The white mango scale insect (WMS), Aulacaspis tubercularis Newstead, 1906 is a key pest of mango in Ethiopia, which has been spreading throughout the country since its introduction in 2010. Evaluation of the efficacy of two systemic soil drenching insecticides (thiamethoxam 25 % WG and imidacloprid 35 % SC) independently, and in combination with tree management (pruning) for the control of the WMS was conducted under field conditions in western Ethiopia in two locations in 2018 and 2019. Randomized complete block designs with three replications were used for the experiments. In the first site, all treatments resulted in scale populations that were significantly lower than the control (1086 crawlers and females per leaf). Thiamethoxam 25 % WG at 12 g/tree + pruning resulted in the lowest number of the WMS after the second treatment (43.5 per leaf) followed by thiamethoxam 25 % WG at 18 g/tree + pruning, which was statistically similar. In the second site, imidacloprid 35 % SC + thiamethoxam 25 % WG at 18 g/tree + pruning, resulted in the lowest mean number of the WMS (31.1 per leaf) followed by thiamethoxam 25 % WG at 12 g/tree + pruning (61.4 per leaf). This treatment also gave the highest percentage reduction in number of the WMS compared to the WMS counting before treatment application. This study has shown that use of systemic insecticides and pruning are promising control tactics for the WMS. Cost implications and effects of the insecticides on the natural enemy complex and residual toxicity in fruits need to be evaluated.

the rosemary leaf Beetle (Chrysolina (Taeniochrysea) americana (linnaeus, 1758)) does not occur in americas, it was given this name erroneously. It is dis tributed around the mediterranean sea in southern europe, north africa, the near east and the middle east (Balachowsky 1963), although the only avail able records from the near east are from turkey (western and southwestern pro vinces) (gül Zümreoğlu 1972; Tuatay et al. 1972; Kısmalı 1973; Aslan et al. 2003). I failed to find any additional record of C. americana from the near east. C. americana is actively expanding its distribution to the north; it appeared in the UK in 1963, and is now considered to be established there (Johnson 1963; Halstead 1996; Barclay & Mann 2002; MacLeod 2002). In recent decades it has been recorded from Belgium, Germany, Switzerland (Kippenberg 2015), The Netherlands (Beenen & Winkelman 2001) and latvia (telnov et al. 1997; Bukejs & Telnov 2010). C. americana feeds and breeds mainly on the leaves of rose mary (Rosmarinus officinalis l.) and la ven der (Lavandula species), but also on thyme (Thymus spp.), sage (Salvia spp.), russian sage (Perovskia atriplicifolia Benth.), and possibly other plants in the Lamiaceae family (Balachowsky 1963; Bibolini 1964; Halstead 1996; Barclay & Mann 2002; MacLeod 2002; CABI 2016). C. americana is flightless and therefore restricted in its dispersal ability, but can be easily transported together with its host plants (MacLeod 2002). In the UK, C. americana is now considered a pest of la vender, rosemary and thyme (macleod 2002). the fauna of the Israeli Chrysomelinae (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) was sur veyed by friedman et al. (2005), summarizing around 80 years of intensive col lecting, based on the national Collection of Insects, the steinhardt museum of na tural History, Israel national Center for Biodiversity studies, Department of Zoo logy, tel aviv university (smnHtau). sixteen species of Chrysolina were re cor ded, not including C. americana. Chrysolina are mainly spectacular, large and colorful beetles, usually dwelling freely on their host plants (both larvae and adults), often easily collected or photographed by both professional and amateur en to mologists, and among the better studied and better known groups of beetles.
迷迭香叶甲虫(Chrysolina (Taeniochrysea) americana (linnaeus, 1758))并不出现在美洲，它被错误地赋予了这个名字。它分布在南欧、北非、近东和中东的地中海周围(Balachowsky 1963)，尽管近东的唯一可用记录来自土耳其(西部和西南部省份)(g - Zümreoğlu 1972;Tuatay et al. 1972;Kı从小型ı1973;Aslan et al. 2003)。我没能找到任何来自近东的美洲古猿的额外记录。C. americana积极向北扩展其分布;它于1963年在英国出现，现在被认为是在那里建立的(Johnson 1963;Halstead 1996;Barclay & Mann 2002;麦克劳德2002)。近几十年来，比利时、德国、瑞士(Kippenberg 2015)、荷兰(Beenen & Winkelman 2001)和拉脱维亚(telnov et al. 1997;Bukejs & Telnov 2010)。美洲大蠊主要以玫瑰(Rosmarinus officinalis l.)和薰衣草(Lavandula species)的叶子为食和繁殖，但也以百里香(thyymus spp.)、鼠尾草(Salvia spp.)、俄罗斯鼠尾草(Perovskia triplicifolia Benth.)和可能的其他Lamiaceae植物为食(Balachowsky 1963;Bibolini 1964;Halstead 1996;Barclay & Mann 2002;麦克劳德2002;CABI 2016)。美洲大蠊不会飞，因此其传播能力受到限制，但可以很容易地与寄主植物一起运输(MacLeod 2002)。在英国，美洲锥虫现在被认为是一种有害植物，迷迭香和百里香(麦克劳德2002)。friedman et al.(2005)基于以色列国家昆虫收藏、steinhardt自然历史博物馆、以色列国家生物多样性研究中心、特拉维夫大学动物园学系近80年的密集收集，对以色列金虫科(鞘翅目:金虫科)的区系进行了调查。除美洲瓢虫外，共记录瓢虫16种。金银花主要是一种壮观的、巨大的、色彩斑斓的甲虫，通常自由地栖息在它们的寄主植物上(包括幼虫和成虫)，通常很容易被专业人士和业余爱好者甚至动物学家收集或拍摄，是研究得更好、更出名的甲虫群之一。

We present the first Middle-Eastern record of Thaumastocoris peregrinus Car- pintero & Dellapé, an invasive pest that feeds and develops only on euca lyp tus trees. This species was found in Israel for the first time in Eucalyptus camaldu- lensis stands in October 2014. A survey of several eucalyptus groves was conducted in Tel Aviv and its surroundings to assess the geographical dis tri bu tion and host-plant associations of T. peregrinus . We summarize new and old data on this species, i.e., its identification, immature stages, bio logy, pheno logy, and damage caused to the host plant.

Within the framework of the German-Israeli Lepidoptera Fauna of the Levant project during 1998–2010, a list of the presently known species of the Plusiinae (12 species), Acontiinae (10), Bryophilinae (10), Heliothinae (8), Metoponiinae (7), Eustrotiinae (4), Acronictinae (3), Condicinae (3), Psaphidinae (2), Bagisarinae (1), Dilobinae (1), and Eriopinae (1) is presented. Altogether 62 species of these subfamilies have been found in Jordan with 22 of them (35.5 %) being new records. High representativeness of species in comparison with the Levant fauna shown for the Acontiinae, Bryophilinae, Metoponiinae and Plusiinae ranging from 66.7–71.4 %. The Heliothinae of Jordan are represented by 80 % of species found in the Levant. The subfamily Acronictinae represented in Jordan only by 30 % of the Levant fauna is substantially impoverished due to the lack of rive rine forests, which are uncommon in Jordan. The total fauna of Jordanian Noc tuoidea is represented by 364 species.

Five (3♀, 2♂) adult psyllids were collected the end of April, 2015 from Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh. (Myrtaceae) at Tzapari Bird Park in Tel Aviv, Israel. They are identified as Platyobria biemani Burckhardt, Queiroz & Malenovský, 2014 a presumed Australian species which has been previously known only from the type locality on the island of Lesbos, Greece (Burckhardt et al. 2014). Platyobria be longs to the Spondyliaspidinae, a rich and diversified sub family mostly restricted to Australia that lives on the Myrtaceae, in particular Eucalyptus spp. (Hollis 2004). Several spondyliaspidines have been introduced to other continents, where some of them have become serious eucalypt pests (Quei roz et al. 2012). Most of these introductions are relatively recent and their spread is usually rapid. This is particularly well documented for South America where no eucalypt psyllids were known before 1990. In the second half of the 1990s, three species (Blastopsylla occidentalis Taylor, Ctenarytaina eucalypti (Maskell) and C. spatulata Taylor) ap peared almost simultaneously (Burckhardt et al. 1999). A few years later a fourth species (Glycaspis brimblecombei Moore) was found in Chile (Sandoval & Rothmann 2002) and it quickly spread over the con tinent (Queiroz et al. 2013).
2015年4月底，在滇桉中采集到成虫5只(♀3只，♂2只)。(桃金娘科)在以色列特拉维夫的Tzapari鸟类公园。它们被鉴定为Platyobria biemani Burckhardt, Queiroz & Malenovský， 2014，一种假定的澳大利亚物种，以前只在希腊莱斯博斯岛的模式地区被发现(Burckhardt et al. 2014)。Platyobria be -隶属于Spondyliaspidinae，这是一个丰富多样的亚科，主要局限于澳大利亚，生活在myrtacae上，特别是桉树(Hollis 2004)。一些脊椎病已被引入其他大陆，其中一些已成为严重的桉树害虫(Quei roz et al. 2012)。这些引进大多是相对较新的，它们的传播通常是迅速的。这一点在南美得到了充分的证明，在1990年之前，那里还没有发现桉树木虱。在20世纪90年代后半期，三个物种(Blastopsylla occidentalis Taylor, Ctenarytaina eucalyptus (Maskell)和C. spatulata Taylor)几乎同时出现(Burckhardt et al. 1999)。几年后，在智利发现了第四个物种(Glycaspis brimblecombei Moore) (Sandoval & Rothmann 2002)，并迅速蔓延到整个大陆(Queiroz et al. 2013)。

They are identified as Platyobria biemani Burckhardt, Queiroz & Malenovský, 2014 a presumed Australian species which has been previously known only from the type locality on the island of Lesbos, Greece (Burckhardt et al. 2014). Platyobria be longs to the Spondyliaspidinae, a rich and diversified sub family mostly restricted to Australia that lives on the Myrtaceae, in particular Eucalyptus spp. (Hollis 2004). Several spondyliaspidines have been introduced to other continents, where some of them have become serious eucalypt pests (Quei roz et al. 2012). Most of these introductions are relatively recent and their spread is usually rapid. This is particularly well documented for South America where no eucalypt psyllids were known before 1990. In the second half of the 1990s, three species (Blastopsylla occidentalis Taylor, Ctenarytaina eucalypti (Maskell) and C. spatulata Taylor) ap peared almost simultaneously (Burckhardt et al. 1999). A few years later a fourth species (Glycaspis brimblecombei Moore) was found in Chile (Sandoval & Rothmann 2002) and it quickly spread over the con tinent (Queiroz et al. 2013).","PeriodicalId":38793,"journal":{"name":"Israel Journal of Entomology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71072394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
species diversity of ants was recorded in 2000–2001 at seven stations of a microsite in nahal Keziv, western upper galilee, designated as ‘evolution Ca nyon’ II. In the 7000 m2 area, we recorded 31 ant species including one species identified only at the genus level: 19 on the ‘African’ slope, 12 on the ‘European’ slope, and 17 species at the valley bottom. among the recorded species one is new to the fauna of Israel (Cataglyphis semitonsus). Interslope ant species com position varies remarkably due to differential microclimatic conditions, partly demonstrating the effect of microclimate differences on ant species diversity at a microscale. further studies at this site following the ‘evolution Canyon’ mo del as conducted at eC I in mount Carmel, will enable indepth investigations of changes in biodiversity, adaptation and incipient sympatric speciation, i.e. evolution in action, within a relatively free breeding interslope populations.
