Phratora Californica
Phratora is a genus of leaf beetles. It is synonymous to ''Phyllodecta'' . European ''Phratora'' species can be distinguished based on morphology of female genitalia., but they differ little in size and body form and most show metallic coloration. Distribution ''Phratora'' species are found in the Northern Hemisphere in areas that tend to be cool and moist where their host plants thrive. They are usually found in Northern and Southern Europe, China and Japan, and in Canada and the United States of America. Host plants Species in this genus are of considerable interest to evolutionary ecology researchers because they vary with respect to host plant preference and chemistry of their larval defensive secretions. ''Phratora'' species are known to feed on willows ('' Phratora americana, P. frosti, P. interstitialis, P. tibialis, Phratora vitellinae, Phratora vulgatissima, P. polaris, P. purpurea''), poplars (''Phratora laticollis, P. atrovirens, Phratora vitellinae, P. pu ...

Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat
Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat was a French entomologist, born 29 March 1799 in Paris and died 16 December 1884 in Paris. In government service in Paris, this amateur entomologist studied mainly beetles and birds. He published nearly 250 notes and papers and was the author of more than 2,000 species. He was one of the founders of the Société entomologique de France in 1832. On his death, his collection was dispersed. Part of his collection is now in the Natural History Museum in London along with some manuscripts. Works (Selection) * 1833a. Description de Buprestis analis. ''Magasin de Zoologie'' 1833.

Phratora Tibialis
''Phratora tibialis'' is a species of leaf beetle found in Europe and parts of Asia. This beetle is found on willows (''Salix'' species) and the chemistry and production of its larval defensive secretions and host plant relationships have been studied extensively. Description This small (3.7–5 mm) beetle is similar and size and coloration to other species of ''Phratora''. Adults are typically metallic blue or green. In Europe, it is most likely to co-occur on Salix host species with ''Phratora vitellinae''. It is somewhat narrower in body shape than ''P. vitellinae''. This beetle is very similar in morphology and behavior to the Nordic species ''Phratora polaris'', as noted by Palmen, Steinhausen, Sundholm, and Köpf et al. (1996). For example, the female genitalia of ''P. tibialis,'' (which can be examined with live beetles when moderate pressure is applied to the abdomen under the dissecting scope), closely resemble those of ''P. polaris''. Eggs are typically laid in clutc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Phratora Purpurea
''Phratora purpurea'', the aspen skeletonizer, is a species of leaf beetle in the family Chrysomelidae. It is found across North America, including Maryland, New York, Ontario, British Columbia, and the Northwest Territories. It feeds on willows and poplars (''Populus tremuloides'', ''Populus grandidentata'', ''Populus balsamifera'', and '' Salix fragilis''), and is deep purple or coppery red in color. Cavey (1994) provided detailed notes on the life history of populations of ''Phratora purpurea subsp. purpurea'' in Maryland. These notes describe life history patterns that have also been observed in other ''Phratora'' species. Adults emerged from overwintering in spring and were actively mating and laying eggs in mid-June. They disappear as eggs and larvae appear. Eggs are laid in clutches of 6–15, arranged in two rows on the underside of host plant leaves (in this case ''P. grandidentata''). When larvae hatch, they feed in groups side by side in a single row during their first ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Phratora Polaris
''Phratora polaris'' is a species of leaf beetle found in the Nordic regions of Europe., occasionally in Scotland, and Iceland. Some authors have recorded it in central Europe, especially in the Alps. Historically, this species has occurred in Greenland. This beetle is found on willow (''Salix'') species in the southern part of its range. Populations in Lapland feed on birch. Description This small (3.7–5 mm) beetle is similar in size and shape to other species of ''Phratora''. Willow-feeding adults are typically metallic blue or green, but birch feeding populations are metallic dark brown Larvae are dark to black and pupae are pale. Distribution and range ''Phratora polaris'' occurs in the Nordic regions of Europe, occasionally in Scotland, and Iceland. It has also been recorded in the eastern Alps. and in Germany. Habitat and host plants ''Phratora polaris'' is the only ''Phratora'' species known to feed on host plants in two different plant families (Salicaceae) and (Betula ...
