Rearing of Mallada basalis (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) on modified artificial diets
Mallada basalis (Walker) has the potential to be a valuable biological control agent because of its predatory abilities, strong reproductive capacity, and broad prey range. This study aimed to improve on a previously used artificial diet for M. basalis, to achieve a longer oviposition period and greater survival rate and fecundity. We analyzed the development, survival, longevity, and reproduct...
متن کاملJumping mechanisms in lacewings (Neuroptera, Chrysopidae and Hemerobiidae).
Lacewings launch themselves into the air by simultaneous propulsive movements of the middle and hind legs as revealed in video images captured at a rate of 1000 s(-1). These movements were powered largely by thoracic trochanteral depressor muscles but did not start from a particular preset position of these legs. Ridges on the lateral sides of the meso- and metathorax fluoresced bright blue whe...
متن کاملRevision of the green lacewing subgenus Ankylopteryx (Sencera) (Neuroptera, Chrysopidae)
The Australasian and Oriental green lacewing subgenus Ankylopteryx (Sencera) Navás (Chrysopinae: Ankylopterygini) is examined and its diversity and placement among other members of the tribe Ankylopterygini is discussed. After study of specimens spanning the full distribution and anatomical range of variation for the subgenus, all prior putative species, resulting in the sole valid species are ...
متن کاملApochrysinae (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae): new larval description and subfamilial comparisons.
Although Apochrysinae is considered an important, ancient clade of Chrysopidae, its immature stages are very poorly known. Larvae are rarely seen, and descriptions are limited to the third instar of only one species in the genus Apochrysa. Herein, the larvae (all instars) of a second species, Apochrysa voeltzkowi (Weele), are described, and the features of the two Apochrysa species are compared...
متن کاملRevision of the Neotropical green lacewing genus Ungla (Neuroptera, Chrysopidae)
Here, Ungla Navás, 1914, a poorly known Neotropical genus is reviewed. Twenty-five valid species are recognized; seven of them are new to science: Ungla adamsisp. n., U. elbergisp. n., U. grandispiraculasp. n., U. mexicanasp. n., U. pennyisp. n., U. quchapampasp. n., U. stangeisp. n.; and five are transferred to Ungla from other genera: U. bolivari (Banks), U. chacranella (Banks), U. sideroceph...
