  • Evaluation of Seedling Tray Drench of Insecticides for Cabbage Maggot (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) Management in Broccoli and Cauliflower
    Evaluation of seedling tray drench of insecticides for cabbage maggot (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) management in broccoli and cauliflower Shimat V. Joseph1,*, and Shanna Iudice2 Abstract The larval stages of cabbage maggot, Delia radicum (L.) (Diptera: Anthomyiidae), attack the roots of cruciferous crops and often cause severe eco- nomic damage. Although lethal insecticides are available to controlD. radicum, efficacy can be improved by the placement of residues near the roots where the pest is actively feeding and causing injury. One such method is drenching seedlings with insecticide before transplanting, referred to as “tray drench.” The efficacy of insecticides, when applied as tray drench, is not thoroughly understood for transplants of broccoli and cauliflower. Thus, a series of seedling tray drench trials were conducted on transplants of these 2 vegetables using cyantraniliprole, chlorantraniliprole, clothianidin, bifenthrin, flupyradifurone, chlorpyrifos, and spinetoram in greenhouse and field settings. In the greenhouse trials, the severityD. of radicum feeding injury was significantly lower on broccoli and cauliflower transplants when drenched with clothianidin, bifenthrin, and cyantraniliprole compared with untreated controls. In broccoli field trials, incidence and severity of feeding injury was lower in seedlings drenched with cyantraniliprole and clothianidin, as well as a clothianidin spray at the base of seedlings, than the use of spinetoram, chlorpyrifos, flupyradifurone, and chlorantraniliprole.

  • Tortoiseshell Real Or Fake?
    Tortoiseshell Real or Fake? How to tell the difference This article will concentrate upon the use of tortoiseshell for ornamental hair combs, as well as the various materials which have been employed to imitate it. However much of the material included here will be of interest to collectors of other antique and vintage shell objects. I will outline some rules of thumb for distinguishing genuine from imitation tortoiseshell, and methods for caring for it. Introduction For collectors of antiques and vintage items there are many reasons why it is important to be able to distinguish real from fake (or faux) tortoiseshell. 1) Real turtle shell is not allowed on eBay. If you are a seller and you are reported by a snitch for selling items in real shell you will get your listing/s pulled and a policy violation. You could even have your account suspended. 2) Much more significant is the fact that trade in real shell violates several US and other international laws. There are different regulations for antique and modern items made from turtle shell. The legal situation is extremely complex and what is allowed in one state or country may be prohibited in another. This however, is not an area that I intend to discuss here. Further information and reference to the various laws can be found in the eBay help section dealing with prohibited items. 3) Antique items made from real shell command a far higher price than those in synthetic or other substitutes because of their rarity value. So if you are a seller or serious collector it is important for economic (as well as aesthetic) reasons to be able to distinguish it from other substances.

  • Anthomyiidae Recording Scheme Newsletter No. 12
    Anthomyiidae Recording Scheme Newsletter No 12 Spring 2020 By the time you read this in print, the collecting season for Anthomyiidae could once again be well under way. The previous Newsletter a year ago (see Bulletin No 86) highlighted three genera, Egle, Chiastocheta and Leucophora which are particularly suitable for targeted recording in the spring, so please look back at that issue if you are not already familiar with them. If you have good relations with local bee recorders, you might encourage them to look out for and catch Leucophora females lurking near the burrows of solitary bees. Noting the bee species on any such records would give added value. This issue reviews the continuing growth of the Recording Scheme database as well as where to find data on Anthomyiidae from other sources. Another good genus for targeted recording later in the season is Chirosia with its twelve species currently recorded in Britain, all of whose larvae attack ferns. As with Pegomya leaf-miners discussed in Newsletter No 11, the feeding signs of some species are popular amongst recorders, but the association with particular species is not as clear-cut as previously suppose, as discussed in the final item. Current State of Recording Database The number of records credited to the Anthomyiidae Recording Scheme on the NBN Atlas was 17,374 in early December 2019. This is a 153% increase on the 6846 which were initially uploaded to IRECORD in autumn 2017. However, the number of Anthomyiidae records on the NBN Atlas amounted to 30,643, a factor 1.76 greater.

  • Short-Range Movements of Hawksbill Turtles (Eretmochelys Imbricata) from Nesting to Foraging Areas Within the Hawaiian Islands1
    Short-Range Movements of Hawksbill Turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) from Nesting to Foraging Areas within the Hawaiian Islands1 Denise M. Parker,2,3,4 George H. Balazs,3 Cheryl S. King,5 Larry Katahira,6 and William Gilmartin5 Abstract: Hawksbill sea turtles, Eretmochelys imbricata, reside around the main Hawaiian Islands but are not common. Flipper-tag recoveries and satellite track- ing of hawksbills worldwide have shown variable distances in post-nesting travel, with migrations between nesting beaches and foraging areas ranging from 35 to 2,425 km. Nine hawksbill turtles were tracked within the Hawaiian Islands using satellite telemetry. Turtles traveled distances ranging from 90 to 345 km and took between 5 to 18 days to complete the transit from nesting to foraging areas. Results of this study suggest that movements of Hawaiian hawksbills are rela- tively short-ranged, and surveys of their foraging areas should be conducted to assess status of the habitat to enhance conservation and management of these areas. Hawksbill sea turtles, Eretmochelys im- 1900s because of toxicity, but as hawksbill bricata (L.), are found in nearshore habitats numbers declined due to harvesting for scutes in tropical regions of all oceans.
