In agroecosystems, adults disperse between habitats, foraging on crop and non-crop hosts, oftentimes vectoring a harmful plant pathogen, Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al. (Xanthomonadales: Xanthomonadaceae). Understanding the spatiotemporal dynamics of this species in crops and the surrounding non-crop habitat may lead to improved pest management programs that reduce pathogen transmission. Here, we used 3 yr of trapping data across a southeastern US agroecosystem to characterize spatiotemporal distribution patterns of the glassy-winged sharpshooter in a variety of habitats. Adult glassy-winged sharpshooters were captured weekly on yellow sticky cylinder traps. Spatial Analysis by Distance Indices (SADIE) was used to identify significant aggregations and interpolated maps generated to characterize distribution patterns of adults within season and between yrs. Overall, the distribution of glassy-winged sharpshooters varied seasonally with individuals captured primarily in woodlands and fallow fields during early season mo. Later in the growing season and as population levels increased, sharpshooters were captured more commonly in crop habitat, including wheat and corn fields. By evaluating spatiotemporal distribution patterns, we identified likely sources of spring migration into cropping systems. Thus, pest management strategies for the glassy-winged sharpshooter should seek to limit early spring migration from non-crop habitat into crop fields. Resumen La chicharrita de alas cristalinas, Homalodisca vitripennis (Germar) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), es una especie de insecto generalista que se alimenta del xilema y es una plaga agrícola. En los agroecosistemas, los adultos se dispersan entre hábitats, alimentándose de hospederos cultivados y no cultivados, a menudo es un vector de un patógeno dañino para las plantas, Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al. (Xanthomonadales: Xanthomonadaceae). Al entender la dinámica espaciotemporal de esta especie en los cultivos y su hábitat no agrícola alrededor del campo puede conducir a mejores programas de manejo de plagas que reduzcan la transmisión de patógenos. Aquí, usamos 3 años de datos de captura en un agroecosistema del sureste de los EE. UU. para caracterizar los patrones de distribución espaciotemporal de la chicharrita de alas cristalinas en una variedad de hábitats. Se capturaron los adultos de la chicharrita de alas cristalinas en trampas cilíndricas adhesivas amarillas. Se utilizó el análisis espacial por índices de distancia (SADIE) para identificar agregaciones significativas y se generaron mapas interpolados para caracterizar los patrones de distribución de adultos dentro de la temporada y entre años.

When beetle eggs at the base of the plant or on the soil and beetle larvae on the foliage were offered to the predator on bok choy plants (Brassica rapa L.; Brassicaceae), C. rufilabris larvae killed 5.3 times more beetle larvae than eggs, likely due to prey location. Killed eggs were located on the base of the plant; no eggs placed on the soil, close to the base of the plant, were killed or damaged. In the simple environment of a Petri dish, the predator showed a 5.2-fold preference for aphids over M. ochroloma eggs and larvae presented separately. When 3 prey options were presented, first instar C. rufilabris killed 4.8 times more M. persicae nymphs than beetle eggs and 3.8 times more nymphs than beetle larvae. The killing rate of M. ochroloma eggs and larvae by C. rufilabris decreased about 73% when M. persicae nymphs were present. When only eggs and larvae of M. ochroloma were offered in Petri dishes, the predator did not exhibit any prey preference. Although C. rufilabris displayed a prey preference for M. persicae nymphs over immature M. ochroloma in the laboratory, it is important to evaluate the predation on these 2 types of prey in the field.

Cuando se ofrecieron huevos del escarabajo en la base de la planta o encima del suelo y larvas del escarabajo encima del follaje al depredador en plantas de bok choy (Brassica rapa L.; Brassicaceae), C. rufilabris mató 5.3 veces más larvas que huevos, probablemente debido a la ubicación de la presa. Los huevos muertos se ubicaron en la base de la planta; ningún huevo encima del suelo, cerca de la base de la planta, fue depredado ni dañado.

Romero-Nápoles, Clemente de Jesús García–Ávila","doi":"10.1653/024.105.0408","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1653/024.105.0408","url":null,"abstract":"Summary Hellula phidilealis (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) is a species associated with cultivation of crucifers. The damage it produces depends on the phenological stage of the plants, its population density, and the instar in which it is found. For this reason, it is important to identify the instars of the species to contribute to defining management tactics focused on its control in hosts of economic importance. The Dyar rule establishes that the width of the cephalic capsule of the larvae increases at a regular geometric progression. The objective of this study was to determine the rates of increase in the size of the cephalic capsules to determine the number of larval instars of H. phidilealis. Because it is a species that has recently acquired importance in Mexico, it is necessary to conduct basic research to determine its biology to enable implementation of appropriate management tactics for each instar. To obtain the images, a Carl Zeiss® (SteREO Discovery V.20) microscope equipped with a Canon® (EOS 50D) camera was used, and JPEG images were captured for later measurement with the program Image J (v. 1.53e). The larval instars of H. phidilealis were adjusted to the Dyar rule (R2 = 0.9639) with a change rate of 0.50, 0.58, 0.92, and 0.54 for instars L2, L3, L4, and L5, respectively; the average of the rates was 0.63. Sumario Hellula phidilealis (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) es una especie asociada con el cultivo de crucíferas, el daño que produce depende de la etapa fenológica de las plantas, la densidad poblacional y del ínstar en el que se encuentre.

La Ley de Dyar establece que la anchura de las cápsulas cefálica de las larvas, se incrementa de acuerdo con una progresión geométrica regular. El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar las tasas de incremento en el tamaño de las cápsulas cefálicas para determinar el número de ínstares larvales de H. phidilealis. Al ser una especie que recientemente ha adquirido importancia en México, es necesario desarrollar investigación básica que permita conocer la biología de la plaga para implementar las tácticas de manejo pertinentes para cada ínstar.
