“…Even though we follow the classifi cation proposed by Lacordaire (1848) and our study is based on original generic concepts, we echo the sentiment expressed by Karren (1972) and Reid (1991) that there is a need for a complete reassessment of generic boundaries within Chlamisini, particularly Chlamisus, to refl ect natural groups. Th is study is the fi rst step towards a comprehensive revision of Chlamisini, which will center largely around taxa from the Neotropical Region.…”

“…Nonetheless, the invalid name Fulcidacinae, based on the genus Fulcidax Voet, 1806, has been used previously (Jacobson 1924;Navajas 1944a,b;Chûjô 1940Chûjô , 1942Braga et al 1999). To date, Chlamisus includes the majority of species in the tribe and has become a catch-all genus in need of a comprehensive taxonomic revision (Karren 1972;Monrós 1952;Reid 1991). Lacordaire (1848) proposed14 species groups in Chlamisus.…”

Neotropical Entomology 34(3): 357-362 (2005) Biologia e História Natural de Chlaminus minax Lacordaire (Chrysomelidae: Chlamisinae) RESUMO -Embora muito abundantes nos Neotrópicos, pouco se sabe sobre a biologia, ecologia e história natural dos besouros Chlamisinae brasileiros. No presente estudo investigamos diretamente no Cerrado aspectos da história natural e biologia de Chlamisus minax Lacordaire. Os resultados mostram que a espécie tem ciclo anual, com adultos presentes no campo durante a primavera e o verão, quando ocorre a reprodução. As fêmeas cobrem seus ovos com um "manto", mais tarde as larvas adicionam a casca do ovo e fezes ao manto para a confecção de uma capa cônica, que recobre a larva protegendo-a de seus inimigos naturais. Os seis morfo-estágios larvais são herbívoros, alimentando-se de botões florais de Heteropterys pteropetala A. Juss. (Malpighiaceae). As larvas empupam nas plantas hospedeiras e suas pupas caem no solo permanecendo em diapausa de abril a outubro. Este é o primeiro estudo a investigar a biologia e história natural de um Chlamisinae brasileiro diretamente no campo. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Besouro, Cerrado, comportamento, herbivoria ABSTRACT -Although very abundant in the Neotropics, there is little information about the biology, ecology and natural history of Brazilian Chlamisinae beetles. In the present study we investigated directly in the Cerrado vegetation the aspects of natural history and biology of Chlamisus minax Lacordaire. The results showed that the species has annual cycle and the adults are present in the field during the spring and summer when the reproduction occurs. The females cover their eggs with a mantle, and later on the rests of the egg and faeces are added by the larva to the mantle to produce a protective case. The six larval morpho-stages are herbivorous and feed on floral buds of Heteropterys pteropetala A. Juss. (Malpighiaceae). The larvae pupate in the host plants and after that they fall on the ground remaining in diapause between April and October. This is the first study to investigate the biology and natural history of a Brazilian Chlamisinae beetle directly in the field.

Nine insect species endemic to tropical America have been released into the Northern Territory as biological control agents for Mimosa pigra L. (Mimosaceae). To date, few studies have been published that quantify the abundance of these agents post‐release. Hence, populations of adult agents in three stands of M. pigra were monitored using Malaise traps. Trap catches frequently contained the lepidopteran agents Carmenta mimosa Eichlin and Passoa and Neurostrota gunniella (Busck). Neurostrota gunniella, which was first released in 1989, was the most abundant of all the agents caught, irrespective of the stand of M. pigra where trapping was conducted. The three coleopteran agents (namely Acanthoscelides Schönherr spp., Chlamisus mimosae Karren and Coelocephalapion Wagner spp.) were caught less frequently. Two recently released beetles, Chalcodermus serripes Fåhraeus and Sibinia fastigiata Clark, were not caught. Trap catches of Acanthoscelides spp. were greatest during the late dry season with smaller catches during the mid‐ to late wet season. Chlamisus mimosae was most abundant during the dry to dry–wet transition. Neurostrota gunniella was generally most abundant during the dry season. The abundances of Ca. mimosa and Coelocephalapion spp. exhibited little seasonality. Malaise trapping is recommended as part of a long‐term monitoring program to quantify agent populations and their impact upon M. pigra.
