First record of Caliothrips phaseoli (Hood, 1912) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) in Apuleia leiocarpa (Fabaceae) seedlings in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil

Abstract

Termos para indexação: Entomologia florestal Mudas TripesResumo -This study aimed to register the occurrence of phyllophagous insects attacking seedlings of Apuleia leiocarpa (Vogel) J. F. Macbr. (grapia), a native species to Brazil, which is on the red list of endangered native flora in Rio Grande do Sul State. In February 2012, adults of the pest Caliothrips phaseoli were identified causing damage to the leaves of 168 two-year-old grápia seedlings (mean stem diameter = 2.3 cm; mean height = 22.5 cm) in Santa Maria, RS. This is the first record of the occurrence of Caliothrips phaseoli in Apuleia leiocarpa seedlings in Brazil.

Reporte de Caliothrips phaseoli (Hood) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae: Panchaeothripinae) en cebolla en Panamá

“…El presente estudio no incluyó elementos como la dispersión geográfica en Panamá y el estatus de C. phaseoli como plaga fitófaga dentro de otras especies de plantas hospederas presentes, cultivos o malezas, como el caso de resultados en otras localidades en América en países como Guatemala, Argentina y Brasil, donde se encuentra en especies de plantas de la familia Fabaceae, Solanaceae y Cucurbitaceae (Beltrán et al, 2004;Bezerra Lima et al, 2020;Boscardin et al, 2019;Flores, 2021;Gamundi et al, 2005;Toledo-Perdomo & Sagastume-Mena, 2019).…”

“…Macbr), Malvaceae (Gossypium sp.) y Solanaceae (incluyó Capsicum annuum L. y Solanum lycopersicum L.) (Bezerra Lima et al, 2020;Boscardin et al, 2019;Silva et al, 2020). En el caso de la especie C. phaseoli no se reporta como vector de Tospovirus (Rotenberg et al, 2015).…”

First record of Caliothrips phaseoli Hood, 1912 (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) causing damage to forage grasses

“…Individuals of C. phaseoli are polyphagous and considered important pests of bean and soybean crops, having also been reported in cotton, peanut, mint, grapia and lettuce plants, among others (Monteiro et al 1999;Beltrán et al 2004;Boito et al 2006;Boiça Junior et al 2015;Lima et al 2016;Ferreira 2018;Boscardin et al 2019;Lima et al 2020;Neves et al 2022;Warpechowsky et al 2024).…”

“…Females being larger than males, measuring approximately 1.1 mm (Lima et al 2020). The cycle from egg to adult lasts around 19 days in bean plants (Sosa et al 2017), with direct damage resulting from sap sucking, which causes injury and, depending on the attack and the plant attacked, punctures and leaf falls (Boscardin et al 2019). The occurrence of thrips in pastures did not appear to be worrying at the time of the cited attack; however, as the damage occurred at the beginning of the grass implantation, it can, in large infestations, reduce the photosynthetic area, delaying plant growth and consequently the formation of the pasture.…”
