Resumo. Aphis craccivora Koch (Hemiptera: Aphididae), um afídeo altamente polífago e praga de muitas culturas de interesse econômico, é relatado pela primeira vez causando deformações na gema apical e nos folíolos novos de mudas de Dalbergia miscolobium Benth (Leguminosae) em Brasília, Distrito Federal, Brasil. Diferentes concentrações de soluções de detergente neutro e água foram testadas para controlar o afídeo, com o uso de nove mudas infestadas. Os afídeos foram previamente contados em cada planta e dois tratamentos foram utilizados (detergente neutro a 5% e 10%), além da testemunha, onde só foi aplicado água. Ambas as doses causaram mortalidade e a concentração de 5% apresentou 83,8% de eficiência, o que indica que esse tratamento é eficaz para diminuir a população desses insetos em mudas de jacarandá-do-cerrado.Occurrence and control of the black aphid, Aphis craccivora Koch (Hemiptera: Aphididae), on “jacarandá-do-cerrado” seedlings (Dalbergia miscolobium Benth.) with the use of neutral detergentAbstract. Aphis craccivora Koch (Hemiptera: Aphididae), a highly polyphagous aphid and pest of many economic crops, is reported for the first-time causing deformations in the apical bud and on the new folioles of Dalbergia miscolobium Benth (Leguminosae) seedlings in Brasilia, Federal District, Brazil. Different concentrations of neutral detergent and water solutions were tested to control the aphid using nine infested seedlings. The aphids were previously counted in each plant and two treatments were used (5% and 10% of neutral detergent), and the control, where only water was applied. Both concentrations caused mortality and the 5% showed an efficiency of 83.8%, which indicates that this treatment is effective to decrease the population of these insects in “jacarandá-do-cerrado” seedlings.

Dalbergia miscolobium or Jacarandá do Cerrado is a species of legume in the Fabaceae family. It occurs in the sensu stricto Cerrado and in the dystrophic cerradão. It shows potential for landscaping and for recovering damaged areas. It is an endangered species and therefore is protected by the law that prevents cut in areas of the Federal District (Decree No. 14.783/93). The purpose of this study was to determine the best procedure to prepare seeds of Dalbergia miscolobium to assess viability in the tetrazolium test. We carried out the following treatments: i) hydration on filter paper at 25 ° C, ii) hydration on filter paper at 25 ° C followed by a cut in the tegument and iii) hydration on filter paper at 25 ° C followed bya complete removal of the tegument. The results were analyzed using analysis of variance and the Tukey range test. The analyzes showed that the best procedure to prepare seeds of Dalbergia miscolobium is the treatment in which there is a hydration followed by the complete removal of the integument. Where 78% of the seeds showed uniform staining, indicating that the seeds analyzed are of good quality. The other treatments, hydration and hydration followed by cutting, showed respectively 35% and 41% of viable seeds. RESUMO A Dalbergia miscolobium ou Jacarandá do Cerrado é uma espécie de leguminosa da família Fabaceae. Ocorre no sentido stricto Cerrado e no cerradão distrófico. Possui potencial para paisagismo e para recuperar áreas degradadas. É uma espécie ameaçada de extinção e, portanto, está protegida pela lei que previne o corte em áreas do Distrito Federal (Decreto 14.783 / 93). O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar o melhor procedimento de prepararação das sementes de Dalbergia miscolobium para serem submetidas à análise de viabilidade pelo teste de tetrazólio. Foram realizados os seguintes tratamentos: i) hidratação em papel de filtro a 25 ° C, ii) hidratação em papel de filtro a 25 ° C seguida de um corte no tegumento e iii) hidratação em papel de filtro a 25 ° C seguido de remoção completa do tegumento. Os resultados foram analisados utilizando-se a análise de variância e o teste de médias de Tukey. As análises mostraram que o melhor procedimento para preparar sementes de Dalbergia miscolobium é o tratamento em que há uma hidratação seguida pela remoção completa do tegumento, onde 78% das sementes apresentaram coloração uniforme, indicando que as sementes analisadas são de boa qualidade. Os demais tratamentos, hidratação e hidratação seguida de corte, mostraram respectivamente 35% e 41% de sementes viáveis.

Two new species and one new record species of the genus Pseudonereis are described from specimens collected from ecological surveys of coasts of Taiwan and an offshore island during the past 15 years: P. jihueiensis n. sp., P. kihawensis n. sp., and P. trimaculata. Epitokes of P. jihueiensis n. sp. and P. trimaculata are also described. Pseudonereis jihueiensis n. sp. can be distinguished from congeners by having edentate jaws, χ-shaped ridge pattern of Areas VI–V–VI, parapodial morphology (i.e., length ratio of dorsal cirrus to dorsal ligule or presence of small pennant-like dorsal ligule, shape of dorsal ligule in certain region of chaetigers), and no heterogomph spinigers in the subacicular fascicle of the neuropodia. Pseudonereis kihawensis n. sp. differs from congeners by having crescent-shaped pointed-bars in Area VI, λ-shaped ridge pattern of Areas VI–V–VI, parapodial morphology (i.e., length ratio of dorsal cirrus to dorsal ligule or presence of small pennant-like dorsal ligule or shape of dorsal ligule in certain region of chaetigers), and no heterogomph spinigers in the subacicular fascicle of the neuropodia. Pseudonereis trimaculata, a species originally described from Indonesia, is reported from Taiwan for the first time. A table of key characters for all species of Pseudonereis is provided.
