A CONTRIBUTION TOWARD A MONOGRAPH OF THE HO- MOPTEROUS INSECTS OF THE FAMILY DELPHACID^ OF NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA. By David L. Crawford, Of Stanford University, California. INTRODUCTION. The family Delphacidas was until quite recently and, in fact, by some authors, is yet considered as a subfamily of the larger group Fulgoridse. By most students now, however, it is separated from its near relatives as a distinct family, chiefly on account of the large, movable spur, or calcar, at the base of the posterior tibias. The most noticeable characteristic of the group as a whole is its homogeneity in general aspect and appearance. There are a few characters which are constant enough in subgroups to serve as diag- nostic characters, and there are others which are too variable to serve that purpose. Some of the latter have, however, been used by many of the previous students with the result that genera and species have multiplied beyond reason and confusion has more and more crept in. This latter fact has been reahzed more strongly as my work on the group has progressed, and it has at last become necessary to rearrange the classification of the genera to some extent in order to avoid much of the prevalent confusion. At the suggestion of Prof. C. F. Baker, of Pomona College, Clare- mont, Cahfornia, the task of working over several collections of speci- mens of this family and naming the species was undertaken some months ago. His own collection of over 2,000 specimens, together with the United States National Museum collection of a still larger number, many of which, also, had been collected by Professor Baker, were placed before me for study. -

A Synopsis of the Genus Stenocranus, and a New Species of Mysidia
THE OHIO JOURNAL OF SCIENCE Vol. XXII JANUARY, 1922 No. 3 A SYNOPSIS OF THE GENUS STENOCRANUS, AND A NEW SPECIES OF MYSIDIA. (HOMOPTERA). H. L. DOZIER State Plant Board of Mississippi The genus Stenocranus was founded by Fieber in 1866 and since that time three species have been placed in it from Europe, minutus Fab., fuscovittatus Stal. and longipennis Curt., Macul- ipes, described from South America by Berg in 1879 from a single female, has never been recognized since. In 1914, Crawford in his "Contribution towards a Monograph of the Delphacidae" described angustus from British Honduras, rostri* frons from Cuba, and similis from Alabama. Stenocranus crcecus of Van Duzee is now wrongly placed in the genus Kelisia and saccharivorus of Westwood does not seem to belong here. At present there are eight species described from the New World and the following paper brings the total up to twelve. As the original descriptions are widely scattered, for the most part in publications not readily accessible to the ordinary worker, it seems advisable at this time to review the genus, describing the new species and giving comparative outline drawings of heads and the male genitalia, all drawn to the same scale. All of the species, so far as known, with the exception of similis, occur on coarse grasses, rushes and sedges in swampy and boggy places. Similis, however, occurs abundantly on the bamboo-cane, Arundinaria tecta. Nearly all of the members of this genus are of a pale straw to brown color with a more or less distinct dorsal whitish 69 70 H. -

Prof. Dr. Soemantri Brojonegoro No. 1 Bandar Lampung 35145 email:[email protected] The outbreak of delphacid planthoppers has been detected across corn-growing regions in South Lampung. Survey study was conducted in three corn fields in Natar District,South Lampung Regency. In each study site, five corn plants were randomly sampled. In each sampled plant, one leaf with maximum number of planthoppers was selected for population recording. Based on the morphological identification results, there were two types of corn planthoppers attacking corn fields during sampling periods: the white bellied-planthopper, Stenocranus pacivicus Kirkaldy and Peregrinus maidis Ashmead. During sampling periods, S. pacivicus was most abundant species, while, the Peregrinus planthopper was almost undetectable. There was similar trend peak of density S. pacificus brachypters & nymph and macropters among the three corn fields. -

Prof. Dr. Sumantri Brodjonegoro No. 1 Bandar Lampung 35145 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The population of white-bellied planthoppers and their natural enemies: the new pest of corn in Lampung. The white- bellied planthoppers (Stenocranus pasificus), here in after referred to as WBP, as new exotic pests in Lampung have the potential to reduce corn production and threaten national food sovereignty. Therefore, population of the pest needs to be managed to prevent the outbreaks. However, there is still limited information on the bio-ecology of WBP. Thus, this research was conducted to: 1) study the population growth pattern of WBP on various corn cultivars and 2) document the natural enemies of WBP. This research was carried out from May to December 2017with a survey method on several corn fields in South Lampung and planting trial on an experimental field of Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Lampung planted with 3 corn cultivars, i.e. Madura, P-27 and NK which were arranged in randomized complete block design with three replications. The results of the research showed: 1) there were two peaks of population density observed during plant growth. -

Its earliest known member has been described from the Late Cretaceous (Santonian) amber of Taimyr and assigned to the extinct tribe Netutelini (Emeljanov, 1983). Szwedo (2008) described a monotypic genus from Baltic amber and placed it in a tribe of its own, Worskaitini, which he considered closely related to Netutelini. -
Parthenium Hysterophorus Linn.) Biological Control in Australia
Journal of Biological Control, 26 (2): 125-130, 2012 Review Article Current status of Parthenium (Parthenium hysterophorus Linn.) biological control in Australia K. DHILEEPAN* and RACHEL CRUTWELL McFAYDEN1 Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Biosecurity Queensland, Ecosciences Precinct, GPO Box 267 Boggo Road, Qld 4001, Australia 1 PO Box 88, Mt Ommaney Qld 4074, Australia Corresponding author Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Parthenium (Parthenium hysterophorus Linn.), an annual herbaceous plant native to the tropical Americas, is a weed of national significance in Australia. A major biological control program against parthenium in Australia commenced in 1977 and since then nine insect species and two rust fungi have been introduced into Australia. The stem-galling weevil, Conotrachelus albocinereus Deejan, the root-feeding clear-wing moth, Carmenta near ithacae, and the summer rust Puccinia xanthii var. parthenii- hysterophorae were the last three agents released. All agents established at some localities and seven are now widespread. Only the stem-galling moth Epiblema strenuana (Walker) is both widespread and damaging, occurring in all parthenium-infested areas in Australia at high population levels. In central Queensland the leaf-feeding beetle, Zygogramma bicolorata Pallister and stem-boring weevil, Listronotus setosipennis (Hustache) are also widespread and effective, while C. sp. nr. ithacae is at the early stages of field establishment and dispersal. In northern Queensland, E. strenuana and P. xanthii var. parthenii-hysterophorae are the only prominent agents. The combined impact of these agents has resulted in significant reductions in the abundance and impact of parthenium in most situations and seasons, though serious infestations can still occur. -

Mc~herson2 ABSTRACT The forms of the nymphal tibial spur in Megamelus davisi Van Duzee, and their relation to Muir's classification of delphacid subfamilies and tribes, are discussed. The evolutionary relationships among fulgoroid taxa, in our opinion, are not clearly un- derstood. Although some attempts have been made to clarify these relationships on the basis of adult morphology (e.g., Muir 1930), the morphology of nymphs, including the ontogeny of anatomical features, has been virtually ignored. -

Insecta: Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea) Julie M Urban1* and Jason R Cryan2
Urban and Cryan BMC Evolutionary Biology 2012, 12:87 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/12/87 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Two ancient bacterial endosymbionts have coevolved with the planthoppers (Insecta: Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea) Julie M Urban1* and Jason R Cryan2 Abstract Background: Members of the hemipteran suborder Auchenorrhyncha (commonly known as planthoppers, tree- and leafhoppers, spittlebugs, and cicadas) are unusual among insects known to harbor endosymbiotic bacteria in that they are associated with diverse assemblages of bacterial endosymbionts. Early light microscopic surveys of species representing the two major lineages of Auchenorrhyncha (the planthopper superfamily Fulgoroidea; and Cicadomorpha, comprising Membracoidea [tree- and leafhoppers], Cercopoidea [spittlebugs], and Cicadoidea [cicadas]), found that most examined species harbored at least two morphologically distinct bacterial endosymbionts, and some harbored as many as six. Recent investigations using molecular techniques have identified multiple obligate bacterial endosymbionts in Cicadomorpha; however, much less is known about endosymbionts of Fulgoroidea. In this study, we present the initial findings of an ongoing PCR-based survey (sequencing 16S rDNA) of planthopper-associated bacteria to document endosymbionts with a long-term history of codiversification with their fulgoroid hosts. Results: Results of PCR surveys and phylogenetic analyses of 16S rDNA recovered a monophyletic clade of Betaproteobacteria associated with planthoppers; this clade included Vidania fulgoroideae, a recently described bacterium identified in exemplars of the planthopper family Cixiidae. We surveyed 77 planthopper species representing 18 fulgoroid families, and detected Vidania in 40 species (representing 13 families). Further, we detected the Sulcia endosymbiont (identified as an obligate endosymbiont of Auchenorrhyncha in previous studies) in 30 of the 40 species harboring Vidania.
