Written indications about its technology (grafting, pruning, pest control etc) are older than 1500 years, when the jujube was one of the top five most important fruits in China, together with peach, apricot, plum and chestnut. Their nutraceutical qualities were highly appreciated, but also the beauty of the tree and the flower perfume, which legends says, made people fall in love. Nowadays, the crop is expanding, both in China and on the other continents, due to the high content of bioactive compounds that can help in lowering the blood pressure, in liver diseases, anaemia and also inhibit the growth of tumor cells etc. In Romania, the species grows sub spontaneous since the antique times and until the present moment no important pests had been reported. Still, giving the climatic changes in the last years, many pests became invasive and enlarge their host plant spectrum. On the USAMV Bucharest experimental field, we monitor the pests incidence and we identify few species that might become a threat: Halyomorpha halys (Stal) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), Metcalfa pruinosa Say (Homoptera: Flatidae), Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera, Tephritidae) and Nezara viridula (L.) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae). The other potential polyphagous pests, like weevils, fruit borers and moths, made insignificant damages on the fruits, but they should still be under careful observation. Data about the pests’ biology, damage and control are given. Key words: Zizipus jujuba, Halyomorpha halys, invasive alien species, polyphagous pests, quarantine pests. INTRODUCTION (Johnstone, 2014) and in Europe, research being done mainly in Romania, Itally and The jujube fruits are nowadays worldwide Macedonia (Cossio et Bassi, 2011, 2013; appreciated as an outstanding source of Markovski et Velkoska-Markovska, 2015; biologically active compounds, with high Stănică, 2002). Jujube leaves proved to have an nutraceutical value (Liu et al., 2014, Preeti et insecticide action against one of the major pest Tripathi, 2014).

Found in a single locality (Parszowice) in Lower Silesia, this species was recorded in a garden on Bryonia alba. Notes on the identification, biology and remarks on the general distribution and origin of the northern populations of this species are given. Colour photographs of the habitus and live specimens are also provided. Key words: Goniglossum wiedemanni, Carpomyini, species new for Poland, Lower Silesia, general distribution, Bryonia alba. INTRODUCTION Species from the family Tephritidae, the larvae of which develop in fruit, belong to the subfamilies Dacinae and Trypetinae. They occur most numerously in regions with a tropical or subtropical climate, where they pose a serious economic problem: in some areas they give rise to crop losses worth many millions of dollars. In central Europe, there are only a few species whose larvae feed on fruit; they belong exclusively to the tribes Carpomyini and Trypetini from the subfamily Trypetinae.

  • Flies) Benjamin Kongyeli Badii
    Chapter Phylogeny and Functional Morphology of Diptera (Flies) Benjamin Kongyeli Badii Abstract The order Diptera includes all true flies. Members of this order are the most ecologically diverse and probably have a greater economic impact on humans than any other group of insects. The application of explicit methods of phylogenetic and morphological analysis has revealed weaknesses in the traditional classification of dipteran insects, but little progress has been made to achieve a robust, stable clas- sification that reflects evolutionary relationships and morphological adaptations for a more precise understanding of their developmental biology and behavioral ecol- ogy. The current status of Diptera phylogenetics is reviewed in this chapter. Also, key aspects of the morphology of the different life stages of the flies, particularly characters useful for taxonomic purposes and for an understanding of the group’s biology have been described with an emphasis on newer contributions and progress in understanding this important group of insects. Keywords: Tephritoidea, Diptera flies, Nematocera, Brachycera metamorphosis, larva 1. Introduction Phylogeny refers to the evolutionary history of a taxonomic group of organisms. Phylogeny is essential in understanding the biodiversity, genetics, evolution, and ecology among groups of organisms [1, 2]. Functional morphology involves the study of the relationships between the structure of an organism and the function of the various parts of an organism. The old adage “form follows function” is a guiding principle of functional morphology. It helps in understanding the ways in which body structures can be used to produce a wide variety of different behaviors, including moving, feeding, fighting, and reproducing. It thus, integrates concepts from physiology, evolution, anatomy and development, and synthesizes the diverse ways that biological and physical factors interact in the lives of organisms [3].

  • Discrimination Between Eggs from Stink Bugs Species in Europe Using MALDI-TOF MS
    insects Article Discrimination between Eggs from Stink Bugs Species in Europe Using MALDI-TOF MS Michael A. Reeve 1,* and Tim Haye 2 1 CABI, Bakeham Lane, Egham, Surrey TW20 9TY, UK 2 CABI, Rue des Grillons 1, CH-2800 Delémont, Switzerland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Recent globalization of trade and travel has led to the introduction of exotic insects into Europe, including the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys)—a highly polyphagous pest with more than 200 host plants, including many agricultural crops. Unfortunately, farmers and crop-protection advisers finding egg masses of stink bugs during crop scouting frequently struggle to identify correctly the species based on their egg masses, and easily confuse eggs of the invasive H. halys with those of other (native) species. To this end, we have investigated using matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) for rapid, fieldwork-compatible, and low-reagent-cost discrimination between the eggs of native and exotic stink bugs. Abstract: In the current paper, we used a method based on stink bug egg-protein immobilization on filter paper by drying, followed by post-(storage and shipping) extraction in acidified acetonitrile containing matrix, to discriminate between nine different species using MALDI-TOF MS. We obtained 87 correct species-identifications in 87 blind tests using this method. With further processing of the unblinded data, the highest average Bruker score for each tested species was that of the cognate Citation: Reeve, M.A.; Haye, T. reference species, and the observed differences in average Bruker scores were generally large and the Discrimination between Eggs from errors small except for Capocoris fuscispinus, Dolycoris baccarum, and Graphosoma italicum, where the Stink Bugs Species in Europe Using average scores were lower and the errors higher relative to the remaining comparisons.
