SEASONAL INCIDENCE OF HELIOTHZS SPP. (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE) ON TOMATOES IN NORTH QUEENSLAND
Authors: Kay I. R. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe seasonal incidence of Heliothis spp. on tomatoes in north Queensland was determined by rearing adults from eggs collected from March to November in 1982, 1983 and 1984. H. armigera (Hubner) was abundant from March to May, its numbers were lower in June‐July, and it was abundant again after July. H. punctigera Wallengren numbers were low in the first half of the year but increased from August‐September to high levels. H. assulta Guenée was uncommon. Trichogrammatids were the main egg parasitoids recorded.
DETERMINATION OF SAMPLE SIZE FOR COUNTING MITES: A COMPARISON OF TWO METHODS1
Authors: Binns Michael R. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractA method recently suggested for determining sample size for counting mites from leaves on a disc following the use of a mite brushing machine is compared with one previously described. They are both shown to be special cases of a more general method. Neither is satisfactory for extremely non‐uniform distribution of mites, so care should be taken to use the brushing machine to give as uniform a distribution as possible.
TWO NEW AUSTRALIAN SPECIES OF BRACON F. (HYMENOPTERA: BRACONIDAE) PARASITIC ON PHYLACTEOPHAGA SPP. (HYMENOPTERA: PERGIDAE)
Authors: Austin A. D. , Faulds W. 
Published: April 2007

Abstract Bracon phylacteuphagus Austin sp. n. and Bracon cunfusus Austin sp. n. are described from southern Australia. Both are parasitoids of mature larvae and pupae of the eucalypt leafmining sawfly genus Phylacteophaga Froggatt and have been released in the north island of New Zealand in an attempt to control P. froggatti Riek. The latter was discovered there in March 1985 and is damaging ornamental and commercial eucalypt plantings. A key to separate the two species of Bracon F. is presented, along with notes on their relationships and biology. Additional comments are provided on other parasitoids of Phylacteophaga SPP.
COMPARISON OF SAMPLING METHODS AND DEVELOPMENT OF A SEQUENTIAL SAMPLING PLAN FOR THE ARMYWORMS MYTHZMNA CONVECTA (WALKER) AND PERSECTANIA EWINGZI (WESTWOOD) (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE)
Authors: Smith A. M. , McDonald G. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractLarval populations of the armyworms Mythimna convecta and Persectania ewingii in oat crops in the Western District of Victoria were randomly sampled using 4 sampling methods: suction sampling, direct counts, box sweeping and net sweeping (night and day). Each method's catch efficiency was calculated relative to suction samples; direct counts were more efficient than both sweeping methods. Sweeping methods collected 3.6 to 7.6% of the larvae present and appeared to be biased towards young larvae. Of the sweeping methods, only net sweeping at night provided a consistent measure of the age distribution and indicated when mature (damaging) larvae were present. For each sampling method, Taylor's power law and Iwao's patchiness regression methods were used to describe the spatial distribution; the regression coefficients, b and β, indicated a contagious distribution. Based on reliability, the optimum sample sizes were determined for estimating the mean larval density using suction sampling and sequential sampling plans were calculated. The relative costs and choice of ‘best’ sampling methods were discussed.

Authors: Spradbery J. P. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractIn New Guinea, nests of the wasp, Anischnogaster iridipennis are built of mud, with 1 to 18 flask‐like cells attached to rootlets, under overhanging banks in the tropical rainforests, usually attended by a single female and frequently parasitised by tachinids.
LABORATORY STUDIES ON THE LIFE HISTORY OF NOMADACRZS GUTTULOSA (WALKER) (ORTHOPTERA ACRIDIDAE)
Authors: Elder R. J. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe spur‐throated locust Nomadacris guttulosa (Walker) was reared under laboratory conditions for the first time. Females were larger and heavier than males and had 1–3 additional instars. Eye stripe number was the most useful indicator of instar number. Male nymphs changed colour from green to brown on average 1 instar earlier than females. Ratios of adult hind femur length/head capsule width and fore wing lengthlhind femur length were independent of sex. The ratios obtained were similar to those expected of the extreme solitarious phase of other locusts.The duration of the nymphal stage decreased with temperature; 137 d at 24°C; 62 d at 31°C and 60 d at 32°/39°C. Food type had no effect except at 27°C and 35% relative humidity (RH), where first‐instar nymphs fed daily on cut wheat seedlings failed to survive, but did so on wheat growing in tubes.Under continuous illumination and 35–48% RH, oviposition commenced earlier at 32°/39°C than at 31°C.

Published: April 2007

AbstractThe phenology of a native Tetrastichus sp. parasitic on Cystiphura schmidti on skeleton weed (Chondrilla juncea L.) in Australia, is described. Data are presented on parasitoid seasonality and host age preference. Its potential impact on the effectiveness of C. schmidti is briefly discussed.
A NEW SPECIES OF GLYCASPIS (HOMOPTERA: PSYLLIDAE) AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON HOST ASSOCIATIONS
Authors: Moore K. M. 
Published: April 2007

Abstract Glycaspis dulcieana sp. n. is described, and additional Eucalyptus hosts, one of which is an endangered species in New South Wales, are recorded. Eleven Glycaspis Taylor species were reared from local eucalypts occurring in the Yeppoon area of Queensland to examine and clarify previously recorded Glycaspis/Eucalyptus species associations. Advanced techniques for the separation of insect species appear to be a requisite for some species of Glycaspis.
THE IDENTITY OF TWO FABRICIAN SPECIES OF AMARYGMINI (COLEOPTERA. TENEBRIONIDAE) FROM AUSTRALIA WITH A KEY TO SPECIES GROUPS AND SOME SPECIES OF CHALCOPTEROIDES STRAND1

NATURAL ENEMIES OF CARDUINE THISTLES IN NEW SOUTH WALES1
Authors: Briese D. T. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractCollections were made from 7 introduced carduine thistles, Carduus nutans, C. pycnocephalus, C. tenuiflorus, Cirsium vulgare, Onopordum acanthium, O. illyricum and Silybum marianum, in the tablelands of New South Wales during 1985–1987. Twenty‐seven species of insect, 3 mites, 3 molluscs and 3 fungi were found attacking the plants to varying degrees. Apart from the fungi, these organisms were polyphagous and a large proportion were introduced species themselves. A notable gap in resource use was the virtual absence of endophages, particularly those attacking the capitula or roots of thistles. This contrasts markedly with the structure of the thistle fauna in their native European ranges, which is rich in species utilising these feeding niches. The prospects of finding effective biological control agents from these groups of insects therefore seems quite promising.
SELECTIVE OVIPOSITION BY DANAUS PLEXIPPUS (L.) (LEPIDOPTERA: NYMPHALIDAE) IN A MIXED STAND OF ASCLEPIAS FRUTICOSA AND A. CURASSAVICA IN SOUTHEAST QUEENSLAND
Authors: Zalucki M. P. , Oyeyele S. , Vowles P. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe numbers of eggs and larvae of wanderer butterfly were recorded on Asclepias fruticosa and A. curassavica growing in the same habitat in southeast Queensland. Many more immatures were found on A. curassavica, although this is a rare and inconspicuous host plant. The apparent preference for A. curassavica could be associated with the lower cardiac glycoside concentration of this species (370μg/0.1g dry leaf weight, SD = 156) compared with A. fruticosa (450 ± 193). We measured cardenolides using a modification of techniques found in the literature, which enbles us to measure glycosides in single leaves. A closer investigation of cardiac glycosides in plants with and without immatures across both species revealed no clear or consistent pattern. The difficulties of making conclusions about cardiac glycosides and wanderer butterfly oviposition based on comparisons of distribution of immatures on plant species are discussed and an alternative approach suggested.
TEMPORAL VARIATION IN COLOUR PATTERN POLYMORPHISM IN PHAULACRIDIUM VITTATUM (SJÖSTEDT) (ORTHOPTERA: ACRIDIDAE)
Authors: Dearn John M. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe hypothesis that the striped colour pattern morph in the wingless grasshopper, Phaulacridium vittatum (Sjöstedt), is associated with low viability of the CSCS genotype was tested by examining changes in morph frequency over the nymphal and adult stages of the life cycle in 2 populations in southern Victoria. There was no evidence of any significant change in striped morph frequency between instar II and adult. While these data do not support the low viability hypothesis, the dominance of the striped phenotype and the relatively low frequency of striped individuals in most populations makes the existence of viability differentials hard to detect. The stability and geographic variation of this polymorphic system indicates it is under strong, but as yet unknown, selective forces.
AN EFFICIENT TECHNIQUE FOR REARING PHLYCTINUS CALLOSUS BOHEMAN (COLEOPTERA: CURCULIONIDAE)
Authors: Horne Paul A. , Stacpoole Cheryl A. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractAn improved rearing technique is described for P. callosus. It involves isolating adult weevils into oviposition chambers, removing newly laid eggs to an incubation chamber to allow first instars to emerge before placing them onto food plants and collecting late instar larvae after 8 weeks. Mean survival of larvae from first instars to late instars is 54%± 7%. It enables continuous mass‐rearing of all development stages for laboratory bioassays.
DISPERSION OF ACYRTHOSIPHON KONDOI SHINJI (HEMIPTERA: APHIDIDAE) AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEQUENTIAL SAMPLING PLANS FOR CONTROL DECISIONS IN LUCERNE
Authors: Bishop A. L. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe dispersion of the bluegreen aphid Acyrthosipon kondoi Shinji in lucerne conformed to the negative binomial distribution and a high degree of contagion was evident from aggregation indices. These data were used, together with proposed treatement thresholds, to develop and test sequential sampling plans for this aphid based on a single stem sampling unit. Four plans, accounting for variations in plant growth stage and varietal susceptibility to A. kondoi were computed at 2 treatment threshold levels. One of these plans was tested on 3 lucerne varieties in the field. Treatments made on plan recommendations restricted yield losses to within expected limits.

APHIDS OF THE GENUS SITOBION OCCURRING ON GRASSES IN SOUTHERN AUSTRALIA
Authors: Hales D. F. , Chapman R. L. , Lardner R. M. , Cowen R. , Turak E. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThree forms of Sitobion Mordvilko occur commonly on grasses in southern Australia. S. nr fragariae (Walker), collected in Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia and Western Australia, has a diploid chromosome number of 18, and differs in electrophoretic mobility of enzymes at several loci from S. miscanthi (Takahashi), also with 2n = 18. A third form is here regarded as being derived from S. miscanthi, but differs from it in enzyme mobility at 2 loci and has 2n = 17, apparently resulting from an autosomal fusion. A fourth form, with 2n = 20, has been collected in the Sydney region on 2 occasions. It is electrophoretically identical to the 2n = 17 form. The 2n = 17 and 2n = 20 forms are concluded to be chromosomal races of S. miscanthi. The seasonal distribution of all forms is recorded; S. nr fragariae is common in spring, S. miscanthi (2n = 18) has been collected only in November‐December, and S. miscanthi (2n = 17,20) in November‐December and March‐July. This suggests different environmental tolerances for the 3 major forms.
TWO NEW SPECIES OF MICROPOLYTOXUS ELKINS FROM NORTHERN AUSTRALIA (HEMIPTERA: REDUVIIDAE: SAICINAE)

Published: April 2007

AbstractMicropolytoxus cavicolus sp.n. and M. australis sp.n. are described from northern Australia. The diagnosis of Micropolytoxus Elkins is modified to accommodate the new species, and notes on its relationship with the related saicine genus Polytoxus Costa are given. A key to species of Micropolytoxus is provided. M. cavicolus is known only from lava tube caves near Mt Surprise, north Queensland. It displays a number of adaptations to cave life, including reduced eyes, wings and body pigmentation, and is considered to be an obligate cave species.
THE LIFE HISTORY AND BIOLOGY OF PARALUCIA PYRODISCUS LUCIDA CROSBY (LEPIDOPTERA: LYCAENIDAE)
Authors: Braby M. F. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractObservations on the life history and biology of Paralucia pyrodiscus lucida Crosby were made in Victoria at Eltham‐Greensborough, Castlemaine and Kiata during 1987 and 1988. Details of the life cycle of P. p. lucida are presented and the early stages are described and compared with those of other species of Paralucia Waterhouse and Turner. P. p. lucida is uni‐ or bivoltine, overwinters as larvae and adults fly from late October to mid April, although the number of generations and flight period varies markedly with geographic location and prevailing climate. Larvae associate with Notoncus spp. ants and feed at night on a particular size or form of the host plant Bursaria spinosa var. spinosa. Larvae do not appear to diapause during winter but remain quiescent within the attendant ants’ nest at the base of the host plant. The effect of climatic constraints on larval activity, flight period and the life cycle of P. p. lucida are briefly discussed.
MORPHOLOGY OF ANTENNA AND MOUTHPARTS OF ADULT ADORYPHORUS COULONI (BURMEISTER) (COLEOPTERA: SCARABAEIDAE: DYNASTINAE)
Authors: McQuillan P.B. , Semmens T.D. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe head appendages of Adoryphorus couloni, a pasture pest in southeast Australia, are described and inferences are drawn about the beetle's biology. There is a lack of sexual dimorphism in the antennae. The long‐lived adults possess a full range of labial sensilla but the mandibles appear incapable of chewing. Hence trapping based on pheromones or feeding attractants is unlikely.
NATURAL ENEMIES AND OTHER SPECIES ASSOCIATED WITH SACCHARICOCCUS SACCHARI (COCKERELL) (HEMIPTERA: PSEUDOCOCCIDAE) IN THE BUNDABERG AREA, SOUTHEAST QUEENSLAND
Authors: De Barro P. J. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe pathogenic fungus Aspergillus parasiticus Speare, a “habitat destroyer”Cacoxenus perspicax (Knab), and a parasitoid Anagyrus saccharicola Timberlake are the major natural enemies of the sugarcane mealybug Saccharicoccus sacchari (Cockerell) in the Bundaberg area. Their abundance varied over a 17‐month period and may have been linked to January‐March rainfall. The number of An. saccharicola emerging from a mummy depended on the host size. Five insect predators, Chrysopa innota Walker, Elaunon bipartitus (Kirby), Nala lividipes (Dufour), Halmus ovalis (Blackburn) and Isauria aphidovora (Meyrick) and 3 additional fungal pathogens, Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff), Penicillium sp. and Cordyceps sp. are recorded. A parasitoid of C. perspicax, Chartocerus (Xana) sp. is also recorded. The ants, Pheidole megacephala (F.), Paratrechina obscura Mayr and Iridomyrmex sp. are involved in mutualistic behaviour with S. sacchari.

POPULATION GROWTH POTENTIAL OF DACTYLOPIUS CEYLONICUS GREEN (HEMIPTERA: DACTYLOPIIDAE) ON OPUNTIA VULGARIS MILLER
Authors: Sullivan P. R. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractDevelopment, survival, reproduction, sex ratios and population growth statistics of Dactylopius ceylonicus on Opuntia vulgaris at constant temperatures of 18, 22, 26, 30 and 34°C are reported. Populations of D. ceylonicus can increase at constant temperatures above 16.7°C and the rate of increase reaches a peak near 30°C. The most favourable temperatures for D. ceylonicus development, survival and reproduction were 26 and 30°C. The relevance of this to control of O. vulgaris and breeding of D. ceylonicus for field release are discussed.
AN IMPROVED SAMPLING METHOD FOR HETEROPSYLLA CUBANA CRAWFORD (HEMIPTERA: PSYLLIDAE) ON LEUCAENA LEUCOCEPHYLLA
Authors: Elder R. J. , Mayer D. G. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe distributions of eggs and nymphs of Heteropsylla cubana Crawford on Leucaena leucocephylla were studied at 4 sites in central Queensland. Current visual rating methods for eggs and nymphs were shown to be unsuitable in estimating population densities. Eggs and early instar nymphs of H. cubana were concentrated on the first fully expanded leaf and the 1 or 2 unexpanded leaves nearest to this leaf on the terminal. Both eggs and nymphs were spread over more leaves in terminals with a larger number of leaves. Later instar nymphs migrated to the stem and leaves closer to the apical bud. The small dimensions require that all counts be made under a microscope. Eggs should be counted in situ. Accurate estimates of nymphal populations were made by washing leaves in alcohol to dislodge nymphs. Tables are presented to enable estimation of populations of all instars on 7 terminal types from counts made using the alcohol washing technique.
SEXUAL DIMORPHISM IN THE ADULT ANTENNAE OF ANTITROGUS PARVULUS BRITTON AND LEPIDIOTA NEGATORIA BLACKBURN (COLEOPTERA: SCARABAEIDAE: MELOLONTHINAE)
Authors: Allsopp P. G. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractAntennae of both sexes of adults of Antitrogus parvulus and Lepidiota negatoria were examined using scanning electron microscopy following critical‐point drying. Males of A. parvulus have 7 large lamellae, the inner surfaces of which have ca 150,000 cup‐shaped placoid sensilla. Females have fewer and smaller lamellae, no placoid sensilla and few basiconic sensilla. Both sexes of L. negatoria have similar 3‐lamellate antennae with placoid sensilla and 2 types of basiconic sensilla. Sensilla differences suggest that male A. parvulus use pheromones to locate distant females, whilst in L. negatoria the antennal sensilla are used to locate host trees and proximate females.

DOSE RESPONSE AND SELECTION FOR PROPETAMPHOS RESISTANCE IN FIELD POPULATIONS OF LUCILIA CUPRINA (WIEDEMANN) (DIPTERA: CALLIPHORIDAE)
Authors: Levot G. W. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractThe toxicological response of field populations of Lucilia cuprina to propetamphos was correlated to that of diazinon suggesting that resistance to propetamphos is a direct consequence of existing diazinon resistance. However, the level of resistance to propetamphos was generally low in field strains despite diazinon resistance being close to fixation in wild populations. A laboratory selection of first instar larvae with propetamphos increased resistance more than 4‐fold. Resistance also increased to diazinon (3.7x), chlorfenvinphos (6.3x) and coumaphos (4.8x).

WORKER POLYMORPHISM AND NEST STRUCTURE IN MYRMECIA BREVINODA FOREL (HYMENOPTERA: FORMICIDAE)
Authors: Higashi S. , Peeters C. P. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractA large nest of Myrmecia brevinoda (with a soil mound 70 cm tall) contained 2576 workers and 1 queen. Other small ants, termites and various insect larvae were also found in uninhabited parts of the mound. Although workers exhibit considerable size variation (length: 13–36 mm), relative growth (head length versus head width) among workers is not allometric. Thus workers are monomorphic although they fall into 2 obvious size classes which overlap broadly. Small workers were abundant in the lower parts of the nest while larger workers prevailed in the upper parts. Field observations confirmed the occurrence of size polyethism, i.e. larger workers were engaged in hunting, defence and extranidal building, while smaller workers excavated soil from inside the nest.
