栗山天牛幼虫龄数和龄期的测定

栗山天牛Massicus raddei (Blessig)是危害我国东北柞树天然林的重要蛀干害虫, 长期营隐蔽性生活, 3年发生1代, 防治困难。幼虫的龄数和龄期测定是害虫预测预报以及制订其科学治理策略的重要依据。本研究于2008-2011年通过林间定期解剖受害树进行取样, 在辽宁省宽甸县采集不同发育阶段的栗山天牛幼虫, 分别测量幼虫上颚长、 主单眼间距、 前胸背板宽、 中胸气门长和体长等5项形态指标, 利用频次分析的统计方法, 测定了栗山天牛幼虫的龄数。结果表明: 栗山天牛幼虫有6龄, 雌雄性幼虫龄数相同。上颚长、 主单眼间距和前胸背板宽3项指标均可用于分龄, 中胸气门长和体长变异较大, 不宜用作幼虫龄数划分。利用种群众数龄期法计算1-6龄幼虫的平均龄期分别为9.25, 266.85, 48.09, 51.29, 260.33和385.71 d, 幼虫期共1 021.52 d。在我国东北地区, 自然条件下栗山天牛世代发生非常整齐而且高度同步, 完成1代发育需跨越4个年份, 幼虫经历3次越冬, 第1年以2-3龄幼虫越冬, 第2年主要以4-5龄幼虫越冬, 第3年全部以末龄幼虫越冬。研究结果进一步明确了栗山天牛幼虫期的生物学特性, 为生产上合理防治该害虫提供了参考依据。     

马尾松毛虫过氧化氢酶及过氧化物酶与耐药性的关系

马尾松毛虫Dendrolimus punctatus幼虫体内存在着过氧化氢酶(CAT)和过氧化物酶(POD)。4龄幼虫的CAT和POD活力较大,其次是6龄幼虫,5龄幼虫的CAT和POD活力较4龄和6龄幼虫低。醚菊酯(etofenprox)处理后,在兴奋期(30 min),CAT和POD活力水平上升。4龄和6龄幼虫在抑制期(50 min以后),CAT和POD活力呈波动式上升,接近死亡时下降。5龄幼虫的CAT和POD活力呈波动式上升,接近死亡时下降。5龄幼虫的CAT在抑制期保持比正常虫体高的活力。结果表明,马尾松毛虫4龄、5龄和6龄幼虫与耐药性存在一定的相关性,研制酶的抑制剂具有实用意义。根据毒力测定结果,马尾松毛虫幼虫对醚菊酯的耐药力,5龄是4龄的1.43倍,6龄是4龄的1.72倍。因此,药物防治的合理时期应掌握在4龄以前较适宜。

泰安地区松阿扁叶蜂越冬幼虫抗寒性

松阿扁叶蜂越是松树的重要食叶害虫之一。其幼虫在松林土壤中越冬,越冬幼虫的抗寒能力影响翌年的种群密度和危害程度。用NTC-TD热敏电阻 数字电表法研究了越冬幼虫的过冷却能力并调查了越冬场所、龄期、死亡率等。结果表明:越冬幼虫的过冷却点随外界温度的高低而变化。4、5、6龄越冬幼虫平均过冷却点依次由越冬初期的-19.3℃-、20.3℃-、21.6℃降至越冬期的-22.5℃-、24.8℃-、23.1℃,冰点依次由越冬初期的-12.8℃-、12.9℃-、12.1℃降至越冬期的-14.1℃、-16.8℃-、15.3℃。从越冬期进入早春出蛰期后,随着温度的回升,过冷却点也随之升高。调查林间越冬幼虫龄期表明,4龄、5龄、6龄皆有,以5龄为最多,占53%;越冬幼虫以山坡中部和顶部土壤瘠薄处虫口密度较小,分别占28.6%和29.3%,山坡基部土层较厚处密度较大,占42.1%;越冬幼虫在树冠内的分布,以南部方位最多(27.0%),东部方位(26.3%)和西部方位(25.6%)略少,北部方位最少(21.1%);调查幼虫死亡因子,以真菌感染致死最多,占总死亡数的42.4%,细菌和其它因子分别为28%和29.7%。     

Vulnerability of larvae of two species of aphidophagous ladybirds, Adalia bipunctata Linnaeus and Harmonia axyridis Pallas, to cannibalism and intraguild predation

Vulnerability of larvae of two species of aphidophagous ladybirds, Adalia bipunctata Linnaeus and Harmonia axyridis Pallas, to cannibalism and intraguild predation was assessed in the laboratory. In the first experiment, a first instar of one of the two above species was kept with a fourth instar of the other species in a Petri dish. The number of times each first instar larva was encountered by the fourth instar larva and the fate of the first instar was determined over a period of 10 min. The fourth instar larvae captured and killed all the first instar larvae of their own species at the first encounter. However, when presented with fourth instar larvae of the other species the first instar larvae of A. bipunctata and H. axyridis were encountered 6.4 ± 1.3 ( n  = 10) and 19.4 ± 2.1 ( n  = 10), respectively. In this experiment no first instar larvae of H. axyridis , whereas all those of A. bipunctata , were killed.     

Effects of previous diet and frequency of feeding on development of larval damselflies

SUMMARY. 1. Food availability during instar F-3 affected duration of instar F-3 of larval Ischnura vertiealis (Say) maintained in the laboratory but did not affect the increase in head width at the moult to instar F-2.
2. Food availability during instar F-2 altered both duration in instar F-2 and weight per unit head width of newly moulted F-l larvae, but not the increase in head width at the moult to instar F-1.
3. Food availability during instar F-3 had no effect on instar duration, weight per unit head width, or increase in head width of F-2 larvae at the moult to instar F-l.
4. Survival of larval Coenagrion resolution (Hagen) reared in the laboratory was dependent on mean number of Daphnia offered per day. In addition, larvae fed less frequently, but on the same mean number of Daphnia per day. had lower survival rates than larvae fed more frequently.     

Separation of cat flea (Siphonaptera: Pulicidae) instars by individual rearing and head width measurements

Two methods to verify whether head width measurements fit Dyar's rule were evaluated for the separation of instars of the cat flea, Ctenocephalides felis (Bouché). Individual rearing was a reliable method of determining larval instar but was labor-intensive. The mean observed head widths were significantly different for each instar (first instar, 0.164 mm; second instar, 0.201 mm; third instar, 0.260 mm) and showed no sexual dimorphism. Head capsule width increased roughly 25% from instar to instar with geometrically progressing growth in accordance with Dyar's rule. However, head capsule width cannot be used to determine the instar of randomly selected larvae because the measurements overlap broadly between instars.

Juvenile hormone regulation of CYCLIC AMP and cAMP phosphodiesterase activity in Oncopeltus fasciatus.

The fifth instar large milkweed bug, Oncopeltus fasciatus, exhibits fluctuation in both cyclic AMP titre and cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity. Cyclic AMP titres are lowest very early in the instar, increase rapidly to peak at 14% of the instar, and decrease throughout the remainder of the instar. The juvenile hormone (JH) mimic (Law-Williams mixture) treated bugs exhibit a similar pattern for cyclic AMP titres except the peak titre is at 20% of the instar. Phosphodiesterase activity is the greatest at 5% of the instar, decreases during the middle of the instar, and increases again at approximately 90% of the instar. One day corresponds to 14% of the instar in these bugs. Treatment with JH shifts the period of greatest activity to 11% of the instar. One day corresponds to 20% of the instar for JH treated bugs. It is proposed that these findings are due to a stimulatory effect of JH on phosphodiesterase activity.     

Larval rearing conditions affect kin-mediated cannibalism in a treehole mosquito

Cannibalistic behavior among Ochlerotatus triseriatus larvae was studied to determine whether cannibals are able to alter their attack behavior based on their relatedness to newly hatched conspecific prey larvae. Fourth instar larvae, reared in one of four different initial densities, were placed with newly emerged first instars and, after 48 h, the number of first instar larvae remaining was recorded. Our data suggest a Type III functional response of non-kin fourth instar larvae to first instar prey density. Several significant effects emerged from our analysis model, namely that the number of first instar prey available, the relationship of the first instar larvae with the cannibals, and the density at which the fourth instar cannibals were reared all affected the number of first instar larvae consumed.     

A laboratory investigation of mosquito larval predation by Toxorhynchites moctezuma on Aedes aegypti

1. Functional responses of predatory Toxorhynchites moctezuma (Dyar & Knab) larvae feeding on Aedes aegypti (L.) larvae (Diptera: Culicidae) were found to be type II of Holling (1959) and Rogers (1972). 2. Estimates of searching rate were generally higher for later instar predators. The search rate of second instar predators declined as prey instar increased, but fourth instar Tx. moctezuma had the highest search rate for second instar Ae. aegypti. 3. Prey handling times were higher for early instar predators and late instar prey. 4. When presented with mixtures of two instars of Ae. aegypti, second instar Tx. moctezuma showed frequency independent selectivity for the early instars, whereas fourth instar predators showed frequency independent selectivity for the late instars of Ae. aegypti. There was no evidence of frequency dependent predation. Preferences appeared to be transitive. 5. Extended random predator equations, using parameters derived from the functional responses, did not adequately describe the outcome of predation in the prey mixture experiment, even when the possibility of optimal switching behaviour was accounted for.     

Stimulated synthesis of the female-specific storage protein in male larvae of the silkworm Bombyx mori treated with juvenile hormone analog

Application of methoprene to fourth (penultimate) instar larvae of the silkworm Bombyx mori induced the appearance of the feeding dauer larvae at the fifth (last) instar and prevented pupal metamorphosis. Methoprene also increased the protein concentrations of hemolymph last instar larvae by preventing sequestration of storage proteins by the fat body. Usually, the female-specific storage protein 1 (SP1)* disappears from the male hemolymph at the time of the last larval instar. However, exposure of male larvae to methoprene at the penultimate instar enhanced the accumulation of SP1 in the hemolymph. The SP1 accumulated in males did not differ in molecular weight and immunoreactivity from the SP1 produced in female larvae. Both sexes of fourth instar larvae allatectomized on day 1 instantly accumulated SP1 in the hemolymph, and methoprene application after allatectomy suppressed the hemolymph accumulation of the SP1. In contrast, if allatectomy was carried out at a later stage of the fourth larval instar, SP1 concentration in hemolymph of fifth instar larvae did not increase, suggesting the different juvenile hormone action for regulation of SP1 synthesis in the penultimate instar larvae of silkworms.     

Inter- and intra-instar food consumption in the German cockroach, Blattella germanica

Food consumption was measured in an insecticide-susceptible (Orlando) and-resistant (Village Green) strain of German cockroach, Blattella germanica (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae), throughout each stadium. All instars exhibited a similar pattern of consumption over the course of the instar; consumption was low to moderate at the beginning of each instar, climbed steadily to a maximum near the middle, declined progressively from the mid-instar maximum, and ceased or was minimal several days before the next molt. Consumption ceased or was minimal during the final two to four days of each instar. Cumulative consumption for the six instars was significantly greater in the Village Green strain as compared with the Orlando strain. Village Green nymphs consumed 79.6±0.7 mg of rat chow while Orlando nymphs consumed 63.7±3.4 mg. Total consumption by instar increased significantly with each successive instar in the Village Green strain. In addition, Village Green sixth instar females consumed significantly more food than sixth instar males. A similar trend was observed for the Orlando strain; consumption tended to increase in each successive instar. Relative consumption rate (food consumed/cockroach/instar divided by the mean weight of the instar) was highest in the first two instars and decreased in subsequent instars.
