Eya California Environmental Protection Agency Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, Pesticide and Environmental Toxicology Branch 1001 I Street Sacramento, CA 95812 USA [email protected] Abstract. The genus Stenaspis Audinet-Serville, 1834 (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Cerambycinae: Trachy- derini) is recharacterized by providing additional morphological features to enhance the definition of this genus. Stenaspis plagiata Waterhouse, 1877 is transferred to Crioprosopus Audinet-Serville, 1834, new com- bination, and the latest key to species of Crioprosopus is modified. A key to the genera of Group III-Stenaspes with “abruptly separated anteocular space,” and a key to species of Stenaspis is provided. Color illustrations of the available species are included. Stenaspis lingafelteri Eya, new species, from Mexico is described. Key words. Identification key, America, taxonomy. ZooBank registration. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:37900822-FF60-4386-BF30-9434678DD39B Introduction As currently defined, the genusStenaspis Audinet-Serville, 1834 contains six species (Stenaspis castaneipennis Dupont, 1838, S. plagiata Waterhouse, 1877, S. solitaria (Say, 1824), S. superba Aurivillius, 1908, S. validicornis Casey, 1912 and S. verticalis Audinet-Seville, 1834) distributed from Texas and Arizona (United States) to Bolivia. Based on comments made by Bates (1880: 76), the genus Stenaspis is “restricted to those species in which the prosternal process is produced at its upper edge and presents a vertical face to the mesosternum, according to the intention of the founder Audinet-Serville.” Linsley (1962: 91) in his “Key to the North American Genera of Purpuricenini” further characterized Stenapsis as a group of species that are large, robust and 20 mm or more in length with apices of mandibles acute or simple (Fig. 1–6), prosternum that is protuberant or ridged between coxae and vertical or concave behind and mesosternum that is not protuberant (Fig. 7–9), elytra with unarmed apices (Fig. 10–12), and legs of moderate length, with posterior femora falling short of apices of elytra. The palpi are short, and the last segments are not expanded, and the pronotum is angulate or tuberculate at the sides. The apices of mandibles of Stenaspis are acute in S. castaneipennis, S. superba and S. verticalis; however, S. solitaria has apices that are simple but blunt and rounded or narrowly truncate. According to LeConte and Horn (1883: 297) Stenaspis belongs to a group of trachyderine categorized as “Group III-Stenaspes”, which includes Crioprosopus Audinet-Serville, 1834, Tragidion Audinet-Serville, 1834, Purpuricenus Dejean, 1821 and Aethecerus Chevrolat, 1862a (or Aethecerinus Fall and Cockerell, 1907) with frons large, square, perpendicular, abruptly separated from the anteocular spaces, and Mannophorus LeConte, 1854, Entomosterna Chevrolat, 1862b, Amannus LeConte, 1858 and Batyle Thomson, 1864 with frons moderate, short, declivous, and not abruptly defined on each side of genae. Stenaspes along with “Group I-Megaderi” (or Megade- rus Dejean 1821) and “Group II-Trachyderes” have mandibles that are acute or simple at the apices. These three groups are separated from “Group IV-Tyloses” with emarginate-truncate mandibles, which were reviewed previ- ously along with the revision of the genus Deltaspis Audinet-Serville, 1834 (Eya 2019). Stenaspes is differentiated from Megaderi and Trachyderes by the posterior margins of pronotal discs that are not lobed and sometimes sinuate, while the latter groups have the posterior margin of the pronotal disc broadly and distinctly lobed. Most of the Stenaspis species were described in the 1800s to early 1900s and were defined by few character- istics, mainly the apex of the prosternal process being vertical behind, which was considered unique for this genus 2 · January 29, 2021 Eya 2a 1 2b 2 3 5a 5b 4 5 6 7a 7b 7 8 9a 9b 8a 8b 9 10 11 12 Figures 1–12.

  • Chapter 15. Central and Eastern Africa: Overview
    Chapter 15 Chapter 15 CENTRAL AND EASTERN AFRICA: OVERVIEW The region as treated here is comprised mainly of Angola, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Congo (Brazzaville), Congo (Kinshasa) (formerly Zaire), Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia. The wide variety of insects eaten includes at least 163 species, 121 genera, 34 families and 10 orders. Of this group the specific identity is known for 128 species, only the generic identity for another 21, only the family identity of another 12 and only the order identity of one. Gomez et al (1961) estimated that insects furnished 10% of the animal proteins produced annually in Congo (Kinshasa). Yet, in this region, as in others, insect use has been greatly under-reported and under-studied. Until recently, for example, the specific identity was known for fewer than twenty species of insects used in Congo (Kinshasa), but, in a careful study confined only to caterpillars and only to the southern part of the country, Malaisse and Parent (1980) distinguished 35 species of caterpillars used as food. The extent of insect use throughout the region is probably similar to that in Congo (Kinshasa) and Zambia, the best-studied countries. Research is needed. Caterpillars and termites are the most widely marketed insects in the region, but many others are also important from the food standpoint, nutritionally, economically or ecologically. As stated by this author (DeFoliart 1989): "One can't help but wonder what the ecological and nutritional maps of Africa might look like today if more effort had been directed toward developing some of these caterpillar, termite, and other food insect resources." The inclusion of food insects in the Africa-wide Exhibition on Indigenous Food Technologies held in Nairobi, Kenya, in 1995 is indicative of the resurgence of interest in this resource by the scientific community of the continent.

    FOREST ENTOMOLOGY Bark Beetle Pheromones and Pine Volatiles: Attractant Kairomone Lure Blend for Longhorn Beetles (Cerambycidae) in Pine Stands of the Southeastern United States 1,2 3 1 4 DANIEL R. MILLER, CHRIS ASARO, CHRISTOPHER M. CROWE, AND DONALD A. DUERR J. Econ. Entomol. 104(4): 1245Ð1257 (2011); DOI: 10.1603/EC11051 ABSTRACT In 2006, we examined the ßight responses of 43 species of longhorn beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) to multiple-funnel traps baited with binary lure blends of 1) ipsenol ϩ ipsdienol, 2) ethanol ϩ ␣-pinene, and a quaternary lure blend of 3) ipsenol ϩ ipsdienol ϩ ethanol ϩ ␣-pinene in the southeastern United States. In addition, we monitored responses of Buprestidae, Elateridae, and Curculionidae commonly associated with pine longhorn beetles. Field trials were conducted in mature pine (Pinus pp.) stands in Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, and Virginia. The following species preferred traps baited with the quaternary blend over those baited with ethanol ϩ ␣-pinene: Acanthocinus nodosus (F.), Acanthocinus obsoletus (Olivier), Astylopsis arcuata (LeConte), Astylopsis sexguttata (Say), Monochamus scutellatus (Say), Monochamus titillator (F.) complex, Rhagium inquisitor (L.) (Cerambycidae), Buprestis consularis Gory, Buprestis lineata F. (Buprestidae), Ips avulsus (Eichhoff), Ips calligraphus (Germar), Ips grandicollis (Eichhoff), Orthotomicus caelatus (Eichhoff), and Gna- thotrichus materiarus (Fitch) (Curculionidae). The addition of ipsenol and ipsdienol had no effect on catches of 17 other species of bark and wood boring beetles in traps baited with ethanol and ␣-pinene. Ethanol ϩ ␣-pinene interrupted the attraction of Ips avulsus, I. grandicollis, and Pityophthorus Eichhoff spp. (but not I. calligraphus) (Curculionidae) to traps baited with ipsenol ϩ ipsdienol. Our results support the use of traps baited with a quaternary blend of ipsenol ϩ ipsdienol ϩ ethanol ϩ ␣-pinene for common saproxylic beetles in pine forests of the southeastern United States.

For the fine points, some knowledge of HS phonology and morphology is presupposed (consult the grammar). Cognates in other Songhay languages, and related forms in Fulfulde and other languages, are given selectively. Headword transcriptions are “underlying,” prior to tonal interactions with adjacent words. In phrases and sentences, verbs undergo tonal changes triggered by preceding constituents including some types of NP, several subject and object pronominals, and certain inflectional particles. Often these elements induce raising of the tone of the verb’s initial syllable (or mora, for monosyllabic stems) from L[ow] to H[igh]. In the dictionary entries, I omit “+H” at the end of words and particles that induce this raising, to avoid clutter; full details are given in the grammar. Singular-subject imperatives also show tone changes due to a final -ŋ̂ suffix that is segmentally deleted after a consonant. For intransitive verbs, the frame that reveals the verb’s lexical tones 3Sg subject à plus verb. For transitive verbs, the best frame is one with 3Sg object allomorph -à:. In example phrases and headwords for compounds, up-arrow ­ at the beginning of a word or morpheme is an index that initial-syllable tone-raising has occurred under the influence of the preceding element, as in gàŋgà [ẁ ­dú cìɲà] ‘prevented from having rain’.

Current address: 8920 South Bryerly Ct., Hereford, AZ 85615, U.S.A. ABSTRACT This article presents both ethnoentomological notes on Nahuatl and Mixtec language terms as they are applied to Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) and distributional records for species collected during three projects carried out in the states of Guerrero and Puebla, Mexico. Some comparative data from other Mesoamerican and Native American languages are discussed. Indigenous common names are mapped onto current taxonomic nomenclature, and an analysis is offered of the logical basis for Indigenous classification: the exclusion of some cerambycids and the inclusion of other beetles in the nominal native “cerambycid” category. New state distributional records for the Cerambycidae collected in this study are offered for Guerrero: Bebelis picta Pascoe, Callipogon senex Dupont, Neocompsa macrotricha Martins, Olenosus ser- rimanus Bates, Ornithia mexicana zapotensis Tippmann, Stenygra histrio Audinet-Serville, Strongylaspis championi Bates, Lissonotus flavocinctus puncticollis Bates, and Nothopleurus lobigenis Bates; and Puebla: Juiaparus mexicanus (Thomson), Ptychodes guttulatus Dillon and Dillon, and Steirastoma senex White.

O Brasil é considerado uma das nações mais ricas em biodiversidade de insetos, porém possui uma grande desigualdade de estudos na área de zoologia ao longo de suas regiões geográficas, devido a desigual divisão de recursos e de mão de obra especializada. A falta de coleções zoológicas importantes na região nordeste, as dificuldades em obter os recursos necessários para arcar com os altos custos de manutenção destas coleções e a falta de divulgação de suas bases de dados são pontos chaves das causas dessa desigualdade. O objetivo deste trabalho é divulgar a lista das espécies da família Cerambicydae, incluindo 12 holótipos, presentes na coleção entomológica Professor Johann Becker do Museu de Zoologia da Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana (MZFS) e fazer o primeiro registro da espécie Chrysoprasis airi Napp & Martins para o Brasil.

  • A New Species of Batyle from Utah (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)1
    No. 4 GUINEA PIG HEART AND HYPOTHERMIA 233 A NEW SPECIES OF BATYLE FROM UTAH (COLEOPTERA: CERAMBYCIDAE)1 JOSEF N. KNULL College of Biological Sciences, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210 ABSTRACT Specimens of a cerambycid belonging to genus Batyle, collected on Compositae 20 miles east of Escelante, Garfield Co., Utah, and sent for identification, are identified as belong- ing to a new species, B. knowltoni. The black color, short antennae, coarse dorsal punc- tures, and black pubescence distinguish it from other species in this genus. A small series, a black Batyle, unlike anything previously recorded, was received for identification from Dr. W. J. Hanson, Utah State University, Logan, Utah. A description of the form follows: Batyle knowltoni sp. n. Male.—Form and size of Batyle suturalis (Say); integument shining black, clothed with black pubescence. Head coarsely punctured; front depressed, finely punctate, central area smooth; antennae extending past middle of elytra when laid along side. Pronotum globose, wider than long, widest back of middle, wider at base than at apex; surface with apex and base transversely margined, irregularly coarsely punctured, leaving an irregular smooth area in front of scutellum, an upright black hair arising from each puncture; prosternum transversely impressed in front of coxae, densely punctured. Scutellum finely punctured, pubescence short. Elytra at base wider than widest part of pronotum; sides constricted back of base, then subparallel to separately broadly rounded apices which do not cover last dorsal segment of abdomen; surface densely, irregularly, coarsely punctured, punctures on basal three-fifths coarser than on pronotum, becoming smaller toward apices; a long black erect hair arising from each puncture on basal half, apical half with shorter recumbent pubescence.
