Recent DNA barcoding of generalist insect herbivores has revealed complexes of cryptic species within named species. We evaluated the species concept for a common generalist moth occurring in New Guinea and Australia, Homona mermerodes, in light of host plant records and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I haplotype diversity. Genetic divergence among H. mermerodes moths feeding on different host tree species was much lower than among several Homona species. Genetic divergence between haplotypes from New Guinea and Australia was also less than interspecific divergence. Whereas molecular species identification methods may reveal cryptic species in some generalist herbivores, these same methods may confirm polyphagy when identical haplotypes are reared from multiple host plant families. A lectotype for the species is designated, and a summarized bibliography and illustrations including male genitalia are provided for the first time. 相似文献

Abstract A cladistic analysis of morphological characters of the subtribe Xyleborina (Curculionidae, Scolytinae) is presented. An examination of individual characters revealed little phylogenetic information in many characters currently used for delimiting genera. Phylogenetically stable characters were used for the evaluation of the contemporary generic concept. The following genera have been recovered as monophyletic: Cnestus, Dryocoetoides, Eccoptopterus, Xylosandrus, Schedlia, Sampsonius and Taurodemus. The following genera have been found to be polyphyletic: Amasa, Ambrosiodmus, Arixyleborus, Coptoborus, Coptodryas, Cryptoxyleborus, Cyclorhipidion, Euwallacea, Leptoxyleborus, Taphrodasus, Theoborus, Webbia, Xyleborinus and Xyleborus. The analysis permitted the resurrection of four genera: Anisandrus, Microperus, Pseudowebbia and Streptocranus. A number of new combinations at specific level are given: Anisandrus cornutus (Schaufuss, 1891), A. dispar (Fabricius, 1792), A. eggersi (Beeson, 1930), A. improbus (Sampson, 1913), A. longidens (Eggers, 1930), A. maiche Stark, 1936, A. obesus (LeConte, 1868), A. sayi Hopkins, 1915, A. apicalis (Blandford, 1894), A. hirtus (Hagedorn, 1904), Microperus myristicae (Schedl, 1939), M. eucalypticus (Schedl, 1938), M. huangi (Browne, 1983), M. intermedius (Eggers, 1923), M. kadoyamaensis (Murayama, 1934), Pseudowebbia armifer (Schedl, 1942), P. seriata Browne, 1963, P. squamatilis (Schedl, 1955), P. trepanicauda (Eggers, 1923), P. curvatus (Browne, 1986), Streptocranus bicolor Browne, 1949, S. bicuspis (Eggers, 1940), S. capucinulus (Schedl, 1942), S. forficatus (Schedl, 1957), S. fragilis Browne, 1949, S. longicauda Browne, 1960, S. longispinis Browne, 1986, S. mirabilis Schedl, 1939, S. usagaricus (Eggers, 1922), S. sexdentatus (Eggers, 1940). The characters most useful for generic‐level taxonomy of Xyleborina were identified and their states refined and illustrated. An accompanying illustrated multiple‐entry electronic key for the updated xyleborine classification has been published on‐line at www.scolytid.msu.edu . 相似文献

This short review describes synthetic pores that are made from rigid-rod molecules and can bind oligo-and polymers such as polyacetylenes, p-oligophenyls, terpenoids, polypeptides, polysaccharides, and oligonucleotides. The spotlight is on recent breakthroughs to image the longtime elusive pore-polymer host-guest complexes as single giant pseudorotaxanes. 相似文献

Host specificity of ambrosia and bark beetles (Col., Curculionidae: Scolytinae and Platypodinae) in a New Guinea rainforest 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Abstract. 1. Bark and ambrosia beetles are crucial for woody biomass decomposition in tropical forests worldwide. Despite that, quantitative data on their host specificity are scarce.
2. Bark and ambrosia beetles (Scolytinae and Platypodinae) were reared from 13 species of tropical trees representing 11 families from all major lineages of dicotyledonous plants. Standardised samples of beetle-infested twigs, branches, trunks, and roots were taken from three individuals of each tree species growing in a lowland tropical rainforest in Papua New Guinea.
3. A total of 81 742 beetles from 74 species were reared, 67 of them identified. Local species richness of bark and ambrosia beetles was estimated at 80–92 species.
4. Ambrosia beetles were broad generalists as 95% of species did not show any preference for a particular host species or clade. Similarity of ambrosia beetle communities from different tree species was not correlated with phylogenetic distances between tree species. Similarity of ambrosia beetle communities from individual conspecific trees was not higher than that from heterospecific trees and different parts of the trees hosted similar ambrosia beetle communities, as only a few species preferred particular tree parts.
5. In contrast, phloeophagous bark beetles showed strict specificity to host plant genus or family. However, this guild was poor in species (12 species) and restricted to only three plant families (Moraceae, Myristicaceae, Sapindaceae).
6. Local diversity of both bark and ambrosia beetles is not driven by the local diversity of trees in tropical forests, since ambrosia beetles display no host specificity and bark beetles are species poor and restricted to a few plant families. 相似文献

A Method for Separating Cuticular and Stomatal Components of Gas Exchange by Amphistomatous Leaves: II. EXPERIMENTAL SOLUTION 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The apparent cuticular component of transpiration of stomatabearing leaf epidermis was estimated by restricting stomataldiffusion by mass flow of air in the opposite direction. Thiswas achieved by applying an air pressure gradient across theamphistomatous leaf. Some assumptions of the previously suggestedmethod (antrcek and Slav?k, 1990) were experimentally verifiedusing maize leaves. The technique makes possible a quantitativeestimation of cuticular water loss including that of the externalperistomatal (i.e. vapour not passing through the pores) andthe respective conductance when the stomata are partially open. In addition to the fact that the cuticular portion of the totalleaf vapour loss (i.e. relative cuticular transpiration) dependson stomatal opening, even the absolute value of apparent cuticulartranspiration was (1) increased by lower vapour pressure deficitand (2) decreased with closing stomata. These changes, inducedby variations in a vapour pressure deficit of 2.45?0.35 kPa,ranged between 0.66?0.14µg cm 2 s1. Theabsolute value of apparent cuticular transpiration changed onaverage by a factor of 2.3 due to stomata opening or closingwhich was induced by turning the light on or by exogenous ABAapplication. Possible interference by residual vapour diffusingthrough the stomatal pore was evaluated by the model application.An attempt was also made to assess the cuticular component ofCO2-uptake rate. Experimental results are discussed in contextwith the feedforward response of stomata to air humidity. Key words: Cuticular transpiration, cuticular CO2-uptake, feedforward response, maize 相似文献

SYNOPSIS. A new peritrichous ciliate, Epistylis helicostylum n. sp. is described. It lives attached to the extremities of the ostracod Eucypris virens as its specific symphoriont. A spiral structure forming a protective theca for the colony of daughter animals is produced by the allometric growth of the outer sheath of the stalk. The whole process of its formation is described. 相似文献
