摘要:

Some aspects of the biology of four West African capsid pests of Cocoa,Distantiella theobroma(Distant),Sahlbergella singularisHaglund,Bryocoropsis laticollisSchumacher andHelopeltis corbisieriSchmitz (Miridae: Heteroptera) are briefly summarized. Their immature stages are described and sketched in detail. Keys to distinguish all the larval stages are given and the techniques for rearing them reviewed. The systematics of Bryocorinae is discussed.

摘要:

Two new species of aeolid, a new genus being created for one of them, are described along with another two species, onePhidiana militaris(Alder&Hancock) (=Learchis militaris) a new record for New Zealand, the other,Glaucus atlanticus, found only once before.Jason mirabilisgen. et sp. nov. is distinguished by a ventral tongue‐like process with a ridged chitinous covering which replaces the radula (still present but vestigial) and by the greatly subdivided rhinophoral lamellae.Babaina caprinsulensissp. nov. differs from its Californian relative in having papillate rhinophores. The New Zealand specimens ofPhidiana militarisdiffer slightly in colouration from those described for elsewhere in the Indo‐Pacific.The Glaucidae is enlarged to include the Babainidae, Facelinidae and Favorinidae, the main familial characteristics being the simple oral glands, sharp radular tooth and pugnacious behaviour. Possible evolutionary trends within the family based on the arrangement of the cerata and penial structure are traced out. The Babaininae, pleuroproctic with a notal ridge and irregular disposition of the cerata, is considered the most primitive subfamily and the Hervellinae, with cerata in single rows, the most advanced. The many facelinid genera previously recognized are reduced to two,AntionettaSchmekel andPhidianaG

摘要:

Eleven species of the opisthobranch order Aplysiomorpha collected from East Africa and neighbouring parts of the Indian Ocean are described. Three of the species are new to science. The nineteen species of Aplysiomorpha which are reliably reported from the Indian Ocean are listed, together with a key for their identification.
