Endemism patterns in the Italian leaf beetle fauna (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae)
In this contribution the results of a zoogeographical analysis, carried out on the 123 endemic leaf beetle species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) occurring in Italy and its immediately adjacent regions, are reported. To assess the level of faunistic similarity among the different geographic regions studied, a cluster analysis was performed, based on the endemic component. This was done by calculat...
متن کاملVertical stratification of leaf-beetle assemblages (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) in two forest types in Panama
To studyvertical gradients of arthropod species richness in tropical forests, adult chrysomelidswere surveyed with similar sampling effort by beating in four plots of 0.8 ha, representative of the canopy and understorey of one wet and one dry forest in Panama. Samples included in total 4615 individuals representing 253 species, and were of similar species richness at the two study sites. At bot...
متن کاملEstablishment of Parasitoids of the Lily Leaf Beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) in North America.
Three larval parasitoids were imported from Europe to control the lily leaf beetle, Lilioceris lilii Scopoli (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), an accidentally introduced herbivore of native and cultivated lilies in North America. Tetrastichus setifer Thomson (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) was introduced in Massachusetts in 1999, and was found to be established there in 2002. Subsequent releases of T. set...
متن کاملLocomotion and attachment of leaf beetle larvae Gastrophysa viridula (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae).
While adult green dock leaf beetles Gastrophysa viridula use tarsal adhesive setae to attach to and walk on smooth vertical surfaces and ceilings, larvae apply different devices for similar purposes: pretarsal adhesive pads on thoracic legs and a retractable pygopod at the 10th abdominal segment. Both are soft smooth structures and capable of wet adhesion. We studied attachment ability of diffe...
متن کاملPOPULATION ECOLOGY Cottonwood Leaf Beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) Larval Performance on Eight Populus Clones
The cottonwood leaf beetle, Chrysomela scripta F., is the most serious defoliator of young plantation-grown Populus in the eastern United States, yet there is a paucity of data on larval feedingperformance acrossPopulus clones used in treebreeding. Field experimentswere conducted in 1998 and 1999 to determine the overall feeding performance of larval C. scripta on 8 Populus selections from a pe...
