Item Ephemeroptera (Insecta) de Caldas - Colombia, claves taxonómicas para los géneros y notas sobre su distribución(Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2015) Gutiérrez, Yeisson; Dias, Lucimar G.Con el objetivo de contribuir al conocimiento taxonómico y de distribución de los géneros del orden Ephemeroptera en Caldas, se estudiaron especímenes colectados entre mayo de 2008 y mayo de 2012 en 12 municipios del departamento de Caldas - Colombia, abarcando un rango altitudinal de 159 a 3433 m y un total de 55 fuentes hídricas. Se encontraron seis familias y 26 géneros de Ephemeroptera, de los cuáles Cabecar constituye un nuevo registro para Colombia, y también se realiza el primer registro de las ninfas de Tikuna y Ulmeritoides para el país. Americabaetis, Apobaetis, Callibaetis, Cloeodes, Guajirolus, Paracloeodes, Cabecar, Traveryphes, Tricorythodes, Terpides, Tikuna, Ulmeritoides, Caenis y Campsurus son nuevos registros para Caldas. Se encontraron diferencias en la composición de la fauna de Ephemeroptera en las diversas zonas altitudinales, siendo las zonas de altitud inferior a 1000 m las de mayor riqueza de géneros.Item Índice de adaptação e tempo letal da lagarta-do-cartucho em milho Bt(Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2016-05) Pereira, Eliseu José Guedes; Carvalho, Samantha Stefannie de Sousa; Pitta, Rafael Major; Waquil, José Magid; Mendes, Simone Martins; Waquil, Matheus SoaresO objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o índice de adaptação e o tempo letal de populações da lagarta-do-cartucho [Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)] em milho Bt que expressa as proteínas Cry1Ab, Cry1F, Cry1A.105/Cry2Ab2 e Vip3Aa20. Três bioensaios foram conduzidos com lagartas coletadas em Inhaúma, MG, e em Sinop, MT. As lagartas dessas populações foram alimentadas com folhas de milho não Bt e Bt. As seguintes variáveis foram avaliadas: sobrevivência larval, biomassa de pupas e período de desenvolvimento larval. Em seguida, foram calculados os índices de adaptação e o tempo letal dessas populações. Para a análise do tempo letal, também foram utilizados dados de mortalidade de uma população obtida de milho Bt Cry1F em Piumhi, MG. O milho Bt Cry1Ab apresentou eficiência limitada, mas duradoura. Já os milhos Bt Cry1A.105/Cry2Ab2 e Vip3Aa20 reduziram o desempenho de S. frugiperda, respectivamente, a menos de 5 e 0%, independentemente da origem da colônia. A população originada de Sinop apresentou alto desempenho larval no milho Bt Cry1F, o que mostra sua resistência a essa proteína e certo nível de custo adaptativo. O tempo letal pode ser uma variável indicadora de evolução de resistência, pois é maior para as populações com maior adaptação.Item High-level phylogeographic structuring of Neoleucinodes elegantalis Guenée (Lepidoptera, Crambridae) in Brazil: an important tomato pest(Revista Brasileira de Entomologia, 2016-07) Guedes, Raul N. C.; Maia, André V. P.; Almeida, Cícero; Santoro, Kleber R.; Melo, João L. A.; Oliveira, José V.; Badji, César A.Neoleucinodes elegantalis is an important tomato pest in Brazil, occurring throughout the country and resulting in economic losses in agriculture. In several species, biogeographic studies in Brazil indicate the structuring of populations, following the refuge model, with a split between the populations of the northeast and the southeast regions of Brazil. The objective of this work was to analyze the phylogeography of N. elegantalis in Brazil, understanding its population structure and the demographic patterns. Larvae were collected from eight locations throughout Brazil, and the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene was analyzed. A total of 628 bp in 51 individuals were obtained, showing 12 haplotypes with a haplotype diversity of 0.836. Spatial analysis of molecular variance (SAMOVA) and cluster analysis showed two populations, indicating population structuring between individuals from the northeast (population 1) and southeast (population 2) regions of Brazil. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the clades corresponding to the groups defined by SAMOVA have a divergence time of 0.2–0.5 million years, suggesting isolation during climatic events and a separation of the two populations coinciding with the predicted refuges to the Atlantic forest.Item Sarsina violascens spatial and temporal distributions affected by native vegetation strips in eucalyptus plantations(Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2016-06) Zanuncio, José Cola; Tavares, Wagner de Souza; Ramalho, Francisco de Sousa; Leite, Germano Leão Demolin; Serrão, José EduardoThe objective of this work was to evaluate spatial and temporal distributions of Sarsina violascens (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae: Lymantriinae) in two Eucalyptus cloeziana plantations, one with native vegetation strips (WNVS) and another without them (ONVS). Adults were collected with light traps, which were installed: inside an area of native vegetation (Cerrado), 100 m from the edge; at the contact zone between the native vegetation area and the E. cloeziana plantation; inside the E. cloeziana plantation, 250 m from the edge; at the central part of the native vegetation strip, around 500 m from the edge (WNVS) or in the contact zone between two E. cloeziana compartments (ONVS); and inside the E. cloeziana plantation, 500 m from the edge. The number of S. violascens adults collected was 240 in the system WNVS and 1,378 in the system ONVS. The lower number of individuals in the system WNVS was probably due to favored biological control provided by higher species richness with the use of native vegetation strips. These strips, intermingled with E. cloeziana plantations, allow a higher proportion of native forest in the landscape and can help to reduce S. violascens infestations.Item Lista de espécies dos Scarabaeinae (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae) do Estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil(Iheringia. Série Zoologia, 2017) Vaz-de-Mello, Fernando Z.; Bavutti, Leticia L. O.; Flechtmann, Carlos A. H.; Puker, Anderson; Correa, César M. A.Apresenta-se nesse estudo uma lista atualizada das espécies de besouros rola-bostas reportadas para o estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil. Cento e dezoito espécies são reportadas, e associadas aos ecossistemas ou hábitats antropizados em que ocorrem no estado.Item Omorgus suberosus and Polynoncus bifurcatus (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea: Trogidae) in exotic and native environments of Brazil(Zoologia (Curitiba), 2013-04) Puker, Anderson; Korasaki, Vanesca; Correa, César M. A.; Ferreira, Kleyton R.Trogidae beetles are important for the decomposition of organic material in ecosystems. In the Neotropical region, little is known about this family, except for their taxonomy. In this study, we report the presence of Omorgus suberosus (Fabricius, 1775) and Polynoncus bifurcatus (Vaurie, 1962) in exotic and native environments of Brazil, sampled with different baits. The beetles were captured in pastures with introduced grass (Brachiaria spp.) and in patches of native forest (Brazilian savanna). We used pitfall traps baited with carrion and human feces every two weeks, from January to December 2011, and with carrion, cow dung, human feces and pig manure at the beginning of the rainy season (October 2011). Over the course of one year, 24 individuals of O. suberosus were captured, 16 in the exotic and eight in the native environment, respectively. In the sampling performed at the beginning of the rainy season, 32 individuals of O. suberosus and seven of P. bifurcatus were obtained. Omorgus suberosus specimens were sampled in both environments, suggesting a possible tolerance to anthropogenic environments, as in the case of introduced grasses. Polynoncus bifurcatus individuals were captured only in native environments, which may indicate a strong relationship with more heterogeneous and/or relatively preserved habitats. We discuss such relationships in light of published data and new information provided here.Item Caracterização de ninhos e tamanho de colônia de Acromyrmex rugosus (F. Smith) (Hymenoptera, Formicidae, Attini) em restingas de Ilhéus, BA, Brasil(Revista Brasileira de Entomologia, 2006-03) Soares, Ilka Maria Fernandes; Lucia, Terezinha Maria Castro Della; Santos, Adriana Anadir dos; Nascimento, Ivan Cardoso; Delabie, Jacques Hubert CharlesOito ninhos de Acromyrmex rugosus foram escavados para estudar sua estrutura e estimar sua população. Esses ninhos eram sempre encontrados escondidos por plantas; apresentaram pequena quantidade de solo e tinham 1 ou 2 entradas; uma delas tinham a forma de um "U" invertido. Internamente, o número de câmaras foi variável e o volume de fungo foi pequeno(X=196 ml). O total da população do ninho foi aproximadamente, 895 indivíduos.Item Factors affecting colonization and abundance of Aphis gossypii glover (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on okra plantations(Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2007-03) Picanço, Marcelo; Zanuncio, José Cola; Gusmão, Marcos Rafael; Leite, Germano Leão DemolinThe control of Aphis gossypii Glover (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on okra Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) (Malvaceae) consist primarily in the use of insecticides, due to the lack of information on other mortality factors. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of predators and parasitoids, height of canopy, plant age, leaf areas, organic compounds leaves, levels of leaf nitrogen and potassium, density of leaf trichomes, total rainfall and median temperature on attack intensity of A. gossypii on two successive A. esculentus var. Santa Cruz plantations. Monthly number estimates of A. gossypii and natural enemies (visual inspection) occurred on bottom, middle and apical parts of 30 plants/plantation (one leaf/plant). Plants senescence, leaf areas and natural enemies, mainly Adialytus spp., spiders and Coccinellidae, were some of the factors that most contributed to aphid reduction. A higher number of aphids was found on the bottom part than medium and apical parts of okra plants. Total rainfall can reduce the aphid population. Trichomes non-glandular or low density, organic compounds leaves and levels of N and K were not important for reducing aphid population.Item Intensity of Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) and Liriomyza spp. (Diptera: Agromyzidae) attacks on Lycopersicum esculentum Mill. Leaves(Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2004-01) Picanço, Marcelo; Leite, Germano Leão Demolin; Jham, Gulab Newandran; Marquini, FlávioThe objective of this study was to determine the effect of height of leaves in the canopy of plants, leaf organic compounds, concentrations of leaf nitrogen and potassium, leaf trichomes and cristalliferous idioblasts densities on the attack intensity of three tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Santa Clara) crops by Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) and Liriomyza spp. (Diptera: Agromyzidae), under field conditions. The experimental design was arranged in randomized blocks, with three replications, each being one tomato crop. Analysis of variance and the Tukey s multiple range test (5% significance) were used to test the effect of canopy height, trichome and cristalliferous idioblasts densities on the number of mines produced by T. absoluta and Liriomyza spp. and on the number of T. absoluta eggs. Pearson s correlation (5% significance) was used to evaluate the relationships between leaf organic compounds, leaf N and K concentrations, leaf trichome and cristalliferous idioblasts densities and the number of mines produced by T. absoluta and Liriomyza spp. and the number of T. absoluta eggs. Highest insect attack occurred in the final stage of the culture. A higher number of Liriomyza spp. mines/leaf was recorded in the lower (1.50) than in the upper (0.02) level of the tomato plants, the opposite was observed for the number of T. absoluta eggs/leaf (0.13 and 0.57, respectively). The number of T. absoluta mines/leaf concentrated more on the median (10.23) and apical regions (8.63) than on the basal (4.93). No significant effect of the trichomes and cristalliferous idioblasts densities of leaves was noted on T. absoluta and Liriomyza ssp. populations. Apparently, the terpenes affected oviposition of T. absoluta while leaf potassium affected Liriomyza spp. attack.Item Effects of croton urucurana extracts and crude resin on Anagasta kuehniella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)(Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2009-05) Silva, Luciana Barboza; Silva, Walciane; Macedo, Maria Ligia Rodrigues; Peres, Marize Terezinha Lopes PereiraHundreds of plant species have been studied in order to find out the active ingredient responsible for their insecticidal activity against the pests of economic importance. To verify the insecticidal activity in the husk of stem of Croton urucurana Baillon 1864 (Euphorbiaceae) against Anagasta kuehniella Zeller 1879 (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), the methanolic (EMeOH) extract, dichloromethane fraction (FDM), ethyl acetate fraction (FAE) and crude resin, incorporated into an artificial diet were evaluated. EMeOH (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0%) and crude resin (2.0%) interfered with neither the weight nor the survival of fourth instar larvae and other analyzed parameters. FDM (2.0%) fraction caused mortality of 65%, and the artificial diet containing 2.0, 1.0 and 0.5% FAE caused 100, 55 and 68% mortality respectively when compared with the control, confirming the least efficiency rates of food conversion for FDM(2.0%) and FAE(1.0%). The tryptic analysis performed with the midgut fluid of fourth-instar larvae demonstrated that tryptic and chymiotryptic activities for the larvae fed artificial diet containing EMeOH and crude resin were not different.
