Simuliidae belong to the order Diptera, suborder Nematocera, Infraorder Culicomorpha, Superfamily Chironomoidea, and Family Simuliidae. They are known as “borrachudo” or “pium” in Brazil and as “black flies” in English-speaking countries. This study objective to report the characteristics of the Family Simuliidae. The research was carried out in studies related to quantitative aspects of the Family, Subfamily and Species (taxonomic groups) and conceptual aspects such as: biology, geographical distribution, species, life cycle, damage, economic importance, medicinal importance, biological aspects, and reproduction.

Fruit flies belong to the Tephritidae Family which is one of the largest within the Order Diptera. This family is among the pests with the greatest economic expression in the world's fruit industry, as they attack the reproductive organs of plants, fruits with pulp and flowers. These insects are an important group of pests in the fruit industry worldwide, as they have a life cycle in which their larval period develops especially inside the fruits, feeding, in general, on their pulp. The objective of this study is to report the Ecology and Biology of Tephitidae. The research was carried out in studies related to quantitative aspects of the Family, Subfamily and Species (taxonomic groups) and conceptual aspects such as: biology, geographical distribution, methodologies, and traps for collecting and their parasitoids and strategies for Drosophlidae with control, species, life cycle, damage, economic importance, medicinal importance, biological aspects, monitoring and control and reproduction.

We studied species composition, density, biomass and production of larvae of the family Ceratopogonidae in two saline rivers (Volgograd region, Russia). Ceratopoponids make up an important part of macroinvertebrate community in these rivers. Average monthly production (dry weight) of ceratopogonid larvae in the rivers was 3.5–4.8gm–2 month–1 in May and ~0.9gm–2 month–1 in August. For the first time, feeding spectra of ceratopogonid larvae, Palpomyia schmidti Goetghebuer, 1934, was studied using fatty acid analyses. The larvae of P. schmidti appeared to selectively consume diatoms and other algae and to avoid bacteria and decomposed dead organic matter (detritus) of low nutritive quality.

Panulirus longipes femoristriga atau lobster batik merah merupakan salah satu jenis tropical spiny lobster dari Famili Palinuridae yang jarang ditemukan di Perairan Indonesia. Untuk itu penting dilakukan pengamatan aspek biologi lobster batik merah ini dan sejarah penemuannya di perairan Indonesia. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan pendekatan metode percobaan penangkapan dengan tangan dan bantuan kompresor. Beberapa analisis yang dilakukan antara lain analisis komposisi, kelas ukuran, kebiasaan makanan, analisis tingkat kematangan gonad dan fekunditas. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa berdasarkan sejarah ditemukan, lobster batik merah (P. l. femoristriga) merupakan tropical spiny lobster dari kelompok Palinuridae dan merupakan salah satu sub varian dari lobster batik (P. longipes). Jenis ini tercatat ditemukan di perairan Lombok sebagai lokasi ke empat di Indonesia setelah Perairan Sulawesi, Papua Barat, dan Ambon. Komposisinya di perairan menempati nilai prosentase bobot dan jumlah masing masing dalam kisaran 11,26-12,03 % dan 21,28- 22,5 %, berada di urutan ke empat setelah lobster batu, bambu dan batik. Struktur ukuran hasil tangkapan didominasi ukuran larang tangkap. Kebiasaan makanan dari lobster batik merah terdiri atas kelompok moluska: jenis gastropoda dan bivalvia, krustasea jenis udang udangan dan kepiting serta makrofita. Fekunditas bekisar antara 8.332 – 66.076 butir dengan diameter telur berkisar antara 0,45-0,79 mm. Panjang karapas dan bobot pada saat pertama kali matang gonad masing-masing adalah 3,8 – 4,7 cm (4.3 cm) dan 66,12 – 106,45 gr. (rata rata 87,58 gr).Panulirus longipes femoristriga or red batik lobster (white-whiskered coral crayfish) is one type of tropical spiny lobster from the Family of Palinuridae that is rarely found in Indonesian waters. It is important to observe the biological aspects of this red batik lobster and the history of its discovery in Indonesian waters. The research was carried out using a hand-held method of and compressor equipment. Several analyzes were performed, among others, composition analysis, class size, food habits, maturity level analysis of gonad and fecundity. The results showed that based on the history of the red batik lobster (P. l. femoristriga) tropical spiny lobster of one of sub variants of batik lobster (P. longipes). This species recorded is found in the waters of Lombok as the fourth location in Indonesia after the waters of Sulawesi, West Papua, and Ambon. Its composition occupies precentage value of weight and number of each in the range of 11.26 to 12.03% and 21.28 to 22.5% respectively, ranked as fourth after rock, bamboo and batik lobsters. The size of the catch is dominated by the size of the ban. The food habit of red batik lobsters of mollusks: gastropods and bivalves, crustaceans (shrimps) and crabs as well as macrophytes. Fecundity ranged between 8,332 - 66,076 eggs, with diameter ranging from 0.45 to 0.79 mm. The carapace length and weight at the first mature gonad ranged between 3.8 - 4.7 cm (4.3 cm) and 66.12 - 106.45 gr (average 87.58 gr), respectively.

The species Syzygium cumini, Syzygium malaccense and Syzygium jambos, belong to the family Myrtaceae and are popularly known, respectively, by jambolan, red jambo and yellow jambo. These species are used in traditional medicine to treat diabetes mellitus, asthma, bronchitis, diuresis, gastrointestinal and respiratory infections, properties antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, antirheumatic and several other uses. The objective of this work is to identify and quantify the volatile compounds in the leaves of S. cumini, S. malaccense and S. jambos. The volatile oils were obtained by hydrodistillation using Clevenger apparatus and analyzed by Gas Chromatography Coupled to Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). It was possible to identify 44 compounds present in the volatile oils of the leaves, being 20 compounds of S. cumini, 9 compounds of S. malaccense and 15 compounds of S. jambos. The major compounds present in the species S. cumini were α-terpineol, β-caryophyllene and α-humulene; for the species S. malaccense were aristolochene, γ-himachalene and δ-amorphene; and for S. jambos species were β-cariophyllene, (E,E)-α-farnesene and cariophyllene alcohol. The species S. cumini, S. malaccense and S. jambos showed considerable differences in terms of volatile compounds, it is important to know their constituents in order to promote further studies focused on their medicinal potential.

Coleoptera of the family Melolonthidae plays an important role in decomposition and nutrient recycling in the environment, however the information of this group is scarce in Brazil; therefore studies were developed with the objective of understanding the biological aspects of saproxylophagous. The studies were developed in the experimental farm of the State University of Mato Grosso do Sul, in Aquidauana, from March 2011 to April 2012. In a forest fragment of the cerrado, when encountering fallen tree trunks, they were cut into small pieces for extraction and acquisition of immature and adult Melolonthidae. Larvae were taken to the laboratory where they were reared until emergence of adults, obtaining biological and biometric data. A total of 145 larvae and 11 adults were collected. Third instar larvae of Strategus surinamensis Burmeister, 1847, collected in this phase lasted 230 days and 31.3 days in the pupal stage. Third instar larvae of Phileurus valgus (Linnaeus, 1758), in this phase lasted 49 days and 13 days in the pupal stage. Third instar larvae Pelidnota fulva Blanchard, 1850, after being collected remained for 61 days in this phase and 25.3 days in the pupal stage. AdultsPelidnota aff. vazdemeloi were collected inside tree trunks. ToMacraspis festiva Burmeister, 1844, the third instar larvae collected lasted for 39 days at this stage, and pupae lasted 17 days. Third instar larvae of Rutela lineola(Linnaeus, 1767), in this phase lasted 23 days, and pupae lasted 16.3 days. ToHoplopyga liturata (Olivier, 1789), third instar larvae collected lasted 21 days and pupae lasted 18 days. To Hoplopyga boliviensis (Moser, 1918), third instar larvae lasted 33 days and pupae 16 days. Second and third larval instarMarmarina maculosa (Olivier, 1789) collected lasted respectively, 105 and 171.3 days and pupae lasted 26 days. The species collected in greatest quantity were M. festiva with 75 larvae,R. lineola with 20 larvae and H. boliviensis with 18 larvae. Larvae were collected during several months, where in July 32 larvae were sampled and in August 39 larvae, the largest quantities encountered.
