The paper presents a complete description of the morphology of the preimaginal stages of Cryptonevra flavitarsis (Meigen, 1830), an inquiline in galls of Lipara flies on common reed (Phragmites australis). All stages are described for the first time. In descriptions of the larval stages, particular attention is given to the diagnostic characters: facial mask, cephaloskeleton, anterior and posterior spiracles, and locomotory structures. The paper forms a basis for future descriptions of the yet unknown life cycle of this fly.

All preimaginal stages of Lipara pullitarsis are described and illustrated. The facial mask, cephaloskeleton, spiracles and locomotory structures are considered. This is the first description ofthe first- and second-instar larva. The descriptions of the third-instar larva, egg and puparium are expanded. This paper forms a basis for a complete description of the life history of this fly.

Cosmosoma auge(Linnaeus 1767) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) is a Neotropical arctiid moth common in Cuban mountainous areas; however, its life cycle remains unknown. In this work,C. augelife cycle is described for the first time; also, immature stages are described using a Cuban population. Larvae were obtained from gravid wild females caught in Viñales National Park and were fed with fresh leaves of its host plant, the climbing hempweedMikania micranthaKunth (Asterales: Asteraceae), which is a new host plant record. Eggs are hemispherical and hatching occurred five days after laying. Larval period had six instars and lasted between 20 and 22 days. First and last larval stages are easily distinguishable from others. First stage has body covered by chalazae and last stage has body covered by verrucae as other stages but has a tuft on each side of A1 and A7. Eggs and larvae features agree with Arctiinae pattern. Pupal stage lasted eight days, and, in general, females emerge before males as a result of pupal stage duration differences between sexes.

Fourteen species of Chalcidoidea (Encyrtidae, Eulophidae, Eupelmidae, Eurytomidae, Pteromalidae and Torymidae) were obtained from the common reed, Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud. (Poaceae) in the Urmia region, in the northwest of Iran. Among these species, two new species of Pteromalidae are described hereafter: Norbanus persicus Lotfalizadeh & Rasplus sp. nov. and Stenomalina delvarei Lotfalizadeh & Rasplus sp. nov. Anagyrus near alienus Japoshvili, 2002, Asitus sp., Cheiloneurus paralia (Walker, 1837), Echthroplexiella obscura (Hoffer, 1952), Neococcidencyrtus poutiersi (Mercet, 1922) (all Encyrtidae), Aprostocetus orithyia (Walker, 1839) (Eulophidae), Eupelmus phragmitis Erdös, 1955 (Eupelmidae), Aximopsis deserticola (Zerova, 2004) comb. nov., Tetramesa phragmitis (Erdös, 1952) and Tetramesa sp. (all Eurytomidae), Homoporus febriculosus (Girault, 1917) (Pteromalidae) and Torymus arundinis (Walker, 1833) (Torymidae) were also obtained from our laboratory rearing. Nine of these species are recorded for the first time from Iran.

Cephalopharyngeal Skeleton

Scanning electron microscopy documentation of all preimaginal stages of the lauxaniid species Minettia longipennis (Fabricius) is presented for the first time. Images of the following morphological structures of all larval instars are provided: pseudocephalon, antenna, maxillary palpus, facial mask, cirri, mouth hooks, ambulatory lobes, anterior and posterior spiracles. Illustrations of the cephalopharyngeal skeleton for all three instars in lateral, ventral and dorsal views are provided. All instars are clearly separable by morphological features. The first instar has unique modification of the facial mask and structure of the cephalopharyngeal skeleton. Second and third instars are similar in overall form and differ in details in structure of the mouthooks and anterior spiracles, and by the number of pharyngeal ridges.

AbstractThe life-cycle of Syphacia muris is described in primary infections of Wistar rats. The life-cycle of S. muris is completed within seven days and no moults were discovered inside the egg. Instead each of two moults were observed outside the egg up to 24 and 40 hours after infection, and TEM studies suggest a third moult occurs up to 64 hours. The development and maturation of the larval stages are described for the first time using both light and electron microscopy. Differences in the size and growth of female S. muris compared with previously published figures could be due to differences in the strains of rats used.
