Can stable isotope markers be used to distinguish wild and mass-reared Anastrepha fraterculus flies?

PLoS ONE, 2018
The availability of accurate techniques to discriminate between marked laboratory-reared flies and unmarked wild flies captured in monitoring traps is essential for programs that integrate the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) to manage fruit flies. In this

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

Canopy position and tree size structure the distribution of honeydew‐producing scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) in a temperate hardwood forest

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Scale insect abundance peaked in the upper canopy of sugar maples. Parthenolecanium peaked on older internodes; Lepidosaphes on the current leader. Internodes longer than the previous carried more scales; wider ones fewer. Abstract Forest canopies are vertically stratified habitats in which microclimate and host tissue quality vary with height.

The Meritorious ‘Other’: The Interconnection of Merit and Race in EU Migration and Asylum Law

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Adopting a law‐in‐context approach, this article suggests that merit‐based migrant selection in the European Union (EU) is implicitly shaped by racial dynamics. With a focus on EU law and more specifically on cases from the Netherlands and Germany, it argues that the growing emphasis on merit enables a limited number of ‘racialised others’ to ...

A Systematic Map to Identify Knowledge Gaps on a Vector of Citrus Greening Diseases: The African Citrus Triozid, Trioza erytreae (Del Guercio, 1918) (Hemiptera: Triozidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, citrus production areas are threatened by greening diseases, also known as Huánglóngbíng (HLB), associated with phloem‐limited gram‐negative species of the genus Candidatus Liberibacter. Those pathogens are transmitted by either the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama 1908 (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), or the African citrus ...

Repellence of the South American Fruit Fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann, 1830) (Diptera: Tephritidae) by Plant Extracts

Revista de Gestão e Secretariado
Fruit production has significant economic importance in Brazil, which is the third largest producer in the world. The fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) is among the insect pests that cause significant damage to fruits cultivated in Brazil. The use of  botanical insecticides, plant extracts, and essential oils has been increasingly
