A new species of Carpophilus Stephens (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae) from New South Wales

Abstract

Synopsis A new species of Carpophilus is described from males and females taken in New South Wales.

Fauna and Seasonal Abundance of Carpophilus spp. (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae) in Four Stone Fruit Growing Regions of Southeastern Australia as Determined by Pheromone‐trapping

“…Dough and pheromone septa were replaced weekly and fortnightly, respectively. All beetles were identified to species (using Dobson 1954Dobson , 1964 except when numbers exceeded 2,000 per trap in which case estimates of numbers for individual species were derived from the species ratio found for 2,000 beetles. Synthetic pheromones.…”

An improved coattractant for pheromone trapping of Carpophilus spp. (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae)

“…Traps were examined weekly, beetles collected and both types of coattractant replaced. Carpophilus beetles were counted and identi®ed to species in the laboratory under a stereomicroscope using the keys of Dobson (1954Dobson ( , 1964. Trapping data were transformed to the log (x + 1) scale to stabilise variance and subjected to analysis of variance.…”

A new species of the genus Carpophilus (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae: Carpophilinae) from Algeria, and taxonomic notes

“…str., and in many specimens of C. (C.) bifenestratus it become rather reduced, particularly in smallest representatives (which were frequently determinated as "Carpophilus bipustulatus"). Dobson [1993] described "Carpophilus delkeskampi australiensis" from Australia differing from C. (C.) delkeskampi and C. (C.) indicus, according to the original description, mostly in the castaneous body with the uniformly lighter elytra and the tegmen with "small angular terminal hyaline projection of the lateral lobes" [Dobson, 1993: 9]. It can be supposed that this form seems to be a separate species of the subgenus Carpophilus s. str.…”
