Abstract

Abstract The efficacy of pitfall traps baited with pheromone and cereal oil in capturing Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val and T. castaneum (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) was low (trap catch) in mill and simulated warehouse settings. In a simulated warehouse experiment, strains of Tribolium Macleay recently taken from mills were caught 24% less often in traps than were laboratory strains, and T. confusum was caught 40% less often than T. castaneum. Both species were found together in all flour samples taken from a Canadian flour mill. A comparison of the species ratio in flour samples with that found in traps revealed that T. confusum was caught less often in traps than was T. castaneum. In flour, T. castaneum burrowed more than did T. confusum, and there were differences in burrowing behaviour between the four T. castaneum strains. Mills infested with T. confusum may have higher levels of infestation than was previously thought, indicating that further research into beetle behaviour in mills is needed.

在工厂和实验室环境中取样:菌株和物种之间的差异

摘要在工厂和模拟仓库环境中，以信息素和谷物油为饵的诱捕器对黄颡鱼(Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val)和黄颡鱼(T. castaneum (Herbst))(鞘翅目:拟甲科)的捕获效果较低。在模拟仓库实验中，最近从工厂采集的Tribolium Macleay菌株在陷阱中捕获的频率比实验室菌株低24%，而T. confusum的捕获频率比T. castaneum低40%。在加拿大一家面粉厂的所有面粉样本中都发现了这两种物种。将面粉样品中的种比与诱捕器中发现的种比进行比较，发现诱捕器捕捉到的褐毛螟比捕捉到的褐毛螟少。在面粉中，castaneum比T. confusum挖洞更多，并且四种castaneum菌株在挖洞行为上存在差异。被混淆锥虫侵染的工厂可能比以前认为的有更高的侵染水平，这表明需要对工厂中的甲虫行为进行进一步的研究。
