Although Aphidiinae parasitoids have been used as agents for biocontrol of alfalfa aphids for more than half a century and have been the subject of numerous ecological investigations, there is an evident lack of systematic studies on the parasitoids of aphids infesting alfalfa in Europe. Here we present an original and up-dated key for identification of both native and invasive Aphidiinae parasitoids attacking aphids that feed on alfalfa in Europe. In total, 20 species are keyed and illustrated with scanning electron micrographs and line drawings.

AbstractWe present new information on the parasitoids (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae) of aphids infesting cotton, tobacco, citrus, and cereal agroecosystems in southeastern Europe. Nineteen species are keyed and illustrated with scanning electron micrographs and line drawings. The aphidiines presented in this work have been identified from 18 aphid taxa. Furthermore, 96 original parasitoid–aphid–plant associations are presented. Cotton, tobacco, and citrus agroecosystems are connected through aphids and their parasitoids, whereas cereal agroecosystems represent a separate group of associations.

AbstractA key to the genera of Scelionidae of the Holarctic region is given. Sixty-seven genera are recognized in three subfamilies, viz. Telenominae, Teleasinae, and Scelioninae. Seven new genera and six new species are described from America north of Mexico, viz. Aradoctonus armatus n. gen. and n. sp. (Telenominae, Telenomini), Embioctonus setiger n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Embidobiini), Epigryon audax n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Gryonini), Exon californicum n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Gryonini), Harringtonia n. gen. for Baryconus cinctus Harrington (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini), Mecix texana n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini), and Spiniteleia campbelli n. gen. and n. sp. (Scelioninae, Psilanteridini). The Nearctic and Palearctic faunas of Scelionidae are compared, analyzed, and tabulated on generic level. Twenty-eight plates with 207 scanning electron micrographs and line drawings are included.

Spore features are the least variable characters and therefore the most reliable for taxonomic purposes. A key for the identification of the 33 species is provided. All species are described and illustrated with line drawings, chromosome numbers are reported, typification and relationships are discussed, and collections are listed; scanning electron micrographs of the spores are provided for 29 species. New taxa described include one section (Viridisquamata), nine species (R. areolata, R. blackii, R. caroliniana, R. collata, R. luticola, R. longiciliata, R. olgensis, R. rorida and R. spongiosula), and five varieties (R. duplex var. megaspora, R. rnultifida var. divaricata, R. rnj?da var. jiliformis, R. mult~jida var. torticolla and R. papulosa var. variabilis). Two binomials are considered to be of uncertain status.

Original Information

Original information on aphidiine braconids attacking aphids feeding on Prunoideae (i.e., Prunus spp.) and Maloideae (i.e., Malus domestica, Cydonia oblonga, Pyrus communis) plants in Southeast Europe is presented. A total of 15 species are keyed and illustrated with scanning electron micrographs and line drawings. The aphidiines presented in this work have been identified from 21 aphid taxa. Ninety-three aphidiine-aphid-plant associations are presented, 21 of which are new.

In this paper a revision of the Afrotropical flea beetle genus Serraphula Jacoby, 1897 is reported. Three species previously attributed to this genus are transferred to the new genus Bechynella gen. n. and the following new combinations are established: Bechynella bohumilae (Bechyné, 1955) comb. n.; Bechynella pallens (Bechyné, 1955) comb. n.; Bechynella sesengensis (Bechyné, 1959) comb. n. The genus Serraphula includes currently 19 species, 16 of which are new to sci-ence: Serraphula aenea Jacoby, 1897; S. elongata Jacoby, 1900; S. puncticollis Bryant, 1944; S. alticola sp. n.; S. audisiana sp. n.; S. bulirschi sp. n.; S. colonnellii sp. n.; S. debiasei sp. n.; S. drakensbergensis sp. n.; S. duplessisi sp. n.; S. grobbelaariae sp. n.; S. monticola sp. n.; S. mpumalangaensis sp. n.; S. natalensis sp. n.; S. oberprieleri sp. n.; S. osellai sp. n.; S. transvaalensis sp. n.; S. uysi sp. n.; S. wittmeri sp. n. Lectotypes for S. aenea, S. elongata and S. puncticollis are designated. A key to all the species is presented as well as line drawings of male and female genitalia, scanning electron micrographs of some diagnostic morphological characters, and autoecological and distributional data.

ABSTRACT Foraminifera are single-celled organisms with and without shells (tests). They have an abundant fossil record over the past 545 million years and presence in modern oceans. The art of forams is dominated by hand-drawn scientific illustrations to scanning electron microscopic images done over the past 455 years, providing vital knowledge about shelled forams. From 1665 to 1835, forams were assigned to micro-invertebrates rather than single-celled forms. With more than 75,000 publications and nearly 50,000 described species of forams, illustrations must number more than 200,000. The illustrations include a range from simple line drawings through shaded ink and pencil renderings, sometimes even colored, to photographs and scanning electron micrographs. Forams also appear in other art forms: The Pyramids at Giza in Egypt, hand-sized models, jewelry, flooring, stamps, coins, sculptures, and a Chinese Foraminiferal Sculpture Park. Foraminiferal art, although very abundant in many forms, has not caught the attention of many people outside of foraminiferology.
