Significance of wing interference patterns as taxonomic characters in Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)
Wing interference patterns (WIPs) and wing interference colors have been highlighted in taxonomy for their usefulness in the discrimination of species, particularly in the case of some parasitic wasps. Here, we evaluate the usefulness of these stable structural color patterns as species-specific characters in nine species of Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) within seven genera including Aphidus Nees, 1819; Binodoxys Mackauer, 1960; Diaeretiella Starý, 1960; Ephedrus Haliday, 1833; Lysiphlebus Förster, 1863; Praon Haliday, 1833; and Trioxys Haliday, 1833. Six color parameters including red, green, and blue (RGB) as well as hue, saturation, and value were compared. Preliminary statistical analysis of color values, as well as a qualitative comparison of patterns, were performed. Our findings show that both qualitative and quantitative measurements can discriminate selected taxa at the genus and species level. Moreover, different biotypes of Lysiphlebus fabraum (Marshall) and Aphidus matricariae Haliday present identical color patterns (WIPs) with only slight qualitative differences. Despite some slight qualitative differences in WIPs between sexes, quantitative measurements were not sexually dimorphic. This is the first study of its kind in the subfamily Aphidiinae and to provide a preliminary WIP-based key to the studied species of Aphidiinae. Our findings show that WIPs and WICs are stable and can be useful for museum collections.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research (JZSER)is a peer-reviewed, international forum for publication of high-quality research on systematic zoology and evolutionary biology. The aim of the journal is to provoke a synthesis of results from morphology, physiology, animal geography, ecology, ethology, evolutionary genetics, population genetics, developmental biology and molecular biology. Besides empirical papers, theoretical contributions and review articles are welcome. Integrative and interdisciplinary contributions are particularly preferred. Purely taxonomic and predominantly cytogenetic manuscripts will not be accepted except in rare cases, and then only at the Editor-in-Chief''s discretion. The same is true for phylogenetic studies based solely on mitochondrial marker sequences without any additional methodological approach. To encourage scientific exchange and discussions, authors are invited to send critical comments on previously published articles. Only papers in English language are accepted.
