    Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve Moth Survey 2009 Fauna Conservation Department Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden 29 June 2010 Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden Publication Series: No 6 Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve moth survey 2009 Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve Moth Survey 2009 Executive Summary The objective of this survey was to generate a moth species list for the Butterfly Reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest [SSSI] at Fung Yuen, Tai Po, Hong Kong. The survey came about following a request from Tai Po Environmental Association. Recording, using ultraviolet light sources and live traps in four sub-sites, took place on the evenings of 24 April and 16 October 2009. In total, 825 moths representing 352 species were recorded. Of the species recorded, 3 meet IUCN Red List criteria for threatened species in one of the three main categories “Critically Endangered” (one species), “Endangered” (one species) and “Vulnerable” (one species” and a further 13 species meet “Near Threatened” criteria. Twelve of the species recorded are currently only known from Hong Kong, all are within one of the four IUCN threatened or near threatened categories listed. Seven species are recorded from Hong Kong for the first time. The moth assemblages recorded are typical of human disturbed forest, feng shui woods and orchards, with a relatively low Geometridae component, and includes a small number of species normally associated with agriculture and open habitats that were found in the SSSI site. Comparisons showed that each sub-site had a substantially different assemblage of species, thus the site as a whole should retain the mosaic of micro-habitats in order to maintain the high moth species richness observed.

  • Jordan Beans RA RMO Dir
    Importation of Fresh Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), Shelled or in Pods, from Jordan into the Continental United States A Qualitative, Pathway-Initiated Risk Assessment February 14, 2011 Version 2 Agency Contact: Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Center for Plant Health Science and Technology United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Plant Protection and Quarantine 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Pest Risk Assessment for Beans from Jordan Executive Summary In this risk assessment we examined the risks associated with the importation of fresh beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), in pods (French, green, snap, and string beans) or shelled, from the Kingdom of Jordan into the continental United States. We developed a list of pests associated with beans (in any country) that occur in Jordan on any host based on scientific literature, previous commodity risk assessments, records of intercepted pests at ports-of-entry, and information from experts on bean production. This is a qualitative risk assessment, as we express estimates of risk in descriptive terms (High, Medium, and Low) rather than numerically in probabilities or frequencies. We identified seven quarantine pests likely to follow the pathway of introduction. We estimated Consequences of Introduction by assessing five elements that reflect the biology and ecology of the pests: climate-host interaction, host range, dispersal potential, economic impact, and environmental impact. We estimated Likelihood of Introduction values by considering both the quantity of the commodity imported annually and the potential for pest introduction and establishment. We summed the Consequences of Introduction and Likelihood of Introduction values to estimate overall Pest Risk Potentials, which describe risk in the absence of mitigation.

In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge not strictly professional." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields.

Stored commodities may become infested at the processing plant or warehouse, in transit, at the store, or at home. Many arthropod pests of stored commodities are relatively abundant outdoors, but natural host plants before preadaptation to stored products remain unknown. Capable of long flight, they migrate into unprotected warehouses. Adults (larvae) crawl through seams and folds or chew into sealed packages and multiply, diminishing product quality and quantity. Infestations may spread within a manufacturing facility through electrical conduit Figure 1. Adult of the cigarette beetle, Lasioderma serricorne and control panels.

SILVANIDAE The Silvanidae are a small family closely related to the Cucujidae. The adults are narrow and distinctly flattened, possess 11 -segmented antennae with a compact club. The elytra completely cover the abdomen, and there are five visible abdominal sternites. The tarsi are all 5-segmented. Most species are probably predacious, but two species of Oryzaephilus are of great importance as secondary pests attacking broken or milled cereals and oilseeds, while Ahasverus advena Waltl, the "foreign grain beetle", probably feeds on moults and refuse, and is rarely found in grain which is in good dry condition. Another closely related species, Cathartus quadricollis (Guerin-Meneville) which resembles the saw-toothed grain beetle, but differs by the square prothorax which lacks the six large teeth on either side, is one of the most common beetles in stored corn in the Southern USA, and on damaged and exposed ears in the field. Its form and habit are also similar, while the larvae have the annoying habit of devouring the germs of the seeds in which they breed.

  • Coca Biological Control Issues 6
    Coca Biological Control Issues 6 Biocontrol is something akin to gambling- it works, sometimes (13). radication l has been a component of U.S. supply reduction efforts for illegal narcotic crops (e.g., opium poppies, marijuana, and coca) for nearly two decades. Some experts believe that eradication must precede Ealternative development in the Andean nations. Others view coca eradication as futile and a threat to the culture and traditions of native Andean populations. Although key requirements, host country consent and cooperation are unlikely to be easily obtained (27,28). INTRODUCTION The level of coca reduction necessary to have a clear and measurable impact on cocaine availability is an unknown. Further, new processing technologies have changed the relation- ship between coca leaf production levels and cocaine availabil- c ity. For example, an intermediate product of cocaine processing, @l “agua rica, ’ appears to have excellent storage properties allowing processors to stockpile supplies. Thus, even with a reduction in cultivated area, a reduction in cocaine availability may not occur for years, if at all. Further, current cocaine (/) extraction techniques are only about 50-percent efficient; im- proved extraction could yield the same amount of cocaine from a much reduced leaf production base (28). 1 For tic ~Wo~e~ of ~js djsc~ssion, e~~icafion wi]l refer tO comp]e[c erasure Of d] traces of coca within a defined area. The area could be defined as small as a single plot or as kuge as a country. 183 331-054 - 93 - 8 184 I Alternative Coca Reduction Strategies in the Andean Region Eradication efforts have included voluntary and involuntary removal of the target crop.
