Hymenopteran Parasitoid Diversity & Tri-Trophic Interactions Hymenopteran Parasitoid Diversity & Tri-Trophic Interactions: The Effects of Habitat Fragmentation in Wellington, New Zealand Franz-Rudolf Schnitzler A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ecology and Biodiversity Victoria University of Wellington Te Whare Wānanga o te Ūpoko o te Ika Māui 2008 Cleora scriptaria larva on Macropiper excelsum With all those in mind that are close to me All denen gewidmet, die mir nahe stehen Abstract Habitat fragmentation and the resulting decline in biodiversity through the loss of habitat are thought to be the main threat to insect extinctions. According to the trophic level hypothesis, habitat fragmentation affects parasitoids more severely than their herbivorous hosts. Parasitoids also may be correlated with plant species richness, because plants host a variety of phytophagous insects acting as hosts for parasitoids, or plants provide food or act as shelter for parasitoids. In this study, the effects of the forest fragment properties; area, isolation, percentage of residential area surrounding focal fragments and plant richness on parasitic wasps and their interactions were examined. These fragmentation effects were examined in 10 urban native bush remnants in the Wellington and Hutt Valley region of the lower North Island, New Zealand. Fragmentation effects on species abundance, richness and diversity and on community assemblages were examined for the wasp families Ichneumonidae, Pompilidae and Proctotrupidae. Correlations between beta diversity of the plant community and the parasitoid community were analysed and the study investigated whether individual parasitoid occurrences can be predicted by the range of their host‟s host plants. This study focused on interactions between the kawakawa moth larva Cleora scriptaria, its primary host plant Macropiper excelsum and the parasitism rates by two parasitoids Aleiodes declanae (an endemic species) and Meteorus pulchricornis (an exotic species) and the herbivory caused by C. scriptaria larvae. In addition to interaction responses to forest fragmentation properties, interaction responses were also examined with respect to the properties of the plot and individual plant. i Individual species showed different trends in response to the fragmentation properties, making interpretation of a general community response difficult. The abundance, richness and diversity of small-bodied parasitoids were inversely related to increasing area and plant species richness. Parasitoid community composition changed with fragment isolation and plant species richness. Ichneumonidae strongly responded to isolation in one year, whereas the Pompilidae responded to plant species richness. The Proctotrupidae community structure showed no response to any of the fragmentation properties. Correlations between plant and parasitoid community structures were not significant and individual parasitoid-plant associations were weak and inconclusive. Parasitism rates for A. declanae were significantly higher in more isolated fragments with smaller trees, and were negatively affected by overall parasitism rates, more so in isolated fragments. Parasitism rates by M. pulchricornis responded positively to larval densities and declined with increasing plant richness. Herbivory was positively related to the abundance of M. excelsum, tree size and larval density. The current study provides evidence that the forest fragment properties examined are, on their own, not always sufficient predictors of community structure and interactions for parasitoids. Aspects of the results from this thesis conflict with the trophic-level hypothesis with species responding in a negative or positive way, or not responding at all to forest fragmentation effects. The findings of this thesis support to conserving species diversity by maintaining and enhancing all types of existing forest fragments to prevent species extinctions. ii Acknowledgements Foremost I would like to thank my supervisors Phil Lester and Stephen Hartley. Without their help and support this thesis would never have happened. I surely must have tested Phil‟s patience to its limits and I am very grateful for his thought-provoking comments and ideas from the very start until the very end. Many thanks also go to Stephen who joined my project as second supervisor and has spent much time with me sorting out those bloody statistics. Many thanks go to Shirley Pledger and Clare Salmond whose statistical knowledge has been invaluable. Eleven years ago, prompted by my partner Jutta Humpfer, I started my university studies and enrolled for a Bachelor of Social Sciences. At that time I did not envisage that I would end my studies by writing this thesis. Jutta‟s support through all those years meant a lot to me and it was also she who encouraged me to enrol in Biology alongside Psychology. I will never forget the day when I sought permission from the Biology Department at Waikato University to double major. I remember appearing forlorn in the Biology Department‟s corridors asking someone where the office was so I could have my enrolment signed. This person happened to be Peter Molan, who proudly announced „I am Biology‟ and signed my life away for the next 11 years. From then on it became all too clear. After my very first assignment about compost toilets for the New Start course offered by Waikato University, to changing my degree to a Bachelor of Science, the discovery of my real passion, entomology, to the very end of this thesis, I would like to thank all of you who have contributed and supported me along iii the way in whatever form. Without this support I would not be here and I would not have written this thesis. Other people have contributed their time and expertise, for which I am greatly thankful: John Brightwell, Travis Chellman, Adrian Pike, Nick Rawlence, Megan Sarty and Lloyd Stringer for the assistance in the lab and sorting of insects with special thanks to Megan for her help looking after the live larvae whilst I was in the field. For help with some of the species identification I would like to thank Jo Berry, John Dugdale, Allen Heath, Phil Lester and Gregor Yeates. For the use of their Hymenoptera collections special thanks to Jo Berry (New Zealand Arthropod Collection), John Early (Auckland Museum) and Ricardo Palma and Phil Sirvid (Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa). Many thanks go to Cleland Wallace for surveying the plant communities. I thank the New Zealand Department of Conservation for the loan of Malaise traps especially Ian Stringer and Mike Wakelin. The Department of Conservation also supplied me with Topo Vector Data for the Wellington region. Thanks also to the bug-club of the School of Biological Sciences at Victoria University of Wellington for valuable comments on my thesis during the research, analysis and writing process. Special thanks go to Kirsti Abbot, Vaughn Bell, Catherine Duthie, Marc Hasenbank, Angela Moles and Adrian Pike. I would like to thank all my friends and coffee mates, especially James Mathew, Adele White, Bruce Norris, Sonja Miller and Phil James, who had to share an office with me and endure my ups and downs during all this time. It was especially handy to share an office with the ever charming Bruce. His PC and IT knowledge certainly made life and computer usage much easier and I learned a lot from him. iv I also would like to thank the Karori Wildlife Sanctuary (Raewyn Empson), the Otari Botanical Gardens, the Wellington City Council (Joanna Gillanders and Jane Wright), the Hutt City Council (Kelly Crandle), the Upper Hutt City Council (Brett Latimer), and the Wellington Regional Council (Philippa Crisp and Chris Wootton) for permission to establish traps in native bush fragments. A very big thank you goes to the School of Biological Sciences, with special thanks to Marry Murray, Delwyn Carter and Patricia Stein. I enjoyed my time and felt very much at home within the whole department and I am very grateful for the support and encouragement I have experienced from all staff and students alike. Many thanks also go to Paul Blackman for making the final professional proof reading of my thesis possible, which was carried out by Dick Ward from Write You Are. With so many people to thank I am bound to have unintentionally overlooked some and sincerely apologise for this. For funding I would like to thank the Victoria University of Wellington, for providing research funds, a PhD scholarship and a PhD finishing scholarship. This research was also funded by the 21st Anniversary Fund from the Entomological Society of NZ and the Claude McCarthy scholarship allowed me to present my work at an international entomology conference. v Table of Contents Abstract…………………………………………………………………………... i Acknowledgements……………………………………………………………… iii CHAPTER 1.

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.

  • ELIZABETH LOCKARD SKILLEN Diversity of Parasitic Hymenoptera
    ELIZABETH LOCKARD SKILLEN Diversity of Parasitic Hymenoptera (Ichneumonidae: Campopleginae and Ichneumoninae) in Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Eastern North American Forests (Under the direction of JOHN PICKERING) I examined species richness and composition of Campopleginae and Ichneumoninae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) parasitoids in cut and uncut forests and before and after fire in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee (GSMNP). I also compared alpha and beta diversity along a latitudinal gradient in Eastern North America with sites in Ontario, Maryland, Georgia, and Florida. Between 1997- 2000, I ran insect Malaise traps at 6 sites in two habitats in GSMNP. Sites include 2 old-growth mesic coves (Porters Creek and Ramsay Cascades), 2 second-growth mesic coves (Meigs Post Prong and Fish Camp Prong) and 2 xeric ridges (Lynn Hollow East and West) in GSMNP. I identified 307 species (9,716 individuals): 165 campoplegine species (3,273 individuals) and a minimum of 142 ichneumonine species (6,443 individuals) from 6 sites in GSMNP. The results show the importance of habitat differences when examining ichneumonid species richness at landscape scales. I report higher richness for both subfamilies combined in the xeric ridge sites (Lynn Hollow West (114) and Lynn Hollow East (112)) than previously reported peaks at mid-latitudes, in Maryland (103), and lower than Maryland for the two cove sites (Porters Creek, 90 and Ramsay Cascades, 88). These subfamilies appear to have largely recovered 70+ years after clear-cutting, yet Campopleginae may be more susceptible to logging disturbance. Campopleginae had higher species richness in old-growth coves and a 66% overlap in species composition between previously cut and uncut coves.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Japanese species of the genus Apophua Morley, 1913, are revised. Eleven species are found from Japan and two of them, A. elegans sp. nov. and A. yamato sp. nov., are newly described. Distribution data and an updated key to Japanese species are provided. Key words: Far East Asia, Glyptini, new species, parasitoid, taxonomy Introduction The genus Apophua Morley, 1913, is a medium-sized taxon of ichneumonid wasps of the tribe Glyptini, subfamily Banchinae, which contains 36 described species from the Afrotropical (13 spp.), Eastern Palaearctic (10), Oriental (10), Western Palaearctic (5), Nearctic (2), and Australasian (2) regions (Yu et al., 2012). The species in this genus are known as koinobiont endoparasitoids of lepidopteran larvae, particularly of leaf rollers (e.g. Tortricidae), and include some important natural enemies of forest pests (Kamijo, 1973; Momoi et al., 1975). We have studied the Japanese species of Apophua as part of a review of the Japanese Glyptini and have recognized 11 species.

Large-scale deployment of Bt-transgenic crops with resistance to H. armigera may have potential consequences for the development and survival of C. chlorideae. Therefore, we studied the tritrophic interactions of C. chlorideae involving eight insect host species and six host crops under laboratory conditions. The recovery of H. armigera larvae following release was greater on pigeonpea and chickpea when compared with cotton, groundnut and pearl millet. The parasitism by C. chlorideae females was least with reduction in cocoon formation and adult emergence on H. armigera larvae released on chickpea. Host insects also had significant effect on the development and survival of C. chlorideae. The larval period of C. chlorideae was prolonged by 2–3 days on Spodoptera exigua, Mythimna separata and Achaea janata when compared with H. armigera, Helicoverpa assulta and Spodoptera litura. Maximum cocoon formation and adult emergence were recorded on H. armigera (82.4% and 70.5%, respectively) than on other insect hosts. These studies have important implications on development and survival of C.

  • Food Webs in Space: on the Interplay of Dynamic Instability and Spatial Processes Robert D
    Ecological Research (2002) 17, 261–273 Food webs in space: On the interplay of dynamic instability and spatial processes Robert D. Holt* Department of Zoology, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32611-8525, USA Ecologists increasingly recognize that a consideration of spatial dynamics is essential for resolving many classical problems in community ecology. In the present paper, I argue that understanding how trophic interactions influence population stability can have important implications for the expression of spatial processes. I use two examples to illustrate this point. The first example has to do with spatial determinants of food chain length. Prior theoretical and empirical work has sug- gested that colonization–extinction dynamics can influence food chain length, at least for specialist consumers. I briefly review evidence and prior theory that food chain length is sensitive to area. A metacommunity scenario, in which each of various patches can have a food chain varying in length (but in which a consumer is not present on a patch unless its required resource is also present), shows that alternative landscape states are possible. This possibility arises if top predators moder- ate unstable interactions between intermediate predators and basal resources. The second example has to do with the impact of recurrent immigration on the stability of persistent populations. Immi- gration can either stabilize or destabilize local population dynamics. Moreover, an increase in immigration can decrease average population size for unstable populations with direct density- dependence, or in predator–prey systems with saturating functional responses. These theoretical models suggest that the interplay of temporal variation and spatial fluxes can lead to novel quali- tative phenomena.

  • Identification Key to the Subfamilies of Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera)
    Identification key to the subfamilies of Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) Gavin Broad Dept. of Entomology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, UK Notes on the key, February 2011 This key to ichneumonid subfamilies should be regarded as a test version and feedback will be much appreciated (emails to [email protected]). Many of the illustrations are provisional and more characters need to be illustrated, which is a work in progress. Many of the scanning electron micrographs were taken by Sondra Ward for Ian Gauld’s series of volumes on the Ichneumonidae of Costa Rica. Many of the line drawings are by Mike Fitton. I am grateful to Pelle Magnusson for the photographs of Brachycyrtus ornatus and for his suggestion as to where to include this subfamily in the key. Other illustrations are my own work. Morphological terminology mostly follows Fitton et al. (1988). A comprehensively illustrated list of morphological terms employed here is in development. In lateral views, the anterior (head) end of the wasp is to the left and in dorsal or ventral images, the anterior (head) end is uppermost. There are a few exceptions (indicated in figure legends) and these will rectified soon. Identifying ichneumonids Identifying ichneumonids can be a daunting process, with about 2,400 species in Britain and Ireland. These are currently classified into 32 subfamilies (there are a few more extralimitally). Rather few of these subfamilies are reconisable on the basis of simple morphological character states, rather, they tend to be reconisable on combinations of characters that occur convergently and in different permutations across various groups of ichneumonids.
