographic pattern and usefulness of thermal performance curves in predicting natural responses.

  • Biogeography of the Caribbean Cyrtognatha Spiders Klemen Čandek1,6,7, Ingi Agnarsson2,4, Greta J
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Biogeography of the Caribbean Cyrtognatha spiders Klemen Čandek1,6,7, Ingi Agnarsson2,4, Greta J. Binford3 & Matjaž Kuntner 1,4,5,6 Island systems provide excellent arenas to test evolutionary hypotheses pertaining to gene fow and Received: 23 July 2018 diversifcation of dispersal-limited organisms. Here we focus on an orbweaver spider genus Cyrtognatha Accepted: 1 November 2018 (Tetragnathidae) from the Caribbean, with the aims to reconstruct its evolutionary history, examine Published: xx xx xxxx its biogeographic history in the archipelago, and to estimate the timing and route of Caribbean colonization. Specifcally, we test if Cyrtognatha biogeographic history is consistent with an ancient vicariant scenario (the GAARlandia landbridge hypothesis) or overwater dispersal. We reconstructed a species level phylogeny based on one mitochondrial (COI) and one nuclear (28S) marker. We then used this topology to constrain a time-calibrated mtDNA phylogeny, for subsequent biogeographical analyses in BioGeoBEARS of over 100 originally sampled Cyrtognatha individuals, using models with and without a founder event parameter. Our results suggest a radiation of Caribbean Cyrtognatha, containing 11 to 14 species that are exclusively single island endemics. Although biogeographic reconstructions cannot refute a vicariant origin of the Caribbean clade, possibly an artifact of sparse outgroup availability, they indicate timing of colonization that is much too recent for GAARlandia to have played a role. Instead, an overwater colonization to the Caribbean in mid-Miocene better explains the data. From Hispaniola, Cyrtognatha subsequently dispersed to, and diversifed on, the other islands of the Greater, and Lesser Antilles. Within the constraints of our island system and data, a model that omits the founder event parameter from biogeographic analysis is less suitable than the equivalent model with a founder event.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department of Entomology FUNGAL PARASITES THAT MANIPULATE ANT BEHAVIOR: TOWARD A MECHANISTIC UNDERSTANDING OF AN EXTENDED PHENOTYPE A Thesis in Entomology by Maridel Anne Fredericksen 2016 Maridel Anne Fredericksen Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science August 2016 ii The thesis of Maridel Anne Fredericksen was reviewed and approved* by the following: David P. Hughes Assistant Professor of Entomology and Biology Thesis Advisor Christina M. Grozinger Distinguished Professor of Entomology Thomas C. Baker Distinguished Professor of Entomology István Mikó Research Associate Gary W. Felton Department Head of Entomology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Parasite manipulation of host behavior represents an extended phenotype of a parasite’s genes through a host’s body. Studying the proximate mechanisms by which a parasite induces abnormal behavior in its host can help us understand how behavior in general is regulated and how such specialized symbioses evolve. Fungi from the species complex Ophiocordyceps unilateralis manipulate ants to die in elevated locations that are suitable for the fungus to transmit to new hosts. This association provides a promising system to discover mechanisms of manipulation using new molecular tools. However, current progress in this system is limited because we lack a cellular context with which to interpret –omics data, and research so far has focused on only a handful of the hundreds of species that exist in nature. In this thesis, I use two approaches to explore this fungal parasite’s exploitation strategies and their effects on ant behavior.

  • The Phylogeny of the Zygopterous Dragonflies As Based on The
    THE PHYLOGENY OF THE ZYGOPTEROUS DRAGON- FLIES AS BASED ON THE EVIDENCE OF THE PENES* CLARENCE HAMILTON KENNEDY, Ohio State University. This paper is merely the briefest outline of the writer's discoveries with regard to the inter-relationship of the major groups of the Zygoptera, a full account of which will appear in his thesis on the subject. Three papers1 by the writer discussing the value of this organ in classification of the Odonata have already been published. At the beginning, this study of the Zygoptera was viewed as an undertaking to define the various genera more exactly. The writer in no wise questioned the validity of the Selysian concep- tion that placed the Zygopterous subfamilies in series with the richly veined '' Calopterygines'' as primitive and the Pro- toneurinae as the latest and final reduction of venation. However, following Munz2 for the Agrioninae the writer was able to pick out here and there series of genera where the devel- opment was undoubtedly from a thinly veined wing to one richly veined, i. e., Megalagrion of Hawaii, the Argia series, Leptagrion, etc. These discoveries broke down the prejudice in the writer's mind for the irreversibility of evolution in the reduction of venation in the Odonata orders as a whole. Undoubt- ably in the Zygoptera many instances occur where a richly veined wing is merely the response to the necessity of greater wing area to support a larger body. As the study progressed the writer found almost invariably that generalized or connecting forms were usually sparsely veined as compared to their relatives.

PO Box 220 Warrandyte 3113 ABN 94170156655/ACN A0024890C Editor's Corner DESPITE the hot, dry conditions in February and a closure on a FIRE BAN day, work at the nursery has continued apace. Seed sorting (right) and orchid re-potting has involved many. See photo below and page 4 for orchid action and species. Cool off with Pat and Mike Coupar on Lord Howe Island on page 2. But the heat has been on for our rangers and fire crews. Janaya tells part of their story on page 3. This month pages 8 and 9 have photo essays on some of the Warrandyte State Parks small creatures and a summer visit to Glynns wetlands. Just in time, Kel’s comments have ar- rived from the nursery. She reminisces about her childhood and then brings us back to the nursery on page 7. We look forward to receiving your contributions by 22 March as listed below. The end of the month has brought wel- come rain. Hopefully our fire fighters can relax as well. Enjoy the rain and the newsletter. Linda Caitriona has asked me to point out that the small bush bird listed on p. 2 last issue, as “White-faced Honeyeater, should have been the White-naped Honeyeater. LR Deadline for April 2013 edition newsletter is Friday 22nd March 2013 contributions can be emailed to Linda Rogan [email protected] or posted to PO Box 220, Warrandyte 3113 FOWSP Newsletter Page 2 So, armed with snorkel, mask and fins we cycled down to the said beach.
