Knowledge on biodiversity is fundamental for conservation strategies. The Brazilian Pampa region, located in subtropical southern Brazil, neglected terms of conservation, and knowledge its fragmented. We aim to answer the question: how many, which, species occur Pampa? In a collaborative effort, we built lists plants, animals, bacteria, fungi that Pampa. included information distribution patterns, main habitat types, status. Our study resulted referenced totaling 12,503 (12,854 taxa, when...
Interaction between Musca domestica L. and its predator Muscina stabulans (Fallén) (Diptera, Muscidae): Effects of prey density food source abundance. The objective this work was to evaluate the influence abundance on predatory behavior over M. domestica. Three predator/prey proportions were evaluated (1:1, 1:3 1:6), using 100 third instar larvae against second larvae. Each proportion maintained three different levels substrate (25, 50 g). experiments carried out in triplicate BOD incubators...
A reprodução e a sobrevivência de Synthesiomyia nudiseta (Wulp, 1883) foram estudadas entre 22 28ºC, UR 70% fotoperíodo 12h. Os dados analisados através classes idade, tabelas vida fecundidade, análise pela distribuição Weibull das curvas do conceito entropia (H). taxa intrínseca aumento natural (r m), finita (lambda), líquida (R0) tempo médio uma geração (T) 0,534; 1,7; 59,439 7,65 respectivamente, sugerindo rápido crescimento populacional nestas condições. Isso foi causado alta confirmando...

This compilation is the result of identification material recently collected from Southern Brazil. Forty-one new records Phoridae are recorded for state Rio Grande do Sul, and species Eibsfeldtphora cumsaltensis Disney 2009, Megaselia (M.) gracilipalpis Borgmeier 1969, (Aphiochaeta) latimanus (Malloch, 1914), Melaloncha curvata Brown, 2005, Trophodeinus vicinus (Borgmeier, 1963) first time in Species distributed 18 genera 3 subfamilies. The total known diversity phorids augmented 10 to 51...
Bradysia species are major insect pests of protected production systems, including strawberry crops in semi-hydroponic systems. In Brazil, its management is difficult due to the absence available effective pesticides. The aim this study was evaluate predatory efficiency two mites (Stratiolaelaps scimitus and Cosmolaelaps brevistilis) under laboratory conditions. experiments were conducted at 25 ± 1ºC, 75 10% RH, dark. first bioassay predation potential each mite species, one female per...
Iberian pigs are raised in Spain extensive, free-ranging systems which males and females gonadectomized to avoid several management problems. However, the new animal welfare regulations restrict female surgical sterilization. The objective of present study was develop a feasible immunocastration protocol prevent oestrus cyclicity from pre-pubertal period until slaughter, typically performed extensively reared that older have higher weight. This early protocol, with no need for separation...
To evaluate the population fluctuation of Coleoptera from a poultry farm in Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, two sampling methods were used: tube-type trap and sandwich trap. The analyses polynomial regression applied independent type method used. experiment was carried out for twelve months, April 2002 to March 2003, broiler barn aviary at Conjunto Agrotécnico Visconde da Graça/UFPEL. A total 43.945 Coleopterans captured following species: Alphitobius diaperinus, Carcinops troglodytes,...
ABSTRACT: Soilless cultivation of strawberry is in expansion Brazil due to factors like the reduction phytosanitary problems and possibility extending crop period, as well ergonometric facility for management culture. However, black fungus gnats (Sciaridae, Diptera) are ubiquitous pests greenhouse production system, causing direct indirect damage plants. ThIS study evaluated occurrence species semi-hydroponic identify species, describe symptoms infested The research was developed commercial...
Lycoriella species (Sciaridae) are responsible for significant economic losses in greenhouse production (e.g. mushrooms, strawberry, and nurseries). Current distributions of the genus restricted to cold-climate countries. Three particular concern view their ability invade across Northern Hemisphere. We used ecological niche models determine potential range expansion under climate change future scenarios (RCP 4.5 RCP 8.5) these Lycoriella. Stable suitability was a dominant theme species;...
Here we provide the first record of Ceriomydas crassipes (Westwood, 1841) from state Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Previously, this species was recorded only in southeastern Brazilian states São Paulo, de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo. Therefore, extends range C. further south to include southernmost

Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Berliner has potential for use in insect management. Its can be an alternative the management of Bradysia aff. ocellaris (Comstock), considered one main strawberry pests a soilless system. Therefore, objective this work was to evaluate toxicity different bacteria on B. laboratory and greenhouse bioassays. The following isolates were used experiments: circulans (Bc), var. oswaldo cruzi (Bto) or israelensis (Bti) kurstaki (Btk) In laboratory, larvae showed high...
