Abstract:

This is a study on the diversity of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) in Chile and the bionomics of a new EPN species, Steinernema australe. Surveys for EPN were carried out in six regions of Chile, representing some of the principal habitats of the country and including desert, sub-polar, montane and rainforest habitats, by collecting approximately 1400 soil samples. Live-baiting of the samples revealed 101 isolates, 94 of which were Steinernema and seven were Heterorhabditis. Morphological and molecular characterisation revealed one species of Heterorhabditis, designated as Heterorhabditis sp

A review of the species groups of the Neotropical myrmecophilous genus Homopterus Westwood is presented based on the first molecular phylogenetic analysis of the genus and morphological study of 260 specimens. Two new species groups, the H. subcordatus group and the H. filiko group are erected based on the results of the molecular phylogenetic analysis and morphological analysis. The genus consists of one species known only from Dominican amber, H. hispanolienses Nagel, and thirteen extant species, one of which is described as new: Homopterus filiko n.sp. from Peru.

Abstract:

Apicomplexans are diverse single-celled eukaryotes that parasitize animals. The most notorious members include those of particular human interest such as the causative agents of malaria, toxoplasmosis, and cryptosporidiosis. While a subset of apicomplexans has been intensively studied from a medical or veterinary perspective, the diversity of remaining groups is underrepresented in existing literature. This lack of data has left the deep relationships among apicomplexan taxa enigmatic and in turn has hindered the revelation of some major evolutionary processes that sparked the apicomplexan rad

Abstract:

Batoid fishes are among the most threatened and least understood chondrichthyan species worldwide due to their large body size, conservative life-history characteristics, and predominantly coastal distributions where fishing and habitat degradation threaten the stability of populations. A lack of empirical life history data is widespread across batoid taxa — nearly half of all species are considered data deficient, thus hindering species assessments and the development of effective management strategies. Furthermore, many batoid taxa are in need of taxonomic re-examination. Increasing our unde

Abstract:

Sooty molds from Capnodiaceae are epiphyllous saprotrophs that are often associated with sap-sucking insects. The honeydew exuded by these insects serves as the nutritive substrate for the molds. Through this study I identify an unknown sooty mold on Japanese andromeda, Pieris japonica, from northwestern North America. Morphological analysis of the pycnidial state suggested the fungus is a Fumiglobus species, but with substantial differences from the previously reported species from the genus. In this thesis, I illustrate and describe the epiphyllous mold as Fumiglobus pieridicola. I also prov
