Estrutura da diversidade de Braconidade(Hymenoptera) em duas reservas de Mata Atlântica.
(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2019-03-01) Coutinho, Caroline Ferreira; Aguiar, Alexandre Pires; Azevedo, Celso Oliveira; Alencar, Isabel de Conte Carvalho de
A comparative study of Braconidae (Hymenoptera) was conducted in two reserves in the Atlantic Forest, the Reserva Biológica Augusto Ruschi (RBAR) and Reserva Biológica de Duas Bocas (RBDB). Sampling was performed along a full annual cycle, using Malaise and Moericke traps. A total of 17 subfamilies were investigated, representing 3421 specimens and 403 species. Abundance, richness, diversity, faunistic similarity and, to a lesser degree, seasonality, were comparatively investigated between reserves and types of vegetation (i.e., Primary vs. Secondary forests). Abundance structure was similar between Reserves and between types of vegetation. Species richness was highest for RBAR (321 vs. 287 for RBDB), but the diversity in RBDB was highest if considering both traps pooled together. Faunistic similarity between the reserves was only 39%, with 40-46% of exclusive species in each of them. At nearly all levels of analysis, MP and MS were dissimilar, with MP showing higher values. Most species were collected during spring, but there was significant changes in species composition through the seasons. The results suggest that the observed structure of Braconidae biodiversity may represent a more generalized phenomenon in fragments of Atlantic forest.

Revisão cladística e taxonômica de Messatoporus Cushman (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Cryptinae), com descrição de sessenta e cinco espécies novas
(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2011-02-25) Santos, Bernardo Ferreira dos; Aguiar, Alexandre Pires; Azevedo, Celso Oliveira; Tavares, Marcelo Teixeira
The large Neotropical and Nearctic genus Messatoporus Cushman is diagnosed, described, and its species revised. A total of 91 valid species are recognized, of which 67 are described as new. Messatoporus jocosus (Provancher) and M. rufiventrisCushman are recognized as junior synonyms of M. discoidalis (Cresson), a mostly Nearctic species with a high level of color variation. Messatoporus tricolor (Széligeti) is proposed as a synonym of M. variegatus (Szépligeti). Messatoporus nigrispinus(Cameron) is transferred to Prosthoporus Porter.A taxonomic key for species based on both sexes is presented. All valid species were described or redescribed and illustrated. New distribution records and distribution maps are provided. The validity and relationships of the genus are cladistically investigated using 162 morphological characters in a matrix with 25 species of Messatoporus and 105 outgroup taxa. Tree search was conducted using implied weighting, with values of 1–6 for the concavity constant (K). All analysis recovered Messatoporus as a monophyletic group, supported by 7–11 synapomorphies. The results also support the monophyly of the five evaluated genera of Osprynchotina, in a clade including also Dotocryptus Brèthes. According to the present redefinition, Messatoporus is diagnosed by apicolateral corners of clypeus projected; mandible long and tapered, ventral tooth much shorter than dorsal one or indistinct; transverse sulcus at base of propodeum long and shallow; anterior margin of propodeum concave; posterior area of propodeum almost always transversely wrinkled; spiracle at first abdominal tergite placed approximately at midlength; median dorsal carina absent; ovipositor basally cylindrical, apically depressed, with ventral valve enclosing completely dorsal valve as a sheath. A second analysis including all species of the genus was performed to evaluate the phylogeny at genus level. The character set for that analysis included 104 characters considered of phylogenetic importance within the genus, and used the same tree searching protocol than the first one. A distinct and gradual transition is detected, from species more similar to the remaining Osprynchotina to a significantly different morphotype with several convergences with the Gabuniina. These convergences are interpreted as adaptations to host location and substrate perforation, and may be related to use of more deeply concealed hosts. Because of the gradual nature of the pattern of morphological modification, and because the topology recovered does not allow the separation of the species in more than one distinctly recognizable monohyletic group, the division of
Revisão de Miobantia Giglio-Tos (Mantodea, Thespidae, Miopterynae), com associação molecular de sexos dimórficos e estágios imaturos, e descrição de quatro espécies novas
(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2013-02-27) Araújo, Marcus Vinícius Scherrer de; Aguiar, Alexandre Pires; Silva, Victor Athayde de; Azevedo, Celso Oliveira
The Neotropical praying mantis genus Miobantia Giglio-Tos includes six species with a complex taxonomic history. Although frequently found in the Atlantic Forest, little is known about these species and some obstacles make it difficult identifying these mantids, as the high sexual dimorphism and both sexes known only to one of the six species. This work investigates the taxonomic limits of the species of Miobantia through a cladistic analysis using 99 morphological characters, and sequencing of 700 bp of the mithocondrial gene COI for association of dimorphic sexes and nymphs. An investigation of intraspecific variation is also conducted based on a large number of specimens of M. fuscata (Giglio-Tos) to choose more relevant features for separation of the species to be used in taxonomic comments and identification keys. The male of M. aptera Giglio-Tos, and the females of M. ciliata (Stål) and M. fuscata are described for the first time, and redescription of the males of these and the female of M. aptera are provided based on much complementary data. Miobantianebulosa (Giglio-Tos) is proposed as a junior synonym of M. rustica (Fabr.), based on comparison of the types, including investigation of the male genitalia, and the species is redescribed. Additionally, four new species are here described: M. sp. nov. 1 sp. nov., M. sp. nov. 2 sp. nov., M. sp. nov. 3 sp. nov., and M. sp. nov. 4 sp. nov.; both sexes are described, except only for the male of M. sp. nov. 2. Identification keys are provided for males and females of all valid species, and figures of diagnostic features are provided for all of them. The species distribution is mapped according to literature data and 50 new records
Revisão de Toechorychus Townes (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Cryptinae)

The Neotropical Toechorychus Townes is revised, cladistically defined and diagnosed; a total of 302 specimens from 14 depositories were examined; 40 species are recognized, 35 of which are described as new: T. sp. nov. 1, T. sp. nov. 2, T. sp. nov. 3, T. sp. nov. 4, T. sp. nov. 5, T. sp.nov. 6, T. sp. nov. 7, T. sp. nov. 8, T. sp. nov. 9, T. sp. nov. 10, T. sp. nov. 11, T. sp. nov. 12, T. sp. nov.13, T. sp. nov. 14, T. sp. nov.15, T. sp. nov.16, T. sp. nov.17, T. sp. nov.18, T. sp.nov. 19, T. sp. nov. 20, T. sp. nov. 21, T. sp. nov.22, T. sp. nov. 23, T. sp. nov.24, T. sp. nov. 25, T. sp. nov. 26, T. sp. nov. 27, T. sp. nov. 28, T. sp. nov. 29, T. sp. nov.30, T. sp. nov.31, T.sp. nov. 32, T. sp. nov. 33, T. sp. nov.34, T. sp. nov. 35. The other valid species are: T. abactus(Cresson), T. albimaculatus (Taschenberg), T. brevicaudis (Szépligeti), T. cassunungae (Brauns), T. stramineus (Taschenberg). The genus can be recognized by epicnemial carina usually not reaching more than 0.3 of distance to subtegular ridge; apical V-shaped sulcus at dorsal valve of ovipositor, anteriorly to apical teeth of ventral valve; subapical compression at ovipositor anteriorly to apical teeth of ventral valve; ovipositor sheath about 0.1 as long as hind tibia; and dorsal margin of pronotum strongly swollen. A key and descriptions are provided to all valid species, and cladistic analysis is provided, as well as illustrations and distributions. Published host records were compiled, and three new records are provided, as follows: T. albimaculatus is a parasitoid of Mischocyttarusdrewseni (Saussure) (Vespidae, Polistinae) new record; T. stramineus is a parasitoid of M. basimacula (Cameron) new record; and T.sp. nov. 25 is a parasitoid of M. collarellus Richards new record. A Neotype is designated for T. cassunungae. The genus is probably more closely related to Lymeon Förster and Acerastes Cushman
