Seasonal Flight Patterns of Hemiptera in a North Carolina Black Walnut Plantation. 6. Tingidae and Aradidae

The seasonal flight patterns of II species of Tingidae and six species of Aradidae collected in window traps in a North Carolina black walnut plantation are described. Flying height distributions and seasonal flight activities of Corythucha ciliata (Say) and Gargaphia solani Heidemann are considered in detail

Supersonic-combustion rocket

A supersonic combustion rocket is provided in which a small rocket motor is substituted for heavy turbo pumps in a conventional rocket engine. The substitution results in a substantial reduction in rocket engine weight. The flame emanating from the small rocket motor can act to ignite non-hypergolic fuels

Seasonal Flight Patterns of Hemiptera (Excluding Miridae) in a Southern Illinois Black Walnut Plantation

The seasonal flight patterns of 99 species and subspecies of Hemiptera collected in window traps in a southern Illinois black walnut plantation are compared with similar data from a North Carolina black walnut plantation. Flying height distributions and seasonal flight activities of Corythucha juglandis, Orius insidiosus, Piesma cinerea, Acanthocephala terminalis, Alydus eurinus, Sehirus cinctus cinctus, Acrosternum hilare, Brochymena quadripustutata, Euschistus servus, and Euschistus variolarius are considered in detail

Annotated Bibliography of the Ambrosia Beetle \u3ci\u3eXylosandrus Germanus\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Scolytidae)

(excerpt) Xylosandrus germanus (Blandford) (= Xyleborus germanus) is an ambrosia beetle that is found in Japan, Korea, the KurU Islands, Vietnam, China, Taiwan, central Europe, and the Cnited States (Nobuchi 1981). It attacks apparently healthy plants and those that are dying or recently dead (Weber 1982). Kaneko (1967) reported X. germanus to be a serious pest on tea (Thea sp.) plants in Japan, and Heidenreich (1%0) reported it on oak (Quercus sp.) trees in Gennany. This beetle seems to be increasing in economic importance on black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) and other hardwood species in the U.S. (Weber 1982)

The Distribution of \u3ci\u3eXylosandrus Germanus\u3c/i\u3e in America North of Mexico (Coleoptera: Scolytidae)

Xylosandrus gemzanus (Blandford) (= Xyleborlus germanus), a sexually dimorphic beetle. was first described in 1894 from specimens collected in Japan; it is now also known from Korea. the Kuril Islands, Vietnam, China, Taiwan, central Europe, and the U.S. ( Sobuchi 1981)

Seasonal Flight Patterns of Miridae (Hemiptera) in a Southern Illinois Black Walnut Plantation

The seasonal flight patterns of 92 species of Miridae collected in window traps in a southern Illinois black walnut plantation are compared with similar data from a North Carolina black walnut plantation. Flying height distributions and seasonal flight activities of Amblytylus nasutus, Deraeocoris nebulosus, Leptopterna dolabrata, Lopidea heidemanni, Lygus lineolaris, and Plagiognathus politus are considered in detail. Six species are newly recorded for Illinois

Regge Behaviour from an Environmentally Friendly Renormalization Group

The asymptotic behaviour of cubic field theories is investigated in the Regge limit using the techniques of environmentally friendly renormalization, environmentally friendly in the present context meaning asymmetric in its momentum dependence. In particular we consider the crossover between large and small energies at fixed momentum transfer for a model scalar theory of the type phi^2 psi. The asymptotic forms of the crossover scaling functions are exhibited for all two particle scattering processes in this channel to one loop in a renormalization group improved perturbation theory.Comment: 9 pages text, one figure, LaTeX, uses psfig.sty. Revised version submitted to Phys. Lett. B., besides minor changes a figure to illustrate the conventions and a discussion of the full crossover function have been adde
