{"title":"Fine Structure and Distribution of Antennal Sensilla of the Predatory Clerid Beetle, Thanasimus lewisi (Coleoptera: Cleridae)","authors":"Jian Zhang, Haonan Shi, Shouhui Sun, Zhonghui Zhang","doi":"10.3157/061.148.0203","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3157/061.148.0203","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT The predatory clerid beetle Thanasimus lewisi (Jacobson) (Coleoptera: Cleridae) is an important predator of bark beetles (Scolytidae) and has been used in China for the biological control of the larch bark beetle Ips subelongatus Motschulsky and the spruce bark beetle Ips typographus Linnaeus. In this study, the number, external morphology and distribution of antennal sensilla of T. lewisi were determined using scanning electron microscopy. The filiform antennae of both sexes of both species consist of the scape, pedicel, and nine flagellomeres. Two types of sensilla chaetica (SC1 and SC2), four types of sensilla basiconica (SB1, SB2, SB3 and SB4), two types of sensilla trichodea (ST1 and ST2), and Böhm's bristles (BB) were identified according to the morphology and fine structure of each type of sensilla in both sexes. No difference in shape, structure, sensilla distribution and typology was observed between the sexes. The density of sensilla was greater on the last 3 than on the first 8 segments. SC1, SC2, ST1 and ST2 occurred on all antennal segments in both sexes. SB1, SB2 and SB3 were absent on the first 4 segments of the antennae in both sexes. SB4 were found only on the last 2 segments of the antennae. BB only occurred on the scape and pedicel. The distal antennal sensilla of T. lewisi had notably more sensilla than proximal ones in type and number, indicating this is the main area to detect environmental stimuli for feeding or oviposition. These structures likely have roles in the host locating and habitat searching behavior of adult T. lewisi and suggest future studies on the olfaction and host location behavior of T. lewisi and other coleopteran predators.","PeriodicalId":51200,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the American Entomological Society","volume":"13 1","pages":"231 - 246"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82037013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We now add a second new species, Panorpa apscisacera n. sp., also from Northern Thailand, which has nearly immaculate pale-yellow wings with only a pronounced stigma. The male has a blunt, vestigial bifid anal horn, and thin, bare ventral parameres. Additionally, we describe Neopanorpa appendicema n. sp. with mesad-curled male hypovalve apices and large, basomesal lobes, a relatively large species, N. inchoata n. sp., with overlapping elliptical hypovalves and incomplete apical bands, N. setosiloba n. sp. with huge bristly lobes on the mesal margin of the male gonostyles, and N. mandangensis n. sp. with a narrow 3rd tergum process extending to the posterior margin of the 4th tergum. Neopanorpa nielseni Byers, 1965, previously known from northern Vietnam and southern China, has recently been discovered in northern Thailand. Bittacus leptocaudus Byers, 1965, known from a lone male has been rediscovered and locality details and photo of the habitat provided. These bring the number of species of Mecoptera occurring in Thailand to 22 (19 Neopanorpa, two Panorpa, and one Bittacus) and the number of Mecoptera species known from Indochina to 56 (48 Neopanorpa, three Panorpa, 4 Bittacus, and one Bicaubittacus). A key to the species of Mecoptera in Thailand with illustrations is provided. DNA was extracted from specimens and the DNA Barcode, mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) gene fragment sequenced and analyzed for 19 of the 22 species of Thai Mecoptera. The results are figured as a Neighbor-Joining tree. บทคัดย่อ แมลงแมงป่องสกุล Panorpa ไม่เคยมีรายงานจากทางตอนใต้ของเทือกเขาฮิมาลายา (Himalaya) มาก่อน จนกระทั่งในปี พ.ศ. 2562 แมลงแมงป่องสกุลนี้ได้ถูกรายงานเป็นครั้งแรกในประเทศไทย งานวิจัยนี้ได้ค้นพบ แมลงแมงป่องชนิดใหม่ Panorpa apscisacera n. sp. จากภาคเหนือและเป็นชนิดที่สองของประเทศไทย ลักษณะ เด่นของปีกสีเหลืองอ่อนเกือบทั่วปีก มีตาปีก (stigma) ชัดเจน anal horn ในเพศผู้สั้นและแยกเป็นสองแฉกแต่ ไม่ชัดเจน ventral paramere บางและไม่มีขนปกคลุม นอกจากนี้ยังค้นพบแมลงแมงป่องในสกุล Neopanorpa 4 ชนิดใหม่ ได้แก่ ชนิด N. appendicema n. sp. เป็นชนิดที่มีขนาดค่อนข้างใหญ่ ส่วนกลางของ hypovalve ม้วนขด และ basomesal lobe ขนาดใหญ่ ชนิด N. inchoata n. sp. มี hypovalve รูปร่างยาวและวางซ้อนทับ กัน แถบสีที่ปลายปีกไม่สมบูรณ์ ชนิด N. setosiloba n. sp. ในเพศผู้มี bristly lobes ขนาดใหญ่ที่ gonostyles และชนิด N. mandangensis n. sp. ด้านบนของท้องปล้องที่สามมี notal organ เรียวและยื่นยาวไปถึงส่วนท้าย ของปล้องที่สี่ แมลงแมงป่องชนิด N. nielseni Byers, 1965 ถูกค้นพบเป็นครั้งแรกในประเทศไทยจากภาคเหนือ ซึ่งเคยมีรายงานจากภาคเหนือของประเทศเวียดนามและทางตอนใต้ของประเทศจีน และได้มีการค้นพบชนิด Bittacus leptocaudus Byers, 1965 อีกครั้งจากที่เคยรายงานเพศผู้เพียงหนึ่งตัว มีการเพิ่มเติมข้อมูลของพื้นที่ เก็บตัวอย่างและภาพถ่ายในธรรมชาติ การรายงานนี้ทําาให้จําานวนชนิดของแมลงแมงป่องในประเทศไทยเพิ่ม ขึ้นเป็น 22 ชนิด ใน 3 สกุล ได้แก่ สกุล Neopanorpa จําานวน 19 ชนิด ","PeriodicalId":51200,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the American Entomological Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"201 - 228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90236302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
