“…This species is placed in the genus Clavaspis MacGillivray on the basis of the robust clavate paraphyses, small anal opening, and basal sclerosis of L1, resembling that of Clavaspis ulmi (Johnson). The paraphyses are not as elaborately developed as those of most Clavaspis species, but they are more developed than some species that have recently been recognized as members of Clavaspis on the basis of molecular phylogenetics -C. perseae (Davidson) and C. patagonensis Schneider, Claps, Wei, Normark & Normark (Normark et al 2014;Schneider et al 2020). Clavaspis virolae is similar to Clavaspis ulmi, but differs in having L2 present, plates fewer, dorsal macroducts fewer, medial paraphysis of first space less developed, and ventral macroduct orifices larger than those of dorsal macroducts.…”

Four new species of armored scale insect, Clavaspis selvaticasp. nov., Clavaspis virolaesp. nov., Davidsonaspis tovomitaesp. nov., and Rungaspis neotropicalissp. nov., are described and illustrated from Panama. We also transfer two previously described species of Panamanian Aspidiotini to new genera, Hemiberlesia crescentiae (Ferris) comb. nov. and Rungaspis rigida (Ferris) comb. nov., and report the first record of Selenaspidopsis browni Nakahara in Panama. A key to the species of Aspidiotini occurring in Panama is provided.

“…Atualmente, as estimativas sugerem que existam mais de 2 milhões de espécies vivas e descritas (BRUSCA et al, 2018). Todos os anos, os cientistas descrevem novas espécies e aumentam esse número (e.g., OCHOA et al, 2017;SCHNEIDER et al, 2020;SILVA, 2020;COLOMBO et al, 2021;FOUQUET et al, 2021;ALNAQEB et al, 2022;PAZ-SEDANO et al, 2022;REIS e DE PINNA, 2022). A Taxonomia e a Sistemática compõem o campo da Biologia responsável por descobrir, nomear, descrever e classificar as espécies (SCHLICK-STEINER et al, 2010).…”

No início da década, as organizações mundiais enxergaram que a preservação e a restauração de ecossistemas-chave contribuiriam para manutenção da vida sustentável do planeta. Nesse cenário, os estudos de taxonomistas e sistematas são extremamente importantes, sendo esses os cientistas responsáveis pela base de todo o conhecimento biológico. Por outro lado, em tempos recentes, essas ciências sofrem com uma perda de prestígio injustificável e parte disso, pode estar associada a falta de interesse e incentivos para a formação de novos cientistas da área. Esse estudo propõe uma análise criteriosa (análises conceitual, qualitativa e quantitativa) de quatro livros didáticos de Biologia do Ensino Médio afim de diagnosticar se a abordagem dos temas chave para tais ciências é satisfatória. Percebemos que alguns dos temas fundamentais estão sendo abordados de forma satisfatória para os entendimentos dessas ciências, porém nenhum dos livros analisados apresentam todos os elementos necessários para fundamentar e despertar nos alunos o interesse em tais ciências. Diante disto, identificamos um problema preocupante com o material didático oferecido que podem prejudicar na formação de gerações de taxonomistas e sistematas vindouras.

A study was conducted on citrus and avocado trees in north‐western Morocco between February 2023 and April 2024 to detect scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha) and their associated natural enemies. A total of 55 orchards in seven provinces were studied. The Florida red scale, Chrysomphalus aonidum (Linnaeus, 1758) (Diaspididae) was found on leaves at two sites: a moderate infestation in one citrus orchard and one specimen on an avocado tree. This work is the first record of the scale insect on avocado in Morocco, and the first morphological description of C. aonidum from the country, based on 100 adult females mounted on microscope slides. Chrysomphalus aonidum is not causing economic damage in citrus or avocado orchards in Morocco. Two ectoparasitoid wasps (Aphytis melinus DeBach and Aphytis sp.; Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae), and three predatory beetles (Rhyzobius lophanthae Blaisdell, Chilocorus bipustulatus Linnaeus, and Clitostethus arcuatus Rosso; Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), were found associated with C. aonidum on citrus leaves.
