Abstract
Abstract. This study contributes to knowledge of the biodiversity of curculionids associated with Larrea tridentata (Sessé & Moc. Ex DC) at Miquihuana, Tamaulipas. The plant is almost intrinsic to the landscape of xerophilous shrubland of northern Mexico. Using a beat-sheet, a total of 89 adults was collected; seven species in the Entiminae subfamily were identified. Ophryastes sordidus LeConte, O. huachucae (Van Dyke), Pantomorus albosignatus (Boheman), Sapotes setosus Jones and O´Brien, S. puncticollis Casey, and Isodacrys fasciatum Cortés-Hernández were first recorded at Tamaulipas. The most abundant species (84%) was P. albosignatus (Boheman) that is endemic to and widely distributed in Mexico.
期刊介绍:
Manuscripts submitted for consideration for publication in the Southwestern Entomologist should report results of entomological research in the southwestern United States or Mexico or should report results of studies on entomological species, relevant to this region, which may be done elsewhere, provided such results are geographically applicable. Manuscripts that report results of routine laboratory or field experiments for which the primary purpose is gathering baseline data or those that report results of a continuous evaluation program such as preliminary pesticide evaluation experiments, species lists with no supporting biological data, or preliminary plant resistance evaluations are not acceptable. However, reports of experiments with insecticides, acaricides, and microbials are acceptable if they are comprehensive and include data related to economics, resistance, toxicology, or other broad subject areas. Bibliographies will not be published in Southwestern Entomologist.
