Euagoras Plagiatus

	Euagoras Plagiatus ''Euagoras plagiatus'' is an Asian species of assassin bugs (insects in the family Reduviidae), in the subfamily Harpactorinae. It has been investigated as a potential biocontrol agent for '' Pterophorus lienigianus'' Z., which is a pest of eggplant ('' Solanum melongena'').

picture info	Assassin Bug The Reduviidae are a large cosmopolitan family of the order Hemiptera (true bugs). Among the Hemiptera and together with the Nabidae almost all species are terrestrial ambush predators: most other predatory Hemiptera are aquatic. The main examples of nonpredatory Reduviidae are some blood-sucking ectoparasites in the subfamily Triatominae. Though spectacular exceptions are known, most members of the family are fairly easily recognizable; they have a relatively narrow neck, sturdy build, and a formidable curved proboscis (sometimes called a rostrum). Large specimens should be handled with caution, if at all, because they sometimes defend themselves with a very painful stab from the proboscis. Taxonomy The Reduviidae are members of the suborder Heteroptera of the order Hemiptera. The family members are almost all predatory, except for a few blood-sucking species, some of which are important as disease vectors. About 7000 species have been described, in more than 20 recognized subfa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
picture info	Harpactorinae The Harpactorinae are a large subfamily of the Reduviidae (assassin bugs). About 300 genera and 2,000 species worldwide have been described. Some of the species of the genera ''Zelus (bug), Zelus'', ''Pselliopus'', ''Sinea'', and ''Apiomerus'' are of interest as biological pest control agents. Tribes and genera The genera of six Tribe (biology), tribes include: Apiomerini New World resin bugs: auth.

	Pterophorus Lienigianus ''Hellinsia lienigianus'' is a moth of the family Pterophoridae which inhabits coastal areas, dry pastures and waste ground and is found in Africa, Asia, Australia and Europe. Also known as the mugwort plume it was first described by Philipp Christoph Zeller in 1852. Description The wingspan is . Adults are on wing in July in Great Britain. The colour of the larvae vary from green to brown, and have sparse tufts of white hair along each side. They feed on various Asteraceae species, including mugwort (''Artemisia vulgaris''), sea wormwood ('' Artemisia maritima''), Korean wormwood (''Artemisia princeps''), florist's daisy ('' Chrysanthemum morifolium''), tansy ('' Tanacetum vulgare''), common cocklebur ('' Xanthium strumarium''), saltmarsh fleabane (''Pluchea purpurascens''), oxeye daisy (''Leucanthemum vulgare'') and ''Aspilia latifolia''. They form a silken tent-shaped shelter on a leaf, within which it feeds before moving onto another leaf. Distribution ''Hellinsia lie ...

picture info	Solanum Melongena Eggplant ( US, Canada), aubergine ( UK, Ireland) or brinjal (Indian subcontinent, Singapore, Malaysia, South Africa) is a plant species in the nightshade family Solanaceae. ''Solanum melongena'' is grown worldwide for its edible fruit. Most commonly purple, the spongy, absorbent fruit is used in several cuisines. Typically used as a vegetable in cooking, it is a berry by botanical definition. As a member of the genus ''Solanum'', it is related to the tomato, chili pepper, and potato, although those are of the New World while the eggplant is of the Old World. Like the tomato, its skin and seeds can be eaten, but, like the potato, it is usually eaten cooked. Eggplant is nutritionally low in macronutrient and micronutrient content, but the capability of the fruit to absorb oils and flavors into its flesh through cooking expands its use in the culinary arts. It was originally domesticated from the wild nightshade species ''thorn'' or ''bitter apple'', '' S. incanum'',Tsao and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
