description: Physokermes hellenicus Kozár & Gounari (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha) is a new record for Turkish scale insect fauna. Studies on its biological cycle and natural enemies were made on Abies nordmanniana (Steven) (Pinaceae) in Ankara during 2014-2015. It was found that P. hellenicus hibernate as the third instar and has one generation in Ankara. The following natural enemies were found associated with P. hellenicus: Anthribus nebulosus Forster (Coleoptera: Antribidae), Chilocorus renipustulatus (Scriba) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), Atroctotomus spp. (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) and the parasitoid Aphycoides clavellatus (Dalman) (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae). Among the natural enemies, A. clavellatus was the main cause of mortality of P. hellenicus populations in Ankara. The scale insect was determined on Abies cilicica (Antoine & Kotschy) Carrière in Kahramanmaraş, Konya and on A. nordmanniana in Bolu, Eskişehir and Ankara, Turkey.

STUDI SULLE LARVE DEI COLEOTTERI DITISCIDI III. Note morfologiche sul I e II stadio larvale di sei specie del genere Agabus Leach

description: MORPHOLOGICAL NOTES ON THE FIRST AND SECOND LARVAL STAGE OF 6 SPECIES OF GENUS Agabus LEACH

The author relates about the morphological characters differentiating the first and the second larval stage of six species from the third larval stage of them. The third larval stage of this species is treated in a preceding paper (DE MARZO, 1973).

Because the morphology of the first stage is very different from the morphology of the third one, more space is devoted to the description of the main distinctive characters and similarities that the first stage of each of the six species shows respect to the other ones.

In the part regarding the second larval stage, whose morphology is similar to the third stage, some characters, useful for a specific identification of the single species, are given.

Two keys are proposed, to the first and second larval stages.

Finally it is noticed that the differences and similarities found comparing the first stage larvae of the six species validate (as it was found comparing the third larval stages) the present subdivision of these species in different subgenera (GUIGNOT, 1959). A preceding subdivision (GUIGNOT, 1931-33) is also justified because melanocornis (whose first stage larva, as the third stage, has peculiar characters) was separated from the other five species in a third subgenus.

The examined specimens were gathered in Southern Italy; their specific identification was verified with rearing, except for the first stage of A. brunneus F.; the specimens utilized to describe the first stage of this species were classified on the basis that their morphology showed differences and similarities to the first stage of A. dydimus 01. similar to the differences and similarities found comparing the third stages of brunneus and dydimus.

Vengono messi in evidenza i caratteri che differenziano le larve di I e II età delle sei specie esaminate dalle rispettive larve mature, già trattate dall'autore in una precedente nota; vengono, inoltre, rilevate le differenze e le affinità esistenti fra le larve del medesimo stadio di sviluppo. Alcuni dei caratteri più utili alla determinazione della specie sono ordinati in due tavole dicotomiche. Alcune considerazioni vengono fatte riguardo alla suddivisione in sottogeneri delle sei specie esaminate, alla luce delle differenze e delle affinità morfologiche riscontrate fra le loro larve di I e II età.

description: We provide upper bounds on the total number of irreducible factors, and in particular irreducibility criteria for some classes of bivariate polynomials $f(x,y)$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{K}$. Our results rely on information on the degrees of the coefficients of $f$, and on information on the factorization of the constant term and of the leading coefficient of $f$, viewed as a polynomial in $y$ with coefficients in $\mathbb{K}[x]$. In particular, we provide a generalization of the bivariate version of Perron's irreducibility criterion, and similar results for polynomials in an arbitrary number of indeterminates. The proofs use non-Archimedean absolute values, that are suitable for finding information on the location of the roots of $f$ in an algebraic closure of $\mathbb{K}(x)$.

description: I Ditteri Tefritidi, sono fra gli insetti più dannosi alle colture fruttifere e già molti Autori hanno condotto su di essi studi di morfo-biologia e sui mezzi di lotta.

Da un esame dei lavori morfo-biologici, ho notato che la grande maggioranza di questi riguardano le forme adulte di tali insetti, mentre lasciano in secondo ordine la morfologia delle larve, le quali sono poi le dirette responsabili dei gravi danni economici apportati all'agricoltura. È stato questo quindi, il motivo principe che mi ha spinto ad intraprendere il presente lavoro con l'intento di dare un contributo alla conoscenza della morfologia !arvale dei Ditteri Tefritidi, cercando di stabilire termini di confronto a livello specifico, che in seguito potranno anche avere valore sistematico più ampio. Fra le nume- rose specie di Tefritidi, ho creduto opportuno dare la precedenza alle larve del Dacus oleae Gmel., della Ceratitis capitata Wied. e della Rhagoletis cerasi L., essendo queste le specie più note ed importanti economicamente.

Year: 2016

description: Il genere Novotinea Ams. comprende una decina di specie quasi tutte medi- terranee, di cui tre, carbonifera Wlsm., liguriella Ams., e mistrettae Parenti, sono italiane.

Novotinea liguriella venne descritta nel 1950 da H. G. AMSEL in base ad un maschio inviatogli in esame da J. KLIMESCH, che aveva raccolto una pic- cola serie di quattro maschi tra il 21-VIII e il 16-IX-1944 a Quiliano nell'immediato entroterra di Savona. Il testo era corredato da un disegno schematico dell'ala anteriore e dell'apparato genitale maschile.

Nel corso di una serie di raccolte periodiche durante tutto il 1973 nella località di Conna (Savona), m 300, ho avuto modo di raccogliere al lume due esemplari di questa specie, e precisamente un maschio 1'8-IX e una femmina il 15-IX. Quest'ultima è importante, poiché fino ad oggi sconosciuta e perché permette d'inquadrare meglio la specie nei rapporti delle congeneri, confermando come N. liguriella si differenzi decisamente dalle altre e assuma nel genere un posto un po' isolato come ebbe a scrivere AMSEL a commento della descrizione originale.

title: Introduction of the "Tarikh i Bayhaq" of Dhahiru'd-din Abu'l-Hasan 'Ali b. Zayd al-Bayhaqi.
Creators: name: Husaini, Qari Sayyid Kalimullah
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1930

description: The Tarikh-i-Bayhaq is one of the few rare and precious works that have survived the awful Mongol invasion. The work, as its name implies, is a history of the famous district of Bayhaq, in Khurasan, completed in the year 563 A.H.- 1167 A.D., by an inhabitant of the district, called Dhahiru'd-Din Abu'l-Hasan 'Ali b. Zayd al-Bayhaqi, who died two years after completing the work. This important work was not paid attention to until quite recent years. The present dissertation is upon the work, and it is divided into three parts. The First deals with the Author; his correct laqab; his birth, and birthplace; details of his education; his marriage to the daughter of the Governor of Ray; his appointment as Ail and Governor; ant his candidature for the ministry under Sultan Sanjari and the author's ancestors, who were honoured by their contemporaries, wasirs and kings. the second part deals with the work, which is the most important existing source of information upon the culture of Bayhaq. This part includes the suggestion that lesidn'llah UUstawfi had the Tdrikh-i-Bayhaq in view when he wrote his Tdrikh-i-Gusida; it also contains the earliest account of 4b01-11141 Bayhaqi, the eminent historian, and his unknown book anatull-Kuttib; a detailed account of the celebrated t4tzfr Nidhitmull-Ailk and his descendants; version literature of the sixth century; and translations of biographical sketches of authors and other eminent men mentioned in the Arfkh-i-Bayhaq. The third part seals with other works of the Author; some eighty books, written in j..rabio and in 4arsian; his existing book the Arikh-l-4ukamAul1-Islfim, which contains the earliest account of 'Umar Khayyam; its reproduction in the Nuzhatull-Arwah by Shahrasuri; its MSS. in different libraries; translations of biobraphioal sketches of eminent Muslim and Christian authors mentioned in it; and some details of his non-existent works.

title: The deposition of Li Hsiu-ch'eng.
Creators: name: Curwen, Charles Anthony
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1968

description: Li Hsiu-ch'eng's deposition (sometimes called an 'autobiography' or 'confession') is the longest account of the Taiping Rebellion from the rebel side. Its importance is enhanced by the great scarcity of documentation of this nature brought about by the widespread destruction of Taiping documents during and after the suppression of the rebellion. Because of the circumstances in which it was written, because the original manuscript was withheld from the eyes of historians and the public by Tseng Kuo-fan and his descendants, and in view of the known incompleteness of the published versions, the deposition has for several decades been the subject of speculation and controversy. Only in 1961, with the publication of a facsimile edition in Taiwan, was it possible for historians to examine an accurate reproduction of the original document and form their own judgement on several important questions, including the authenticity of the deposition, its accuracy and reliability. These questions have to be resolved in order to assess the value of the document as an account of the history of the rebellion and the reasons for its failure. Of equal, if not greater value, is the light which it throws upon the character of its author, the most outstanding military leader of the late Taiping period, who subsequently became a great popular hero. Examination of his career as seen through the deposition, his state of mind, and his motivation for writing it, should help to explain the nature of the rebellion itself. Most of these questions are discussed in the pages which follow, and the deposition has been translated said annotated in considerable detail. This is the first complete translation into English of Li Hsiu-ch'eng's deposition. It is also the first version in any language to show not only the deletions made by Tseng Kuo-fan, but also the other cuts made by members of his staff.

Osservazioni bionomiche su Bebelothrips latus Buffa reperito in un bosco di querce della Puglia (Thysanoptera Urothripidae)

Publisher: name: Entomologica
Year: 2016

description: BIONOMICAL OBSERVATIONS ON BEBELOTHRIPS LATUS BUFFA FROM AN OAK-FOREST IN APULIA (THYSANOPTERA UROTHRIPIDAE)

Occurrence of an uncommon soil-dwelling thrips was monitored from late-April to early-November. Four samples of soil were collected periodically (nearly every 15 days) under trees and bushes of Quercus trojana Webb in forest places differing every time. Many females, males and neanides were found throughout. Only few specimens of prepupae, pupae I and pupae II were found in soil samples: further of them were obtained from neanides kept in vials.

B. latus was known only from Giglio Island (Central Italy) so far. Males are not reported in the literature; they differ from females in their smaller body size. Neanides have been identified from adults emerged in vials; although reported in the literature, they don’t bear very long hairs at abdomen end. Pupae exhibit an abdominal theca, which does correspond to the very long hairs of adults.

Altogether, observations suggest the following bionomics: (a) females do occur every month; (b) male presence is restricted to summer; (c) sex ratio is close to 1:1 in July-August; (d) new adults emerge from July to September. Seemingly, female is the unique overwintering form. Evidence for a single neanidal instar arose from comparing many neanides of different size.

Key words: seasonal occurrence, sex ratio, neanides, subpupae, Southern Italy.

Viene segnalata la presenza in Italia peninsulare di Bebelothrips latus Buffa, specie finora segnalata soltanto dell’Isola del Giglio. Adulti dei due sessi e neanidi in gran numero sono stati estratti in laboratorio da campioni di terreno prelevati periodicamente da fine-aprile a metà- novembre alla base di alberi e cespugli di Quercus trojana Webb (Fagaceae).

Le osservazioni attestano la comparsa estiva di una nuova generazione di adulti, con una sex ratio prossima a 1:1 in luglio-agosto. Poiché i campioni non hanno più fornito maschi dopo la

fine dell’estate, si ritiene che lo svernamento sia affidato esclusivamente alle femmine. Le neanidi non sono soggette ad un periodo di diapausa e mutano in prepupe nella stessa estate. Lo stadio di subpupa ha una durata complessiva di 6-7 giorni e prevede le 3 età tipiche dei Tubuliferi.

Diversamente da quanto riportato in letteratura, le neanidi non posseggono lunghe setole all’estremità dell’addome; esse presentano una variabilità morfologica riferibile esclusivamente al dimorfismo sessuale. Pertanto, si ritiene che il loro sviluppo preveda una singola età.

Sensitivity of K$β$ mainline X-ray emission to structural dynamics in iron photosensitizer

description: Photochemistry and photophysics processes involve structures far from equilibrium. In these reactions, there is often strong coupling between nuclear and electronic degrees of freedom. For first-row transition metals, K$β$ X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) is a sensitive probe of electronic structure due to the direct overlap between the valence orbitals and the 3p hole in the final state. Here the sensitivity of K$β$ mainline (K$β$1,3) XES to structural dynamics is analyzed by simulating spectral changes along the excited state dynamics of an iron photosensitizer [FeII(bmip)2]2+ [bmip = 2,6-bis(3-methyl-imidazole-1-ylidine)-pyridine], using both restricted active space (RAS) multiconfigurational wavefunction theory and a one-electron orbital-energy approach in density-functional theory (1-DFT). Both methods predict a spectral blue-shift with increasing metal-ligand distance, which changes the emission intensity for any given detection energy. These results support the suggestion that the [FeII(bmip)2]2+ femtosecond K$β$ XES signal shows oscillations due to coherent wavepacket dynamics. Based on the RAS results, the sensitivity to structural dynamics is twice as high for K$β$ compared to K$α$, with the drawback of a lower signal-to-noise ratio. K$β$ sensitivity is favored by a larger spectral blue-shift with increasing metal-ligand distance and larger changes in spectral shape. Comparing the two simulations methods, 1-DFT predicts smaller energy shifts and lower sensitivity, likely due to missing final-state effects. The simulations can be used to design and interpret XES probes of non-equilibrium structures to gain mechanistic insights in photocatalysis.
title: The role and organisation of Chinese secret societies in the late Ch'ing : A reconsideration of some of the literature.
Creators: name: Blackburn, Fei-ling
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1968

description: This thesis is concerned with the examination of southern Chinese secret society organization and role in the late Ch'ing (1870-1912), during which the Hung League or Triad group of societies predominated. The first chapter will deal with the orthodox and heterodox streams of Chinese thought and their relation to one another and to traditional society. This is followed in the next chapter by a discussion of the institutional frame-work in which Chinese secret societies operated, ending with a summary of the social conditions in the second half of the nineteenth century. Chapter III will enlarge on the method of research (alluded to in the Introduction) to be employed in this thesis, and the myth (with an interpretation) and the actual formation of a secret society (with an example from Tientsin.) Chapter IV will deal with the functions of the association for its members, and their activities in the larger society. Chapter V will discuss the social composition of the Hung League, showing the predominance of "outcasts" and slum proletariat in the leadership and the rank-and-file membership, despite the avowed "classlessness" of the recruitment principles. This picture will be shown to be true only of the period under discussion. Chapter VI will present first the Triads' principles of organization (their hierarchical structure) and an interpretation of their organization according to the method outlined in the third chapter. Chapter VII will summarize the initiation ritual in numbered note-form, and will attempt to interpret its meaning for the members in psychological and organizational terms. Chapter VIII will discuss briefly the relation of secret society "statutes" to state law; and also the extent to which the concerns of solidarity influenced the degree of severity and the type of penalties set out in the regulations. The concluding chapter will recapitulate briefly the historical connection of peasant rebellions with secret society activity and ideology from the earliest times. This will be followed by a characterization of the role of secret societies in the first stages of structural change in early Republican China. The thesis will end on a short discussion of the relevance of Chinese secret societies to understanding the phenomenon of their counterparts in other countries.

description: A directed diameter of a directed graph is the maximum possible distance between a pair of vertices, where paths must respect edge orientations, while undirected diameter is the diameter of the undirected graph obtained by symmetrizing the edges. In 2006 Babai proved that for a connected directed Cayley graph on $n$ vertices the directed diameter is bounded above by a polynomial in undirected diameter and $\log n$. Moreover, Babai conjectured that a similar bound holds for vertex-transitive graphs. We prove this conjecture of Babai, in fact, it follows from a more general bound for connected relations of homogeneous coherent configurations. The main novelty of the proof is a generalization of Ruzsa's triangle inequality from additive combinatorics to the setting of graphs.

Note bionomiche su Compsothrips albosignatus O.M. Reuter (Thysanoptera Phlaeothripidae)

description: BIONOMICS OF COMPSOTHRIPS ALBOSIGNATUS (O.M. REUTER) (THYSANOPTERA PHLAEOTHRIPIDAE)

Adults and young instars of C. albosignatus were collected in several localities of Apulia (Southern Italy) by shacking branches of different plants. Adults were found 4 broad-leaved items (Fagaceae, Oleaceae) and also on Aleppo pine (Pinaceae). Young instars were found on Fagaceae and Oleaceae and also on Pistacia lentiscus L. (Anacardiaceae). Occurrence of egg-bearing females was detected in May and June. Development time was evaluated in the laboratory for eggs and youngs. Results suggest bionomics of C. albosignatus as follows: (a) after they have overwintered elsewhere, adults colonise foliage of trees and bushes in May; (b) most egg- bearing females do occur in May; (c) eggs exhibit an advanced embryonal development when discharged and hatch a few days later; (d) neanides (2 instars) and subpupae (3 instars) complete their entire development on plants without starving; (e) freshly-emerged adults do occur on plants up to August. Then, adults hide for overwintering, possibly in crevices of tree barks. Because spermatheca of most freshly-emerged females contains a small quantity of sperm, evidence for multiple mating does arise.

Key words: ovoviviparity, preimaginal development, multiple mating.

Si fa il resoconto di osservazioni di campo e di laboratorio sul tubulifero Compsothrips albosignatus (O.M. Reuter). Adulti e giovani sono stati cercati sulle chiome di alberi e arbusti in boschi e oliveti della provincia di Bari e sono stati reperiti da maggio ad agosto su varie latifoglie (Fagaceae, Oleaceae, Anacardiaceae) e su Pino d’Aleppo (Pinaceae). Sono stati valutati i tempi di sviluppo di uova, neanidi e subpupe.

I risultati suggeriscono quanto segue: (a) dopo aver svernato in ricoveri vari, gli adulti dei due sessi colonizzano la chioma di alberi e arbusti in maggio, senza preferenze riguardo alla specie botanica; (b) le femmine ovidepongono in primavera-estate sulle stesse chiome; (c) le uova vengono deposte in fase avanzata di sviluppo embrionale e schiudono in pochi giorni; (d) le neanidi (2 età) e le subpupe (3 età) si sviluppano sulle stesse chiome senza attraversare un periodo di diapausa; (e) pertanto, gli adulti della nuova generazione

compaiono in estate e restano sulle chiome fino ad agosto. In seguito, gli adulti si nascondono per lo svernamento, rifugiandosi probabilmente in screpolature delle cortecce. Poiché alcune delle femmine raccolte d’estate hanno la spermateca parzialmente piena di sperma, si intravede la possibilità di accoppiamenti multipli.

Parole chiave: ovoviviparità, sviluppo preimmaginale, accoppiamenti multipli.

title: Non-unilineal kinship on Mafia Island, Tanzania.
Creators: name: Caplan, Ann Patricia
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1968

description: This thesis considers a system of non-unilineal kinship in a village called Kanga on Mafia Island, off the coast of East Africa. The aim of the thesis is to see how individuals manipulate their membership of cognatic descent groups to maximize their advantages in various social contexts. Chapter 1 provides a theoretical Introduction, considering some of the problems arising from a study of non-unilineal societies. Chapter II presents background on the oecology, population and economy of the Island and the village. In the third Chapter, the framework of the descent groups is discussed; they are shown to be cognatic, unrestricted and corporate. The next Chapter examines factors which condition residence choices. In Chapter V, people are seen to affiliate with a number of descent groups over a period of time in order to obtain cultivable land; their decisions in this context are not necessarily affected by where they reside. In Chapter VI, It is stressed that in many contexts, the individual does not only choose between affiliation with one descent group or another, but between using his descent links and using his network of kin, affines, neighbours and friends. Chapters VII and VIII discuss the relationship between descent groups, and status and power. High status is seen to be associated with groups whose members are thought to be particularly pious Muslims, while those groups whose members practise spirit possession are accorded low status. Finally, the thesis concludes that those descent groups which control important channels of power, such as political and religious offices, including spirit possession guilds, are the most corporate, in the sense that their members tend to affiliate with them in most social contexts. In such groups, people tend to intra-marry to a greater extent than in less corporate groups, in order to keep the control of channels of power in the hands of a few people.

description: AMOUNT OF CHIROTHRIPS MANICATUS HALIDAY ADULTS (THYSANOPTERA TEREBRANTIA) EVALUATED ON COBS

OF ARUNDO PLINIANA TURRA (GRAMINEAE) IN BASILICATA

Number of adult thrips on A. pliniana cobs was monitored in 3 localities of Matera province (Southern Italy). Samples of cobs were collected every 15 days from mid-July to early January in each locality. A supplementary sample was collected in a single locality at mid-March. All samples included 90 cobs assembled from 3 separate groups of plants; in the laboratory, they were kept for drying in open basins. Adult thrips were daily collected from each sample as long as they left cobs, until their number did become lower than 15 for both sexes.

A very different amount of C. manicatus males and females was obtained throughout, and presence of other species of thrips was always found very low. Females of C. manicatus predominated from July to September. Male outbreaks occurred in October-November, when up to 18 thousands of males were obtained from a single sample. In December-January, females turned to be predominant, and no male was found in the supplementary sample of mid-March.

In author’s opinion, the arrhenotokous parthenogenetic reproduction of unmated females causes the autumnal outbreaks of C. manicatus males. Then, the latter trend to disperse in the environment, whereas most females stay on dead cobs for overwintering.

Key words: sex ratio, male outbreaks, overwintering.

È stata quantificata la presenza di adulti del terebrante Chirothrips manicatus Haliday sulle pannocchie della graminacea Arundo pliniana Turra in tre zone della provincia di Matera. I dati sono stati ottenuti da campioni di 90 pannocchie, prelevati in ciascuna zona ogni 15 giorni circa, da metà-luglio a metà-gennaio. Inoltre, è stato prelevato un campione supplementare a metà-marzo.

I risultati mostrano che le pannocchie di A. pliniana sono sede di una massiccia proliferazione di maschi di C. manicatus in ottobre-novembre. Secondo l’autore, questa sovrabbondanza di maschi può essere dovuta alla riproduzione per partenogenesi arrenotoca di femmine rimaste in maggioranza vergini a causa della scarsità di maschi nel precedente periodo estivo. All’inizio dell’inverno, le pannocchie sono popolate da una predominanza di femmine, probabilmente perché queste restano a svernare sulle pannocchie stesse, mentre i maschi si disperdono nell’ambiente. L’esame del campione prelevato a metà-marzo sembra confermare questa differente tendenza nei due sessi.

Parole chiave: sex ratio, eccedenza di maschi, svernamento.

description: Chapter I - deals with the geography of Maharashtra and I have tried to throw as much light as possible upon this obscure subject from various sources. I have also marshalled all the available information about the tribes and peoples inhabiting the various parts of the Maratha country. Chapter II - deals with the history of Maharashtra from the earliest times down to c. 200 B.C. Important questions such as the Aryanlsatlon of the country and Pre- Aryan history have been discussed. Mention may be made here of the Palthan excavations which throw an interesting sidelight on the earliest period. Chapter III - describes the rise and growth of the Satavahana empire. Complicated questions like the original home of the Satavahanas, and their genealogy and chronology have been handled. Chapter IV - deals with the Scythians in Maharashtra. I have put forward a new view as regards the date of the Saka king Nahapana. Chapter V - deals with the history of the powerful but little-known Vakataka kingdom. Chapter VI - deals with the history of Southern Maharashtra under the Kadambas. In Chapter VII, I have treated the history of minor dynasties which had been neglected for a long time. This chapter brings to light the Kalachurl, Traikutaka and the Nala dynasties. Chapter VIII - includes the history of the Early Chalukyas of Badami. I have thrown new light on the origin of the Chalukyas and their relations with the different powers of Northern and Southern India. I have also suggested a new date for the last Chalukya expedition against the Pallavas of Kanchi. Chapter IX - deals with the early history of the Rashtrakuta i.;milies . The obscure history of one of thesefamilies has been illuminated by the latest discoveries of copperplates. The reign of Govinda III, the greatest Rashtrakuta emperor, has been thoroughly dealt with and several complex problems of his time have been solved in a new fashion. Chapter X - deals with the history of the Rashtrakuta empire down to 975 A.D. Particular attention has been paid here to the empire's relations with the Eastern Chalu- kyas, the Ganges of Mysore, the Kalachuris and others. New reasons have been put forward for the fall of the empire. Chapter XI - deals with the history of the Later Chalukyas down to c. 1000 A.D. New light has been shed on the reigns of Taila II and his son Satyasraya. Further, the history of another branch of the Chalukya dynasty has been treated in the light of new inscriptions. Chapter XII - includes the minor dynasties of Maharashtra. I have put forward a new view as regards the origin of the Early Yadavas. I have fully dealt with the rise of the Silaharas, the Kadambas and the Rattas.

description: SOME BIONOMICS ON MEGATHRIPS INERMIS PRIESNER FOUND IN APULIA (THYSANOPTERA PHLAEOTHRIPIDAE)

Many adults and a few neanides of Megathrips inermis Priesner were obtained in July-August from soil collected under oak-trees (Quercus ilex L.) in Mediterranean-maquis environment. Identification of second- instar neanides was verified from adults emerged in the laboratory. Some first-instar neanides were obtained from eggs deposited in vials by females collected in July.

Field and laboratory observations do support the following bionomics: (a) females oviposit in summer; (b) preimaginal development agrees with the rule in Tubulifera, as it includes 2 instars of neanides and 3 instars of subpupa; (c) because neanides do moult without starving, a new generation of adults starts in summer; (d) soil covered with a layer of dead leaves is the proliferation habitat; (e) because eggs hatch a few time (5-6 days) after they have been discharged, evidence for ovoviviparity does arise.

Key words: eggs, neanides, seasonal occurrence, ovoviviparity.

Viene confermata la presenza in Puglia del tubulifero Megathrips inermis Priesner, sulla base di materiale raccolto in luglio-agosto alla “Gravina di Monsignore” in agro di Conversano (prov. di Bari). Il materiale comprende numerosi adulti e alcune neanidi; è stato estratto da campioni di terreno prelevati alla base di alberi di leccio. Le neanidi della II età sono state identificate ottenendo i relativi adulti in condizioni di laboratorio. Le neanidi della I età sono state ottenute in parte dai campioni di terreno e in parte da uova deposte in laboratorio.

Ulteriori osservazioni attestano quanto segue: (a) il periodo di ovideposizione si colloca in estate; (b) le neanidi si sviluppano in 2 età e non sono soggette a diapausa; (c) lo stadio di subpupa prevede 3 età; (d) una nuova generazione di adulti compare nella stessa estate. Si conferma che il microambiente di proliferazione della specie è un terreno ricoperto da foglie morte di leccio. Poiché le uova ottenute in laboratorio sono schiuse dopo pochi giorni, si suppone che la specie sia ovovivipara.

Parole chiave: uova, neanidi, presenza stagionale, ovoviviparità.
