“…The activity period of O. ocularis during the raining season was similar to that of O. humeralis Thorms in São Paulo State (Paulino Neto et al 2006), but prior to that of O. mirim Martins & Galileo in Tocantins State, Brazil (Lemes et al 2012). This confirms that individuals of the genus Oncideres are more common in rainy and warm periods of the yr (Lemes et al 2012).…”

“…The volume, the surface area and the length of the girdled branches correlate with the number of eggs laid and larva hatched by twig girdlers (Lemes et al, 2014c). These beetles lay eggs far from the edges, preventing their larvae from leaving the branches and ensuring adequate food reserves in any direction they move (Paulino Neto et al, 2006, Lemes et al, 2013.…”

Oncideres saga Dalman: first record damaging Stryphnodendron adstringens Mart. Coville (Fabaceae) in Brazil

et al. 2022

Oncideres females girdle tree branches of the Fabaceae family, interrupting the sap flow and turning the wood conditions ideal for their larvae development. The bark of Stryphnodendron adstringens (Mart.) Coville, a species native to the Brazilian Cerrado, is widely used in the traditional medicine. The objectives were to report, for the first time, Oncideres saga (Dalman), using S. adstringens as a host and to describe the pattern of branch girdling and oviposition distribution by this insect on these branches. The diameter at the base and the length of the girdled branches were measured and the number of incisions made by the O. saga females to oviposit, per branch section (basal, median and apical), counted. The emerged specimens were counted and the diameter of the exit holes measured. The average diameter at the base of the girdled branches was 2.5 ± 0.16 cm and the length was 90.6 ± 4.6 cm. The average number of incisions per branch was 37.7 ± 2.7. Damage by O. saga can reduce the growth and cause losses on S. adstringens, a tree with great extractivism potential.,

“…In D. trifasciata, the attacks were carried out by a mating pair, while in all Oncideres species, girdlers in America, they are carried out only by an individual female [24,[28][29][30] (35-50 cm). Many species of the tribe Onciderini (Cerambycidae) show great specificity toward the host by selecting branches with the desired characteristics [29][30][31].…”

Cerambycidae Diastocera trifasciata attacks were studied from October 2015 to September 2017 in three cashew tree orchards in the locality of Brobo in central Côte d’Ivoire. One hundred fifty-three (153) cashew trees, arranged on a diagonal from each orchard, were selected for sampling. The attacked plants and the branches cut per tree were counted every 15 days. Biotic parameters, namely phenological stages of trees, and abiotic factors, which are rainfall, relative humidity and average temperature, were recorded throughout the study. Attacks were observed from mid-September to January from the pre-flowering vegetative stage to the flowering stage. Attack period duration was therefore four and a half months per year. The peak of attacks was recorded in November with an attack rate of 88.02% in 2015 and 75.49% in 2016. No attack was recorded from February to mid-September, corresponding to the flowering, fruiting and post-harvest vegetative growth stages. This description of the attack process and the determination of D. trifasciata attack periods provides essential data for the implementation of an effective and sustainable control method of this species.
