  • ARTHROPODA Subphylum Hexapoda Protura, Springtails, Diplura, and Insects

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000).

  • Insights Into the Venom Composition and Evolution of an Endoparasitoid
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Insights into the venom composition and evolution of an endoparasitoid wasp by combining Received: 16 October 2015 Accepted: 14 December 2015 proteomic and transcriptomic Published: 25 January 2016 analyses Zhichao Yan1,*, Qi Fang1,*, Lei Wang1, Jinding Liu2, Yu Zhu1, Fei Wang1, Fei Li1, John H. Werren3 & Gongyin Ye1 Parasitoid wasps are abundant and diverse hymenopteran insects that lay their eggs into the internal body (endoparasitoid) or on the external surface (ectoparasitoid) of their hosts. To make a more conducive environment for the wasps’ young, both ecto- and endoparasitoids inject venoms into the host to modulate host immunity, metabolism and development. Endoparasitoids have evolved from ectoparasitoids independently in different hymenopteran lineages.Pteromalus puparum, a pupal endoparasitoid of various butterflies, represents a relatively recent evolution of endoparasitism within pteromalids. Using a combination of transcriptomic and proteomic approaches, we have identified 70 putative venom proteins in P. puparum. Most of them show higher similarity to venom proteins from the related ectoparasitoid Nasonia vitripennis than from other more distantly related endoparasitoids. In addition, 13 venom proteins are similar to venoms of distantly related endoparasitoids but have no detectable venom matches in Nasonia. These venom proteins may have a role in adaptation to endoparasitism. Overall, these results lay the groundwork for more detailed studies of venom function and adaptation to the endoparasitic lifestyle. Parasitoid wasps, being invaluable in classical and augmentative biological control of various insect pests, are among the most abundant and diverse insects on earth1. They have two basic lifestyles. Endoparasitoids lay their eggs into internal body of the host, whereas ectoparasitoids lay on the external surface of their hosts1,2.

Journal of Hymenoptera Research 51: 101–158. doi: 10.3897/jhr.51.9296 Abstract The Swedish entomologist, Karl-Johan Hedqvist (1917–2009) described 261 species of insects, 260 spe- cies of Hymenoptera and one of Coleoptera, plus 72 genera and a small number of family-level taxa. These taxa are catalogued and the current depositories of the types are listed, as well as some brief notes on the history of the Hedqvist collection. We also discuss some issues that can arise when type-rich specimen collections are put on the commercial market. Keywords Chalcidoidea, Pteromalidae, Braconidae, Type catalogue Introduction Karl-Johan Hedqvist (1917–2009) was a well-known Swedish hymenopterist who published a large body of work in applied entomology, faunistics and systematics, with a special focus on Chalcidoidea (particularly Pteromalidae), but also dealing with all major groups of parasitoid Hymenoptera.

Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, population dynamics, seasonal migration, enemy-free space, primary parasitoids, Cotesia vanessae, secondary parasitoids Abstract. The painted lady butterfly (Vanessa cardui) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Nymphalinae) is well known for its seasonal long-distance migrations and for its dramatic population fluctuations between years. Although parasitism has occasionally been noted as an important mortality factor for this butterfly, no comprehensive study has quantified and compared its parasitoid com- plexes in different geographical areas or seasons. In 2009, a year when this butterfly was extraordinarily abundant in the western Palaearctic, we assessed the spatial and temporal variation in larval parasitism in central Morocco (late winter and autumn) and north-east Spain (spring and late summer). The primary parasitoids in the complexes comprised a few relatively specialized koinobi- onts that are a regular and important mortality factor in the host populations.

  • Order Hymenoptera, Family Chalcididae
    Arthropod fauna of the UAE, 6: 225–274 (2017) Order Hymenoptera, family Chalcididae Gérard Delvare INTRODUCTION The Chalcididae belong to a medium-sized family of parasitoids with 96 genera and 1469 species in the World (Aguiar et al., 2013). Their size ranges from 1.5 to 15 mm and their body is hard with surface sculpture consisting of umbilic punctures. They are predominantly black, sometimes with yellow and/or red markings, rarely with metallic reflections. The sexual dimorphism is minimal except in Haltichellinae, where the flagellum of the male is thicker and the scape possibly modified (Plates 18–21). Recognition: The family belongs to the huge superfamily Chalcidoidea, which now includes 22 families (Heraty et al., 2013). In this group the mesosoma exhibits a special triangular sclerite – the prepectus – which separates the pronotum from the tegula (Plates 7, 8). This plate is also present in Chalcididae but is quite reduced here (Plates 5, 29). The family is mostly recognized by the enlarged metafemur, which is toothed or serrulate on the ventral margin, and the strongly curved metatibia (Plates 26, 48, 57, 94, 131). Some representatives of other chalcid families (Torymidae: Podagrionini and some Pteromalidae: Cleonyminae) also have an enlarged metafemur (Plate 9) but here the prepectus is expanded as usual and well visible as a triangular plate (Plate 8); in addition the relevant groups exhibit metallic reflections (Plate 7). Finally the sculpture of the propodeum is quite different: it is almost always areolate in the Chalcididae (Plate 3), but never exhibits such ornamentation in the non-chalcidid families (Plate 6) The Leucospidae, with the single genus Leucospis Fabricius, 1775, would also be mixed with the Chalcididae as they also share their character states.
