中国甲蟋属记述(直翅目:蟋蟀科)

甲蟋属Acanthoplistus Saussure,1877隶属于蟋蟀总科、蟋蟀科。以前Chopard等蟋蟀分类专家曾根据此属的外部形态特征将其归于铁蟋科,1983年Gorochov l研究其外生殖器后认为Acanthoplistus属应属于蟋蟀科更为合理。其属征是前胸背板方形,盘区前缘向后凹星缓弧形,后缘平直,盘区和侧叶之间具明显纵隆线;足短,侧扁,后胫节具刺     

The Structure of the Anuran Amphibian Notochord and a Re-evaluation of its Presumed Role in Early Embryogenesis

For almost a century the amphibian notochord has been analyzed from either the structural or functional point of view. Relatively complete data have been collected concerning several aspects of its structure. Some of that data will be reviewed in this report. The functional role of the notochord has also occasionally been analyzed. Only recently, however, have extensive data begun to emerge which deal directly with cause-effect relationships which may or may not exist between the notochord and surrounding tissues of the embryonic axial structure system. This report will re-evaluate the role of the notochord in amphibian embryogenesis, and provide a review of the historical perspective in which recent discoveries should be interpreted.     

Photosynthesis in chloroplasts rapidly isolated from primary leaves of oat (Avena sativa L.): effects of orthophosphate, metal ion and chelators

Abstract A simple mechanical method for the rapid isolation of chloroplasts with high rates of photosynthesis from young leaves of oat (Avena sativa L.) was described. The photosynthetic activity of these chloroplasts was stable for at least 2 h with rates of CO₂-dependent O₂ evolution of 30–40 μmol g ¹ Chl s ¹. The photosynthetic properties of these chloroplasts were similar to those reported for spinach and pea chloroplasts isolated by mechanical disruption. The pH optimum for photosynthetic O₂ evolution was pH 7.6. The induction time was 0.5–2 min. Maximal rates of photosynthetic O₂ evolution in these chloroplast preparations were obtained in the absence of both divalent cations and EDTA. Addition of divilent cations strongly inhibited photosynthesis which could be partially restored by the subsequent addition of EDTA. But when these cations were not present in the assay medium the addition of EDTA greater than 1 mol m ³ decreased photosynthetic activity. The optimal orthophosphate concentration required for photosynthesis in these chloroplast preparations was 0.2–0.3 mol m ³. In contrast, the addition of pyrophosphate either in the light or dark inhibited photosynthesis. In a comparative study, chloroplasts were also isolated from oat and wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cultivar Hybrid C306) protoplasts. These chloroplast preparations were found to have properties similar to those determined for oat chloroplasts isolated by the mechanical method reported above.     

蠊一新属新种记述

近年来华北、东北有些省份的室内和槛船上发现一种新的(虫非)蠊,与其它(虫非)蠊混合发生,在局部地点成为优势种。经对有关单位送来室内和艦船上发生的多批标本进行鉴定,确定该虫隶属于姬蠊科(Pseudomopidae),是新属新种,与我所现存采自浙江天目山、陕西楼观台和山东青岛沙子口的野外标本同属一种。模式标本存放在中国农科院植物保护研究所。     

广东柑橘园的昆虫演替

自1937年到1973年的三十七年间,广东潮汕地区柑橘害虫的防治,大致可以分为四个阶段:即人工及土农药防冶阶段(1937—1952年)、有机氯杀虫剂阶段(1953—1958年)、有机磷杀虫剂阶段(1959—1964年)和杀螨剂兼用阶段(1965年至现在)。土农药阶段的昆虫特点是种类多、区系复杂。有机氯阶段淘汰了咀嚼式口器的主要害虫和适应能力比较差的吸收式口器害虫。有机磷阶段又淘汰了另一部分比较顽强的吸收式口器害虫。能产生抗药性的或新侵入、新发展的害虫种群数量上升,成为主要种类。这类害虫以橘全爪螨最为突出,三十七年间出现了三次显著变化。 导致柑橘园昆虫群落变化的主要原因在于不合理施用化学农药。它使天敌数量减少;有的害虫产生抗药性,或者由于繁殖力强,种群数量庞大;或栖息场所隐蔽,未受淘汰,成为再猖獗的虫源。作者调查和比较了施药与不施药的柑橘园昆虫区系后,见到施药柑橘园的昆虫种类较少,反映了昆虫区系的简化,但优势种群的数量则明显增多。 近年来,有些地区新侵入柑橘园成为优势种群的尺蛾科害虫,是由于引种未经检疫的带虫覆盖作物种苗——毛蔓豆所造成的。光绿橘天牛是由于施药后削弱了其竞争种——星天牛,才使种间关系改变的。吸果夜蛾的增加为害则与“柑橘上山”,开垦山地和旱地种柑有关。 提出控制柑橘害虫种群的途径,首先是合理施用化学农药:选用选择性农药的品种及改进施药方法,注意用药量和施药次数。其次为繁殖有效的天敌,例如腹管颏瓢虫或植绥螨等。农业技术防冶应作为一种基础措施而与化学防治及生物防治相结合,通过综合防治的途径,把柑橘害虫的防治推向新水平。     

北京及银川常见蟋蟀鸣叫习性与种类鉴定(直翅目:蟋蟀总科)

约从本世纪中叶起,昆虫分类学家注意到蟋蟀、蚱蜢、螽斯及蝉类雄虫的鸣声可用于鉴定种类。由于近代物理技术的发展,人们已能把昆虫鸣声准确录音,在示波器上显示其特征,并摄影制图,帮助分析鉴定。六十年代全世界已有三百余种鸣虫的鸣声作了录音带,这一成就大大推动了分类鉴定工作。如美国已被认识的蟋蟀原为65种,由于对鸣声的分析鉴定导致40个新种的发现,使总数达到105种。 1978—1982年,作者等把北京、银川常见的7种蟋蟀进行饲养和观察,以了解其生活     

中国常见蜚蠊种类及其为害、利用与防治的调查研究

蜚蠊是昆虫纲中一个较小的目,全世界已知五千余种,中国有记载的约二百种,五十年代后期上海医学院对本地区的蜚镰作了调查报道,七十年代初国内许多地区蜚蠊为害严重,不少单位开始采制标本对它进行研究.本文对中国室内常见蜚蠊种类的鉴定、生活习性、地理分布及其传播疾病、经济意义和防治方法作了综合报道,其中包括德国小蠊的两个近似种及一个中国新纪录属、种.
