A revision to the genera Rhynchophorus and Dynamis (Coleoptera : Curculionidae)

Creator:: Wattanapongsiri, Anuwat
Abstract:: A taxonomic study was made on the genera Rhynchophorus and Dynamis of the weevil family Curculionidae which includes all of the species known to occur in the world. The bibliography lists all the important papers published to date on the taxonomy and bionomics of these weevils. A full synonymy is...

The biology and behavior of the alkali bee Nomia melanderi Cockerell (Hymnoptera: Apoidea)

Creator:: Hackwell, Glenn Alfred
Abstract:: Nomia melanderi Cockerell is one of the most efficient pollinators of alfalfa in Eastern Oregon. Emergence begins in June, usually reaches its peak in early July, and may continue into early August. Male emergence precedes female emergence by four or five days. For the first few weeks of this time,...

Twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Kock, in Oregon peppermint, Mentha piperita L. : sampling, population dynamics and economic injury

Creator:: Hollingsworth, Craig Stephen
Abstract:: A pest management program for Tetranychus urticae Koch in Oregon peppermint was developed based on studies of sampling, plant phenology, population dynamics and damage thresholds. A sample size of 45 leaves provided a confidence level of 90% and a confidence interval of 50%. Estimation of the sample mean was based...

Taxonomic revision of Lichnanthe Burmeister with studies on the biology of L. rathvoni (Leconte) (Coleoptera:Scarabaeidae)

Creator:: Carlson, David Craig
Abstract:: The genus Lichnanthe Burmeister contains eight extant and one fossil species which are strictly nearctic in distribution. The subfamily Glaphyrinae, however, is distributed nearly world-wide. Five species were previously described and three are described as new herein. All eight extant species are described in detail herein, synonomies are made current,...

Influence of temperature and photoperiod on the developmental biology of the obliquebanded leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris) (Lepidoptera:Tortricidae)

Creator:: Ranga Rao, Gangavalli V.
Abstract:: Developmental thresholds and thermal unit (degree day) requirements for eggs, different larval instars, pupal stage and preoviposition period were determined for the obliquebanded leafroller (OBLR), Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris). Separate thresholds and degree day requirements were determined for males and females, but differences between the sexes were not significant. However, there...

Revision of the genus Platylygus (Heteroptera: Miridae)

Creator:: Equihua-Martinez, Armando
Abstract:: The genus Platylygus Van Duzee was erected in 1915 and revised by Kelton and Knight in 1970 describing 26 new species from United State and Mexico. Despite this prior revision, taxonomic problems have been encountered with the use of the keys and in the identification given the close similarity among...

The root insect-- black-stain root disease association in Douglas-fir : vector relationships and implications for forest management

Creator:: Witcosky, Jeffrey John
Abstract:: Verticicladiella wageneri Kendrick is a vascular wilt pathogen of conifers, causing a black staining of colonized sapwood of roots and lower stem. In Douglas-fir, V. wageneri is intimately associated with insects. Hylastes nigrinus, Pissodes fasciatus, and Steremnuis carinatus are commonly associated with diseased hosts, carry inoculum of V. wageneri in...

Effects of temperature and other abiotic and biotic factors on development and survival of the immature stages of the alfalfa leafcutting bee, Megachile pacifica (Panzer) (=rotundata (F.)) (Hymenoptera:Megachilidae)

Creator:: Undurraga O., Jaime M.
Abstract:: Larval mortality of leafcutting bee, Megachile pacifica (Panzer) (= rotundata (F.)), is high, usually exceeding 50%. Parasites and predators are not a limiting factor in the survival of the progeny. The disease chalk brood has been an important mortality factor since 1974. Inadequate food supply, pollen and nectar, may affect...

Comparative studies of the population ecology and life history patterns of an alkaline salt lake insect : Ephydra (Hydropyrus) hians Say (Diptera:Ephydridae)

Creator:: Herbst, David B.
Abstract:: Seasonal abundance and life history traits were compared between populations of the brine fly Ephydra (Hydrokyrus) hians Say (Diptera:Ephydridae), from two western Great Basin alkaline salt lakes. Abert Lake, Oregon, has a relatively low salinity (20-30 g/1 total dissolved solids) and more co-inhabitant benthic species than the higher salinity Mono...
