“…Regarding the faunal analysis, similar results were found by Lazzari and Lazzarotto (2005), who colleted in Serra do Mar 8,134 specimens and identified 87 species of aphids, using Möericke traps. The diversity and abundance of aphids trapped may be explained by trap C (%) = (nasp*100)/na, in which nasp = number of samples with the species occurrence and na = total number of samples.…”

Population fluctuation and faunal indices of aphids (Hemiptera, Aphididae) in peach orchards in Araucária, PR

et al. 2009

Aphids are sap-sucking insects that mainly attack shoots and young leaves of peach trees and many other plant species; however, knowledge of the Brazilian aphid fauna is scant. The objective of this study was to identify aphid species collected in peach orchards (Prunus persica Batsch) and to determine their faunal indices for occurrence and dominance. The experiment was conducted from July 2005 to September 2006 in six Chimarrita peach orchards in the municipality of Araucária, PR, Brazil. The survey of aphid species was conducted by visual samplings on peach trees and using Möericke-type yellow traps containing water. A faunal analysis was made using aphid occurrence and dominance indices. Brachycaudus persicae (Passerini, 1860) was the only aphid species that was found colonizing peach in Araucária/PR. Although most aphids collected were classified as rare, some can be considered potential peach colonizers, such as Myzus persicae (Sulzer, 1776) which was given the status of common or intermediate in some of the orchards studied. The population fluctuation of aphids showed a negative correlation with rainfall and positive correlation with temperature and relative humidity.Keywords: Prunus persica, Aphididae, visual sampling, Möericke trap.Flutuação populacional e índices faunísticos de afídeos (Hemiptera, Aphididae) em pomares de pessegueiros em Araucária, PR ResumoOs afídeos são insetos sugadores de seiva que atacam principalmente brotações e folhas novas de pessegueiros e de diversas outras espécies vegetais, porém o conhecimento sobre a afidofauna brasileira é escasso. O objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar as espécies de afídeos coletadas em pomares de pessegueiros (Prunus persica Batsch) e analisar os índices faunísticos de ocorrência e dominância. O experimento foi realizado de julho de 2005 a setembro de 2006 em seis pomares de pessegueiros da cultivar Chimarrita no município de Araucária, PR. O levantamento das espécies de afídeos foi realizado por meio de amostragens visuais em pessegueiros e armadilhas amarelas de água do tipo Möericke. Brachycaudus persicae (Passerini, 1860) foi a única espécie de afídeo encontrada colonizando pessegueiros em Araucária, PR. Apesar da maioria das espécies de afídeos coletadas serem classificadas como raras, algumas podem ser consideradas colonizadoras potenciais de pessegueiros como Myzus persicae (Sulzer, 1776) que recebeu o status de comum ou intermediária em alguns dos pomares estudados. A flutuação populacional de afídeos apresentou uma correlação negativa com a precipitação pluviométrica e positiva com a temperatura e a umidade relativa do ar.Palavras-chave: Prunus persica, Aphididae, amostragem visual, armadilha Möericke.

“…Currently, it has been found in various South American countries such as Bolivia (Timmer et al, 1981), Peru (Roistacher, 1988), Uruguay, Chile, and Colombia, besides Brazil (Rocha-Peña et al, 1995). There are records of T. citricidus even in forest regions, as the Peruvian Amazon (Ortiz, 1981), and the Atlantic Forest (Lazzari and Lazzarotto, 2005).…”

AbstractAttending ants promote colony survivorship and reproduction of aphid colonies, mainly by protection against natural enemies. However, very few papers are about the assessment of the effect of attending ants directly on individuals of aphids without the presence of other organisms. In this article, a review of the main papers that had assessed the effect of the attendant ant Camponotus punctulatus (Formicidae) on the table of life of the brown-citrusaphid Toxoptera citricidus (Hemiptera: Aphididae) that grows in plants of Citrus sinensis (Rutaceae) without the presence of natural enemies. The ant behavior in the presence of adults and immature individuals of the ladybug Cycloneda sanguinea (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) in colonies kept on Poncirus trifoliata was also evaluated. Nymph survivorship, adult total fertility, reproductive and post-reproductive period were not affected by the attending ants. The elevation of mean and daily fecundity of the aphids attending on the first days has great importance in the population growth. Ant behavior does not depend on the ladybug sex, nor on the colony size, so that ladybug larvae are more tolerated than adults in the aphid colonies. We registered that the behaviour of the aphids is similar independently of their sex and colony size, whereas ladybug larvae are more tolerated than their adults in aphid colonies.

“…Several studies were recently started on mountains, since differing altitudes can simulate a gradient of environmental conditions similar to increasing latitude but within a small geographical range (Hodkinson 2005), thereby facilitating ecological research. Distribution and population fluctuations of phytophagous insects on mountains depend on a sum of factors such as thermal requirements for growth, temperature tolerance, dispersal ability, host plant quality and distribution, phenological synchrony with host plants, and interactions with competitors, parasites and predators (Alonso 1999, Obermaier and Zwolfer 1999, Lazzari and Lazzarotto 2005, references in Hodkinson 2005, Merrill et al 2008). …”

The population phenology of the cassidines, Coptocycla arcuata and Omaspides trichroa, and the chrysomeline, Platyphora axillaris, was studied at Serra dos Órgãos National Park, State of Rio de Janeiro, southeast Brazil. Monthly surveys of larvae and adults were conducted between 2008 and 2011 at approximately 1000 m altitude on their respective host plants, Cordia polycephala (Boraginaceae), Ipomoea philomega (Convolvulaceae) and Solanum scuticum (Solanaceae). This is the first observation of larviparity and host record for Platyphora axillaris. Although having different life history traits, all species showed similar phenologies. They were abundant from October to March, months of high temperatures and intense rainfall, with two distinct reproductive peaks in the same season. Abundance dropped abruptly during the coldest and driest months, from May to August. Frequently none of these species were recorded during June and July. This phenological pattern is similar to other Chrysomelidae living in subtropical areas of Brazil. Temperature and rainfall appear to be the major factors influencing the fluctuation of these three species.
