DNA barcodes for two scale insect families, mealybugs (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) and armored scales (Hemiptera: Diaspididae).
Although DNA barcode coverage has grown rapidly for many insect orders, there are some groups, such as scale insects, where sequence recovery has been difficult. However, using a recently developed primer set, we recovered barcode records from 373 specimens, providing coverage for 75 species from 31 genera in two families. Overall success was >90% for mealybugs and >80% for armored scale specie...
متن کاملSynonymy in the armoured scale insect genus Unaspis MacGillivray (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Diaspididae).
In recent years, an undescribed species of Unaspis MacGillivray (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Diaspididae) has become a damaging pest on the fruit crop Lansium domesticum Corrêa (family Meliaceae) in the Philippines.
متن کاملPhoretic dispersal of armored scale crawlers (Hemiptera: Diaspididae).
Dispersal and colonization of new areas by armored scale insects (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) is achieved by mobile first-instar nymphs, called crawlers. Few studies have considered the actual mechanisms by which crawlers disperse, and although crawlers are capable of actively wandering over short distances (generally < 1 m), their dispersal over longer distances has been thought to be wind-mediate...
متن کاملEffect of an invasive and native ant on a field population of the black citrus aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae).
Invasive ants often enter into facultative mutualisms that frequently lead to outbreaks of the hemipteran partner. Native ants may also enter into similar mutualisms but often these do not lead to outbreaks. However, field studies comparing the impact of an invasive and native ant on a honeydew-producing hemipteran are lacking. We monitored numerical changes of the black citrus aphid, Toxoptera...
