North American Species of Cerambycid Beetles in the Genus Neoclytus Share a Common Hydroxyhexanone-Hexanediol Pheromone Structural Motif
FOREST ENTOMOLOGY North American Species of Cerambycid Beetles in the Genus Neoclytus Share a Common Hydroxyhexanone-Hexanediol Pheromone Structural Motif ANN M. RAY,1,2 JOCELYN G. MILLAR,3 JARDEL A. MOREIRA,3 J. STEVEN MCELFRESH,3 4,5 6 4 ROBERT F. MITCHELL, JAMES D. BARBOUR, AND LAWRENCE M. HANKS J. Econ. Entomol. 108(4): 1860–1868 (2015); DOI: 10.1093/jee/tov170 ABSTRACT Many species of cerambycid beetles in the subfamily Cerambycinae are known to use male-produced pheromones composed of one or a few components such as 3-hydroxyalkan-2-ones and the related 2,3-alkanediols. Here, we show that this pheromone structure is characteristic of the ceram- bycine genus Neoclytus Thomson, based on laboratory and field studies of 10 species and subspecies. Males of seven taxa produced pheromones composed of (R)-3-hydroxyhexan-2-one as a single compo- nent, and the synthetic pheromone attracted adults of both sexes in field bioassays, including the eastern North American taxa Neoclytus caprea (Say), Neoclytus mucronatus mucronatus (F.), and Neoclytus scu- tellaris (Olivier), and the western taxa Neoclytus conjunctus (LeConte), Neoclytus irroratus (LeConte), and Neoclytus modestus modestus Fall. Males of the eastern Neoclytus acuminatus acuminatus (F.) and the western Neoclytus tenuiscriptus Fall produced (2S,3S)-2,3-hexanediol as their dominant or sole pheromone component. Preliminary data also revealed that males of the western Neoclytus balteatus LeConte produced a blend of (R)-3-hydroxyhexan-2-one and (2S,3S)-2,3-hexanediol but also (2S,3S)- 2,3-octanediol as a minor component. The fact that the hydroxyketone-hexanediol structural motif is consistent among these North American species provides further evidence of the high degree of conservation of pheromone structures among species in the subfamily Cerambycinae. -

OConnor Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Museum of Zoology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: A new family, Bochkovocoptidae, is proposed for a new genus and species of psoroptidian mite (Astigmata), Boch- kovocoptes otomys sp. n., collected from the follicles of the facial vibrissae of Otomys denti (Rodentia: Muridae) from Uganda. The new taxon is characterized by retrorse processes and striated apical membranes on the subcapitular rutella, strong retrorse processes on the segments of the anterior legs, well developed pretarsi on legs I–III and a reduced pretarsus on leg IV. The new taxon is hypothesized to be related to the families Sarcoptidae and Rhyncoptidae. KEY WORDS: Follicle parasite, taxonomy, Africa.

Aiming at revealing general relationships between forest management and herbivory we investigated aboveground arthropod herbivory in 105 plots dominated by European beech in three different regions in Germany in the sun-exposed canopy of mature beech trees and on beech saplings in the understorey. We separately assessed damage by different guilds of herbivores, i.e. chewing, sucking and scraping herbivores, gall-forming insects and mites, and leaf-mining insects. We asked whether herbivory differs among different forest management regimes (unmanaged, uneven-aged managed, even-aged managed) and among age-classes within even-aged forests. We further tested for consistency of relationships between regions, strata and herbivore guilds. On average, almost 80% of beech leaves showed herbivory damage, and about 6% of leaf area was consumed. -
Contribution À La Connaissance Des Galles D'eriophyides Du Luxembourg
Bull. Soc. Nat. luxemb. 101 (2001) p. 75-97 Contribution à la connaissance des galles d’Eriophyides du Luxembourg (Acari, Eriophyidae) par Jacques LAMBINON 1), Nico SCHNEIDER 2) & Fernand FEITZ 3) Zusammenfassung: Im Beitrag werden 47 Gallmilbenarten genannt sowie deren im Grossherzogtum Luxemburg nachgewiesene Gallen vorgestellt und deren Fundorte aufgezählt. Bei 40 Arten handelt es sich um Erstnachweise für Luxemburg. 1. Introduction Les zoocécidies du grand-duché de Luxembourg sont très mal connues et seules quelques données occasionnelles ont été publiées, essentiellement dans les années 1950. L’un de nous (J.L.), intéressé par les galles de Belgique et des régions voisines, a continué à récolter de temps à autre de telles galles lors de journées d’herborisation au Luxembourg. Le deuxième auteur de ce travail (N.S.) a entrepris depuis quelques années un inventaire des galles du pays, avec l’aide de collègues entomologistes, dont surtout le troisième auteur du présent rapport. Cette première contribution sera, nous l’espérons, suivie d’autres portant sur les galles causées par les divers groupes d’animaux cécidogènes. Elle concerne les déformations dues à des Eriophyides, celles-ci allant de taches pileuses (érinoses) à de véritables cécidies. Les Eriophyides sont des Acariens minuscules, vermiformes et aveugles qui ne portent que deux paires de pattes locomotrices (g. 1). Leurs chélicères sont en forme de stylets capables de percer des cellules végétales et d’en aspirer le hyaloplasme. De nombreuses espèces sont gallicoles. En général les cécidies sont produites par la plante en réaction à l’injection de salive toxique au moment de la prise de nourriture (Docters van Leeuwen 1982, Alford et al.
