The Insects Infesting Pinus Andnothofagus
The distribution ofliving and fossil Nothofagus in the southern hemisphere (Skottsberg 1949) suggests the possibility that it once played a part in colonising primitive and unstable soils comparable with that played by Pinus in the northern hemisphere. Each genus includes species which colonise rocky soils of mountain ranges and glacial, alluvial and volcanic deposits; each genus is, or has bee...
متن کاملSouring of Figs by Yeasts and the Transmission of the Disease by Insects^
Souring of the figs was not noticed in the early part of the season, but began later to a limited extent when showers occurred. When the Smyrna figs ripen the ostiolum opens wide and remains open so that a match can easily be inserted and often moderate-sized insects can enter and feed on the sugar. Some of them are caught in the sticky sap and die within the fig. When the figs are ripe and fal...
متن کاملPlasma Descriptions II: MHD
The preceding chapter discussed the microscopic, kinetic and two-fluid decsriptions of a plasma. But we would actually like a simpler model — one that would include most of the macroscopic properties of a plasma in a “one-fluid” model. The simplest such model is magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), which is a combination of a one-fluid (hydrodynamic-type plus Lorentz force effects) model for the plasma ...
متن کاملHost use and resource sharing by fruit/seed-infesting insects on Schoepfia schreberi (Olacaceae).
The interactions between the fruit fly Anastrepha spatulata Stone (Diptera: Tephritidae) and two species of moths, the gelechiid Coleotechnites sp. and an unidentified tortricid species, were examined on their effects on seed production in terms of their exploitation within fruits of Schoepfia schreberi J.F. Gmel (Santalales: Olacaceae). The study was carried out in three experimental sites dur...
متن کاملNematodes, figs and wasps.
Certain Ficus spp. are dependent on wasps for pollination. The invading wasps usually shed their wings on entering a fig through the ostiole; and during attempted or successful egg deposi t ion, transfer pollen to the female flowers and then die. A gall forms around each egg, and within the gall develops a male or a female wasp. Male wasps are the first to emerge from galls, and they then ferti...
