This book was released on 1972 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, a review of the Chrysomelinae of the United State and Canada, includes a checklist and compilation of keys to the 136 species. One new species, Leptinotarsa collinsi, is described. This is one of the larger subfamilies with about 3,000 species represented in all areas of the world. The North American species are here grouped into seve tribes, athough Entomolscelini, Prasocurini, and Pharatorini are of doubtful validity. I follw crowson and arnett in using the subfamily name Chrysomelinae in the broad sense, equal in rank to Chriocerinae and Eumolpinae which I leave in Chrysomelidae.

Download or read book Biology of Chrysomelidae written by P. Jolivet and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As in most groups of insects, scientific research on the Chrysomelidae began in Europe in 1758, with the description of a few genera and species by the Scandinavian entomologists C. von Linne, I.C. Fabricius, and others. As the 19th century dawned, many systematic entomologists took up the study of chrysomelid beetles, together with other groups of beetles, and many new species and genera were described from all parts of the world. This trend has, of course, continued down to the present time. However, researches on the Chrysomelidae did not remain restricted to systematics, and many new lines of study have been followed, especially in the present century, by workers who have benefitted from the advances made in related fields of pure and applied entomology. Much has been achieved in the study of the Chrysomelidae, as elsewhere, and it is the aim of the present book to provide a summary and guide to these achievements. It is also to be expected that this book will provide a stimulus for further studies on the Chrysomelidae, so that we can anticipate continuing progress in our knowledge and understanding of this group through the endeavours of an ever-increasing number of scientists. I offer my congratulations to all concerned in the preparation of this book and my best wishes for its success.
Download or read book Research on Chrysomelidae 3 written by Pierre Jolivet and published by PenSoft Publishers LTD. This book was released on 2011-12-21 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on Chrysomelidae vol. 3 continues a series which began under Brill Academic Publishers, Leiden, with volume 1 in 2008. Volume 2 appeared in 2009 and had four regularly submitted papers and the Proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on the Chrysomelidae (held 6-8 July, 2008 at Durban, South Africa) with nine papers based on presentations to this meeting. The present volume also combines a number of regular papers with the proceedings of a symposium. In 2010, the European Symposium on the Biology of the Chrysomelidae was held within the frame of the IXth European Congress of Entomology (ECE) at Budapest, Hungary, on August 23. Hungary ? as the host country of the congress - has a long tradition of entomological research and always had a marked bridging role in the social life of entomologists of Europe. The ECE has been co-organized by the Hungarian Entomological Society which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2010. The Hungarian Entomological Society is one of the oldest scientific societies in Hungary with continuous activity, including the 1950s, when most Hungarian societies were dissolved by the communist government. This congress offered an important opportunity for entomologist to exchange ideas, results, and social matters. On top of all, the city of Budapest provided a beautiful background to this memorable scientific and social event. We, the organisers of the Symposium on Chrysomelidae, are proud and happy to see our conference represented by five papers based on contributions to it in vol. 157 of ZooKeys (Research on Chrysomelidae vol. 3). Four more papers on leaf beetles complete this volume. We thank authors and publishers for helping to make research on leaf beetles more visible and easier to access.

Download or read book New Developments in the Biology of Chrysomelidae written by Pierre Jolivet and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-25 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes what is actually known about the biology of Leaf Beetles. It is the most recent study in the field. As we are well aware, Chrysomelidae, one of the three largest families of beetles, are of great economic importance since they can be a serious pest to crops or, on the other hand, can be used to destroy imported weeds. This is due to the selectivity of their feeding preferences. In this way, Chrysomelidae are an invaluable tool for studying plant selection mechanisms. The many and varied topics dealt with in this book cover almost all aspects of phylogeny, classification, paleontology, parasitology, biogeography, defenses, population biology, genetics and biological control as well as many other subjects. The most renowned specialists in these fields have been chosen to put together a diverse, state-of-the-art publication. Few beetle families have been studied in such detail as the Chrysomelids. This is not only due to their economic importance, but also to their incredible variety of forms and behaviors. There are no less than 40,000 species currently in existence worldwide, but probably 100,000 species have existed since the Jurassic, when they first came into being with the Cycadoids and other primitive plant families, later to diversify during the Cretaceous with the advent of flowering plants.
Download or read book 02 First Report of Cottonwood Leaf Beetle Chrysomela Scripta Coleoptera Chrysomelidae in South America written by Amanda Rodrigues de Souza and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The insect pest invasions in forest plantations were significantly increased in the latest decades. The forestry genera most planted for commercial purposes in the world are Eucalyptus, Pinus, Populus, Acacia, Toona, among others. In South America species of Populus and Salix are secondary in importance to industry but are commonly used as urban trees. The leaf beetles of the Chrysomelidae family are the main insect pest affecting poplar plantations in North America, especially of the genus Chrysomela, where Chrysomela scripta is consider the most harmful species. C. scripta is endemic of North America, being more abundant in poplars plantations in the United States. The aim of this work was report for the first time the presence of C. scripta in Brazil. In July, 2016 some beetles unidentified were observed feeding in trees of Salix nigra and Populus deltoides in an urban area of Botucatu municipality in Su00e3o Paulo State, Brazil, causing complete defoliation. In June 2017 were observed in Piracicaba. Adults, larvae, pupae and eggs were collected and reared in laboratory. These specimens were identified as the exotic species Chrysomela scripta (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae). This is the first detection of this exotic pest outside their natural range is important for the development of the sanitary surveillance strategies to prevent the expansion of this species and evaluate their impact in Salix humboldtiana, a native species. Studies to determine the bioecology and distribution of C. scripta in Brazil are ongoing.

Download or read book Research on Chrysomelidae written by Pierre Jolivet and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are an estimated 40,000 species of chrysomelids, or leaf beetles, worldwide. These biologically interesting and often colorful organisms, such as the tortoise beetles, have a broad range of life histories and fascinating adaptations. For example, there are chrysomelids with shortened wings (brachypterous) and elytra (brachelytrous), other species are viviparous, and yet other leaf beetles have complicated anti predator-parasitoid defenses. Some species, such as corn rootworms (several species in the genus "Diabrotica") constitute major agricultural crop pests. "Research on Chrysomelidae 2" is a the second volume of a series of volumes on the Chrysomelidae edited by Jolivet, Santiago-Blay, and Schmitt.
