Abstract:

The distribution of regular winter bird species to the south of Tenerife is studied on a UTM grid of 1x1 km. Eighteen bird species (i.e. 14 non-passerines & 4 passerines), belonging to 7 families were detected: 5 non-passerines (Anatidae, Rallidae, Charadriidae, Scolopacidae, Sternidae) and 2 passerines (Alaudidae and Motacillidae). Anatidae, Rallidae, Sternidae, Alaudidae were all represented by a single species, whereas Charadriidae by 2 and Motacillidae by 3 species. At least 9 members of the Sandpipers (Scolopacidae) were detected, but some limited their distribution to an important man-made reservoir (Charca del Fraile): Little Stint (Calidris minuta), Black-tailed Godwit (Limosa limosa) and Common Greenshank (Tringa nebularia). It is concluded that conservation measures should try to protect the wintering grounds of the species recorded by this study with particular attention to the waders near El Médano.

Abstract:

Abstract Six species of birds of the family Sternidae are often found on the southern coast of South America. Sterna trudeaui, S. hirundinacea, Thalasseus maximus, T. acuflavidus and Sternula superciliaris are South American residents and Sterna hirundo, a Nearctic migrant. At least 500 species of nasal mites have been described around the world, and Rhinonyssidae is the most diverse family. These mites are bloodsucking endoparasites that inhabit the respiratory system of birds. This study aimed to report on occurrences of nasal mites in Sternidae on the southern coast of Brazil. Of the 106 birds analyzed, 8.5% (9 birds) were parasitized by nasal mites. This report provides the first record in the Neotropical region for two mite species, Sternostoma boydi and Larinyssus orbicularis parasitizing Thalasseus acuflavidus and Sternula superciliaris. No nasal mites were found in Sterna trudeaui or Thalasseus maximus. One host individual (T. acuflavidus) was parasitized by two species of nasal mites, S. boydi and L. orbicularis.

Abstract:

Purpose: to analyze the nesting features of birds of the Sternidae family living in the floodplain meadow of the Pripyat River. Methodology. For research, the route method was used, in which bird nests were identified during direct examination of the territory of the floodplain meadow. Hard-to-reach areas of the meadow were surveyed from a boat. To assess the morphological parameters of the eggs of birds of the Sternidae family, the eggs were measured using a caliper. The length (L) and diameter of the eggs (B) were measured. Based on the measurements, the index of intra-laying variability (iv) was determined. During the study period, 245 eggs of birds of the Sternidae family were measured, of which 88 eggs were in the Common tern, 60 eggs in the Little tern, 51 eggs in the White-winged tern and 46 eggs in the Whiskered tern. Scientific novelty. It has been established that the formation of multispecies colonies of birds of the Sternidae family makes it possible to qualitatively use territories favorable for nesting and provides protection of nests from raptors to accompanying bird species. The smallest intra-laying variability of the studied egg parameters was found in the common and barnacle tern, which is an indicator of the birds’ adaptability to nesting conditions. Conclusions. The nesting of White-winged black and Whiskered tern is directly dependent on floodwater level. A gradual decrease in the level of floodwaters leads to the drying up of the floodplain meadow and the impossibility of building nests, since these species build nests on aquatic plants or floating bogs. Nesting of Little and Common tern is limited by biotic factors, such as predation by Corvidae birds and other animals, as well as anthropogenic factors - people resting on the shore, fishermen and locals visiting the meadow, which in turn creates a disturbance factor for the birds. Among the bird species considered, the maximum value of the index of intra-variability of eggs laying in egg diameter (iv) was found for White-winged black tern (iv = 4.10 ± 0.52). The minimum value of this index is observed in Whiskered tern (iv = 3.41 ± 0.39). It should be noted that differences in this index among Common tern are less pronounced than among Marsh tern The maximum value of the index of intra-variability of eggs laying (iv) was found for Little Tern (iv = 5.42 ± 0.65). The minimum value of this indicator was found in Common tern (iv = 3.90 ± 0.44). For Marsh tern (Whiskered and White-winged black tern), the value of the index of intra-variability of eggs laying length (iv) does not differ significantly.

Abstract:

Abstract The occurrence of shorebirds is strongly influenced by environmental factors, especially food availability. Shorebirds are closely linked to their habitat conditions, so they seek out feeding sites according to their life cycle. Coastal conditions that have changed due to human activities may affect the assemblage of shorebird community. The aim of this study is to determine the diversity of shorebird species and the factors that influence them. Bird observations were made for three days using the point count method while the number of individuals was estimated by using “block method”. The results revealed 17 shorebird species from the families, Charadriidae, Scolopacidae and Sternidae. The dominant species were Charadrius mongolus, Pluvialis fulva and Sterna hirundo. The number of species in the morning observations was higher than in the afternoon. The diversity index for migratory birds ranges from 1.16 to 1.96, which is relatively low. This study showed that mudflats in Bagan Serdang Beach, Pantai Labu District is occupied by shorebirds in this region.

Abstract:

We report new records of the Arctic Tern Sterna paradisaea Pontoppidan, 1763 for the coast of Rio Grande do Sul, southernmost Brazil. Birds were in first alternate plumage, apparently overwintering in the region. A literature and museum review revealed the existence of 21 localities with records of this species in Brazil. Ten specimens were obtained in the country, attributable to eight localities. Records from five other localities were documented with band recoveries or photographs. We were able to clarify information from one of the undocumented records, while the remaining requires further investigation and/or documentation. Our review and new information on migration routes confirm that the Arctic Tern in Brazil is a regular, seasonal visitor from the northern hemisphere. We also suggest that waters off south Brazil may be used by overwintering individuals, especially during the austral winter.

Abstract:

Around forty bird species habitually reproduce in the Northern Hemisphere during summer, and migrate to the Southern Hemisphere during northern winter. These migrating birds fly together in large or small groups until they have reached the Caribbean, Central American, or Brazilian shores. Charadrius semipalmatus, Bonaparte 1825, is one of these migrating species that uses resting and feeding areas along eastern and western coasts of North and South America, with several records for the Brazilian coast, and very few for the inland country. On November 24, 2011, an individual of this species was observed on the banks of one of the lakes that compose a complex of about 40 temporary lakes within the Karst of Lagoa Santa Environmental Protection Area. On October 29 and 30, 2012 a single individual of Gelochelidon nilotica, Gmelin 1789, was also observed in Sumidouro State Park. We suggest that these specimens have used the Atlantic Ocean migration route, following the São Francisco River Basin, until the karst area. Although highly impacted, the temporary lakes within the Karst of Lagoa Santa still harbor a significant number of bird species, and serve as resting and feeding places for migratory or errant species that are still eliciting new records.

Full text

Abstract:

Most tern species (Sternidae) are typically open-ground breeders; the Inca tern (Larosterna inca), however, breeds in crevices. This paper reports the first analysis of nest-site characteristics, predation rates, and breeding success in this species. We tested for evidence of natural selection on nest-site preferences in a colony subjected to high rates of predation by the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus). Characteristics of occupied sites differed from those of non-occupied sites. Terns selected sites with longer chambers, a greater number of cavities, and more overhead and lateral cover that were located close to the cliff edge. Predation was the main cause of breeding failure, and successful sites differed from unsuccessful sites, which is evidence for ongoing natural selection. Chicks at sites in larger crevices and more cavities remained at the site longer and were less likely to be depredated by peregrine falcons. Probably in response to the presence of predators, adults flew towards the colony in flocks, which "dissolved" at the cliff edge. Sites located far from the edge were more likely to be depredated and adults breeding there fed their chicks less frequently and, consequently, reared lighter chicks. The concordance between site preference and predation pressure on nest-site selection suggests that the use of non-preferred sites imposed a cost in the form of increased nest predation.

Abstract:

Abstract Behavioral research has long had an important role in the conservation of terns (Aves: Sternidae). Habitat management and restoration of breeding colony sites depends on knowledge of the cues used to select colony and nest sites. For example, conspecific attraction with playback and decoys is commonly used to bring terns to suitable colony sites and habitat modification is often used to increase the availability of suitable nest sites. Tern colonies are interconnected by dispersal, and a metapopulation approach is needed for effective management. Population dynamics are therefore affected by behaviors that influence the frequency of movement among colony sites: site fidelity, natal and breeding dispersal, and group adherence. The monogamous breeding system of terns should keep effective population size similar to census population size, but variation in sex ratios (likely resulting from sex differences in behavior) and in parental quality can result in a smaller than expected effective population size. In addition to the behavior of terns, knowledge of the behavior of predators on terns contributes to management plans, because predator behavior can sometimes be manipulated and predation is often performed by only a few specialized individuals. Other examples of links between tern behavior and conservation are also briefly reviewed, such as behavioral toxicology research and studies of behavioral responses to human disturbance and manmade structures. More work is needed on the behavior of migratory terns at staging sites, stopover sites and wintering grounds, and on the behavior of less well-studied species and species in less well-studied geographic regions [Current Zoology 60 (4): 500–514, 2014].

Abstract:

The sexual description of adult Psiloptera pertyi was carried out through observations of their external morphological characteristics. Males have their first five abdominal sternites, as well as the seventh and eighth, strongly sclerotized. Females have a similar morphology except the eighth abdominal sternite is not sclerotized. Males have a prominent apex on the seventh sternite, while females have a deep incision in the apical margin of the same segment. Males also have a triangular incision en the extreme posterior margin of the fifth sternite; in females, this segment is rounded. The number and form of the abdominal sternites should be taken into account for sexing adults of P. pertyi.

Abstract. Efficient and rapid decomposition of plant residues, and elimination of the negative impact of pathogenic microflora on the soil environment and the plant organism occurs due to fungi of the genus Trichoderma, which have phytoprotective and growth-promoting properties, have a high degree of decomposition of high-polymer components of plant residues. One of these drugs is Sternifag. The article presents the results of studies that determine the effectiveness of the use of the microbiological preparation Sternifag in the technology of cultivating winter wheat. The research was carried out at the Adyghe research institute of agriculture in the period 2017–2020 gg. on leached chernozem. As a result of the research, it was noted that the use of the Sternifag preparation increased the height of winter wheat, which was 37,4 cm in the booting phase (+39,6 % of the control) and 81,9 cm in the full ripeness phase (+8,9 % to control), the growth of biomass by aboveground organs and their accumulation of dry matter also increased. The inclusion of the Sternifag preparation in the winter wheat cultivation technology significantly increased the yield by 11,2 (low agrobackground) and 9,3 (high agrobackground) % in comparison with the options without its use. The maximum yield – 4,01 t/ha, was obtained on option 4 with the Sternifag preparation, on a high agricultural background. It was determined that the use of this drug in the cultivation of winter wheat improved the protein content in the grain, its nature, and vitreousness. At the same time, it slightly affected gluten and its quality, which determined the grain class, which corresponded to 5 on a low agricultural background, and 4 on other options.

Abstract:

A new species of cicada is described from south India. The new taxon, Purana cheeveeda Sadasivan sp. nov. is easily differentiated from all the other known species of the Purana tigrina species group based on its operculum apex not reaching beyond the anterior margin of sternite 3; tubercles on sternite 4 black and almost as large as those on sternite 3; relatively short rostral length reaching unction of abdominal sternite II and sternite III; the absence of dark fasciae on the transverse grooves of postclypeus, forewing venation, basal lobes of pygofer with large diverging triangular spines and the characteristic pentagonal uncus of the male. The status of Purana tigrina (Walker, 1850) from South India is discussed. The topotypes of the taxon commonly identified as P. tigrina from south India did not match the morphology of the holotype of P. tigrina. In addition, the study of the type specimen of P. tigrina demonstrated that the external morphology and male genital characters of the holotype of P. tigrina match that of P. tigrina from the Malayan region. Hence the type locality is mislabelled. This common taxon from southern India which has been traditionally misidentified is described here as a new species of Purana. As per Articles 76A.1.4 and 76A.2, of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (1999), the type locality of P. tigrina is hereby corrected as Malaysia. Based on the findings, P. tigrina is removed from the south Indian cicada fauna. The new species has some features common to both the Purana carmente group and Purana tigrina group, but most characters agree to Purana tigrina group, hence is tentatively placed in this group. The characters based on coloration may not be useful in species group classification in Purana, hence structural features like male genitalia and venation are taken to revise the existing species group keys. A modified key to the Purana species groups and members of the P. tigrina species group is also provided.

AbstractTwo non-destructive sexing techniques suitable for use in the field and laboratory are described, and tested with the Warren root collar weevil, Hylobius warreni Wood (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). On the second visible abdominal sternite of males is a longitudinal depression that is absent on females. In addition, setae on the last visible abdominal sternite of females are arranged longitudinally; setae on males are arranged radially. For the first character, accuracy was 90% and sex could be determined without the aid of magnification. The latter character was slightly more reliable, at 95% accuracy, but required at least 12× magnification.

Abstract:

AbstractA method for determining the sex of live adult Laricobius nigrinus Fender (Coleoptera: Derodontidae) is described. Beetles were briefly chilled and positioned ventral-side-up under a dissecting microscope. Two forceps with blunted ends were used to gently brace the beetle and press on the centre of the abdomen to extrude its terminal segments. Male beetles were distinguished by a sclerotised, reticulate ninth abdominal sternite. In females, the distinct ovipositor (tergite, valvifers (ninth sternite), and laterotergites of the ninth abdominal segment) was visible. The procedure was rapid and harmed only a small number of individuals (fewer than 5%).

Full text

Abstract:

Adult abdominal segments of Drosophila are subdivided along the dorso-ventral axis into a dorsal tergite, a ventral sternite and ventro-lateral pleural cuticle. We report that this pattern is largely specified during the pupal stage by Wingless (Wg), Decapentaplegic (Dpp) and Drosophila EGF Receptor (DER) signaling. Expression of wg and dpp is activated at the posterior edge of the anterior compartment by Hedgehog signaling. Within this region, wg and dpp are expressed in domains that are mutually exclusive along the dorso-ventral axis: wg is expressed in the sternite and medio-lateral tergite, whereas dpp expression is confined to the pleura and the dorsal midline. Neither gene is expressed in the lateral tergite. Shirras and Couso (1996, Dev. Biol. 175, 24–36) have shown that tergite and sternite cell fates are specified by Wg signaling. We find that DER acts synergistically with Wg to promote tergite and sternite identities, and that Wg and DER activities are opposed by Dpp signaling, which promotes pleural identity. Wg and Dpp interact antagonistically at two levels. First, their expression is confined to complementary domains by mutual transcriptional repression. Second, Wg and Dpp compete directly with one another by exerting opposite effects on cell fate. DER signaling does not affect the expression of wg or dpp, indicating that it interacts with Wg and Dpp at the level of cell fate determination. Within the tergite, the requirements for Wg and DER function are roughly complementary: Wg is required mainly in the medial region, whereas DER is most important laterally. Finally, we show that Dpp signaling at the dorsal midline controls dorso-ventral patterning within the tergite by promoting pigmentation in the medial region.

Abstract:

Abstract The article discusses the results of investigations carried out within the framework of the research project commissioned by the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation in 2020. In August 2019, a field experiment was laid for the disposal of straw of spring barley of Vladimir variety using a special machine for this, i.e. a unit for utilizing the non-grain part of the crop as a fertilizer. When disposing straw, it was processed with biopreparations-destructors: Agrinos-1 (2 l/ha), Sternifag SP (0.08 kg/ha), Biocomplex BTU (1 l/ha), humic product Ekorost (0.4 l/ha). The straw was crushed and embedded in the soil on the control plot without treatment with biological preparations. It was found that the process of straw decomposition is more intensive compared to that of 2018-2019 on average by 5 %. The variants with Agrinos 1 and Sternifag SP treatment showed better results and accelerated the degradation process by 20 % compared to the control. The biological productivity of spring oats of Skakun variety showed that all studied biological products had a positive effect on the increase in yield. The best indicators were achieved on the variants with Agrinos-1 and Sternifag SP equal to 48.9 dt/ha and 45.4 dt/ha, respectively (the control was 36.4 dt/ha).

Abstract:

To date, no accurate identification method has been established for distinguishing mantis species of the genus Tenodera at all instar nymphal stages. In this paper, all instar nymphal stages of Tenodera fasciata (Olivier, 1792) are described in detail. This is the first step toward establishing an identification method for distinguishing the species from other members of the genus, particularly, T. angustipennis Saussure, 1869, which is sympatric with T. fasciata in Japan. Morphological differences between instars in nymphal stages, and between male and female in nymphal stages, were found. However, there was no difference between male and female 1st instars. Sex in nymphal stages are identified by the presence or absence of a crack at the posterior margin of the abdominal sternite IX between immature gonoplacs, the shape of the posterior margin of the sternites VII and IX, the occurrence of gonapophyses on the sternite VIII, and so on. Instars in nymphal stages are identified by body length, the length of discoidal spines of the profemur, the shape and size of the wing pads, the shape of abdominal sternite VII to IX, and so on.

Its single species, Evemphyron sinense Alonso-Zarazaga, Lv & Wang, sp. n., was reared from larvae found inside seed pods of the legume Callerya dielsiana (Fabaceae, Millettieae) in Sichuan Province (China). The species is figured and placed in the Deporaini because of the presence of minute labial palpi, the strongly crescentic apex of the postmentum, and the apodemes of male IX sternite and female VIII sternite curved sinistro-anterially near their cephalic end. It shows 3-segmented labial palpi and male sex patches on the procoxae, characters that suggest a basal position in the tribe.

Abstract:

The chirostyloidean squat lobster genus Gastroptychus Caullery, 1896 is revised and is split into two genera: Gastroptychus sensu stricto (type species, Ptychogaster spinifer A. Milne-Edwards, 1880) and Sternostylus new genus (type species, Ptychogaster formosus Filhol, 1884). Gastroptychus sensu stricto, is restricted to nine species with a sternal plastron, at sternite 3, abruptly demarcated from the preceding sternites (excavated sternum) by a distinct step forming a well-defined transverse or concave anterior margin at the articulation with maxillipeds 3, the maxillipeds 3 widely separated, with the distal parts accommodated in the excavated sternum between the left and right maxillipeds 3 when folded, and the P2–4 dactyli with the terminal spine demarcated by a suture. Sternostylus new genus, represented by 12 species, has the sternite 3 anteriorly bluntly produced medially and steeply sloping anterodorsally to the anterior sternite, with a pair of spines directly behind the anterior margin, the left and right maxillipeds 3 adjacent, and the P2–4 dactyli ending in an indistinctly demarcated corneous spine. The above-mentioned characters of Gastroptychus are consistent with Chirostylidae sensu stricto. Published molecular phylogenies indicate, however, that Sternostylus is the sister group to all the other Chirostylidae, and is designated the type genus of a new family, Sternostylidae.

Abstract:

The genus Lissochlora was described by Warren (1900) and revised by Pitkin (1993) with respect to the fauna of Costa Rica. Lissochlora has a small spur or kink to its aedeagus and is distinguished from related genera by the absence of basal costal process of the valva in the male genitalia, which is present in Nemoria Hübner, Rhodochlora Warren and Paromphacodes Warren (Pitkin 1993, 1996). Paromphacodes, Lissochlora and Nemoria cluster together, sharing a bilobed eighth sternite and the presence of a costal sclerite or ornamentation on the valva (Viidalepp 2017). Usually species of Lissochlora have a shorter uncus in the male genitalia than that of related genera, and the last abdominal sternite of the male is usually shorter than the corresponding tergite (Viidalepp 2017).

The genus Typhlonida Macpherson & Baba in Machordom et al. 2022 is a group of munidid squat lobsters typically found in deep waters. This study describes and illustrates a new species, Typhlonida cocoensissp. nov., from a seamount area in the eastern Pacific. Typhlonida cocoensissp. nov. is closely related to T. sanctipauli (Henderson, 1885) but can be readily distinguished from the latter by its relatively small eyes, narrow anterior margin of the thoracic sternite 4, lack of granules on the lateral surfaces of sternite 7, and unarmed anterior branchial regions dorsally. In addition to morphological comparisons, genetic distance and phylogenetic analyses were used to support the recognition of this new species. The phylogenetic positions of the Typhlonida and Antillimunida species from the eastern Pacific are discussed.

Abstract:

The effectiveness of chemical, fungal and bacterial fungicide treatments of spring soft wheat seeds and stands against major diseases was compared on leached chernozem of Novosibirsk region in 2021. Biological preparations including Sternifag, WP (Trichoderma harzianum) showed effect as early as in the tillering phase. The biologicals’ effectiveness in root rot suppression was comparable to Scarlet, ME (imazalil+tebuconazole) and amounted to 62–64 %, while Sternifag, WP halved the disease development. By the end of the growing season, all treatments, including the chemical one, equally suppressed root rot development; the best option was Scarlet, ME + Vitaplan, WP (Bacillus subtilis) with biological efficiency of 38 %. In the case of severe pressure by Septoria blotch (33 % in control), the most effective treatment was spraying the crop on the earing stage with Titul 390, KKR (propiconazole), which reduced the incidence of Septoria blotch by 84.3 %, while biologicals had no effect. The powdery mildew was best suppressed by seed treatment with Scarlet, ME (73.9 %), and the brown rust was best suppressed by Scarlet, ME + Vitaplan, WP (78.8 %). The vegetation treatments inhibited the powdery mildew by 41–54 % but didn’t show a reliable effect against the brown rust. Seed treatment with microbial fungicides increased soil cellulolytic activity by 1.5–1.8 times while chemical disinfectant reduced it. The amount of plant residues decreased by 2.5–2.8 times due to the application of Sternifag, WP. The greatest increase in grain yield was obtained due to chemical fungicides - 0.64 t/ha, while biological preparations resulted in additional 0.25–0.33 t/ha.
