  • Arthropods of Elm Fork Preserve
    Arthropods of Elm Fork Preserve Arthropods are characterized by having jointed limbs and exoskeletons. They include a diverse assortment of creatures: Insects, spiders, crustaceans (crayfish, crabs, pill bugs), centipedes and millipedes among others. Column Headings Scientific Name: The phenomenal diversity of arthropods, creates numerous difficulties in the determination of species. Positive identification is often achieved only by specialists using obscure monographs to ‘key out’ a species by examining microscopic differences in anatomy. For our purposes in this survey of the fauna, classification at a lower level of resolution still yields valuable information. For instance, knowing that ant lions belong to the Family, Myrmeleontidae, allows us to quickly look them up on the Internet and be confident we are not being fooled by a common name that may also apply to some other, unrelated something. With the Family name firmly in hand, we may explore the natural history of ant lions without needing to know exactly which species we are viewing. In some instances identification is only readily available at an even higher ranking such as Class. Millipedes are in the Class Diplopoda. There are many Orders (O) of millipedes and they are not easily differentiated so this entry is best left at the rank of Class. A great deal of taxonomic reorganization has been occurring lately with advances in DNA analysis pointing out underlying connections and differences that were previously unrealized. For this reason, all other rankings aside from Family, Genus and Species have been omitted from the interior of the tables since many of these ranks are in a state of flux.

  • Hemiptera: Heteroptera) with a Review of the Eggs of This Family
    ACTA ENTOMOLOGICA MUSEI NATIONALIS PRAGAE Published 30.vi.2010 Volume 50(1), pp. 75–95 ISSN 0374-1036 The external morphology of eggs of three Rhopalidae species (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) with a review of the eggs of this family Jitka VILÍMOVÁ & Markéta ROHANOVÁ Charles University, Faculty of Science, Department of Zoology, Viničná 7, CZ-128 44 Praha 2, Czech Republic; e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract. The external morphology of eggs and manner of oviposition of three rhopalid species, Brachycarenus tigrinus (Schilling, 1829), Chorosoma schillingi (Schilling, 1829) and Rhopalus (Aeschyntelus) maculatus (Fieber, 1837) are described. The eggs were studied using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and the results complete previous observations.The emphasis of the study is on the characteristics of eggs and details of oviposition in representatives of the family Rhopalidae. The chorionic origin of attachment stalk was confi rmed only in the Chorosomatini. A completely smooth egg chorion was recognized in R. (A.) maculatus, as a unique condition within at least the Pentatomomorpha. Key words. Rhopalidae, Rhopalini, Chorosomatini, Brachycarenus tigrinus, Cho- rosoma schillingi, Rhopalus (Aeschyntelus) maculatus, egg structure, micropylar processes, chorion, attachment stalk, oviposition Introduction Heteroptera eggs have a stable shape due to a sclerotized chorion. Egg morphology is helpful for taxonomic and phylogenetic purposes. The morphology of heteropteran eggs varies distinctly among taxa; for details see two monographs: SOUTHWOOD (1956) and COB- BEN (1968). Both authors mentioned that the eggs of the coreoid family Rhopalidae have a specifi c morphological pattern (e.g. two micropylar processes). COBBEN (1968) not only compared the morphology of heteropteran eggs but made phylogenetic inferences from their important characters.

  • Catalogo De Los Coreoidea (Heteroptera) De Nicaragua

GOELLNER-SCHEIDING.** RESUMEN En este catálogo presentamos las 54 especies de Coreidae, 4 de Alydidae y 12 de Rhopalidae reportados de Nicaragua, con sus plantas hospederas y enemigos naturales conocidos. ABSTRACT This catalog presents the 54 species of Coreidae, 4 of Alydidae and 12 of Rhopalidae presently known from Nicaragua, with host plants and natural enemies. file:///C|/My%20Documents/REVISTA/REV%2025/25%20Coreoidea.htm (1 of 22) [10/11/2002 05:49:48 p.m.] Rev * Museo Entomológico, S.E.A., A.P. 527, León, Nicaragua. ** Museum für Naturkunde der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Zoologisches Museum und Institut für Spezielle Zoologie, Invalidenstr. 43, O-1040 Berlin, Alemaña. INTRODUCCION Los Coreoidea son representados en Nicaragua por solo tres familias: Coreidae, Alydidae y Rhopalidae. Son en general fitófagos y a veces de importancia económica, atacando algunos cultivos. Morfológicamente pueden identificarse por presentar los siguientes caracteres: antenas de 4 segmentos, presencia de ocelos, labio de 4 segmentos, membrana de las alas anteriores con numerosas venas. Los Coreidae se caracterizan por un tamaño mediano a grande, en general mayor de un centímetro. Los fémures posteriores son a veces engrosados y las tibias posteriores a veces parecen pedazos de hojas, de donde deriva el nombre común en Nicaragua "chinches patas de hojas". Los Alydidae son alargados, delgados, con cabeza ancha y las ninfas ocasionalmente son miméticas de hormigas. Son especies de tamaño mediano, generalmente mayor de un centímetro. Los Rhopalidae son chinches pequeñas, muchas veces menores de un centímetro y con la membrana habitualmente con venación reducida.

Arthropods serve this purpose because they are abundant and diverse in urban areas, and relatively easy to collect. Over seven years, in the Central Arizona Phoenix area, arthropod communities in three urban habitat categories were collected and compared to arthropods in natural desert using pitfall traps and non-parametric analyses.

  • Natural Selection and Maladaptive Plasticity in the Red-Shouldered Soapberry Bug

The copyright holder for this preprint (which was not certified by peer review) is the author/funder, who has granted bioRxiv a license to display the preprint in perpetuity. It is made available under aCC-BY-NC 4.0 International license. 1 Natural selection and maladaptive plasticity in the red-shouldered soapberry bug 2 Author: M L Cenzer1* 3 4 Affiliation: 5 1 University of California, Davis 6 *Correspondence to [email protected] 7 8 Abstract 9 Natural selection and phenotypic plasticity can both produce locally differentiated phenotypes, 10 but novel environments or gene combinations can produce plasticity that works in opposition to 11 adaptive change. The red-shouldered soapberry bug (Jadera haematoloma) was locally adapted 12 to feed on the seeds of an introduced and a native host plant in Florida in the 1980s. By 2014, 13 local differentiation was lost and replaced by phenotypically similar populations all adapted to 14 the introduced host, likely as a result of gene flow. Here, I quantify the effects of these two host 15 plants on individual performance, natural selection, and phenotypic plasticity. I find that the seed 16 coat and seedpod of the native host have strong negative effects on juvenile survival and adult 17 reproduction compared to the introduced host. I find support for the hypothesis that the seedpod 18 is driving diversifying natural selection on beak length, which was previously locally adapted 19 between hosts. I also find maladaptive plasticity induced by host plant: bugs develop beak 20 lengths that are mismatched with the seedpod size of the host they are reared on.
