Download or read book Biology of the Plant Bugs (Hemiptera: Miridae) written by Alfred George Wheeler and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant bugs--Miridae, the largest family of the Heteroptera, or true bugs--are globally important pests of crops such as alfalfa, apple, cocoa, cotton, sorghum, and tea. Some also are predators of crop pests and have been used successfully in biological control. Certain omnivorous plant bugs have been considered both harmful pests and beneficial natural enemies of pests on the same crop, depending on environmental conditions or the perspective of an observer.As high-yielding varieties that lack pest resistance are planted, mirids are likely to become even more important crop pests. They also threaten crops as insecticide resistance in the family increases, and as the spread of transgenic crops alters their populations. Predatory mirids are increasingly used as biocontrol agents, especially of greenhouse pests such as thrips and whiteflies. Mirids provide abundant opportunities for research on food webs, intraguild predation, and competition.Recent worldwide activity in mirid systematics and biology testifies to increasing interest in plant bugs. The first thorough review and synthesis of biological studies of mirids in more than 60 years, Biology of the Plant Bugs will serve as the basic reference for anyone studying these insects as pests, beneficial IPM predators, or as models for ecological research.

Book Synopsis Revision of New World Plagiognathus Fieber by : Randall T. Schuh
Download or read book Revision of New World Plagiognathus Fieber written by Randall T. Schuh and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The diagnostic features of Plagiognathus are clarified, with characteristics of the male genitalia being used for the first time in diagnosing the Nearctic species. The North American species are revised, with a total of 86 native and 3 introduced species being recognized. Twenty-four species are described as new. Habitus, vesical, and antennae illustrations are provided for all of these species. The Palearctic fauna is discussed; vesical illustrations are provided for 10 of the 24 species placed in Plagiognathus in the most recent catalog. Twenty-five new synonymies are created. Twenty-five species are transferred into Plagiognathus from other genera or removed from Plagiognathus and placed in other genera; in addition to the new combinations with definitive generic placement, 16 species are treated as incertae sedis. Microphylellus Reuter, Chaetophylidea Knight, and Parapsallus Wagner are treated as junior synonyms of Plagiognathus. Plagiognathus reuterellus, new name, is proposed to replace Plagiognathus flavipes Reuter, 1875, a junior secondary homonym. Six neotypes and one lectotype are designated in an effort to ensure stability in the application of names within Plagiognathus. A new genus, Tuxedo, with Microphylellus bicinctus Van Duzee, as the type species, is described to accommodate five previously described taxa that do not belong to either Microphylellus or Plagiognathus, in which genera they were originally placed. The generic-group name Zophocnemis Kerzhner is elevated to generic status to accommodate its single included species, bicolor Jakolev, because that species does not fit the revised diagnosis for Plagiognathus. Myochroocoris Reuter is synonymized with Atractotomus Fieber, its single included species, griseolus Reuter from eastern North America, having all of the diagnostic characters of Atractotomus. Specimens were broadly sampled from North American museums, with particular attention paid to the fauna west of the Great Plains. The eastern North American fauna is, nonetheless, treated in detail with the most extensive attempt yet to deal with the fauna of the South. Many new host records are included, clarifying associations for some species, but still leaving the breeding habits of others in question.

Book Synopsis Revision and Cladistic Analysis of the Holarctic Genus Atractotomus Fieber (Heteroptera, Miridae, Phylinae) by : Gary M. Stonedahl
Download or read book Revision and Cladistic Analysis of the Holarctic Genus Atractotomus Fieber (Heteroptera, Miridae, Phylinae) written by Gary M. Stonedahl and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Holarctic genus Atractotomus Fieber is revised. Lepidopsallus Knight and Microphylidea Knight are relegated to synonymy with Atractotomus. Thirty-seven species are recognized, including 17 new species from the Nearctic region. Microphylidea prosopidis Knight, Psallus kolenatii (Flor), Rhinacloa nigripennis Schuh and Schwartz, and six species of Lepidopsallus (arizonae Knight, atricolor Knight, miniatus Knight, ovatus Knight rubidus (Uhler), tuthilli Knight) are transferred to Atractotomus. Atractotomus amygdali Wagner, A. mali (Meyer-Dür), A. rhodani Fieber, and A. vireti Wagner are assigned the status of species incertae sedis. Atractotomus femoralis Fieber and A. spissicornis (Schrank) are declared nomina dubia. Atractotomus crataegi and the remaining eight species of Lepidopsallus (australis Blatchley, claricornis Knight, hesperus Knight, longirostris Knight, minusculus Knight, olseni Knight, pini Knight, rostratus Knight) are transferred to Phoenicocoris Reuter. The following species synonymies are proposed (senior synonym first): Atractotomus albidicoxis Reuter = Lepidopsallus monticola Knight; Atractotomus balli Knight = Atractotomus purshiae Froeschner and Lepidopsallus californicus Knight; Atractotomus magnicornis (Fallén) = Atractotomus magnicornis buenoi Knight; Atractotomus miniatus (Knight) = Lepidopsallus nyssae Johnston; Atractotomus ovatus (Knight) = Lepidopsallus nicholi Knight; Atractotomus parvulus Reuter = Atractotomus mirificus Woodroffe; Atractotomus persquamosus Seidenstücker = Atractotomus brunomassai Carapezza. Illustrations and/or photographs are provided for the antennae and male genitalic structures of all species of Atractotomus. Scanning electron micrographs are presented for the scalelike setae, metafemur, and pretarsus of representative species of Atractotomus and related genera. Separate keys are provided for the Nearctic and Palearctic members of the genus. A phylogenetic analysis of species is presented using Psallus ancorifer (Fieber) for outgroup comparison. Three species groups are recognized from the resulting species phylogeny. An analysis of host plant associations suggests that Atractotomus was primitively associated with conifers, but shifted to legume feeding early in the evolution of the genus. In the Nearctic region, this was followed by separate shifts to feeding on Quercus, Salix, and Rhamnaceae + Rosaceae. Species diversity and endemism are greatest in parts of east-central and south-central Mexico. Species with restricted distributions also occur in southeastern Arizona, the Rocky Mountains, and upland regions of the Pacific coast states and Baja California. The phylogenetic analysis of species indicates a strong relationship between taxa occurring in the American Southwest and endemic species in central Mexico"--P. 4.

Book Synopsis Thrips Biology and Management by : Bruce L. Parker
Download or read book Thrips Biology and Management written by Bruce L. Parker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thrips (fhysanoptera) are very small insects, widespread throughout the world with a preponderance of tropical species, many temperate ones, and even a few living in arctic regions. Of the approximately 5,000 species so far identified, only a few hundred are crop pests, causing serious damage or transmitting diseases to growing crops and harvestable produce in most countries. Their fringed wings confer a natural ability to disperse widely, blown by the wind. Their minute size and cryptic behavior make them difficult to detect either in the field or in fresh vegetation transported during international trade of vegetables, fruit and ornamental flowers. Many species have now spread from their original natural habitats and hosts to favorable new environments where they often reproduce rapidly to develop intense damaging infestations that are costly to control. Over the past decade there have been several spectacular examples of this. The western flower thrips has expanded its range from the North American continent to Europe, Australia and South Africa. Thrips palmi has spread from its presumed origin, the island of Sumatra, to the coast of Florida, and threatens to extend its distribution throughout North and South America. Pear thrips, a known orchard pest of Europe and the western United States and Canada has recently become a major defoliator of hardwood trees in Vermont and the neighboring states. Local outbreaks of other species are also becoming problems in field and glasshouse crops as the effectiveness of insecticides against them decline.
