This study evaluated arthropod community composition in monodominant Callisthene fasciculata forest canopy throughout the high water and dry periods in the northern region of the Pantanal in Mato Grosso, Brazil, as a part of a project about arboreal canopy arthropods associated with monodominant areas in this region. Sampling was conducted on 12 individuals of C. fasciculata, six from the high-water season (2010) and six from the dry season (2011), using insecticide fogging. A total of 28,197 arthropods were collected. Hymenoptera (the majority being Formicidae), Diptera, Acari, Thysanoptera, Hemiptera and Coleoptera, were the most representative groups. Although the analysis did not show variation in the abundance of individuals between the high water and dry seasons, the arthropod community varied significantly in taxa composition. Opiliones, Embioptera, Ephemeroptera and Scorpiones occurred only during the high-water period, with Polyxenida and Strepsiptera occurring only in the dry season. Thysanoptera was more abundant in the dry season, showing a relationship with the beginning of the C. fasciculata flowering period. In general, the high water and dry seasons maintain distinct communities in this habitat, illustrating how the temporal variation in the phenology of C. fasciculata imposed by the Pantanal’s hydrological regime alters the composition of the associated arthropod communities in the canopy of these monodominant formations in the Pantanal of Mato Grosso.","PeriodicalId":54476,"journal":{"name":"Revista Colombiana de Entomologia","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72949391","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}

Este trabajo de investigación que se realizó de marzo a agosto del 2014 tuvo como objetivos identificar y describir morfológicamente al barrenador del fruto y tallo del cacao, no reportado para las condiciones de este valle. Las recolectas se realizaron en campos cacaoteros del valle de Zarumilla y la crianza de los estados inmaduros, en el laboratorio de Entomología de la Universidad Nacional de Tumbes. Los resultados permitieron determinar que la especie cuya larva perfora los tallos y frutos del cacao es Carmenta theobromae. Se describen las principales características morfológicas de esta especie, referente a los estados de huevo, larva, pupa y adulto de ambos sexos. Además, del material biológico recolectado en campo durante el muestreo, se identificaron dos parasitoides a nivel de familia, un díptero Tachinidae recuperado de larvas y un himenóptero Chalcididae a partir de pupas. Se concluye que la especie que barrena los frutos de cacao en las plantaciones del valle de Zarumilla es C. theobromae.

The fungi were inoculated by adding 2 µl of a suspension with 1 x 107 spores/ml. Afterwards the radial strains growth in mm/d was measured during 15 d. To determine the interaction between the three strains, the three lepidopteran powders, control PDA and the five temperatures, a factorial analysis 3 x 4 x 5 was used; fungi growth data was analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test. The macromorphological characteristics of each species were studied, finding significant statistical differences in the growth at different temperatures, with respect to the control. The optimal growth for the three fungi was at 28 °C. Strain B1 supplemented with D. considerata powder grew 2.76 ± 0.06 mm/d, M1, G. mellonella 2.77 ± 0.02 mm/d and M1 HPI-210 D. considerata 3.27 ± 0.06 mm/d. Strains B1 grew 0.45 ± 0.03 mm/d and M1 1.22 ± 0.03 at 30 °C, while HPI-210 did not grow after 28 °C.
