Download or read book Revision of the Afrotropical Phaeogenini Ichneumonidae Ichneumoninae with description of a new genus and twelve new species written by Pascal Rousse and published by PenSoft Publishers LTD. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents a comprehensive revision of the tribe Phaeogenini (Ichneumonidae: Ichneumoninae) in the Afrotropical region. The tribe encompasses about 10% of the species within the subfamily, most of them exhibiting an unusual habitus, which makes them readily identifiable within Ichneumoninae. Lusius and Arearia are for example highly speciose genera whose taxonomic placement has oscillated over the years. Of the 32 genera and about 400 species included in the tribe to date, seven genera and 11 species were previously reported from the Afrotropical region. We describe a new genus, record two additional genera and describe 12 new species elevating these totals to 10 and 23, respectively. Both dichotomous and matrix keys are provided to facilitate their identification. All taxa are fully illustrated with high quality images. These images and online keys are freely available on the Iziko South African Museum website www.waspweb.org.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ichneumonoidea is a vast and important superfamily of parasitic wasps, with some 60,000 described species and estimated numbers far higher, especially for small-bodied tropical taxa. The superfamily comprises two cosmopolitan families - Braconidae and Ichneumonidae - that have largely attracted separate groups of researchers, and this, to a considerable extent, has meant that understanding of their adaptive features has often been considered in isolation. This book considers both families, highlighting similarities and differences in their adaptations. The classification of the whole of the Ichneumonoidea, along with most other insect orders, has been plagued by typology whereby undue importance has been attributed to particular characters in defining groups. Typology is a common disease of traditional taxonomy such that, until recently, quite a lot of taxa have been associated with the wrong higher clades. The sheer size of the group, and until the last 30 or so years, lack of accessible identification materials, has been a further impediment to research on all but a handful of ‘lab rat’ species usually cultured initially because of their potential in biological control. New evidence, largely in the form of molecular data, have shown that many morphological, behavioural, physiological and anatomical characters associated with basic life history features, specifically whether wasps are ecto- or endoparasitic, or idiobiont or koinobiont, can be grossly misleading in terms of the phylogeny they suggest. This book shows how, with better supported phylogenetic hypotheses entomologists can understand far more about the ways natural selection is acting upon them. This new book also focuses on this superfamily with which the author has great familiarity and provides a detailed coverage of each subfamily, emphasising anatomy, taxonomy and systematics, biology, as well as pointing out the importance and research potential of each group. Fossil taxa are included and it also has sections on biogeography, global species richness, culturing and rearing and preparing specimens for taxonomic study. The book highlights areas where research might be particularly rewarding and suggests systems/groups that need investigation. The author provides a large compendium of references to original research on each group. This book is an essential workmate for all postgraduates and researchers working on ichneumonoid or other parasitic wasps worldwide. It will stand as a reference book for a good number of years, and while rapid advances in various fields such as genomics and host physiological interactions will lead to new information, as an overall synthesis of the current state it will stay relevant for a long time.

Download or read book African Cereal Stem Borers written by Andrew Polaszek and published by Cabi. This book was released on 1998 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An assemblage of approximately twenty moth species belonging to the families Crambidae, Pyralidae and Noctuidae constitute the most important cereal pests in many parts of Africa. The caterpillars of these moths bore into the stems of maize, sorghum, millet and rice, often killing the plant, and are commonly known as stem or stalk borers. The cereals attacked are grown on small farms to feed the farmers and their families and are of great importance as the staple food for the population in most parts of Africa. Complex control measures, including the use of chemicals, are often inappropriate. This book provides the information necessary for pursuing integrated pest management of African cereal stem borers, in particular strategies using natural enemy components. The book begins by characterizing the economically important species by region and by their biology and host plants. The book then describes in detail the taxonomy and rearing techniques for the moths, their larvae and their natural enemies. It includes illustrated keys of species and lists of distributions and hosts, and it concludes with a summary of current control measures and those being investigated.
