“…Stink bugs (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) communicate with vibratory signals during reproductive behaviour. This type of communication, established by signals produced by abdominal vibrations, is documented for several phytophagous species, including some neotropical species (Čokl & Virant‐Doberlet, ; Moraes et al ., ; Čokl, ; Silva et al ., ). Among the phytophagous stink bugs (Pentatominae), plant‐transmitted calling, courtship and rival signals are involved in recognizing and localizing mates on a plant, stimulating pairs to copulate, as well as males to compete for a female (Čokl & Virant‐Doberlet, ).…”

“…Communication using vibratory substrate-borne signals has been described in 14 orders of insects, being related to social and/or reproductive behaviours (Čokl & Virant-Doberlet, 2003) or to inter-specific interactions, including mutualistic (Travassos & Pierce, 2000), prey-predator (Castellanos & Barbosa, 2006) or host-parasitoid (Laumann et al ., 2007(Laumann et al ., , 2011 Stink bugs (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) communicate with vibratory signals during reproductive behaviour.

Vibratory communication during reproductive behaviour is less well described in predatory (Asopinae) than in phytophagous (Pentatominae) stink bugs. Different steps in the mating behaviour of the predatory stink bug Podisus nigrispinus (Dallas) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae; Asopinae) are described in the present study, together with vibratory signals emitted on artificial and natural substrate during courtship and copulation. Vibratory signals in Podisus nigrispinus have a decisive role in copulation success and are produced in both sexes by abdominal vibration and tremulation. In P. nigrispinus, one species-specific female and two male songs, which do not show the calling function typically found in phytophagous stink bugs, are produced by abdominal vibration and are emitted during reproductive behaviour. Additionally, P. nigrispinus produces tremulatory signals that have no species or sex specificity. Tremulatory signals emitted spontaneously on a plant as a sequence of readily repeated pulses are similar to the calling songs of the Pentatominae stink bug. These signals may carry information on the presence of a mate; however, in other behavioural contexts, they may have a different function, such as advertisement or even alarm signals. Plants transmit vibratory signals produced by both mechanisms as a low-pass filter, increasing the amount of low-frequency components. The results of the present study raise important questions about the interaction between chemical and vibratory signals in the mating behaviour of predatory stink bugs.

-The objective of this work was to compare the biology of Chinavia impicticornis and C. ubica (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), two species of stinkbugs that occur as secondary pests in soybean. Life table procedures were used for evaluating nymphs, and fecundity tables for evaluating adults, in order to establish the demographics of the two species. The two species have similar demographic parameters, and the development of immature stages, from egg to adult, had similar duration periods of approximately 30 days. In both species, eggs and second-instar nymphs were the stages with higher mortality. Total egg production did not differ between females of both species. Fecundity and survival curves for adults showed similar trends in both species. However, C. ubica had greater potential to increase its populations, since its fecundity parameters were significantly higher than those of C. impicticornis. Moreover, the generational time and the time required to double the population size were shorter in C. ubica. Prolonged longevity, long oviposition period, high fecundity, and the ability to rapidly increase their populations indicate that both species can become potential pests in favorable environments.Index terms: Glycine max, age-specific fecundity, life table, mass rearing, reproductive potential, stinkbugs. Biologia comparada de dois percevejos congenéricos, Chinavia impicticornise C. ubica (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)Resumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi comparar a biologia de Chinavia impicticornis e de C. ubica (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), duas espécies de percevejos que ocorrem como pragas secundárias em soja. Foram utilizados procedimentos de tabelas de vida para a avaliação de ninfas, e tabelas de fertilidade para a de adultos, no intuito de estabelecer os parâmetros demográficos das duas espécies. As duas espécies apresentam parâmetros demográficos similares, e o desenvolvimento dos estágios imaturos, de ovo a adulto, apresentou duração similar, de aproximadamente 30 dias. Nas duas espécies, ovos e ninfas do segundo instar foram os estágios com maior mortalidade. A produção total de ovos não diferiu entre as fêmeas de ambas as espécies. As curvas de fecundidade e de sobrevivência para adultos mostraram tendências semelhantes nas duas espécies. Entretanto, C. ubica apresentou maior potencial de aumentar suas populações, uma vez que seus parâmetros de fecundidade foram significativamente maiores do que os de C. impicticornis. Além disso, o tempo generacional e o tempo necessário para dobrar a população em tamanho foram mais curtos em C. ubica. A longevidade prolongada, o longo período de oviposição, a alta fertilidade e a capacidade de aumentar rapidamente suas populações indicam que ambas as espécies podem tornar-se pragas potenciais, em ambientes favoráveis.Termos para indexação: Glycine max, fecundidade por idade, tabela de vida, criação em massa, potencial reprodutivo, percevejos.

“…O longo período de pré-oviposição e o pequeno número de ovos encontrados neste trabalho nos dois alimentos testados são justificados por uma característica particular desta espécie de pentatomídeo, que de acordo com Silva et al, (2012) O fato de as fêmeas do E. meditabunda sobrevirem e se reproduzirem quando alimentadas com algodoeiro aliada a maior viabilidade dos ovos (56,5 %) demonstra que esta espécie tem capacidade de se reproduzir e gerar descendentes quando se alimenta nesta cultura.…”

RESUMOO percevejo-asa-preta-da-soja Edessa meditabunda (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) dispersa para o algodoeiro e utiliza essa planta como hospedeiro alternativo, após colonizar e multiplicar-se nas áreas de soja circunvizinhas. Visando conhecer o potencial desta espécie como praga em algodoais e auxiliar na tomada decisão quanto ao manejo deste inseto, hipotetizou-se nesse trabalho que o algodoeiro é nutricionalmente adequado para a reprodução e desenvolvimento de E. meditabunda. Os tratamentos testados foram: 1) folhas e maçã de algodoeiro e 2) dieta padrão, recomendada para criação de pentatomídeos fitófagos em laboratório, utilizada como testemunha. As características biológicas avaliadas foram: período de desenvolvimento ninfal, duração de cada ínstar, porcentagem de sobrevivência, peso dos adultos na emergência, longevidade de machos e de fêmeas, período de pré-oviposição e de oviposição, número total de ovos por fêmea e fecundidade das fêmeas. Observou-se que, apesar do prolongamento do período de desenvolvimento ninfal, as ninfas alimentadas com algodoeiro sobreviveram, atingiram a fase adulta e os adultos se reproduziram, o que nos permite sugerir que o algodoeiro seja uma planta nutricionalmente adequada para o desenvolvimento e reprodução de E. meditabunda, permitindo a manutenção do inseto em campo após as colheitas da soja.Palavras-chave: ecologia nutricional, Gossypium hirsutum L., percevejo-asa-preta, planta-hospedeira alternativa. ABSTRACTAt the end of soybean crop cycle, the Brown-winged stink bug Edessa meditabunda (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) scatter to cotton fields using this plant as an alternative host. In order to know if this specie has potential as a cotton pest and to help its management it was hypothesized that cotton is nutritionally adequate for reproduction and development of E. meditabunda. The tested food sources were: 1) cotton bolls and leaves, and 2) standard diet recommended for laboratory rearing of phytophagous pentatomids, used as control treatment. The following biological parameters were evaluated: nymph developmental time, instar duration, survivorship percentage, adult weight at emergence, male and female longevity, duration of pre-oviposition and oviposition periods, total amount of eggs laid by each female, and female fecundity and fertility. Even with an extended nymphal development time, we observed that nymphs fed on cotton structures survived and reached adulthood and the adults reproduced. The results allow us to suggest that cotton is a plant nutritionally suitable for development and reproduction of E. meditabunda, and it allows the insect maintenance in the field after soybean harvests.
