Two-dimensional materials (2DMs) exhibited great potential for applications in materials science, energy storage, environmental science, biomedicine, sensors/biosensors, and others due to their unique physical, chemical, and biological properties. In this review, we present recent advances in the fabrication of 2DM-based electrochemical sensors and biosensors for applications in food safety and biomolecular detection that are related to human health. For this aim, firstly, we introduced the bottom-up and top-down synthesis methods of various 2DMs, such as graphene, transition metal oxides, transition metal dichalcogenides, MXenes, and several other graphene-like materials, and then we demonstrated the structure and surface chemistry of these 2DMs, which play a crucial role in the functionalization of 2DMs and subsequent composition with other nanoscale building blocks such as nanoparticles, biomolecules, and polymers. Then, the 2DM-based electrochemical sensors/biosensors for the detection of nitrite, heavy metal ions, antibiotics, and pesticides in foods and drinks are introduced. Meanwhile, the 2DM-based sensors for the determination and monitoring of key small molecules that are related to diseases and human health are presented and commented on. We believe that this review will be helpful for promoting 2DMs to construct novel electronic sensors and nanodevices for food safety and health monitoring.

ABSTRACT Larvae of an undescribed gall midge were found feeding on the rust fungus Austropuccinia psidii that was infecting leaves of trees Lophomyrtus bullata, Lophomyrtus obcordata and Syzygium jambos (all Myrtaceae) in New Zealand. The new species belongs to a cosmopolitan, rust- and mildew-feeding genus Mycodiplosis (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae). The description of Mycodiplosis constricta sp. nov. includes morphology of adults, pupa and larva, and the sequence of a segment of the Cytochrome Oxidase unit I mitochondrial gene. The new species differs from its congeners in an unusual aedeagus and a peculiar male hypoproct. The aedeagus is rounded apically and strongly constricted subapically, bearing subapical setulose sensoria. The hypoproctal lobes are long and narrow, dorsally they are covered with long apical setulae, ventrally they are bare, each lobe bearing a pair of setae of which one is placed apically, the other subapically. The currently known geographical distribution of the new species is confined to the North Island of New Zealand. While it is likely that larvae of the new species decrease numbers of viable uredinia of Austropuccinia psidii, the exact impact of the new species on the population dynamics of the fungal host as a biological control agent and/or a transmission vector remain to be determined. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:3D39F717-49E0-4B46-9033-BE5A244D6A39

ABSTRACT The gut microbiome is an important component of bee health. Previous research around the globe indicated that bee gut microbiome can be affected by the presence of pathogens. We surveyed for the presence of three specific pathogens in populations of the buff-tailed bumble bee, Bombus terrestris (Linnaeus, 1758), across New Zealand. The pathogen Crithidia bombi was the most prevalent and widespread pathogen across the studied sites, with prevalence ranging from 30 to 100% of the bees examined. Nosema bombi was, however, only found in North Island sites. The Deformed wing virus was detected in bumble bees at all the sites except one (Twizel in the South Island) with prevalence ranging from 0 to 60%. The B. terrestris gut microbiome and the associated pathogens from two contrasting locations were studied. Bacteria such as Snodgrassella alvi and Lactobacillales were observed. We also found that infections with C. bombi were associated with more diverse, distinct gut microbiome perhaps indicating disruptions of gut microbe communities that contribute to impair bumble bees’ health.

ABSTRACT Millipedes are slow-moving soil organisms, which do not easily disperse to new habitats. However, species can be transported by humans across large distances and be found in anthropogenic habitats like botanical gardens and glasshouses. Thus, several millipede species have been introduced from around the world to Europe. Here we describe three new species of pinhead millipedes (Polyzoniida): Siphonethus dudleycookeorum sp. nov. from Great Britain with close affinities to specimens from New Zealand, and Siphonethus coxaespinosus sp. nov. and Siphonethus obtusus sp. nov. from Tawhiti Rahi (Poor Knights Islands) from New Zealand. Siphonethus dudleycookeorum sp. nov. was initially discovered in Lamorran House Gardens (Cornwall) in Great Britain and could be traced back to New Zealand with DNA-barcoding and comparison to specimens from the New Zealand Arthropod Collection (NZAC). As generic as well as species characters of the Siphonotidae Cook, 1895 are only poorly worked out, the placement of the new species in the only New Zealand genus Siphonethus Chamberlin, 1920 is provisional. Based on the available material and photographs of the holotypes of S. bellus Chamberlin, 1920 and S. enotatus Chamberlin, 1920, we suggest that the species currently classified as Siphonethus belong to at least two separate genera. It can be expected that New Zealand harbours a great diversity of undescribed polyzoniidan millipedes, as a lot of unsorted specimens are present in various collections and already material from the relatively small island Tawhiti Rahi has yielded two species new to science. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:6D3FF76F-16A2-43ED-B9CC-F34B4EBE7525 http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act:F59D9647-6F25-448F-AD36-DE9F86F187D6 http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act:A0718515-C5AE-4BE1-B32A-312FB66E9B5C http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act:3D4D8C0C-F30E-42B9-8CBD-E394C635FD87

ABSTRACT Visual observations for colonies of Aphis healyi Cottier on Carmichaelia odorata Benth. bushes and Schizaphis sp. indet. on Aciphylla aurea W.R.B. Oliv. shrubs were made over several seasons at usually 4- to 8-week intervals (but seldom over winter) at two South Island, New Zealand sites (420 and 880 m above sea level, respectively). The presence of aphid parasitoid mummies was also noted. On several occasions, aphid samples were taken to verify species and identify morphs. Both aphid species appear to be monoecious (i.e. not alternating between woody and herbaceous plant hosts), with A. healyi exhibiting cyclical parthenogenesis and overwintering as eggs (i.e. holocyclic) and Schizaphis sp. indet. exhibiting year round parthenogenesis and overwintering as active morphs (i.e. anholocyclic). Aphis healyi colonies were found from December to May with the greatest numbers of colonies being found from December to February. Schizaphis sp. indet. colonies were found throughout the year, including mid-winter, with the greatest numbers of colonies usually being found from October to December. Updated distribution data indicate that both species are more widespread than previously reported, with A. healyi found from the Poor Knights Islands in the north to Southland in the south, and the Schizaphis sp. indet. on Aciphylla spp. found throughout the South Island but not the North Island. This short communication adds population, ecological and biological knowledge on these relatively poorly understood endemic aphid species from New Zealand that informs their conservation status.

ABSTRACT This paper reports the true bugs (Heteroptera) collected during a large-scale study of saproxylic insects in exotic pine plantations in New Zealand, reared from Pinus radiata dead wood in the central North Island in 2009–2010. Although only seven species were collected in total, the observations of two flightless flat bug (Aradidae) species indicate that exotic pine forests may provide alternative habitat for dispersal-limited endemic forest invertebrates. An important finding is the first New Zealand record of the Australian aradid Glochocoris monteithi. Assuming this find represents the existence of an established local population, this would be only the third documented case of a flat bug successfully establishing in another major zoological realm.

ABSTRACT The New Zealand psyllid fauna is characterised by a large number of endemic Triozidae. These species have been subject to changes in generic placement through their taxonomic history. Powellia Maskell, 1879, has been considered by various authors as either a valid genus, or as a synonym of the cosmopolitan genus Trioza Foerster, 1848, including by Maskell himself. In this note, we review the taxonomic history of the species within this taxon, and discuss the morphological, genetic and ecological evidence for the recognition of Powellia Maskell, 1879, as a valid genus. Consequently, we establish the following New combinations: P. alseuosmiae (Tuthill, 1952), P. australis (Tuthill, 1952), P. compressa (Tuthill, 1952), P. crinita (Tuthill, 1952), P. dacrydii (Tuthill, 1952), P. dentiforceps (Dumbleton, 1967), P. discariae (Tuthill, 1952), P. flavida (Tuthill, 1952), P. gourlayi (Tuthill, 1952), P. hebicola (Tuthill, 1952), P. latiforceps (Tuthill, 1952), P. obscura (Tuthill, 1952), P. parvipennis (Tuthill, 1952), P. schefflericola (Tuthill, 1952), P. scobina (Tuthill, 1952), P. subvexa (Tuthill, 1952), all from Trioza. A further two species, T. adventicia Tuthill, 1952 and T. curta (Ferris & Klyver, 1932) are retained in Trioza.

Consequently, we establish the following New combinations: P. alseuosmiae (Tuthill, 1952), P. australis (Tuthill, 1952), P. compressa (Tuthill, 1952), P. crinita (Tuthill, 1952), P. dacrydii (Tuthill, 1952), P. dentiforceps (Dumbleton, 1967), P. discariae (Tuthill, 1952), P. flavida (Tuthill, 1952), P. gourlayi (Tuthill, 1952), P. hebicola (Tuthill, 1952), P. latiforceps (Tuthill, 1952), P. obscura (Tuthill, 1952), P. parvipennis (Tuthill, 1952), P. schefflericola (Tuthill, 1952), P. scobina (Tuthill, 1952), P. subvexa (Tuthill, 1952), all from Trioza. A further two species, T. adventicia Tuthill, 1952 and T. curta (Ferris & Klyver, 1932) are retained in Trioza.","PeriodicalId":19185,"journal":{"name":"New Zealand Entomologist","volume":"44 1","pages":"9 - 14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00779962.2021.1891849","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49505893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT The tomato red spider mite Tetranychus evansi was detected for the first time in New Zealand in May 2020. There is an urgent need for rapid and accurate diagnostic tools on this species. In order to meet this demand, we developed methods for identification of T. evansi in the field and laboratory based on damage symptoms, morphological characters and DNA sequences. To distinguish T. evansi from the previously recorded species a key to all species of Tetranychus in New Zealand is provided. DNA barcoding employing the mitochondrial COI gene enabled us to differentiate T. evansi from closely related species.

ABSTRACT Empidadelpha pokekeao sp. nov. (Empididae: Empidinae) is described from male specimens collected in native forest at Sullivan’s Dam, Dunedin, New Zealand and in snow tussock at Macraes Flat, New Zealand. The species is distinguished from other species of Empidadelpha by the colouration of the body and legs, the remarkable length of the male antenna, and the distinctively darkened wings with a large dark cloud anteroapically. The two only other New Zealand species of this genus, E. propria Collin, 1928 and E. torrentalis Miller, 1923, were also examined and are discussed here.
