Stenodactylus mauritanicus

description: Stenodactylus mauritanicus Guichenot, 1850
1850 Stenodactylus Mauritanicus Guichenot, Exploration scientifique de l’Algérie pendant les années 1840, 1841, 1842 publiée par ordre du gouvernement et avec le concours d’une commission académique. Sciences Physiques. Zoologie V. Histoire Naturelle des Reptiles et des Poissons: 5.
Guichenot (1850) refers to at least three specimens: two specimens in the MNHN collection, collected by Levaillant and Bravet, and one specimen observed by himself near Oran. The MNHN collection still holds three specimens labeled as types or former types: MNHN 6768 (labeled as “ Type ” on the card and “ Lectotype ” on the vial), collected by Guichenot from Oran and MNHN 2339 and 6769 (both labeled as “ Paralectotype ” on the cards and the vials), collected by Levaillant (Oran) and Bravet (spelled Bravais on the card in the MNHN, where it is said to come from Algiers), respectively. These three specimens are obviously the ones mentioned by Duméril and Duméril (1851): 47, “ Oran: M. Guichenot, M. Levaillant, M. Bravais”) and Duméril (1856: 487, which can be translated as “the museum owns the three specimens used for the description. They have been collected in Oran by Guichenot and by Levaillant and Bravais”). We thus agree with Brygoo (1990) that the three specimens MNHN 6768, 6769 and 2339 are the original syntypes. However, contrary to what Brygoo (1990) implies, it is clear that Guibé (1954) did not make a valid lectotype designation when he referred to specimen MNHN 6768 as “the holotype ” for a taxon that was based on more than one specimen, as likewise explained above for Stenodactylus guttatus Cuvier, 1829 (the Code Art. 74.5). We have been unable to find a valid lectotype designation for this nomen.
Even though the locality marked on the label of one of the specimens (MNHN 6769) is “ Alger ” (= Algiers), Guichenot (1850) states that the species only occurs in the surroundings of Oran. As it is evident from Guichenot’s (1850) text, “ Alger ” was at the time used not only for the city itself but also for most of present-day Algeria, and it is often difficult to know which area it referred to. It seems, however, that Guichenot (1850), like Duméril and Duméril (1851) and Duméril (1856) later, interpreted the locality information in the MNHN catalogue as “ Oran ” for all three specimens, possibly based on their knowledge of where Bravet was collecting.
Name-bearing type: three extant syntypes, Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle MNHN 2339, 6768 and 6769. Type locality: Algeria, surroundings of Oran.
Proposed status: Stenodactylus mauritanicus Guichenot, 1850.

The syntypes of petrii have been examined by Arnold (1980) in the morphological revision of the genus Stenodactylus, where photographs of one of them can be seen. We therefore consider certain that they belong to the species currently called Stenodactylus petrii.

Stenodactylus stenurus

description: Stenodactylus stenurus Werner, 1899
1899 Stenodactylus stenurus Werner, Zoologische Garten (Frankfurt am Main) 40: 16.
This nomen was based on 13 specimens in the possession of Dr. Franz Werner (Werner 1899), which are thus all syntypes. Werner gave their collection localities as “Meraïer, Tuggurth” (now El Meghaier and Touggourt in eastern Algeria), “ Tunis ” and “Tripolis”. Two specimens currently in the collection of the Natural History Museum were donated by Werner and can be identified as part of the syntypes: BMNH 1946.8.23.56 (formerly 99.2.1.10) from Tripoli and listed in the catalogue as “one of the types of S. stenurus ” and BMNH 94.7.25.1 from Touggourt (pers. obs.). Two other specimens in the Naturhistorisches Museum Wien are also part of the type series (see Kratochvil et al. 2001): NHMW 17281:1 (from Touggourt) and 17281:2 (from El Meghaier). Werner (1909) later synonymized this nomen with S. petrii.
When Kratochvil et al. (2001) revalidated this nomen for a species closely related to S. petrii, they listed one of the Wien syntypes (NHMW 17281/2) as lectotype in their re-description, aiming at designating it as lectotype (L. Kratochvil, pers. comm.). They failed, however, to provide “an express statement of the taxonomic purpose of the designation” making their lectotype designation invalid (see Art. 74.7.3 of the Code). The name-bearing type is thus still the original type series of 13 syntypes.
Name-bearing type: 13 syntypes examined by Werner (1899), at least 4 of which are still extant: Natural History Museum BMNH 1946.8.23.56 (formerly 99.2.1.10) and BMNH 94.7.25.1; Naturhistorisches Museum Wien NHMW 17281:1 and NHMW 17281:2. Type locality: El Meghaier and Touggourt (Algeria), Tunis and Tripoli.
Proposed status: Stenodactylus stenurus Werner, 1899, pending further study. The systematics of the petrii - stenurus complex is in need of further revision (see Metallinou et al. 2012).

Doumergue (1901) gives no information on the number of specimens examined for the description of this nomen. He used at least one specimen: an animal from “Méchéria” (= Mecheria, 33°31’N 0°15’W), sent to him by Hiroux, and illustrated in the plates (Plate 5, Figures 7 and 7a). We have been unable to locate this specimen or any other syntype. The illustrated specimen can easily be identified as Stenodactylus mauritanicus by the short and thick tail, short snout, high head and convex snout profile.
Name-bearing type: at least one specimen collected by Hiroux in Mecheria, illustrated in Figures 7 and 7a of Plate 5 of Doumergue (1901). This specimen is currently lost. Type locality: Mecheria, Algeria.
Proposed status: subjective junior synonym of Stenodactylus mauritanicus Guichenot, 1850.

description: Stenodactylus elimensis Barbour, 1914
1914 Stenodactylus elimensis Barbour, Proceedings of the New England Zoological Club 5: 79.
This nomen was established by Barbour (1914) based on a single adult specimen collected by J. C. Phillips and W. M. Mann at Wady Gharandel, Sinai. From the description of the itinerary given by Phillips in Barbour (1914), it is obvious that the collection locality is in the lower part of Wadi Gharendel (= Gharandel), approximately around 29°15’N 32°55’E. This specimen is still extant in the Museum of Comparative Zoology—Harvard University (MCZ R-9631, see http://mczbase.mcz.harvard.edu/guid/MCZ:Herp:R-9631). It can be easily identified as Stenodactylus petrii, in accordance with the synonymy in Loveridge (1947) and Arnold (1980). Baha el Din (2006) and Metallinou et al. (2012) suggest that S. petrii might comprise several taxonomic units and propose that a thorough study would be necessary in order to fix the systematics of this complex.
Name-bearing type: Museum of Comparative Zoology—Harvard University MCZ R-9631, holotype by monotypy. Type locality: Lower parts of Wady Gharandel, Sinai, Egypt (around 29°15’N 32°55’E).

1943 Stenodactylus stenodactylus zavattarii Scortecci, Missione Biologica Sagan—Omo, Volume Settimo, Zoologia I, Mammalia – Aves – Reptilia – Amphibia – Pisces: 294.
This nomen is based on two specimens collected in “Elolo” on 29/07/1939 and 03/08/1939. According to Largen and Spawls (2006), Elolo, in Kenya, is now called Banya (= Bani, 4.39°N 36.23°E), as can also be seen on the map available at http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/imw/txu-oclc-6654394-nb-37-4th-ed.jpg (accessed on 19/02/2013). These two specimens MZUF 23878 and MSNM Re 3359, which are both syntypes, are still present in Italian collections: specimen MSNM Re 3359 collected on 29/07/1939 is found at the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Milano and specimen MZUF 23878 collected on 03/08/1939 at the Museo di Storia Naturale dell’Università di Firenze - La Specola. We have examined the former syntype and pictures of the latter and we agree that they are both specimens of Stenodactylus sthenodactylus.
We currently refrain from recognizing valid taxa within S. sthenodactylus pending detailed analysis of the geographical patterns of morphological and genetic variation. We thus provisionally follow Loveridge (1957) and Arnold (1980) in synonymizing zavattarii with sthenodactylus. If some of the lineages recently identified in the species prove to be valid species or subspecies, the nomen zavattarii would be available for the lineage distributed from Kenya to Egypt (Metallinou et al. 2012).
Name-bearing type: two syntypes: MZUF 23878 and MSNM Re 3359. Type locality: “Elolo” (= Ilolo = Banya, now Bani in northern Kenya near the north end of lake Turkana, approx. 4.39°N 36.23°E).
Proposed status: subjective junior synonym of Stenodactylus sthenodactylus (Lichtenstein, 1823).

Garzoniella longipes

description: Garzoniella longipes Perret, 1976
1976 Garzoniella longipes Perret, Revue Suisse de Zoologie 83: 762.
This nomen was based on a single specimen collected by J. Garzoni during a journey through the Sahara: from Tunisia (Tunis) through Libya (Tripoli, Sebha, Ubari (= Awbari), Ghat) to Niger (Madama), then eastern Algeria (Djanet) and back to Tunis via Ghadames (Libya) and Tozeur (Tunisia). As he did not provide a record of where he collected the specimen, the type locality could be anywhere in the area between Tunis, Tozeur, Djanet, Madama, Sebha and Tripoli, along the itinerary followed by J. Garzoni. Perret (1976) suggested that the type locality is in the Fezzan between Ghat and Sebha, but there seems to be little support for this statement. The type specimen is still extant in the Muséum d’histoire naturelle de Genève (MHNG 1520.20, see Schätti et al. 2002). The pictures and description published by Perret (1976) leaves no doubt that the type is a young Stenodactylus sthenodactylus with a damaged tail. The scalation beneath the toes and fingers, the thick tail and the coloration rule out S. petrii (including S. stenurus). The raised nostril, habitus and coloration are typical of S. sthenodactylus, but not S. mauritanicus.
Name-bearing type: Muséum d’histoire naturelle de Genève MHNG 1520.20, holotype by monotypy. Type locality: central Sahara between Tunis, Tozeur (Tunisia), Djanet (Algeria), Madama (Niger), Sebha (Libya) and Tripoli.
Proposed status: subjective junior synonym of Stenodactylus sthenodactylus (Lichtenstein, 1823).

Malayepipona Giordani Soika, 1993: 151, genus.
Type species Malayepipona pagdeni Giordani Soika, 1993, by original designation and monotypy.
Diagnosis. This genus was considered to be similar to the genus Stenodyneriellus by Giordani Soika (1993). Compared with other Oriental genera, it is like Allorhynchium and Okinawepipona in habitus and in having the dorsal surface of T1 truncate and clearly separated from the anterior vertical surface, the latter slight convex. It can be easily distinguished from Allorhynchium by the following character: tegula (Figs 7, 17, 28, 37, 47, 57, 65, 74) more than twice as long as wide, its posterior lobe narrow, well developed and shaped like a long triangle, and posteriorly exceeding the apex of parategula. And it can be separated from Okinawepipona by the following characters: maxillary palp six segmented and labial palp four segmented.
Distribution. Oriental Region.

The southern green stink bug is a cosmopolitan pentatomid, highly polyphagous, feeding on both cultivatedand uncultivated plants. Becauseof this, and because it is a pest of many economic plants worldwide, it is probably the most studied pentatomid.
Among the species observed on privet, N. viridula was, by far, the most abundant (fig. 1). Nymphs and adults were present during most of the year, particularly from earlyautumn to early-winter (March-June). Apparently this occurred due to dispersion of the bugs from rural areas, where they colonize soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merrill, which is harvested late February-early March, to the urban areas, where privet trees are present at full fruiting stages at this time. Nymphs and adults were not recovered during January- February, when they were possibly concentrated on soybean, and July-September, when fruiting structures are less abundant, and the bugs look for alternate hosts or are present in low numbers.
Adults green, with segments of the antenna reddish (fig. 9). The median body length of females 18 mm (n = 10) and of males 14 mm (n = 10).
Nymphs predominantly green, but dark forms occur (fig. 10). Eggs light yellowishwhite (figs. 11, 12) or cream colored turning pinkish and reddish as embryo develops. In the laboratory, nymphs completed development on immature fruits of privet (mortality of 38.7 %), and adults show an excellent reproductive performance (PANIZZI et al., 1996),
which isthe reason why privetfruits are being used tomass rear this bug in the laboratory. This is reinforced by the fact that far more nymphs were captured than adults, because of the high rate of egg production by females.

Previous to this study, this neotropical pentatomid species, described by GRAZIA (1980) was considered somewhat rare, and its host plants unknown. However, it was the second most abundant species captured on privet trees. Like the previous species, nymphs and adults were present most of the year (fig. 2). More bugs were collected during autumn-winter (April-July), and spring-early summer (September- December). Nymphs followed the population pattern, in general, but were less abundant than adults.
Adults (fig. 13) dorsal surface matte to dark brown with black punctures and reddish little maculae. Antennae and connexivum matte with black punctures on margins of segments. Median body length of females 9.0 mm (n = 10) and of males 7.5 mm (n = 10). Nymphs dorsally matte to dark brown. Head intensely punctured black and dark brown. Antennae matte, with black and yellowish rings. Antero-lateral margins of pronotum serrated, posterior margins rectilinear. Dorsal surface of the abdomen matte with ferrugineous to black punctures. Eggs light brown to greenish.
In the laboratory, in contrast to what was observed for N. viridula, mostnymphs of P. macunaima did not complete their development on immature fruits of privet (63.2 % mortality). Adults (50% of the females) reproduced, with a fecundity of 8.3 ± 2.13 egg masses and 41.7±12.30 eggs/female, but egg hatchability was relatively low (47.1±12.30 %). These data suggestthat privet fruits are only a reasonable food source, in spite of the bug’s abundance on the plant. Perhaps, the insects feed on other parts of the plant or are too susceptible to handling in the laboratory, which may explain the present results. Unfortunately, no dataon this bug biologyis available to allow a comparison between its performance on privet with native host plants, which remain unknown.

Thiswas the third most abundant species. Like N. viridula, nymphs were observed in greater number than adults. Both, nymphs and adults, peaked during May at the end of autumn. Nymphs were also observed in greater numbers during the summer months (December and February) (fig. 3).
Adults (fig. 14) usually ferrugineous to black, with metallic green; dorsal surface with inumerous yellow maculae. Antennae black with metallic green. Legs black with dilated tibiae. Median body length offemales 15.0 mm (n = 10) and of males 11.5 mm (n = 10). Nymphs (fig. 15) easily recognizedby the dark coloration and large sizeof abdominal plates; abdomen purple red between median and lateral plates, and dilation of the tibiae, specially in the 2nd to 4th instars. Eggs (fig. 16) light brown with a clear stripe.
In the laboratory, some nymphs were able to reach adulthood, but most (82.5 %) died before becoming adult. Because most nymphs died, only 5 pairs were formed and observed, and none reproduced when fed on fruits of privet. It is intriguing that present poor results on the nymph and adult biology of P. stictica contrasts with the field observations on the abundance of the bug on privet plants. Perhaps like P. macunaima, P. stictica complements its diet by feedingon other parts of the plant, and performs better in the field; or it may show also a high mortality and a low reproduction rate in the field, which did not prevent the species from being abundant. These data are supported by observations of BRAILOVSKY et al. (1992), who also found very difficultto raise P. stictica nymphs in the laboratory. They refer to the legume Senna papillosa (Britton & Rose)
Irwin & Barneby as a host plant of this bug in Mexico. YOUNG (1984) refers to another species of this legume Senna fructicosa (Mill) Irwin & Barneby in Costa Rica, on which bugs were observed in great number.

This pentatomid was the fourthmost abundantspecies. Equal numbers of nymphs and adults were captured throughout the year; both were more abundant from March to June (fig. 4).
Adults (fig. 17) green, with sharp pronotum spines. Median body length of females 18.0 mm (n = 10) andof males 16.0 mm (n = 10). Nymphs (fig. 18) ovoid, flat, greenyellowish, with reddish stripe along margins of head, thorax and abdomen. Black dots present on anterior margin of mesothorax and wing pads. Eggs (fig. 19) cream colored.
In the laboratory, survivorship of nymphs was high (82.9 %) when fed immature fruits of privet. Most females (83.3 %) oviposited, laying ca.18 egg masses orca. 230 eggs each. L. deducta is known to feed and reproduce on soybean and on the other legumes Bauhinia candicans Benth. and Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit. in Brazil (LINK & GRAZIA, 1987, PANIZZI & ROSSI, 1991). On the last food plant, females had a fecundity of ca. 66 eggs/female. It is also reported to feed and reproduce on another species of privet, Ligustrum ovalifolium Hasskarl. in Rio Grande do Sul (LINK & GRAZIA, 1987). Our studies with the privet species L. lucidum indicated a much better performance on this food plant compared to data in the literature when bugs were raised on other hosts, similar to what was observed on other pentatomid species such as N. viridula.

This pentatomid, along with Antiteuchus tripterus (Fabricius, 1787), was the fifth most abundant species recovered. Adultswere captured in greater number than nymphs (fig. 5). Adults increasedin numbers from Marchand peaked during May, decreasing thereafter. They were present on privet during most of the year, with numbers occurring during late spring and summer. Nymphs were captured in low numbers and only in October, December, February, and April. Because few nymphs (fig. 20) and adultswere collected, no attempt was made toraise A. impicticorne inthelaboratory. However, we suspect that nymphs will show some degree of development on privet berries, because they were observed feeding on these fruits in the field. A. impicticorne is known as a secondary pest of soybean in Brazil, and has been collected from several states such as Distrito Federal, Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Paraná, and Rio Grande do Sul (GRAZIA, VECCHIO & HILDEBRAND, 1982).
Adults dorsally green, with connexivum yellowish, and membrane of hemelytra infuscated. Medianbody length of females 14.0 mm (n = 10), and of males 12.0 mm (n = 10). Nymphs dark, with clear spots on dorsal surface of abdomen. Eggs brownish.

Nymphs and adults occurred in relatively low numbers on privet (fig. 6). Numbers of nymphs and adults peaked during May at late autumn, and adults also peaked in early summer (December).
Adults dorso-ventrally depressed, with dorsal surface testaceous to dark brown or black, densely punctured on pronotum and scutellum. Males usually darkerthan females. Median body length of females 12.0 mm (n = 10), and of males 11.0 mm (n = 10). Nymphs dark and flat. Eggs (fig. 23) clear colored.
In the laboratory, no nymphs survived on privet berries. Although nymphs were recovered from privet fruits, they were also common on branches and on the tree trunk. We suspect that they feed to some degree on the branches and trunk, but this needs to be investigated further.
Antiteuchus tripterus is mentioned as a pest of cacao in several countries of South America and from the Caribbean islands (CALLAN, 1944; LOZANO, 1955; LICERAS & CASTRO, 1987). Maternal care in A. tripterus and its relationship to scelionid egg parasitoids have been studied by EBERHARDT (1975).
