A checklist of Euglossini in Ecuador is given, including all currently described, valid species collected until 2018. The list has been assembled from museum records, fieldwork cited herein, and literature. The former species lists are nearly doubled here, with 1 Aglae, 23 Eufriesea, 68 Euglossa, 18 Eulaema, and 5 Exaerete, 115 in total with >50 new records for the country. Distribution and collection data are included, and some doubtful species are discussed. The Amazon region is the most species rich area but not necessarily a natural pattern, perhaps due to uneven sampling effort across the country. Southern Ecuador is relatively little sampled.
给出了厄瓜多尔Euglossini的清单,包括目前描述的所有有效物种,直到2018年收集。这份名单是根据博物馆记录、本文引用的实地调查和文献整理而成的。以前的物种列表在这里几乎翻了一番,有1种阿格拉属、23种欧舌兰属、68种舌兰属、18种欧舌草属和5种Exaerete,总共115种,该国有50多项新记录。包括分布和采集数据,并对一些可疑物种进行了讨论。亚马逊地区是物种最丰富的地区,但不一定是自然模式,可能是由于全国各地的采样工作不均衡。厄瓜多尔南部的样本相对较少。

Ectatomma tuberculatumhas one of the most toxic venoms known among ants but there is no detailed study on its characteristics. In light of this, knowing the venom’s chemical composition is of paramount importance in order to obtain information about the mechanisms of its components. Several bioactive molecules have already been identified in Hymenoptera venoms, i.e., proteins such as phospholipases, hyaluronidases, and proteinases, as well as peptides. Protein databases show that information on protein components of ant venoms has been recently growing exponentially. In this study, we have identified proteins from the venom ofEctatomma tuberculatumby means of 2D PAGE, followed by tandem nanochromatography with mass spectrometry. A total of 48 proteins were identified, of which 42 are involved in metabolic processes, transport, and structural support. Moreover, six of them show similarity with not yet characterized proteins. Nine proteins are related to the attack/defense or maintenance process of the colony (colony asepsis, conservation of venom constituents, venom diffusion on prey, paralysis of prey, alteration of homeostasis, and cellular toxicity). Our findings may contribute to the identification of new natural prototypes of molecules to be synthesized and used in several areas of pharmacology.
疣外圆虫是已知的蚂蚁中毒性最强的毒液之一,但目前还没有对其特征进行详细研究。有鉴于此,了解毒液的化学成分对于获得有关其成分机制的信息至关重要。在膜翅目毒液中已经鉴定出几种生物活性分子,即磷脂酶、透明质酸酶、蛋白酶以及肽等蛋白质。蛋白质数据库显示,有关毒液蛋白质成分的信息最近呈指数级增长。在本研究中,我们通过2D PAGE,然后通过串联纳米色谱和质谱法从结核杆菌毒液中鉴定了蛋白质。共鉴定出48种蛋白质,其中42种参与代谢过程、转运和结构支持。此外,其中6个与尚未鉴定的蛋白质显示出相似性。九种蛋白质与菌落的攻击/防御或维持过程有关(菌落无菌、毒液成分的保存、毒液在猎物身上的扩散、猎物的麻痹、体内平衡的改变和细胞毒性)。我们的发现可能有助于鉴定新的天然分子原型,这些原型将被合成并用于药理学的几个领域。

Honeybee defensive behaviour is an important trait for selection of honeybees for breeding programs. We evaluated the variation in honeybee defensive behaviour with environmental factors and hive conditions. Factors such as the difference in the agro-ecological zones, colony strength, mean elevation, type of bee hive used, and the vegetation cover were considered. The number of honeybees attacking the researchers’ protective gear within one minute of disturbance was recorded per colony and analyzed. Apis m. adansonii was found to be the most defensive. Variations in the agro-ecological zones, colony strength, and mean elevation were found to significantly influence the defensive behaviour of the honeybees. Honeybee colonies in the Mid North AEZ were the most defensive. The type of bee hive and vegetation cover did not have any influence on the defensive behaviour. From this study, we suggest that selection of honeybees that are less defensive for breeding programs should consider A. m. scutellata and honeybee colonies from West Nile and Southern Highland AEZs at higher elevations.
蜜蜂的防御行为是为育种计划选择蜜蜂的一个重要特征。我们评估了蜜蜂防御行为随环境因素和蜂箱条件的变化。考虑了农业生态区的差异、群落强度、平均海拔、使用的蜂箱类型和植被覆盖等因素。记录并分析了每个蜂群在受到干扰后一分钟内攻击研究人员防护装备的蜜蜂数量。阿提斯·m·阿丹索尼被认为是最具防御力的。农业生态区、蜂群强度和平均海拔的变化对蜜蜂的防御行为有显著影响。中北部AEZ的蜜蜂群落防御能力最强。蜂箱类型和植被覆盖对防御行为没有任何影响。根据这项研究,我们建议,选择对繁殖计划防御能力较弱的蜜蜂时,应考虑来自西尼罗河和南部高地海拔较高的AEZ的A.m.scutellata和蜂群。

Species previously attributed to Necrotauliidae are revised from the Late Triassic and Early Jurassic of England based on examination of type specimens and non-type material. The necrotauliids have been considered as a basal family of caddisflies (Trichoptera) or as a paraphyletic assemblage of stem-amphiesmenopterans. Herein a new genus, Austaulius, is erected which includes all Lilstock Formation Lower Lias material from England; the previously described species are synonymized with A. furcatus and a new species, A. haustrum, is described from the Dorset Coast, the holotype of which preserves synapomorphic traits of the Trichoptera not previously described suggesting that the family is trichopteran. The type genus remains Necrotaulius and type species N. parvulus (Geinitz, 1884) from the type locality of Dobbertin, Germany. One species of Necrotaulius is represented in the UK, N. parvulus, which is found in the Upper Lias.
根据对模式标本和非模式材料的检查,对英格兰三叠纪晚期和侏罗纪早期的坏死牛科物种进行了修订。坏死灰蝶类被认为是毛翅目(Trichoptera)的一个基础科,或是茎两栖类的一个副系组合。本文建立了一个新属Austaulius,它包含了所有来自英国的Lilstock Formation Lower Lias材料;先前描述的物种与A.furcatus同义,多塞特海岸描述了一个新物种A.haustrum,其正模保留了毛翅目的突触形态特征,这表明该科是毛翅目。模式属保留了Nectaulius和模式种N.parvulus(Geinitz,1884),来自德国多伯坦的模式地区。坏死牛属的一种在英国有代表性,即细小猪笼草,发现于上利亚斯。

In lowland areas of the world and high-altitude European mountains, the species compositions, body sizes, and wing forms of carabid beetles are known to change according to vegetation structures. However, little is known regarding the assemblage structure and habitat associations of carabid beetles in Japanese alpine-subalpine areas. We surveyed carabid beetles in four habitats (snow beds, alpine meadows, Pinus scrub, and fell-fields) in the alpine-subalpine zone on Mt. Hakusan, Japan. We surveyed carabid beetles six times between mid-July and late September. Nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) and analysis of similarities (ANOSIM) revealed three distinct carabid beetle assemblages in snow beds and alpine meadows, Pinus scrub, and fell-fields. The carabid beetle assemblages in the four habitats consisted predominantly of small and/or wingless species with differential spatiotemporal variability in abundance. Biota-environment (BIO-ENV) analyses showed that the percentage coverage by Pinus scrub, soil water content, and ground surface temperature were among the most significant variables affecting carabid beetle compositions. Given their small sizes and reduced wings, which are characteristic traits for limited mobility, and high-level habitat specificity, carabid beetles in the alpine-subalpine zone may serve as an important target group to monitor the impacts of global environmental change on mountain ecosystems.
在世界低地和欧洲高海拔山区,已知甲虫的物种组成、体型和翅膀形状会随着植被结构的变化而变化。然而,对于日本高山亚高山地区的甲虫群落结构和栖息地组合知之甚少。我们调查了日本箱山高山亚高山地带的四个栖息地(雪床、高山草甸、松灌丛和秋田)的甲甲虫。我们在7月中旬至9月下旬对甲虫进行了六次调查。非度量多维标度(NMDS)和相似性分析(ANOSIM)揭示了雪床和高山草甸、松灌丛和秋季田地中三种不同的甲甲虫组合。四个栖息地的甲甲虫群落主要由小型和/或无翼物种组成,其丰度在时空上存在差异。生物群落环境(BIO-ENV)分析表明,松灌丛覆盖率、土壤含水量和地表温度是影响金龟甲成分的最显著变量。鉴于其体型小、翅膀缩小(这是行动能力有限的特征)和高水平的栖息地特异性,高山亚高山地区的甲甲虫可能成为监测全球环境变化对山区生态系统影响的重要目标群体。

Native parasitoids may play an important role in biological control. They may either support or hinder the effectiveness of introduced nonnative parasitoids released for pest control purposes. Results of a three-year survey (2011–2013) of the Asian chestnut gall wasp (ACGW) Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) populations and on parasitism rates by native indigenous parasitoids (a complex of chalcidoid hymenopterans) in Italian chestnut forests are given. Changes in D. kuriphilus gall size and phenology were observed through the three years of study. A total of 13 species of native parasitoids were recorded, accounting for fluctuating parasitism rates. This variability in parasitism rates over the three years was mainly due to the effect of Torymus flavipes (Walker) (Hymenoptera: Torymidae), which in 2011 accounted for 75% of all parasitoid specimens yet decreased drastically in the following years. This strong fluctuation may be related to climatic conditions. Besides, our data verified that parasitoids do not choose host galls based on their size, though when they do parasitize smaller ones, they exploit them better. Consequently, ACGWs have higher chances of surviving parasitism if they are inside larger galls.
乡土拟寄生物在生物防治中可能发挥重要作用。它们可能支持或阻碍为防治害虫而引入的外来拟寄生虫的有效性。对意大利板栗林板栗瘿蜂(ACGW)进行了为期3年(2011-2013年)的种群调查,并对板栗瘿蜂(膜翅目:姬蜂科)的寄生率进行了调查。通过3年的研究,观察了枇杷瘿大小和物候的变化。共记录到13种本地寄生蜂,说明寄生蜂的寄生率波动较大。三年间寄生性的变化主要是由于黄托蝇(Torymus flavipes)(膜翅目:托蝇科)的影响,2011年黄托蝇占所有寄生性昆虫标本的75%,但随后几年急剧下降。这种强烈的波动可能与气候条件有关。此外,我们的数据证实,寄生蜂不会根据寄主的大小来选择寄主的胆囊,尽管当它们寄生在较小的胆囊时,它们会更好地利用它们。因此,如果ACGWs寄生在较大的胆囊内,它们存活的机会就会更高。

Evidence for Interspecific Brood Parasite Detection and Removal in Burying Beetles 埋葬甲虫种间繁殖体寄生虫检测和清除的证据

We tested whether brood parasitism could be successful between two co-occurring species of burying beetles, Nicrophorus guttula and Nicrophorus marginatus, and whether these species exhibit an adaptive response to brood parasitism by detecting and removing parasites. We cross-fostered larvae between broods of the two species and created mixed-species broods to simulate the addition of brood parasites. Brood parasites survived in both species’ broods. Nicrophorus marginatus culled 86% of brood parasites compared to 56% of their own larvae, and N. guttula culled 50% of brood parasites compared to 22% of their own larvae. Additionally, N. guttula brood parasites were significantly smaller than N. guttula that were raised by N. guttula parents, but N. marginatus brood parasites were significantly larger than N. marginatus that were raised by N. marginatus parents. This paper provides the first evidence that burying beetles can discriminate between their own larvae and other species’ larvae. We suggest that brood parasitism may be the selective force responsible for this ability.
我们测试了两种同时存在的埋葬甲虫——疣状小蠊和边缘小蠊——之间的窝寄生是否成功,以及这些物种是否通过检测和清除寄生虫对窝寄生表现出适应性反应。我们在两个物种的窝中交叉培育幼虫,并创建混合物种的窝,以模拟添加窝寄生虫。在这两个物种的窝中,繁殖寄生虫都存活了下来。边缘Nicrophorus marginatus扑杀了86%的孵化寄生虫,而它们自己的幼虫只有56%,而N.guttula扑杀了50%的孵化寄生虫。此外,喉舌猪笼草的幼虫寄生虫明显小于喉舌猪圈草父母饲养的喉舌猪笼,但边缘猪笼草幼虫寄生虫明显大于边缘猪笼草属父母饲养的边缘猪笼菜。这篇论文首次证明埋葬甲虫可以区分自己的幼虫和其他物种的幼虫。我们认为,窝寄生可能是导致这种能力的选择性力量。

Insects that live in the saltwater and brackish marshes, which fringe the northern coast of the Gulf of Mexico, are largely unstudied. During 2011–2013, a survey of insect fauna of the coastal salt marshes of the Mississippi Delta in Louisiana was conducted. We present the species of terrestrial representatives of Heteroptera and Auchenorrhyncha collected during that study. The Auchenorrhyncha are represented by 33 species in 6 families, with Cicadellidae (16 species) and Delphacidae (13 spp.), and are the most diverse. The terrestrial heteropterans are represented by 11 species in 5 families with the majority of species in Miridae (6 spp.). A list of species, annotated with numbers of specimens collected, ranges of collection dates (seasonality), and published information on their hosts, habitats, and ranges, is presented. Of 44 identified species, ten species (22.7%) are reported from Louisiana for the first time. The paper provides evidence of a diverse terrestrial arthropod community in brackish marshes; a community that is largely understudied.
生活在墨西哥湾北部海岸边缘的盐水和半咸水沼泽中的昆虫基本上没有研究。2011-2013年间,对路易斯安那州密西西比三角洲沿海盐沼的昆虫区系进行了调查。我们介绍了在该研究期间收集的异翅目和Auchenorhryncha的陆地代表物种。Auchenorhryncha有6科33种,其中Cicadellidae(16种)和Delphacidae(13种)最为多样。陆生异翅目有5科11种,其中大多数属于Miridae(6种)。本文提供了一份物种清单,附有采集标本的数量、采集日期的范围(季节性)以及已公布的宿主、栖息地和范围信息。在44个已确认的物种中,有10个物种(22.7%)是首次从路易斯安那州报告的。这篇论文提供了证据,证明在微咸水沼泽中有一个多样化的陆生节肢动物群落;在很大程度上研究不足的社区。

OX513A Aedes aegypti is a genetically engineered strain carrying a self-limiting gene. Studies in several countries have shown the effectiveness of the strain at reducing pest Aedes aegypti populations. As a component of biosafety assessments relevant to Indian environments, OX513A and two Indian wild-type Ae. aegypti strains (from Aurangabad and Delhi) were tested for susceptibility to a range of commonly used insecticides in India, such as dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), malathion, deltamethrin, and permethrin using World Health Organization (WHO) testing kits and following WHO standard test procedures. Knockdown times (KDT) for all compounds were determined separately for male and female adults of the three mosquito strains. Results indicated that adults of OX513A, Aurangabad, and Delhi strains were resistant to DDT, yielding mortality rates of 90.9, 87.4, and 44.4% and 70.1, 3.0, and 6.0% for male and female adults, respectively. In contrast, adults of all three strains were found to be susceptible to malathion, deltamethrin, and permethrin, exhibiting mortalities between 98 and 100%. The magnitudes of susceptibility, based on the KDT50 values, were greater in the OX513A strain, as compared to wild-type strains of Ae. aegypti for all insecticides tested. The results confirm that, aside from historical resistance to DDT, OX513A has retained full sensitivity to these commonly used compounds and exhibits responses akin to those of susceptible Indian wild-type strains.
OX513A埃及伊蚊是一种携带自我限制基因的基因工程菌株。几个国家的研究表明,该菌株在减少有害的埃及伊蚊种群方面是有效的。作为与印度环境相关的生物安全评价的一个组成部分,OX513A和两个印度野生型伊蚊。使用世界卫生组织(世卫组织)的检测试剂盒并按照世卫组织的标准测试程序,对埃及伊蚊菌株(来自奥兰加巴德和德里)对印度一系列常用杀虫剂(如二氯二苯三氯乙烷(滴滴涕)、马拉硫磷、溴氰菊酯和氯菊酯)的敏感性进行了测试。分别测定了三种蚊种成虫对所有化合物的敲除时间(KDT)。结果表明,OX513A、奥兰加巴德和德里品系成虫对滴滴涕有抗性,雌雄成虫死亡率分别为90.9%、87.4和44.4%,分别为70.1、3.0和6.0%。相比之下,这三种品系的成虫对马拉硫磷、溴氰菊酯和氯菊酯敏感,死亡率在98%至100%之间。根据KDT50值,与野生型伊蚊相比,OX513A菌株的敏感性更大。对所有杀虫剂检测埃及伊蚊。结果证实,除了对DDT的历史抗性外,OX513A对这些常用化合物保持了完全的敏感性,并表现出与敏感的印度野生型菌株相似的反应。
