Wireworms are the larvae (immatures) of click beetles. Adults are elongate, slender, hardshelled beetles that take their name from their habit of flipping into the air (sometimes with an audible clicking sound) when they are placed on their backs. This fact sheet reviews the management of wireworms.

Bee viral ecology is a fascinating emerging area of research: viruses exert a range of effects on their hosts, exacerbate the impacts of other environmental stressors, and, importantly, are readily shared across multiple bee species in a community. However, our understanding of bee viral communities is limited, as it is primarily derived from studies of North American and European Apis mellifera populations. Here, we examined viruses in populations of A. mellifera and 11 other bee species from 9 countries, across 5 continents and Oceania. We developed a novel pipeline to rapidly, inexpensively, and robustly screen for bee viruses. This pipeline …

Hart Prairie Preserve Site Visit To Assess Aspen Health Nature Conservancy, Flagstaff, Az, Amanda Grady
Aspen Bibliography
On June 11, 2018, Amanda Grady, Entomologist, Arizona Zone, Forest Health Protection, performed a site visit to evaluate aspen health on the Nature Conservancy lands at Heart Prairie Preserve (HPP) near Flagstaff. Specifically, the evaluation was to determine whether or not the aspen within exclosures on Fern Mountain have symptoms or signs of Oystershell scale (OSS), an emergent forest pest contributing to aspen decline in northern Arizona.
Supplementary Studies On The Systematics Of The Genus Perdita (Hymenoptera, Andrenidae) Part Ll, P. H. Timberlake
Supplementary Studies On The Systematics Of The Genus Perdita (Hymenoptera, Andrenidae) Part Ll, P. H. Timberlake
All PIRU Publications
This is the second part of a study (1971) that is supplementary to my revision of the genus Perdita (1954, 1956, 1958, 1960, 1962, 1964, 1968). Herein are treated some 57 species, of which 44 are described as new and the synonymy of three species is given. New keys are provided for the subgenera Macroteropsis, Epimacrotera, Cockerellula, and the Octomaculata Group and Sphaeralceae Group of the subgenus Perdita. The key to Macroteropsis is new for the females of that group, that for Epimacrotera is a revision of the key in Part III (1958). The key to Cockerellula is …

Since or during the completion of my work on the monographic revision of the genus Perdita, published in seven parts (University of California Publications in Entomology 9:345-432, 11:247-350; 14:303-410, 17:1-156, 28:1-124, 28:125-388, 49: 1-196), much new material has accumulated or has been submitted for study and identification. As a result, I have found it necessary to present this supplementary study, and it is expected that other parts may follow, as the topic is far from exhaustion.
In this part some 64 species are treated, of which 32 are thought to be new, and renewed study has revealed new synonymy …

A Revisional Study Of The Bees Of The Genus Perdita F. Smith, With Special Reference To The Fauna Of The Pacific Coast (Hymenoptera, Apoidea) Part Vll (Including Index To Parts L To Vll), P. H. Timberlake
All PIRU Publications
In the preceding parts of this revision all the groups of the genus Perdita have been tabulated and the species described in more or less detail, with only a few omissions of previously known forms. In this supplementary part many more species are added and the omissions have been rectified. A bibliography of the genus, an index to all trivial names and corrigenda for preceding parts are added.
