为探讨椰心叶甲啮小蜂(Tetrastichus brontispae Ferriere)主动搜索和识别寄主的机理,采用Y型嗅觉仪测定椰心叶甲啮小蜂[Brontispa longissima(Gestro)]对椰子健康心叶、健康老叶、虫害叶和机械损伤心叶、以及椰心叶甲幼虫、蛹、成虫和四龄幼虫虫粪的行为反应进行了研究.结果表明,椰心叶甲啮小蜂对椰子的健康心叶、老叶、机械损伤心叶、椰心叶甲各龄幼虫、蛹和成虫、1龄幼虫和成虫为害心叶的气味没有趋向反应,而对椰心叶甲4龄幼虫虫粪和2～5龄幼虫为害24 h后的心叶具有明显的趋向反应,选择气味源的虫数显著高于对照,而且对幼虫为害心叶的趋向反应随着为害叶的幼虫数的增多和为害时间的延长而增强.     

Sublethal effect of avermectin and acetamiprid on the mortality of different life stages of Brontispa longissima (Gestro) (Coleoptera: Hispidae) and its larvae parasitoid Asecodes hispinarum Bouček (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae)

The beneficial parasitoid Asecodes hispinarum Bouček plays an important role in integrated pest management (IPM) of the coconut leaf beetle, Brontispa longissima (Gestro), in China. A. hispinarum females parasitize 3rd to 4th instars B. longissima larvae. Hatched parasitoid larvae develop within the host, and parasitoid adults emerge through holes that they chew through the cuticle of the host. Although chemicals serve as the main short term control agents, the compatibility of biological and chemical control has never been investigated for this system. This study examined the responses of immature and adult B. longissima and its larval parasitoid A. hispinarum to avermectin and acetamiprid. Avermectin caused complete mortality of 2nd to 4th instar larvae, and of adults of B. longissima at 10, 15 and 2 d after treatment, respectively. However, 26.7% of the 2nd instar larvae, 55.3% of the 4th instar larvae, and 74%, of adult B. longissima were still alive 40 d after acetamiprid application. Following avermectin exposure, 17.5%, 9.2% and 23% of mummified B. longissima larvae contained viable adult parasitoids for the parasitoid egg, larva and pupa treatments, respectively, and the numbers of dead parasitoids per mummy were 3.3, 7.2 and 13.3 for the egg, larva and adult treatments, respectively. However, for acetamiprid treatment, 70–75.9% of mummified B. longissima larvae contained viable adult parasitoids in all three stage treatments, and the number of dead parasitoids per mummy was 2.8, 2 and 3.4 in egg, larva and adult treatments, respectively. This study showed that a sublethal dose of avermectin is more toxic than acetamiprid to B. longissima and A. hispinarum. Therefore, direct contact of the parasitoid with avermectin should be avoided when this insecticide is used to control B. longissima.     

椰甲截脉姬小蜂对寄主龄期的选择性和适合性

研究了椰甲截脉姬小蜂对寄主椰心叶甲各龄幼虫的选择性。结果表明:椰甲截脉姬小蜂可寄生椰心叶甲各龄幼虫,但偏爱寄生2,3龄幼虫,选择系数分别为0.33825和0.31348,极显著高于1,4,5龄幼虫。寄生各龄椰心叶甲幼虫的姬小蜂在羽化率、每寄主育出蜂数2指标中存在差异,寄生4龄幼虫的处理中,羽化率和每寄主育出蜂数分别为71.03%和40.87头,明显高于寄生其他龄期的幼虫,因此4龄椰心叶甲幼虫对椰甲截脉姬小蜂的生长发育最适合。     

寄主龄期对松粉蚧抑虱跳小蜂寄生和发育的影响

通过限制选择和自由选择试验,研究松粉蚧抑虱跳小蜂(Acerophagus coccois Smith)在扶桑绵粉蚧(Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley)的1~3龄若虫与雌成虫体上的寄生及其子代生长发育情况。结果表明:在限制选择和自由选择的2种试验中,松粉蚧抑虱跳小蜂均可寄生扶桑绵粉蚧的1~3龄若虫和雌成虫,其中对2龄若虫的寄生率最高,分别是41.20%和45.00%;对粉蚧雌成虫的寄生率最低,但每头僵蚧平均羽化出蜂数最多,分别为9.42头和7.00头,子代雌蜂比例也最大;子代雌蜂在粉蚧1龄若虫体内发育的历期最长,为14.62 d;在粉蚧雌成虫上发育的历期最短,为13.97 d;在粉蚧1龄若虫体内发育的子代蜂的个体最小,在粉蚧雌成虫上发育的子代蜂个体最大。因此,利用松粉蚧抑虱跳小蜂防治扶桑绵粉蚧,应以粉蚧2龄若虫为防治对象,以粉蚧雌成虫为繁殖寄主。

Adaptation of Habrobracon hebetor (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) to Rearing on Ephestia kuehniella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) and Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Food characteristics strongly regulate digestive enzymatic activity of insects through direct influences on their midgut mechanisms. Insect performance is better on diets that contain nutrients in proportions that fit its digestive enzymes. Little is known about the influences of rearing history on parasitism success of Habrobracon hebetor Say. This research focused on the effect of nutrient regulation on survival, development, and parasitism of H. hebetor. Life history and digestive enzyme activity of fourth-stage larvae of H. hebetor were studied when reared on Ephestia kuehniella Zeller. This parasitoid was then introduced to Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner), and above-mentioned parameters were also studied in the first and fourth generations after transfer. In term of parasitism success, H. hebetor preferred E. kuehniella over He. armigera. When the first and fourth generations of He. armigera-reared H. hebetor were compared, the rearing history affected the life history and enzymatic activity of the parasitoid. A better performance of H. hebetor was achieved after it was reared on He. armigera for the four generations. Because, digestive α-amylase and general protease of the parasitoid were matched with the new host, it used reserve energy for a better performance. Thus, a better performance of H. hebetor could be obtained when the parasitoid was reared on its original host for at least four generations.     

寄生蜂与寄主的不同配比对椰心叶甲啮小蜂子代的影响

椰心叶甲啮小蜂(Tetrastichus brontispae Ferrière)是一种重要的椰心叶甲蛹寄生蜂。为了探讨繁育椰心叶甲啮小蜂的最佳寄主密度,研究1对椰心叶甲啮小蜂与椰心叶甲1日蛹的不同配比对椰心叶甲啮小蜂寄生与繁殖的影响。结果表明,雌蜂与椰心叶甲1日龄蛹的不同配比对椰心叶甲啮小蜂寄生率、每寄主出蜂量和后代性比有显著影响,当雌蜂与椰心叶甲1日龄蛹配比为1∶1时,椰心叶甲啮小蜂的寄生率和出蜂量最高,其寄生率为100%,每蛹平均出蜂量为27.67头,显著高于其它配比,但雌蜂与椰心叶甲1日龄蛹配比为1∶6时,椰心叶甲啮小蜂后代性比(雌蜂的百分比)最高为88.04%,显著高于其它配比。平均每雌怀卵量、出蜂率、羽化率在椰心叶甲啮小蜂与椰心叶甲蛹的不同配比之间无显著差异。     

An Adaptive Kernel Smoothing Method for Classifying Austrosimulium tillyardianum (Diptera: Simuliidae) Larval Instars

In insects, the frequency distribution of the measurements of sclerotized body parts is generally used to classify larval instars and is characterized by a multimodal overlap between instar stages. Nonparametric methods with fixed bandwidths, such as histograms, have significant limitations when used to fit this type of distribution, making it difficult to identify divisions between instars. Fixed bandwidths have also been chosen somewhat subjectively in the past, which is another problem. In this study, we describe an adaptive kernel smoothing method to differentiate instars based on discontinuities in the growth rates of sclerotized insect body parts. From Brooks’ rule, we derived a new standard for assessing the quality of instar classification and a bandwidth selector that more accurately reflects the distributed character of specific variables. We used this method to classify the larvae of Austrosimulium tillyardianum (Diptera: Simuliidae) based on five different measurements. Based on head capsule width and head capsule length, the larvae were separated into nine instars. Based on head capsule postoccipital width and mandible length, the larvae were separated into 8 instars and 10 instars, respectively. No reasonable solution was found for antennal segment 3 length. Separation of the larvae into nine instars using head capsule width or head capsule length was most robust and agreed with Crosby’s growth rule. By strengthening the distributed character of the separation variable through the use of variable bandwidths, the adaptive kernel smoothing method could identify divisions between instars more effectively and accurately than previous methods.     

松突圆蚧花角蚜小蜂雌性生殖系统、寄生习性及幼期发育的研究

松突圆蚧花角蚜小蜂（Coccobius azumai Tachikawa）是松突圆蚧（Hemiberlesia pitysophila Takagi）的主要寄生性天敌之一。解剖花角蚜小蜂的雌性生殖系统,发现其卵巢左右成对,每侧卵巢各由3条卵巢管组成;两侧卵巢管端丝集结在一起形成悬带,左右两侧悬带分离,不形成中悬带。通过电镜扫描观察,发现花角蚜小蜂产卵器上具毛形感觉器、感觉孔、表皮刺和腔形感觉器。花角蚜小蜂的寄生过程分为：搜索、寄主定位、寄主试探、穿刺、产卵和梳理等几个步骤。生殖方式为两性生殖和孤雌生殖,重寄生产雄性个体。个体发育经过卵、幼虫、蛹和成虫等4个虫态。     

长尾潜蝇茧蜂寄生后橘小实蝇幼虫体内4种酶活性的变化

测定长尾潜蝇茧蜂（Diachasmimorpha longicaudata）寄生的4日龄橘小实蝇（B. dorsalis）幼虫体内过氧化氢酶（CAT）、过氧化物酶（POD）、超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、酚氧化物酶（PO）活性。结果表明：幼虫在被寄生后,在其免疫系统的调节下产生大量的活性氧自由基（ROS）,致使被寄生的幼虫较未被寄生的3种抗氧化物酶（CAT、POD、SOD）活性明显高,然而被寄生的幼虫PO活性明显低于未被寄生的幼虫。这4种酶协同作用,从而有效减少寄主体内过量的ROS,保证寄生蜂能有效地寄生,提高寄生蜂的存活率。

Parasitism,Emergence, and Development of Spalangia endius (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) in Pupae of Different Ages of Bactrocera cucurbitae (Diptera: Tephritidae)

The wasp Spalangia endius Walker (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) is a major parasitoid of the pupae of fruit flies, which are a common agricultural pest. An understanding of this intricate host–parasitoid interaction could provide basic information necessary for the sustainable integrated biological control of fruit flies. In this study, we investigated the effect of S. endius on different-aged pupae of the melon fly Bactrocera cucurbitae Coquillett by using choice and nonchoice tests under laboratory conditions. We showed that S. endius females oviposited, and their progeny successfully developed, in different-aged pupae of B. cucurbitae regardless of the method of exposure. There was an oviposition preference for 3–5-d-old pupa. The highest mean percentage parasitism occurred on 4- and 5-d-old hosts, followed by 2- and 3-d-old hosts. The average development time for both males and females was significantly longer in 6–7-d-old hosts than in the younger host stages. Adult females that developed from younger host pupae (2–5-d old) were significantly heavier than those from older host pupae (6–7-d old), and they also lived longer. The sex ratio (proportion of females) of the parasite progeny decreased with an increase in host age. Host mortality also decreased gradually as the pupal age increased. The differences in development time, body weight, and longevity between females and males were significant. These results suggest that S. endius is a good candidate for the biological control of B. cucurbitae.

Development of a Method for Rearing Nezara viridula (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) on a Semi-solid Artificial Diet

A method for rearing the southern green stinkbug, (Nezara viridula L.) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), using a modified lygus semi-solid artificial diet was developed. First to second-instar nymph were reared in a density of 631.5 ± 125.05 eggs per Petri-dish (4 cm deep × 15 cm diam). Second instar to adult were reared in a density of 535.0 ± 112.46 s instar nymphs per rearing cage (43 × 28 × 9 cm). Mating and oviposition occurred in popup rearing cages (30 × 30 cm), each holding 60–90 mixed sex adults of similar age. Adults emerged 35.88 ± 2.13 d after oviposition and survived for an average of 43.09 ± 9.53 d. On average, adults laid 223.95 ± 69.88 eggs in their lifetime, for a total production of 8,099 ± 1,277 fertile eggs/oviposition cage. Egg fertility was 77.93% ± 16.28. Egg masses held in petri-dishes had a total hatchability of 79.38% ± 20.03. Mortality of early nymphs in petri-dishes was 0.64% ± 0.12 for the first instar and 1.37% ± 0.45 for second instar. Late nymphal mortality in rearing cages was 1.41% ± 0.10, 3.47% ± 1.27, and 4.72% ± 1.29 for the third, fourth, and fifth instars, respectively. Survivorship from nymphs to adults was 88.48% ± 2.76. Using artificial diet for rearing N. viridula could reduce cost by avoiding time-consuming issues with daily feeding fresh natural hosts and insect manipulation. It could increase reliability and simplicity of bug production, which should facilitate mass rearing of its biological control agents.

Bioassay evaluation of the entomopathogenic fungi, Beauveria bassaina Vuellemin against eggs and nymphs of Bemisia tabaci Gennadius (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae)

This study was carried out to determine the lethal effect of the entomopathogenic fungi, Beauveria bassaina Vuell. on eggs, young and old nymphs of the whitefly, Bemisia tabaci Genn. Mortality percentage was significantly differed based on stage of B. tabaci and conidial concentrations of B. bassina. Average of the infection level to insect was very low particularly in eggs with only 4.49%, even with higher conidial concentrations (6 x 10(6) conidia mL(-1)). Whereas, it was higher with 1st and 2nd instars (42.045%) and 3rd and 4th instars (35.93%). Three parameters was assessed with B. tabaci eggs, namely; egg infection, egg hatchability and crawlers emergence. Egg mortality percentages averaged 1.2, 4.27 and 8.0% with fungal concentration 2 x 10(6), 4 x 10(6) and 6 x 10(6) conidia mL(-1), respectively. Daily infection percentages were varied depend upon the conidial concentration where the highest infection rate of eggs was occurred with 6 x 10(6), followed by 4 x 10(6) conidia mL(-1). Egg hatch was very high, while the mortality among the emerged crawlers was neglectable compared with the check. Efficiency of B. bassaina on whitefly nymphs also was varied based on the insect instar and fungal concentration. Mortality percentages were obviously higher to young nymphs (1st and 2nd instars) than to older ones (3rd and 4th instars). The results indicated that nymphs were highly susceptible to fungal treatment compared with eggs. Additionally, pathogenicity and virulence of B. bassaina against B. tabaci immatures was not indicated by LC50 only, but also, by the time in days (LT50) required to achieve 50% mortality of an insect.
