• W143320354 abstract "The life cycle of Acropteroxys gracilis (Newman), a languriid associate of common ragweed, Ambrosia artemisiifolia L., was studied. Adults began appearing in late May and were most abundant during mid-June. A single egg was deposited per stem, usually in the basal third of the stem and the larva tunneled and fed upon the pith. The fully-grown larva overwintered in a state of temperature-induced quiescence within the stem. Pupation usually occurred during early May in the excavated stem. The beetle is univoltine in northeastern Ohio. The egg, larvae, and pupa of A. gracilis are described and/or illustrated for the first time. OHIO J. SCI. 78(6): 304, 1978 The entomofaunas of many important North American weeds have been inadequately investigated, including those of common ragweed, Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. (Compositae), a serious agricultural pest and well-known aeroallergenic pollen-producer responsible for late summer and fall hayfever throughout much of the United States (Natl. Acad. Sci. 1968, Wodehouse 1971). In northeastern Ohio, ragweed is attacked by a diverse assemblage of phytophagous insects, including many Coleoptera whose biologies are poorly known. Piper (1975, 1977) has presented accounts of the bionomics of several A. artemisiifolia feeding beetles. The present paper describes the results of a study elucidating the life history of the languriid, Acropteroxys gracilis (Newman), a pith-feeding member of this beetle complex. The genus Acropteroxys Gorham contains two Neotropical species, one Nearctic species, and one species which has both a Neotropical and Nearctic distribution (P. Vaurie, per. comm.). The two. widely distributed North American species, A. gracilis and A. lecontei Manuscript received 27 June 1977 and in revised form 26 October 1977'(#77-49).

(Crotch), originally were placed in the languriid genus Languria Latreille but were subsequently transferred to the genus Acropteroxys by Schaeffer (1904). The adult taxonomy of the genus is relatively well understood, but information on the biologies and immature stages of all species is virtually nonexistent. Vaurie (1948) reviewed the genus in North America and provided adult descriptions, distributional, and host plant data. Chittenden (1890) reported the occurrence of A. gracilis larvae in stems of the composites Ambrosia trifida L. and Erigeron spp., and the nettle Urtica dioica L. Blatchley (1910) also noted the species on ragweed in Indiana. MATERIALS AND METHODS Field observations on the biology of A. gracilis were made in or near the city of Kent (Portage County) in northeastern Ohio. Adults either were collected individually in small vials or swept from ragweed plants by nets. Stems of the ragweed were dissected to obtain eggs, larvae, and pupae. The laboratory rearing techniques employed were similar to those previously described by Piper (1975). All rearings were maintained at 20°-25°C, 50-60% relative humidity, and a 12 hr light: 12 hr dark regime." @default.
