Age polyethism in Plebeia emerina (Friese) (Hymenoptera: Apidae) colonies related to propolis handling Neotropical Entomology
Santos,Camila G dos; Blochtein,Betina; Megiolaro,Fernanda L; Imperatriz-Fonseca,Vera L.
Stingless bees collect plant resins and make it into propolis, although they have a wider range of use for this material than do honey bees (Apis spp.). Plebeia spp. workers employ propolis mixed with wax (cerumen) for constructing and sealing nest structures, while they use viscous (sticky) propolis for defense by applying it onto their enemies. Isolated viscous propolis deposits are permanently maintained at the interior of their colonies, as also seen in other Meliponini species. Newly-emerged Plebeia emerina (Friese) workers were observed stuck to and unable to escape these viscous propolis stores. We examined the division of labor involved in propolis manipulation, by observing marked bees of known age in four colonies of P. emerina from southern...

Aggregation behavior of Phyllophaga cuyabana (Moser) (Coleoptera: Melolonthidae): relationships between sites chosen for mating and offspring distribution Neotropical Entomology
Garcia,Maria A.; Oliveira,Lenita J.; Oliveira,Maria C.N. de.
The aggregation behavior of Phyllophaga cuyabana (Moser) was studied and the hypothesis that the cluster distribution of larvae of this pest into the soil is related to the sites where females from the previous generation had aggregated for mating was investigated. Field observations and greenhouse experiments carried out in Londrina County, State of Paraná, South Brazil, indicated that: a) during flight, adult females of P. cuyabana select plants, which are more conspicuous for landing and/or attracting males; b) tall plants, nearby soybean fields, might be preferred because female adults do not move far from the mating sites before digging themselves into the soil to lay eggs; c) high density of eggs and larvae occurs close to the adult aggregation...

Aging and food source effects on mandibular stylets teeth wear of phytophagous stink bug (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) Neotropical Entomology
Depieri,Rogério A; Siqueira,Fábio; Panizzi,Antônio R.
Studies were conducted to test the effect of age and food sources on wear of the mandibular teeth of the phytophagous pentatomid, Euschistus heros (F.). The total length (µm) of the area bearing the mandibular teeth, the length of the 1st tooth, and the height of the 2nd tooth for teneral (< 1 day-old) adults were significantly greater than that of adults fed on natural [green bean, Phaseolus vulgaris pods, raw shelled peanuts, Arachis hypogaea, and mature soybean, Glycine max seeds] for 30 or 60 days. Adults fed on artificial dry diet showed, in general, similar results to those of teneral adults. Force (Newtons) required penetrating the natural foods was significantly greater than that required penetrating the artificial diet. The greater hardness of...

Alelle number and heterozigosity for microsatellite loci in different stingless bee species (Hymenoptera: Apidae, Meliponini) Neotropical Entomology
Francisco,Flávio de O.; Brito,Rute M.; Arias,Maria C..
In the present study we compare genetic characteristics (allele diversity and observed heterozygosity) of microsatellite loci, from three stingless bee species (Plebeia remota Holmberg, Partamona mulata Moure In Camargo and Partamona helleri Friese), amplified by using heterospecific primers originally designed for Melipona bicolor Lepeletier and Scaptotrigona postica Latreille. We analyzed 360 individuals of P. remota from 72 nests, 58 individuals of P. mulata from 58 nests, and 47 individuals of P. helleri from 47 nests. The three species studied showed low level of polymorphism for the loci amplified with primers derived from M. bicolor. However, for the loci amplified with primers derived from S. postica, only P. remota presented low level of...

Alimentary canal and reproductive tract of Hypothenemus hampei (Ferrari) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) Neotropical Entomology
Rubio G.,José D.; Bustillo P.,Alex E.; Vallejo E.,Luis F.; Acuña Z.,José R.; Benavides M.,Pablo.
The alimentary canal and the reproductive tract of males and females of Hypothenemus hampei Ferrari are described. The alimentary canal of H. hampei showed the crop with several spine-like structures and the midgut with few gastric caeca. We evidenced for the first time that adult females need to feed on coffee in order to produce viable eggs before and during oviposition period. The presence of air bubbles inside the anterior midgut may be due to starvation rather than the response of the environment during flying as previously reported. Two ovaries and the same structures and arrangements common to individuals of the Curculionidae beetles composed the female reproductive system. The male reproductive tract showed a significant difference with respect to...

Allee effect in exotic and introduced blowflies Neotropical Entomology
Serra,H; Costa,Mis; Godoy,Wac.
We combined two models to investigate the theoretical dynamics of five exotic and native blowfly species in response to the Allee effect by using demographic parameters estimated from experimental populations. Most of the results suggest stabilization of dynamic behavior in response to the Allee effect. However, the results depended on the magnitude of the demographic parameters of each species, and also indicated chaotic fluctuations and limit cycles. The results are discussed in the context of larval aggregation, an important biological process for blowflies, which naturally incorporates the Allee effect.

Allometry and ontogeny in Callibia diana Stål (Mantodea: Acanthopidae) Neotropical Entomology
Avendaño,J; Sarmiento,CE.
The life-cycle of Callibia diana Stål is described and linear and geometric morphometrics are used for studying allometrics and shape changes throughout this neotropical mantid species' life-cycle. Significant changes were expected in the allometry and shape of the raptorial leg and abdomen, given the importance of hunting and reproduction. The allometric slopes were obtained by using total length as the independent variable. Geometric morphometrics of landmarks were used for frontal femur and tibia. Hunting and reproduction-related structures had the steepest slopes and positive allometries. Negative growth of both disc width and head width found in the last moulting event may be a consequence of prothoracic muscle growth which is responsible for...

Alternative control of Tetranychus evansi Baker &amp; Pritchard (Acari: Tetranychidae) on tomato plants grown in greenhouses Neotropical Entomology
Soto,Alberto; Venzon,Madelaine; Oliveira,Rafael M; Oliveira,Hamilton G; Pallini,Angelo.
Tetranychus evansi Baker &amp; Pritchard is an important pest of solanaceous plants, including tomatoes. This mite is characterized by a high reproductive rate, which leads to high population growth in a short period of time causing important economic damage. Control of T. evansi is mainly through synthetic acaricides. In searching for environmentally friendly control measures, we evaluated the efficiency of alternative products to control T. evansi on tomato plants under greenhouse conditions. The products tested were lime sulphur and neem based products. We first estimated the lethal concentration (LC) and instantaneous rate of increase (r i) of T. evansi exposed to different product concentrations in laboratory conditions, and later tested the...

Alternative food sources and overwintering feeding behavior of the boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis boheman (coleoptera: curculionidae) underthe tropical conditions of central Brazil Neotropical Entomology
Ribeiro,Paulina de A; Sujii,Edison R; Diniz,Ivone R; Medeiros,Maria A de; Salgado-Labouriau,Maria L; Branco,Marina C; Pires,Carmen S S; Fontes,Eliana M G.
The boll weevil causes serious damage to the cotton crop in South America. Several studies have been published on this pest, but its phenology and behavior under the tropical conditions prevailing in Brazil are not well-known. In this study the feeding behavior and main food sources of adult boll weevils throughout the year in Central Brazil was investigated. The digestive tract contents of insects captured in pheromone traps in two cotton fields and two areas of native vegetation (gallery forest and cerrado sensu stricto) were analyzed. The insect was captured all through the year only in the cerrado. It fed on pollen of 19 different plant families, on Pteridophyta and fungi spores and algae cysts. Simpson Index test showed that the cerrado provided...

Alternative methods for rearing grass-feeding spittlebugs (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) Neotropical Entomology
Peck,Daniel C.; Morales,Anuar; Castro,Ulises.
Two methodologies for rearing grass-feeding spittlebugs are described and were evaluated with Aeneolamia varia (Fabricius) on Brachiaria ruziziensis Germ. &amp; Evrard. To promote biological studies, a new small-scale rearing unit was developed to maintain spittlebug life stages in the greenhouse year round. This unit features a plant tray established with roots as feeding sites for nymphal development alongside an adult emergence cage with plants and oviposition substrate for egg collection. For large-scale production, an improved mass-rearing colony was designed to reduce inputs and streamline production. The major feature was a covered box with root and microclimate conditions adequate for nymphal development. Efficiency of adult production from...

Alternative techniques to study characters of the genitalia in Lepidoptera Neotropical Entomology
Dias,Fernando M S; Casagrande,Mirna M; Mielke,Olaf H H.
The present note aims to describe two alternative methods for observing genitalia in Lepidoptera. The first one provides means to examine both male and female genitalia without spoiling the scales of the abdomen, preserving it attached to the thorax and aesthetically similar to an unexamined specimen. The second one provides ways of observing certain characters on the male genitalia in a non-destructive way, and does not depend on time-consuming removing and dissection of the abdomen. It is expected that the presented techniques will help on morphological studies and on identifying similar species which consistently differ in genitalic armatures.

Altitudinal distribution and body resource allocation in a High Mountain social wasp (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) Neotropical Entomology
Rodríguez-Jimenez,Andrea; Sarmiento,Carlos E..
Jame's rule proposes a direct relationship between body size and altitude. There are several studies about this rule; however, few studies analyze proportional changes in body parts along gradients. The morphological variation of Agelaia pallipes (Olivier) in five sites along an altitudinal gradient (2600-3380 m) in the Santuario de Iguaque, Colombia, were studied in order to test whether or not the species follows Jame's rule, and whether body parts follow a homogeneous variation. Body variation analysis was conducted through multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) and the relationship between altitude and each morphometric measurement was studied through regression analyses. The MANOVA indicated significant differences among sites. An increase in...

Amblyomma dissimile Koch (Acari: Ixodidae) attacking Primolius maracana Vieillot (Psittaciformes: Psittacidae) in the Amazon region, state of Pará, Brazil Neotropical Entomology
Scofield,A; Bahia,M; Martins,AL; Góes-Cavalcante,G; Martins,TF; Labruna,MB.
The tick Amblyomma dissimile Koch feeds preferentially on reptiles (Squamata), although amphibians (Anura) also seem to be important hosts. We report an A. dissimile nymph infesting a blue-winged macaw, Primolius maracana, held in captivity in the Mangal das Garças Park, State of Pará, Brazil. Environmental observations suggest that free-living iguanas (Iguana iguana), which used to walk on the bird enclosure in the park, were the source of the A. dissimile tick that infested the blue-winged macaw. We provide the second world record of a bird host for A. dissimile, and the first bird record for this species in South America.

Amostragem seqüencial (presença-ausência) para Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) biótipo B (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) em feijoeiro (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) Neotropical Entomology
Pereira,Marcelo F.A.; Boiça Jr,Arlindo L.; Barbosa,José C..
A amostragem seqüencial (presença-ausência) vem sendo utilizada no manejo integrado de pragas pela rapidez e eficiência, principalmente, para pragas que são difíceis de serem quantificadas. Para o manejo de Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) biótipo B foi desenvolvido um plano de amostragem seqüencial, com base na presença ou ausência da praga em plantas de feijoeiro (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), independente do seu número. Os experimentos foram conduzidos nas épocas de semeadura "das águas" (2000/01) e "da seca" (2002), em Jaboticabal - SP, utilizando-se área de 1 ha, subdividida em 100 parcelas iguais de 100 m² (10 x 10 m). Em cada parcela foram avaliadas 10 plantas ao acaso, considerando-se somente se a mosca-branca estava ou não presente. O nível de dano econômico...

FARIAS,PAULO R. SILVA; BARBOSA,JOSÉ C.; BUSOLI,ANTÔNIO C..
A amostragem seqüencial (presença-ausência), nos últimos anos, vem ocupando espaço importante na amostragem de pragas, particularmente quando estas são difíceis de serem enumeradas. Para solucionar esse problema, no caso de Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith), foi desenvolvido um plano de amostragem seqüencial, onde a unidade amostral é examinada, levando-se em conta somente se a lagarta está ou não presente, independentemente do número. O experimento foi instalado em Jaboticabal, SP, utilizando-se três campos de 0,5 ha cada, subdivididos em 100 parcelas de 50 m² (5 x 10 m). Cada parcela constituiu uma unidade amostral, identificada por um número de 1 a 100. Na construção do plano de amostragem, foi utilizado o nível de dano econômico de 20%. A partir dos...

An adaptive view of caste differentiation in the neotropical wasp Polybia (Trichothorax) sericea Olivier (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) Neotropical Entomology
Desuó,IC; Souza-Galheico,CB; Shima,SN; Santos,GMM; Cruz,J D; Bichara Filho,CC; Dias,CTS.
The tribe Epiponini comprehends the swarm-founding Neotropical wasps, with several species endemic to Brazil, which are extremely important in studies of social evolution of wasps. The Epiponini diverge in several ways from the definitions of high eusociality, since caste syndromes range from species without morphological caste differentiation to those with complete caste dimorphism, and all species are polygynous. Frequently, indirect studies based on morphometry and physiology are the only solutions to collect data regarding the natural history and caste system in this tribe, since most species are extremely aggressive and build enveloped nests, usually in places of difficult access. We analyzed morphological parameters in seven colonies of the Epiponini...

An aquatic microhymenopterous egg-parasitoid of Argia insipida Hagen in Selys (Odonata: Coenagrionidae) and biological observations in the Central Amazon, Brazil Neotropical Entomology
Querino,Ranyse B; Hamada,Neusa.
The tritrophic interaction Argia insipida Hagen in Selys, the Trichogrammatidae egg parasitoid Pseudoligosita longifrangiata (Viggiani) and the host plant Tonina fluviatilis (Eriocaulacea), which is a substrate for egg deposition of A.insipid, was investigated. The study locality was a stream with rapids where macrophytes such as T. fluviatilis grow. Information on aquatic egg parasitoids is scarce. This is the first record of egg parasitism of A. insipida by P. longifrangiata in Brazil, and the first record of occurrence of P. longifrangiata in the country. Parasitized and unparasitized eggs of A. insipida were observed only on leaves 0-5 cm below the water surface. The maximum number of pairs of A. insipida laying eggs in the study area was observed...

An improved bait method for collecting hymenoptera, especially social wasps (Vespidae: Polistinae) Neotropical Entomology
Noll,Fernando B; Gomes,Bruno.
In this work, an alternative method for the capture of neotropical social wasps is described, which may supplement or replace the procedures commonly used in wasp surveys. The method was tested in a seasonal semideciduous forest in the northwest of São Paulo State, collecting a larger number of species and a greater abundance of social wasps and of other Hymenoptera than other methods also used in the same area, namely Malaise traps, bottle traps and meat baits. The proposed method was adapted from Wille (1962) who used an attractive solution based on water and honey for bee attraction. In here, the attractive solution was based on water, salt and crystal sugar, and was effective in attracting bees and solitary wasps, but mainly social wasps, which is the...

An invasive pentatomid pest in Argentina: neotropical brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (F.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) Neotropical Entomology
Saluso,A; Xavier,L; Silva,FAC; Panizzi,AR.
This is the first record on the invasion of the Neotropical brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (F.) in Paraná County (latitude 31º 51' 9.6" S, longitude 60º 32' 11.2" W), Entre Ríos province, Argentina. Five adults were intercepted in 2009/2010, one in crop residues and four on soybean fields. The expanding range in the distribution of E. heros in the Southern Hemisphere is believed to be due to the increased commercial trade among countries, increase in the area cultivated with soybean, and the adoption of no-tillage cropping systems.
