Pseudaulacaspis coluisuvae

description: Pseudaulacaspis coluisuvae Williams & Watson
This species was described from Viti Levu, Fiji, off an unknown host by Williams and Watson (1988a). Previous to this study, this was the only record. Here we record it from Fiji: Viti Levu, Naivicule, on? Ficus sp., 4.xii.1957, B.A. O’Connor (BMNH): 3/7adff (good); also Vanua Levu, Sawani, midrib of undentified plant, 21.ii.1951, B.A. O’Connor (BMNH): 1/1adf (good). We also record it for the first time from the Solomon Is.: Kolambangara, on Terminalia colamasanae, 7.viii.1980, M. Bigger (BMNH): 2/5adff (good). These records suggest that this species could be more widespread than the initial description suggested. There was some variation in the frequency of the larger dorsal ducts on the head within all three collections. All specimens had at least one duct near the head margins, but most had only two ducts, either one on either side of the head or one near the margin and one in the midline. Despite this variation, all three collections are here considered to be P. coluisuvae.

Head with crown broadly rounded anteriorly. Pronotum large, more than 1.5 times as long as mesonotum. Fore wing with 2 nd apical cell stalked (or sometimes pointed) basally. Hind wing with vein RP fused to MP’ in apical ⅓; vein CuA branched more basally than point confluent with MP”. Male abdominal sternal apodemes short, exceeding anterior margin of 4 th segment.
Male genitalia. Pygofer roundly rectangular posteriad, bearing numerous setae scattered on surface, with or without dorsal process. Subgenital plate moderately long, about twice as long as valve, with concave outer margin, bearing macrosetae arranged in oblique row across plate and numerous fine setae on dorsal margin and apex. Style broad, with short apophysis and large preapical lobe. Connective T-shaped, with or without central lobe. Aedeagus tubular and slender, without process; shaft semicircular, curved dorsally; gonopore apical.
Distribution. Palearctic region, Oriental region (Taiwan).
Remarks. This genus was synonymized under Igutettix Matsumura, because of the misidentification of the type species of that genus by Dworakowska (1993b). However, Vilbasteana may be distinguished by the following features: fore wing 2 nd apical cell stalked or pointed basally, hind wing vein CuA branched more basally, subgenital plates of male genitalia not fused to valve, style broad, and aedeagus simple. These features are common to Paraafrakra Chiang, Hsu et Knight from Taiwan, and accordingly, Paraafrakra is newly synonymized under Vilbasteana. As a result, Vilbasteana now comprises two species: V. oculata (Lindberg, 1929) comb. rev., V. fulva (Chiang, Hsu et Knight, 1990) comb. nov.

Traduzione e autocensura fra il Buovo d’Antona veneziano e il Bovo-Bukh di Elia Levita

description: Con la conclusione del Concilio di Basilea nel 1449 si compie la trasformazione del papato in uno Stato assoluto in grado d’inserirsi nel gioco delle potenze italiane. Ne deriva che Venezia, timorosa dell’espansione ottomana e preoccupata di por fine alle lotte del secolo precedente, adotterà una posizione coerente con l’ortodossia cattolica. Ciò diverrà ancora più impellente con l’ampliamento del pubblico di lettori susseguente all’introduzione della stampa. Un esempio di autocensura preventiva è riscontrabile negli incunaboli che, per tutti gli anni Ottanta del XV secolo, apparvero fra Venezia e Bologna riportando l’adattamento di un antico poema cavalleresco di origini normanne: Buovo d’Antona. La narrazione vi è interpolata da invocazioni estemporanee di chiaro carattere confessionale, intese forse a prevenire le accuse di licenziosità della materia trattata. Nel momento in cui, intorno al 1507, il filologo Elia Levita intraprende la traduzione del testo in yiddish-taytsh, per poi pubblicarla a stampa a Isny 34 anni dopo, egli si vede costretto ad eliminare od adattare tali passi per rendere la sua opera accettabile a un pubblico israelita. Scopo dell’articolo è paragonare il Buovo d’Antona veneziano con il Bovo-Bukh di Levita per individuarvi i riferimenti intertestuali di più chiaro carattere confessionale, che possono essere intesi quali forme di autocensura preventiva.

Pseudaulacaspis pentagona

description: Pseudaulacaspis pentagona Targioni Tozzetti
Williams and Watson (1988a) indicate that Maskell (1895) described this species (as Aspidiotus vitiensis) from Fiji and that it was probably well established by that time. P. pentagona is a cosmopolitan and destructive species and has been recorded on a very large number of plant species. At the time of the present visit, several farmers were complaining about a reduction in the growth and yield of their cassava (Manihot esculenta) crops. The most obvious symptoms on the affected crops were numerous white patches over the lower stems and these were found to be patches of male tests of a diaspidid scale insect. The adult females of P. pentagona were also found abundantly on the lower stems in affected crops although they were not obvious as they were very similar in colour to the cassava stems. It is almost certain that these were the cause of the reduction in yield. As the white male tests almost certainly belong to this species, its presence can be quickly detected by the white patches on the cassava stems. However, as cassava crops are planted using 12–15 inch long lengths of the stems of the previous crop, it is clear that, once a crop has been infected, it is easily carried over into the following crop on these twigs (particularly as it is likely that the stronger plants in the future crop probably grow from the thicker stems – i.e. the twigs originating from nearest the base of the old plants, the most heavily infected part of each plant!). We suggest that this carryover could be relatively easily prevented if the stems for the next crop were soaked overnight in a suitable pesticide prior to planting.

Elucidation of Ralstonia solanacearum Phylotypes causing Bacterial Wilt in Solanum lycopersicum (Cobra tomatoes) through Modified Agar Medium (MAM) and Multiplex-PCR
Creators: name: Forkwa Etienne Yong
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2028

description: Tomatoes are major staples in global diets and are frequently threatened by the virulent soil-borne pathogen, Ralstonia solanacearum, which causes devastating bacterial wilt and poses a significant risk to food security. This study was designed to elucidate the Ralstonia solanacearum phylotypes associated with bacterial wilt in Solanum lycopersicum in Buea, Cameroon. One hundred and fifty symptomatic tomato plants were collected from five tomatoes producing sites in Buea (Bwitingi, Ewonda, Great Soppo, Molyko, and Muea). A modified agar medium (MAM) was used to minimize the presence of contaminating pathogens, followed by nutrient agar to further purify the 45 isolates. Subsequently, the isolates underwent biochemical tests (Kliger iron agar and Gram staining), pathogenicity tests, genomic DNA extraction, and Polymerase Chain Reaction (Multiplex PCR) using primers that targeted 16S and 23S rRNA. The symptoms observed included wilted and yellow leaves, discoloured stems, and adventitious roots. Spearman correlations showed the strongest associations between discoloured xylem and wilted leaves (r = 0.43) and the weakest between discoloured xylem and yellow leaves (r = 0.13). Kliger iron agar, Gram stain, and pathogenicity tests confirmed the presence of the pathogen, but no significant differences were found amongst the 45 isolates (P = 0.05), except for stem streaming (H= 11.82, P = 0.019). Genomic DNA was successfully extracted from all 45 isolates, and effectively amplified during PCR, yielding distinct bands of 372, 144, 213, and 91 base pairs, indicating the presence of phylotypes II, I, IV, and III, respectively, in the isolates. These findings provide valuable insights into the pathogen's diversity and identity in Cameroon, providing clues to stakeholders in the management of bacterial wilt disease in the tomato sectorKeywords: Ralstonia solanacearum, phylotypes, Modified agar medium, nutrient agar, Primers, PCR, and Gel electrophoresis

Diagnosis
Workers have 9-segmented antennae. Head in full-face view subrectangular, distinctly longer than broad, lateral margins slightly convex, posterior margin also slightly convex. Mesosoma in dorsal view rather elongate, long-ellipsoidal, with lateral sides and anterior margin obviously convex in dorsal view; in lateral view, dorsal outline convex; propodeal declivity feebly concave, encircled with, distinct thin rim. Petiole in dorsal view subtrapezoid in dorsal view, anterior margin shorter than posterior margin; in lateral view (excluding sternite) subquadrate, almost as long as high, lateral margins convex; subpetiolar process in lateral view subtriangle, with ventral corner clypeiform, ventral outline strongly concave. Postpetiole in lateral view subrectangular, shorter than high, with ventral outline slightly concave; sternite anteroventrally produced as blunt angle directed downward and forward.
Type material
Unexamined. But the type worker of S. typhla was examined in the online database of the AntWeb (https://www.antweb.org/; FOCOL0804, imaged by Christiana Klingenberg).
Distribution
Japan (doubtful), West Bengal, Sri Lanka.
Remarks
Based on a reexamination the specimens which were reported from Yunnan of China by Xu (1998) and Xu et al. (1999), we found that those specimens were misidentified as Cerapachys typhlus, but Ooceraea biroi (Forel, 1907). In addition, Gu et al. (2019) reported that the species Cerapachys typhlus was also distributed in Guangxi of China, which was a misidentification of S. zhoui sp. nov. Therefore, the species S. typhla is excluded from the ant fauna of China.

Remarks. The species is now only known from Emeishan where an extremely similar species, Dianous aerator Puthz, 2016, also occurs in the same habitat. In original description, Zheng didn’t indicate whether his figures were based on holotype or not. Thus, examining the holotype of the species will be necessary to clarify the status of these two species.

Distribution. China (Shaanxi, Sichuan, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Guizhou, Guangxi).
Remarks. Dianous aerator is extremely similar to D. ruginosus in appearance and both of them can be collected from same localities in Emeishan. The differences between the males are distinct, and the males may be identified by the shape of sternite VII, without dissection. However, there is no difference between the females, and thus the female specimens from Emeishan, Xianfeng Temple are not included in the species. The species is new to Guizhou.

Remarks. It was recorded for Caucasus by Hochhuth (1849) from Tiflis. The presence of this species in Caucasus is not confirmed by a new material.
Bruge (2005) wrote about confusion concerning identities of G. congrua, G. fasciata and G. laevipennis. It is possible that the previous record of G. congrua by Hochhuth represents misinterpreted G. fasciata.

Material examined. CHINA: Yunnan: 3♂♂, Lijiang City, Hutiaoxia, alt. 1700m, 1.VIII.2010, Xiao-Bing Song leg. (SHNU).
Measurements. BL: 4.8–4.9 mm, FL: 2.6–2.9 mm. HW: 0.93–0.95 mm, PL: 0.74–0.80 mm, PW: 0.76–0.82 mm, EL: 1.20–1.27 mm, EW: 1.19–1.29 mm, SL: 1.06–1.08 mm. Head 0.73–0.78 times as wide as elytra, pronotum 0.95–0.99 times as long as wide, elytra 0.98–1.01 times as long as wide.
Male. Sternite VII (Fig. 12, 18) impressed at posteromedian part delimited by edged ridge on each side, posterior margin of the impression emarginated with long projection on each side; sternite VIII (Fig. 20) with deep emargination in the middle of posterior margin which is 0.27 times as long as the sternite; sternite IX (Fig. 28) with apicolateral projections indistinct, posterior margin serrate. Aedeagus (Figs. 36, 37) slender, median lobe gradually tapering apicad and pointed at apex, apical sclerotized area slightly twisted on right side with numerous long and short setae ventrally; parameres broaden at apical third, each with 11–13 setae on inner side of apical portion.
Distribution. China (Yunnan).
Remarks. The species was described on a female from Yulongshan of Lijiang. The above male specimens fit the description of the female holotype in all aspects and were collected from a locality very close to the type locality. For these reasons, we believe these are the males of D. brevicornis.
