“…Following her observations, we consider the following aedeagal characters into account. The penis of some entimines has a sclerotized structure in the proximal portion of the internal sac within the median lobe, referred as genital sclerite ( Bruhn, 1947 ; Oberprieler, 2014 ; Jansen & Franz, 2015 , 2018 ). In Isodacrys the genital sclerite within the median lobe is absent, but a proximal flagellum can be present ( Fig.…”

“…Based on Howden’s remarkable contributions, one of the logical and subsequent steps to contribute to the knowledge of the American Tanymecini is the discussion and evaluation of the boundaries among these lineages and discussion of their evolutionary history through phylogenetic analyses ( Gillet et al, 2018 ). As taxonomic concepts, relationships and classifications within Curculionidae are frequently tentative or poorly supported, the choice among mid-level classifications generally remains a matter of author preferences ( Oberprieler, 2014 ). Nevertheless, focusing on a taxonomically manageable lineage such as a genus may yield rather compelling results and contribute to our understanding of weevil evolution ( Franz & Engel, 2010 ).…”

The genus Isodacrys Sharp, 1911 is revised. Twenty species of the genus are recognized ranging from south United States of America, Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras of which eight are herein described as new. These species are Isodacrys antrum Cortés-Hernández, new species (Mexico: Tamaulipas, Chiapas; Guatemala: Baja Verapaz); Isodacrys carlae Cortés-Hernández, new species (Mexico: Coahuila, Hidalgo, Nuevo León, San Luis Potosí, Tamaulipas); Isodacrys confusum Cortés-Hernández, new species (Mexico: Tamaulipas); Isodacrys fasciatum Cortés-Hernández, new species (Mexico: Coahuila, Durango, Nuevo León); Isodacrys frontalis Cortés-Hernández, new species (Mexico: Oaxaca; Guatemala: Sacatepéquez, Guatemala); Isodacrys kuchii Cortés-Hernández, new species (Mexico: Puebla); Isodacrys obrienorum Cortés-Hernández, new species (Guatemala: Totonicapán, Jalapa, San Marcos); and Isodacrys okuiltontli Cortés Hernández, new species (Mexico: Oaxaca). Insights into the monophyly of Isodacrys and its phylogenetic relationships with other Tanymecini based on adult morphology are given by implementing a phylogenetic analysis of 43 terminals (21 ingroup, 22 outgroup) coded for 72 adult morphological characters. Characters were discussed and highlighted for the inclusion in the phylogenetic analysis. Final analysis yielded two most-parsimonious cladograms of 242 steps, which support the monophyly of Isodacrys. Isodillex Cortés-Hernández, new genus is here described to accommodate Isodillex minutum (Sharp, 1911), new combination and Isodillex plumosum Cortés-Hernández, new species (Mexico: Zacatecas). Isodillex was recovered as sister group of Isodacrys. Key to separate Isodacrys species, occurrence map and habitus photographs are also provided.

“…The lifestyle occurs in at least eight tribes of the subfamily Curculioninae (Caldara et al 2014). It has also been recorded in the supertribes Bariditae and Ceutorhynchitae of the subfamily Conoderinae (Prena et al 2014) and for the tribes Gonipterini and Hyperini, currently unassigned to subfamily (Oberprieler et al 2014).…”

“…The larvae of three species of Cydmaea (Curculioninae: Storeini) have been reported to mine in leaves of Hakea (Proteaceae) (Moore 1966), but the larvae also develop in buds and flowers of these plants and do not specifically appear to be leaf-miners. However, larvae of the genera Syarbis (Gonipterini) and Gerynassa (Hyperini), evidently are true leaf-miners (Oberprieler et al 2014), as are those of Austrocis and Platynotocis (Viticiini) (Caldara et al…”

Host-plants of leaf-miners in Australian subtropical rainforest

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Leaf-miners are endophytic insect herbivores that are considered to be relatively host-specific compared with other types of insect herbivores, often depending on one or a few congeneric hosts. Due to their degree of host-specificity, they may be particularly vulnerable to environmental change. Despite this, little is known about the host-plants and life histories of the Australian leaf-mining fauna. Here, we present new information on the host-plant use of leaf-miners occurring in Australian subtropical rainforest. We repeatedly hand-collected leafminers at 14 sampling sites within the 'Tweed Caldera' subtropical rainforest region of southeastern Queensland and north-eastern New South Wales, Australia. Leaf-miners and their host-plants were identified to species (or morphospecies in the case of some leaf-miners).Within the region, a total of 106 plant species was recorded as leaf-miner hosts, on which a total of 12679 individual leaf-miners was counted, belonging to 50 different species. We measured the local host-plant range of each leaf-miner species for which we had reliable incidence records across sampling sites (24 species). Local host-specificity was relatively high with 66.7 % of species recorded from a single or two congeneric host-plants. 16.7 % of 2 species were restricted to a single plant family and 16.7 % were recorded on a few to several plants within the same plant order or across a range of unrelated host-plants.

“…Curculionidae Latreille, 1802 is one of the most diverse groups of insects, with about 4,600 genera and 51,000 described species in the world (Oberprieler et al, 2014). Even though one of the most recognizable families of Coleoptera, the classification of the subfamilies and tribes of Curculionidae remains highly controversial (about classification within Curculionidae, e.g.…”

This paper reports the results of the curation of specimens of Dryophthorinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) housed in the Entomological Collection of the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi (MPEG), Belém, state of Pará, Brazil. The Collection holds a total of 1,071 specimens, with 90% of them previously unidentified. We reviewed all specimens and identified them to species level, resulting in 16 genera and 32 species of Dryophthorinae. These include the type specimens of three species: Cyrtomasius marluciae Vanin, 1998; Foveolus maculatus O’Brien, 2003; and Paramasius cristulatus Vanin, 1998. The genus Rhodobaenus Le Conte, 1876 was recorded for the first time to Brazilian Amazon. All specimen data were digitized and are now publicly available. Currently, 50% of the richness of the Dryophthorinae recorded from Brazilian Amazon is present in the Collection. The occurrence and the species richness of the Dryophthorinae examined are shown on a map. All labels contents and remarks to type material are presented. High resolution photographs of the primary types are also provided. The material examined represents a temporal and spatial record of Amazonian Dryophthorinae.
