Ecdysteroids in the larvae of Opogona sacchari （Bojer）, a invasive alien pest

In order to understand the composition and quantitative variation of ecdysteriods in the larvae of Opogona sacchari (Bojer), a invasive alien pest, we analyzed the larval ecdysteroid composition and titers in this pest. The main component of ecdysteriods in the larvae of O. sacchari is 20-hydroxyecdysone, and also there is a little 26-hydroxyecdysone. The titer of ecdysteriods in the larvae from the 1st instar to the 7th instar was gotten higher gradually compared on ng ecdyster-oid/larva, but no regularity could be found about the titer if compared on ng ecdysteroid/g avoirdupois. There was only one peak of ecdysteroids (0.5475 ng/larva) showed at day 2 during the developmental time of the 6th instar larvae. However, there were two peaks appearing during the developmental time of the 7th instar larvae , one peak (0.29415 ng/larva) at day 3, another (0.214 ng/larva) at day 5.

蔗扁蛾生物学及温度对发育的影响

蔗扁蛾Opogonasacchari(Bojer)是一种新入侵我国的食性复杂的观赏性植物的危险性害虫.在实验条件下观察了实验种群的生活史、发育历期、存活率、产卵量、寿命与温度的关系.结果表明温度明显影响发育.卵、幼虫、蛹和世代的发育起点分别为(11.2±3.54),(8.8±1.39),(10.97±1.40)和(11.1±1.8)℃.有效积温分别为75.4,729,206和876.5日度.在15,20,24,28,30和33℃,相对湿度75%条件下下卵历期13,7,4.3,4,5和5d.幼虫的存活率分别为38%,46%,37%,44%,40%和0,33℃下幼虫不能完成发育.幼虫发育期为(141.4±10.2),(63.4±2.4),(47.6±2.5),(32.9±1.9),(35.5±1.6)d.蛹的发育期为(44±3.7),(21.7±3.1),(15.1±2.1),(10.9±1.4)和(12.8±5.2)d.在上述温度下成虫平均寿命随温度升高而下降,雌成虫寿命为2.7～15.7d,雄成虫寿命为1.5～12.6d.     

Ecdysteroids in the pupae of Opogona sacchari （Bojer）, a new invasive alien pest

The banana moth Opogona sacchari (Bojer) of the family Hieroxestidae is a new invasive alien pest in China that originated from the moist tropical and sub- tropical areas of Africa[1]. So far, the pest has dispersed to many areas around the world includin…     

哈尔滨高粱田高粱蚜捕食性天敌昆虫群落结构研究

为明确高粱田中高粱蚜[Melanaphis sacchari(Zehntner)]捕食性天敌昆虫的群落结构,对高粱蚜捕食性天敌昆虫的种类及数量进行了调查.结果发现:哈尔滨高粱蚜捕食性天敌昆虫共11种,隶属4目5科,主要优势种为龟纹瓢虫(Propylea japonica)、异色瓢虫(Harmonia axyridis)、中华草蛉(Chrysopa sinica),是高粱蚜发生期的主要控制因素,物种均匀度、丰富度、多样性指数均表现为增加趋势,物种优势度、优势集中性均表现为降低趋势.
