The morphometric variations of honeybee from different locations of the southern guinea and northern guinea savannah ecological zone of Nigeria were studied. Fifteen morphological traits were measured for variation on six hundred (600) worker honeybee samples purposively collected from ten different locations within the ecological zone. Data collected were subjected to one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), SNK test (α=0.05) and Pearson correlation between morphometric characters were determined. At the same time a dendrogram of morphological proximity based on the fifteen morphological features was constructed. Results showed that morphometry variation (p<0.05) existed within the honeybee population in the guinea savannah agro-ecological zone of Nigeria, high morphological similarities were observed in the tibia length of the hind leg and the thorax length. The honeybee samples were classified into two distinct morphoclusters (A and B). Honeybee samples within morphocluster A were closely related in terms of the examined morphometric features and geographic distance (CV=1.65). In contrast, within cluster B, honeybee samples were closely related despite the vast geographical distance (CV=3.30, p<0.05). The body length was significantly positively correlated with the leg size, while hind wing length was positively associated with the proboscis, abdominal, thoracic, body length and hooks. Morphometric variations found in A. mellifera of guinea agro-ecological zone could significantly impact conservation and future bee breeding programmes of Nigeria.\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":53438,"journal":{"name":"Polish Journal of Entomology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43549091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, farmers spray pesticides on their harvest to control the pest attack with little consideration for the consequences of their actions. Due to health and environmental concerns associated with pesticide applications, farmers, marketers, and end-users are seeking alternative safer routes to handling this infestation problem. Thus, this study investigated the response of mated female C. maculatus to odour cues from different bean types using two-arm and four-arm olfactometers. The volatile organic compounds from the preferred beans (Borno brown and black-eyed beans-cultivars of Vigna unguiculata Walper, 1843 and adzuki bean – Vigna angularis (Willdenow) Ohwi & Ohashi, 1969), were analysed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS) techniques and headspace volatile organic compounds were tested in 2-arm olfactometer with the view to identifying possible attractants or deterrents that could be used in effective control of storage pest. The results indicated that (a) the female C. maculatus responded discriminatorily to odour stimuli from the bean types tested, (b) eighteen volatile compounds were present in the bean types tested and (c) the volatile compounds identified varied in abundance profile. These suggest that host location and selection behaviours by female C. maculatus are moulded by the types and concentrations of the volatile compounds present in the beans.\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":53438,"journal":{"name":"Polish Journal of Entomology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49184317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of fungi on P. papatasi larvae, pupae, and adults using light microscopic analysis, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and histopathological studies. Specifically, larvae, pupae, and adult P. papatasi were infected with the entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae. Scanning electron microscope and histopathological methods were used to investigate the destructive impact of the fungi on the external and internal structures of P. papatasi. The results revealed propagation of the conidia on the cuticles of all P. papatasi life stages, including on the compound eyes, leg setae, thorax, wings, and abdomen of the adults. Histological sections of the control and treated larvae, pupae, and adults showed many alterations and malformations in the body and tissues of all life stages after 72 h. These results demonstrated that B. bassiana was more effective than M. anisopliae as a biological control of phlebotomine sand flies.

We estimate the influence of ultraviolet-C on the leg morphology and trichoid sensilla of Tribolium castaneum (Herbst, 1797) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), zero-day-old pupae were irradiated with UV-C at a distance of 35 cm for 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 min. Changes in leg morphologies and trichoid sensilla were determined using light and scanning electron microscopes. UV-C radiation caused the abnormalities of an adult’s legs that were classified into three levels; mild, moderate, and strong. Legs of the resulting adults were developed into malformed structures that lacked clear segmental identity. The severity of leg abnormalities was recorded in a dose-dependent manner. UV-C significantly decreased the length and width of the femur, tibia, and tarsus. In the strongly affected level, the femur was reduced in size while the tibia and tarsus were completely deleted, and there was no evidence of claws. Scanning electron microscopy showed the wrinkled cuticle on the leg segment, and the sensilla of the resulting adults appeared less in number. After UV-C radiation, the trichoid sensilla on the femur became longer and wider, but the trichoid sensilla on the tibia were shorter and narrower. Taken together, UV-C irradiation during pupal stage interfered development of legs and brought about specific malformation features.\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":53438,"journal":{"name":"Polish Journal of Entomology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47443136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present study, the insecticidal effect of licorice roots aqueous extract (LRAE), petroleum oil, KZ light mineral oil 96% (EC), water and an emulsion (1/4 L LRAE + ¼ L petroleum oil + ½ L KZ light oil 96% (EC)) treatments in a ratio 1 L: 29 L water were used in Matabi® sprayer of 30 L capacity against B. zonata pupae in sandy and clay soils. In sandy and clay soils LRAE reduced B. zonata population by 74.44% and 87.55% while petroleum oil, KZ light mineral oil 96% (EC) prevented flies emergence (100% reduction). Water treatment suppressed B. zonata population by 78.61% in sandy soil but caused 100% population reduction in clay soil. The emulsion reduced B. zonata population by 96.94% in sandy soil and 100% in clay soil. The best method for application of the emulsion was to spray as one target spray technique for eight seconds that was sufficient to obtain suitable coverage on soil with spray speed 1.2 km / hour. The persistence of the emulsion that highly reduced B. zonata larval populations was 3.5 and 4.5 days in sandy and clay soils, respectively.
