ABSTRACT: Nesting, prey transportation mechanisms, and host preference are described for two Neotropical pompilid wasp species: Anoplius sp. and Anoplius triquetrus (Fox). Observations were made in a restinga area, in Regência district, Espírito Santo state, Brazil. Several Anoplius sp. individuals were observed foraging in small patches of vegetation along a beach, whereas A. triquetrus was observed and subsequently caught carrying a Psauridae spider into a nest on a sandy trail in a restinga forest. This is the first behavioral record for the genus Anoplius in South America. Finally, we formally move Psammochares triquetra (Fox) to the Anoplius subgenus Notiochares Banks.
摘要/ ABSTRACT摘要:研究了新热带地区两种pompilid黄蜂:Anoplius sp.和Anoplius triquetrus (Fox)的筑巢、猎物运输机制和寄主偏好。在巴西Espírito圣州Regência区的一个休息区进行了观察。在海滩边的小块植被中,观察到几只无尾猿在觅食,而在休息的森林里,观察到a . triquetrus随后将一只棘蛛带到一个沙质小径上的巢中。这是南美洲第一份关于阿努普乌斯属的行为记录。最后,我们正式将Psammochares triquetra (Fox)移至Anoplius Notiochares Banks亚属。

ABSTRACT: The red cotton bug, Dysdercus koenigii F. (Hemiptera: Pyrrhocoridae) is a destructive pest of cotton in the cotton belt region of Pakistan. This pest attacks the cotton bolls, mature cotton seeds and causes serious damage to premature bolls. A trial was conducted under laboratory conditions to check the predatory potential of A. coquebertii on different stages of D. koenigii. Four stages of D. koenigii i.e. 3rd, 4th, 5th nymphal instars and adults were provided to A. coquebertii adults to check their survival, fecundity response and feeding potential. Results were statistically significant when comparing feeding preferences of A. coquebertii on different stages of D. koenigii. Adult male and female longevity of A. coquebertii was significantly higher when these insects were fed with 3rd instar nymphs of D. koenigii, which was 115.25 ± 6.91 and 88.75 ± 4.64 days, respectively. Maximum egg laying percentage of 34% was recorded on medium 3 and minimum egg laying percentage of 16% was recorded on medium 2. Based on the results of this study, survival and fecundity rate of A. coquebertii can be highly affected when the suitable stage of D. koenigii is not present.
摘要/ ABSTRACT摘要:巴基斯坦棉区红棉螟(Dysdercus koenigii F.)是一种危害棉花的害虫。这种害虫侵害棉铃和成熟棉籽,对早铃造成严重损害。在实验室条件下,研究了coquebertii对不同阶段柯尼氏夜蛾的捕食潜力。用3、4、5期科尼氏夜蛾若虫和成虫分别饲喂科尼氏夜蛾成虫,测定其成虫的成虫存活率、繁殖力和取食潜力。对不同阶段柯尼氏夜蛾的取食偏好进行比较,结果具有统计学意义。与科尼氏夜蛾3龄若虫同食可显著提高coquebertii成虫的雄、雌寿命,分别为115.25±6.91天和88.75±4.64 d。培养基3的产蛋率最高为34%,培养基2的产蛋率最低为16%。根据本研究结果,当科尼氏夜蛾的适宜期不存在时,coquebertii的存活率和繁殖率会受到严重影响。

ABSTRACT: Industrial hemp was found to support a diverse complex of arthropods in surveys of fields in eastern Colorado. In 2016-2018, surveys of industrial hemp in eight eastern Colorado counties, eighty families of arthropods were collected, primary taxa in the orders Diptera, Coleoptera, and Hemiptera. The arthropods collected from hemp included herbivores, natural enemies, pollen feeders, and incidental species. Hemp cultivars grown for seed and fiber had higher insect species richness compared to hemp grown for cannabidiol (CBD). Species that were observed to cause economic damage included: corn earworm, (Helicoverpa zea Boddie), hemp russet mite (Aculops cannibicola Farkas), cannabis aphid (Phorodon cannabis Passerini), and Eurasian hemp borer (Grapholita delineana Walker). In addition, serious damage to hemp plants was observed by grasshoppers, particularly the twostriped grasshopper, Melanoplus bivittatus Say, and the differential grasshopper, M. differentialis Thomas. This survey serves as the first checklist of arthropods associated with industrial hemp in any area of North America.
摘要:在美国科罗拉多州东部的田野调查中发现,工业大麻支持多种节肢动物。2016-2018年,对美国科罗拉多州东部8个县的工业大麻进行调查,共收集到节肢动物80科,主要类群为双翅目、鞘翅目和半翅目。麻中节肢动物包括食草动物、天敌、花粉食用者和附带种。以种子和纤维为目的种植的大麻品种比以大麻二酚(CBD)为目的种植的大麻品种具有更高的昆虫物种丰富度。造成经济损失的主要有:玉米耳虫(Helicoverpa zea Boddie)、麻褐螨(Aculops cannibicola Farkas)、大麻蚜虫(Phorodon cannabis Passerini)和麻螟虫(Grapholita delineana Walker)。此外,以双条纹蚱蜢(Melanoplus bivittatus Say)和差异蚱蜢(M. differentialis Thomas)为代表的蚱蜢对大麻植株的危害也比较严重。这项调查是北美任何地区与工业大麻有关的节肢动物的第一个清单。

ABSTRACT: New geographical records of zoological species are often discovered through processing undetermined specimens. Here, new records of five native species of lady beetles (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) are reported for the central United States based on processing previously undetermined material from entomological collections: Cephaloscymnus laevis Gordon, Hyperaspidius insignis Casey, Hyperaspis punctata LeConte, Hippodamia apicalis Casey, and Anatis lecontei Casey. The new record for C. laevis represents a considerable range extension northward, whereas records for the other four species denote relatively minor geographic range extensions. These findings support the notion that systematic processing of undetermined collection material will yield new insights into the geographic ranges of various zoological species and improve understanding of biodiversity.
摘要:动物物种的新地理记录往往是通过处理未确定的标本而发现的。在这里,根据对昆虫学收藏中先前未确定的材料的处理,报告了美国中部五种本土瓢虫(鞘翅目:瓢虫科)的新记录:头甲(Cephaloscymnus laevis-Gordon)、盾甲(Hyperaspidius insignis Casey)、斑甲(Hyperascis punctata LeConte)、尖甲(Hippodamia apicalis Casey。laevis的新记录代表了向北的相当大的范围扩展,而其他四个物种的记录则代表了相对较小的地理范围扩展。这些发现支持了这样一种观点,即对未确定的采集材料进行系统处理将对各种动物物种的地理范围产生新的见解,并提高对生物多样性的理解。

Abstract: Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) play an important role in the sense of smell in parasitoid wasps, especially for locating hosts and mates. Clarifying the role of OBPs in information exchanges between parasitoid wasps and their environment is beneficial for understanding the sense of smell in parasitoid wasps. To this end, we cloned the OBPs, SsicOBP1 and SsicOBP2 (GenBank accession numbers: AKP80533.1 and AKP80534.1), of Scleroderma sichuanensis Xiao and then proceeded to conduct prokaryotic expression and qPCR analysis, and determine the binding capacity of SsicOBP1 and SsicOBP2 with 18 types of volatiles from Pinus massoniana Lambert using competitive binding (with 1-NPN as fluorescent probes). We found that SsicOBP1 and SsicOBP2 are expressed at high levels in the antennae of Scleroderma sichuanensis Xiao. Of the 18 types of P. massoniana volatiles, SsicOBP1 could bind effectively with ocimene (binding constant of 12.82 µM) and β-pinene (binding constant of 15.57 µM). SsicOBP2 could bind effectively with α-pinene (with a binding constant of 13.52 µM), ocimene (binding constant of 14.38 µM) and β-pinene (binding constant of 14.51 µM). From this, we could infer that SsicOBP1 and SsicOBP2 are general odorant-binding proteins, which play an important role in sensing plant volatiles.
摘要/ Abstract摘要:气味结合蛋白(OBPs)在寄生蜂的嗅觉功能中起着重要的作用,特别是在定位寄主和配偶方面。阐明OBPs在寄生蜂与环境信息交换中的作用,有助于理解寄生蜂的嗅觉。为此,我们克隆了四川硬皮病萧的OBPs, SsicOBP1和SsicOBP2 (GenBank登录号:AKP80533.1和AKP80534.1),进行原核表达和qPCR分析,并采用竞争结合(以1-NPN为荧光探针)测定了SsicOBP1和SsicOBP2与马尾松18种挥发物的结合能力。我们发现SsicOBP1和SsicOBP2在四川硬皮病小虫的触角中高水平表达。在18种马尾草挥发物中,SsicOBP1能与辛烯(结合常数为12.82µM)和β-蒎烯(结合常数为15.57µM)有效结合。sicobp2能与α-蒎烯(结合常数为13.52µM)、辛烯(结合常数为14.38µM)和β-蒎烯(结合常数为14.51µM)有效结合。由此我们可以推断,SsicOBP1和SsicOBP2是一般的气味结合蛋白,在植物挥发物的感知中发挥重要作用。

ABSTRACT: Scent training and field detection trials were conducted to determine if honey bee (Apis mellifera) foraging behavior could be employed as a practical application in the location of vertebrate carrion. Resource recognition and querying trials consisted of two components. Honey bees were trained to associate chemical compounds found in decaying tissues with a high-quality food source via introduction of the compounds into a sugar solution. Randomized scented and non-scented sugar solution choices were subsequently provided to hived bees at varying distances within a rural outdoor study area. Following initial forager recruitment by scouts, twice the number of bees were observed feeding at carrion-scented stations. Additional field trials performed using wildlife carrion reinforced experimental results. Scent trained scout bees showed a marked interest in decomposing wildlife remains by aerially investigating and landing on the carrion. These findings demonstrate honey bee retention of carrion sensory recognition capabilities and support the crabronid wasp hypothesis of honey bee evolutionary origins. Applications for forensic remains detection, wildlife trafficking interdiction, and endangered species conservation are indicated.
摘要:通过嗅觉训练和现场检测试验,探讨蜜蜂觅食行为在脊椎动物腐肉定位中的实际应用价值。资源识别和查询试验由两个部分组成。蜜蜂经过训练,将腐烂组织中的化合物与高质量的食物来源联系起来,方法是将这些化合物引入糖溶液中。随后,在农村户外研究区域内,随机选择有香味和无香味的糖溶液提供给不同距离的蜂箱蜜蜂。在最初的觅食者被侦察兵招募之后,两倍数量的蜜蜂被观察到在腐肉气味的站点觅食。利用野生动物腐肉进行的额外现场试验加强了实验结果。经过嗅觉训练的侦察蜂通过空中调查和降落在腐肉上,对腐烂的野生动物遗体表现出了明显的兴趣。这些发现证明了蜜蜂保留了腐肉的感觉识别能力,并支持了蜜蜂进化起源的海蜂假说。应用于法医遗骸检测、野生动物走私拦截和濒危物种保护。

Abstract: The halictid bee fauna of the West Indies is poorly documented, especially for species of Lasioglossum Curtis, 1833. More information regarding the ranges and distributions of these species among the islands is needed for understanding historical biogeography and for bee conservation efforts. Here we report new distributional records in the U.S. and British Virgin Islands for three species of Lasioglossum: L. dispersum Gibbs, 2018, L. enatum Gibbs, 2018, and L. rufopanticis (Engel, 2001). We also provide information on new host-plant associations and describe specimens with atypical wing venation and unusual facial markings, which add to our understanding of basic biology and variation within species.
摘要:西印度群岛的卤蜂区系文献很少,尤其是Lasioglossum Curtis,1833年。为了了解历史生物地理学和蜜蜂保护工作,需要更多关于这些物种在岛屿之间的范围和分布的信息。在这里,我们报道了三种Lasioglossum在美国和英属维尔京群岛的新分布记录:L.dispersum-Gibbs,2018,L.enatum-Gibbs,2018和L.rufopanticis(Engel,2001)。我们还提供了关于新寄主植物组合的信息,并描述了具有非典型翼脉和不寻常面部标记的标本,这增加了我们对基本生物学和物种内变异的理解。

ABSTRACT: An agricultural field in southeastern Colorado grown under drip irrigation in 2014 allowed for observations related to the life history of immature stages of the asilid Diogmites angustipennis Loew. A survey of holes in the soil surface made during recent pupal eclosion provided an estimate that approximately 6,670 D. angustipennis/hectare had recently emerged at the site. The field had been in furrow irrigated field corn the previous three seasons indicating that larval stages of this species can develop sizable populations within cultivated fields. Larval prey were not observed, but the most abundant potential prey in this site would have been immature stages of diabroticine beetles.
摘要:2014年,科罗拉多州东南部的一块农田在滴灌条件下生长,可以观察到阿氏俾格米虫(Diogmites angustieennis Loew)未成熟阶段的生活史。在最近的蛹羽化过程中对土壤表面的洞进行的调查估计,该地点最近出现了大约6670只/公顷的角锥虫。前三个季节,该地一直是沟灌玉米地,这表明该物种的幼虫阶段可以在耕地中形成相当大的种群。没有观察到幼虫猎物,但该地点最丰富的潜在猎物可能是处于未成熟阶段的辉绿岩甲虫。

Abstract: Land conversion for human use poses one of the greatest threats to terrestrial ecosystems and causes habitat loss for a myriad of species. The development of large solar energy facilities and urban sprawl are converting wild lands in the Southwest deserts of the USA for human use and resulting in habitat loss for desert species. This is in part due to the Southwest deserts being identified as having high renewable energy potential while urban areas expand into areas supporting high biodiversity. Previous studies have quantified development within some of these biodiversity hotspots, but none have investigated direct species-specific habitat loss for different species of pollinators. Native bees are poorly studied, and therefore it is difficult to know how much habitat has been lost. We quantified the amount of land conversion occurring between 2010 and 2015 in Clark County, NV, Mojave County, AZ, and San Bernardino County, CA to assess direct loss of potential-habitat for species in the Southwest deserts. Using Satellite images, we quantified the direct habitat loss to solar facilities and estimated other land conversion due to urban sprawl using USDA land cover data. We created eco-niche models in MaxENT for ten Ashmeadiella bees, to estimate the amount of direct, potential-habitat loss caused by solar development and urban expansion. Our data suggest species are not equally affected by land conversion in the Southwest deserts and direct, potential-habitat loss to urban sprawl is much greater than the loss due to solar facilities. Furthermore, our data show each species incurs different amounts of habitat loss to both solar development and urban expansion as well as between counties. These results should assist in pollinator conservation program development by illustrating land conversion can vary between local governments and pollinator species.
摘要:人类土地利用是陆地生态系统面临的最大威胁之一,导致许多物种失去栖息地。大型太阳能设施的发展和城市扩张正在将美国西南部沙漠的荒地转化为人类使用,导致沙漠物种的栖息地丧失。这在一定程度上是由于西南沙漠被认为具有很高的可再生能源潜力,而城市地区则扩展到支持高生物多样性的地区。以前的研究已经量化了这些生物多样性热点地区的发展,但没有研究过不同种类传粉媒介的直接物种特异性栖息地丧失。对本地蜜蜂的研究很少,因此很难知道有多少栖息地已经丧失。我们量化了2010年至2015年间发生在内华达州克拉克县、亚利桑那州莫哈韦县和加利福尼亚州圣贝纳迪诺县的土地转换数量,以评估西南沙漠物种潜在栖息地的直接损失。利用卫星图像,我们量化了太阳能设施造成的直接栖息地损失,并利用美国农业部的土地覆盖数据估计了城市扩张导致的其他土地转化。我们在MaxENT中为10只Ashmeadiella蜜蜂创建了生态位模型,以估计太阳能开发和城市扩张造成的直接、潜在栖息地损失的数量。我们的数据表明,西南沙漠地区的物种受到土地转换的影响并不相同,城市扩张直接造成的潜在栖息地损失远远大于太阳能设施造成的损失。此外,我们的数据显示,由于太阳能开发和城市扩张以及县与县之间的差异,每个物种都会造成不同数量的栖息地损失。这些研究结果表明,不同的地方政府和不同的传粉媒介物种之间的土地转换可能会有所不同,从而有助于传粉媒介保护计划的制定。

ABSTRACT: The German cockroach, Blatella germanica, is a pest of human habitats distributed throughout the world. Boric acid (BA; H3BO3), in the form of powder, pellets, or blocks, has been used to control German cockroaches. Gel baits are also considered highly effective for controlling German cockroach populations. However, BA is not currently available as a gel bait. Thus, the present study was carried out to determine the best concentration of BA to formulate as a gel bait, and measure its direct effectiveness and the horizontal transfer of the active ingredient (AI) through cannibalism in adult German cockroaches (domino effect). Effectiveness of laboratory-prepared BA gel baits (lab baits) was analysed, and the efficacy and horizontal transfer of the most effective lab bait was compared to four commercial baits. Among three tested lab baits, the bait prepared with 40% BA (lab bait A) resulted in significantly greater cockroach mortality and a lower lethal time (LT50) value than other lab baits. When compared with commercial baits, there was no significant difference between lab bait A and BA baits in the amount of bait consumed and the detection time. Similarly, mortality of cockroaches caused by lab bait A was equal to mortality caused by the commercial BA bait. Percentage of bait unfed adult cockroaches killed by transferred BA from lab bait A fed and dead adult cockroaches (secondary mortality) was significantly greater than that caused by both commercial BA bait and fipronil bait.
摘要:德国小蠊是一种分布于世界各地的人类栖息地害虫。硼酸(BA;H3BO3),以粉末、颗粒或块的形式,已被用于控制德国蟑螂。凝胶诱饵也被认为对控制德国蟑螂种群非常有效。然而,BA目前还不能作为凝胶诱饵。因此,本研究旨在确定BA作为凝胶诱饵的最佳浓度,并测量其直接有效性和活性成分(AI)通过在成年德国蟑螂中自相残杀的水平转移(多米诺骨牌效应)。分析了实验室制备的BA凝胶诱饵(实验室诱饵)的有效性,并将最有效的实验室诱饵的有效性和水平转移与四种商业诱饵进行了比较。在三种测试的实验室诱饵中,用40%BA制备的诱饵(实验室诱饵A)比其他实验室诱饵导致显著更高的蟑螂死亡率和更低的致死时间(LT50)值。与商业诱饵相比,实验室诱饵A和BA诱饵在诱饵消耗量和检测时间方面没有显著差异。类似地,实验室诱饵A引起的蟑螂死亡率等于商业BA诱饵引起的蟑螂死亡。从实验室诱饵转移BA杀死的诱饵未喂食的成年蟑螂的百分比喂食和死亡的成年蟑螂(二次死亡率)显著大于商业BA诱饵和氟虫腈诱饵造成的百分比。
