EFFECT OF SOIL MOISTURE ON BROOD BALL PRODUCTION BY ONTHOPHAGUS BINODIS THUNBERG AND EUONITICELLUS INTERMEDIUS (REICHE) (COLEOPTERA: SCARABAEINAE)
Authors: Barkhouse J. , Ridsdill‐Smith T. J. 
Published: April 2007

b Onthophagus binodis produced many brood balls from a dung pad in soil of 4% moisture, but few at 2% or 1% (wilting point 3.5%). Euoniticellus intermedius produced consistently high numbers of brood balls at all 3 soil moistures. At the 2 drier levels O. binodis placed brood balls only in the soil moistened by the dung, but E. intermedius always placed brood balls throughout the available soil. E. intermedius in dry soil produced clumps averaging 8.7 brood balls and lined the walls of the tunnels with dung, thus preventing their collapse. In moist soil both species produced brood balls singly in tunnels throughout the available soil.

THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON EGGS AND IMMATURE STAGES OF CULEX ANNULIROSTRIS SKUSE (DIPTERA: CULICIDAE)
Authors: Mottram P. , Kay B. H. , Kettle D. S. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractNo immature stages of Culex annulirostris were found during field sampling in 1979–1980 when the average water temperature was < 17 °C; they reappeared when the average water temperature was 19 °C and reached the peak density (mean 107 immatures/cylinder) at 26.5 °C.The effect of 6 temperatures (15–40°C) on egg hatching, development and survival of the immature stages of Cx annulirostris in the laboratory showed that at 15 and 40°C, eggs failed to hatch and larvae died in the first instars. The optimum temperatures for egg hatching and the survival of immature stages were 25 and 30°C. At these temperatures, 85 and 82% respectively of egg rafts hatched, the mean number of larvae per raft was 258 ± 9.8 and 260 ± 11.4 with immature survival of 83.5 and 79.0% respectively. Mean time to hatch at 20–35°C ranged from 1.2 d (35°C) to 2.9 d (20 °C). Developmental times from first instar to adult ranged from 7.1 d (35 °C) to 25.2 d (20 °C). The threshold for development of the immatures was 15.6 ± 2.5°C and the thermal constant was 142.9 ± 26.5 day—degrees (incubation temperatures 20–35°C). At less suitable temperatures of 20 and 35 °C, hatching (57.5 and 45%), number larvae per raft (mean 139.8 ± 9.8 and 102.6 ± 14.2) and survival were low.
SEASONAL ABUNDANCE OFMUSCA VETUSTISSIMAWALKER AND OTHER CATTLE DUNG FAUNA IN CENTRAL AUSTRALIA
Authors: Matthiessen J. N. , Hall G. P. , Chewings V. H. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractBush flies,Musca vetustissimaattracted to a human, and arthropod fauna attracted to fresh cattle dung in 24 hours, were sampled every 2 weeks for 2 years (1980–1982) near Alice Springs in central Australia. Substantial rain fell in both summers, but it was more prolonged in the second. The bush fly occurred and bred throughout the year, although its abundance was usually low. The only major increase in bush fly abundance occurred after the first summer's rainfall caused the growth of new herbage. This was followed by increased feeding on dung by adult flies and intensified breeding. Bush fly abundance was low in the second summer, despite evidence of a long period of continuous breeding. A variety of dung‐feeding and predatory beetles and also mites was almost always present, although numbers were usually low. The introduced dung beetlesEuoniticellus intermediusandOnthophagus gazellanumerically dominated samples. Dung fauna abundance also increased after significant rainfall, particularly in the second summer. Dissections of the dung beetles showed that they bred at these times.
OVIPOSITION BEHAVIOUR AND DISPERSAL OF PERTHID A GLYPHOPA COMMON (LEPIDOPTERA: INCURVARIIDAE)
Authors: Mazane Z. , Justin M. J. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractOviposition behaviour of the jarrah leafminer moth Perthida glyphopa was observed during the seasonal flight period in April‐May. After alighting on trees, the gregarious males restricted their movements to the branches, whereas the solitary females searched for oviposition sites on the leaves. The females laid most eggs at 14–22 °C in diminishing light or overcast conditions, preferring young leaves in the lower portion of the crown. They dispersed more readily than males.

REDUCTION IN TRAP CAPTURES OF FEMALE FRUIT FLIES (DIPTERA: TEPHRITIDAE) WHEN SYNTHETIC MALE LURES ARE ADDED
Authors: Hill A. R. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractCaptures of females of 4 species of fruit flies on or in both coloured sticky traps and protein baited traps were reduced by synthetic male attractants. Captures of female Dacus tryoni (Froggatt), Dacus neohumeralis Hardy and Dacus cacuminatus (Hering) were reduced by both cuelure and methyl eugenol, and female Ceratitis capitata (Weidemann) by Capilure®. These effects were sufficient to overcome the normally attractive stimuli of colour and odours associated with yeast.

AGE COMPOSITION AND OVERWINTERING OF CULEX ANNULIROSTRIS SKUSE (DIPTERA: CULICIDAE) NEAR DENILIQUIN, IN THE MURRAY VALLEY OF NEW SOUTH WALES
Authors: Russell Richard C. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractSamples of mosquitoes collected at bait (dry‐ice, chicken and human) and resting during spring, summer, autumn and winter over 3 years at a site near Deniliquin were dissected for parity and age class to determine population age structure. The proportion parous varied between months and years, but generally increased from spring through summer and autumn. Females old enough to transmit arboviruses (2‐parous or more) were collected during each season every year. The oldest female recorded was 6‐parous. The species typically was not attracted to bait in winter, and overwintered as predominantly parous females in a state of quiescence. These results reveal a potential for arboviruses to overwinter with parous females.

Authors: Adidharma Dhamayanti 
Published: April 2007

AbstractA perspex cage for extended studies of small arthropods on intact growing leaves is described. The cage is easy to make, cheap and overcomes the wrinkling of the leaf surface as it expands or grows within the cage. It has been used successfully in studies of the two‐spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch. The cage may be used with a microscope fitted with a cage attachment and light fixed to an adjustable stand.
EFFECTS OF TEMPERATURE AND PHOTOPERIOD ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF VANESSA KERSHAWI McCOY AND JUNONIA VILLIDA GODART (LEPIDOPTERA: NYMPHALIDAE)
Authors: James David G. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe effects of rearing temperature and photoperiod on aspects of the biology of 2 migratory butterflies, Vanessa kershawi and Junonia villida were investigated. Cool (20°C) temperatures and a short photophase (10 h) accelerated development in both species, producing small adults with low body weights. Warm (30°C) temperatures and a short photophase also resulted in undersized adults in J. villida. In V. kershawi warm temperatures and a long photophase (15 h) had this effect. Warm and cool temperature resulted in normal adult size and weight at either photoperiod in J. villida. In V. kershawi warm, short or cool, long days produced larger and heavier adults. Development of V. kershawi under short photophases appeared to deviate the sex ratio in favour of females. Exposure to cool, short days (V. kershawi, J. villida) or warm, long days (V. kershawi) during development seemingly produced migration‐adapted adults.
EFFECTS OF HIGH TEMPERATURE ON SURVIVAL OF EGGS OF HELIOTHIS ARMIGERA (HÜBNER) AND H. PUNCTIGERA WALLENGREN (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE)
Authors: Qayyum A. , Zalucki M. P. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractEggs of Heliothis armigera and H. punctigera were exposed once to a high temperature (35–44°C) at 2 humidities for various periods (1/12–4 h) 12–24 h after oviposition. In both species exposure to 35 and 38°C had little affect on hatching, but prolonged exposures to temperatures above 38°C decreased it. H. punctigera eggs withstood short exposures to high temperatures better than H. armigera. Long exposures to high temperatures retarded development in both species. H. punctigera required more time than H. armigera to complete development at all temperature‐exposure combinations. High humidity prolonged development at high temperatures(> 35°C).
NATURAL ENEMIES OF PERTHIDA GLYPHOPA COMMON (LEPIDOPTERA: INCURVARIIDAE)
Authors: Mazanec Z. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractNatural enemies of immature stages of the jarrah leafminer, Perthida glyphopa are listed. Ten species of Hymenoptera were recorded as parasitoids, achieving 54 and 14% mortality of feeding larvae at low and high leafminer population densities in warm and cool climates, respectively.Large feeding larvae were the most preyed upon (33%) by 9 species of birds at intermediate population densities of the leafminer. At high population density, 3 species of ants collected some 30% of the fallen mature larvae and a further 21% were eaten by earwigs, carabid beetles and ants during summer aestivation.
SEASONAL POPULATIONS IN THE LIFE CYCLE OF MYGALOPSIS MARKI BAILEY (ORTHOPTERA: TETTIGONIIDAE)1
Authors: Lymbery A. J. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractAdult males of Mygalopsis marki Bailey have 2 peak singing periods per year. This results from the emergence of adults in late spring/early summer and in early autumn. Adults emerging in summer were larger than those emerging in autumn. Summer and autumn adults did not represent successive generations. Samples from natural populations and rearing times in the laboratory indicated that summer adults were derived from eggs which hatched in December of the previous year while autumn adults were derived from eggs which hatched in late September or October of the previous year. Insects which emerge as adults in summer and autumn are referred to as different seasonal populations. There is potential for gene flow between the 2 seasonal populations, but the actual extent of gene exchange is not known.
EFFECTS OF TEMPERATURE AND LENGTH OF PHOTOPHASE ON DEVELOPMENT AND DIAPAUSE IN CYSTIPHORA SCHMIDTI (RÜBSAAMEN) (DIPTERA: CECIDOMYIIDAE)
Authors: Moore A. D. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractImmature stages of the gall midge Cystiphora schmidti (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), a biocontrol insect specific to skeleton weed were studied in the laboratory at different constant temperatures and different lengths of photophase.The rate of development increased linearly within the range 15 to 3°C, with an estimated developmental zero of 10°C. Development rates were similar within each temperature treatment irrespective of length of photophase.At 15°C, diapause was induced in larvae at photophases of 12.5 h or less. The critical photoperiod was 12 to 13 h. Diapause was also induced at 12.5°C regardless of the length of photophase. Termination of diapause appeared related to increases in both length of photophase and temperature.Field observations of population trends and the winter diapause of C. schmidti were explained using these laboratory findings.
OVARIAN INHIBITION AMONG NESTMATES OF EXONEURA BICOLOR SMITH (HYMENOPTERA: XYLOCOPINAE)1
Authors: Schwarz M. P. , Scholz O. , Jensen G. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractOverwintering nests of the semisocial bee Exoneura bicolor Smith contain one or 2 inseminated females with enlarged ovaries and a varying number of uninseminated females with small ovaries. By transferring combinations of colony nestmates to artificial nests we show that mated egg‐layers have an inhibitory effect on ovarian development of unmated females. Unmated females which are separated from winter egg‐layers show significant ovarian enlargement within 16 days. This indicates that during winter, insemination and ovarian development are not causally related, but are dependent on other factors such as social dominance.
THE ADJUSTMENT OF BUOYANCY OF PUPAE OF THE TREE‐HOLE BREEDING CULICOIDES ANGULARIS LEE AND REYE (DIPTERA: CERATOPOGONIDAE)
Authors: Murray M. D. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe basic buoyancy of pupae of C. angularis is controlled by a gaseous space within the cephalothorax which keeps pupae floating vertically. Extension and contraction of the abdomen enables an increase or decrease in abdominal volume, and the consequent changes to the specific gravity of the pupae enable ascent or descent within the water of the tree‐hole. Extension and contraction of the abdomen are controlled by the respiratory requirements of the pupae. Contraction of the abdomen is also part of an escape reaction from the surface of the water.

FOODS SELECTION BY LARVAE OF HELIOTHIS ARMIGERA (HÜBNER) (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE) ON GRAIN SORGHUM
Authors: Teakle R. E. , Byrne V. S. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractOn grain sorghum, fifth and later instars of Heliothis armigera caused practically all observed damage to ovaries, i. e. damage responsible for yield loss. By contrast, early instars fed almost exclusively on anthers. The early preference for anthers and synchrony of larvae and sorghum head development indicate that larvae of H. armigera would be highly susceptible to larvicides timed at 100% anthesis.
